Chapter 6: Phantoms Exposed

The Guys in White had placed the next phase of their operation into place. An agent of the organization the next day was sent to Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends to "adopt" the two ghost kids they were prepared to apprehend along with to "adopt" Blorg and Derg who were really two other agents that were ordered to infiltrate Foster's.

"I'm here" said the agent disguised as a simple man in a business suit on his cell phone, "what are my lines again?"

"Look" replied the head agent of the operation who was on the other line, "you are simply to ring the doorbell, ask this Mr. Herriman that you are to adopt a few imaginary friends. While you are trying to search for your perfect imaginary friends, you should really be searching for the two ghost kids along with getting our two boys that are already inside involved in the hunt. Is that clear enough for you?"

"I understand my mission" replied the agent in the business suit as he turned off his cell phone and pressed the doorbell.

"Can I help you?" asked Frankie as she answered the door.

"I'm looking for a few imaginary friends for my kid" replied the agent in the business suit, "is this Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends?"

"Why yes it is" replied Frankie then she showed him in, "come on in. Mr. Herriman is quite busy right now, but feel free to look around for that special imaginary friend or friends your kid would want to have."

"Thanks" said the agent wearing the business suit.

As the agent wearing the business suit began walking down the hallway, he began to search each room he came across. As he was searching the rooms for the two agents that were already in Foster's or for the two ghost kids, Mr. Herriman was hopping down the hallway and notice that there was something quite wrong.

"Excuse me sir, is there a problem I can help you with?" asked Mr. Herriman to the agent wearing the business suit.

"Uh, I'm looking for a few imaginary friends for my kid" replied the agent, "you see, my kid would just love to have an imaginary friend that has white hair, glowing green eyes and a black jumpsuit with a fancy D. My kid would also like an E.T. and Alien friend to go along with them."

"Ah, you must be talking about Blorg and Derg and Master Daniel Phantom and Miss Danielle Phantom" said Mr. Herriman then the rabbit signaled the agent to follow him, "come this way please."

"This seems too easy" said the agent wearing the business suit softly to himself.

While Mr. Herriman and the agent wearing the business suit were heading down the hallway and into the room where Bloo was trying to impress Danielle and Danny with some of his paddle ball moves that were not that to good, the agent wearing the business suit immediately spotted the two ghost kids that the Guys in White had been looking all over for.

"Ah, those are the two my kid wants to have" said the agent wearing business suit as he pointed to Danny and Danielle.

"Excellent choice" said Mr. Herriman, "Master Blooregard would go down in history in this house to finally have all the friends he rescued to be adopted on the same day."

"Go down in history?!" cried Bloo as he stopped showing off his poor paddle ball skills, "Well, I usually don't like to see my fellow imaginary friends be adopted, but in this case, okay."

"We have to do something or we are going to be adopted" whispered Danielle to Danny.

"Leave it to me" replied Danny as he whispered back to her.

"Miss Danielle" said Mr. Herriman as he notice Danny leaving the scene, "where is Master Daniel heading off to?"

"Uh, he's going to pack up his things and leave to be adopted" replied Danielle.

What Danny was really doing was trying to find the perfect spot to go invisible so that he could overshadow either Mr. Herriman or the man who wanted to adopt the two Phantoms. He had thought he found the perfect private place to go invisible, but as he went invisible and head off toward Mr. Herriman or the Guys in White agent, it accidentally happen as Eduardo, Wilt and Coco were coming into the scene.

"Did you see that?" asked Wilt as he noticed Danny vanished into thin air.

"Coco, Coco, Coco!" replied Coco.

"He must be a ghost who's going to scare me to death and then eat my ghost!" cried Eduardo.

"We have to tell somebody about this" said Wilt.

"Coco, Coco" said Coco.

"You eavesdropped on Mac's private talk with Goo?" asked Wilt, "I'm sure she could probably figure what is going on right here. Because if we tell the rest of the house about those two they're going to think that we're crazy or something like that."

While Wilt, Coco and Eduardo were trying to come up with a plan to expose the two Phantoms themselves, Danny was heading right toward Mr. Herriman and the agent wearing the business suit. Danny thought for a second which one to overshadow, so he decided to choose Mr. Herriman. He then leaped right into the rabbit's body, it felt weird for Danny to overshadow an imaginary friend like Mr. Herriman, but he managed to accomplish it.

"I'm sorry" said Danny while controlling Mr. Herriman to the agent wearing the business suit, "but adopting Danny or Danielle for that matter is out of the question."

"But a few minutes ago you said I could adopt them" said the agent wearing the business suit then the agent thought to himself, "hmm, something doesn't seem to be quite right here. Excuse me for a second."

"Come on Mr. H" begged Bloo as he approached the rabbit on his knees, "please have Danny and Danielle adopted. I want to really out rank Wilt. Please, it would mean so much to me."

"Danielle" whispered Danny as he leaned over while still in control of Mr. Herriman, "overshadow him."

"With pleasure" whispered Danielle.

"Hey, Master Blooregard" said Danny while controlling Mr. Herriman, "why don't you try and show us your paddle ball technique."

"Oh sure Mr. H that should be just enough time for that guy to come back and adopt Danny and Danielle" said Bloo.

As Bloo was about to pick up his paddle ball, Danielle quickly turned invisible and leaped inside Bloo's body and successfully overshadowed him.

"We're ready to be adopted Mr. H" said the two agents wearing the E.T. and Alien costumes as they came into the scene with the agent wearing the business suit.

"Hey, where are those two imaginary friends with the white hair, glowing green eyes, black jumpsuit and a fancy D on them?" asked the agent wearing the business suit.

"Uh, you mean Master Daniel and Miss Danielle?" asked Danny while controlling Mr. Herriman as sweat began to run down his forehead, "I don't know what you are talking about."

"Listen to me rabbit" said the agent wearing the business suit as his face came directly close toward his, "I at least know that the girl with the white hair and green eyes and all that other stuff I mention was just here a few minutes ago. You also stated I could adopt them and leave this house without incident. So where are they?"

"I actually changed my mind about having Danny and Danielle being adopted, I can out rank Wilt any other time of the day" replied Danielle while controlling Bloo.

"Say, that's something Bloo wouldn't say" said Wilt as he along with Eduardo and Coco came into the scene.

"Coco, Coco, Coco" said Coco.

"Something is sure fishy around here" said Eduardo agreeing with Coco.

"Uh, nothing is fishy around here Master Wilt" said Danny while controlling Mr. Herriman, "everything is peachy."

"Is there something wrong with your voices Mr. H and Bloo?" asked Wilt who became quite concern.

"Uh, nothing is wrong with us" replied Danielle as sweat began to appear on Bloo's forehead.

"Because I sure remember you really were proud of finding these two imaginary friends over here and those two other imaginary friends you found in the park" said Wilt, "you would surely never want to give up your glory of trying to get up to where I am. Would you?"

"They're on to us" whispered Danielle to Danny, "let's get out of here now."

"Well, it's been nice that you have come to Foster's, I think you would have a wonderful time adopting these two" said Danny while controlling Mr. Herriman referring to Blorg and Derg then Danny and Danielle were trying to leave the scene, "but I think it's better that we best be on our way."

"Get them!" cried the agent wearing the business suit.

"But that's against protocol" whispered the agent wearing the E.T. costume.

"Who cares, I think the two ghost kids overshadowed the rabbit and that blue creature" said the agent wearing the business suit, "if we don't take them in now, we'll never get them." Then the agent wearing the business suit pushed Wilt, Eduardo and Coco aside, "move aside, I think there's something quite fishy going on."

As Danny and Danielle were trying to run away from the three Guys in White agents, they were both getting quire tired using Mr. Herriman and Bloo's bodies. So instead they decided to abandon them and attempt to flee the scene. They flew through several hallways just trying to find their way out of the house, but suddenly the agent wearing the business suit caught up with them.

"Since my two fellow agents are not going to join me consider it would expose their presence," said the agent wearing the business suit, "I have decided to do this alone."

The agent took out an anti-ghost gun and began to fire at the two Phantoms. Danny fired a ghost beam knocking the gun from the agent's hand. Danielle then gave the agent a good punch knocking the agent unconscious.

"I hope no body saw that" said Danny.

"That was some fighting" said an old small midget woman who entered the scene, "you two didn't tell us you were imaginary superheroes, because we take in those to."

"I think she might be the owner of this place" whispered Danielle to Danny, "and I think we should come clean."

"Well" said Danny as he approached the old woman, "we're really not imaginary at all. We were mistaken to be imaginary friends by a real one. We didn't know this would get out of hand, we were just using this place as a temporary hideout."

"Well that's just great" said the old woman, "I'm Madame Foster and I run this place. Never in my years have I seen someone like you two take advantage."

Then she notices a government badge of some sort on the agent Danny and Danielle knocked out.

"Just what I need" said Madame Foster as she took out the wallet of the agent that was knocked out, "a government agent. Well, it seems like you two were certainly telling the truth for once instead of pretending something that you weren't."

"So what's going to happen to us?" asked Danielle.

"Be in Mr. Herriman's office" replied Madame Foster, "we'll deal with it from there."

"Yes ma'am" sighed both Danny and Danielle as they both headed to Mr. Herriman's office.

"Hmm, now what to do with someone like you?" asked Madame Foster as she studied the unconscious agent.
