DANCING IN THE STARS

Chapter 1
LESSONS LEARNED


A WEEK AFTER THE FINAL EVENTS OF THE AMETHYST MASK

"She's just a minor! You can't just possibly lock her up here!" Danny said. "And one more thing, I'm all right. I'm alive! You don't need to take her as a prisoner."

"What? Don't tell me you're defending that… that shallow girl!" Valerie exclaimed, pointing a finger to Paulina. "This heck of a woman almost killed Sam, and killed you! Luckily your girlfriend's grandparents were there to bring you back!"

Danny, Tucker, Sam and Valerie visited the penitentiary, where Paulina has been held for almost a week. Danny and Sam decided to lift their complaint on Paulina, since everything went fine after the encounter. Danny was alive, and Paulina was sentenced to a year in the correction facility.

As the exchange of words worsened, Sam intervened. "Guys, guys! I know Paulina did some bad things, but I believe what happened to us and to her as eventually taught her a lesson."

"And what could be that, Sam?" Valerie asked.

Sam answered, "I don't know. It is for Paulina to learn, understand and apply to her life."

Finally, Valerie gave in to her group's decisions. "Fine, if you will let her go, I will keep an eye on her. She will definitely learn a lesson if she tries to barge in to your lives again."

"Deal!" Tucker exclaimed, as the warden approached them. "Ms. Sanchez will be released once the release order has been issued by the court. In the meantime, she will stay here while we wait for the judge's decision.

"Thank you, sir." The group said as they decided to leave the prison. As they walked along the streets of Amity Park, Sam began to talk about their encounter with the magical mask.

"Danny, do you think my mask has some kind of a mystical power?" Sam asked.

"I… I think so." Danny answered. "You said it brought your grandparents here in the Human World and revived me."

"Yes, but… I don't know who gave that mask. I just received a package on our door. No name was written." Sam said.

"Then, we can find out who gave you that. We can know what it means and how that mask will affect us, or our relationship," Danny told her.


After a long walk in the park, the group decided to hang out at Sam's home.

"Hey, guys!" Valerie exclaimed. "How about movies and pizza?"

"Sounds like a plan!" Tucker shouted. "I'm starving!"

"Okay, guys." Sam said. "You two order pizza and choose movies. I will talk to Danny for a while."


Danny and Sam went upstairs into her room, and went into her walk-in closet where the mask was hidden.

"There she is, Danny," Sam whispered as she took the mask from the glass box. Danny took the mask out from the box and stared at it, hoping to find clues about its mysterious powers.

"How about a name or initials?" Danny whispered, turning the mask around to see more of its beauty. "Or maybe a button?"

"I have no idea, Danny." Sam said. "Whoever owns that mask, he or she must have a power of some kind."

"Ghost powers?" Danny asked. "Or sorcery?"

"No one knows," Sam answered. "Luckily Paulina didn't discover its powers. It would be devastating if she used it to destroy our relationship."

Hearing those words, Danny placed the mask back in the box, and then held Sam's soft hands. "Samantha, nothing will ever ruin our friendship. Not a single shallow girl will replace the Goth Girl I truly love."

"Awww!" Sam was touched hearing his boyfriend's sweet words of love. As they looked on each other's eyes, their faces went closer and closer, until his smooth lips touched her soft, purple lips.

Tucker and Valerie went upstairs to call Danny and Sam. "Guys, the pizza's here-"

Tucker and Valerie gasped as they saw Danny and Sam, all wrapped in their tender love. Their shocked face turned into smiles as Danny and Sam's kiss became sweeter.

"Come on, Tuck. We'll just wait for them down." Tucker and Valerie went down and waited for the couple.


Danny and Sam's sweet moment was cut-off; they need this thing called oxygen. They gasped for air after they pulled out, but their hug was still there. "I will never let you go, Sam."

Danny, with all his might, carried Sam and went downstairs, where Tucker and Valerie were waiting.

"Did you have fun there?" Valerie jokingly asked.

"Indeed yes," Sam exclaimed, and pointed at Danny. "This guy is so awesome!"

"Awww!" Valerie squealed. "I wish I also had an awesome love story!"

"Very soon, Val." Tucker said. "Very soon."

Danny then shouted, "All right! Let's get this party started!"

The group had fun, watching movies, playing games and telling stories about their adventures.
