MICRO-MANAGEMENT
A beautiful morning in Amity Park, Danny and Tucker were running through the park in their gym clothes. They were in the middle of Gym Class and all of the class was preparing for the President's Test on Physical Fitness, but Danny and Tucker weren't exactly the fittest or the strongest people of the class.
"So…how's…the four minute…mile coming Tucker?" Danny asked through deep breaths as they continued to run.
"Nine minutes…and counting dude" Tucker answered in deep breaths, looking at the stop watch around his neck.
Suddenly Dayla, Sam and Andrew came running up in front of them, smirking as they were taking the lead. Those three were obviously the fittest of the group.
"This is just embarrassing" Tucker said.
"I know! How are you two gonna pass the President's Test on Physical Fitness, if you can't even pass us?" Sam asked as they started running through an alleyway.
"So what? I have super powers! Why should I even care?" Danny retorted.
A blast suddenly was shot at their feet and they were blown back onto the pavement, while Tucker had landed in a rubbish bin. The source of the blast was revealed to be Skulker who was floating above them with his jet engines, grinning madly.
"Hello ghost children! I saw you two running and thought, 'Hey! I should give them something to run from!'" Skulker exclaimed.
Danny blasted an ecto blast and destroyed one of his jets, sending him flying around town wildly.
"Ha! Let's see the President do that!" Danny exclaimed.
"Let's just take care of him bro" Dayla said.
They both changed into their ghost forms and flew after Skulker who had just crash landed into a rubbish bin, he opened the lid and gasped as he saw them coming. Dayla blasted the bin and caused Skulker to fly straight out and hit the wall, Danny then destroyed his other jet engine and then Dayla destroyed his robotic arm and leg causing him to lose balance and fall to the ground.
Danny and Dayla landed in front of him as Sam and Andrew caught up with them. Danny then said, "Hey Skulker without your suit, you're pretty powerless. Maybe you need to learn to rely on your natural abilities"
"They really can come in handy Tin Man" Dayla smirked.
"Tucker hurry up!" Andrew called.
Tucker then came along with the thermos in hand, breathing heavily. Andrew grabbed the thermos and sucked Skulker right into it. He then handed it to Danny.
"Speaking of natural abilities…" Sam began with a smirk.
A few minutes later they were back at the gym at school, Danny was struggling to do chin ups on the pole.
"I think…I liked fighting Skulker…better!" Danny said as he did a chin up. "How many is that?"
"One" Tucker answered.
Sam then came up and easily did five chin ups and then did a flip and landed perfectly, Dayla came along and did the same thing and then Andrew came and did the same thing as well.
They all then ran past the two boys and said, "Hey Danny!"
Danny yelped as he couldn't hold onto the pole any longer and fell to the ground. The next day in the Ghost Zone at Skulker's Island, Skulker was officially angry at Danny and Dayla that he had decided to go all out with his new suit and weapons upgrade, he now had some new blades in his arms, new types of guns and rocket launchers all ready for the hunt.
He then activated a holographic recording of Danny and Dayla from the other day and heard Danny repeat, "Maybe you need to learn to rely on your natural abilities"
The holographic Dayla then repeated, "They really can come in handy Tin Man"
"Let's see how their natural abilities match up to these not natural abilities!" Skulker exclaimed.
He then blasted at the holograms, destroying a rock with one of his new laser cannons. Satisfies with his new weapons, he laughed evilly into the air ready for the hunt to begin. Meanwhile back at Casper High, Danny and Tucker were trying to climb the rope in the gym, but failed miserably at it and then they were face to face with Ms Tetslaff who was really not in the mood.
"Listen up people! This has to be the worst display of physical fitness I have ever seen in all my days at Casper High" Ms Tetslaff exclaimed and then took a huge bite out of a foot long submarine sandwich.
"Apparently somebody doesn't own a mirror" Tucker said jokingly which earned him being knocked down to the ground by a ball from Ms Tetslaff.
"And apparently somebody doesn't own a sense of humour" Danny said.
Danny cringed when he heard her blow her whistle. She then shouted at them, "According to my reports, the only thing funny here is how much you're bringing down your class average!"
"So I'm gonna assign you both fitness buddies. Manson and Knight!" She called. Andrew and Sam then came up and smirked when she said, "You two will help Foley"
"Uh…um…I think I'm coming down with something" Tucker lied weakly.
"Yeah a severe case of ab crunches. Let's go Tuck, we got a lot of work to do" Andrew said and then he and Sam dragged Tucker away.
Danny and Dayla began to laugh at poor Tucker, but then stopped as they came face to face with Dash Baxter. Ms Tetslaff then said, "Baxter and Ms Fenton, you're both gonna have to whip Mr Fenton in shape"
"WHAT?!" Dayla exclaimed in shock.
"Cool! Is broken in half considered a shape?" Dash asked as he picked Danny up by his collar.
The next day at Fenton Works, Jazz was going around the house fighting virtual ghost with the Fenton Virtual Reality Helmet. Maddie and Jack invented it so ghost hunters can train to fight ghost, but for Jazz it was the perfect way to keep in shape.
Jack was in the living room working on a blaster type invention and frowned at the noises Jazz was making. He then exclaimed, "Jasmine keep it down! I'm trying to calibrate the Fenton Crammer!"
"The Fenton Crammer?" Maddie asked as she came in.
"It shrinks ghosts in size and hopefully threaten them a little" Jack explained.
"Uh huh. Then why don't you call it the Spectre Shrinker?" Maddie asked.
"Because that's what the ghost will expect me to call it" Jack answered.
The weapon was suddenly kicked out of Jack's hand by Jazz as she went past them, Jack ran quickly and caught the weapon before it came crashing to the floor and just as Jazz was about to come past him again, he stopped her.
"Careful! That helmet's for battle training, not exercise missy" Jack scolded.
Jazz removed the helmet and said, "Sorry dad. Virtual ghost hunting is the perfect way to keep my cardio up"
"Well if anybody needs me I'll be working on the crammer in the Op Centre" Jack said as he grabbed the box of pizza and went upstairs.
"Speaking of cramming…" Jazz pointed out. Her and Maddie then laughed at the joke, but then stopped when they heard Jack yell, "I heard that!"
Meanwhile in the backyard Danny and Dayla were watching Sam and Andrew train Tucker for the test. Sam was making him do push ups while pressing down on his back with her foot.
"Come on Foley! Keep going" Sam said with a smirk as he struggled to do a single push up.
"I can't! Your boot weighs a ton!" Tucker complained. "How about a hand Danny?"
Danny and Dayla both smirked and clapped for him. He just glared and said sarcastically, "Oh you're both hilarious"
"Hey when you got superpowers, you can afford to be" Danny said.
"Well we better start training bro" Dayla said. Danny scoffed and asked, "Seriously why should I care about some stupid fitness test?"
"Because if you fail, I fail" Dash sneered as he jumped over the fence.
Tucker got up and said, "And if he fails at gym, that would blemish his stellar D minus GPA"
Dash walked over and shoved Tucker to the ground by his head. Danny lowered down and whispered, "You don't have superpowers. You don't get to be hilarious"
Dash picked Danny up and held him in the air by his head.
"Uh we better get going. Dayla we still on for the movies tomorrow night?" Andrew asked.
Dayla walked up and gave him a kiss on the cheek as she answered, "Definitely. I better make sure that Dash doesn't hurt Danny"
"Right. Okay guys, it's our que to run" Andrew said.
"What do you mean by run? I'm not running anywhere…." Tucker began to protest, but then stopped when Sam pulled out a brand new PDA. "Why do you have the Smart Tech 5000? It's not even on the market yet!"
"The real question is are you fast enough to get it from me?" Sam asked with a smirk.
Andrew and Sam then started running, with Tucker chasing after them begging for them to give him the high tech PDA.
Dash scoffed, "Losers! And speaking of losers"
"Dash! Like it or not, we have to work together to train Danny, he can't pass the test if you hurt him" Dayla scolded.
Suddenly Danny and Dayla's ghost senses went off and behind a smirking Dash was Skulker! He grinned as he fired nine missiles at them. As Danny and Dayla gasped, Dash finally noticed Skulker behind them and screamed, Danny then turned Dash intangible and pulled him down while Dayla jumped out of the way just as the missiles hit.
Dash fainted on top of Danny as he made them tangible, they were sitting in a huge crater. Good thing Dash didn't notice anything, he then stirred awake as Skulker prepared to fire more weapons at them.
"We have to get away from Dash" Dayla whispered to Danny.
"AHHH! GHOST!" Danny faked cried.
They all started running when Dayla then faked, "RUN! IT'S A GHOST!"
Skulker immediately started flying after them all, firing blasts at them unaware that Jack had heard their fake cried form within the Ops Centre, he threw a slice of pizza onto the side of the table and immediately grabbed onto the Fenton Crammer.
Danny and Dayla ran into an alleyway, they both then ran into another part of it to hide so they could change forms, they watched as Dash ran past them screaming as Skulker chased after him. They changed into their ghost forms and then flew after them, they were right near Fenton Works when Jack opened the window and saw Skulker chasing Dash. He grinned and switched the crammer to cram and aimed.
He then fired at Skulker, missing and instead hit a rubbish bin and a mail box shrinking them. Skulker landed in front of Dash, cutting off his escape, he aimed a laser gun at him and was about to fire when Danny and Dayla charged right for him. He sensed them coming however and grabbed them by the collar of their jumpsuits and shoved them into the ground. He was about to cut them with his blades, when Jack fired his weapon and hit Danny and Dayla dead on, shrinking them to the size of a mouse, he then fired and hit Skulker shrinking him as well.
"Awesome!" Dash cheered.
Jack then fired again and hit Dash, shrinking him as well. Dash at first was confused, but when he turned around and saw an old soft drink can was bigger than him, he realised what happened and began to panic.
"I'm…I'm puny! Oh I don't do puny!" He cried.
Skulker, Danny and Dayla stood up and looked at themselves in confusion.
"What is this? What did you two do?" Skulker demanded.
"We didn't! He did!" They both answered as they gestured at Jack now closing the window.
Skulker grinned and activated his blades, "Big or small, I will still have your heads in my trophy room"
"Uh nice image. Here's a better one" Danny said as he and Dayla then blasted him back with a combined ecto blast.
He screamed as he hit straight into the soft drink can and then fell to the ground. Danny and Dayla both then flew above Dash.
"We have to move" Dayla said.
Dash smiled and said, "Danny and Dayla Phantom! If I weren't so terrified, this would be really cool"
"Uh thanks" They both said.
Danny then picked up Dash and they immediately began to fly, Skulker recovered and began to fly after them. Skulker fired missiles at them, Dash screamed as they flew into the air avoiding the missiles and flew through a hole in the fence, and Skulker turned intangible and phased through the fence, firing more blasts at them. They dodged and then flew over the grass hoping to avoid detection from Skulker, he however had track of them with his goggles.
"Oh man! We're dead! Dead!" Dash panicked.
"No! No we're not! All we have to do is get into Fenton Works and unshrink ourselves" Danny said.
A gush of wind suddenly blew at them and pushed them back a bit, they continued to fly for a bit when suddenly Danny and Dayla began to glow and they both felt some of their powers deplete and fell out of the sky and on to the ground.
"What just happened?" Dayla asked. Danny answered, "I don't know. Must've been the wind"
They both got up and all of them began to run, Skulker watched them with interest and confusion at what he just saw.
"Hmmm. They seem to be losing their ghostly power" He muttered.
Suddenly a crow grabbed him in his claw and began to fly off, he tried to turn intangible and phase out of the claw but it failed and his powers cancelled out.
"So am I!" He exclaimed. He then grinned when he realised something, "But my suit works fine. Advantage Skulker!"
He fired a couple of discs and cuffed the birds claws together, causing it to let him go and just before he hit the ground, he activated his jet and started flying back to Fenton Works, ready to continue the hunt.
Meanwhile, Andrew and Sam stood on a brick wall above Tucker. Andrew attached the PDA to the Fenton Fisher line and held it in front of him. Tucker jumped trying to grab the PDA, but missed as Andrew kept reeling it up and down.
"You two can't…make me do this forever you know" Tucker complained.
"We don't need to make you do anything, you're making yourself" Andrew said with a smirk.
"You want this brand new high tech PDA don't ya?" Sam teased.
"Yes! Yes!" Tucker begged.
Andrew then handed Sam the Fenton Fisher as she shouted, "Then jump geek boy! Jump!"
The same bird that tried to capture Skulker managed to get the cuffs undone and then swooped down and grabbed the PDA from the fishing line and flew off.
"HEY! COME BACK WITH THAT PDA!" Tucker shouted and then began to run after it.
"Should we stop him?" Sam asked. Andrew chuckled, "Nope. Let's just use this as another training tool for him"
They both nodded and then followed after them. Meanwhile Dash and Danny stood on the ground, while Dayla sat on piece of grass looking over the field.
"How much further?" Dash asked.
"Ten feet boys, or at this rate ten years" Dayla answered.
They all suddenly heard the noise of jet packs, they all turned to see Skulker laughing and firing more missiles straight for them. Danny and Dash climbed up as Dayla acted quickly and blasted some grass in the air as a shield, when the missiles exploded on the blades of grass the force knocked them back all the way to the front of the back door. They all stood up and looked at the giant door.
"Dash hang on to me and Dayla, we'll use our powers to phase us through the door" Danny said.
But when they tried to do it, it didn't work and they just slammed into the door instead.
"Okay we can't blame the wind this time. Something is wrong with our powers" Danny said.
Suddenly a knife planted itself right next to Danny's face, almost cutting him. They all looked up at a grinning Skulker who then started to use a machine and threw more knives at them. Dayla grabbed onto Dash and pulled him out of the way before a few knives could hit him.
"He's closing in guys! We gotta find another entrance" Dayla said as she and Danny then started firing ecto blasts.
"Over there! There's a mouse hole!" Dash exclaimed and began running towards it. Danny and Dayla both asked in confusion, "We have mice?"
They both then ran next to Dash who shouted, "FLY!"
"WE CAN'T!" They both shouted back. Dash then asked in a panic, "What?!"
"Just run! It's good for your heart" Danny said.
They all ran into the mouse hole, narrowly avoiding the next wave of knives. Danny and Dayla lit their hands giving them some light in the dark hole, they all began to look around for an exit hole.
"What kind of mouse hole is this?" Dash asked in disappointment. "Where's matchbox sofa and the coffee made from a spool of thread?"
"You watch way too many cartoons" Dayla commented.
They both suddenly heard growling and snarling behind them, they turned around to see a huge mouse behind them and it wasn't exactly happy to see some intruders in its home. They backed up slowly and then suddenly heard something like a machine going, they turned to see a grinning Skulker blocking them off and aiming weapons right at them, they were trapped.
As Dayla held her lit hand against the mouse, Danny had his hand up against Skulker.
"GET BACK!" They both demanded and then tried to fire ecto blasts at Skulker and the mouse, but both their second hands frizzled out and no blast came out.
"Oh man! That shrink way must've shorted out our powers!" Danny exclaimed.
"Maybe you need to rely on your natural abilities, after all they come in handy" Skulker mimicked.
"Will you just let it go?!" They both shouted as their lit hands dimmed out and they all faded into darkness.
"I CAN'T SEE!" Dash shouted.
"Dash get down!" Dayla shouted.
"Say farewell ghost brats!" Skulker shouted.
Skulker pulled out a flare and lit the room again, standing in front of him was not Danny and Dayla but Dash only.
"Where'd the ghost kids go?" Dash asked panicking again.
"Well I was hunting the ghost children, but I can easily just mount your tiny head in my trophy room" Skulker said with a grin as he pointed his blaster at him.
"Ewe!" Dash exclaimed in disgust.
"Ewe is right" He heard voices from behind, he turned to see the mouse now had green eyes and realised that both Danny and Dayla had taken control over the mouse.
"GET BACK!" They both ordered Dash, he ducked as they swung the tail and knocked Skulker into the wall causing him to drop the flare.
Dash picked it up and said, "Sweet! That's awesome! You two took over the mouse"
The mouse then began to convulse as they said, "Not….for long!"
With one final push, the mouse forced them out of its body and they hit the ground hard. The mouse then growled really angry and started heading towards them. Danny then noticed the exit hole beside them, he then grabbed the flare off Dash and stood in front of the mouse.
"RUN YOU TWO! GO!" He shouted and then Dayla and Dash ran and stood in front of the exit hole.
Knowing that they were out of the way, Danny ran and grabbed a piece of cheese off the ground and headed towards the exit mouse hole.
"Uh dude hold these" Danny said as he placed the cheese and the flare in Skulker's hands.
He ran for the hole and the mouse then stopped in front of Skulker, growling at his new target. The whole place then went dark as the flare dimmed out. Danny, Dayla and Dash exited the mouse hole and now found themselves in the kitchen.
"Okay just follow our lead and…" Dayla began to say when suddenly they heard the sound of Dash crying.
They turned to see him sitting on the floor holding his face in panic, "I can't do this! I can't! Everything's bigger than me!"
"Dash" Danny tried. Dash then continued, "And you two, you're both losing your powers! We're doomed! Doomed!"
"DASH! STOP! LISTEN TO US!" Danny shouted in his face. He then took a deep breath and calmed down, "Why'd you come to Fenton Works?"
"I'm one of Danny Fenton's fitness buddies" Dash answered. "His sister and I were supposed to help him because he was too puny, weak, wimpy and scrawny and…"
"Okay! Can you get to the point?" Dayla asked hearing enough.
"He's not strong enough to pass a fitness test" Dash finished.
"Well and I can't believe I'm saying this, but we need your help because neither of us are strong enough to do this alone" Danny said.
"So let's be fitness buddies and get ourselves out of this mess" Dayla said as she and Danny held their hands out to him.
He smiled and accepted the hand and stood back up, there was suddenly a bright flash of light at Danny and Dayla's feet and before they knew it their boots were had changed back to their sneakers.
"Hey what happened to your feet?" Dash asked.
"Uh…They're special high speed ghost shoes" Dayla lied nervously.
The ground suddenly started to shake and they looked up to the see the source of the earthquake was Jazz who was currently in the kitchen still exercising. She removed the helmet and started shaking her head getting rid of the sweat on her head, but what she didn't realise that her sweat had now become giant rain drops for Danny, Dayla and Dash! They all screamed and scattered narrowly avoiding the rain drops and ran underneath the kitchen table for shelter.
The rain finally stopped, but just when they thought their troubles were over Skulker came out of the mouse riding the mouse as if it were a horse.
"TO THE HUNT!" He shouted in excitement and then whipped the reins, making the mouse run and began to chase them around the kitchen.
Meanwhile in the park Andrew and Sam smirked as they counted Tucker doing chin ups, trying to grab the PDA out of the crow's nest but failed as the bird kept attacking his hands.
"Seven" Andrew counted. Tucker shouted, "OW!"
"Eight" Sam counted. Tucker shouted again, "OW!"
"Would you two please stop counting and help me?" Tucker begged.
"Sorry. No pain, no gain" Sam said.
Back at Fenton Works Dash, Danny and Dayla continued to run all around the kitchen as Skulker chased them on his well vermin steed.
"Keep running whelps! I'm about to make mouse meat out of you!" Skulker exclaimed.
"It's mincemeat bonehead!" Dayla corrected.
"Not this time it's not!" Skulker retorted.
They all turned the corner, but Skulker was going so fast that the mouse didn't slow down quick enough and they both slammed into the wall. They both then gasped at the sight of Maddie towering over them, with a broom in her hand.
"You filthy animal!" She shouted. "You are not leaving mouse droppings all over my clean kitchen!"
She slammed the broom down on the floor, Skulker and the mouse dodges the blow but then coming Danny, Dayla and Dash's way was a huge dust bunny that came from the broom. They all jumped right over it and dodged.
"Woah! Nice jump" Dash complimented.
"Thanks!" They both said.
They suddenly felt something and looked down to see a bright flash of light at their pants, the rings went up and now their pants had changed back to their jeans. They both realised that also because of the ray, it's reverting them back to their human forms.
"Hey what's with your pants?" Dash asked. Danny then lied, "Uh it's casual Friday"
"Today's Saturday" Dash pointed out feeling really confused.
Suddenly they all got caught in another dust bunny and screamed as they rolled everywhere, finally they managed to detach themselves from it and found themselves sitting on some grass.
"Oh man! We're back outside!" Dash exclaimed.
Dayla then felt the grass and said, "Hang on, this grass isn't real. It's fake"
They all suddenly heard the ground rumble and shake, they then watched as Jack placed some golf balls down on the fake grass. Danny and Dayla then realised that he was about to do his weekly golf practice!
"Where do we hide?" Dash ask panicking again.
"Have you ever seen him play golf? The only safe place is the hole!" Danny shouted and they all began to run for the golf hole.
Jack began his practice and by practice, he was just hitting all the balls at random places by swinging his club madly everywhere, they all jumped into the golf hole just as Danny and Dayla's powers flickered off and on for a few seconds. They looked up and watched as all the balls passed over the top of the hole.
"Man! Is everybody in this family bad at sports?" Dash asked. Danny and Dayla gave him a glare, while he wasn't looking.
Meanwhile at the Amity Park Recreation Centre, Tucker was in the first aid office getting his hands bandaged from all the pecking the bird did. They all came out of the office, Tucker held the PDA in his bandaged hands.
"I can't believe I got pecked at by a bird" Tucker said. "But at least I got my PDA"
But just when he was happy about finally receiving his reward, the PDA broke in half and he discovered it was made from nothing but cardboard.
"It's fake?" He asked in shock. Sam smirked, "But you have to admit, it was great way to get you into shape. Plus Andrew and Dayla handled designing it"
"One of our proudest works" Andrew pointed out.
"Yeah you're right Sam, but since my hands are bandaged I'm probably going to need help going to the bathroom" Tucker said with a smirk.
"TAXI!" Sam and Andrew both shouted completely disgusted.
Back at Fenton Woks Danny, Dash and Dayla were climbing up the stairs. They stopped halfway to take a breather when suddenly, the top part of their costumes changed to their usual t-shirts only they were black and had their logo on the front.
"How many costume changes are you two going to through? What is this Vegas?" Dash asked really confused.
Suddenly Skulker flew in front of them with his jet packs, he then aimed and fired a few missiles at them, and they all dodged and climbed the rest of the stairs really fast, they all then ran into Danny's room and slammed the door shut before Skulker could even get in. They all then climbed onto the window sill near the desk.
"Hurry guys! Out the window and up to the Op Centre! Dayla go with Dash" Danny said.
They both nodded and started climbing up the antenna rope that lead to the top of the Op Centre, Danny then noticed that Skulker was heading right towards Dayla and Dash outside, he then saw his packet of chips and smirked as he got an idea.
"Climb faster Dash!" Dayla screamed as she noticed Skulker catching up to them.
Danny pulled the bag of chips and shouted, "Hey Skulker! Still think your abilities beat ours?"
He then tipped the bag over and allowed all the chips to fall, Skulker yelped as he was hit by the storm of chips.
"Lime and vinegar? Who eats those?!" He shouted as he could taste them a little bit.
He then blasted the chips with his missiles but still got hit by the tiny bits, suddenly he was caught up in the empty chip bag and dragged all the way down to the ground. He ripped open the bag with his blades and then roared in anger. Danny had just started climbing catching up with Dash and Dayla.
"We don't have much time!" Danny shouted.
Danny then swung on the rope and jumped landing on the ledge near the window, Dayla then swung and jumped landing right next to him and finally Dash jumped onto the ledge, but then he nearly lost his balance and fell backwards but was saved when Danny and Dayla grabbed onto his arms and pulled him back up. Suddenly the back part of their hair turned black.
"Oh great! We're one make over away from revealing our secret identities" Dayla whispered to Danny. He then whispered back, "On the bright side, Dash is a total moron to notice"
They all then saw Skulker flying up to them, they all ran to the window and pushed it open together.
"We did it! What do guys think we just bench? Proportionally?" Dash asked.
"I don't know dude, I'm not that good at math" Danny said.
Skulker appeared behind them and sneered, "Soon you will not be that good at breathing either!"
Just when they thought they were doomed, the mouse from earlier suddenly jumped out of the window and started biting down on Skulker's arm.
"GET OFF OF ME!" Skulker demanded.
Suddenly his jet packs were activated and he was forced to speed off in the other direction, Danny, Dash and Dayla then ran inside and allowed the window to close. They all then saw the gun looking machine on the lab table.
"That's gotta be the device" Dayla said.
"And that's how we're gonna get to it" Dash pointed out as he gestured at the pizza sitting there, the cheese dripping down made the perfect rope for them to use.
Wasting no more time, they all ran to it and started climbing the melted cheese rope, they all then heard Skulker and the mouse crash through the window and watched as he stood up and deactivate his now broken jet pack.
"Thank you for opening the window for me. Your services are no longer needed" Skulker said with a grin and then tied the mouse to the wall with ectoplasmic goo.
He then ran over and started climbing the cheese laughing, "You'll never be able to climb fast enough to save yourself!"
Danny and Dayla reached the top of the table first, but then suddenly they were reverted back to their human forms and before Dash could see them as he started coming up to the top, they ran inside the machine and hid from him.
"Hey where'd you guys go?" Dash called when he finally reached the top.
"We're both in here!" Danny shouted. Dayla then said, "We need you to pull the trigger quick!"
"You two okay in there?" Dash asked.
"Just switch to un-cram and push the trigger!" Danny called out.
Dash nodded and went to do it, he flipped the switch to un-cram just as Skulker reached the top of the table and started advancing towards them.
"You two can't escape me! I'm faster than you!" Skulker shouted. Dash ignored him and headed back to the trigger.
"I'm stronger than you! And your both weak! Weak!" He finished.
Dash had finally pushed the trigger and in a bright flash of light, Danny and Dayla were back to normal size and changed back to their ghost forms. They both smirked at the tiny Skulker.
"Actually thanks to my sister and fitness buddy, I'm a lot stronger than I thought" Danny said.
"So am I" Dayla added.
Danny picked Skulker up in his hand, Dayla then walked over and opened the freezer of the refrigerator and with just a flick of his finger, Danny sent Skulker flying straight into the freezer and then Dayla closed the door.
Dayla then picked up the gun and changed Dash back to normal size. Dash then said, "Way to go! I knew I could count on you two"
"Yeah well without our powers that made two of us. So thanks, I couldn't have asked for a better fitness buddy" Danny said. Dayla then added, "Neither could I. We actually made a really good team. Maybe you're not that bad after all"
"Thanks! Hey what do you say we wait around and stuff Danny Fenton's head in the toilet and then we wait for his sister and throw eggs at all her artwork in her room?" Dash suggested then began laughing.
Danny and Dayla frowned at that, Danny then took the Fenton Crammer from Dayla and shrank Dash again. They both then heard his tiny voice shout, "I don't do puny!"
Monday came and it was time for the fitness test, Tucker and Danny got ready to run and with the blow of Ms Tetslaff whistle they both started to run coming together in first place in front of all the others, they stopped and did five pull ups on the bar and then started climbing up the wall using the rope.
"HA! Just like climbing the wires up to the Op Centre" Danny said with determination. Tucker then exclaimed, "Or chinning up to a killer birds nest on a tree branch of empty lies!"
They both jumped over the wall and sprinted to the finishing line. They passed and Ms Tetslaff stopped her timer as soon as they finished.
"Well it's not record time, but it's good enough to pass" Ms Tetslaff said.
"Thanks" Danny and Tucker panted out.
She then turned to Dayla, Sam, Tucker and Andrew with medals and said, "Your four pass as well. Good job whipping these wimps into shape"
They all grabbed them. Dash then frowned at Dayla, Sam and Andrew and said, "You three realise this is the last thing we'll ever do together"
"Count on it! Does this come in black?" Sam asked.
"Well Dayla now that it's over, you up for some ice cream?" Andrew asked putting arm around her shoulder.
"Absolutely" Dayla answered. They both smiled romantically and kissed each other, ignoring Dash's gagging noise.
"Well ghost beaten…" Danny panted. Tucker then panted, "Test passed"
"And self-worth restored. Ready?" Danny asked. Tucker answered, "Yeah"
They both then fell to the ground in pure exhaustion, Maddie and Jack were watching from the bleachers enjoying a picnic.
"I'm so proud! Our boy finally has the physical prowess of a sixty year old president! Here's to you son!" Jack exclaimed raising his glass in the air.
"Here Jack let me freshen up that root beer" Maddie offered.
Jack accepted the ice, unaware that Skulker was frozen inside one of the ice cubes. He screamed as Jack started bringing the drink to his mouth and began swallowing it.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
