Day Seven

Danny ran down the street, breathing hard after the long distance jog to catch up to the fight taking place. Sometimes he really hated that he couldn't afford a car or some other mode of transport. A motorcycle always seemed cool to him, but he was still trying to save up for a newer, better camera. He was still a few hundred dollars away from being able to afford the one that he had his eye on now for months.

He skidded, nearly fell to the hard asphalt of the street as he reached the fight. Phantom soared overhead, hands blazing green as he charged an ecto blast to fire at the ghost he was fighting. Danny didn't recognize the other ghost that looked like it was wearing some strange metal suit with a flaming neon green Mohawk. The other ghost fired a net at Phantom, who easily dodged it before throwing his energy that spun from his hand in the shape of a disc like a Frisbee.

Danny hurriedly brought the camera to his eye, adjusting the lens as he tracked the ghosts' movements. After a few snaps, he frowned, lowering the camera. "Shit," he mumbled when he realized that the film in his camera was at its end. He glanced quickly up at the fight. Phantom looked like he had the upper hand as he drove the Mohawk ghost back, his latest attack throwing the enemy into the wall of one building.

If he didn't hurry, Danny would miss getting some more shots before the fight ended. He scrambled to search inside his leather side bag for his extra rolls of films. When he found one, he yanked it from the bag, placing it in his mouth when he turned his attention to removing the finished roll from the camera.

Upon hearing a noise behind him, Danny twisted around, his blue eyes glancing around the dark, empty street, but he saw nothing lurking around in the shadows. As he focused back on his camera, the roll of film popped out in his rush to change to a new roll and fell, clattering to the ground. Danny cursed again under his breath, around the roll in his mouth, as he dropped to his knees and searched along the street from the finished roll.

"This isn't my night," Danny muttered after taking the roll out of his mouth and pocketing in his jeans. The finished roll, he discovered, fell underneath a parked car next to him. He reached his arm as far it could go under the car, his fingers just barely able to brush against it. The roll spun out of his reach, and Danny pulled his arm back, grumbling as he got to his feet to try a different angle.

His gaze darted briefly toward the fight as Phantom threw up a shield as a missile from the other ghost tried to blast him away. He would still be able to get a few good shots if he was quick. He started to kneel at the side of the car, hoping that he would be able to reach his roll of film from this angle.

An arm caught him around the waist, yanking him suddenly against another body, a cold body that made him shiver when his back made contact with it. A hand slapped over his mouth before he could shout out in alarm. Danny pulled at the hand covering his mouth and nose with some rough fabric itching at his skin. A sweet scent filled his nose, and he gagged at the smell, feeling sick as his body felt suddenly heavy.

"Shh, just relax," whispered someone into his ear.

Danny turned his gaze, only able to make out red eyes staring at him as his vision swam. His arms dropped to his sides, his body growing limp. What was going on? His mind tried to figure out the answer to that question as he was lifted into someone's arms. Distantly, he heard the clunk of his camera hitting the ground. He struggled to keep conscious, but he was quickly slipping into darkness.
