Disclaimer: I don't own Danny Phantom or 6Teen. I do not own the original story this is based on.
Jen Masterson woke up at the usual hour for a teen, somewhere between ten and twelve. It was still summer vacation, and being from Canada meant that she had till the end of August to enjoy even more time with her friends and boyfriend. As she got up, the teen was sure to be quiet as not to wake up the others. While it was fun hanging out at the house, nobody liked the idea that there were not many restrooms to share. The morning hours were battlefields dyed with spilled shampoo, body wash, and other hygiene products in who uses the facilities first. Thus, first come, first served.
With the sound of running water emanating, it wasn't long before the others awoke with the beginning of the next set of battles. And it wasn't long till the red-grad heard their "battle cries."
"Outta the way!"
"Move it!"
"Hey! Some of us need to pee!"
"Mamma needs her makeup!"
It was never a pleasant sight, as only the lucky one to wake up first could enjoy getting ready for a few minutes at most. It wasn't long before Jen heard someone pounding at the door.
"Hey, Jen! Hurry it up in there!"
And after long, excruciating minutes, Caitlin's cousin would be out of her room. With her appearance came dead silence.
"Hey, cuz," the blonde girl singsonged in a nervous and pleading tone in an attempt to divert blame. "How are you?"
Caitlin's cousin, Catherine, stood in front of the gang, who sported sheepish grins. Though the nervousness didn't stop Jonesy from giving her a once over. She was taller than her cousin, which was a given since she was older by a few years, with chin-length blonde hair and eyes that matched Caitlin's. Honesty, the two could be mistaken for sisters. The host of the house appeared to be woken up from the noise, evident by her messy appearance.
"You know, when I said you guys could stay, I didn't say you could wake up the whole neighborhood."
"Sorry," the younger blonde apologized as she unwittingly took advantage of the disruption and walked into one of the bathrooms. "We'll be quiet."
As she locked the door with a click, the other registered that there was really only one bathroom left to get ready in. And it belonged to Catherine in her bedroom.
"Any chance you'd help a girl out and let me—"
"Go right ahead," the young adult made way for the only girl left. With a small, but still nervous, smile, Nikki grabbed what she had and went to prepare for the day.
"Hey! No fair!" Jonesy protested.
"Tough luck."
The boys would've yelled again, but when Jen was finished with her preparations, the click of a lock and creak of a door told them they had other matters to focus on. Mainly who got the bathroom next.
With the boys preoccupied, the redhead went downstairs for some much-needed breakfast. To the girl's surprise, she wasn't the first one at the table.
"Jude? What are you doing here? Did you shower already?"
"Me and showers are like pen pals. We write to each other, but it's a long wait."
While Jude wasn't really much of a cleanliness person, that didn't mean the teens weren't grossed out. It was probably better for their collective sanity that no one knew he hadn't showered for nine days.
"Eww," the redhead said as she stepped back.
"JUDE?! Yuck!" Nikki said as she walked in. She didn't need to hear the boy as the girl knew her friend hadn't washed from crinkling her nose in disgust.
"What?" Jude said, clueless like as he smelled his armpits as Caitlin stepped into the kitchen, her face went a little green at sight. "I smell fine."
"Gross!" Caitlin said in disgust as Jude remained oblivious.
"Note to self, don't touch Jude," Jen thought as she tried to think of something else.
"So, Jen...you came in late last time, and I didn't get a chance to ask, but how were things with Danny?" The blonde girl asked with interest.
Jen cheered up and smiled.
"It was awesome," Jen said as she began telling details. At least the ones she's willing to share.
"Really?" Caitlin asked with doe-eyes.
"I am serious. Even better, we have another date at noon today," Jen answered.
"So, where's the date this time?"
"Not telling, " Jen bluntly answered with a smile.
"What!?" Jonesy exclaimed as he entered the kitchen. Reaching into the cupboard above the counter, he grabbed himself a box of cereal, only to see that it was next to Jude. "Why not?"
"Because this time I want no unwelcome company. And I don't just mean how Caitlin and Nikki spied on us. There have been two attacks at the mall. So I planned for a nice date away from all this...whatever and just enjoy each other's company."
"Awww, " Caitlin cooed. "That's so romantic."
"Whatever, I had better things to do anyway, " Jonesy said after swallowing. The Latino boy was still partially grumpy about Danny's second date record.
"Like what?" the blonde bit asked.
"Like-"
"Do you really have a plan?"
Before anyone could answer, Wyatt had walked in swiftly as he paced himself to the coffee machine. All food would wait until he's had his beverage.
"Wyatt! My ma-"
"Don't talk to me until I have my hot brown morning potion! " the coffee addict had his hand setting up a border as he interrupted his Latino friend. Jonesy wanted to remark on that last part but said nothing. In fact, none of his friends knew how to answer that. To say he REALLY needed caffeine at the moment could have been an understatement. It wasn't until he down the drink, it wasn't until every drop of his second had been consumed till anyone could make a sound.
"Isn't that fresh, piping hot coffee?" the punk girl questioned her friend's safety.
"He made while you guys were fighting over the bathrooms."
"That's why I started the coffee machine beforehand," a smug grin was on the boy's face.
Wyatt chugged down his coffee and as if by magic, went from a mix of grumpy snapping turtle and morning zombie to friendly and polite in less than a minute.
"Ah, I needed that," the coffee addict said before turning to his friends. "So, what did I miss?"
"Nothing much, except that I wouldn't be so close to Jude," Jen said as she pointed to the teen. Wyatt looked surprised and asked why. Since he noticed his friend was two feet away from him.
"Nothing, if you don't mind hanging out with a guy who hasn't showered since we got to Amity Park," Nikki snarked.
"GROSS!" Wyatt shouted as he backed away.
"What's the big deal?" Jude asked, now a bit confused.
The dating teens met at the park. After two straight days of attacks, along with a day apart for a breather, the place seemed like the perfect spot. Also, the area was mostly empty, given that Mayor Masters gave a public speech about helping the mall by spending. The ghost boy wondered how the heck someone like him could be so charismatic into urging people to spend.
The view from the park was breath-taking as Danny and Jen laid down on the grass. The two took in everything. The area was perfect, as there were very few people there today.
"Now this is nice," The redhead said as she curled up to the ghost boy. "No random supernatural events, and it's just you and me. Nothing can go wrong."
However, from afar, the lens of binoculars gave off a slight reflection of the sun. While the angle allowed the couple to miss the light, it only served to allow their follower to continue this abnormal business with malicious intent.
"That's what you think, little girl."
"So, know any places we can score chicks?" Jonesy asked the techno-geek with wiggling eyebrows.
"Are girls the only thing you think about?" Nikki snarked. After the boy flirted with Desiree and almost said a comment about Mrs. Fenton, the girl's cup of patience had runneth over.
"I think about work, too," Jonesy replied. "After all, what good is a date with a hot girl if you don't have the cash?"
"then you also need to think about how to keep a job for more than a day," Wyatt commented.
"He gets fired on the first day?" Tucker was mildly concerned but mainly entertained at the idea.
"Hey, I can keep a job!"
"But, we've never seen you go past the second day," Caitlin off-handedly remarked as she wondered what stores were nearby. To her credit, the girl loved to shop.
Tucker snickered a bit and but stopped when Jonesy glared at him.
"At least I had a job once! What do you do?" Jonesy retorted.
Fight ghosts with my best pal. Tuck thought, but he couldn't say that. Thankfully, he didn't have to answer as Nikki spoke up.
"Leave him alone, Jonesy," Nikki said. "He's fourteen."
"And therefore not old enough to get a job," Wyatt finished with a grin as he took a sip of his third coffee.
"How much coffee does he normally take?" Tucker asked Catilin, who shrugged.
"Depends. Five is his minimum on a GOOD day," Caitlyn commented.
Tucker looked to his new coffee-loving friend in amazement. Nobody in Amity Park ever needs that coffee. Not even the mayor, but this was a small town. Except for the ghosts, there wasn't much reason to drink so much.
So, the teen let it be. It wasn't any of his business anyway. Besides, they have more pressing matters to attend to.
Or so he thought, as Caitlin was a little jumpy.
"Ooooh! I really want to know what Danny and Jen are doing,"
She squealed.
"Seriously?" Tucker deadpanned. He was starting to wonder why this girl Seemed familiar at first. He knew he'd remember a girl that squees.
"Yeah, Caitlin here believes in true love," Nikki commented as her friend rolled their eyes. Well, Jude smirked.
"It was a wonder that nobody chose her in the end," the punk girl's voice overflowed with sarcasm.
"Haha. Very funny," Caitlin said in a huff. "Besides, I may not have found the one—"
Now that sounds familiar. Tucker thought.
"—but Jen found someone, Danny. What if he turns out to be it?" The blonde girl turned to Tucker. "you sure Danny didn't say anything to you?"
"You guys really want an idea where Danny and Jen went?" Tucker asked with a groan. He knew how and also knew the two didn't want the company, but the young teen did not want to let these guys down.
His social circle had never been this big, and while it was new, the boy had come to like these guys. Though he still had this nagging sensation, he met the blonde girl before.
Plus, if the boy was right, this would do more help than harm.
"You know where they went?" Caitlin grabbed the boy by the shoulders and shook him. "How?"
"Caitlin, Tucker doesn't know where they are. Not unless he installed a tracking device on one of them," Wyatt took a sip from his coffee before he stopped. "You didn't install a chip on Danny, did you?"
"No!" the tech-loving geek, free from the blonde girl's grip, courtesy of Nikki, defended. Though he soon sported a different look. "But I do have an idea how we can track them. Just...be prepared."
The gang was a little shocked at his words and more so when the boy pulled out his PDA. With a sad face and a sigh, TuckerTuckerwith the stylus before ringing can be heard. After a few seconds, a voice can be heard.
"Tucker? I thought you were hanging out with Jen's friends? What's up?" Sam's voice could be heard on speaker.
"Hey Sam, where are you?" Tucker asked with a displeased look, with some mental cringing. But there was also hope asking for him to be wrong.
"At the park. Did something happen?"
"Wait a minute, since when does a goth go to the park on a sunny day?" Nikki thought out loud. It dawned on her and the rest of what their new friend was implying.
"Is that...Nikki!? Tucker, what's going on?" suspicion was evident in the goth girl's tone.
"Please tell me she's not stalking them," Nikki demanded as Caitlin gasped. The boys were just as surprised.
Except for Tucker, who had been desensitized to this behavior, the teens were rightly furious. While they would spy on the love birds, they had standards and wouldn't stalk them at every chance. They had understood that the two wanted some time together, alone. They had a feeling the goth girl's intentions were not for fun. Either way, it was not healthy.
"What I do in my spare time is none of your business!"
It didn't take a genius to know what Sam admitted. Didn't make anything better, though.
"Well, guess what!?" Nikki snatched the PDA. "We're all going over there to make sure you don't mess things up!"
Sam Manson was furious. She not only had to stay hidden from Danny and Jen but the six teens that are coming over to stop her.
Wait...would Tucker even try? The girl legitimately asked herself. It wasn't that she couldn't take him, but rather the situation itself was too new to have a grasp on. Despite her jealous behavior, the two were still friends.
Before she could ponder any more, the sound of the couple laughing snapped her back to Earth as she witnessed the redhead giving the ghost boy a kiss on the cheek. That made the black-haired girl fume, but her subsequential studying, as she puts it, made her lose track of time and the fact Tucker and the teens were on their way.
It was only when she heard a "Split up," did the girl remembered anything.
Luckily for her, she chose to hide in a bush, where no one would look. Using her binoculars, the girl was temporarily content where she was, especially since it was out of the sun. The sneaky goth snickered a bit as she overheard the teens' conversation. Well, the bits she could make out.
"How hard is it to find a goth in the park? She's wearing all black, she should stick out like...like...her!" Jonesy complained as he sat down on a bench nearby.
"Maybe she...like...I dunno...wore a disguise or something so no one could see her," Jude suggested.
That...probably would have been a smart idea. Sam thought, wondering why she didn't think of that.
"Ugh. Well, that makes it easier," Nikki said sarcastically before walking away.
"Where are you going?" Caitlyn asked.
"To find that scrawny goth before she ruins Jen's date," Nikki said.
Scrawny?! Sam thought, insulted.
"Good idea. We should split up," Wyatt suggested. "Nikki and Caitlyn will search the north side of the park, and Jonesy and I will search the south side."
"What about us, bro?" Jude asked.
"Jude, you and Tucker stay here in the middle. As soon as either of us finds Sam, call the others."
"Sounds like a plan," Tucker said.
"I'm in. Come on," Nikki said as she and Caitlyn went to search.
Jonesy and Wyatt soon left too, leaving Tucker alone with Jude.
The tech geek felt disappointment as he thought about his friend's latest stunt.
Sam, what am I gonna do with you? Tucker thought.
However, the techno-geek then noticed that Jude had a pretty sunken face.
That is weird, since most of the time, he is pretty mellow.
"You OK?" Tucker asked his new laid back friend.
Jude was depressed, a rarity for the mellow boy.
"I just thought that when your friend blew us off, she wasn't ready to chill yet. Now we're here, and it turns out the bra just doesn't like us. It's really sad, bro."
Sam could feel a tear fall from her face. Fueled jealousy, she didn't think about the teens or if they would care, much less cry about not hanging out. The girl felt terrible and, while she still felt the green-eyed monster whispering to her, began to honestly question her behavior. But before the goth could take any action, her phone began to ring. Very loudly.
She had forgotten to silence it and panicked a bit when she heard Tucker and Jude.
"Why didn't I think of this sooner? I can set off Sam's phone by calling her while tracking the signal and the noise," Tucker exclaimed as he looked to his PDA with the laid back teen looking teen looming over his shoulder. To their surprise, they saw the signal coming nearby and heard the ring tone. Looking in the direction of the bush, they saw their gothic target stand out of the bushes with a sheepish grin.
I really should have made sure my phone was on silent. The girl thought grimly.
It didn't take long before Jude called the others who hurried to their location as fast as they could. Boy, was Sam in for it.
From up above, a sinister figure was surveying the scene and noticed the fast pace everything was happening at. Save for the lovebirds, who managed to ignore their surrounding.
"Well, this is boring. Time to liven things up if I want to see how the whelp's girlfriend handles us."
With a push of a button, a large cage was summoned with various ghosts that had caught the man's interests.
"Hmmm...I gonna need the right bait. Too scaly, too frightening, you, I plan on feasting on for dinner. Yes!" Reaching into the cage, a particular obnoxious ghost was pulled from the confines.
"I AM THE BOX GHOST! And seriously, Skulker, this is getting old!"
"No, it's not," the ghost hunter retorted.
"Yes, it is! You've literally used me as bait for most of your trap."
"Give me a list."
"Give me one time you hadn't used me as bait."
While the Box Ghost was annoying, he had a point. Skulker had recalled the numerous times the relentless nuisance was better as bait, and to his dismay, had to concur.
Though in doing so, threw the pesky ghost back into the cage out of pride.
"Lunchtime!"
As the creatures began to bite at the Box Ghost, Skulker was surprised to see someone else in the park, one he was sure wouldn't be here, as he went back to spying.
To say everyone was angry at Sam was an understatement. The boys gave stern, soul-piercing glares, while the girls berated the goth girl with a tone that made a certain perky mother seem nice. The goth dreaded the idea that someone made her mom seem nice to her. She'd speak up, but the two scared her, and she fights ghosts with Danny.
Tucker stood next to the group. He spoke not a word but had his glasses off while he shook his head with pinched eyes. And that hurt worse than the teens.
It would have continued, but the sound of a familiar voice for the goth girl and techno-geek broke their train of thought.
"Hello, Ms. Manson. Mr. Foley," said a friendly tone.
Sam and Tucker turned in shock to see a not-friendly face walking. Any chewing out of the goth girl was now ignored as the two younger teens stared at the sharply dressed gentleman walking past them and over to the couple, who were getting up.
"Guys, I know Sam's in trouble, but we got to follow him," the techno-geek said as he walked away with the goth girl. While the five teens were confused, they followed out of concern.
Though much confused, the teens noticed the high alert look on their faces and decided to shadow them.
"I'm hungry, how bout you?" Jen asked as she placed a hand on her stomach.
"Sure, I could go for anything right now."
"How about some frozen yogurt?" Jen suggested.
"Sounds good," Danny replied. He wasn't ready to show her the Nasty Burger yet, plus it was one of the places ghosts like to haunt—especially the Lunch Lady.
"Good, I know just the place," Jen said.
The couple walked out of the park unaware of the scattered group following them.
The two walked into the sweet shop where the various scents of fudge, ice cream, candy, and chocolate overwhelmed their senses for a few seconds, but it felt like hours to the teens.
"Welcome to Fudge It All! How may I take your order?" the cashier said as the couple walked through. After a moment he studied Danny. "Hey, aren't you Jack Fenton's boy?"
Danny nodded cautiously as he braved himself, but the clerk just gave him a fuller grin.
"Well then have a discount on me. Courtesy of our continued patronage with your father," the man gave with a smile and a swinging arm.
"Wow, thanks! Never thought my dad's love of fudge would come in handy," Danny said as he and Jen walked to the display. On top there we're some menus that had specialty dishes on them.
"I take it your dad doesn't just hunt ghosts," Jen giggled.
"Apparently," Danny said as he studied the place. "I always thought he only went out to find ghosts."
The two teens laughed as they decided what flavors they wanted. They didn't even register the ring of the bell as the door swung open, and the clerk welcomed another customer. At least Danny didn't till he heard the man.
"Welcome to Fudge-it-all! How may I—Mayor Masters! How good of you to join us! I didn't know you liked fudge!"
The ghost boy jerked up as he threw heard the mayor say...
"Well, I was just taking a little break from my mayoral duties and thought, this place looks good. And when was the last time I could say I had some delicious fudge?"
"What'll ya have?"
"Let's see," Vlad said as he placed his attention on the billboard menu. "oh there many choices but I'll think I'll have the Fudge-It-All."
"Why hello there, Daniel," Vlad said in his charismatic, faux friendly tone. "I didn't see you there, little badger. How are you?"
Danny knew what the man actually meant to say. The two crossed paths with enough clashes to understand each other. Vlad wanted to know about Jen, who didn't know about her boyfriend's supernatural activities, especially about the mayor.
"Wait, you know the mayor?" Jen asked with a nervous smile.
"Why his parents and I went to college together," the older man explained before he wrung his arm around the ghost boy's neck. "We've been friends for a while now. Isn't that right, little badger?"
Danny pulled away from the man's grip and backed up in front of his girlfriend in a protective manner. To the confusion of Jen, she didn't understand how Vlad had said friends, but the boy and man were glaring at each other. Before she could ask anything, Sam, Tucker, and the rest of the teens had walked into the store.
Everyone stopped as the clerk said his greeting. The man was happy for the extra customers. He placed Master's order on the counter as he gestured to the menu.
"Well now, it seems you made more than a girlfriend," the mayor said as he took a bite of his order. "I'd introduce myself, but would you look at the time. I have to get back to work. Amity Park won't work without me," the man floated as he walked to the door, giving a curt bow to the teens nearby. "It was so good to see you again. We should do it again...real soon."
Vlad gave a wicked smirk as he left the confused six teens and Danny's surly group.
"What the heck was that all about?" Jonesy asked after a moment of silence.
"Dudes, you guys OK?" Jude asked his new friends.
Danny snapped out of his sour disposition as Jen placed her hand on him. She was wearing a concerned face.
Danny, Jen, and the other placed an order, except for Nikki, who wasn't a chocolate fan, and seated themselves. The ghost boy was on, what his friends would, his excess pieces of fudge.
"Uh...Danny, you OK?" Wyatt asked with his mug fresh hot choco-fudge coffee. It was surprisingly tasty, perhaps more so than the guy's regular coffee, but the caffeine lover would never admit to that.
The fudge devouring boy stopped and now noticed the concerned faces. Though right now, he was the spitting image of his father with how he was eating.
"Sorry," the ghost boy wiped his face. "It's just that me and Vlad aren't really friends."
"What then why was the dude acting so friendly?" Jude asked. He seemed abit stressed. He almost didn't eat any part of his mega-fudge sundae. "Dude seemed alright to me."
"Jude, the guy is just..." Nikki was at a loss for words. "I don't know he's just creepy. Like he's hiding something."
"But you can say that about any politician, "Caitlin added as she gouged on her Death by Chocolate Cake. Sam took a moment to wonder how a petite girl could engorge herself with so much chocolate. It didn't seem physically possible.
"Good...point?" the punk agreed as she noticed the goth girl hasn't said a word. "You alright?"
Sam felt her spine dance; all eyes were on her. She was avoiding attention because she had to get caught. The girl blamed herself for having the phone on silent, but soon there would be questions. And Danny wouldn't be "understanding" as to why she was spying. This already applied to the other teens.
"It's just...Vlad," Manson lied.
"Yeah, Vlad's not good in our book," Danny added, accepting the lie. "However, my dad still thinks they're best friends. Even after twenty years of not speaking"
"Twenty years!?" Jonesy said after spitting his drink onto the table. He would have hit the other's food had they not moved it off.
"Why did he wait for twenty to talk to your dad?" Wyatt asked. He was so curious the African-Canadian teen didn't take a sip of his drink.
"College reunion. Vlad held it at his place in Wisconsin to gloat about his success," Danny answered, taking a bite of his fudge.
"Twenty years," Jen repeated. "Wow..."
"What exactly happened between them?" Caitlyn asked.
Danny sighed as he rubbed his eyes. "Long story short, there was an accident with one of their projects, a mini ghost portal."
The teens gave the boy funny looks.
"He was into ghosts too," the ghost boy added. "Anyway, he got infected with something called ecto-acne and had to go to the hospital—"
"Did he get superpowers?" Jude asked as Caitlin doubled check her face with her compact at the word 'acne.'
Danny, Sam, and Tucker blinked.
"I'm jay saying it sounds like something out of a comic book. The dude looks like a classic supervillain."
While the ghost fighters were surprised by the laid-back teen's accurate, and astounding, accusation, the rest of the gang laughed it off. Though that didn't mean suspicions were raised about the blonde boy.
"Jude, you've been reading way too many comics," Jen commented.
Jude sat in his seat, genuinely confused. He looked at Danny but received a shrug.
"So Danny, you were saying," Jen said as they all calmed down.
"Wha—sorry. Anyway, he kinda had a crush on my mom and was happy when she married my dad."
"I totally understand that," Jonesy admitted, earning him a smack from the others. "What!? I'm not gonna lie. She's—" the boy didn't finish that sentence as he glanced at The ghost boy, who was giving hiM a dead look. "You know what, I blame hormones."
Nikki and the others rolled their eyes, used to this from him.
The teens went back to enjoying themselves until Danny's ghost sense went off.
"Uh...I have to go to the bathroom," the boy said as he got up.
"But you just ate," Jude pointed out.
"It's breakfast," Danny lies as he went to the men's room quickly.
Sam and Tucker exchanged knowing glances at what was really happening.
"Is he OK?" Jen asked concerningly. "He seemed...well..."
"It's complicated when you have a family of ghost hunters," Tucker covered as Nikki and Wyatt eyed him funny. "You don't wannaTuckeron't think they have time to know," came the deep voice of Skulker from behind.
At his presence, the teens backed away, except for one mellow teen.
"What sup ghost dude," Jude casually greeted the ghost. "Here for the fudge?"
Now Caitlin smacked him upside the head while Sam and Tucker wondered what he was on. It was incredibly rare to see someone act so calm being confronted by an obviously hostile ghost.
"Ow..."
"No, just getting bait," the hunter answered with glee as a ghost wolf made itself known, snarling at the teens.
The teens ducked behind the table as Wyatt put the food in front of them.
"Stand back! This is chocolate! You know what this does to dogs!" Wyatt shouted.
"Uhhh...Wyatt," Jonesy tapped the African boy's shoulder. "I don't think that's a problem for wolfy there."
"Oh crap," the teen realized as the predatory ghost beast closed in.
Within seconds later, Danny Phantom flew in and tackled the beast away into the commanding hunter, knocking him down.
"Good thing I'm a problem," Danny Phantom quipped as he mourned the wolf ghost with thermos in hand. "Bad dog! Time to send you back to training school!"
Placing the device on its head, the ghostly hero sucked in the predator with ease as he turned to a moping Skulker.
"Now that's not fair," the hunter said, getting up as he readies his guns.
Danny retaliated with icicles to pierce the ghost hunter.
"Since when do YOU play fair?!" Danny shouted as he sent blasts at him.
Meanwhile, Jen and her friends tried to stay out of the war zone. All but one that is.
"Jen, where are you going?" Caitlin asked.
"I have to see if Danny's safe. He doesn't know about the attack," the redhead replied as the ghost boy thrashed Skulker into a table.
"I'm pretty sure he can tell from the noise," Nikki remarked.
BOOM! Went a table as one of the hunter's rockets missed.
"Survey says, he definitely can," Sam deadpanned at the irony.
Jen is still worried. She just had to see if he is OK. Using her athletic skills, the girl ran, dodging the misfires while the two ghosts kept fighting.
"I must admit," Skulker gloated. "I'm finding you a much more enjoyable hunt. Maybe I should do this more often."
Before Danny could capture the hunter, his foe threw a table at the teens. The ghost boy flew over and managed to keep it from crashing on them, but his enemy escaped.
"Great," Danny groaned.
However, before he could curse about it, he heard his name being called.
"Danny!"
Turning around, the ghost boy heard Jen, who was nearing the bathroom, now at greater speed since there was no fighting.
"Oh man, Jen," Danny remembered as he flew away, to the protest of Jude who wanted a photo.
"Danny!" Jen exclaimed.
The ghost boy phased into the ground as he navigated himself back to the bathroom stall, where he transformed back and peeked out the door.
"I take it it's safe to come out, right?" The boy asked with a sarcastic chuckle.
"Danny!" Jen yelled as she hugged him tightly. It took a moment for the boy to calm down from the adrenaline, something the girl mistook for something else. She blushed and let go of him. "There was another ghost attack!"
"I kinda figured there was something from the noise," Danny lied as he took a good look at the carnage and damage.
"Told ya," Nikki snarked.
"Come on, let's get going before my dad arrives. Knowing him, he'll be here in a few seconds, and I do NOT want to introduce him yet," Danny explained as he gestured the gang to follow him out the building.
"So much for a normal date," Jen groaned as she exited. "but at least we were together for a moment."
From outside, Skulker was observing from afar.
"Hmm...interesting," he said as he zoomed in on Jen. "I'll need more time. Luckily, I can take as much as I want."
The hunter maniacally grinned to himself. This was never the end, but only the beginning.
Wow, it's been while see we saw these two love birds, well this universe anyway. Looks like the gang has met Vlad, with Jude making a rather spot-on assumption.
Special Thanks to Flower Princess11 for all her help!

Reviews:
61394: Syndrome was on some kind of energy rush, and it got to his head, thinking he was a super. Or at least, that's how I imagine it.
qazse: Yep. :3
Jebest4781: Thanks!
Luiz4200: Can't say for sure. Amity Park has ghosts attacks regularly, and it has been a while since ghosts became known. So they may pass it off. Then again, it is a small town.
nightmaster000: Thanks! Though things will turn out differently since Jen's friends are around. So Sam should see things from another perspective with more people to interact with, especially ones she can't threaten with violence. And yes, Deadpool will still make his appearances.
Jay The Average Fanboy: Dani meeting the teens before they leave, not very likely as she's off traveling, and Vlad is still in Amity. Also, Danny's graduation was an exciting story. I liked it.
DJ Rodriguez: Thanks!
KorevainsoLightshire: It's okay. I still enjoyed it.
Dreams Come True 996: Thanks! Things will be getting more interesting as time goes on. As for your question, I'd have to say a little of columns A B. Sam has troubles expressing her feeling as could come off...a little stern, but fans had a point when it seemed she had an attitude where her jealousy stemmed from any girl interested in Danny like only she could make him happy.
CMR Rosa: Thanks!
Starlord Masters: Thanks!
