So, I've been reading The Last Guardian, and I read one of the guards' names: Kolin Ozkopy. Get it? Colonoscopy? I was laughing for like a minute straight, especially because the guy is in charge of tubes that go to the center of the Earth or something I don't feel like explaining. It was funny.

Anyway, now it's time for the ultimate clichés, the ones you've all been waiting for (well, at least I have…), the inspiration for this entire melting pot of stories, the pieces des resistances: …

What? Did you actually expect me to tell you? That would spoil the story! Now read!

Yeah, I know... I get it already! I don't own DP

The crash turned into what sounded like a full-on riot. A crescendo of terrified screams took residence in the once silent air and glass could be heard shattering as a crowd of students made a break for it outside the English classroom's window. Danny spent the next five seconds wishing it was just a classroom revolt. Oddly enough, Lancer was hoping for the same.

"Where is he?!"

This was just not Danny's day.

The voice was unfamiliar to Danny and his friends, but one timid boy in the back of the classroom was trying his hardest to seem like he was just as confused as the rest.

In reality, the boy was terrified. The voice emanating from the next room was very familiar. He still heard it in his nightmares every night. So, due to the rising terror in the poor student's gut, he was the first to scream and head for the nearest exit, which (as he would kick himself later for not noticing) was the adjoining door to the classroom containing the horrifyingly familiar ghost.

The specter saw this as an opportunity to continue its search without the inane use of intangibility.

"You," it said upon spotting Danny in his seat, "I have come to challenge you for the rights of this domain. By the time I'm through with you, you and your pathetic band of insignificant mortals will all plead for my mercy. Some of you may even be reduced to nothing but blubbering squabble underfoot. You will have no choice but to surrender your position as protector either by default or your own choosing. After all, you don't want your entire precious town destroyed, do you?"

Danny slid down in his seat. What is so special about Amity anyway?

"And I will do it by forcing you all into your own fears!" Her piercing red eyes landed on the boy just in front of her with his hand glued to the door, looking like he was about to pee his pants. "One." She paused to look at Dash, "by." Her gaze shifted to Lancer, "one." Her malicious smile came to rest on the halfa as she cackled and a plume of green smoke filled the air.

What? You didn't think Danny was the only one affected by ghosts in the entire ghost-infested town, did you?

P.S. I've had this written and on my laptop for a very, very long time. It's not my best work, but it'll do to get me to the clichés. Hope you didn't give up on me!
