Chapter 3: New Traitors, New Friends, Scared Trust

This chapter introduces darkness bandit's character. Kelsey (Her character) is a ghost halfa, she is fifteen.

It can't be true, Kelly thought.

But it is, the other half of her mind thought.

No! No! NO! Her thoughts were screaming at each other as if there was a battle going on in her head.

You know it's true! One of the voices's screamed. You know she did it.

No, it can't be it can't be true. She was my friend, she saved my life! The other argued.

Don't you see? It was all part of her plan, earn your trust and then stab you in the back. You saw how quiet and frightened she got after the ghost girl. Why won't you believe yourself? The voice reasoned.

"I can't and I won't," I whispered the last part out loud, but I knew it was all lies. I knew that I had already figured it out. Amber the one I called friend and ally, was an enemy and traitor!

Tears were beginning to form in Kelly's eyes and she felt horrible. That was what Amber had been trying to tell her she was sure of it. Now she was gone.

Suddenly a soft voice spoke and Kelly jolted up transforming into Ivy, her attack form, by instinct. She looked around, nothing. Had she imagined it, no there it was again a soft voice. Comforting and lovely, but also had a hint of confidence and power.

She looked around again, confused. No one was there; it was just her, Addie, the Dragwa, and the winds. She almost opened her mouth to ask Amber if she was going crazy, but stopped. Amber wasn't here anymore, Amber wasn't her friend anymore.

Finally Ivy couldn't take it anymore; she changed back into Kelly and fell to her knees letting the tears, flow like waterfalls and the sobs shake her body. She couldn't take it anymore she was losing everyone she loved and cared for. She looked over at the Dragwa who was still out cold.

Addie's still with me, Kelly thought. Addie's my friend, right? Kelly was sure of it, Addie had to be her friend.

She felt a hand on her shoulder and instantly she lashed out her arm, determined to face this new threat, but her hand was stopped by a gloved one and she looked up to see a silver haired ghost, with dazzling green eyes edged with purple. Her hair was up in a ponytail, but it curled at the end of it and her lose bangs curled in also. She had on a black and green Hazmat suit (The suit looks like Dani's, but no DP logo) and she was smiling. The girl looked strong, but still beautiful and she looked like the type of person who wasn't scared to fight. She looked about fourteen maybe fifteen, but Kelly was unsure.

Kelly gave her a confused look, and she laughed. Her laugh was kind and comforting, but Kelly was carefully, Amber had scared her trust and she was ready for anything now. The girl reached out her other hand to shake, but Kelly didn't take it she didn't even look at it. She didn't trust this girl, at least not yet.

The girl raised an eyebrow and put her hand down, she also let go of Kelly's. Then she sat down next to her, green eyes full of sympathy, and worry.

Green eyes like Amber's, Kelly thought. They both have green eyes. She looked at the Dragwa, who looked peaceful, but Kelly could see the pain etched in her face. They both have green eyes.

The tears began to flow again, the sobs began to sound, and she was lost again. She remembered Amber's words, came back to her. The one's she had spoken in her sleep, "No, I'm not a spy. Why can't you just help me, I may have been a hunter, but no more." It had been a lie, even in her sleep Amber had been lying.

Then Danny's words came back to her, "Kelly keep Amber safe, she means a lot to Black Tooth." She had failed to keep Amber safe; she should have noticed what was happening.

The tears began again, and to her surprise she felt a hand wipe them away. She looked up to see the ghost girl, smiling at her. "What's wrong?" She asked. Looking at Kelly.

"It none of your business!" Kelly snapped, pushing the girl away who threw up her hands in a don't-hit-me manner. Kelly scowled at the girl, who does she think she is. Kelly thought, does she just think that she can just waltz up to me and be my friend. No I gave up that about three minutes ago, she'll leave me like Amber. Kelly scowled at the name. She didn't see the big black hole of hate she was starting to dig.

Kelly changed back into Ivy, and glared at the girl eyes glowing violently as she made her way over to Addie. The girl looked at Ivy worried and backed up. Carefully Ivy bent down and picked up Addie who shuffled slightly in her arms. With one last glare at the girl she took off, flying into the air.

But, she knew instantly that she was too weak and Addie too heavy and crashed into the ground. She looked back she had only flown one maybe two feet and the green purple rimmed eyes were still watching her, but now the girl's smile was a smirk. She began to walk forward.

Ivy glared at her, but let the girl approach her, to help. The girl knelt down next to her and Addie and asked, "Are you ready for help now?"

Ivy nodded and asked, "What's your name and why are you here?" It came out more as a demand.

The girl looked at her and said, "My name's Kelsey, but in this form I go by the name Streak. As for what I'm doing here, I was sent to rescue some new halfas as well as some old. Are you here to help?"

Ivy nodded and said, "I set out to rescue my friend Nick and if I can a girl named Emily. Then Danny Phantom got caught as well."

This was news to Streak, Ivy could tell by the shock on her face, "What!" She cried. "We're going to fall apart without him. What about Sam, Tucker, and Jazz? His friends and sister."

Ivy felt the frown appear on her face, and the shadows seem to move across it like a darkness was seeping through her skin. "Sam's dead, I watched her give her life for Danny I have no idea who Tucker and Jazz are. At least I don't know them."

Ivy watched the emotions play across Streak's face, shock, disbelief, fear, and then anger. Her eyes flared and the purple rimming seemed to expand and cover more of the greenness in her eyes. Ivy shuddered and watched her eyes, go back to normal.

Streak sighed and said, "Okay then who is your friend behind you?"

Ivy looked over her shoulder to where she had laid Addie and sighed, "This is Addie, she's a Dragwa, and she was also the only one I could rescue. I had a key and you see I-"

Streak cut her off, "You have a what?"

Ivy looked at her and said, "A key see?" She reached into her pocket and discovered it was gone. She searched frantically and even turned human to check those pockets, she found a note, on it written in fast sloppy handwriting was. . .

Dear Kelly,

I so sorry, I had no choice. I tried to tell you that I was the traitor, but I couldn't.

They're making me do it, plus I need to do it. I need them back, I need my life back.

Kelly scowled at this. This was her life, she was a halfa.

I'm sorry I took the key, really I am.

Kelly rolled her eyes sure she was.

I took it when you were out, and the Dragwa wasn't looking. The Dragwa, keep her safe, keep yourself safe, save Nick, please.

Kelly's face darkened why should Amber care about them.

Also about Nick, it was a deal, a set-up. I give them Nick, I get my life back. Now I'm gone, good luck.

If not your friend, your enemy,

Amber

Kelly's fist lit up in a flash and the note was destroyed by an ectoblast. Kelly scowled and punched a rock, stupid, stupid, stupid Amber! Why did she have to do it?

Kelly felt an arm on her shoulder and looked up to see the girl, Streak, smiling at her. Kelly looked away, but soon another hand was on her other shoulder, and she looked to see Addie. Addie's other hand was held out in a help-you-up gesture.

Kelly took it and looked from Addie to Streak and back to Addie, finally for the first time since Amber's leaving, she smiled. She had new friends, but she also had new traitors. She looked at Streak and said, "Can I see your human half?"

Streak smiled and nodded. Two green rings rimmed with purple appeared around her body and began to travel up and down. When they were done Streak was gone and Kelsey was here. Her hair was now brown, but the curls, ponytail, soft smile and big green eyes stayed (Minus the purple rimming). Her suit was gone replaced by a black and green tee-shirt and jeans.

Kelsey smiled at her, and said, "Well now that we all look human, let's go save some halfa's!"

The courage in Kelsey's voice made Kelly smile; she looked over at Addie who was smiling too. The three friends put on determined faces and made their way towards the Hunter's prison.
