Danny Phantom Forever

Note: I'm back. I'm going to do a couple of chapters of this story before doing my next chapter of my Teen Titans story. Regardless, it's good to be working on my Danny Phantom story again.

Food For Thought

It was a peaceful evening in Amity Park and Danny was relaxing as he ate dinner at Nasty Burger with his best friend Tucker and his girlfriend Sam. Danny had finished his food and was drinking a shake while Sam was eating a salad and Tucker was happily eating a huge burger.

Danny stopped drinking his shake as he smiled with a relaxed expression as he said, "Ah, this is the life, huh guys?"

Tucker swallowed a bite of his burger and happily said, "Oh yeah. Nothing like a Double Nasty Deluxe to make you feel nice and full."

Sam looked at Tucker and shrewdly said, "If you eat much more of that cow you'll be a lot more than full."

Tucker faced her with his eyes closed as he firmly said, "Thanks Sam, but I'm a true meat lover with a big appetite to fill."

Sam folded her arms as she said, "You're also a teen with a lot of cholesterol and a rising amount of fat."

Tucker glared at her as he pointed at her salad and said, "Well at least I'm getting more protein and iron in my diet."

Danny showed a tedious expression before smiling and closing his eyes while he said, "Guys please don't start. Let's just enjoy this moment of peace, quiet, food, and best of all, no ghosts."

Then he opened his eyes and gasped as his ghost sense went off and Sam nervously said, "Spoke too soon."

Just then, Tucker's burger floated out of his hands and into the air, along with the burgers of the other customers.

They all flew out the window and into the sky, then Danny jumped out of his seat and yelled, "I'm going ghost!"

He transformed into his ghost form and flew out while everyone cheered for him; Tucker and Sam were about to follow when the waitress came and gave them their bill. Tucker and Sam were both annoyed as they looked at each other, meanwhile Danny was flying with a ghostly tail as he followed the food flying through the sky. He passed by his house, and in the kitchen Maddie pulled a tray full of fudge brownies out of the oven.

She placed them on the counter to cool off while she happily said, "Yes! They're ready! Perfect as always! I'll just leave them here to cool off and get back to those ectoplasmic goo petri dishes."

She walked out of the kitchen and shortly after she left Jack and Danielle walked by the kitchen when Jack stopped and sniffed the air.

Danielle looked up at him as she curiously asked, "What is it dad?"

Jack turned and spotted the brownies as he pointed at them and happily said, "There!"

He and Danielle hurried to the tray as Danielle happily said, "(gasp) Mom made fudge brownies! They look great!"

Jack happily sniffed them as he said, "And they smell delicious!"

Meanwhile Danny was still following the flying food but stopped and floated in the air when he saw even more food flying over the park. He looked and saw the cause of this strange phenomenon, the Lunch Lady ghost who had all of the food swirling around her.

She looked at Danny with a friendly smile before looking furious while she said, "Hello deary. PREPARE TO TASTE MY WRATH!"

All of the food gathered over her as she used it to become a giant meat monster as she yelled in fury while Danny watched in terror.

Opening theme

Music played as the title card was shown; it was a picture of Danny, Tucker, and Sam restrained by meat, screaming in terror as the Lunch Lady looked down at them viciously. Danny was floating in the air as he looked up at the giant meat monster standing over him with a ferocious expression.

The Lunch Lady stared at Danny angrily before happily pulling out a bowl of pudding saying, "Prepare to savor the agony of defeat! Pudding?"

Danny stared at her as he held his palms up and reluctantly said, "Uh… Sure."

She threw the pudding away and viciously said, "Tough luck! Sweets are too good for brats like you!"

She punched Danny with her giant meaty hand and knocked him down to the ground, then she stomped on him.

Danny smashed his way out of the meat monster's foot and glared back at her as he said, "That's it! I just wanted to enjoy dinner with my friends but now you've spoiled it along with most of that meat! Listen to this!"

He took a deep breath and used his Ghostly Wail on her, and she screamed as Danny's attack broke apart her body. All the meat and food came off and fell to the ground until Danny stopped and noticed the Lunch Lady was gone.

He looked around and curiously said, "Huh? Where'd she go?"

Tucker and Sam showed up as they ran into the park and both yelled, "Danny!"

Tucker saw all the food on the ground and was disappointed as he said, "Whoa! What a waste of good meat."

Sam curiously asked, "What happened?"

Danny floated down in front of them as he said, "It was the Lunch Lady."

Sam looked annoyed as she said, "Should've guessed."

Tucker held his palm up as he curiously asked, "Well where is she?"

Danny shrugged then smiled cockily while he replied, "I don't know. I used my Ghostly Wail to destroy her meat monster, but now she's gone. I guess she got smart and took off to avoid getting her butt kicked. Come on, let's go."

He flew in the air and carried Tucker and Sam, unaware that the Lunch Lady was watching them with a vexed expression.

Meanwhile at Fenton Works

Jack and Danielle were sitting on the couch playing with action figures; Jack was playing with two action figures, one looked like a ghost and other looked like him.

He made his action figure punch the ghost one as he happily said, "Take that, and that!"

Danielle held action figures that looked like Danny and Jazz as she looked up at Jack and said, "Dad, can you make an action figure of me?"

Jack smiled down at her as he said, "Sure Danielle. I'll get right on it."

Maddie walked by and happily said, "Hey you two."

Jack smiled at her while Danielle raised her right hand and said, "Hi mom."

Maddie walked in the kitchen, then she angrily exclaimed, "Jack! Danielle!"

Jack and Danielle were startled as they dropped their action figures when Maddie came back in with an empty tray as she angrily asked, "Did you two eat all my brownies?"

Danielle happily rubbed her belly and said, "Yeah and they were great!"

Jack smiled as he complimented Maddie and said, "Yep baby. Great job as always."

Maddie angrily stared at the tray and said, "I made two dozen of those brownies and now they're all gone!"

Danielle nervously looked up at Jack as she said, "I told you we should've saved her some."

Jack looked at Maddie as he apologized, "Maddie, we're sorry. They just smelled so good and we couldn't resist."

She kept glaring at them when she sternly said, "I know you two liked them but you shouldn't have eaten so many so fast."

Just then, Danny phased himself, Tucker, and Sam in through ceiling and changed back to his human form.

He, Tucker, and Sam looked at the others with curious expressions as Danny asked, "Hey guys. What's up?"

Maddie looked back at them as she angrily said, "I baked twenty-four fudge brownies and your father and Danielle ate them all!"

Danielle pointed her right thumb at Jack before holding up four fingers while she said, "Dad ate most of them. I only had four."

Maddie put her hand on her hip as she sternly said, "Even so, you shouldn't have eaten so many of them!"

Jazz walked in through the front door and curiously asked, "What's going on? What's all this yelling about?"

Maddie looked at Jazz and showed her the empty tray as she said, "Your father and sister ate all the brownies I made."

Danielle held her hand out as she said, "We said we were sorry."

Maddie put the tray down and put her hands on her hips as she sternly said, "Sorry's not good enough Danielle. You two need to show some more self-control when it comes to sweets."

Sam walked up next to Maddie and raised her finger as she said, "She's right. You really should eat healthier, like me. I'm an ultra-recyclo-vegetarian."

Maddie smiled at Sam then sternly looked at Danielle and Jack as she said, "Thank you Sam. You've given me a great idea. From now on the Fentons are going on a diet."

Jack and Danielle were shocked as they simultaneously exclaimed, "What?!"

Maddie had her hands on her hips and then pointed her left finger at the doorway as she sternly said, "No more junk food in this house. We are going to eat nothing but healthy nutritious food from now on. Now you two go clear out any snacks you have stored around the house."

Jack and Danielle got off the couch and started walking while Danielle glared at Sam and said, "Thanks a lot Sam!"

Once they left Jazz went up to Maddie and said, "Mom, I like that you want dad and Danielle to eat healthier but I don't think this is a good idea. Dad and Danielle may have a problem but this isn't going to help them. You should try to find a compromise."

Danny joined them as he agreed, "Yeah, they should cut back but making them quit cold turkey isn't the right thing to do."

Maddie looked at the two of them as she said, "I appreciate your support kids but those two need to learn some restraint."

She walked into the other room and Danny sighed in exasperation and said, "Great. Now we have to eat diet food until mom gives up on this."

Sam smiled as she raised her finger and then pointed at Tucker while she said, "I think she's got the right idea. People really should eat healthier, especially you Tuck."

Tucker smiled proudly as he said, "Sorry Sam, but I'm a meat kind of guy, and there's nothing you can do to change that."

He walked out the front door and Sam smiled deviously as she said, "We'll see about that."

Over the next few days Maddie was cracking down on putting her whole family on a diet while Sam was trying to impose her vegetarian lifestyle on Tucker. Maddie made everyone eat oatmeal for breakfast, which Jack and Danielle did not like as they missed cereal and pancakes. Tucker was doing work at City Hall when his lunch came, but instead of the sandwich he wanted he only had a salad with a note from Sam. Tucker was annoyed as he pushed the plate away and did not eat lunch as he stared forward and rested his head in his right hand. One day Jack was by himself in their house when he tried to open a bag of chips, but Maddie caught him as she looked at him sternly. He gave her the bag as he moped and she gave it to a boy who was walking down the street, and he happily accepted the bag of chips. One night Sam dragged Tucker over to a restaurant she liked to eat at and made him get a vegetarian dish. He just rested his head in his hands as he glared down at the dish, refusing to eat it, then he glared at Sam while she enjoyed her food. Maddie kept making her family eat healthy food and forbidding them from eating junk while Sam kept trying to impose her vegetarian style on Tucker.

One night Jack went up to Danielle's room and looked around to make sure no one was watching him. He quietly snuck into her room and waited for a moment before Danielle phased into the room before turning solid.

She smiled as she held two bags of Nasty Burger as Jack happily said, "Atta girl!"

She turned human and gave him one bag as she said, "Here dad. I got everything. This was a great idea."

Jack smiled as he pulled out a fry and said, "Yep, what your mother doesn't know won't hurt her."

Suddenly they both heard Maddie's voice say, "Think again!"

They were startled as they both looked up to see Maddie hanging from the ceiling like a ninja before she fell down and landed on her feet.

Danielle curiously asked, "How long were you up there?"

Maddie sternly looked at them as she held her left hand out and said, "Long enough, now hand it over."

Jack put his fry back in the bag as he whined, "Aww!"

He gave the bag to Maddie and so did Danielle and Maddie firmly said, "I'm sorry you two but this is for your own good."

She left and threw the Nasty Burger away while Danielle and Jack moped a bit before going outside together.

The next day Danny, Tucker, and Sam were walking together down a sidewalk when Tucker's stomach started growing.

He held his stomach in hunger then sniffed the air as he frantically said, "Meat!"

He took off running as he came to a butcher shop and saw meat in the window, he stared at it with his desire and hunger.

He kept staring at the food as he said, "Meat! Come to me! Come to me!"

Sam came and grabbed his arms as she tried to drag him away and said, "Tucker get a hold of yourself! You don't need meat!"

Tucker desperately tried to break free as he said, "Yes I do!"

Danny was watching when he gasped as his ghost sense went off, suddenly the meat in the butcher shop started moving. Some raw chickens started walking all by themselves while a bunch of sausages slithered like a snake and other meat came out.

All the meat faced Danny, Tucker, and Sam; Tucker was stunned as he said, "Wow, I must be hungrier than I thought because I'm seeing meat coming toward me."

Sam was just as stunned as she said, "It's not just you."

Just then the Lunch Lady phased out of the butcher shop and smiled evilly at them as she said, "Anyone hungry?"

Danny then went ghost and flew at the Lunch Lady as he pinned her to the ground and said, "Sorry, lunch is over!"

She forced him off of her and created a whole ham in her right hand and hit him in the head with it, knocking him back toward Tucker and Sam.

The Lunch Lady then fiercely yelled, "Then taste my appetizers of doom!"

The meat then attacked them as Tucker pulled out a fork and knife and said, "I'll handle this!"

Sam held him back as she forcefully said, "No!"

The meat items then hit them and knocked them down, the sausages wrapped around Sam like a snake while the chickens held Tucker down. Danny immediately helped them as he ripped the sausages off of Sam and then used his ice powers to freeze the chickens. He destroyed the remaining meat items as he fired ecto-rays from his fingertips, blasting them to bits.

The Lunch Lady glared at them as she furiously said, "You kids will learn to appreciate my cooking, one way or the other!"

She then flew away and Sam curiously asked, "What did she mean by that?"

Danny shrugged his shoulders as he said, "Beats me."

Tucker glared at Sam as he angrily said, "Why'd you stop me? I'm starving and I could've helped!"

Sam stubbornly glared at Tucker as she said, "You don't need meat! You're better off without it!"

Tucker raised his arms as he angrily said, "I'm running on empty! You've been messing with my diet and I'm sick of it!"

Sam angrily pointed her finger at Tucker and said, "I'm doing you a favor! I'm showing you the benefits of being an ultra-recyclo-vegetarian and I'm not gonna stop!"

She turned and walked away and Tucker looked at Danny as he said, "Danny, she's your girlfriend. You do something."

Danny held his hands up as he calmly said, "I'll talk to her tomorrow."

Later at Fenton Works, Maddie was in the kitchen chopping vegetables when Danielle floated in behind her, invisible. She quietly floated behind Maddie toward a cookie jar, smiling as she phased her hand inside it and took out a cookie.

She was about to eat it when Maddie, staring forward, sternly said, "Put the cookie back Danielle."

Danielle was shocked and disappointed as she did as her mother said and put the cookie back in the jar.

She turned visible and floated over to Maddie as she asked, "How did you know I was there?"

Maddie looked at Danielle with a proud smile as she said, "Danielle, ghost powers or not I'm still your mother, and a mother knows her children."

Danielle stood on the floor and turned human as she pleaded, "Mom please! I'm sorry about the brownies!"

Maddie kept chopping the vegetables as she said, "This isn't about the brownies sweetie. You and your father need to learn some self-control."

Danielle kept looking up at Maddie as she complained, "But this is torture!"

Maddie stopped chopping, kneeled down, and put her hands on Danielle's shoulders as she sincerely said, "Danielle, I know this isn't fun for you but it's for your own good. I want all of my kids to be healthy. I don't want you to turn out like your father."

Danielle looked Maddie in the face as she honestly said, "I don't want to end up like dad either."

Maddie showed love as she said, "You see? That's why you need to eat healthier."

Danielle held her palms up as she respectfully asked, "But can't I eat healthier and still eat what I want to eat?"

Maddie stared Danielle in the face as she solemnly said, "I'm sorry Danielle but no. I'm your mother and I know what's best for you, so I can decide what you can and can't eat, same goes for your brother, your sister, and your father. One day you'll thank me for this."

She smiled as she stood up and walked out of the kitchen, leaving Danielle alone and disappointed as she stared down at the floor.

Jazz walked in and smiled down at Danielle comfortingly as she said, "Don't worry Danielle. Mom will come around."

The next day at Casper High

It was lunchtime and Danny was sitting at a table with Tucker and Sam as Tucker angrily stared at the vegetarian meal Sam made him get.

Sam looked at Tucker as she said, "Come on Tucker. At least take a bite of it."

Tucker glared at her as he angrily said, "No way!"

Sam held her palm up as she said, "You have to eat something."

Tucker put his hands on the table as he angrily said, "I would if you let me get what I wanted to eat!"

Sam stubbornly said, "This is much better for you than meat! Eat it and you'll see that I'm right!"

Tucker leaned closer to her as he angrily said, "Like you were right when you changed the menu?!"

Sam pointed her finger as she angrily said, "Hey! If it weren't for the Lunch Lady everything would've been fine!"

Danny then said, "Guys stop it! Sam, Tucker's right. This is too much. You can't decide what he can and can't eat."

Sam stubbornly pointed at Tucker's plate and said, "This is much healthier."

Danny honestly said, "Even if it is you can't make him eat it if he doesn't want to. You can't force him to be a vegetarian like you."

Just then, Mr. Lancer came and looked down at them as he sternly said, "Is everything okay over here?"

They all smiled nervously as Danny said, "Uh… Yes Mr. Lancer. Everything's fine."

He sternly looked at all three of them as he said, "Good, because you three have been making a lot of noise today."

Danny raised his hands as he said, "It's okay Mr. Lancer. There's nothing to worry about."

Suddenly he gasped as his ghost sense went off and Tucker nervously said, "Or maybe there is."

Just then the Lunch Lady ghost phased up out of the floor and floated in the air as she turned solid and said, "Hello children."

Danny, Tucker, and Sam gasped in shock while Mr. Lancer exclaimed, "Ms. Beef?!"

The Lunch Lady smiled at Mr. Lancer as she happily said, "Oh hello there Terrance."

Danny was shocked as he looked at Mr. Lancer and said, "You know her?!"

Mr. Lancer looked at him, Tucker, and Sam while pointing his thumb at the Lunch Lady while he said, "She was the lunch lady at Casper High when I was a student here."

Tucker was amazed as he said, "Wow!"

Mr. Lancer looked a bit nervous as she explained, "She was an excellent cook and took her job very seriously. She would often get angry when kids did not appreciate her cooking."

The Lunch Lady then held up a bunch of bananas as she politely asked, "Would anyone like some bananas?"

All the kids glanced at each other before shaking their heads "no", then the Lunch Lady furiously said, "Then feast on my outrage!"

Her hands glowed green as she lifted them in the air and then all the food in the cafeteria flew in the air, and food from the kitchen flew out and into the air. Just then Jazz burst through the doors to see what all the commotion was about and she gasped in shock as she saw the Lunch Lady and all the flying food. The food joined together to form monsters made out of meat that shrieked and roared in fury while all the kids screamed in fear.

Mr. Lancer was very shocked as he yelled, "The Omnivore's Dilemma!"

Two of the meat monsters attacked him as they tackled him to the ground while the rest of them attacked the other children. Four meat monsters came at Tucker and Sam and restrained them

Danny immediately jumped out of his seat and yelled, "I'm going ghost!"

He changed into his ghost form and flew to help his friends as he blasted the meat monsters with ghost rays and destroyed them. He smiled until the monsters reformed; he was about to attack again when several meat monsters swarmed all over him and overpowered him.

Jazz watched in terror as she cried, "Danny!"

She narrowed her eyes as she pulled out the Fenton Peeler, but before she could activate it a couple of meat monsters attacked her. They knocked the Peeler out of her hand and pinned her to the ground while Tucker and Sam were restrained by four meat monsters. The meat monsters that swarmed over Danny became one big pile of meat that buried him until he poked his head out.

He struggled as he grunted and said, "Can't break free! Can't go intangible!"

The Lunch Lady glared daggers at him as she viciously said, "Now you will taste my fury!"

Jazz managed to pull her right arm free as she pulled out her phone and urgently said, "Mom, it's Jazz! There's a ghost here at school and she's got Danny trapped! We need…"

One of the meat monsters took Jazz's phone from her before she could finish talking and then threw it away. All of the students and Mr. Lancer were trapped in piles of meat as they cried in terror, unable to move.

The Lunch Lady floated in the air as she looked down at all of them and said, "You kids will all get some iron in your diet or perish!"

Commercial break

Everyone in the cafeteria was trapped in huge piles of meat as they struggled desperately go break free to no avail.

The Lunch Lady floated over them with a platter of steaks as she happily said, "Alright, first on the menu is steaks. Who wants some?"

No one said anything and the Lunch Lady floated over to Jazz as she cheerfully said, "How about you dearie? They're medium rare."

Jazz looked at the steaks before looking at the Lunch Lady as she whined, "But I already ate lunch."

The Lunch Lady became furious as she yelled, "You need to eat more! Strengthen your appetite! Put some meat on your bones!"

Jazz leaned back as she stared at the Lunch Lady in fear, then the Lunch Lady smiled as she said, "Now wait right there sweetie. I'll come back later with some roast beef."

She then floated over to Sam and politely said, "Have some meat my dear. It's good for you."

Sam glared at her as she defiantly said, "I don't eat meat! I'm a vegetarian!"

The Lunch Lady furiously clinched her fists and stared Sam in the face as she exclaimed, "Weak! You need vitamins, protein, minerals! You need meat!"

She flew away to feed some more kids while Tucker disappointedly said, "I'd like some meat right now, but I'd also like to move my legs."

Danny looked at them with a serious expression as he said, "Don't worry guys. We'll get out of this. Somehow."

Meanwhile at Fenton Works

Jack snuck into the kitchen, glancing around to make sure he was alone before he happily opened the fridge and pulled out a piece of chocolate cake.

He was about to eat it when Maddie rushed in with her goggles on as she exclaimed, "Jack!"

Jack looked at Maddie as he complained, "Come on honey. Just one little desert."

Maddie looked at Jack as she frantically said, "Jack we don't have time for this! Jazz just called; there's a ghost at school! She and Danny are in trouble!"

Jack immediately forgot about the cake as he seriously said, "Grab the gear Maddie! We'll get Danielle, beat that ghost, and save our kids!"

He and Maddie both took off running as they hurried to grab some weapons before getting in the Fenton Family Ghost Assault Vehicle. Later at Casper Junior High, Danielle's school, she was in the cafeteria as she happily carried a tray of food and sat down at a table.

She smiled down at her food as she happily said, "At least mom can't tell me what to eat at school."

Suddenly Jack and Maddie burst through the doors and looked at her as Maddie exclaimed, "Danielle stop!"

Danielle was shocked as they came to her and she whined, "Aww mom! Can't I just enjoy lunchtime at school?"

They both looked down at her as Maddie urgently said, "Danielle, Danny and Jazz are in trouble! There's a ghost at their school!"

Danielle was shocked as she exclaimed, "What?!"

Jack urgently pointed his finger at Danielle before pointing his thumb behind him as he said, "That's right! Now go ghost or whatever it is you do and let's go!"

Danielle narrowed her eyes as she stood up and changed to her ghost form, prompting all the other kids in the cafeteria to cheer for her.

She floated in the air and smiled eagerly at her parents as she said, "Let's kick some butt!"

Jack and Maddie turned and started running while Maddie flew beside them as they hurried out to stop the Lunch Lady.

Back at Casper High

Everyone in the Cafeteria was still trapped in the piles of meat as the Lunch Lady started force feeing them. She would shove pieces of meat into kids mouths against their will before moving on to do the same to others.

She shoved a chicken leg into Mr. Lancer's mouth and smiled as she happily said, "Just like old times, eh Terrance."

Mr. Lancer spit the chicken leg out and looked up at the Lunch Lady as he begged, "Ms. Beef please! This is cruel and unusual!"

The Lunch Lady snapped at Mr. Lancer before turning sweet as she held another chicken leg while she said, "Silence! You need muscle! Fiber! Fat! You know how you get that? Meat! Meat cooked with love. Now eat up dearie."

She shoved the chicken leg into Mr. Lancer's mouth again and he muffled something before she floated away.

Danny, Jazz, Sam, and Tucker watched this with displeasure as Sam exasperatedly said, "This is so wrong!"

Tucker agreed as he said, "Yeah, I love meat but this is taking it too far."

Jazz looked at the others with fear as she urgently said, "We have to get out of here and help the others!"

Danny struggled in the pile of meat trapping him as he desperately said, "Her meat is cancelling out my ghost powers. I can't break free!"

Sam narrowed her eyes as she angrily said, "This is gone on too long! She can't force people to eat meat!"

Tucker glared at Sam as he accusingly asked, "Why not? You like to force people to eat vegetables like you."

Sam looked at him but said nothing as she came to realize he was right and she hung her head with regret.

The Lunch Lady then floated up to her and happily said, "Meatloaf dearie?"

Sam glared at the Lunch Lady as she defiantly said, "I won't! You can't make me!"

The Lunch Lady then furiously exclaimed, "Then fall!"

Her hands glowed green as she prepared to attack Sam, just then Danielle phased up through the floor behind her. She turned solid and hit the Lunch Lady with a ball of ecto-energy and knocked her away from Sam and into a wall.

Danny smiled as he happily said, "Dani!"

Then Jack and Maddie burst through the doors behind Danielle, prompting Jazz to happily say, "Mom! Dad!"

Maddie carried a large rifle blaster in her arms while Jack held a Fenton Foamer and they both gritted their teeth with serious expressions.

Maddie glared at the Lunch Lady as she fiercely exclaimed, "No one force feeds my children horrible food!"

She blasted at the Lunch Lady, but she held her hands out as she made a wall of meat rise in front of her and block the green ray.

She floated toward them as she clinched her fists and angrily said, "This is MY cafeteria! I serve lunch! I control food! I decide what the kids eat!"

She sent a huge pile of meat flying toward Danielle, Jack, and Maddie but they got out of the way as Maddie landed on her feet.

Maddie glared at the Lunch Lady again as she said, "Well I think they've had enough to eat!"

She blasted a green ray at the Lunch Lady and hit her, but the Lunch Lady recovered and said, "For you I have a recipe for disaster!"

She held her hands up and they glowed with green energy as six meat monsters formed in front of her, glaring at Danielle and her parents.

They came running at them while Danielle's hands glowed green as she yelled, "Food fight!"

Maddie fired her blaster at two meat monsters and destroyed them, Jack shot some globs of goo at two more, covering them and making them piles of regular meat. Danielle swiped her right leg through the air and destroyed the remaining two with a wave of ecto-energy.

The Lunch Lady glared daggers at them as she angrily said, "No one messes with my mealtime!"

She then made a bunch of forks and knives float in the air and point at them before sending them flying toward the three Fentons. Danielle grabbed Jack and Maddie as she turned herself and them intangible, allowing the forks and knives to harmlessly pass through them. They turned solid and Danielle flew at the Lunch Lady and punched her in the face, then she kicked her in the stomach, then she did a roundhouse kick and knocked her down. She got back up as Danielle came flying toward her, but the Lunch Lady created a frying pan in her hand and hit Danielle in the face with it, knocking her to the floor.

Maddie aimed her blaster at the Lunch Lady as she yelled, "How dare you hit my little girl! Have some of mama's home cooking!"

She blasted at the Lunch Lady three times but missed, and the Lunch Lady held her hand out as she made a bunch of meat fly at Maddie. She trapped her in a pile of meat like she did the others and Jack gasped in shock as he watched Maddie.

The Lunch Lady floated up to Jack as she held up a plate of muffins and kindly said, "Sir, would you like a muffin?"

Jack smiled happily as he said, "Yes!"

She handed him the plate as she happily said, "Here you go."

He then started eating muffins as the Lunch Lady smiled and watched him; Danny was shocked as he said, "Seriously?!"

Maddie also looked annoyed as she said, "Jack!"

Danielle suddenly stood up and raised her finger while she smiled and politely asked, "Can I have one too?"

The Lunch Lady turned to her and glared daggers as she viciously said, "No! Brats who mess with my cooking don't get sweets!"

She then flew at Danielle and grabbed her before slamming her to the wall as Danielle complained, "Come on! I haven't had anything good in days, and I didn't eat lunch!"

The Lunch Lady held Danielle tightly as she stared her in the face and said, "Tough luck! Children like you don't deserve good food!"

She threw Danielle down to the floor while Maddie watched and glared her goggles as she gritted her teeth.

The Lunch Lady floated over Danielle as she said, "I decide what kids eat! I decide what's good for them! You can't be trusted to choose yourself! You don't get to decide what to eat, I do it for you!"

Danielle looked up at the Lunch Lady with surprise as she said, "You're starting to sound like my mom. She says we need to eat healthier."

Maddie's expression softened and she showed regret, realizing that her youngest daughter was right and that she had been acting like the Lunch Lady lately.

Then the Lunch Lady landed and planted her foot on top of Danielle as she furiously yelled, "And I say you can starve!"

She prepared to attack Danielle but she was hit by a glob of goo that stuck her to the wall and they all looked to see Jack holding up the Fenton Foamer.

He took one last bite of a muffin before throwing it away as he seriously said, "Your cooking may be good, but no one messes with Jack Fenton's family!"

The Lunch Lady got free as the floated in the air and clinched her fists; Jack shot three more globs of goo, but not at her. Instead he hit the meat pile Danny was trapped in as well as the piles holding Tucker and Jazz as the goo hit the meat.

Danny smiled as he looked down and said, "Hey! The goo's cancelling out her power over the meat! I can phase out!"

He phased out of the pile of meat and then helped Jazz and Tucker out of their piles as he phased them out too. The Lunch Lady angrily flew at Danny but he punched her and sent her flying before Danielle flew at her and kicked her, knocking her into the wall.

She floated and yelled in rage, Danny looked at Tucker and seriously said, "I'll help my family, you free Sam and the others."

Tucker smiled as he held a fork and knife and said, "You got it!"

Danny and Danielle both flew at the Lunch Lady and tried to hit her but she created a giant spatula in her hands and swatted them away like flies. They fell to the floor but got back up while the Lunch Lady used her powers to bring the grill, stove, and microwave in the kitchen to life. They flew into the cafeteria and roared as they attacked Danny and his family; Danny blasted the stove with his an ecto-ray and destroyed it. Danielle kicked the microwave and smashed it to pieces while Jack shot a glob of goo at the grill, returning it to normal as it fell to the floor. While they continued to fight the Lunch Lady, Tucker was eating the meat trapping the Sam; because he hadn't eaten meat in days he was starving and ate very quickly.

He freed Sam and she gratefully said, "Wow! Thanks Tuck."

Tucker smiled as he happily said, "No problem Sam. Now if you'll excuse me, it's lunchtime."

He managed to free Mr. Lancer and a few more kids as he ate some of the meat that had them trapped. Once they were free they would help him free the others as Mr. Lancer ate some meat as well and helped the students. The Lunch Lady sent plates flying toward Danny, but he easily phased through them and then blasted her with a ball of ecto-energy. He missed and Jack came by his side and shot a few globs of goo at her, but she avoided them before flying at Danny and punching him.

While they fought, Jazz and Danielle helped Maddie as she gratefully said, "Thanks girls. Now let's teach this ghost some table manners!"

She grabbed her blaster rifle and fired a green ray at the Lunch Lady, blasting her into the wall behind her.

She angrily flew off the wall toward Maddie, but Danielle flew in her way and yelled, "Have a taste of this!"

She put her hands together and fired an ecto-ray at the Lunch Lady and blasted her, sending her crashing into a table.

She floated up and angrily said, "I slave over a hot stove and this is the thanks I get?! Taste my special of doom!"

She held her hands out and formed a bunch of monsters out of meat and sent them charging at them as they shrieked.

Danny narrowed his eyes as he said, "I say we send this dish back to the chef!"

His eyes glowed blue as he shot a blue ray from his hands and froze three meat monsters in a huge chunk of ice. Jack shot a few meat monsters with the Fenton Foamer, covering them in globs of green goo as they fell apart. Maddie blasted some meat monsters with a fierce look on her face as she glared with her goggles. Danielle kicked one meat monster, punched another one, and hit a third one with a ghost ray that destroyed it.

Jazz was surrounded by four meat monsters when Maddie yelled, "Jazz!"

She threw Jazz her green bo staff weapon, which Jazz activated and whirled around as she glared at the meat monsters. She swung the bo and destroyed them as she yelled in fury and broke them apart one by one, demonstrating her martial arts skills. She ran and joined Danny and Danielle as they fought three meat monsters together and easily destroyed them. One meat monster came at Sam, but Tucker jumped on it and ate some of its meat as it tried to escape before he finished it off.

Sam was a bit impressed as she said, "Whoa, you have one big appetite."

Tucker glared at her with an annoyed expression as he said, "That's because you've been depriving me of meat for the past few days."

She smiled sheepishly as she shrugged and they watched as Danny and his family fought all of the other meat monsters. Before long they were all defeated and there was meat all over the floor as the students watched with their backs against the walls.

The Lunch Lady looked down at all the meat before looking at Danny and his family, then she furiously yelled, "Prepare for my main course of doom!"

Her hands glowed green as all the meat flew around her in a vortex before gathering around, forming a huge meat monster. She glared down at everyone as she roared ferociously while all of the students screamed in terror.

Tucker nervously looked up at the meat monster as he dropped his utensils and said, "Suddenly, I'm not hungry anymore."

The Lunch Lady swung her right giant meaty arm and knocked Jack and Maddie down, but missed Jazz, Danny, and Danielle. She raised her fists over her head and tried to smash them, but they scattered and avoided them as she missed and hit the floor. Jazz ran around the giant meat monster while Danny and Danielle floated around her and tried to fight her. Danielle swiped her left leg horizontally through the air and sent a wave of ecto-energy out toward the Lunch Lady. She hit the giant meat monster and knocked it back, but she roared viciously as she grabbed Danielle in her hand. She threw Danielle away but Danny caught her and then fired two ghost rays from his hands, blasting holes in the meat monster's body. However the meat moved and the holes were filled in before she swung her fist down on top of Danny and slammed him into the floor.

Danielle had a ghostly tail as she flew at the meat monster's face and punched it several times before blasting an ecto ray at it. The meat monster's face healed before it swatted her away when Danny came with his eyes glowing blue as he shot an ice ray at her. However, she picked up a lunch table and held it up to shield herself, so Danny froze the table in ice instead of her. Then she swung the table at Danny and hit him, knocking him against the wall before he fell to the floor and struggled to get up when Danielle came to help him.

They both looked up at the giant meat monster as she furiously said, "Prepare to be crushed by the superior food group!"

Suddenly they heard Jazz yell, "Hey!"

She turned around to see Jazz glaring at her as she held up the Fenton Peeler and said, "Kitchen's closed."

She pushed the button and the Peeler suit formed over her body and the weapon came out of the right forearm. She aimed the weapon at the meat monster with a brave expression before firing a big powerful green ray at it.

The ray peeled off every piece of meat while the Lunch Lady yelled, "Noooooooo!"

All of the meat came off until only the Lunch Lady was left and Jazz stopped firing with a victorious smile on her face. The Lunch Lady glared at Jazz as she flew at her with her arms out, but Danielle floated in front of her and glared at her.

Danielle prepared to fight as she bravely said, "This meat is a little too chewie! It needs to be tenderized!"

She punched her in the face, kicked her in the stomach, roundhouse kicked in the face, then blasted her with some ecto-energy.

She sent the Lunch Lady falling to the floor, but she floated back up and glared daggers at Danielle, saying, "It's time I cook something a lot tougher! Like you!"

Danielle and Jazz smiled deviously as Danielle pointed behind the ghost and said, "That does sound hard, I hope you're thirsty."

The Lunch Lady curiously turned around Danny floating behind her as he held the Fenton Thermos in his hand.

She looked scared as Danny smiled triumphantly as he pulled the lid of the Thermos and said, "Good thing I brought my own lunch today."

He then sucked the Lunch Lady into the Thermos as she cried in defeat and then he put the lid over it and shut it tightly. Everyone in the cafeteria happily cheered while Jack and Maddie got up and joined their kids with proud smiles. Jazz deactivated the Fenton Peeler and smiled at Danielle, who floated next to her and they happily high-fived.

Mr. Lancer walked up to Danny and smiled as he said, "Well done Mr. Fenton. You saved the school from the evil spirit of an angry lunch lady."

Danny looked up at Mr. Lancer as he curiously said, "Thanks Mr. Lancer. Was she like that when you knew her?"

Mr. Lancer glanced around in thought as he honestly replied, "Ms. Beef was very nice, but she always did have a temper."

Later at Fenton Works

Sam and Tucker were with the rest of the Fentons in the living room as they waited for Danny to return.

Danny phased up into the living room before turning human as he said, "Well, the Lunch Lady's back in the Ghost Zone. Now we can eat in peace again."

Tucker showed some disappointment as he said, "Yeah. Goodbye meat."

Sam walked up to Tucker and sincerely said, "Tucker, I'm sorry. This whole thing made me realize that you were right."

Tucker was surprised as he said, "Really?"

Sam nodded as she respectfully said, "Yes. Just because I'm a vegetarian doesn't mean you have to be. And I guess there really is nothing wrong with eating meat anyway."

Tucker smiled proudly as he said, "It's about time you saw things my way."

Sam glanced around before looking at him while she said, "I'll always be an ultra-recyclo-vegetarian but I respect that you would rather eat meat. You should eat what you want to eat."

Maddie smiled at Sam and said, "That's very mature Sam and you're absolutely right. Danielle, Jack, I'm sorry for the way I've been acting these past few days."

Jack was surprised as he said, "You are?"

Maddie smiled at them both as she sincerely said, "Yes I am. That's why I've decided to end this family diet."

Danielle and Jack both got excited as they happily asked, "Really?!"

Maddie smiled at them as she happily said, "Yes, really. I still want you all to eat healthy but I see now that making you quit cold turkey wasn't the way to do it. From now on we'll work on eating healthier and enjoying junk in moderation."

Jack smiled as he happily said, "I like it!"

Danielle shut her eyes as she happily hugged Maddie and said, "Thanks mom."

Maddie happily hugged her back while Jazz proudly said, "You see mom. I told you that you could find a compromise."

Maddie smiled at Jazz with a proud expression while she kept hugging Danielle as she looked down at her lovingly.

Sam looked back at Tucker and solemnly said, "Tucker, if I promise not to give you a hard time about eating meat will you give fruits and veggies a try?"

Tucker thought for a moment and pointed his finger at Sam as he said, "Okay, but I get to decide when I want to try them."

Sam smiled as she held her hand out and said, "Deal."

She and Tucker shook hands as they smiled at each other while Danny watched proudly and said, "Glad you two finally made up."

Sam stopped shaking Tucker's hand as she smiled proudly at Danny and said, "Yeah, I learned my lesson: let people eat what they want to eat and only encourage moderation."

Maddie smiled as she stopped hugging Danielle and pointed at Sam while saying, "That's right Sam!"

Maddie went into the kitchen and came back out with a tray of cookies as she happily said, "Now who wants cookies?"

Danielle happily raised her hand as she said, "I do!"

Jack excitedly hurried to her as he said, "Hit me with one of those!"

Tucker raised his finger as he happily said, "I'll have one."

Danny smiled as he walked to his mother and said, "Me too."

Sam smiled as she walked toward Maddie and said, "Sounds good."

Jazz happily joined the others as she said, "Thanks mom."

Maddie smiled happily as everyone took one cookie off her tray and happily ate them with big smiles on their faces.

Jack smiled lovingly at Maddie as he said, "You know baby, that ghost may have made some good muffins, but you're still the best cook ever."

Maddie looked at Jack with a flattered smile before looking at everyone else as she jokingly said, "Aww, thanks Jack. Now everyone save room for dinner. I've got a salad ready and a meatloaf in the oven. And if you don't eat it you'll eat my cooking of doom!"

Everyone laughed at Maddie's impression of the Lunch Lady while Maddie smiled at their joy before the screen turned black.

The End.

Author's note: That's it for this episode. I thought it would be nice to have the Lunch Lady appear as the main villain again. I also feel like Sam did not learn her lesson from "Mystery Meat", that's why I had her try to change Tucker's diet. Also, I can picture Danielle having Jack's sweet tooth, she's not gluttonous like him but they like the same food, so sometimes we see them bonding as they eat together. I also thought it would be funny to have the Lunch Lady offer Jack some food and he actually answers correctly. We also got to see a little bit of Danielle at her school, where she seems to be pretty popular. Anyway, this seemed a little bit like something you'd watch during a health class or something. The moral of this story is you should eat what you want to eat but exercise moderation with unhealthy food. One more chapter then I'll go back to my Teen Titans story. Please review.
