The trip through the portal was one of the strangest things Danny had ever gone through. Danny had felt his whole body being squeezed like some giant had picked him up. Danny saw glimpses of other places seemingly impossible. How could ponies talk? Or hedgehogs run at the speed of sound?

Suddenly Danny was falling too fast for him to scream. He landed on something soft just as suddenly. Danny sighed in relief. If it had been a hard surface he didn't know it he'd survive.

"Danveh geth off mev vow." Someone muttered underneath him angrily.

Danny jumped to his feet and blushed. He accidentally landed on Sam.

Sam got up a dusted herself off... Only to get landed on by Tucker and Jazz. Danny stifled his laughter.

Jazz and Tucker both scrambled to get off their friend, resulting in the two of them falling on the goth once more.

"If someone falls on me one more time they will not be able to feel their knees for two weeks!" Sam growled menacingly.

The two teens managed to get off their friend with little effort.

"Where are we?" Danny asked helping Sam get to her feet.

"Lovebirds." Danny heard Tucker mutter. Danny decided to ignore that comment.

"I think we're in a hallway of some sort." Jazz said intelligently looking at the stone walls in the corridor.

"No shit Sherlock." Danny groaned. He started walking away from the group.

"Danny where are you going?" Sam asked.

"To figure out where we are." Danny called back.

"Wait for us!" Tucker said typing into his PDA. "Darn. Carrie's broken."

Danny waited as his friends caught up. The four walked in silence each lost in their thoughts.

Danny stopped suddenly causing the group to crash into him.

"Danny why did you stop?" Jazz asked her brother curious.

"Yeah dude we're suppose to find the journal. Wait did you find the journal?" Tucker asked.

"No I- " Danny started.

"You what, you-" Jazz asked.

"Jazz let him speak." Sam sighed

"I saw this sign." Danny said motioning to an old wooden sign. The sign read;

Which path shall you choose?
Right of left, left or right?
East or West, West or East?
Either way you could lose.

The left way is fast.
You won't have to look far.
But you may end up wishing,
That you change the past.

The right path is very hard.
As all heroes paths truly are.
This path has it toils and
With its dangers it is marred.

So which path shall you choose?

"Obviously the right." Danny said. He had learned that the hard way reaps the best rewards.

"Obviously the left." Tucker smiled. "It's the fastest way."

"Gotta agree with Tucker on this one. We have to rescue more universes." Sam informed him.

"But the sign said that we might regret going down that path!" Jazz exclaimed.

"Guys how about we split up? Tucker and Sam go left and Jazz and I'll go right."

Tucker and Jazz nodded while Sam conflicted. Finally Sam nodded in agreement as well.

"We'll meet back here after two hours." Sam told her friends.

"Agreed." her friends replied.

Danny watched as Sam and Tucker went down the left path.

"C'mon Danny lets go." his sister called.

The two walked down the path in silence. After fifteen minutes his sister broke the silence.

"Why didn't you go to the left with your friends?" she asked.

Danny thought for a minute then replied. "As Phantom I have learned that things are NEVER easy. The path said it was fast but not easy. It may take us right to the unisave but it could make it impossible to get the unisave. Besides the path warned that we may regret ever going on it."

"Sure that it isn't just you wanting to be a hero?" Jazz smiled. "That hero complex might attract you with anything hero like."

"I could just be an adrenaline junkie." Danny smirked

"Yeah that's probably it." Jazz agreed.

The two continued in content silence for another twenty minutes until they reached a door.

The door was golden. On it was a ring surrounded by seven diamonds. Beside it was a plaque in gold it read:

Brave hearted soul continue on.
May you accomplish your goal.
You shall not be a pawn,
But shall help another common soul.

"Should we open the door?" Jazz asked.

"I don't see why not..." Danny said uncertain. "Besides we'll only be gone for a moment."

"I hope you're right." Jazz sighed.

Danny opened the door. A bright light shone and Danny felt his body being sucked into it.

That only meant one thing... This was a portal.

Danny heard his sister scream. He thought he might have screamed as well.

Bright lights nearly blinded him. He saw flashing images... Was that cat Sam? Why was she talking to that weird old man?

The world started to slow down. Once again he felt himself falling. But this time there was no Sam to break his fall. Danny landed on the grassy hard ground with a bang. He felt someone else land on top of him. At least Jazz had a soft landing.

Something removed Jazz off his back. He couldn't tell what it was because his face was still buried in the ground.

"Hey buddy! Are you okay? Hey wake up stand up!." Danny felt a gloved hand shaking his shoulder.

"Who are you?" He heard his sister ask.

"I am-"

Danny never got to hear who he was. Darkness claimed the tired and injured boy.

A/N I wasn't clear last chapter. I am at chapter 10 right now. I can't keep adding to the story until I know do you folks want Sally Acorn (the princess squirrel)

I wasn't sure how to split the group… Sam might be a little OOC

Reviews

GhostAnn: The unisave hmmm… Both you and Jazz have a guess as to who/what the unisave is. Thanks for that compliment! Thanks for following! I hoped you like this chapter!

Emberlynne: Discord is from MLP. Yikes it might be a tad bit hard to follow some of the later stories… (especially when things become chaotic) I had an awesome day! Hope you have a great day as well!
