He could feel them following him. Picking up speed, he shot towards his house. To anyone he looked more like a blur. The giant Fenton Works sign became more visible in the small distance. Moments later he touched down at the front door. Dani whimpered in his arms. He shifted her to carry her bridal style. Going through the door without opening it, he quietly carried her up the stairs into his room. He gently deposited her on his bed and gave her a once over. No injuries but he could still smell the fear pouring from her. Two rings appeared around his waist and soon he was back to being human.
"So do you want to tell me why you followed me home?" Danny asked, taking his watchful eyes off of his cousin to stare at the trio that followed him. He had nothing against him them but he didn't know why they were back in town.
"No reason." Ember answered before looking around the room acting like she was interested in its' contents when in reality, she was blushing when he gazed at her so intently.
Danny shrugged, muttering a whatever before pushing past them, hands in his pockets as he walked down the stairs two at a time. InthekitchenIgo. Danny thought. The front door banged open and his sister, Valerie, Sam and Tucker bombarded the living room. "Ever heard back of coming in quietly," Danny grunted, leaning against the wall. "You all sounded like a herd of a elephants."
"Hello to you too, little brother," Jazmine cooed as she ran to him and pinched his cheek. He gently smacked her hand away from his cheek then drew her in a hug. When he let her go, Valerie took the chance to jump at him. She was a strong little thing for such a small person.
He decided to tease his sister. "Shouldn't I be the eldest, I mean I amtaller than you," He chuckled when she smacked his chest then skipped into the kitchen. He pushed away from the wall and followed his sister. Valerie held onto his arm and followed after. Sam and Tucker fidgeted after them. "So, is there a reason why you guys missed the rest of school?" He raised an eyebrow at the sheepish women. Valerie looked everywhere but him and Jazmine stared intently inside the fridge. He knew how much they love to follow him whenever there's a ghost involved.
"To help you," Valerie huffed, with one hand on her hip. "And to miss school." She poked his chest. She turned around and narrowed her eyes at Sam and her boyfriend. "Though I don't know why theyfollowed us." She spat under her breath as she eyed them critically. The ones she glared at shifted under her sharp gaze.
"So who did you bag this time, Dan?" Jazz asked her brother, bringing out ingredients from the fridge.
"Skulker." He hissed. "He had Dani captive." His eyes turned red and he growled. Taking a deep breath, his eyes turned dark blue, clenching and unclenching his hands, he spoke again. "Along with other 3 that are hiding." He pointed at the hiding trio that stood by the table. Johnny, Kitty and Ember made themselves known and waved. Valerie and Jazmine blinked. Valerie stood on the tips of her toes and whispered in his ear.
"Are they cool?"
Danny looked them over and cocked his head to the side. He stared at them for a few moments before nodding. But someone didn't think so and let out a shrill .
"And what are they doing here?!" No one spoke as they stared at Sam. Tucker tugged at her hand that he held whispering at her. Her face turned red and she whirled around to face him. "No I will not calm down!" Ember snicked with Kitty. Johnny just wrapped his arms around his girlfriend. Jazmine shook her head and went back to making her lunch. Danny felt a shift and looked up at the ceiling, leaning against the fridge.
"Woah, that is a lot of uptight in such a skinny package." Ember smirked, crossing her arms. Sam resembled a red puffer fish. Her teeth grinding.
"Shouldn't you be back in the Ghost Zone?!" She snapped. "No one wants you here!"
"Like you should talk," Valerie muttered aloud. She raised an eyebrow when Sam turned and opened her mouth to snap at her but a soft voice stopped them all in their tracks.
"Danny?"
Danny watched as his cousin, basically his daughter since she was born, made, out of his DNA, come through the ceiling and land in his opened arms. She hugged his neck fiercely.
"Thank you for waking Dani up, it's appreciated." Danny muttered sarcastically.
Dani pulled away and looked up with curiously. She smiled and floated out of his hold. "Danny can I have something to eat?"
He chuckled and nodded his head to his sister. "You gotta ask Jazz, small fry." He grinned when Dani stuck her tongue at him and flew to Jazmine. Shaking his head in amusement, he cracked his knuckles and rolled his neck. "Time to go back now."
"Go where?" Ember asked before she sputtered. "It's not like I'm concerned at least I mean you've grown big and what not and I'm gonna stop talking now."
Danny eyes stared at her face before she turned around to smack her friends that were giggling in the background. Was it him or was she blushing? He decided to answer anyway.
"I'm going to give Skulker a warm welcome before escorting him back to the Ghost Zone." He grinned maliciously. Dani popped in front of him.
"Can I come too Danny, please!" She begged with big blue eyes. He blinked and coughed nervously. When he tried to look away, she faced him again. Teary, wide blue eyes shining back at him. He never wanted to bring Dani, but she's not making it easy. Signing, he nodded tiredly. Dani celebrated with a whoop and went back to eating but much quicker. Valerie came up with an amused expression. She raised her eyebrow at Danny.
"Another female that has you wrapped around her finger, huh, Fenton." She wiggled her eyebrows before laughing when Danny groaned, rubbing his face.
"It's the eyes Val. How can I say no to those eyes. The problem is that they're the exact copy of my own but lighter and it's being used against me."
Valerie patted Danny's back before giggling. "Guess me and Jazz need to invite her in our club then." She smiled cheekily. Danny smiled before shaking his head. His feet began to levitate off of the ground. Dani was already right beside him as they flew out from the house and above the building. He shot towards the ally way with Dani following before touching down. He smirked when he saw that Skulker was just getting out of his ice cage and was about to pack, muttering angrily. Two rings appeared at his waist and he was back in his ghost form. Dani right behind him in the same old suit he had before he changed in a female version. Her neon green eyes glowed. Her hair was much longer. He noted that her figure was growing and was going to ask Jazz and Val for some help with that. Danny's red eyes glowed with hers as they walked into the ally way. There was a bright green explosion then screams of pain. Then soon it was total silence.
