Date/ Time/ Location: Friday, March 23, 2018/ 4:45 P.M./ Fenton Works
Sam, Tucker and I are at my house. Jack and Maddie are out of the country for some convention to garner support for their ghost hunting/testing. Considering it's spring break they'll mostly likely be back in June. They're so obsessed that they have built a 'ghost portal' in our basement. Jazz is out of state visiting Yale. Sam and Tucker have convinced me to show them this 'portal'.
Tucker with wide eyes, "Dude check out all the tech," he reaches into his pocket, pulls out a PDA, presses a few button and from the back of his back of his neck a yellow scarab beetle, takes to the air; it's wings unfolds and as it begins to fly another, "Alright Scar do our thing."
Tucker made this scarab inspired beetle has four cameras; including 2 HD and 2 inferred, movie studio grade microphones, is durable enough to be run over by my parents RV, can fly up to 25 mph and scan electronics. For some reason he decided to have this thing clamp down onto the base of his neck.
Sam and I look at each other and laugh however I notice some weird choker but I shrug it off.
As Tucker scans away with Scar, Sam nudges me with her shoulder and asks, "You going in or what?"
"Well if you think I should," I hum, "then I might need more convincing."
Truth be told I'm only teasing her however I also want to see what she'll say.
She gets on her toes and whispers into my ear, "I'll own you a favor."
Her voice tingles me to my very bones, 'Tempting, very tempting, I hope I don't regret this.'
I sigh, "Alright you've convinced me but I got to choose an outfit."
She smirks the type of smirk I love so much, "If you say so."
I then pick out my outfit; black combat boots with white soles and laces, white pants with black trim, a dark grey belt, a white long sleeve shirt with the logo Sam designed DP, dark fingerless leather gloves, a white lab coat and I tie my hair back to top it all off.
Tucker whistles, "You pull off the science biker pretty well."
Sam smiles, "I gotta agree."
I smirk, "Thanks guy," and begin to walk towards the portal, as I enter the hexagonal door, "Hey Sam I think you'd like all darkness in here," I lean my hand on the side of the wall and hear a 'click', I hear the portal come to life I yell to my friends as I start to run towards the entrance, "Guys I figured out why the portal didn't wor-"
~Zap~
'Shit this hurts,' all I can feel is pain and all I can see is a green tunnel energy, I look to my right to see a bunch of green swirls and to m-
"Danny!" I hear Sam yell.
'Sam! What the fuck am I doing here? Where are Sam and Tucker?,' I think before I begin to struggle to rush toward the edge of the portal.
I reach out with my glove reach out, I feel something grab it and am pulled out of the portal. The person I see upon being pulled out has beautiful violet eyes they're Sam's and she's crying.
I begin to close my eyes, 'What have I done?'
I see Sam's violet eyes above me, "Danny?"
I end up coughing in responding.
I hear Tucker's scarab flying around as I feel someone places two fingers on my neck, "Sam he doesn't have a pulse."
"No, not my Danny."
What The Fuck Did I Just Hear?!
I feel water droplets hit my face and see a white light appears through my eyelids.
I feel myself getting shaken, "Danny."
I feel myself running out of air before I take a breath. Everything goes black.
(Time Skip)
I groan myself awake only to find it's already dark out. As my vision begins to come back into focus when I see Sam laying down next to me.
She begins to help me sir up, "Danny."
"Sam, what happened?" I then notice that Tucker isn't here.
Sam begins to rub my back with her right hand, "The portal turned on while you were in it."
I groan and pop my neck, "Jack is a fucking idiot."
Sam stops rubbing my back, "What do you mean?"
I narrow my eyes and begin to stretch, "Before the portal came to life my hand pressed a button on the wall. When I took my hand away it said On, Off."
Sam then begins to rub my chest with her left hand, "How do you know it wasn't Maddie?"
I scoff but the feeling of Sam's rubbing my chest feels strange, "Maddie doesn't make mistakes like that."

Tucker got back the next day because his parents wanted him home. Sam assured him I would understand, which I did. Sam was able to stay because her parents really don't care.
Tucker insisted that we use Fenton Technology to figure out what's going on with me.
I stand on an indicated spot, an 'X' on the ground, as a robotic arm scans me in both forms.
Tucker links everything to his PDA, "Okay with the scan I've found out a number of things," Sam and I stay silent as our technology inclined friend utilizes the split screen on a monitor to show each of my 'forms', "Okay as you can see your human form is on the right and your 'ghost' form if you want call it that is on the left. From a pure appearances standpoint the only difference is a color inversion. However," Tucker's images transition to infrared, "when it comes to body temperature this is where the differences truly split. At 95F you should be experiencing hypothermia and your ghost form is at a 89.6F -a literal medical emergency-," the images then become x-ray showing my internal organs, "As you can see Danny in your human form you've gain a small trapezohedron crystal in your chest however it grows to five times when inside your ghost form. Just as well this crystal is vibrating like a phone, rotating like a top and pulsating like a star."
I nod slowly, "So we have a bases of knowledge but how could it help us control this power?"
Tucker smirks, "I believe trial by fire would be the option."
Sam speaks up, "As much as I hate to attempt it, there's merit in Tucker's plan."
I stand up with determination in my eyes, "Alright let's train."
(Time Skip)
Date/ Time/ Location: August 14, 2018/ 5:50 A.M./ Fenton Works
Sam figured out that the best way to get a handle on my powers was to meditate(having a clear mind and connecting to my 'core', which I figured is like my ghost heart) will give me a better feel of my powers and have better control. She also suggested that I train in my human body, both physically and with my powers while still in my human form to get a better understanding. The final piece of advice she gave me was to keep training my powers with any free time I have until I got a handle on them.
Sam then relieved that she was a mage, she mentioned it took her several good long months to change sand into jewel weapons.
It's been around five months since I got my powers and the advice of our now mage, Sam. Sam was a god sent, because thanks to her advice it only took about a month until I could control my powers and stop them from activating randomly. Meditation really did help me control my powers and ecto energy, fighting other ghosts and using my power helped me strengthen them and even unlock some new ones.
Not only could I fly, turn invisible, intangible, I learned some other powers during my training. One really useful power was ecto-energy manipulation, which had a lot of uses such as making shields, blasts, weapons, even enhancing punches and kicks. Overshadow was something I had to be careful with, I didn't want to take advantage of people but I didn't want to be clueless with the power, so with Tucker's and Sam's permission I got used to the ability. Spectral manipulation is another useful ability, it basically allows me to twist, pull, and change my body at will, allowing me to dodge attacks at the last minutes. Duplication was the hardest power and the most taxing, basically it allowed me to make a copy of myself by splitting my power, and when the copy disappeared my gained the copies memories. So far I could only make one other copy of myself but I know with more training I know would be able to duplicate myself even more. I also figured out that forcibly raising my energy level results in an emerald green flame around me and forces me into my ghost form however doing the exact opposites, pulling all of my energy into my core, forces me back into my human form.
That was just power training, physically I changed a lot. After looking up some training exercises to help build muscle I started an hour long workout in the morning and in the early afternoon. Thanks to my ghost powers I recovered my energy a lot easier and I didn't need as much sleep as before, only a few hours and I would be well rested and energized. I've also begun to train against ecto-weapons. How I've borrowed some of my parent's working weapons, my reasoning was that I'll eventually face my would be relatives or worst a confident hunter. Tucker was put on maintenance, he would primary be using ecto-weapons while Sam has been the true challenge due to her magic abilities.
I grunt as I finished my last pushup before standing up. As I stand I couldn't help but notice what all of my physical training got him. I wasn't overly buff like those idiot jocks at school with bulging muscles, but instead I had flexible, my more defined muscles had strength. I had a solid six-pack and muscular arms and legs to give the jocks a run for their money. But these were muscles built for fighting, not showing off. My workout consists of about 100 sit-ups, pushups, squats, a cardio run, and stretching. But it's not just me; Tucker didn't want to be left out and Sam was already the fittest one of all of us all. But right now I got to meet my friends so we can express order our school supplies.
Danny(P.O.V)
Date/ Time/ Location: August 24, 2018/ 5:50 A.M./ Fenton Works
My friends and I were dragged into the lab after I asked Uncle Jack, "If ectoplasm is easy to make and has no harmful emissions couldn't it replace fossil fuels?"
My idiot father begins, "So, Danny. You and your little friends want to hunt ghosts."
I try to crush his dream, "No, Jack I am going to be an astronaut if not that a detective," I've recently started to get into crime shows.
Dad offen answers me when I call him by his name so he either doesn't mind or is to idiotic to care. Most likely the latter.
Sam scotts, "Sorry, Mr. Fenton. I was into ghosts, but they're so mainstream now. They're like cellphones."
Tucker grimace, "Waste grimous these looks and all this charisma hunting ghosts? Criminal."
Jack completely ignore our comments, "Well, if you do want to hunt ghosts," he turns to a table behind him with laboratory equipment and beakers, "there are a few things you need to learn."
Jack begins to mess around with a few of the glasses on the table while suddenly has a blue mist escaping from his mouth.
"Oh, shit," I whispered to myself and watch as the portal door now open, "this isn't good."
Two ecto-pi escape from the green-swirling portal. The ghosts grab my friends around their mouths and body only to lift them up out of their chairs.
Jack continues without looking back, "True, I've never seen a ghost..."
I lift myself out of the chair and transform. The holding Tucker raises it's arms and fire ecto-beams out the tips. I fly through the path, focus my energy into my hand and cut through one of off its arms. It drops Tucker, I fly down, catch him and place him on the chair. Sam on the other sends a magically pulse through her body. I quickly fly over, catch her, place her on the chair and fire my own ecto-beams at them. The magic actually exploded the ghost however its regeneration ability quickly repairs the damage.
Apparently I manage to get Tucker and Sam away from the ghosts just as Jack holds up something that looks like a soup thermos. Behind him I launch an ecto-pi past him. I put my friends back into their chairs as Jack goes over to them.
I hear Jack and out of the corner of my eye see him hand my friends a thermos, "Sam, Tucker, this is the Fenton Thermos."
I focused and hit the ecto-pi back, with an middle sized ecto-beam, into the Ghost Zone while my idiot father doesn't notice, I land in my chair and transform.
I've finally cared to listen to Jack's rambling, "--but since it doesn't work yet it's just a thermos," he continues almost too proudly, "a thermos with the word "Fenton" in front of it," he points to the portal, "And that? That is the Fenton Portal. It will release ghosts into our world whether I want it to or not." he walks up to said portal, "And someday, I'll figure out how that," he taps the door, "works too."
My friends have since stopped trembling.
Jack asks, "Now, who wants to hunt some ghosts?" he continues to ignore our uninterest, "You're too excited to speak!" he turns around, "So I'll just go on speaking..."
We tone him out, and I honestly couldn't care less.
Date/ Time/ Location: Monday August 20, 2018/ 6:25 A.M./ Fenton Works
I sit at the dining room table eating some homemade eggs, spam, cinnamon toast with a glass of orange juice- why because I cooked Jazz and I breakfast, why, Jack always dips food in fudge, Maddie uses ecto-plasm to cook and clean plates and Jazz is somehow able to burn water-, Maddie puts on the hood of her blue jumpsuit and begins putting some final touches some new invention. Jazz sits on the seat next to me glances up from the book she's reading to look at her mom with annoyance before sticking her nose back in her book again. But not before using her fork into some of the eggs I made.
Maddie continues to work on the invention she says, "Okay, two more days, and it's done!"
She turns off the torch then Jack appears behind her.
Jack excitedly says, "What did you say?" he grabs the invention, "It's done? The Fenton Finder is done! This baby uses satellites to lead you-" the invention begins to come alive, "- right to the ghost."
Upon hearing those words I pull my ecto-plasm into my core turning me completely human.
The Fenton Finder in a woman's voice, "Welcome to the Fenton Finder. There are no ghosts in the area."
I smirk to myself as I finish breakfast, I stand, throw my backpack over my shoulder, "Well guys," this gets their attention, "I gotta get to school."
Jazz stands quickly, "Hey Danny I'll drive you to school as a thanks for breakfast."
I smile, "Epic thanks sis."
As we exit the kitchen I hear Maddie wonder, "Huh. That's weird. Jasmine never offers to drive Danny to school and since when does Daniel make breakfast?"
As I open the open door for Jazz I hear Jack says, "That can only mean one thing. Those aren't our kids, those are ghosts," as I close the door, "Don't worry kids we'll save you!"
During our car ride Jazz ask, "So Danny you remember that book report I was doing for college?"
I continue to look out the window, "Yeah vaguely."
I can hear her smile, "Well one of my tech savvy friends ran the book through a scanner and guess what he found."
'Truth be told it could be any number of hidden messages but let's play along for now.'
"And what would that be?"
She continues, "He said the first letter in every chapter title formed a message."
'So it's that one.'
"Really what's the message?"
"A book finished, a family failed, treated like a cretin. The life of a Fenton a tragic tale is still a family failed." She pauses before continuing, "Very interesting don't you think." I can then feel her eyes narrow on me, "Why didn't you tell?"
I sigh, "Because I'm always being compared to you, that if I told you about my insurances then I was afraid your studies would falter."
She sighs as well, "Well this weekend I think we should schedule some family counseling."
"I don't mind if it's just you but not Maddie and especially not Jack."
She drives into the parking lot, "Then maybe you and I should sit down and talk. Just the two of us."
As she parks I nod, "I think that would work perfectly."
(Time Skip)
Sam, Tucker and I walk through the hallway before going up the stairs.
I groan, "They just infuriate me."
Sam nods, "You got that right. What's even worse, they don't understand!" she throws her head back and yells, "WHY CAN'T THEY ACCEPT ME FOR WHO I AM!?"
I raise an eyebrow, "Uh, Sam, I-I'm talking about my powers, my problems?"
Sam blushes, "Oh, right. Me too."
"It's been a few months since the accident and I've barely gotten control over my powers!" I start to get somewhat upset more, "If somebody catches me, I go from geek to freak around here!"
I then walk through a vending machine while becoming intangible and end up taking several of the snacks inside my backpack.
As I return my body back to normal, Sam grabs me and forces me to look into those amnesty eyes I love so much, "Danny, your powers make you unique. Unique is good!" she lets go of me and proudly continues, "That's why I'm an Ultra Recyclo- Vegetarian."
Tucker raises an eyebrow, "Which means, what?"
I decide to inform him, "She doesn't eat anything with a face on it."
Tucker scoffs, "Ah, who cares about that stuff. Danny," he holds two fingers up to emphasize, "two words: meat connoisseur," he sniffs the air around me, "this morning you had Spam and last night Sloppy Joes."
I smile in amusement, "Impressive."
Tucker smiles proudly, "Meat heightens the senses, and my all-meat streak is fourteen years strong."
Sam smiles proudly, "...And it could come to an end today. The school board finally agreed to try some new additions to the cafeteria menu. I wore them down."
Tucker in a very alarmed voice, "Wait. What did you do?"
Time: 11:35 a.m.
(Lunchtime)
In the lunchroom there's a brand new Veggie Bar with several healthy foods such as; loaded bell pepper(fried rice and veggies), Red Lentil-Rice Cakes(I don't know what it is but it looked good enough to eat) and Summer Squash Pizza. There are many more but these were the best that saw.
I whisper into Sam's ear, "Great job."
Sam seems happy as I get a rice cake, Tucker however...
Tucker yells, "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!?"
Sam with a pleased look as she holds up a slice of veggie pizza, "Tucker, it's time for a change."
3rd(POV)
Meanwhile at Fenton Works
The portal door opens. An entity walks out of the portal.
She calmly says, "Ooo, somebody changed the menu!"
She flies up and phases out through the roof while residents seem to be working on another invention, causing them to not notice the ghost at all.
Maddie in her hoodie and goggles, "Maybe this is a bad idea."
Jack without his hoodie and goggles, "No, it's perfect. When the kids get home we suck the ghost out of them," he strikes a pose with the new invention that looks like a vacuum cleaner, "with the Fenton Xtractor."
Maddie with concern in her voice, "But what if they aren't a ghost? What if we accidentally hurt them?"
Jack with complete disregard in his voice, "Maddie, the Fenton Extractor doesn't hurt humans...unless it gets in your hair-" it turns on and the suction rips most of his hair out, he yells in pain, then quickly calm, "-see?"
Location: Casper High Cafeteria
Sam(POV)
Danny cuts a piece of rice cake and starts to chew it. Before gently dabbing a bit of hot sauce onto one of the corners.
I watch as Danny smiles and his sapphire blue eyes light up at me before swallowing it, "Surprisingly good."
That damn smile is going to make me want him more.
I smile back and say, "Thanks Danny, I was actually going to make the entire menu full on ultra vegetarian foods but I remembered how much you hated it."
I feel an adult hand on my shoulder. I turn to see that douchebag teacher, Mr. Lancer.
With a smug smile he says, "Ah, Miss Manson," he proudly wears his staff member name tag, is a little out of shape and smiles like a butcher shop, "The school board wanted me to personally thank you for ushering in these welcome new additions to our cafeteria."
Tucker seems widened eyes and on alert like a dog, he begins to sniff the air and very frantically says, "Meat. Near."
Tucker looks up at the Lancer and sniffs the air around him. He glares at him causing Lancer back away.
Lancer puts his hands up, "No, no. The rumors about the new all-steak buffet in the teacher's lounge," he pulls out a toothpick, he then begins to use it, "are completely untrue," he puts his hand on my shoulder again, "Thanks again."
Lancer begins to leave.
Tucker glares at me, "Yeah, thanks again for making us eat garbage, Sam."
"It's not garbage," I point to Danny's plate, "It's a healthy alternative that doesn't promote heart disease."
Tucker glares back, "It's also been proven that non-meat eaters are more at risk of physical and mental illness."
I glare back, "And it's been proven that carnivores are more susceptible to heart disease."
Danny pushes us away, "Okay, how about we stop arguing and enjoy what little we do have?"
Tucker and I looked at each other before we look away from each other, 'I can't argue with Danny, no matter how angry I am with Tucker.'
Several minutes later I hear Danny gasp and I turn to see a blue mist suddenly escapes his mouth.
Danny becomes alarmed, "Guys? I've got a problem."
"FEN-TON!!!"
Tucker and I glance at each other and think at the same time, 'Oh fuck not Dash.'
Danny turns around with a grimace, "Make that two problems."
A jock known as Dash storms over to Danny, and places of vegetables in front of him.
Dash angrily exclaims, "I ordered three mud-pies. Do you know what they gave me? This vegan crap! All because of your girlfriend!"
Neither Danny nor I deny it, I notice the shocked look on Tucker's face. Then hits me, Danny didn't deny it does this mean he wants something more.
Danny scoffs, "Dash it's a healthy addition to lunch, if you replace your sugar filled dessert it keeps up the muscles you're so proud of, you should gain some much needed nutrients for your brain."
Dash is then pulled away by his 'friends', while we walk away towards the kitchen.
While walking, I see Danny turn and looks behind him. Dash still seems to be angry.
Dash mutters under breath something like, "You're gonna pay for this, Fenton!"
Danny scoffs, "Oh, great. I'm still his favorite."
The trio manages to crawl out of the cafeteria door, and Danny, Tucker and I peek our heads around and see this Lunch Lady Ghost.
Tucker speaks up quickly, "Shouldn't be so bad. She looks a little like my grandmother."
Danny quitely speaks, "Maybe we should talk to her?"
I in a whispered yell, "You can't be serious, those ecto-pi are unreasonable-"
"And this," Danny cuts me off, "is a humanoid and there's no reason to suspect she can't be reasoned with."
'He's right we shouldn't assume,' I nod.
Danny walks towards only for the ghost to turn around to him.
I can hear Danny's smile, "Excuse me ma, is there something I could help you with?"
The Lunchlady turns to us with a smile, "Such a polite young man," she floats over to us and pulls out a cookie, "have a cookie." Danny takes the cookie and takes a bite out of it, "Can you help me? Today's lunch is meatloaf," this shocks us, "but I don't see the meatloaf. Did someone change the menu?"
Tucker is about something but Danny says, "Ma'am meatloaf hasn't been on Monday for three years now."
She's stun but then becomes EXTREMELY angry and green flames surround her, "WHO CHANGED THE MENU!?" we gasps, "THE MENU HAS BEEN THE SAME FOR FIFTY YEARS!"
Green flames surround her and appear circling above on the ceiling.
Danny yells, "Get behind me!"
Tucker and I promptly jump behind Danny. I also take notice of his muscular back.
I try to hide my blush, "Wow. I feel safe."
A ring of light surrounds his waist. The ring split and travels vertically across his body. Changing him into his ghost form.
Danny floats up to engage the Lunch Lady.
I hear Danny say, "Look you both don't want to do this."
The Lunch Lady Ghost's hand begins to glow and many piles of dishes surrounding a sink begin to get an eerie glow. The dishes suddenly float around and start flying towards him.
Danny with an unflinching gaze makes his body intangible. Causing the dishes to pass right through him before hitting the wall behind him. Danny reverts back to normal and smirks.
A bunch of dishes head right towards me. Danny sees this and immediately flies to help me, and begins catching the dishes with his arms, the dishes neatly stacking up.
Before I could thank him, the Lunch Lady uses her ghost powers on even more dishes. She then sends them towards Tucker.
Danny flies over to help him and catches the dishes neatly again, as well as catching a few in his mouth.
I then begin to run to Tucker's side.
I see Tucker stops wincing after realizing Danny stopped the dishes and smiles. Danny flies off to put the dishes back on the counter, leaving a few dishes still in his mouth.
Danny(POV)
I remove the remaining plates from my mouth and stare at my own reflection in the plates.
"Well, if this superhero thing doesn't work out I could have an exciting career as a busboy."
While looking at my reflection in the plates, I noticed the stoves behind me begin to move around.
My eyes narrow.
I look towards the Lunch Lady, "I control lunch! Lunch is sacred! Lunch has rules!" she suddenly turns calm and politely asks, "Anybody want cake?"
I'm initially confused until she suddenly becomes enraged, "Too bad! Children who change 'my' menu do not get dessert!"
She suddenly phases up through the ceiling while the three stoves begin to have green flames coming out of them. Those green flames fire out of the ovens towards Sam and Tucker who jump out of the way just in time. I also have to dodge a blast of green flames as well. The three flaming stoves fly towards Tucker and Sam.
I fly up behind them and grab their shoulders. I turn our bodies intangible and quickly fly us through the wall, out of the kitchen and into the school hallway.
I can only assume the stoves hit the wall.
We return to normal again; Sam rolls and stands, Tucker rolls and jumps up onto his feet and I slide my feet and pivot completely around. They look behind them in shock.
I excitedly look down at my hands in amazement, "So I can spread that power to others."
Sam seems to be a little peeved, "This is the thanks I get for thinking like an individual?"
We hear a loud crash, Tucker and I turn to look for the cause. The hallway begins shaking violently and the lights go out. Electricity sparks over the lockers before finally dissipating.
The supplies fly towards the Lunch Lady, swirling through her. She still looks peeved.
I hear Tucker sniff the air, he then starts to name the various meat that fly past us, "Steak...! Ribeye...! Porthouse...! Medium-rare...!" as the meat products suddenly begin attaching themselves to her body until she is completely covered and only her mean green eyes are showing, Tucker is still in shock, "But where did it come from?" the realization hits him, "Lancer!"
Lancer(POV)
I speak to several of my fellow teachers and staff members, "Esteemed Casper High faculty, I present your all-steak buffet."
I pull off the tablecloth covering the buffet.
However I hear several gasps.
I look down at the table only to see a bone rattling around on the plate.
I slam my hands onto the table, "PARADISE LOST!"
Danny(POV)
Lunch Lady in her meat golem form, "Prepare to learn why meat is the most powerful," she points at Sam, "of the five food groups!" she goes from rage and back to innocent, holds up a cookie and politely ask, "Cookie?"
Sam worrily shakes her head, she seems a little surprised before getting angry again, "Then perish!"
I slide backwards towards Sam to protect her. Sam looks surprised.
'Maybe some intimation.'
I angrily, "Forget it! The only thing that has an expiration date here is," I point at the Lunch Lady Ghost, "you!"
The Lunch Lady sends me flying back into Tucker. We both get sent into the lockers behind us and a pile of papers covers us.
3rd(POV)
Tucker and Danny are still kneeling on the ground.
Tucker seems to notice what's happening, "Come on! Change back!," he looks down at Danny, "We gotta go!"
Out of nowhere two hands suddenly grab both boys by their collars.
Lancer both irritated and angry, "You two aren't going," he pulls us up off the ground, "anywhere."
Dash walks up equally angry and covered in mud.
Dash yells with a vain showing, "Told ya you'd pay Fenton!"
3rd(POV)
Lancer sorts through files in his file cabinet while Danny and Tucker sit in chairs in front of his desk. Dash is on the back wall looking pleased with the way things are turning out.
Mr. Lancer pulls out a file and reads it, "Tucker Foley. Chronic tardiness, talking in class, repeated loitering by the girl's locker room," gives a sly smile at this comment but Lancer continues by reading my file, "Danny Fenton no severe mischief before today," he places the files on the table and calmly, "So...gentlemen, tell me," his face quickly turns an apple red, "WHY DID THE TWO OF YOU, CONSPIRE TO DESTROY THE SCHOOL CAFETERIA!?"
Lancer(POV)
Mr. Fenton begins to get defensive, "Hold on."
I smile, "Because Dash threw four touchdown passes in the last game is thereby exempt from scorn."
Dash smiles proudly at his achievement.
I glare down at the two boys, "You on the other ha-"
"I SAID HOLD ON!" Mr. Fenton looks up from his chair and a sudden calmness comes over him, "Mr. Lancer is it or is it not true that you prefer to use the U.S. judicial system to deal with your own brand on 'justice'?"
'Where is he going with this?'
I nod, "Yes it is."
Mr. Fenton stands, this seems to provoke Mr. Baxter to try to speak however he gets cuts him off, "NO, DASH I SAT HERE SILENTLY WHILE YOU LIED," he turns to me, "Mr. Lancer if this were on an actually court case the prosecution wouldn't have much of a leg to stand on."
I raise an eyebrow, "And how so."
Mr. Fenton smirks, "Dash has calmed that Tucker and I beat him up, lifted him over our heads and throw him into mud. Is this correct?"
Mr. Baxter and I nod before I speak up again, "This is correct."
Mr. Fenton smirks, "Then tell me, would a jury or a court of law believe that two teenagers that are both failing gym not only beat the star quarterback without his team trying to help him but also lifted him over their heads and throw into mud when it hasn't rained in over 3 weeks."
'Oh, shit, when did Mr. Fenton get so well versed in law.'
I stand, "Mr. Fenton this is about your punishment."
He places both hands on my desk, smiles-it's that type of smile that a villain uses against the hero- and says, "If you haven't known the Google Cloud automatically saves files that are interpreted. Yes," Mr. Baxter and I nod, Daniel raises his right arm showing us his watch, "Then let me ask you this, would Principle Ishiyama convict or acquit if she had a single file of our conversation?"
I glance over to Mr. Baxter, to see his face is drained of color.
He walks over to his sit, grabs his bag, "Let's go Tuck."
I stand, "Mr. Fenton," he turns to me, "the file."
Daniel then glares at me, "This watch is my property, if you want the file you'll need a court order which would require court order within reason, the principal and an officer."
Danny(POV)
I drag Tucker out of the room only for him to say, "Danny are you sure you want to be their main target?"
I smirk, "This so they wouldn't be focused on you two," I return to the situation and guide him to the bathroom, "Now then I remember from those monitors that there's a meat trail in the basement."
I grab Tucker's shoulder and phase us through the ground.
Tucker looks elated at the sight and happily, "Sweet mother of mutton!" he quickly latches himself onto the wall of the boxes of meat, "I'd dreamed of it but I never thought I'd live to see it!"
Tucker continues to hold the wall with tears in his eyes.
"Okay how is it that I have the ghost powers," I point to Tucker, "and you're still the weird kid?"
We peer around the corner to see the Lunch Lady standing over Sam in a pile of meat.
She politely asks, "My dear child, meat is good for kids!" Sam looks irritated, and struggling to get free of the pile of meat, "It helps them grow and makes them smile! Why won't you eat it?"
The Lunch Lady Ghost offers Sam a chicken leg.
Sam glares at the chicken and then at Lunch Lady, "We don't need meat. That's fact!"
I walk out of our hiding place, "Actually Sam," both entities turn to me; the Lunch Lady narrows her eyes and a frown envelopes her face and Sam eyes lighten up and a smile on her face, "it's an excellent source of iron, which if I recall you absolutely hate iron supplements," her smile turns to a furrowed brow, "Not to mention archaeologist have proven that historical humans need meat to develop your brain power."
She yells, "Aren't you going to help me?!"
I give her a sly smile, "I honestly would, but this is a rare opportunity for you to listen." I turn to the Lunchlady, "I'm sorry you got upset because of my friend but she just wanted healthier food options."
The Lunch Lady still calm says, "Actually I should be the one to apologize, my husband says I have a problem shifting from calm to very angry."
Tucker steps forward, "Ma'am, I believe that's known as a bipolar disorder."
I hit Tucker with my elbow and hiss, "Tucker."
"No," the Lunch Lady begins to say, "No my husband says it's beginning to become a problem."
We then begin to talk, just talk. She even frees Sam from the pile of meat. She finally begins to accept that the menu had to have been altered due to health concerns. Eventually she agrees to not cause trouble, in exchange she could cook in the cafeteria all she wants.
After classes we find and talk more about being a ghost(mostly for my sanity), she informed us that a ghost' core does five things; 1st the structure in cases its DNA, 2nd it pulsates energy throughout the body, 3rd it vibrate to unlock new from their paternal size, 4th it rotates to unlock abilities from their maternal size and 5th it empowers one often related to one's death. I was shocked to say the less.
While leaving I heard her mutters quickly, "I can't believe you've returned little Davy."
I quickly turn around to see her fly off but it was the name catches my attention.
As we leave school I must look tired because Sam looks at me and asks, "Gee, Danny. Fighting meat monsters, flying through walls...You must be exhausted."
I start to get defensive, "What? Of course not!" I begin to doze off, "What would give you that idea…"
3rd(POV)
As Danny passes out from exhaustion, Sam and Tucker rush over to him before he lands face first on the ground.
Sam yells, "Danny!"
As he falls he notices a wicked smile on her face, 'What's she thinking?'
Sam catches him as a ring of light appears and separate down the length of his body returning back to his human form.
Sam and Tucker look at each other and silently agree to carry him home.
3rd(POV)
Date/ Time/ Location: Tuesday, August 20, 2018/ 7:37 P.M./ Fenton Works
As Jazz opens the front door to FentonWorks, with a tablet in her hand and a satchel hanging from her shoulder.
She looks around the dark room with a puzzled look, "Mom? Dad?" she takes two steps into the room before the door suddenly slams shut behind her, then two smoke bombs roll in front of her and covering her in white smoke.
Jack's voice roars through the smoke, "Now, Maddie! Hit her! I'm moving in!"
Jazz shrieks, "Aaahhh!!!"
Jack still roaring through the smoke, "Get my back!"
As the smoke finally clears to show a severely irritated looking Jazz with her arms crossed as her parents while having latched themselves onto her legs and the Fenton Xtractor attached to the bottom of her hair.
She glances down at her parents with an intense glare, causing them to let go of her legs.
She thinks to herself, 'I'm starting to understand why Danny doesn't want anything to do with them.'
Jazz walks off with the Xtractor still on her hair, "This is all going in the memoir."
As her parents get up off the ground. The door suddenly opens to reveal Sam and Tucker carrying a now semi-conscious Danny.
Tucker smiles, "Hey, Mr. and Mrs. Fenton! What a school day! Poor Danny started nodding off."
Jack raises an eyebrow.
Danny in a tired voice, "Hey guys," this gets their attentions, "could you please help me up to my room?"
Sam shifts her hand around to Danny pectoral muscle.
Sam smiles, "Of course we can Danny."
As Danny's friends drag him up the stairs without another word.
Jack looks up at the ceiling in thought, "Hmm..."
Maddie tries to cut down her husband's thoughts, "Jack ...Danny is not a ghost."
Jack in a serious voice, "You're right," he glares at his own daughter trying to get his ghost vacuum cleaner off her hair but he continues, "Jazz is."
Meanwhile in Danny's room Sam and Tucker place him on his bed where he immediately falls asleep. Tucker prepares his homework on his desk. They then begin to do their homework with Sam occasionally look longingly at Danny.
(Time Skip)
Danny sleeping on top of his bed. His friends are currently doing their own thing; Tucker is playing Danny's newly bought game while Sam is drawing depressing landscapes. When suddenly Danny wakes up with a yell.
Danny, "Ah! W-W-what's going on!?"
Tucker pauses the game, looks down and Sam shifts to the edge of his bed with her sketchbook and looks down at him.
Tucker says, "You passed out. We brought you home. You've been asleep for four days!"
Danny sits up with a large amount of alter, "Four days!?"
Tucker chuckes "Nah man, it's only been a couple hours."
Danny looks around his room before laying back down and stares at the ceiling.
Sam puts her left hand on Danny's forehead, "You don't have a fever but I'd take it easy for the rest of the day."
Danny nods, "Yeah no problem."
As Danny begins to work on his homework; Tucker informs his two friends that his mother wants him home while Sam's parents have been in Spain(their go to vacation spot) expect her to be home at a certain time but can't do anything about it. After a solid hour of homework Danny decides to start cooking for both Sam and himself. After which a shower seemed very necessary, after that a storm started to form and with the storm lightning.
At this point, Danny knew Sam wouldn't be returning home tonight. The main point being Sam is deathly afraid of lightning to the point where she would literally cling to him as if her life depended on it. This was very common for her to the point she would refuse to sleep in any bed alone. It was actually during their second year of middle school when Mr. Lancer purposely kept them apart, this backfired greatly when Sam completely collapsed on the ground that is until she felt Danny's hand on her shoulder. She immediately cling to him and cried her eyes out onto his shoulder.
Lancer was heavily criticized for his decision to separate the two of them.
Danny was hoping the storm would pass before the next day... but that was very wishful thinking. As Sam fell asleep to the beat of his heart, he checks the forecast for tomorrow's weather only to see that the storm is predicted to be around late evening.
But all-in-all he can only complain about one thing about his current situation. With a beautiful woman and the secret love of his life resting on his chest, a number of men would fill complete but because she's his best friend he isn't allowed to physically hold her in his arms, let alone trying not to get an erection.
(Time Skip)
During the next morning he tried to convince Sam to take a shower, an argument he loss. The storm was going so heavily that she wanted him to shower with her. Because of this he dropped the argument for two reasons; first she can take her own shower and second they'd both be naked, in a confined space, he already has lustful dreams about her and doesn't need her naked, wet body next to him.
However the thought of school ws quickly dispelled from by an email from his sister, [Danny, I've emailed the Principle about Sam and yours situation. She has ruled that both of you don't have to attend school while the weather is this bad. Also both of your and Sam's class school work will be sent through email. --Jazz]
Danny(POV)
After informing Sam about the email we sit on the couch-with Sam still clinging to me-, when out of nowhere my parents come down the stairs with both suitcases and ghost hunting equipment. They seem to be shocked that Sam and I are on the couch but not before a flash of lightning engulfs the room. Causing Sam to basically throw herself at me.
Jack in a surprised tone, "Danny-boy aren't you two suppose to be at school?"
I raise an eyebrow, "Sam has a crippling fear of lightning to the point of panic attacks," I then go back to typing up a paper for Lancer.
Maddie glaring at Sam, "Seriously it can't be that bad."
I speak up, "Her therapist recommend a comfort pet however because her mother is allergic to animal dandruff-"
Maddie interrupts with a scoff, "Figures Pamela won't allow that," she turns back to us, "So what are you two going to do then?"
Sam slowly speaks up, "We were going to do our homework as it comes in through email."
"So," I attempt to distract them, "what's with all the stuff," they look at their stuff, "with those suitcase, I would suspect an airplane travel however it could also be for holding your ghost hunting equipment."
Jack being the idiot he is, "That right Danny my boy, these are supplies for a convention in London but Maddie wants to do some field testing before leaving."
Jack continues to talk about the inventions and eventually Maddie pulls him out towards the Fenton Assault Vehicle(RV) leaving Sam and I on the couch.
Minutes later my ghost sense goes off.
"Oh, shit."
"Danny," I look down at Sam to her looking at me with sad puppy dog eyes.
I transform, carry her to my room, I place on my bed and phaze through her grip-much to her dismay-. I quickly grab three things and immediately put them on her; the first is a blindfold, the second is an MP3 player and a pair of headphones.
"Danny," she grabs my shirt, "I think I need something else to hold myself together."
In response I phaze out of my shirt causing her to hold it to her chest. I then kiss her forehead. Despite being called 'Clueless' I'm not, it only took me longer to understand my feelings for her.
I pull away and fly away.
(Meanwhile at Casper High)
Jazz is talking with a goth male sitting at a picnic table away from the 'chaos' of the school. His name is Spike and he's without an umbrella allowing him to be drenched in 'his own sorrow'. While Jazz is under the umbrella of her own trying to get an emotional break through from him.
Jazz, "Spike, you have to open up to your parents! Be true to yourself and them!"
Spike wears all black, has a mohawk and is covered in piercings.
Jazz continues, "Tell them how you feel!" Spike looks slightly up with unemotionally eyes but in reality he's thinking, "I mean, it's not like they're gonna attack you or anything-"
Jasmine's eyes widen as a green net suddenly appears and captures her in it. She yelps in surprise. Spike watches as Jasmine in the net is dragged off with unblinking eyes.
Jack reels in the net while standing behind some bushes.
Jack stills reeling in the net, "I've got her!" Maddie stands from her cover while Jack continues, "And the Fenton Grappler is working like a charm!"
Maddie on the other looks a bit skeptical, "I don't understand. If Jazz is a ghost, why hasn't she just phased through the net?"
Jazz stands with the net still on her and surprising both Jack and Maddie, "Because I am NOT A," she throws the net off of her, "GHOST! You've ambushed me, suffocated me with smoke, and worse!? I was pulled away from Spike before he had his breakthrough! What do you have to say for yourselves!?"
Jack and Maddie are both silent until Jack suddenly holds the Fenton Thermos out in front of them.
He yells out, "Eat hot Fenton Thermos, ghost gal!"
The Thermos does nothing but sparks, flashes and powers down. All the while Jazz looks down at the Thermos before looking up with an intense glare.
Jack looks at the Thermos with scrutiny, "Hmph," he begins to shake the Thermos back and forth, "Darn thing still doesn't work!"
Danny on the other hand is sent flying upwards a plane. Inside the plane to a businessman is being handed a glass of water from a female flight attendant.
She smiles, "There's your water, sir!"
As the businessman reaches for said water when out of nowhere Danny suddenly phases through and up out of the ceiling. Both watch as Danny phases through the ceiling then the floor again, grabbing the businessman's water cup out of his hand on his way out.
Danny while phasing through, "Thanks!"
As Danny flies back towards the ecto-pus, with the water cup in his hand. He splashes the water from the class on his face before throwing the cup aside.
(Meanwhile on the ground)
Jazz looks irritated with her arms crossed in front of her. He suddenly smiles before looking at the Thermos in his hand.
Jack's smile turns into a serious frown, "I, Jack Fenton, from this day forth do hereby turn my back on ghosts."
Danny slams into the ghost sending it back the ectopus several feet back however the ghost grabs Danny and sends him flying towards the ground.
Jack continues to look down at the Fenton Thermos, "And this Thermos can't trap ghosts because ghosts don't exist."
Jack tosses the Thermos over his shoulder as Maddie and Jazz look on in shock.
However as Danny continues to fall the Thermos flies into his face and he catches it.
Danny looks at the Thermos, "The Fenton Thermos! But how am I going to get it to work!?"
The ecto-pus looks down furiously before chasing after him.
Danny lands on the ground between Jazz and her parents creating a creator and sending the small group away.
Danny looks up from the ground and quietly says, "Thanks... for the Thermos!"
Jack begins to stammer, "Gh-ghost K-kid! I was right!! I never doubted it for a second!"
Jasmine doesn't look pleased but not from the kid hitting from the ground but from her parents being right. Maddie is shocked that a ghost landed in front of her, a ghost hunter but also the complete 180 her husband did in morals. Jack is elated that his lifelong dream is realized.
Danny stands and quietly says, "Please work?"
He takes off the cap of the Thermos and aims the Thermos up towards the ecto-pus.
He yells out, "I hope I'm right!"
Unknown to Danny his core beings to rotate extremely fast and a blue aura surrounds Danny and then the Thermos that powers up before releasing a stream of energy from it, knocking Danny backwards a little bit. The energy forms a vortex that surrounds the surprised ecto-pus and traps it.
The ecto-pus screeches in defiance.
The energy vortex swirls and sucks the ghost into the Thermos and Danny closes the lid back onto the Thermos.
Danny smiles before looking at his would be guardians, "Sorry but I think I'll be keeping this for a while."
He turns invisible only for Jack to yell, "We got a runner!"
Jack and Maddie run after him in an unplanned direction leaving Jazz with her arms crossed and a frown.
Jazz with irritation and in defeat, "Great," she begins to walk away, "Back to square one."
As Danny flies away a large headache envelopes, he lands on a random roof, looks at his hands only to see a set of three cards…
Danny(POV)
I wake up from after falling unconscious out to find three cards in my hand. All of them have a silver back but upon flipping it over to see black 'ink'.
On the front of the first has some type of chain design along the sides, it has a black background, several stars in said background, a planet in the middle ground with Saturn like rings and a rocket near the front. Just as well there's some type of text at the top to the bottom reads, 'The Astronaut- Defined by his desire to learn, he dreams of being a hero of vastness of space.- From the desire of heroics and with the body of stardust, I call upon you Astro.'.
The second has a single black panther; it reads, 'The Goth- Defined by her enjoyment of darkness and all of its creatures, she savoirs the truth hidden in the shadows.- From the mysteries of darkness and with the body of shadows, I call upon you Nyx'.
The third has a technology symbol(pacifically Tucker's; it's basically three arrowheads with the points out like a triangle and with a smaller inverted triangle in the middle of it,) he carves into all of this personal technology. It read, 'The Geek- Defined by his scene of friendship and his love of technology, he relishes in the diet of a carnivore.- From the order of friendship and the body of technology, I call upon you Horus.'
I shrug and fly home in the rain. There I phaze into my room, to see Sam laying on her bed however she's not wearing my headphones or the blind holds but is now sniffing one of my shirts.
I walk up and shake her, "Sam."
Sam(POV)
After Danny flies off I take off that damn blind hold and headphones but I start to sniff his shirt.
Truth be told I was afraid of thunder but after my panic attack I started to study. Study what? Study more magic. Yes magic, and it all started with my father. He goes by the name of 'Hex' and he's a mage and with his blood it makes me a mage as well.
In short I'm proficient with a few different aspects of magic but I'm most proficient in shadow and light based magics as well earth and water to help with my garden. When utilizing water I can create clouds or thin blades to cut down anything, with earth I can essentially use nuclear fusion to create precious metals or explode said metals, however I may or may not have been giving the A-lister girls bad luck with shadow magic and increase my friends and my own luck, just as well can create illusions(mainly against those A-listers). My most powerful spells are my 'spelling'(an ancient form of magic), basically I write in the air and say an incantation. In doing so I can literally tip the scales of battle. However my most useful magic is the Jewel Magic, I actually create the jewels with my own magic into different shapes, these shapes correspond to different effects. Octagonal- is fire, Hexagonal- is ice, Square- is an energy shield, Triangle- is a lightning bolt, Tear- is healing, Bullet- is a straight shot magic energy and Trapezohedron- is my most powerful, gravity field.
The thing is during the dark ages in Europe a magical government was set up to essentially keep mages like myself in check. But more on that later.
My fear of storms slowly became less and less until I'm no longer afraid but the reason I haven't told Danny is because I've always liked the attention. I know it's a little selfish of me but the way he takes care of me is the only thing that stops me. But I have come to the realization that I need to tell him.
I use my light magic to change the shape of one of the charms on my bracelet from the size of a marble to the size of a standard crystal ball. I use a bit of magic to see where Danny is, I basically hold up my right pinky and index fingers and consecrate. An orb of white light forms between my fingers, I then toss it into the crystal ball to view distance scenes and what I see is something incredible.
From the crystal ball I see an event at the school. Danny is currently battling a powerful ecto-pus, it's surprisingly more powerful than any other ecto-pi he has faced so far. The ghost begins to spin to the point it becomes a blur. It rushes Danny only for him to wave his hand, leaving a small shield the size of his hand. The ghost stops spinning, raises three of its arms and fires ecto-blast out of all three of them at once. It hits the ground at Danny's feet, sending him flying backwards. The ecto-pus brings its arms over its head, starts to spin and dives into the ground. As Danny is about to hit the ground the ecto-pus re-emerges out of ground, quickly unwraps its arm and fires ecto-blasts out of all of its arm, sending Danny flying into the air. The ghost turns its attention to the civilians specify the Fentons(Jack seems to be holding a thermos at his own daughter, Jazz, most likely believing she's a ghost, that fucking idoit) however before the ecto-pus could go anywhere Danny slams into the it. Much to Danny's surprise the ghost wraps three of its arms around him and throws him down to the ground. On his way down he gets hit by that damn thermos but I can see the gears turning in his head.
He hits the ground, throwing his sister and 'parents' back several feet into the mud. Jazz seems to be shocked most likely that her father is right, Maddie seems to be shocked for a different reason. All the while Jack is elated.
Danny uncaps the thermos and yells, "I hope I'm right!"
A light blue energy engulfs both the thermos and him, a vortex fires out and pulls the ecto-pus into the thermos.'
I end my vision, shrink my crystal ball back down, reconnect it to my bracelet and wait. I'm eventually shaken awake.
"Sam."
I groan and barry my face into his shirt. I know it's Danny but I just like to tease him a bit.
"Damn it Dad it's Saturday leave me alone."
I get shaken some more and hear him closer, "Sam you know damn well that it's me Danny."
I slowly open my eyes to see him leaning over me, I decided to risk it all, lean in and kiss him.
As I pull away, I put one of my fingers on his lips mainly to keep him quiet while I say, "You have a very sweet kiss."
"S-S-S-S-Sam why!" He stammers as if his brain has shut down, in a way I find rather cute.
I smile and give him bedroom eye and say, "Because I'm tired of being try a friend," it's then that Danny's face becomes as red as the tomatoes I grow, "I know you feel the same, I see the attraction in your eyes and I'm willing to take it slow," his face turns to a more pink color.
He then crawls into the bed and pulls me close by my waist, "If we do this then we can't tell Tucker."
I nod my head, we love Tucker in all but if he thought it would make him popular then he would tell the world.
Danny smiles, kisses me on the lips, "Then how we start with the fact that you're not afraid of lightning."
I chuckle, "Well I guess it all started with my real father..."
{And that's the chapter remember to follow, favorite and review. I can't promise it'll be a great update.}
