A/N: Hi everyone. Thanks for the reviews. I really do like to read them all. And I love all of you. Anyways, here is a new chapter. I hope you enjoy. Oh I wrote a little flashback/extra for you.

Dan had let the teens escape. They didn't matter for the moment; his goal stood in front of him defiantly. The shorter woman stood with shoulders square as the faint wisps of misery surrounded her. Dan smirked at the woman's futile resistance. The two fought but he was able to subdue her easily enough. She had thought that she could destroy him, but she clearly didn't understand his power. He saw the way her brown eyes looked at him; a mixture of hope and fear. That small hope irritated him for some reason. She thought he would just go back to the way things were before and that was impossible. He killed his human half and he never felt more free. He wouldn't go back to the trappings of his past.

Dan had grabbed the woman's slender throat. He could feel her pulse quicken beneath his fingers. She was staring directly in his eyes as if searching for something. He could hear the slight murmuring of 'Danny' that fell from her lips. He could feel warm tears fall onto his gloves as her hands tried to pry his away. He wasn't a ghost that fed on misery but he did feel some satisfaction at the strangled sobs. He tightened his grasp slightly and her hands slipped from his gloves as her eyes rolled back.

With a smirk, Dan broke the woman's neck with a quick twist. He dropped her unceremoniously. He turned to the direction that the teens had run to. They wouldn't get far.

Abigail understood why Thalen and her were separated or at least she told herself that. It was in the best interest of the resistance and it would help them become stronger. She tugged at her clothing although the area around her was frosty, she didn't feel the chill. "Miss Abigail, is everything okay?" the deep rumbling voice of the ghost in front of her asked. She shook her head to clear any distracting thoughts.

Abigail looked up at the large abominable snowman ghost. The giant ghost was really friendly so Abigail didn't want to trouble him. "Everything is fine. Thanks for asking, Frostbite," Abigail answered with a smile.

"You are thinking about the other halfa? Thalen, correct?" Frostbite asked.

Abigail could feel her face turn red. "Well, I little bit. We are like family that's all," Abigail said. She tightened her ponytail.

"Of course. You should get some rest. We can visit him tomorrow," Frostbite said kindly.

"Are you sure? I thought we were supposed to continue training and we didn't have time for pleasantries?" Abigail asked.

" We have been training for the past month; one day wouldn't end the world. Besides, It is good to relax every now and again," Frostbite said, "We'll leave early tomorrow."

Abigail smiled before asking, "Is there a way for us to get a message to the human world? I'll like to tell my parents that I'm okay."

Frostbite became serious, "I can have Pandora hunt down Wulf again, but I can't make any promises." Abigail told herself that she understood, but there were days when she just wanted to get away from all the fighting; there were days when she just wanted to be with her family.

Sylvia walked out of her house going to the corner of the backyard where no one would see her. Looking around quickly for anybody and not seeing any, she changed into her ghost half. The young artist pushed off the ground and into the sky.

There was always something relaxing about flying especially at night. She looked up to the dark expanse above her; the moon was nowhere in sight, only the stars gave off light.

She thought back to the past month. It was surely taxing on all the halfas. Even Vlad seemed drained, but everyone was so determined. Maybe it was a need for revenge or the need to protect people that drove the others. Sylvia wondered why she still train and prepared with them. She didn't think she would be good in a fight and after they disappeared, she would be lying if she said that she wasn't afraid.

A bright light drew Sylvia's attention. She stop to hover as she zeroed in on the warm yellow light. Her core seemed to freeze as she realized what she was seeing. The warm haze of fire burned in the horizon. "Jasper," she whispered to herself remembering that her brother was supposed to be playing a game at the local stadium.

Sylvia debated with herself with only for a moment before she flew toward the city determine to be there for her brother. The ghost girl flew closer and closer when her ghost sense went off. The blue stream of air flew upwards and Sylvia stopped spinning looking for the source of the energy that she sensed.

A bright green ecto-blast struck her in her shoulder, the force of it knocking her to the ground. The girl got to her feet quickly barely missing another blast. "Wh-where are you?" she called out to the dark feeling nervous at the silence. Concentrating, she made a duplicate. She looked at herself which always felt strange and the two separated.

Sylvia waited for another blast as she ran to a dark alley. Gathering her energy she began to perform a trick that Vlad and her had created. Her ecto-energy leaked into her surroundings and 'painted' it to appear empty. She held her breath as she knew the ghost that attacked her was searching for her.

The artist could feel when her duplicate was destroyed and she had to calm herself to keep up her illusion. She reminded herself that Alex and Vlad assured her that she was basically invisible like this to both ghosts and humans. She was safe and the ghost wouldn't find her.

Abigail had woke up early the next day. She was excited to see Thalen. It would be nice to talk to someone who could understand her. As nice as the Far Frozen ghosts were, they were definitely not human. They couldn't talk about simple things, but they did have nice feasts. "Are you ready to go?" Frostbite's voice asked from the entrance of her temporary room.

"Yes, thank you for letting me go see him," Abigail said as she brushed through her long hair. The ghost girl floated out of the cavern that served as a bedroom. Several of the white beast-like ghost waved as the two walked past. Frostbite led the way to the 'launch pad'. The patch of ice was heavy guarded and was the only spot on the island that didn't have a wall of ice. Abigail didn't care for the long walk to leave the Far Frozen, but she understood that it was to protect the citizens of the Far Frozen and well as other ghosts that asked for asylum.

"Don't fall behind, Abigail," Frostbite said over his shoulder causing Abigail to pick up her pace. "I'll be guiding you to Thalen's location once we take off," Frostbite said looking up at the green sky of the Ghost Zone.

Abigail was grateful that Frostbite was willing to go with her. While many ghosts feared Dan, there were still some that didn't agree with the Resistance. Some would hand over the halfas to Dan as a payment for protection. "Stay close to me. Thalen is staying at Prince Aragon's castle, so the trip will take a couple of hours." Frostbite explained as he flew off of the Far Frozen. Abigail followed right after flying after the larger ghost.

They were barely out of sight of the glowing Far Frozen when Abigail's ghost sense went off. The halfa knew that this wasn't good; after spending time with the ghost of the Far Frozen, they had stopped setting off her ghost sense.

"There you are," Dan's baritone voice said pleased. "I've been waiting for you to leave that ice cube for a long time."
