"What's up dork weed?" I paused in my self training to see Ember flying in. "Just the usual and what's with the nickname?" honestly it didn't bug me since it came from her but still, it was weird. She just shrugged and pointed her thumb at the door. "Wanna go out or are you gonna waste the day training?" I shook my head. "I was actually gonna go check out the human realm again" that earned me a groan.
"Seriously? All you ever do is train, study and go to the human world! We never get to do anything anymore!" now I felt a little bad. "So then do you wanna come with?" Ember looked surprised. "You want me to go to the human world without destroying anything?" I nodded, "yeah it would be fun." how was it that just going to Amity Park for fun instead of world domination was weird? "Nah but tomorrow we are definitely hanging out. No going to Amity Park tomorrow" I gave her a thumbs up and began my flight to the Fenton portal.
On the other side of the portal I saw Jack asleep with Maddie on top of him. "Weird…" I shrugged and flew to Casper high which was where I thought the trio was at. I found them near the entrance of the school and flew towards the. "Boo" I landed next to Danny and his ghost sense went off. "Hi Spirit" they said in unison. They went in through the doors and I followed them. "So this is what a high school is like" I mumbled to myself. I got weird stares from the other students but I didn't really pay much attention to it.
"How is it that you're fourteen but never went to a high school?" asked Danny. I shrugged. "Let's just say that they don't have high schools where I'm from. I'm pretty sure some of the classes I took weren't even the same as yours" we walked to the lockers and the three of them opened it and took out their respective books.
"Hey Danny!" I turned to the voice first and saw Paulina walking towards us waving her hand. "No, I will not go out with you Paulina. We already talked about this, I have a girlfriend" said Danny before Paulina could even say anything. She just walked past us silently. "Is this normal for you guys?" I asked pointing at her. "Yeah pretty much" they shrugged at the same time.
I walked with them to their classes and we saw Dash. "Woah who's the cutie?" he asked pointing to me. "What's he doing?" I asked seriously confused. "He's flirting with you" well this just got weird…
"Can we go?" I asked, I really wanna get out of this. We continued our walk. "So why's Paulina so obsessed with wanting to date Danny?" I laid on my back floating in mid-air. "She just wants to date the famous superhero Phantom so that she could get popular" I stared at Sam. "And she just can't accept it?" she shook her head, "she's desperate to be popular, the shallow witch" she mumbled the last part and Danny pecked her cheek.
"That's weird" I said, staring at the ceiling. "Why?" they all asked simultaneously. "Back home, most people only start dating once they know each other a lot and if they didn't want to date the opposite party would be totally cool with it and they would still be friends. But my school never encouraged dating, they said that dating would affect our studies too much" and here come the weird stares once again and I just shrugged at them.
"I'll never know. No one ever liked me at school, not even my own friends" the subject was dropped and I turned invisible when they entered the classroom. I spent the rest of the day spying on their classes and hanging with them at lunch.
Danny's ghost sense went off during the last period and I followed him to the battle. "Need help?" he nodded and we flew side by side towards the ghost. It was Spectra, strangely by herself, and she was at a kindergarten scaring all the little kids and absorbing their misery. "Scaring little kids, that's a little low for you isn't it Spectra?" the kids cheered when they saw their hero and Spectra growled at us.
"I find that children have a more, satisfying, flavor to their fear" she launched a beam at us. "I'll get the kids out of here" I flew towards the little kids while Danny engaged into battle with Spectra. A stray blast hit a tree and I managed to catch it before it hit a little girl holding a doll.
"Don't worry, I'm here to help" I held out my hand to her and she hesitated slightly to grab it. She took my hand and I turned us intangible and phased through the tree causing it to fall with a loud boom.
I used my shadow manipulation and made a flat platform. "Get on!" I shouted to the other children and they quickly climbed on. Once they were all on board, I flew them to a safer location and flew back to the battle. I was about to help Danny when I remember that there were probably some teachers inside too. I took a quick glance at Danny, he would be able to handle her without me, and phased into the building.
"Is anyone in here?" there was a light coming from the teacher's lounge and I peeked inside. The teachers were all huddled into a corner, all scared out of their wits. "Calm down, I'm going to get you out of here" spoke to soon, I got hit with a scratch from behind. It was Bertrand in Jaguar form. Thinking quickly, I blasted the wall and made a huge hole.
"Get out now! I moved the kids to a few block from here!" they acknowledged and ran out the hole. I blasted Bertrand with a shadow beam and flew towards Danny. "Danny!" Spectra got distracted from me for a while but then got a creepy smile. "I sense a lot of misery coming from you. You would make an amazing meal!" say what now?
"Bertrand!" I got another attack from behind and a blast from Spectra. I shot a blast at Spectra and dodged another hit from Bertrand. They're coordinated; I'll have to watch out for that. Another exchange of hits and they got a lucky shot. I got hit in the head by Spectra's blast and crashed into the swing set.
The swing got destroyed and I was too distracted to turn intangible to avoid it. They took the opportunity to shock me and I passed out after that.
