Hello! Just to clear up any confusion, this is supposed to be the first movie fic for this spin-off-series-fic-thingy (I have no idea what you'd actually call this).

Eventually, morning came in the town of Amity Park. For the kids, this meant school. Jake was awoken by the annoying beeping of his alarm clock. The sleepy boy got up and banged his fist on the top of the source of the sound, making it shut up. He stretched his arms with a yawn. Tiredly, he pulled back his green covers and jumped out of bed. He changed his black pajamas for his usual black sweatshirt with a green oval and a pair of dark blue jeans. He slipped on his black and green sneakers and fixed his hair in its usual spiky style. Quickly, he brushed his teeth. After Jake was ready, he made his way into the kitchen.

"Hi, Jake." Abby greeted casually.

"Hi, Abs." Jake greeted back, equally as casually.

The male twin grabbed a piece of toast and began munching. He wolfed it down quickly. He didn't want to be late for school…again.

"You two better hurry or else you're going to be late for school." Sam urged.

"I know, Mom." Abby moaned. "Hey, where's, Dad?"

"There was some trouble on the other side of town." Sam replied, slightly pitiful for her husband who had to get up so early to fight, even though he'd been doing this for years.

"Oh, okay. Well, I'd better go." Abby responded.

She grabbed her purple backpack and slung it over her shoulder. The girl transformed into her ghost self and took off through the ceiling. Jake and Sam watched the girl leave.

"I guess that I should go too." Jake figured.

The boy grabbed his green book bag and turned around to leave, but he was stopped when his mother's hand grabbed his shoulder. Jake turned back around to face her, wondering what she had to say.

"Jake, I'm a little worried about you." The mother admitted.

Jake tensed. Worried? She must have noticed something! This wasn't going to end well.

"W-Why would you be worried?" Jake managed to stammer.

"I got a call from your school yesterday." She started, her concern tinting her voice.

Jake gulped. This definitely wasn't going to end well.

"Coming in late? Almost falling asleep in class? Dropping all of the beakers in the science lab? Not to mention that your grades are dropping a little. Jake, what's going on with you?" Sam finished.

"N-Nothing." The uneasy boy stuttered. "Nothing's wrong with me."

"It just seems strange. This is exactly what happened when your father got ghost powers." Sam realized.

Now Jake was almost paralyzed with worry. She was going to figure it out!

"Yeah, strange. Well, I should get to school now. Bye!" Jake dismissed as he dashed out the front door.

The boy ran as fast as he could. He had to get away from his house. His breathing was becoming labored, but he didn't care. It was like some strange instinct. It felt like the more distance he kept between them, the less of a chance she had at figuring his secret out.

"Hey, Jake! Dude, wait up!" Matt yelled from behind.

Hearing his best friend, Jake decided to slow down a bit and wait for Matt to catch up. After all, Matt wasn't exactly the most athletic kid.

"What's the rush?" The dark-skinned boy questioned.

"My Mom almost figured it out!" The half-ghost teen replied in a panic.

"What?! How?!" Matt wondered, a little of his friend's paranoia spilling over on him.

"The school called her. They told her everything! And now she's realizing that all of the stuff that's happening to me happened to my Dad when he got ghost powers!" Jake replied, completely falling apart with terror. He was practically hyperventilating.

"Dude, get a grip!" Matt urged, attempting to keep his friend together.

Jake closed his violet eyes and took a few deep breaths before talking again.

"Thanks." He said, much calmer. "It's just…I don't want them to find out."

"You know, I don't get you sometimes. You know that they won't care if you tell them about the whole Jake/Shadow thing, but you still keep it a secret. Jake, your Dad is half-ghost, your sister is half-ghost, and your aunt is half-ghost! Your aunt already knows and your Dad thinks that Shadow is good, so…why don't you want them to know?" Matt lectured.

"I just…don't think that it's the right time yet. Besides, I still have to convince Abby, which, right now, is starting to look hopeless. Someday I'll tell them, but not right now." Jake responded, slightly sad.

"What about Tori? You won't be able to hide this from her forever. She's our best friend and the fact that she's a ghost hunter doesn't help either. In my opinion, I think that you should tell her before she figures it out herself." The techno-geek advised.

"Speaking of Tori…" Jake trailed, his eyes drifting in a different direction.

"Hey guys, wait up!" A female voice yelled from behind. Tori came running up to them.

As soon as she approached, her ghost detector began beeping. She routinely slammed her hand on the off button, making it shut up. This cycle was beginning to get familiar. Matt cast an implying glance at Jake as if to prove to the teen that telling Tori would be the right thing to do.

"You know, you seriously need to do something about ectoplasm problem. That was a week ago!" Tori lectured.

"Well…you know how hard it is to wash ectoplasm off. Who knows how much longer it'll be on me." The boy fibbed.

"Don't your parents have some sort of ectoplasm removal or something?" Tori wondered. Considering that his Dad and sister were half ghost as well as the fact that them along with Jake's grandparents fought ghosts, you'd think that they have something to get ectoplasm off of them.

"They…um…just ran out." Jake lied.

"Well, if you don't get that stuff off of you soon, my ghost detector is going to drive me insane!" The girl stated.

"Geez, you two sound like an old married couple." Matt commented.

The other two teens stopped their arguing and glared harshly at the third member of their group. Behind the harsh glares, though, the two were blushing at being referred to as an old married couple.

"I was only kidding!" The African American teen amended, holding up his hands in front of him to show that he meant no harm.

Jake and Tori gave him one last silent glare before looking away. The trio stepped into the large brick building known as Casper High. There was the usual hustle and bustle in the halls and, as usual, the three friends went by unnoticed.

"So, Jake, are you nervous about today?" Tori questioned.

"Nervous? Why would I be nervous?" Jake wondered in confusion.

"Dude, your grandparents are guest speakers today." Matt reminded him. "Remember?"

Jake stopped dead in his tracks. "What?! Nobody told me that!"

"Oh, right. You were 'in the bathroom' when Mr. Taylors told us." Matt recalled, putting secret emphasis around 'in the bathroom' to tell Jake that he was ghost fighting.

"Relax, it's just your grandparents. How bad could it be?" Tori comforted.

That definitely didn't help Jake's nerves. Whenever someone asks "how bad could it be," it's usually pretty bad. Murphy's Law sucks, doesn't it?

He, he, he. I'm evil, huh? Oh, and, no, this is not going to just be some pointless detail I made just to ruin-I mean...Add excitement in Jake's life.

BTW, here is a pic I mad of Jake, Matt, and Tori. This is just to give you an idea of what they look like. Sorry if it's not great.
