Chapter ten
-Three weeks later-
Danny let out a sigh as he flew over the city, he was bored, bored bored! Nothing had happened the last few weeks. No ghost attacks. No evil plans from Vlad. Nothing. Heck even Dash had let up on his bullying for now. Floating down onto a random rooftop Danny stretched his arms above his head letting out a sigh when the action cracked his back.
"Anything on your end Danny?" Sam's voice came cracking over his ear piece.
"No nothing what about you and Tucker?" He asked letting out a sigh.
"Nothing. Man this stinks." Tucker whined, "What's the point of patrolling when there hasn't been any ghost activity in weeks?"
"Because we don't know if they're waiting for us to let our guard down." Danny replied tiredly, "You guys can head home if you want it doesn't look like anything's going to happen today."
"Alright see ya later man." Tucker said before he cut out.
"See you tomorrow at school Danny." Sam said before she too was gone.
Taking out his earpiece Danny leaned against the edge of the roof staring up at the sky. As he stared at the stars he couldn't help but think about when he was younger. All he'd wanted was to be an astronaut and one day go out into space. But then everything had happened with the ghost portal and he'd become the unwanted ghost hero of Amity Park.
"Not that I even want to do that anymore." He mumbled under his breath.
Something had changed in him these past few weeks. Fighting ghosts, hanging with his friends, even sneaking into movies. He didn't feel like doing none of those things anymore. It was like he was missing half of himself. Whatever had happened to him (not like anyone would tell him exactly what it was) changed everything.
"Guess I should head back and do my homework since it looks like nothing's going to happen tonight." He muttered under his breath.
Just as he was about to take off his ghost sense went off. Mentally cheering at finally getting come action (that was not meant to be a joke -.-) Danny whirled around grinning wickedly when he saw the familiar outline of a certain ghost kid and his parrot. Preparing to attack Danny started forming a ball of ghost ectoplasm in his right hand. He wasn't prepared to be tackled by the kid or for him to hugged tightly by said kid.
"Danny! I missed you! I didn't believe it when Aunt Desiree and Skulker told me you were Nicholas, but they never lied to me before. Anyway they told me I couldn't see you for awhile but I wanted to play with you so much that I had to come see ya! We should play bandits or maybe cops and and umm..." Youngblood spouted barely stopping to take a breath.
"Robbers." His parrot spoke up in a bored tone.
"Right cops and robbers! I'll even let you be the bad guy." Youngblood said with a bright smile.
Danny just stood there as Youngblood watched him expectantly. The only thing he could think of was:
WHAT THE HELL IS HE TALKING ABOUT?!
Some of his confusion must have shown on his face because Youngblood frowned before smiling again.
"I guess you don't remember. A couple weeks ago Skulker-" He started to say.
Out of nowhere Skulker appeared, clapped a hand over Youngblood's mouth, then flew away. Danny blinked once, then twice, and finally a third time. He started floating home his brain trying to process whatever just happened. Questions plagued his mind as he floated unaware as he flew through building after building.
What was all that about?
What was Youngblood talking about?
Why did Skulker show up when he hasn't the last few weeks?
Most importantly:
Who the heck was Nicholas?!
-Back with Skulker and Youngblood-
"WHAT THE HELL WHERE YOU THINKING?!" Skulker yelled not caring if any humans heard him.
Youngblood started shaking as Skulker glared down at him with venom. After a moment he started to cry causing Skulker to back up a little. A hand settled on his shoulder lightly causing him to turn and look into the face of his new wife.
"Don't be so harsh Skulker, you know he's missed Danny almost as much as we have." Desiree said before stooping down in front of Youngblood, "It's alright, we're not mad we miss being with Danny just as much as you."
"Then why can't I tell him? Then he'll come be my brother again." Youngblood said wiping at his tears.
"Because he already has a family, and it would be mean of us to take him away from them." Desiree explained.
"But I want him to be part of our family!" Youngblood cried.
"Yeah well we do to but we don't always get what we want." Skulker said sighing when Youngblood didn't stop crying, "Come on let's go home."
With that he picked the boy up and the trio of ghosts, and ghost parrot, returned to the ghost zone.
-At the Fenton home-
Danny sighed as he stood outside his sister's door. She had been avoiding him for the past few weeks since she didn't want to talk about whatever happened. Now though he needed to know more then ever. It almost felt like he could remember, it was there but it wasn't. Jazz held the key to him remembering completely.
"Danny what are you doing?" A voice asked from behind him.
Turning around he came face to face with his older sister. Taking a deep breath he looked her straight in the eye.
"Jazz we need to talk."
Author: Okay so this wasn't the last chapter. Geez Youngblood he almost spilled everything! Until next time lol.
