One of the ghouls.
beccalovesbumblebee- Okay I am sorry my updates have been a little slow, but I am on vacation and things are a little hectic SO please don't be mad. This chapter will probably be fairly long and have a few switches in P.O.V. just to help with the effect of the story. I do not own Danny Phantom or Scooby-doo.
Chapter seven
(Dani's P.O.V.)
The last thing I remembered was flashes of an old castle passing me by before it got dark. It was all a fog, and I really wasn't sure if I was caught in that place between reality and a dream.
I must have passed out at some point because I began to come to in a dimly lit room. As my eyes opened slowly the four armed ghost was no where to be seen until I opened my eyes all the way. I tried to move, but I was held back.
"Don't struggle," The ghost said appearing in a doorway. "Those restraints are part of you right now. My Grim Creeper hooked them into your nervous system my Dear, when you go intangible they will to. Just realize there is no escape from me."
The ghost smirked as I tried to break free. Even though she said nothing would work I tried everything. The restraints became hot from all the energy I was letting off. She laughed at me as I wouldn't give up. I wanted out, and she knew that.
"I wouldn't put your energy into the restraints, they are alive you know and the more you use your powers the more the more you charge your restraints," the ghost said.
I could make out the slight glow of the restraints before they used my energy to shock me. A scream of pain escaped from my lips, and the ghost had to bite back her chuckle. I felt myself grow weak and I felt my ghost half slip away as I became human again.
The ghost was laughing she apparently found this all very comical. She came over and held my chin making my look into her glowing red eyes.
"What do you want with me?" I asked.
She merely laughed at my question. "Nothing my Danielle. I just want to take something from the Grimwood girls like they took something from me." My whole body shuddered, when she called me "my Danielle".
"What did they take from you?" I couldn't help, but to ask.
"My life," the ghost answered. I could see the anger in her eyes.
I knew there had to be more to the story after all she did threaten the girls, and probably tried to weave them into her web like she had done to Danny. I decided not to argue with her. If I got onto her good side maybe she will let me go.
"You know my name the least you can do is tell me yours," I said slowly. I wanted a name to know this ghost by. Everyone had a name, and no matter how bad they were they deserved one.
"Revolta," The ghost answered with an evil laugh.
A light was turned on by a thing that looked like a huge green meat ball with tentacles coming out of it, and it only had one eye.
"Oh Revolta," the thing said. "I see my restraints did their job."
Revolta laughed. "Yes, Grim Creeper they got our little halfling out of her ghost form and absorbed most of her energy making her nearly powerless."
The Grim Creeper laughed with Revolta. "I am glad you are pleased Revolta."
"Spider bats come and watch over our prisoner," Revolta said.
My ghost sense went off as two black bat like creatures came through the wall. They opened their wings to reveal their spider like bodies.
"You are all ghosts?" I asked somewhat stating the obvious.
"Yes because of the Grimwood girls and their meddling Coach," Revolta said not bothering to mask her distaste for the girls and Coach Rogers.
"Don't forget those stupid mutts," The Grim creeper said.
"I haven't," Revolta said with a grin before she left the room followed by her Grim Creeper.
"What am I going to do?" I asked myself.
I looked up at the sky light the sun was beginning to rise.
Revolta was right I did feel pretty powerless, and drained. I tried to go ghost, but I couldn't even manage that.
Back at Grimwood's(Sibella's P.O.V.)
When I opened my door I could hear Phantasma playing the organ. "She really has gotten batter at that," I muttered to myself as I walked down the steps. I remembered when she would just randomly press down keys making very foul noises.
"Sounding positively rotten Phanty," I said as I reached the bottom of the stairs.
"Thanks," Phanty said before floating off of the bench and taking a bow. She laughed, just like she normally did.
Tanis came over to us with a yawn. "Today is our trip to the bog right?"
Phanty laughed. "It sure is. I am going to wake up Winnie! I'm sure she'll howl!" Phanty floated up through the floor.
"I will go find Elsa," Tanis said before she bounced away.
"I guess I will go get Dani then," I muttered to myself before I walked slowly back up the steps.
I made it to her door. I knocked softly a few times. When Dani never answered. I banged louder.
"Come on Dani, answer me," I yelled. I banged on her door a few more times. "I am coming in Dani!"
When I opened the door the room was empty. "Dani?" I asked. Her window was wide open and the tattered curtains were blowing in the wind. "This isn't the time to be playing hide and shriek." I was really starting to get worried. I turned into a bat and flew out the window. I made loud noises that Dani would hear if she was in the area. I flew around the school for a few minutes before Elsa was out on the porch yelling.
"Sibella what's got you acting batty this morning?" Elsa yelled.
I flew down to the porch and changed back. I landed lightly on my feet. "I went to go get Dani, but I can't find her anywhere."
"Did you check her-"
I didn't even let Elsa finish her question. "Yes, I checked her room. She isn't there. I banged and banged on her door. There was no answer, so I thought that she was just sleeping, but when I opened the door she wasn't there. Her window was wide open, so I thought that she was out stretching her legs or whatever ghosts do that is why I was out shrieking for her. I hoped that if she heard me she would come back," I explained to Elsa.
"Calm down," Elsa said putting her hands on my shoulders. "You are killing my electricity."
I nodded. "Alright."
Elsa pulled me into the school as Winnie's morning howls could be heard. "Winnie is up," Elsa said looking at me. I think we both realized something at the same time.
"How are we going to tell Phanty?" Me and Elsa asked each other at the same time.
We both jumped when we heard Phanty's laugh behind us. "Tell me what?"
"Ummm Phanty," Elsa started to say.
"Where's Dani?" Phanty asked looking at me and then at Elsa. "You didn't send her a wake up call yet? I will get her."
Before I could stop her Phanty was gone. "Phant-" I began to call out to Phanty when Elsa cut me off by shaking her head.
"Just let her go Sibella she will understand soon enough," Elsa muttered sadly.
"What's going on ghouls?" Tanis asked.
"Just wait Tanis," Me and Elsa said quietly.
A minute later we heard a pained howl from Winnie, and Phanty laughly nervously. It sounded more like sobbing, but she wasn't crying.
"Dani isn't in her room. Have you seen her?" Phanty asked inbetween her laughs.
Me and Elsa looked at each other before we shook our heads. "Phanty we were going to tell you, but I didn't know how to say it. We just figured to let you find out on your own." I couldn't look into Phanty's hurt eyes.
"Where is Dani?" Winnie asked before letting out a howl.
"She is missing," I answered cooly.
"You don't think she ran away do you?" Elsa asked.
I shook my head.
"She wouldn't just leave! Not without telling me! She would say goodbye," Phanty pleaded. "She would have told me..."
"The window was wide open Phanty," Elsa said.
"Yes, but she wouldn't just leave!" Phanty yelled we all know she was upset, and us doubting Dani wasn't helping her.
"Okay we don't know what happened there is no need to argue," I said calmly. I put up a hand to silence both Elsa and Phanty who were about to speak. "All we know is that Dani isn't here. Maybe she left, or maybe she is in danger. Whichever it is doesn't matter we just need to find our ghoul."
Both Elsa and Phanty nodded along with Tanis and Winnie.
"So what are we going to do?" Phanty asked. "I mean how are we planning to find her?"
"The person who will know where to start looking would be Danny Phantom. Phanty, Dani showed you how to go into the ghost zone right?" I asked her.
Phanty nodded. "So you want me to track down Danny Phantom?"
"Yes, you will be the best choice to catch him," I said. Everyone else agreed.
"Okay here goes nothing," Phanty said before she was able to open a small portal to the ghost zone. "I will be back as soon as I can." She disappeared with a laugh.
"So what are we going to-" Elsa started to asked when the sound of a car horn interrupted her.
"Who is that?" Winnie asked letting out a howl before we all ran out onto the porch.
We saw our former Coach's red van parked on the other side of the draw bridge. "Girls! Lower the draw bridge!" Shaggy yelled at us, his former students.
They lowered the bridge and Shaggy came over with Scooby, and Scrappy.
"What are you guys doing here?" I asked before I even said hello to our former Coach.
"What no hello?" Shaggy asked as he hugged Tanis, and Winnie. "What's got your cape out of shape Sibella or are you still not a morning person?" Shaggy teased Sibella as he hugged her and Elsa.
"I am sorry Coach it's just that-"
"Rhere's Rhanty?" Scooby-doo asked noticing Phantasma's absence, before I could tell them what was wrong.
"She went to go find Danny Phantom," I answered.
"Ranny Rhantom?" Scooby asked.
"Why is she looking for Danny Phantom?" Scrappy asked, trying to get into this conversation.
"I have met him... Well seen him in action he isn't exactly the ghost friendly type," Shaggy said.
I swear every time I tried to speak they interrupted me. "Can I please explain? I just need to talk for a few minutes to get you guys all caught up," I pleaded with the former coaches.
They all nodded.
"Alright," I paused. "This year we have a new student Dani Phantom. Not Danny Phantom. Dani is D-A-N-I. She is Danny's daughter. We were getting ready to go to the Barren bog so, I went to wake up Dani and tell her to get ready to go, but when I checked her room she was gone. We don't know where she is. That is why we sent Phanty after Danny Phantom, because if anyone can find Dani it would be her father."
"That was a mouthful good thing you don't need to breathe," Winnie said sarcastically.
Shaggy looked confused.
"Raggy the Rhost!" Scoobt exclaimed.
"What is it Scoob?" Shaggy asked.
"The ghosts we saw on the way here Shag," Scrappy said.
"Their were two ghosts, but one was fighting with the other," Shaggy said slowly.
"What did the ghost look like?" I asked.
"It was hard to see," Shaggy said.
Me and Elsa shared a look before we gave Shaggy the "that answer doesn't cut it" look.
"Come on Coach just tell us what you saw," Elsa said. "It may help us find Dani."
Shaggy shut his eyes and tried to concentrate. "The one ghost was smaller than the other from what I could tell it was a girl, she had snow white hair, and she was wearing black," Shaggy said. "I am sorry that is all I got."
"Dani," I said as Elsa nodded in agreement.
That settled it.
Elsa shook her head. "Phanty was right."
"About what?" Tanis asked.
"That Dani was ghostnapped," Me and Elsa said together.
"Well if your friend needs help count us in," Shaggy said. "We will help in anyway we can."
"Rhat's right," Scooby-doo chimed in.
"Coach why are you here anyways? Not to be rude, but this is odd for you to just drop in," I said.
"Miss Grimwood wanted me to surprise you today by coming with you to Barren bog, but there has been a slight change of plans." Shaggy laughed lightly as he ran a hand through his sandy brown hair.
I laughed. "Slight isn't the right word Coach."
"Now we are going on a rescue mission," Tanis said.
"I will go to Calloway's and see if the Cadets want to help," Winnie said before she ran out of the front door howling the whole way.
"I will tell Miss Grimwood the situation," I said slowly as I turned into a bat and flew up to Miss Grimwood's room. I hated to wake her the day after Halloween, but this was an emergency.
