Chapter 13
Sam followed her mother into her room. "You...have the perfect dress for this 'event'?" she asked crossing her arms. "Remember: I don't like the color pink. At all."
"I know Sammy." Mrs. Manson said smiling, going threw her closet. "That's why, I got you this!" she said finding a dress in the back of her nice sized closet. Walking out of it, she walked past Sam to her bed. "Lets see.." she mumbled unzipping the wrapping around the dress to protect it from the dust.
"Here you are." Mrs. Manson said smiling brightly, taking out a dark midnight purple gown. "It's perfect for under cover isn't it?"
"It is!" Sam said with shimmering eyes. "I can fix it up...just a bit though."
"Fix it up?" Mrs. Manson asked squinting her eyes. "Sam, the dress is already perfect."
"Well...to you it probably." Sam said smiling. "It's just missing a little me, that's all." she said taking the dress from her mothers grip.
"Sam sweetie?"
"What?" Sam asked looking up at Mrs. Manson. "What's wrong?"
"Promise me, you won't go head first into this..." Mrs. Manson said with sad soft eyes.
"I'm already in head deep." Sam said looking away, and walking out of the room. "Thanks Mom." she said with a smile as she closed and locked her door.
Hanging the dress on the closet near her bed, she walked into the bathroom sighing as the steam hit her face. "...Relaxing is rule number one...when using your powers, or they'll get out of hand.." she heard Danny's words spinning around in her head before she had passed out. "...Danny, I wonder if you're...doing okay." she thought out loud sadly. "I want to see you." she said looking at the ceiling. "Come on, show up." she had a sad look in her eyes. "Please?" sighing in defeat she shifted herself to get out of the bathtub.
"That had to be the shortest bath I've ever seen!" said a voice from up above her.
"W-What?" Sam said looking up, instantly wrapping herself in a towel. "Danny?"
The person who materialized in front of her wasn't Danny, it was some girl. "Hiya! she said waving with her white glove-covered hand. She floated down in front of Sam, she didn't look any older then fourteen.
Sam took a small step back. Who are you?" she asked raising a brow. "You look like,Danny." she gapped. "Are you his..daughter?"
"No, no!" The girl said shaking her head. "I'm his cousin!" she said looking up at Sam. "I'm Danielle Fenton, sorry it took so long for me to get here!"
"I called for you?" Sam asked now about five feet away from the girl, raising a brow.
"You had to of, I got this letter from you." Danielle said looking down at herself, blinking slight. "Oh right, hold on." she said closing her eyes as a light twirled around her. Her appearance changed to a girl with a red hat, a blue jacket over a white shirt, and blue jeans. "There we go!"she said looking up at Sam.
"How come, Danny can't change back like that?" Sam asked squeezing her towel tightly around her chest.
"He isn't completely stable...or that's what he thinks." Danielle shook her head. "I think it's somehow the king."
"The king...again?" Sam asked looking at Danielle with an annoyed look. "That guy, is a fruit loop."
"I know this." Danielle said taking out the note she mentioned before. "Here we go! It says you're going to need some help with your powers when you wake up, and seeing as you're already awake I can help you."
"Can we start now, that weird ball is tomorrow. And I need to control my powers correctly." Sam said raising a finger. "I think if you show me how to control my powers, I'll be just fine."
"Alright.. then, go get dressed and meet me outside." Danielle said changing back into her Phantom-side. "See you in five minutes."
"Right." Sam said nodding her head. "Thanks Danielle."
"Call me Danni." Danielle said smiling. "It's Danny with an I."
"Alright." Sam said as Danielle phased threw the ceiling. Quickly getting into her room, she got dressed as fast as humanly possible. "T-There.. we go." she said placing her hair out of her eyes. "An old look, huh?" she said looking at the small pony tail on the back of her hair, shaking her head. "Got to go!" grabbing her purple backpack she ran out of her room.
"Mom I'll be back later!" Sam said passing her mothers room.
"Sam, wait!"
"What?" Sam asked from the half-way point of the stairs.
"Good luck on controlling those powers of yours." Mrs. Manson said giving a fake smile.
"I'll do my best." Sam said running down the stairs and out the front door.
After making sure her mother was gone, she looked up at the sky. "Danni, you there?" she called out going down her front porch stairs.
"Right behind you." Danielle said floating about ten feet above her. "Do you want to try and use your powers on the outskirts of town?"
"Yeah." Sam said looking up at her, then down. "I'm going to try, and use my powers here first though. I know what they can do, just a bit." closing her eyes a glowing circle appeared underneath her, the wind bended around her back as the purple wings appeared. "A-Are there wings on my back?"
"Yeah! That's so cool!"Danielle said sounding like a ten year old kid. "Are you okay?"
Sam opened her eyes as the glowing circle disappeared, blinking slightly she looked up at Danielle and smiled. "I don't feel sleepy at all!" she said jumping trying to get balance as she floated two inches off the ground. "How do I use these things?"
"Relax when you use your powers." Danielle said floating down next to Sam."Relax."
Sam nodded and breathed out softly, before her wings twitched slightly. "Relax Manson.." she whispered to herself, as she staggered a bit and began to float a little higher.
"You did it Sam, you're flying!" Danielle said smiling.
"I am?" Sam asked looking at her wings seeing them flapping, she laughed. "I am!"
"Now come on lets go." Danielle said flying ahead of her towards the outskirts of the city.
As soon as they got there Danielle and Sam landed with a soft thud.
"First of all: Always relax." Danielle said breathing in deeply, making an ecto-beam in her right hand before little it go sending it flying at a rock near them. "Now lets see your powers."
Sam nodded looking down at her hands. "..I don't really, know what they are other then they are Angel powers."
"What type of powers would angels have?" Danielle thought aloud looking at Sam questionably. "Try moving something!"
"A little more blunt please." Sam asked blinking slightly.
"Lift up her hand and try moving something with your mind." Danielle said crossing her arms. "That blunt enough?"
"Yeah, thanks." Sam said looking back over at Danielle then forward.
"Lets see..." Danielle said looking down at a small rock. "Try lifting up that small rock."
"Alright." Sam said lifting up her hand and concentrating the best she could. Her eyes scrunched slightly as the tiny rock moved, then flew hitting another rock ten meters away. "Did it work?"
"Yep!" Danielle said smiling. "So you can move things with your mind, what else?"
"Let me try something, I did only once when I was ten." Sam said focusing at her hand formed a thing of 'purple wind' "There we go!" Sam said smiling throwing it across the plain.
Looking to what Sam did to the rock, she gapped. "Wow Sam, I'd say you only need help in fighting ghosts!"
"Ghosts?"
"Yeah, the king to save Danny!" Danielle flew down next to her. "All you have to know is: Look for light bending out of place, or if you feel cold in one part of a room. You'll be fine."
"But how do I fight an invisible enemy?" Sam asked crossing her arms. "I understand that much."
"Maybe you have a power to fight someone invisible?" Danielle suggested. "Try and figure that out before tomorrow."
"I will." Sam said as her wings re-appeared. "I need to head back." Sam said turning away. "Thank you for everything Danielle."
"Wait a second Sam." Danielle said searching in her pocket again. "Take this." she said holding up a necklace with a funny looking 'DP.' "Danny asked me to give you this." she said sincerely. "If you need any help, just squeeze it alright?"
"I will." Sam said smiling.
"I got your crazy friend to help as well!" Danielle said smiling.
"Crazy friend?" Sam asked blinking. "Tucker?"
"Yep, he's so good at controlling anything techy!" Danielle said jumping in the air. "Until later." she said disappearing into the air.
Sam stood there for a second before jumping into the air as well, and then took off back towards home. "Wait just another day Danny." she said looking at the necklace. "One more day, then all this nonsense will end."
