Um...I have absolutely nothing to say.
"Well, kids, as I told you last week, we are having guest speakers today." Mr. Taylors restated. "Please help me welcome Mr. and Mrs. Fenton senior."
The teens occupying the auditorium (for this was an assembly) remained quiet as two figures walked onto the stage. One was a tall, fat, man in an orange and black jumpsuit. His hair was gray and he appeared between his late sixties and early seventies. A broad grin was spread wide across his slightly wrinkled face. Next to him was a woman in a black and blue hazmat suit. She was around the same age as her husband, but looked a little younger (no doubt due to the wonders of make-up). Her hair was a faded auburn, cut so that it reached half-way down her neck. Red lipstick was present on her…well…lips. She may have been old…ish, but her violet eyes were still a magnificent shade.
"Hello, children of Amity Park." Jack greeted formally, which was odd.
"Hi, Jake! Hi, Abby!" Maddie greeted, waving to her two grandchildren.
Said grandchildren sunk low into their chairs.
"Abigail, to sink any lower into your chair you'd have to phase through it." The teacher snapped.
Abby felt her face heating up as she moved into an upright position. How come he never picked on Jake?
"You may begin, Mr. and Mrs. Fenton." Mr. Taylors granted.
"Well, kids, we're here to talk about ghosts!" Jack started excitedly.
"And more importantly, how to defend yourselves if a ghost ever attacks you and neither Danny nor Abby are around to help you.
Tori was a little agitated that they didn't mention her Mom or her, but let it go. Besides friends and family, the identity of the Red Huntress was unknown. Her Mom never told her why she didn't tell everyone. Tori also wondered how no one figured it out. Jake's Dad called her Mom "Valerie" or "Val" all the time and even the few times that Tori had fought, she was called by her first name. Plus, it's not like you can't see through the masks. Her train of thought was interrupted when the ghost hunting duo continued.
"First off, never show a ghost any fear. Try not to scream. Instead, just shout 'help' and run as fast as you can away from the ghost. Try to stall it long enough for Danny, Abby, or ourselves to come by and help." Maddie instructed.
"Or the Red Huntress or the…um…Blue….Huntress." Abby added loudly (she wasn't sure what to call Tori, so she just called her by her suit color, just like her Mom's name had been decided). She gave a secret wink to Tori. Tori returned the wink, silently thanking her.
"Right." Jack nodded. "Next, we're going to tell you a little about the history of ghost hunting and what it was like when ghosts first started to invade Amity Park."
If they weren't afraid of getting detention or an hour long speech about respect, the entire student body would have groaned.
"And if we're lucky, we can even show you a few of the ghost devices that we have brought. It will be important for you to know how to use them if the need ever comes." Maddie picked up. "Now, to give you a brief overall of the history of ghost hunting. Ghost hunting has been around for centuries and was done in different manors. A reliable source (Danny, duh) says that they used to use a plant called "Blood Blossom" to ward off ghosts. That was back in the time of the Salem Witch Trials. Over time, ghost hunting improved and people were able to invent weapons. We will show you some of the modern weapons as well as some of our earlier versions later. Ghosts began to invade Amity Park around twenty seven years ago when we invented the Fenton Ghost Portal. It allows us to gain access to the Ghost Zone, a realm where the ghosts reside. That's around the time when Danny became half-ghost (A/N: In my story, they aren't allowed to tell of exactly how Danny got his powers for fear of other people trying to become half-ghost). That area of time was the trial period of most of our inventions and the time when we were able to get more information on ghosts. The main ghost hunters back then were; us, the Guys in White, the Red Huntress, the X-treme Ghost Breakers, the Groovy Gang and Scaredy Cat, and of course Danny Phantom. Although, Danny wasn't exactly considered a ghost hunter for a while. The only ghost hunting teams out of those six that still remain today are us, the Red Huntress, and Danny Phantom, a.k.a. Danny Fenton. All the others were either banned (coughcough) or just ceased to exist."
"Okay, sweetie, I think that we should move on to showing them the ghost weapons." Jack impatiently interrupted.
Maddie sighed at her husband's intolerance. "Fine."
A wide smile spread across the man's face. He instantly lunged for a metal box and pulled out a decently sized ecto-gun.
"This is your standard ecto-gun. It isn't capable of much damage, but will help slightly if you need to fend off a ghost for a short time. All you have to do to activate it is pull the trigger." Jack explained.
Next, he pulled out a small box-like device. "This is an early version of the Fenton Finder. It uses satellites to track ghosts-and half-ghosts."
As he said this, it began beeping.
"There are ghosts in the room. Please walk forward." It instructed.
"Nothing to worry about, kids. It's only tracking Abby." Maddie stated. What she didn't know was that it was also tracking Jake. Obviously, she wasn't paying attention to the fact that "ghost" had become plural.
He reached in for yet another device. It was a small metal ball with several red lights and speakers on it. "And this, this is a modern version of the Ecto-Exodus alarm. This one is a portable style. This is an alarm that goes off whenever there is about to be a massive ghost invasion. The only time that it has ever gone off was when the town was overrun by the Ghost King during Amity Park's first major ghost invasion." Jack informed.
Suddenly, a puff of visible breath escapes from both Jake and Abby's mouths. The two (a good distance away from each other) frantically search their surroundings. They stop though when a loud noise blares from the stage. Everyone in the auditorium freezes and stares. In Jack's hand, the little ball is sounding its alarm and flashing red.
Review please! Oh, and I've started working on a very special little suprise for all of you. And if I can get this stupid computer to work the way I want it to, I'll be all set. BTW, this may be a long term suprise.
One last thing. I'm trying to make a few more pictures. If there are any scenes that you want me to make, please tell me.
