Chapter 8: part 4:
~~~SARALYN'S POV~~~
"Okay, Danny, go." I said through a walkie-talkie. Danny began walking to the middle of the street.
"Ugh... do I really have to do this?" Danny said.
"YES!" Sam and I cried. Danny took a deep breath and cupped his hands around his mouth.
"Look at me! I'm the Fright Knight Ghost!" Danny cried out.
From a ways down the street, the Fright Knight Ghost turned around and saw Danny. He growled and charged at him.
"Guys, he's coming!" Danny called.
"Okay, Danny." Sam said, "Just hold on!" The Fright Knight Ghost came closer.
"Guys!" Danny whimpered.
"Just a little more..." I said. Danny whimpered.
"NOW!" Sam cried.
I reached out my hand and shot ghost ray at the Fright Knight. He toppled off of his Pegasus, which became frightened and flew away.
"Yes!" Danny said.
"You hooligans!" the Fright Knight screeched. "You think that just because you scared my horse away, you won?! HA! FOOLS!"
The Fright Knight Ghost pointed his sword towards Danny and shot a ray at him. Danny jumped out of the way in a back handspring. His rainbow wig flew off and tumbled away. He skidded back a few feet in a crouch and tore off his fake nose as he changed into his ghost half.
"Wow. Impressive." Sam said. "Have you ever considered gymnastics?"
"Guys, I could use your help!" Danny called.
I flew beside Danny and we shot ghost rays at the Fright Knight Ghost. He deflected them with his sword.
"This is like Vortex all over again!" Danny said.
"Except there is NO way that I am planning on turning into a boy again." I said. I formed a ball of light and chucked it at Fright Knight Ghost like a bowling ball.
"Now, Danny!" I said. I flew back and covered my ears.
Danny took a deep breath and let out a ghostly wail. The Fright Knight Ghost flew back and his sword fumbled out of his hands. Tucker jumped up in the air and caught it. At that time, I caught an exhausted Danny and set him down on the ground.
"Quick, Saralyn!"
I craned my head towards the Fright Knight Ghost, who was starting to get up. He let out a roar and charged at us like a rocket. Tucker flung the sword at me and I managed to catch it by the handle. I lunged and stabbed the sword into the pumpkin. The force wave that came pushed me back into the ground.
"NOOO!" the Fright Knight Ghost cried.
He tried pulling the sword from the pumpkin, but it was sealed. A green ominous cloud swirled over the Fright Knight Ghost. As he began to float up to it, he tried grabbing the ground to no avail. He floated into the cloud and it disappeared. The pumpkin began to rumble as the sword pulled itself away. The sword vanished, and the pumpkin exploded, causing its insides to scatter everywhere. Including all over us.
"Yes! We did it!" We cheered, despite the fact that we were covered in pumpkin guts.
We started jumping up and down. Danny and I hugged each other. After a few seconds, realization hit. I pulled away, trying not to blush. Tucker and Sam stared at us and smirked. I stole a glance at Danny. He was blushing too.
