Chapter 2: The Black Mirror

The sound of the lullaby fainted into emptiness. I no longer can hear it. Suddenly, I heard a huge rumble, rocking my bed to wake me up. It felt like an earthquake. Could it possibly be my parent's experiment? I fall off the bed and landed on Tucker.

Tucker yelped, "Dude! Get off of me!" He pushes me away from him.

I apologized to him, "Sorry Tucker," I stand up, "It's a rumble morning. We have to check it out. It could be Dan!" I sort of panic because I was worrying about my evil self, escaping from Clockwork's grasp.

Tucker walked to the window and opens it. He saw a giant pink demon falcon bird pecking at the Fentonwork's satellite. "Dude, there is a giant bird on top of your home."

"Say what?" I quickly go ghost and ignore the worries of my evil self. I fly my way up toward to the pink ghost bird and I greeted, "Hey! What's up doing at my house, rumbling me to wake up!"

Tucker yelled, "Beat it up!"

I attack the pink bird with my kick, but then the bird grab my legs and threw me high in the sky. Then I heard, it voice speaks, "Ah, you think you're gonna beat me up by your friend cheering you on? That won't work."

My parents quickly gets out of the house and tries to help me to attack and trap the bird down.

My mother yelled, "You filthy beast! Gets your talons off of my son!"

The pink demon bird snickered, "Never!" The bird flies toward me and grabbed my entire body by its talon, "You think you're so strong, Phantom? That's not all. You don't know anything about us!"

It threw me down to the pavement and I was hurt really bad and created a crater on my fall. I tried to get up and then I fly toward to the bird with an ecto punch in the stomach, "How about some of this!"

It squawked, "That punch like that will never defeat me! Hit me harder again, weakling." It grabbed my arm by its beak and entirely crushed it. I scream in so much in pain. It bleeds in ectoplasm.

My dad tries to capture the bird with the net, but it dodges and tears the net apart into pieces. My mom tries to use a bazooka to shoot it, but it dodges and breaks the bazooka apart with its strong talons.

The pink bird looks at me and evilly smiled. Its beak comes closer to my ear and whispers, "Phantom, I am Spring. I am here to terrorize your time."

I growled. I grew angrier and then I tried to punch it with my other arm, but the beak grabs it again and crushes my other one. I yelled again in pain. It threw me down toward the flat pavement.

I shut my eye and almost fall into unconsciousness. So the so-call bird name is Spring and it's pink. That makes sense all to me now. I opened my eyes and saw my parents were being tied up in the net together by this bird. The bird stared down at me with her green eyes. It looks at me as if I was lifeless person. I feel like it wants to eat me, but it didn't.

The bird suddenly transform into its true form in front of me. It appears to be a long figure like around eight or ten foot from an actual human. Then the four green wings appear behind its back. Black horns grew on top of the head. The skin was light pink. The hair was messy green. She wore leafy clothing, matching the name of hers. I was speechless. What is this creature? I never saw it before. Not in any one of my fights. It looks ugly and beautiful at the same time. I'll never understand.

Tucker and Sam quickly ran out of the house and tries to get closer to me, but the creature in front of me, was scaring them. No idea that my friends were helpless to defend me, not my parents, not their own weapons either.

Spring look down at me and evilly smiled, "Looks like I defeated you. Ghost inventions of yours won't work on the creatures like me. They're useless to you." She held out a large black rectangular glass in front of me. "Here, enjoy your gift." It left me a giant obsidian black glass in front it and "Spring" took off in the sky and opens the portal. I saw the portal and she just traveled into it and it closes behind her. The streets gone quiet since I just almost fought and almost being killed by that four-winged demon creature.

Sam ran toward to me to check on me to see if I'm all right. My arms were hurt and bleeding in ectoplasm. She heals me with bandages and medicines. I feel fine afterward, but it feels like I can't write for a week. Tucker tries to search for that winged creature in his device, but it shows up no information about that four winged creatures at all. Jazz freed my parents from the net and it was almost tangled, but she managed to get them out.

My parents examined the long rectangular black object with fascination. The black glass was purely made from obsidian glass. My parents called it the "Black Mirror" because it shaped like a rectangle or either an actual mirror sizes. They brought the mirror into our house and take it down to the lab. I just hope they don't play with it because, that creature left behind likes a mysterious object that we don't know.

Sam and Tucker went home because their parents might be worrying. I watched them go home and I go back inside in human form. I go downstairs to check to see what's my parents are doing with the black mirror down in the lab. My sister watched them attaching the mirror to that machine that they built last night. I didn't make any peep, but just watching how my parents ridiculously doing the work.

When they are finished installing the mirror, we all look at it in awed. The mirror was gorgeous, mysterious, and so black. It reminds me of a black hole. I touched it, but my dad slapped my hand away.

"Now don't touch it, Danny, it could be dangerous. We're gonna see how this mirror connected to this creature. It could lead us into different dimension," my father said.

I think my dad is thinking ridiculous, but I think he's right. It may lead us to a different dimension other than the Ghost Zone. I nodded to him. "You're right and how are we going make this to work?"

My mom pulled the lever and answer, "By using the Fenton-Electro. It only generates electricity and even during blackouts too."

I was annoyed that she made another name by using our family name. "The Fenton-Electro? Can you come up with a better one?" I was sarcastic again. "But anyway…" then my dad cuts me off.

"It works! The black mirror or glass is generating!" he flailed his arms in the air as victory.

"That's nice, Dad," Jazz was amazed that the mirror it working.

We all look at the mirror and stared into the center of the mirror because we all saw something moving. It's like a deep, dark black hole.

I asked, "Dad? You said it was a black mirror right?"

"Yes, it's working too. It could lead us into different dimension. I am going to jump in just right now! ," my dad suddenly jumps into the mirror with his stupidity. The mirror sucks him into the deep black hole.

"Dad!" I yelled in panic.

"No worries, Danny," he replied safely back to me, "I see the 1920s on the newspaper! Maddie, you should come and look at this! I see old cars back in those days!"

My mom squealed, "Really Jack?! I'm coming in to get you," my mom jumped into the black mirror to follow my dad. Then I asked myself, "Is this could get anymore crazy? 1920s?"

Jazz looked at me, "Um Danny, I have a feeling this isn't safe?"

I looked at her, "Why?"

"Because, the mirror from the creature is pure evil."

The laughter mysterious appears.

Then the mirror shuts down itself and the black hole disappears from its glass. The Fenton-Electro created a blackout in our house and then the rest of Amity Park.

I gasped and become quickly worried, "What?!" I panic and tried to reactivate the mirror, but it wouldn't work. When the electricity came back on again in fifteen minutes, I tried to reactivate it quickly and it failed. The mirror wouldn't respond toward to electricity. I tried this for many hours. Jazz walked around in circle in sadness and boredom.

Jazz cried, "It's no use, Danny, the mirror consumed them."

"NO!" I yelled in anger and sadness, "They cannot just disappear like this!" I panic and suddenly I collapsed on my knees against the floor and cried. "Dad, Mom…please come back. We need you."

The laughter suddenly appears into my head and Jazz couldn't hear it. I yelled out to the black mirror, "Come on out! Where are you! WHO ARE YOU?!" I don't know why I yelled at the mirror, but I felt like there was something else in there.

Sam and Tucker come into the lab without getting through the door. I look up at them in tears and look down.

"What's the matter, Danny? Where are your parents?" my girlfriend asked.

I sniffed and look at her face, "They're gone into the 1920s inside of this mirror."

Tucker attached the wire to the mirror and his device said, "Unknown" and then it was written infinity numbers. "I can't tell you where is this mirror is from. If they said that they were taken into the 1920s, we should ask Clockwork to get them back. Maybe they're stuck in the time that they can't return."

I wiped off his tears and felt a little better. I nodded, "Okay."

Jazz said, "I'll stay in the house to keep the house protected from ghosts or those creatures." She went upstairs to keep the house in check.

Sam, Tucker, and I went on the ghostly hover board that my dad invented. It was great gift for me that he gave it to me on Christmas. We all went together into the Ghost portal and fly to find Clockwork in his lair.
