Chapter 6: Backstory, flashback, disaster!
The green mist that surrounded the tower chocked her as she maneuvered her way through the fog. Dread clutched her stomach with each step she took. She had no idea how why she had that feeling. She was a ghost she shouldn't be feeling like that. Argh! How was she even dragged into this.
Oh, now she remembered it!
She remembered it like it was yesterday. Long back when she used to learn at Lingerton High, the school know for the disappearances of girls. She was not one of the popular girls in school and would do anything to boost her popular status. She just wanted to be noticed. Noticed by a particular person, Nick Hock.
She was head over heels for him. He was the heartthrob of the school.
Getting him to like you was extremely difficult, since he would usually turn down most of the girls that asked him out and because he wouldn't date anyone who was at a low rank on the social ladder. It was a pity that she couldn't get him to notice her. A simple exchange of a greeting was the most conversation she had had with him.
After a high school farewell party, which everyone was invited to, not to mention, it was actually the only party she had ever attended, when everyone bid farewell to each other they each and went their separate ways home.
She lived in the same street as Nick Hock and a few other populars.
The reason why she never left her house to play with the other children was because they would bully her. While the students were still hanging around the parking lot after the party she spotted Nick standing alone in the moonlight. Seeing this as the perfect chance to talk to him she went over to him.
"Hey," she said softly. He turned his head and looked at the girl, "Um, do l know you?" He asked her. "I'm that girl who seats behind you in Biology," she replied softly, bowing her head to the ground. "Oh, Evelyn, is it?" He quizzed. "Yeah, that's me," she replied shyly drawing circles on the sand with her feet.
"Nice to meet you," he said giving her the most seductive smile, she had ever seen.
"Can l walk you home or something," he said, making her look up. What on earth had caused him to ask such a question.
"Um, yeah, if you insist," her cheeks turning into a rosey red.
They walked together down the road. She felt like she was on cloud nine as they walked together. At one time Nick held her hand, making her have butterflies in her stomach. When they were now walking over, Millingtol bridge he suddenly went into a halt. "Huh, what's wrong," she asked.
There was a glow and a glint in his eye that made her quite uncomfortable. He suddenly grinned widely, his grin almost looked maniacal.
Something in her told her to run and she obliged. Nick grabbed her by the waist and pulled her closer to him, "let me go you bastard!" She cried as stuggled for freedom, but his grip was too strong. His left hand krept up to her head and held it in position. He leaned closer to her and did the unexpected, he kissed her. It wasn't those kidses were you feel like you want to fly, no, it was that kiss that felt like all hell was broken into you.
Her eyes glowed black the moment he smashed his lips onto hers.
She felt like she was being cooked alive as her body suddenly became warm. As soon as the warmth disappeared she felt extra extremely cold. As soon as the coldness reached her heart her body jerked and collapsed.
There was a thumbing in her head. The pain was excruciating. She slowly opened her eyes to note that she wasn't at the bridge anymore. She felt different. She looked around and noted that she was in a cave of some sort. There were strange carvings on the wall. She slowly stood up and looked around. "I see you are awake," a voice said from behind her. It was a ghost...that looked like Nick. "Explain yourself!" She said with newfound bravery.
"Very well, you see l was not always this, let me say, handsome. Do you remember Elmore McKenzie?" He asked, she nodded in response. He was a boy that went missing at freshmen year. "I am him," he said.
Her eyes went wide. Was this really him? "Huh, how?" She asked out of disbelief.
He grinned, "l hated the the fact that people would bully me about my looks. When l was on my way home one day l met a wishing ghost. She granted me my wish but it came with a price, l had to get thirteen souls of young maidens and if l didn't...let's just say, l wouldn't my happy ending."
She slowly took all this in, berating herself for her stupidity.
l suppose you want to know how all of this ended. Unlike the other girls she fought for her life and won, but in battle...Let's just say, she didn't make it out fully alive. She lost half her life that day. So I'm guessing now that she is a halfa you think she has a life similar to Danny's, but no, when she got back to the human realm and lived her life, her ghost half overpowered her and when she tried to turn back into a human it hurt. It slowly destroyed her human half until she was full ghost (Or so what she thought) ...in other words, it was extremely painful.
Although she didn't look it, she still had an ounce of humanity left in her.
When she became a ghost her obsession was to be noticed, at all costs, and did l mention power. Her plan was to help her master to the throne and backstab him to power. But when she started this mission something was holding her back could it be the fact that she...
She slowly knocked on her master's door and when she got permission to enter, she sauntered into the room. Drago, was sitting on his 'throne' with a bored expression on his face.
"What is taking you so long!" He demanded. Eve stopped dead in her tracks and looked down. "I'm still working on it, sir," she said barely above a whisper, but Drago had heard just fine. "Cosmos' plan is going to be put into action in two weeks and you're still working on it! If you do not complete your simple task in these two days, you're going to regret the day you died! Now l don't want to see your face until you do stage one of the plan. Now go, get out of my sight!" He commanded.
She scampered out of the castle. Wait until she stabs him in the back, he'll regret talking to him like that!
She set off to the human realm, a twinge of guilt still hanging on in her stomach... why was she feeling this way!
"That's it for the class today, to end we are going to have an announcement from Mr and Mrs Fenton for the ghostketeers club," Mr Lancer announced. He handed over the 'spotlight' to the woman next to him.
"Hello class, today l want to answer Paulina's question she asked earlier this week," paulina's head shot up in anticipation. Maddie eyed a sleeping Danny, who was murmuring something in his sleep. She sighed and took a step forward only to be stopped by Mr Lancer. "Let me take care of this," he offered.
He walked over to Danny and noted that he was talking in his sleep.
He leaned over and listened in. "Ćesu mensogi al mi!" He muttered. Lancer stood up straight and blinked a couple of times, "little woman! I must be hearing things," he stupped to his level again and listened to get a clarification if what he had heard was...what he had heard. "Ne! I mi ne ekstravaganco!" He heard.
"Percy Jackson, Fenton is a genius!," he said out loud.
He shook him awake and he shoot his head up. "Mom, dad what are you doing here?" He asked. "We're here to make announcements, sweetie," she answered with her sugar coated voice, "Why are you sleeping in class," she quizzed, putting her hands on her hips.
"I was up late...uh, studying!" He lied.
"Mmmm, okay," she gave in, although she didn't seem swayed by the answer. "That's my boy!" Jack said proudly. "Lancer, what did you hear?" She asked Lancer, who was still a bit dazed because of the fact that Danny knew Esperanto. He looked at Danny who had a confused expression on his face and looked back at the mistress. As if he was debating whether to tell or not. "Danny, uh...can speak," he looked at Danny once more and saw that his expression had changed to the one that seemed to be pleading for something, "Danny can speak Latin," he lied.
At least all the students in the class knew that. "What, that can't be right, Danny isn't, uh..." she stopped in mid-sentence, "What! Smart enough!" Danny said in anger. "No sweetie, that's not what l meant to say," she pleaded. "So what did you mean to say," his voice carried the emotion of hurt and rage. Maddie looked at the tiled floor, ashamed. "No answer, that's all the answer l need," he continued.
His own mother didn't think he was smart, wow. "Danny..." his mother tried to comfort him but he pushed her away.
"Mom, just because l don't get straight A's like Jazz doesn't mean l have no brains. You know what, from all the people l thought would think that, l didn't expect it from my mother," with that he stood up and walked out of the classroom. He was pissed.
"Um, okay class, back to the announcements," the whole class shifted their heads from the door Danny had walked out from, to the man clad in orange. "When we are done with weapons training, we are are going to take a field trip to the ghost zone in two weeks time," his eyes kept on flickering back to the door Danny had stormed out of. "That's all, so we will hand out indemnity forms for you to give to your parents, that's all...Maddie," Jack nudged maddie by her arm. "Oh right," she said snapping out of her trance. She handed out green papers to the students, "Return these papers back to us tomorrow," she instructed.
The day went on as usual. Danny returned when his parents left, which was now when the next class, Math. As l said the day went on as usual.
Even though he didn't feel like it, he still went to the stupid ghostketeer club. Everyone was sitted in the living room waiting for instructions. The students were talking about all sorts of junk. Shoes, football, gossip, Phantom, school, yeah...all sorts of junk. Sam and Eve were sitting together, they now had really strong bond.
Although they were only friends for a month now, it seemed like there were friends since forever. In fact they were now past the title best friends, they were now more like sisters.
They were alike in a lot of ways. They both were animal activists, did not eat meat, were obsessed about uniqueness, had parents that were the complete opposites of them, yep, they were pretty much twins. Danny still did not trust Eve, his gutstincts wouldn't allow him. He once thought about spying on her but decided against it.
His mother walked into the room and everyone zipped their mouths shut. Danny just sat there, bored out his mind. "Today students we are going to continue with our target practice and training, but first we will learn about some of the equipment we have. So let's all head down to the lab," she instructed. Everyone obliged and followed the mistress down the stairs. Everything about the lab still amazed them, but what caught their eyes the most was the humongous object covered by the sheet.
The pupils gathered around the object, for their curious nature told them that whatever it was underneath they were going to find out soon. "So ghostketeers, I'm pretty sure you want to find out what it is underneath that sheet," Jack boomed, the students nodded in response. "Well it is the most amazing thing you will ever see, maybe after fudge...no, l take back, it is more amazing than fudge. Eh, maybe fudge... you know what, they are both amazing, but most definitely it is more amazing than horse meat. That's all we had to eat in the war...that was just-"
"Hun, l think they get it," Maddie interrupted. "So without further or do," he said getting a hold of the edge of the cloth, "The spectre speeder...l guess l can't call it a spectre speeder because it's not as fast as it used to be since l made upgrades to it, so l guess it now a spectre bus," he began bumbling.
"Jack, please," Maddie pleaded. "Oh, right!" He removed the sheet and there it was the spectre speeder. Everyone burst into wows and uh's.
"So, this baby is used to move around in the ghost zone. One of my greatest inventions. So enough of that and lets see the Fenton portal!" He said with the excitement of a young child.
He gestured to the portal in the wall. Everyone immediately forgot about the bus and turned their attention to the portal. "This portal leads you to the ghost zone, l would explain but l don't know how it works. Uh-uh and this is the Fenton genetic lock. It only gives access for Fenton's to open it. Like this!" He said as he readied himself to push the button. Something in Danny snapped, he ran through the crowd, to Jack so that he wouldn't push it, but it was too late.
The green swirly void of the ghost zone was open to all, but a blue mist from the halfa's mouth told him he gotta roll. (That rhymes!)
A ghost emerged from the portal it looked like an eagle and a lion merged together...it was a Griffin. It started flying in circles over them, its screeching made glass break. Panick was evident in the entire room (Okay...since when did my English go this bad). It knocked over some chemicals over some of the students heads.
Danny was thinking of what to do but he couldn't figure out what to do. Jack and Maddie took action and started to blast the ghost. Maddie nailed the ghost on the wing and caused it to sway in its flying pattern, but after some seconds it regained aerial balance. Jack tried to shoot the beast but kept on missing, he was actually causing more damage than the ghost.
It suddenly grabbed Eve with its claws or paws...a mixture of both? After that it spun two times around the lab, until it was obvious it was trying to find the portal. It descended a little and went in the direction of the portal. Sam jumped up and grabbed Eve by the legs. "Let me go Sam! I can't drag you into this!" She yelled. "I'm never letting go of you, Evy!" She shouted back. Sam was now standing on the edge of the portal. Danny dashed to Sam to try and grab her before she fell in, but something unexpected happened.
When he was now in a one meter radius from Sam, he was shot. The ray hit him head on the chest and it sent him flying to the wall, head first. When his head crashed onto the wall, he passed out. This shocked Sam making her forget the task at hand and was dragged into the ghost zone along with Eve.
You could hear the screeching and girlish screams die down showing that they were now heading deeper into the ghost zone. The panick in the lab quieted down as everyone gathered around Danny. His shirt was singed. It original white colour was replaced by red. He had a peaceful face expression, as he said in his own pool of blood. His body looked like all the colour was drained from it. Above his head on the wall was a trail of blood, which showed that when he got impact with the wall he got a concussion. Electricity from the shot, moved around his body. It was mostly evident in his hair. Danny just sat there, motionless...
l didn't want to end the story here, but l figured if l did that then were is the fun in that. I know it's almost Christmas, but this is the way l roll on Christmas...keep the people begging for more.
So l hope all the hint bombs l dropped are not going to go to waste.
Okay so the game today is to see if anyone picked up one of the hints l gave when Jack was announcing to the class about the field trip...if anyone figures out the hint, lets just say l have a surprise for you, but only with your permission. Do write what you think in the reviews and if you are right l will PM you.
So Danny is pretty much dead, Sam and Eve are trapped in the ghost zone, Jack has to go through a guilt trip, tune in to see what drama and action l have packed for you and just for you! Next time Phans!
