Wow, almost two weeks. Yeah, i know I'm late, but there's a little suprise at the bottom of this.
Almost instantaneously, the whole auditorium erupts into panicked screams and fearful chatter.
"Venus flytrap, people! Calm down!" Mr. Taylors shouted above everyone else.
The crowd's screams faded into soft mumblings. Maddie looked like she was about to issue some comforting words, but she was cut off when the form of the famous Danny Phantom phased in from the roof over the platform and landed hastily on the stage next to his parents.
"Mom, Dad, there's a million ghosts out there!" Danny reported panicky. This worried the parents. Their son rarely got this way anymore, meaning that this must've been really bad. "The last time that this many ghosts left at once was…"
Danny was cut off by a small blue-skinned ghost that was donning jean overalls and a pink hat and shirt. Her black hair was done up in small, spiky pig-tails.
"BEWARE!"She warned in her high, squeaky voice. "The King of all Ghosts has returned once again! He's already torn up our world and he is coming here soon!"
With that, the little ghost flew off. A new level of panic swept over the audience. They had all been taught about the Ghost King incident. Actually, they were taught a lot about Amity Park's ghostly past in their history class. From what they were told, he was really, really, really bad news.
"All of you need to stay here! Mr. and Mrs. Fenton are going to protect you!" He ordered the teens. Then, he turned to his parents. "Mom, Dad, I need you guys to set up a ghost shield around the school and make sure no one get out. I'm going to see what I can do with the rest of the town."
"Dad, I want to help!" Abby begged, having just ran onto the stage.
"It's too dangerous, Abby." The ghost man (A/N: jeez, could this get any weirder? First, Shadow is being called ghost boy and now Danny is being called ghost man.) told his daughter.
"But Dad…" She whined.
"No buts." Danny refused. With that, he flew back outside.
Jack and Maddie immediately started on getting a ghost shield up. Abby watched until their backs were turned, then she ran behind the curtain (so no one could stop her) and transformed into her ghostly self. She then ignored her Dad's command and flew outside. Meanwhile, Jake was working on his own escape.
"I'm going to go see if my grandparents need help." He lied, getting up and running toward the stage. He hid behind the large red curtain and, after looking for possible witnesses, preformed his own transition. Once the black rings had cleared, he had been changed into Public Enemy #1, a.k.a. Shadow. He undetectably flew outside as well.
When the young ghost made it out, the first thing he noticed was the utter chaos. More ghosts than he had ever seen in his life were flying quickly away in a blur and the terrified screams of the citizens looking for shelter below echoed through the cool air. He didn't see his Dad or sister anywhere. He decided to fly up to the fleeing ghosts.
"What's happening?!" He shouted out to them.
He was answered by a blast in the back. After tumbling though the air, he whipped around to find Thrasher floating there, her gun smoking from the attack.
"Look, punk, we're all running. One of the most powerful ghosts in the entire Ghost Zone has escaped and is planning on taking over both our worlds. He's already totaled ours and he's almost here. I don't think that even your halfa Dad could save us this time." Thrasher informed.
"Well, this time he has me, Abby, our grandparents, Tori and her Mom…" Shadow retorted.
"Hello? This is Pariah Dark we're talking about. From what my father, Skulker, said, you're Dad barely beat him last time and that was with help from the Ghost Zone as well as some super-suit. He doesn't stand a chance now." Thrashed denied. "If I were you, I'd ditch this place and find somewhere to hide."
Shadow watched with glowing red eyes as his cyborg enemy joined the stream of escaping ghosts. Unfortunately, this left him open to yet another blast in the back.
"Ow! What is it with you people and blasting me in the back?!" Shadow snarled, turning to find his sister floating angrily behind him.
"Should have known that you'd be part of this." Abby growled.
"Part of what?! In case you haven't noticed, all of these ghosts are running. From what I've heard, Pariah's already ripped apart the Ghost Zone and is on his way here! We have to stop him before he arrives!" Shadow exclaimed.
"We?" The ghost girl asked skeptically. "I don't think so. My Dad and I are going to handle this. All you could do was make it worse. Heck, you were probably the one who let him out in the first place!"
"Why on Earth would I do that?!" Shadow snapped.
"You tell me." She argued.
"You know what?! I don't have time for this! If you're not going to do anything, then I will!" The male ghost claimed.
"Oh, and how are you going to do that?"
Shadow's expression suddenly became blank. How was he going to beat one of the most powerful ghosts in all of history?
"See? I knew you didn't have a plan." Abby mocked.
"And you do?" He retorted.
"Well...I…um…that's not the point." Abby responded, her embarrassment poorly hidden.
"Abby!" Danny roared, unexpectedly approaching them. "Didn't I tell you to wait back in the auditorium?"
"I wanted to help!" Abby whined.
"You can't help if you break all your bones!" Danny snapped. "Back to school. Now."
"But what about…" Abby started, but stopped and had to suppress a low growl when she noticed that Shadow was no longer there. "Does that kid teleport or something?" She muttered with frustration. Reluctantly, she followed her Dad's commands and flew back to the school where the mob of incredibly nervous teens was gathered in the auditorium. She flew behind the curtain only to slam into her twin brother.
"Ow, Abby, watch where you're going." Jake barked.
"Why were you back here in the first place?" The girl wondered, changing back into her human self.
"Why are you back here? It's not like you have anything to hide." Jake quickly put in, trying to buy some time.
"I asked first." Abby countered smartly.
"I was…just helping Grandma and Grandpa." The boy fibbed.
Before Abby could say anything else, someone started calling for her brother.
"Jake!" Matt yelled, summoning his friend.
Jake's two best friends ran up to him and Abby took it as her cue to leave.
"Jake, where were you! We couldn't find you anywhere!" Tori scolded.
"I was just helping out my Grandparents with the equipment and everything." The boy responded once again. "By the way, why are you still here? I thought that you'd jet out of here and try to fend off all the ghosts."
"My Mom came in a little while ago. She told me to stay here while she went to go help your Dad." The young huntress informed.
A loud beep suddenly filled the large room, catching the attention of all of the teenagers.
"Attention students, as a safety precaution, you may not leave the building alone, so arrangements are being made for escorts back to your own houses. There are several houses, however, that are not protected by the ghost shield. Those of you who live on the outskirts of Amity Park will either have to make plans to spend the night somewhere else or stay in the school overnight. That is all." The man on the other side of the intercom announced.
"Tori, don't you live on the outskirts of Amity Park?" Matt realized.
"Oh, yeah." Tori remembered. "Can I stay at one of your houses tonight?"
"Do you even have to ask?" Jake joked.
Truthfully, he didn't want her at his house or else she might get suspicious, but she was still his friend, so he had to help her.
"Thanks."
"Attention, would the following students please report to the stage. Erik Baxter, Alana Jameson, Haley Todd, and Aaron Tan. You will be the first group to be escorted back. Your escort will be the Red Huntress." Mr. Taylors reported.
Tori caught a glance of her Mom's battle suit. She stared as her Mom left with the kids stuck to her like glue.
An hour or two later, there were barely any students left. The only ones remaining were Jake, Abby, Matt, and Tori.
"Okay, you four, your escort is here." Mr. Taylors groaned after the constant announcing.
Danny walked over to the four teens. "You kids ready to go?"
"We were ready to go over an hour ago." Abby moaned.
"I'll take that as a 'yes.'" Danny responded.
"Mr. Fenton, can we just fly home?" Tori requested.
"Alright, but you guys are going to have to carry Jake and Matt." Danny replied. He was exhausted from the multiple trips all over town.
"Rock, Paper, Scissors, loser gets Matt." Tori challenged.
"Hey!" The African American boy complained.
The two girls ignored him. "One, two, three!" They chanted. Tori's hand was in the symbol for paper and Abby had rock.
"Oh, darn it." Abby grumbled.
She changed into her ghost form and picked up Matt. Tori activated her black and blue suit, helping Jake onto her hover board.
"Hold on tight." Tori warned her companion.
Jake obediently grabbed onto her shoulders, making both turn away and blush for a moment.
"If you two lovebirds are done, can we get going?" Abby teased.
"WE'RE NOT LOVEBIRDS!" The two chorused, snapping out of their little moment.
Danny barely restrained himself from bursting out in laughter, but a small amused smile managed to creep onto his face. "Ready?"
The four teens nodded. The small group took off, Danny phasing Jake and Tori through the wall.
Okay, now for the suprise that I've spent the last month and a half trying to make. Hope you like it.
Just type in "Adventures after a Mistake" in the Youtube search box. (I tried putting the web adress on here, but that's not working).
