"Hey losers!" Dash exclaimed as he walked up to Sam and Tucker. "Where's Fen-toad? I wanna—why are you crying?" He continued callously, furrowing his eyebrows when he saw the tear tracks on their faces.
"He's in the hospital Dash, accidentally got into one of his parents experiments last night and it blew up in has face, literally. He's in critical condition." Sam snarled, more tears leaking from her lilac eyes.
"Oh, well that sucks. Hey! Maybe he could go as a ghost for halloween!" Dash joked, and he walked back over to his friends as Sam narrowed her eyes.
"Well, I suddenly don't feel so bad about this." Danny growled from next to Tucker, making the boy jump nearly three feet in the air. "C'mon, how much longer till I'm announced dead? I wanna get on with the haunting."
"Once we're in class, Lancer needs to know so he doesn't think you're skipping, and so we can be excused to record everything." Sam said, her tone switching from patient to delighted at the last part.
"Fine." Danny grumbled, then fell silent.
Sam and Tucker did their best to keep straight faces on their way to english class, but both had to duck into the restroom once to laugh quietly.
"Ahh, Miss Manson, Mister Foley, glad you decided to show up on time today, though it seems Mister Fenton did not join you. Where is he?"
"He's, he's in the hospital Mr. Lancer, his parents would have called you but they're worried about them and it slipped their minds." Tucker mumbled, Mr. Lancer raised his eyebrow skeptically.
"And why is Mister Fenton in the hospital?" He asked, and Tucker was opening his mouth to respond when the phone on his desk rang.
"Who is it?" "Oh, Hello Miss Fenton" The silence rang for a minute as Jazz spoke, and when Lancer responded his voice was quiet and solemn. "I'm very sorry, of course I'll excuse them." He turned to Sam and Tucker, who had gotten the gist of the conversation and started to cry again.
"You are excused, I will inform the principal of this."
As soon as Sam and Tucker were out of the school they broke into fits of laughter.
"That went way better than I thought it would!" Tucker laughed, and Danny grinned as he appeared, the near constant spark of mischief in his eyes igniting and turning into a wildfire of chaos, he was going to enjoy this.
—Linebreak—
Will all students please report to the auditorium now. Principal Ishiyama's voice rang through the speakers, and the students glanced at each other in confusion.
"Wonder what's going on." Dash mumbled to Paulina as they got up from their seats and followed the throng of students to the auditorium. The morning's events still fresh in his mind. He had showed up to school, punched around a few nerds, chatted with his friends and then headed over to Fenton's locker for his daily beating. But when he got there Manson and Foley had told him Fenton was dying, and then there was that phone call from Fenton's (really cute) older sister that Mr. Lancer got, and Manson and Foley had left in tears. Now everyone was being called to the auditorium for an announcement, what was happening?
"I don't know, maybe it's got something to do with the losers, they were acting weird this morning, and I think one of the was missing." The Latina girl suggested, pulling out her compact.
"Yeah, Fenton wasn't there this morning." He affirmed, slipping into a seat.
"Students, I am sad to inform you that Daniel Fenton has passed away." Principal Ishiyama said when everyone had quieted down, and almost everyone's jaws dropped in shock.
Danny Fenton was dead? The kid who grew up in a house full of ectoplasm and other dangerous things, who took beatings that would have left many other people bedridden for at least a day like he had tripped and stubbed his toe?! It had been a while since anyone viewed him as a 'wimp' per say, and now he was dead. What?
"School will end early today, you will continue your classes as normal until lunch, then you are free to leave."
"Will there be a funeral for him?" Asked a, rather nervous, nerd who shared Danny's love of astronomy.
"Yes, I believe so, but I do not know when it will be." The principal said, and the student body nodded numbly, getting up and filing out of the auditorium.
Dash hung back for a second, still stunned. Fenton, was dead? His favorite punching bag was just… gone? He shook his head to clear it and made to get up, but a thin layer of ice was pinning his arms to the chair. A laugh echoed through the auditorium and a pair of glowing, ice blue eyes appeared next to Dash as the temperature of the room dropped.
"Hey Dash!" A voice said cheerfully, serving only to frighten him further. He screamed, bolted up from the chair and made his name quite fitting as he ran out of the auditorium. Danny laughed as Sam and Tucker exited their hiding spot and stopped recording.
"That was awesome!" Sam exclaimed, laughing so hard she was beginning to tear up.
"This is going to be the best halloween ever!" Danny said, with a grin so wide it nearly reached his ears, literally.
