"Crazy I'm not crazy... they're crazy not me I know what I'm talking about." Sam muttered as she stomped home. "Although you aren't helping Danny." She called looking around.
Her eyes fell on the old City Hall, it was left untouched by human hands. No one went in there, but Sam wanted to. She walked casually towards it and slipped in through the door hanging off of it's hinges. She strolled around and went to the large main room.
She walked over and picked up the broken green chains on the floor, they had lost their glow. Her suit was still sitting in a pile on the floor and the glass was still spread around the room. There were claw marks from Wulf and blood from Danny. She really couldn't believe that they were here together only a month ago, that those were one of their last moments together.
She wondered if she should've said something, was the fear really worth all this regret? He probably wouldn't have cared if she admitted to it he probably would understand and wouldn't hate her. She realized that she was always overreacting.
"Oh Danny I messed up..." She whispered.
She got up from her kneeling position and was about to leave when she saw a case knocked over. There she saw a single glittering gem, it was red and was all to familar to the goth. Her first instinct was to reach down and grab it, but something told her to touch it would be bad.
So instead she used a piece of cloth from a curtain and picked it up and stared at it. She remembered it all too well,
"The gem of life..." Sam whispered.
She looked around to see if there were any more. There weren't. Sam couldn't stick around much longer her parents might wonder where she was.
Sam was making her way home through the black cloak of the night, she felt uneasy and incomplete. The wind blew around her forcing her to huddle in her swearshirt.
Her home was still empty when she got home, although she couldn't feel surprised. She changed back into an older outfit, her black and purple mid drift and black and green plaid skirt with purple tights.
She looked in her mirror and faked a smile. "You look the same again Sam."
She made sure to put the gem back into her skirt pocket. She felt like something wasn't right as she returned back into her room. Sam stared around her violet eyes scanning each area carefully. She looked down at the carpet feeling as though she'd gotten her hopes up over nothing, again.
"Too soon huh?" A voice asked.
Sam looked up and saw the most bright pair of green eyes staring at her through snow white bangs. She backed up into the wall fearfully, she always dreamed he'd come back but it was more frightening than she previously imagined. Was she really losing it like Tucker and Jazz seemed to believe. She'd been so strong in proving he'd come back, but now that he was here she started to doubt herself.
"Da...Danny?" She stammered.
He looked at her and smiled his green eyes didn't seem the same to her. "Ye...Ye...Yes." He stuttered jokingly.
"Is it really you?" Sam asked slowly reaching her hand out to touch his hand. "Are you here?"
"Depends, are you here?"
"It is you!" She exclaimed falling into his arms, she'd recognize his strange sense of humor anywhere. "I can't believe it everyone said I was wrong, but you're back you're really back!"
"Yup back." He said happily.
"You seem different." Sam muttered while resting her chin on his shoulder.
"You would be too if you died." He replied calmly, almost too calmly.
Danny pulled away but held Sam's hands. He let her stare at him with those two bright violet eyes that sparkled tears of joy. He smiled gently then cleared his throat.
"Sam will you come with me, I want to take you somewhere?" He cooed holding her hands.
"I'd follow you anywhere Danny..." Sam whispered staring back into his eyes.
"That's great." He smiled.
"Should we tell Tucker or Jazz?" Sam asked.
"And why?" He stated holding her chin. "So they can call you crazy and trample you're ideas? No just come with me Sam..."
"Anywhere you please Danny." She replied deeply.
She put her arm around his ghostly shoulder and he put an arm around her waist. Bending his knees he brought them into the air and phased through the walls. They floated along through the night air, Sam never felt more happy in all her life. She had to wonder where he was taking her, what was so important? But he stayed silent and stern the whole time.
Finally the Fenton Works sign came into view and she looked quizically at her ghostly friend. He didn't look her way and phased them down into the basement. He gently let Sam stand on her tow feet infront of the swirling vortex of the portal to the ghost zone.
"Danny why are we here?" She asked looking into the green and black abyss.
"Come with me Sam..." He crooned staring hard into her eyes. "Follow me there..."
"Anywhere..."Sam replied bedazzled.
Phantom smirked and grabbed a hold of the girl and took her towards the ghost realm.
Girl, just look into my eyes,
you're starting to feel hypnotized...
Emralds, cobras, dreams of dying,
feelings that there's no describing.
Forget all you know and come to me (right now)
Mesmerized by fires of hell,
now you are under my spell
Come closer and take my hand
you are now at my command
Everything is spinning as you fall into a trance...
Voodoo power
Feel your will draining away,
you didn't want it anyway
Leave them all behind and don't look back,
into my coffin cadillac
A possession of your soul,
you hear only the devil's call in your
trance, trance, trance, trance...
