Chapter 13- Plans
Percy's POV
When Tyson left to look for donuts, Danny left soon afterwards.
"I'm going to take a look around the swap. You love birds have fun!" Danny said with a wide grin as he walked away. Anger boiling up inside me.
"WE'RE NOT LOVE BIRDS!" Both Annabeth and I yelled, unfortunately, at the same time. Danny chuckled as he left the shelter. Well, at least he's getting his sense of humor back; it also seems like he might be slowly coming out of his obsessive state…but then again, he doesn't have the space or privacy to work here.
"What a surprise; look what Danny brought. Annabeth held up a bunch of papers, a laptop, a big black case, some of the ghost hunting gear Danny had shown me earilier, some unknown by me ghost weapons, and a jumble of wires and metallic pieces. I figured he would bring the ghost hunting gear, by I was hoping that he wouldn't bring his "Investigative" materials.
"Well, maybe he's slowly getting over it?" I suggested. Annabeth shook her head.
"No. Knowing that Tucker had a part in this probably made it worse for him. We need to concentrate on finding the fleece. ALL of us. We need to get him to stop his…investigation."
Danny's POV:
"WE'RE NOT LOVE BIRDS!" That will always make me laugh! I walked out of the tent chuckling to myself, and I went ghost. Time to explore this swamp; look for any threats. I started flying around the perimeter of the shelter, and then something odd cot my eye. Something purple. I instantly zoomed towards the source of this out of place color, and came face to face with non other then… a purple chipmunk? Odd, weird, but not dangerous. I patted the chipmunk on it's head, and it zoomed the other direction in a speed unimaginable! I shrugged that off. Fast, but o threat.
I heard a cracking noise behind me, I spun around, and was met with a huge whack to my chest. I zoomed backwards slammed into a tree and became human again. I looked down to my still, slightly, hurting leg to see that now it was hurting ever more slightly. By slightly, I mean bloody. I tried to go ghost again, but the ectoplasm would let me. Don't ask me why, I don't know; so I started limping back towards the shelter.
When I got to the door, I was surprised to find Tyson's large figure ram into me. I fell backwards, and looked up angrily to see what was going on. They were all packed up and ready to leave; they even threw me my backpack.
"Um, guys; where are we going?" I asked.
"Tyson found a donut shop about fifty feet away." Annabeth told me.
"So? There's something else we need to be worried about besides donut shops." It was just a donut shop. There was no major threat.
"We're in the middle of the wilderness. There shouldn't be any thing around here for a few miles, and what do you mean by, 'There's something else we need to be worried about?'"
As we started to walk (in my case limp) to the donut shop, I told Annabeth about what happened earlier. She pulled out her knife and told us to watch our step.
When Tyson stopped, he cleared a tree branch and showed us the donut shop.

Tucker's POV: (Takes place an hour after Percy, Annabeth, Tyson, and Danny get away)
This sucked. I was being punished for things I didn't know. I should have seen the signs that Luke was overshadowed. He had glowing green eyes! I don't know how I missed that! And now that I think of it I should have told Luke about Danny being a son of Zeus too! But I didn't know it was important for Luke to know that. I didn't know Luke was overshadowed. So now I'm stuck cleaning up after all the monsters for a week; cleaning up their leftovers and their, umm, waste.
I also kept thinking about what Danny said: 'You killed Sam...' Once again, I DIDN"T KNOW! I thought somehow she got out of there alive, I thought that a hellhound might have gotten her out! I wasn't even involved in most of it, all I did was write the letter, and wait at the shop. Heck, it wasn't even my idea! It was that moron who joined us right after me; claiming that Danny would be a threat, and that he needs to either join us, or we eliminate him.
The one who called himself the "ghost expert". He would usually slip the words "I'm a genius" when convincing people that his way would work; but he hadn't said those words since his last plan went wrong.
I walked into Luke's office to see him with the "ghost expert". HE had a set of blue prints and photographs in front of him and Luke. Luke turned towards me.
"Ah, Tucker. I was about to send someone for you." Luke picked up one of the photos, and showed it to me. "Do you recognize this? It's a Fenton thermos. Our friend here found a natural ghost portal, and put a scope into it before it closed. When he looked at the live feed, he was in some sort of ghostly clock tower. Unluckily for him, the scope was destroyed at least 10 minutes later. But, he got a few photos before it was destroyed. This particular photo was taken after the scope was able to get into some sort of vault; do you know what's in it?" I knew the answer, and I knew where the scope had gone into.
"His scope went into Clockworks tower, which Clockwork is the master of all time. He was probably the one who destroyed your scope. In that thermos is one of the most dangerous being in of all time, maybe even as dangerous as the gods. In that thermos, is Dan Phantom, Danny Phantom's future self." As I was explaining, Luke's eyes became bigger, and a smile formed on his face. And I could tell what he was thinking. I was thinking the same thing. We release Dan Phantom. We release him as our ultimate weapon, and the God's ultimate enemy; and after the war, we suck him back into the thermos and give him back to Clockwork. It was perfect.
"You're off cleanup duty. You're going to help us plan for a, uhhh, little quest in a about a week." He smiled, and they both walked out of the room. I walked up to the blue prints, and at first didn't understand what I saw. Then I took a closer look at it.
They were blueprints for a prototype ghost portal.
JD (from scrubs) voice: In the end of this chapter, I like to think…
SpiderPhantom: Wait, how did you get in my head?
JD voice: Because you like scrubs, and you sometimes use my voice in your head to sum things up.
SpiderPhantom: Oh, okay carry on.
JD voice: Alright. In the end of this chapter, I like to think that a short chapter isn't that bad. Plus, if you look at the end, is it really considered a cliff hanger? I'm not sure.
SpiderPhantom: Please review!
