The Missing Way

Danny shuddered. The spacious realm before him was cold and ominous. Chunks of stone drifted around the place. Tufts of blue spiraled up from his mouth every few moments.

"Where's the prison?" Danny mumbled to himself. "Walker said something about a jail transfer, so where's the prison? I don't see any buildings."

A low laugh snuck from behind him. Danny turned to see a familiar uniform, and a white wig.

"Perhaps I should have realized the traitors to the king would know their err and conspire to those who remain a so-called Patriot," mocked the Redcoat.

"Great, it's the ghostly time capsule."

"Such cheek the young lad has. Surely, the boy must be birthed of a sow."

Danny frowned. "Do I even want to know what you just said?"

"Of all the fools, I have to encounter this one!"

"My point - hey!" Danny shouted, realizing what the ghost had just said. "The Revolutionary War is over, okay! Just get over it. And if I hear you insulting me one more time I'll snap!"

The Redcoat smiled. "Do I hear surrender?"

Danny rolled his eyes and shot away from the Redcoat. "And I thought I was bad with history. Is that guy ever going to accept that we won? Never mind, I'll just find the way out of this place and go home."


Jack flew into the Ghost Zone, alone. Jazz had gone to the Foleys' to explain to the parents that Danny was only trying to help. Maddie hadn't wanted to come, Tucker wasn't allowed out, and Sam's parents had dragged her to Luxembourg. They insisted that 'Amity Park had a bad influence on her'.

So Jack was alone, without backup. But then again, he was Jack Fenton, he didn't need backup, right? Jack peered around the fog. There was no sign of Danny, yet, but he wasn't very far in. Danny could be miles away by then.

The Specter Speeder sailed onward, until Jack could see two outlines to the right. Ghosts!

Jack turned off the engine, climbed over the seat, and rolled down the window.

"I heard that Phantom got a prison transfer today."

"Phantom?"

"Oh come on. Don't tell me you forgot that mass escape last year when he let them all out, staying behind to recover the confiscated item he brought in from Earth. Even if you hadn't been there when he escaped, I'm sure you would have heard of him from most of the prisoners."

"You mean the kid with the messy white hair? Why is he going somewhere else? Can't they just move him to another cell?"

"He escaped because he's part human. None of our cells can hold him. No, he got sent to a place where there's no walls, no bars, but no escape. He's been stranded in another dimension. Even if he manages to escape, the place is guarded by ghost hunters so competent that they can stop anyone, even him."

"And who are . . . " The guard didn't finish his sentence, surprised by seeing a metal object that obviously wasn't from the Ghost Zone.

"Look!" he shouted. "A human! I thought Walker just made it a new rule that humans aren't allowed in the Ghost Zone. And he was eavesdropping, also against the rules!"

"A double offense!" cried the other guard.

"He's in for it now."
