Hey, guys! Welcome to the new chapter of Danny and Dawn Phantom: Season 1...anyway, I don't own anything except for my OC'S.
NOW LET'S GET ON WITH THE STORY!
At the docks, late at night, we zoom into a large and abandoned warehouse, where the sounds of muffled fighting could be heard as a blue-skinned ghost phased through a wall and crashed against a pile of boxes as Danny and Dawn Phantom phased through the wall and went tangible as they glared at the ghost. The ghost is a 5'4-feet-tall, 50-year-old Man with gray eyes, short black hair, thin black eyebrows, a small nose, freckles on his cheeks, a double fat chin, Blue Skin, a short somewhat round build, and his outfit consisted of grey overalls with a light gray shirt underneath, a gray hat, light gray gloves, and dark gray shoes. His name is the Box Ghost, the most annoying ghost in existence.
"Beware!" Box Ghost shouted loudly while recovering from the crash as he flew into the air and turned tangible. "I am the Box Ghost! I have power over all containers, cardboard, and square." He yelled while gesturing to the boxes scattered across the room as the Phantom Twins gave him deadpanned looks and crossed their arms.
"Okay, Boxy, it's been a long night, so how about you give up, and we won't hurt you too much," Dawn says with crossed arms as Danny nodded.
"Yeah, and besides, we have tests to study for, so can we get this over with already?" Danny asked, annoyed as the Box Ghost raised an eyebrow.
"Study?" Box Ghost asked in disbelief as his eyes and hands glowed green, and he began levitating a few boxes into the air. "There will be no time to study when you find yourself crushed beneath the forgotten possessions of..." He says before trailing off as Box Ghost read the shipping label of a nearby box. "...Elliot Kravitz of Arlington Heights, Illinois!" Box Ghost says before turning to the twins as he grins sinisterly and threw out his hand as he flings the pile of boxes over at the Halfas at high speeds. The Phantom Twins barely blinked as Danny turns intangible and lets the boxes fly through him while Dawn simply caught the boxes with her own telekinesis as they floated around her.
"...Really?" Dawn asked with an unimpressed look as the Box Ghost shrugs sheepishly. Rolling her eyes, Dawn lazily threw out her hands as she flings the boxes back at Box Ghost, who was too slow to react as he was blindsided by a couple of boxes and crashed down on the floor as he moans in pain.
"We don't have time for this! Hey, Tucker, let's go!" Danny shouted as Sam, Lucas, and Tucker kicked open the door and jumped into the room as Sam carried a biology book, Tucker held the Fenton Thermos, and Lucas had the Fenton Ghost Fisher in his hands.
"Hi-ya!" Lucas yelled while throwing out the fishing line as he caught Box Ghost in his tracks.
"Hey!" Box Ghost shouted in annoyance as he struggled to free himself.
"Tucker! Do it now!" Sam screamed to Tucker, who was twirling the Fenton Thermos in his finger like a basketball as he smirked and activated the device.
"Goodnight, everybody!" Tucker shouted as a blue beam shot out of the thermos, and Box Ghost's eyes widen in fear as he tries to fly away, but Lucas won't let him as the twins grabbed the ghost and threw him into the beam as Box Ghost screams and gets sucked into the thermos. "Perimeter secure," Tucker says smugly while turning off the Fenton Thermos as Sam raised an eyebrow at him.
"Perimeter secure? What are you, a Navy Seal?"
"Seals: aquatic mammals that bark. They're canines, right?" Danny asked as he landed next to Tucker while Dawn floated above her friends.
"Wrong. That's 14 to 21 for Danny." Sam says while checking the textbook as she looked up at Dawn. "What about you, Dawn?" She asked as Dawn hummed and looked up at the sky thoughtfully.
"Seals are a widely distributed and diverse clade of carnivorous, fin-footed, semi-aquatic marine animals who mostly live around the colder waters of Northern and Southern Hemispheres. They spend most of their lives underwater but come ashore to mate, give birth, molt, or escape from predators, such as sharks and killer whales." Dawn says with a small smile on her face as Sam nodded.
"That's correct. That's 21 to 21 for Dawn." Sam says as Tucker smirked.
"I'm no teacher, but I'm guessing that's a 'D' for Danny and an 'A' for Dawn," Tucker says while spinning the Fenton Thermos on the tip of his finger again as Danny groans.
"Come on, you guys! If we're going to be a team, you guys have to be a little more focused." Danny says while flying up in between his friends as he turned to Sam. "You're supposed to be helping us study for the test tomorrow." He says before turning to Tucker and Lucas. "And, you two supposed to be helping us catch these ghosts, so we have time to study!" Danny yelled while throwing out his hands exasperatedly as Lucas raised an eyebrow at him and crossed his arms.
"Hey, don't look at me. I'm pulling my weight here while Tucker over here is goofing off," Lucas says while pointing at Tucker, who was still spinning the thermos, as Lucas frowns at him disapprovingly. "Hey, Tuck, can you stop doing that. You're going to break the thermos." Lucas says as Tucker scoffed.
"Stop worrying, bro, nothing bad is going to happen," Tucker says calmly just as the thermos falls off of his finger as it landed on the ground, and the cap bursts off, releasing all of the 120 ghosts that the team caught as they laughed maniacally and phased out of the warehouse as they flew to freedom.
"Ha, ha! I am the Box Ghost! You cannot hold me within the confines of a cylindrical container!" Box Ghost mocked before phasing through the wall.
"That's weird." Tucker says while pulling out his PDA as the screen read, 'FINISH CATCHING GHOSTS 9:00 PM'. "According to my schedule, we should be done catching ghosts by now," Tucker says, earning a glare from the team as he smiled at them weakly.
"Next time, I handle the thermos?" Lucas asked Dawn with a deadpan tone as she nodded.
"Next time, you'll handle the thermos," Dawn says while watching Danny and Sam berating Tucker for letting the ghosts break free.
"Hmmm...half-humans, half ghosts? Interesting..." A ghost says while spying on the team, but more specifically, the ghostly twins with a pair of high-tech binoculars as he smirked maliciously. The ghost wears a white, weaponized-robotic battle suit with electric green eyes, electric green flaming hair/goatee, and jagged teeth. He also wears a blank tank top with dark gray shoulder pads, dark gray gantlets, a gray utility belt that has a blue 'S' on the buckle, black pants, and gray metallic combats boots. His name is Skulker, the greatest ghost hunter in the Ghost Zone. "Two of a kind, they'll make fine additions to my collection," Skulker says while glancing at the cage full of screaming ghosts behind him as he smirked before frowning as he spotted Box Ghost flying towards the cage.
"Ha, ha!" Box Ghost exclaimed as he was about to touch the box, but stopped as a small knife flew past his head and embedded it on the wall as he yelped in surprise and turned to an angry Skulker.
"Touch the box, and your pelt will adorn my fireplace." Skulker threatens as Box Ghost trembled in fear and flew away as Skulker turned back to the teens and continued spying on them as he grinned sinisterly.

(They're Phantoms!)
(Danny and Dawn Phantom, Phantom, Phantom, Phantom!)
Several sequences of scenes flashed in front of the readers as the first scene shows multiple images of a stoic Danny and Dawn making various fighting poses while transformed into their Ghost Forms as we then see Danny and Dawn Phantom floating around in a dark-lit area as a flash of bright light appeared and we could briefly see the Twins' glaring ghostly faces as the next scene showed a Ghost running away by the Phantom Twins by phasing through the walls of an abandoned warehouse as Danny and Dawn appeared as the White-Haired Male Halfa phase through the wall to chase after the Ghost while the White-Haired Female Halfa simply closed her eyes and used her Spectral Body Manipulation to transform her ghostly body into blue smoke as she dissipated from sight, and the final scene showed the Phantom Twins floating in front of the Moon with their capes blowing in the wind as the camera slowly zooms into their glowing green/blue eyes.
Young, Danny, and Dawn Fenton were just 15,
When their parents build a very strange machine!
It was designed to view a world unseen!
(They're going to catch 'em all 'cause they're Danny and Dawn Phantom!)
Walking down into their Parents' Lab, the Fenton Twins were surprised to see them working in what seemed to be a gateway to someplace unseen as an eager Jack and Maddie turned to them and stopped what they were doing to quickly explain to their Kids that what they were constructing is a Portal to an Alternative Dimension called the Ghost Zone, the Land of the Ghosts as Dawn looks excited by the idea while Danny looks understandably scared and nervous about it as a smirking Jack reaches down to grab onto the plug and, with a mighty 'Bonzai', the Ghost Hunter plugs the machine as he and Maddie stared at the Ghost Portal hopefully...only for nothing to happen as only a few sparks rang out from the machine.
When it didn't quite work, their folks, they just quit,
But then the twins took a look inside it!
There was a great big flash everything just changed,
Their molecules got all rearranged!
(Phantom, Phantom, Phantom!)
Disappointed by their latest failure, Jack and Maddie slouched their shoulders in somberness as they turned around to walk away, and, feeling bad for their Parents, the Fenton Twins decided to try and cheer up their Mom and Dad by putting on their tailor-made custom white/black jumpsuits as they bravely yet recklessly ventured into the Ghost Portal. Looking around warily, a fearful Dawn held her Twin Brother's hand as they walked deeper and deeper into the portal, trying to find something that they can use to fix the portal, only to fail as the defeated Fenton Twins turned around to leave, but Dawn ended up accidentally tripping against a loose wire and ended up crashing down into the ground as a worried Danny leans his hand against the wall and reaches his other hand down to grab onto Twin Sister by her armpits as he lifted her up from the floor.
Unfortunately for Danny, however, he accidentally laid his hand against the 'On' Button located INSIDE of the Ghost Portal, causing it to immediately light up green as, before the Fenton Twins could react, the duo were IMMEDIATELY with electricity in the form of green ectoplasm as they collided against their bodies, causing Danny and Dawn to scream bloody murder as they felt their bodies being covered with ectoplasmic electricity, causing their Human DNA to be fused with Ectoplasm as, if that wasn't bad enough, the sheer power of the Ghost Portal actually fatally killed the Poor Teenagers, but thankfully, they were able to survive the horrific onslaught thanks to their Human DNA being able compatible with Ghost DNA as, instead of fully dying, they only half-died and became the world's third and fourth Human/Ghost Hybrids known as Halfas!
When they first woke up, they realized,
They had snow-white hairs and glowin' green/blue eyes!
After waking up from their unconscious state, a groaning Danny and Dawn sit up from the ground as they rubbed their heads in pain and slowly turned to each other as they were absolutely shocked by their new Ghostly Forms like their snow-white hairs, tan skin, faint white aura, and inverted colored jumpsuits as the Fenton Twins screamed in fear with their eyes flashing green/blue as Danny and Dawn panted heavily in fear and confusion.
They can walk through walls, disappear, and fly, thanks to their newly Halfa Genes!
Yeah, they're much more unique than any other teens!
Grabbing onto Sam's hands, the newly-named Danny Phantom turned them intangible and phase them through a wall as both of them looked surprised yet excited by this and turned to share a smile but then blushed lightly as Danny and Sam realized that they were still holding hands as they giggled sheepishly. With the newly-named Dawn Phantom, we see her holding onto Lucas's hand as they were flying through the air while invisible as they turned to smile at each other warmly with blushes on their faces as the duo giggled while an annoyed Tucker could be seen standing around, feeling left out as he crossed his arms with a pout.
A grinning Dash could be seen slamming a grunting Danny into the lockers while hoisting him up into the air by the front of his shirt as he lifted up his fist, preparing to punch him as Dawn walked by and spotted this as she was about to try and help, only for Paulina to suddenly appear in her cheerleading outfit as she started mocking the girl relentlessly for her clothes and whatnot. With their eyes flashing green/blue, the Fenton Twins turned to share a discrete nod as Danny created an invisible clone that phased out from his chest and proceeds to Overshadow Dash, causing him to freeze up and suddenly lets go of Danny as he dusted off his clothes before proceeding to punch himself in the face, giving him a black eye as Danny/Dash then gave himself a wedgie just as a smirking Danny opened the locker as Danny/Dash walked inside and the Ghostly Boy slammed the locker shut as his Clone stopped possessing Dash's body and phased out of the locker as he shared a high five with Danny.
With Dawn, we see her placing her hands behind her back as it glowed blue, and the Ghostly Teen used her telekinesis to latch onto a set of paint placed conveniently beside her as they floated over to drop a heavy dose of blue/green paint down at Paulina, causing her to yelp in surprise as a discrete Dawn then reached over to place her hand on Paulina's back, swiftly turning her clothes intangible as they slide off her body, revealing her naked form to everyone as the students around her laughed at an embarrassed Paulina, who covered herself with a blush as she shrieked and turned around to run away as Dawn giggled mischievously.
And it was then that they knew what they had to do,
They had to stop all the ghosts that were comin' through,
They're here to fight for me and you!
Walking down into their Parents' Lab with their Friends, the Fenton Twins suddenly froze in their tracks as Danny felt a shiver crawl up his spine and a green cold mist flew out of his mouth just as Dawn started feeling a warm sensation generating from her stomach as a puff of blue smoke flew out of her mouth and Sam, Tucker, and Lucas spotted this as they all flinched and looked around just as the Fenton Portal suddenly opened up and all of Danny and Dawn's Ghostly Enemies like Lunch Lady Ghost, Box Ghost, Skulker, Technus, Jeannie, Vlad Plasmius, Walker, Spectra, Ember Johnny 13, Kitty, and the Fright Knight appeared as they surrounded the shocked Teenagers.
After recovering from the sight of their Ghostly Enemies, the Fenton Twins then composed themselves as they glared up at their foes and struct heroic poses as a white/blue ring appeared over Danny's waist while another white/blue ring appeared across Dawn's body as both rings traveled across their bodies vertically/horizontally, and the Fenton Twins had transformed into the Phantom Twins as they floated up into the air with their hands glowing with green/blue ectoplasmic energy as their Friends were quick to join in the fight as a determined Sam puts on the Fenton Ghost Gauntlets and they lit up with violet electricity as a smirking Tucker activated his Ecto-Arm-Blasters and a grinning Lucas pulled out his Jack o' Nine Tails as he whipped it threateningly and Team Phantom flew/ran over the now shocked and scared Ghostly Enemies.
They're going to catch 'em all 'cause they're Danny and Dawn Phantom!
Raising his glowing ectoplasmic green hands, Danny Phantom began blasting multiple ecto blasts at Skulker, who flew away to avoid his attacks as Walker flew over to throw a megaton punch at the Male Halfa, who was able to use his Spectral Manipulation to stretch his body around in a circular formation to avoid the attack as a roaring Sam jumped up into the air and delivered a powerful punch across Technus's face with the help of her Ghost Gauntlets as an impressed Danny smiled at this but then froze as his Ghost Sense was activated and whirled around to see Vlad Plasmuis floating in the air while crossing his arms with a smug grin on his face as Danny glared up at him and flew over to attack him with his eyes glowing a bright ghostly green.
Gonna catch 'em all 'cause they're Danny and Dawn Phantom!
Summoning a big blue ectoplasmic energy sword, Dawn Phantom was quick to block Fright Knight's as she then turned intangible and allowed the surprised Ghostly Warrior to phase through her as the White-Haired Hybrid whirled around and fired a big ecto blue energy blast that collided against the Fright Knight and sends him flying away as a smirking Lucas whipped his Jack o' Nine Tails, and it was able to fly up to wrap around the Fright Knight's body as the Curly Red-Haired Teenage Boy grunted in effort and pulled on his weapon as he sends a screaming Fright Knight flying over to collide against a surprised Lunch Lady Ghost. Grinning proudly at her Crush's accomplishment, Dawn then flinched lightly as she felt her Ghost Sense being activated and was quick to turn around as the Female Halfa raised her arm and used her telekinesis to latch onto a shocked Ember as the Female Halfa sends her flying away, but then grunted in pain as a manically laughing Spectra appeared and collided against her in mid-air as they wrestled against each other and glared into each other eyes as Dawn Phantom gritted her teeth furiously.
Gonna catch 'em all 'cause they're Danny and Dawn Phantom!
Rolling forward, Tucker swiftly stood up into a low crouch and raised his Ecto Blasters into the air as he began firing multiple ecto blasts at Johnny 13 and Kitty, who was riding on a motorcycle as they were forced to ride away to avoid the blasts as the Box Ghost and Jeannie appeared as they raised their glowing hands menacingly and was about to attack him, only for a deadpanned Tucker to casually wish that all of his Ghostly Enemies were warped away as Jeannie was unable to resist him and grants his wish as she used her Ghostly Magic to teleport herself, Box Ghost, Johnny 13, and Kitty back to the Ghost Zone.
Gonna catch 'em all 'cause they're Danny and Dawn Phantom!
After defeating all of their Powerful Ghostly Enemies, Team Phantom could be seen standing in front of the logo of their story while making cool action poses as the Phantom Twins stood back to back with their arms crossed and had determined looks on their faces, Sam placed her hands on her hips with a cocky smirk on her face, Tucker leans back with a cool expression on his face, Lucas had his back against the readers with his arms crossed as he turned his head and had a grin on his face as, before anyone could react, a random Ectopus appeared out of nowhere and roared into the Teenagers' faces, but Danny and Dawn Phantom merely blasted him away with their Ghostly Ice/Fire Vision as they winked at the readers playfully.
~{Danny and Dawn Phantom-Season 1 Theme Song Over}~
The next morning, we see the Fenton family enjoying their breakfast when suddenly, Jazz jumps into the kitchen with a magazine in her hands as she was basically bouncing in excitement.
"Oh my gosh, they said yes!" Jazz exclaimed as everybody stared at her in confusion, except for Maddie as she was working on a new invention.
"Who said yes? The person you asked if you were a conceited snob?" Danny asked sarcastically as Dawn snorted in amusement and Jazz glared at him.
"No. Genius Magazine said yes! They got my letter and want to put Mom on the cover!" Jazz squeals excitedly while hugging her magazine.
"Genius Magazine?" Maddie asked confusedly while putting down her device as she turned to her daughter. "What's that?" Maddie asked curiously as Jazz was about to answer but got distracted by her father snatching the magazine out of her hands as he gazed down at it excitedly.
"Genies Magazine?!" Jack asked before staring at the magazine in confusion. "Is it the swimsuit issue?" Jack asked as Dawn facepalmed at her father's question.
"No." Jazz deadpans as Jack pouted in disappointment. "Genius Magazine is for woman geniuses by woman geniuses, and about women geniuses."
"...So, it is the swimsuit issue...oh, gross! Mom's gonna be in the swimsuit issue?" Danny exclaims in disgust as Dawn rolled her eyes and continued eating her cereal.
"It's not the swimsuit issue! But it is the perfect magazine to show that I have normal parents instead of a couple of ghost hunting freaks!" Jazz exclaims as Dawn frowns and crossed her arms at her sister.
"Jazz, that's not nice. They're not ghost hunting freaks. They're more like... ghost enthusiasts." Dawn says, trying to defend her parents just as Jack pops in.
"Speaking of ghost hunting, why don't you guys check out the latest in ghost-hunting technology: the Ghost Gabber!" Jack exclaimed while grabbing the invention that Maddie was working on and haven't finished building as he holds the device closer to the twin's faces. "It takes the mysterious sounds a ghost makes and translates them into words that you and I use every day. Here, try it." Jack suggested as the twins glanced at each other worriedly before gazing down at the device.
"Uh...boo?" The twins said hesitantly as the machine beeped.
"We're ghosts. Fear us." The machine replied with a woman's voice as the family raised an eyebrow and glanced at the twins in confusion as they smiled at them weakly.
"We better get to school," Danny says as the machine beeps.
"We better get to school. Fear me." The machine says as Dawn panicked and stood up as the Female Halfa grabbed Danny's arm.
"Well, better, go, bye!" Dawn says before running off with Danny as the machine beeps.
"Well, better, go, bye! Fear me."
"Well, we're definitely not going to use or go near that device ever again," Dawn says as Danny nodded in agreement, and they ran out of the house.
"That...was weird," Jack says while looking at the Ghost Gabber questioningly as Maddie grabs Jazz's magazine and looks through it as she frowns.
"That's great about the magazine, sweetie, but your father and I are a team. I think that beside every genius woman, there's a genius man."
"Who should be standing beside her on the cover of Genius Magazine!" Jack shouted while appearing beside his wife as he placed his arm around her shoulder and smirked proudly. "The world needs to know that the Fenton's are a family of geniuses!"
"I got a 'D'!?" Danny exclaimed while staring at his test in disbelief as he and the others were sitting in the Casper High Library. "All this ghost hunting is taking away from my study time!"
"Well, it's at least better than an 'F', right?" Dawn says sheepishly while placing a comforting hand on his shoulder as Danny groans and slams his head on the desk.
"I can't get a 'D' in biology! My parents will kill me!" Danny yelled while grabbing his hair in frustration as Lucas turned to Dawn.
"Hey, Dawn. How is it that you get an 'A' while your brother got an 'F'? You've been fighting ghost as long as he did." Lucas says as Dawn looks away shyly and rubs her neck nervously.
"I have a Photographic Memory, so I don't have to study as hard as other people."
"Well, good for you," Danny says sarcastically as Dawn frowned slightly, and Danny grew guilty as he sighed tiredly. "I'm sorry, Dawn. It's just that I wish there was a way for me to raise my grade up."
"There actually may be a way to fix your problem," Sam says, gaining everyone's attention as she walked over to a computer and begins searching for something. "And that's by doing an extra credit biology assignment on this magnificent creature," Sam says while pulling up a web page about an endangered purple-back gorilla as everyone crowded around her.
"A purple-back gorilla?" Danny asked confusedly as Sam nodded eagerly.
"Yep. Extremely rare. Only two left, both males. After this, they're gone forever. Which is why you are going to prove he deserves to be set free."
"That sounds like a great idea, Sam," Lucas says as Sam smiled while Danny looks a little unsure.
"I don't know about this, Sam. I barely have time to study, let alone do an extra credit assignment." Danny says as Dawn frowns and placed her arm over his.
"Danny, if you want, I can take over the ghost hunting for a while until you get your grades up." Dawn suggested as Danny shakes his head.
"Out of the question. I will not allow my baby sister to fight ghosts alone. What happens if you get hurt out there, and I'm not there to help you?" Danny asked as Dawn rolled her eyes at her brother's overprotectiveness but smiled nonetheless as Tucker popped in.
"Well, if you won't allow Dawn to go solo for a few nights, then I may have another solution for your problem. All you need to do is learn how to manage your time better. That's why I decided to become your time manager. It's the least I can do after Lucas made me let all those ghosts out." Tucker says as Lucas glared at him and smacked him upside his head as the nerd yelps in pain.
"I don't know about this, Tuck," Danny says as Tucker rubbed his head and glares briefly at Lucas before turning to Danny as he smirked.
"It'll be my job to keep track of your schedule so you can do your schoolwork and catch all those ghosts that Lucas let loose," Tucker says as Lucas tried to swipe at him, but the techno-geek manages to dodge him. "Ha! Missed-Ow!" Tucker says before yelping in pain as Lucas punches his shoulder.
"Remember the last time you manage something?" Dawn asked while crossing her arms as Tucker rubs his arm and glared at the smirking Lucas before turning to Dawn as he pulls out his PDA.
"And I've already scheduled 'Remember: not to let Tucker handle the thermos'," Tucker says while showing them the reminder on his PDA as the twins glanced at each other, and Dawn gave him a pointed look as Danny sighs and reluctantly nodded.
"I suppose we could have a trial period."
"Sweet! Also, I scheduled some zoo time, so we can check out that gorilla. Let's go." Tucker says as everyone nodded and ran out of the library, not noticing Skulker phasing through a wall as he floats over to the computer and stared at the web page that Sam pulled up.
"Hmm, so this is your prey, eh, Ghost Kids?" Skulker says as a nerd named Mikey walked up to him.
"Eh, excuse me, sir?" Mikey asked nervously as Skulker scowls at him. "Are you finished with the computer?" He asked as Skulker stared at him blankly for a few seconds before shooting a series ecto-blasts at the nerd as he trapped him in ecto-webbing while hanging upside down and blindfolded as Mikey screamed in fright.
"You thought you could sneak up on me? Skulker? Ghost world's greatest predator?" Skulker asked angrily as Mikey screamed again and he smirked. "Quiet, you're in a library," Skulker says as he shoots ectoplasm to cover Mikey's mouth, and phases out through the wall, just as Dash and his friend Dale showed up as they stopped to look at the trapped Mikey and smiled.
"Whoa, you do that?" Dash asked Dale, who shakes his head.
"No, but I can always stop and appreciate high-quality bullying," Dale says just as the ectoplasm and webbing suddenly disappeared as Mikey screams and falls to the floor. Later at night, we see the gang hanging out at the Amity Park Zoo as the girls were observing a purple-back gorilla named Sampson safely from the observation tower.
"There he is, Dawn. Sampson. So gifted, so...majestic." Sam says as Dawn looks through her binoculars and sweatdrops as she saw Sampson scratching his butt.
"Yeah, very majestic, Sam," Dawn says while yawning a bit as the boys stood aside with bored looks on their faces.
"Sam, we've been watching the gorilla scratch his butt for, um, how long?" Danny asked Tucker with a yawn as the nerdy teenager glanced at his watch.
"Six hours," Tucker answered with a yawn.
"Time flies when you're majestically scratching your butt," Danny says as Lucas yawned.
"You know, when I thought we were going to be watching a gorilla, I thought it would be more exciting than this."
"Ditto," Dawn says as Sam ignored her friends' complaining and continued observing Sampson.
"It's only a matter of time before you find out something about Sampson nobody's ever learned," Sam says as an idea popped into her head, and Sam gasped as she turned to Danny. "You should go and try to communicate with him," Sam says excitedly before frowning as she saw Danny sleeping on the floor. "Ugh, great. Tucker, you're his manager, can you-" Sam asked before deadpanning as she saw Tucker sleeping on the floor. Tucker yawns as he scoots close to Danny and hugs him as Danny hugged back. "...Okay, this is going well. Guys, can you help me out here?" Sam asked her friends, who were sleeping on the floor, as Lucas unconsciously grabbed Dawn by her waist and brought her closer to his body as Dawn smiled and snuggles closer to Lucas's chest.
"Fine, I guess I will do this on my own...but first," Sam says while pulling out a camera as she takes a picture of the boys and laughs. "Boys hugging makes every yearbook funny," Sam says before taking another picture of Dawn and Lucas as she smirks mischievously. "And this makes great blackmail," Sam says while placing the photos in her pockets as she walked out of the observation tower. Unknown to Sam, however, Skulker appeared on the scene as he phased into the tiger habitat and spied on the sleeping twins through a pair of high-tech binoculars as the tiger sleeping behind him woke up and growls at him as Skulker rolled his eyes.
"Oh, please," Skulker says, unamused, as he raised his arm, and a small ecto-laser popped out as the tiger growled angrily and charges at him. Meanwhile, at the gorilla habitat, Sampson slept soundly on the floor until the sounds of growling/fighting woke him up as he sat up alarmed and notices Sam walking towards him as he growled at her in distress.
"What is it, you wondrous being?" Sam asked as Sampson ran towards her and grunted as he pointed towards the tiger habitat.
"Is something wrong?" Sam asked while looking to where he was pointing as Sampson slams into his habitat's cage door and hangs off of it as he continued grunting in distress. "You want out?" She asked as Sampson nodded, and Sam smiled as she nodded and quickly ran over to the habitat's control panel as the goth chick recklessly and stupidly hits the 'Open' button.
"Well, that was easy." Skulker says while wiping the tiger's blood off his hands as he kicked the tiger's corpse away before phasing out of the habitat as Skulker was about to find another hiding spot to spy on the twins when suddenly the words 'Gorilla Attacking' appeared on his visor. "What? Gorilla Attac-Aah!" Skulker says before screaming in surprise as Sampson suddenly drops down and landed on top of him as he starts hitting the startled ghost.
Blocking one of his hits, Skulker regains his bearings as he punched Sampson in his face, but the gorilla wasn't fazed by his attack as he grabs Skulker and spins him in the air with his feet before kicking him off as Sampson leaps towards him and bits his wrist armor. Skulker growled in annoyance as he pulls out a small wrist blaster and shoots ectoplasm onto Sampson's eyes. The purple-back gorilla grunted in pain as he lets go of Skulker and tries to pull the ectoplasm off of his eyes as Skulker jumps to his feet and shoots an ecto-net at him...only for Sampson to grab it mid-air as he rips off the ectoplasm from his face and glares at the shocked Skulker.
"Uh-oh," Skulker says as Sampson pulled on the net and spins a screaming Skulker around in the air before letting him go as Skulker was sent flying towards the observation tower and crashed through the windows as he landed beside the twins and their friends. The Fenton Twin's ghost Senses went off as Danny shivered, and Dawn coughs out smoke but continued sleeping as they snuggled their respective sleeping partners.
"Oh my gosh!" Sam shouted while appearing in the doorway as she was about to alert her friends, but Skulker covers her mouth with ectoplasm as he turned to Fenton Twins and grinned maliciously as he pulls out his ecto-blade.
"Now for the Ghost Twins," Skulker says as he was about to slice off Danny and Dawn's heads when suddenly, Sampson leaps through the window and knocks Skulker into the desk as the ghost hunter retaliated by kicking him off. Sampson growls slightly as he leaps towards Skulker, and the ghost hunter glared at him before phasing through the wall as Sampson slammed himself against the wall. Rubbing his head, Sampson roars in anger as he begins pounding on the wall, waking up the sleeping teenagers as they screamed in fright and realized they were still hugging as they let go of each other and screamed again before screaming again at the sight of the angry gorilla.
"Gorilla, loose!" Tucker and Lucas shouted as Danny and Dawn narrowed their eyes in determination.
"We got him! I'm going ghost!/Phantom Up!" Danny and Dawn screamed in unison as they transformed into their ghost forms and flew over to Sampson as Dawn grabbed the startled gorilla by his arms and phased him through the wall outside into the air as Danny followed after them.
"Alright, big guy, let's get you back to your habitat before you kidnap a woman and climb up a building," Dawn says as she phases Sampson into the gorilla habitat and drops him while Danny flies over to the control panel and shuts the door close as the others showed up.
"Danny, Dawn, I meant to tell you, there was a gho-" Sam says before getting interrupted by her friends as they glared at her.
"I wonder who let the gorilla go...Sam?" Danny asks while crossing his arms at Sam in disapproval as Dawn phased out of the habitat and landed beside her friends as she frowns at Sam sternly.
"Sam, I know you love animals and everything, but letting a wild gorilla free isn't exactly safe for the gorilla and all of the citizens in Amity Park," Dawn says while placing her hands on her hips as Lucas nodded.
"Yeah, Sam, what you did was extremely dangerous. If it wasn't for the twins, who knows what that gorilla could've done." Lucas says, alarmed, as Tucker smirked.
"Just wait until we tell everybody at school that you let out a four-hundred-pound gorilla," Tucker says as Sam stares at her friends blankly and showed the boys a picture of them hugging while sleeping.
"...Or we just keep it our little secret," Danny says sheepishly as Tucker nodded nervously.
"Yeah, we really have no proof she did it, you know," Tucker says as Sam smirks and turned to Dawn and Lucas, who crossed their arms at her.
"Well, we're still telling everyone what you did," Dawn says as Sam raised an eyebrow and pulls Dawn away from the boys as she discretely shows her the picture of her and Lucas snuggling up to each other. "...You know what? Nobody was hurt by the gorilla, so why don't we just forget this happened." Dawn suggested while blushing madly as Lucas raised an eyebrow in confusion.
"Why did you change your mind so quickly?"
"No reason." A blushing Dawn says while laughing nervously as Sam smirked coyly.
The next morning, at Fenton Works, we see Maddie, Jack, and Jazz sitting on the couch in the living room as they were in the middle of an interview with a journalist from Genius Magazine named Connie.
"A few more questions, Maddie," Connie says while sitting in front of the Fenton Family with a tape recorder in her hand. "Can you tell our readers what you're working on now?" She asked as Maddie was about to speak up but got interrupted by her husband as he pulls out Ghost Gabber.
"Well, it's called the Ghost Gabber, and-"
"Dad! Put that thing away!" Jazz yelled at her father angrily before turning to Connie as she smiled. "She's actually working on a new form of self-generating energy. She's an amazing, intelligent woman who's about to change the world." Jazz says proudly as Maddie smiled and turned to Connie.
"Connie, my primary focus these days is ghost hunting," Maddie says as Connie blinks slowly.
"Um, forgive me. Did you say ghost hunting?" Connie asked in disbelief as Jazz groans and facepalms as Danny, Dawn, and the others come through the front door with the twins looking exhausted.
"Danny, Dawn, look at you! I'm not sure I like this overnight zoo research." Maddie says with a frown as Danny smiled weakly.
"Mom, come on. We're just a bunch of kids in the zoo...at night...alone." Danny trails off as everyone stares at him silently. "We'll be in our rooms," Danny says before walking upstairs as the others followed him.
"We'll be in our rooms. Fear me." The Ghost Gabber says as Connie raised an eyebrow at the machine while Jazz glares at her father.
"Give me that!" Jazz yelled in annoyance while snatching the Ghost Gabber from her father's hands as she hides it under a pillow and smiles at Connie. "Now, where were we?"
"Here we go, guys. Home in time for some well-deserved rest." Tucker says as he and the others reached the twin's room, and his PDA beeps. "But keep it quick because you've got thirteen minutes." Tucker says just as the Twin's Ghost Sense went off as their bedroom door was suddenly flung open, and Skulker popped out.
"Hello, Ghost Twin's," Skulker says with an evil grin as Danny and Dawn stared at him in shock, and before they could react, Skulker raised his hand as he shoots out a net that trapped the twins and pulled them inside their room as he slams the door shut behind him.
"Danny! Dawn!" Sam, Tucker, and Lucas shouted as we cue to the bedroom and see the twins struggling to escape from their bonds as Skulker loomed over them threateningly.
"The human ghost children in their natural habitat," Skulker says while eyeing the kids sinisterly as Danny and Dawn shivered in fear from his gaze.
"W-Who are you?" The twins asked in unison as Skulker grins.
"I am Skulker." He says, introducing himself to the scared children as he held up a tiny cage filled with ghosts. "A collector of things rare and unique. And, you two, Ghost Boy and Ghost Girl, are that and more." Skulker says with a laugh as he steps towards them and accidentally smashes a model rocket.
"Hey, my rocket! I built that!" Danny yelled angrily as Skulker raised an eyebrow at them unamusedly.
"Pity, though. I'd hoped you would put up more of a fight." Skulker says as Danny and Dawn glared at him and transformed into their ghost forms.
"Oh, don't worry," Danny started as he and his sister used their combined strength to break out of the net as Skulker stared at them in surprise.
"We will!" Dawn finished as Danny held out his hand, and Dawn grabbed it as Danny twirled her around before tossing her towards Skulker as Dawn delivered a double kangaroo kick that sends Skulker flying to a wall. Skulker rubs his chest in slight pain as he notices a small dent in his armor and growls as he pulls out a small wrist ray and blasted an ecto-beam at Dawn.
"Look out!" Danny yelled while tackling Dawn out of harm's way as the ecto-beam zoomed past them and destroyed a set of blueprints that lay on a desk as Dawn's eyes widen in horror.
"No! My blueprints for my robot butler!" Dawn shouted as Danny eyed her oddly. "What? I don't like cleaning my room." She says defensively before yelping as Skulker flies towards them and swipes at them with his ghostly blade as they dodge out of the way, and Danny grabbed Skulker by his arm as he judo-flipped him away, and the Phantom Twins charged at him.
"That's the ghost from the zoo!" Sam shouted as she and the boys struggled to open the door.
"Danny?" Tucker asked.
"No, the other one."
"Dawn?" Lucas asked as Sam shakes her head.
"No, the other, other one!" Sam shouted as they heard a loud crash in Danny and Dawn's room and glanced at each other worriedly as they were about to ram through the door, but then-
"Hello? What's going on up there?" Jazz asked annoyedly as the teens panicked and ran back downstairs.
"You know, ghost hunting isn't the only thing my parents do, Connie. It's really a side interest." Jazz explained to a curious Connie. "What they're really into is-" Jazz says before hearing loud crashes from upstairs as Jack stood up, alarmed.
"GHOST! GHOST! GHOST!" Jack shouted just as Sam and the others appeared.
"Kids, get down! There's a ghost in the house!" Maddie shouted while standing up from the couch as Jazz and Connie did the same.
"Actually, there's three-" Tucker says before grunting as Sam and Lucas elbow him, and he realized his mistake as Tucker smiled at them sheepishly. "...I mean, what ghosts?" Tucker asked nervously as everybody stared at him silently. "...I'll get some snacks."
"I'll come with you," Lucas says as the boys entered the kitchen while Sam stayed behind as she smiled at the suspicious parents sheepishly.
"Yeah, the twins are upstairs," Sam says before wincing as another loud crash occurred. "Uh, lifting weights?"
"They don't have exercise equipment up there," Maddie says suspiciously.
"My computer! Oh, wait, that's Jazz's." Danny's voice rang out as another crash occurred.
"Wait a minute...that's my computer! I will kill that bastard!" Dawn's angry yell rang out as everyone winced from her scream.
"He's already dead."
"I don't care!" Dawn screamed as everyone eyed a nervous Sam suspiciously. Back with the boys, we see them running into the kitchen as Danny and Dawn crash through the ceiling and fell onto the kitchen table, breaking it to pieces as Skulker jumps down and loomed over the terrified teens threateningly.
"Come, Ghost Twins, time to see your new home," Skulker says as he grabs the twins and phases them through the floor as the boys were about to run after their friends but then panicked as they heard footsteps heading towards the kitchen.
"Quick! Lay on the floor!" Lucas half-whispered/half-yelled as Tucker nodded and fell on the floor just as the adults showed up as Lucas grabbed onto Tucker's hand and pretended to be in a throwing position.
"And that's how you do a judo-flip, Tucker," Lucas says, confusing Jack and the others as Tucker stood up and dusts off his pants.
"Thanks for giving me an example, bud, but maybe next time, don't use me as the example," Tucker says, playing along as he turned to Jack and Maddie. "Sorry for breaking your table, Mr. and Mrs. Fenton."
"Yeah, sorry." Lucas apologized as everyone blinked confusedly
"What's going on?" Connie asked, just as another crash was heard downstairs.
"Sounds like rats in the lab," Tucker says as Jack narrowed his eyes.
"Ghost rats. I knew it."
"Don't worry, we'll get rid of them," Sam says as she and the boys ran downstairs.
"I'd like to learn a little more about Danny and Dawn." Connie hummed to herself as she begins to walk towards the stairs.
"Uh, that's probably not such a great idea!" Jazz says, alarmed.
"I'd like to see what's he's doing up there, anyway," Maddie says as she and Jack begin walking towards the stairs.
"Wait!" Jazz cried out as she chased after the adults. Meanwhile, with the Phantom Twins, we see Skulker slamming Danny and Dawn onto the floor of the lab as they grunted in pain and glare at him.
"What are you doing?" Danny asked as Skulker wordlessly raises them up to the air by their throats, and the Phantom Twins gagged for air and struggled to escape from his grip as Skulker grinned at them.
"Bringing you both back to my world, where I can put you two on display."
"WHAT!?" Danny and Dawn exclaimed in unison as Skulker smirked and presses a button on his wrist that somehow manages to turn on the Fenton Portal as Dawn raised an eyebrow at this in confusion.
"How did he-" Dawn asked before shutting up as Danny shot her a look. "Sorry, not important," Dawn says sheepishly as Skulker smirks.
"Ha! At last. Time to put you two in your cage." Skulker says sinisterly as he started walking towards the portal.
"NOOOOOOOO!" The Phantom Twins cried out in terror as they tried again to escape from his grasp but failed as Skulker was about to enter the portal, only for Sam to suddenly show up as she slides between Skulker and the portal and glared at him as she held out her arms.
"No, it's right, guys! Cages are wrong! How do you think Sampson feels being in a cage?" Sam asked as Skulker blinks.
"But-"
"He's a beautiful animal and deserves to roam free!"
"I-"
"Should be ashamed!" Sam shouted as Skulker stammered, not knowing what to say as Lucas sneaked behind a distracted Skulker and tossed the Fenton Fisher over to Dawn, who reacted quickly as she threw out the line as it entangles Skulker's arms, causing him to raise an eyebrow in confusion as Dawn smirked.
"Hey, Skulker! Why are you hitting yourself?" Dawn asked as she pulled on the line and caused Skulker to accidentally punch himself as he yelped in pain, and Dawn's smirk widens. "Why are you hitting yourself? Why are you hitting yourself? Why are you hitting yourself?" Dawn says while repeatedly pulling on the Fenton Fisher line as Skulker continued punching himself multiple times before getting dizzy as he lets go of the twins, and Danny used the chance the advantage to deliver a kick that sends Skulker flying across the room as he flew towards Tucker, who screamed as they crashed against each other and fell down. Skulker rubs his head as he looks down and saw that Tucker dropped his PDA as he picks it up and inspects it.
"This technology: so sleek, so...advanced," Skulker says in amazement as he looks at the old control panel on his wrist and winced as he turned back to the PDA and hums thoughtfully. "I wonder..." Skulker says as he yanks his busted, outdated control panel off of his wrist and drops it on the floor as Skulker then replaces its slot with Tucker's PDA as the small machine begins to spark and his armor begins to adjust to its new power source.
"Hey, I got three more payments on that!" Tucker yelled while walking towards him as Skulker smacks him away and then looks back at his wrist as he smirked.
"Marvelous," Skulker says as a couple of wires popped out of his armor and connected with the PDA, causing Skulker to glow green as the Phantom Twins noticed that he was distracted and flew towards him to attack, only to yelp in surprise as Skulker blasted them with a new ecto-blaster from his wrist and sends them flying to a wall as their arms and legs were bounded by glowing green ecto-cuffs.
"Way to go, Tucker! You just made the bad guy more bad!" Sam scolded as Tucker raised his hands in surrender.
"How was I supposed to know my PDA was ghost compatible?"
"Not the time, guys!" Lucas yelled, reminding them of the threat as they watched Skulker fly over to the trapped Halfas and aimed an ecto-canon at them.
"Say goodbye to this world, Ghost Twins," Skulker says as Dawn trembles in fear, and Danny hugs her protectively as Skulker was about to blast them but then stopped as his PDA began beeping. "What?" Skulker asked as he glances at his PDA and reads what it says out loud. "Fly to the library? Get a book on eating habits of purple-back gorilla?" Skulker says confusedly as his jetpack suddenly pops out, and turns on as he was blasted towards the ceiling. "No! Stop! The hunt is not over!" Skulker yelled as he tried to turn off his jetpack, but failed as he looked up at the approaching ceiling fearfully and quickly turned invisible as he phased through the roof and flew past Jack, who was walking up the stairs with others as he paused and turns around as he narrows his eyes...before shrugging as he continued climbing up the stairs.
"What happened?" Sam asked as Danny and Dawn's ectoplasmic bonds disappeared, and the boys helped them up.
"Who cares? At least we got a minute to relax and figure this out." Danny says as Dawn looks up at the roof suspiciously and then turned to her friends.
"Did you guys noticed that Skulker said something about purple-back gori-,"
"Danny? Dawn? Where are you? Somebody here wants to meet you two?" Maddie says as Danny and Dawn's eyes widen in horror.
"D'oh! Our room!" Danny and Dawn Phantom shouted as they turned intangible and flew up as they phased through the roof and reached their shared room as they transformed back into their human forms just as Maddie opens the door.
"Danny, Dawn, this is Connie from Genius Magazine-"
"Don't you people ever knock?!" Danny and Dawn shouted while shutting the door closed as they leaned against it.
"You do realize Jazz is going to kill us, right?" Dawn asked her brother, who nodded with a groan.
"I'm gonna kill them for that." Jazz muttered irritatedly.
"Brooding? Messy? Reclusive? Now those are the signs of true geniuses. Oh! If only both of them were women." Connie says with an annoyed frown. Later on, after Dawn got a quick interview with Connie, the twins left their house as they met up with their friends and walked up the steps leading to their school as Danny and Dawn looks around anxiously.
"Any sign of him?" Danny asked as Tucker pulls out his new PDA and shakes his head.
"Nope. He hasn't bothered you guys for...thirty-eight minutes. Maybe he's hunting somebody else now."
"How many of those things do you have?" Sam asked while eyeing his PDA as Tucker smirked.
"Just two. Good thing I beamed all of your info in here and backed it up. Global thinking, guys: the sign of a quality time manager." Tucker says to the twins with pride as his PDA beeps, and his eyes widen as he grabbed Danny and Dawn's hands. "Come on, your late." Tucker says while pushing them towards the school as Sam and Lucas followed after them, not noticing Skulker phasing up from the floor as he narrowed his eyes at his fleeing prey.
"Soon, Ghost Twins, soon," Skulker says before disappearing from sight as he followed the teens stealthily. After finishing Mr. Lancer's English class, the group walked into the hallway as the twins reached their locker and opened it, only to yelp in shock as a pair of glowing ecto-chains jumped out of their lockers and wrapped around them.
"Danny/Dawn!" Sam, Tucker, and Lucas shouted as Skulker materializes out of the green mist in front of them and aims his ecto-blaster at the scared twins.
"I have you now, Ghost Brats," Skulker says sinisterly as he was about to blast them but stopped as his PDA beeps. "What?" Skulker asked, confused as he started reading the PDA out loud. "Go to the newsstand and purchase a magazine with an article about purple-back gorillas?" Skulker says as his jetpack activates, and he flew off as Skulker crashed through the ceiling, and flew through the air.
"Are you guys okay?" Lucas asked the twins, who nodded as the chains dissipate.
"Hmmm, I have the same thing on mine," Tucker says while checking his PDA as Danny rubs his sides.
"I think we'll blow that one off." Danny says as Dawn nodded before looking up at the roof as she narrows her eyes suspiciously. Later at the bleachers, we see the group eating their lunch, except for the twins, who were trembling in fear as they looked around frantically.
"Guys, eat something," Sam says worriedly as the twins shake their heads stubbornly.
"We can't eat now," Danny says as Dawn nodded.
"Yeah, he could be anywhere."
"Guys, you can't exactly fight him on an empty stomach," Lucas says as the Fenton Twins sighed but nodded as Dawn reached over to grab her cartoon of milk and opened it when suddenly two glowing green orbs popped out of the milk carton as they wrapped themselves around Danny and Dawn's necks, and it lifted them off the bleachers as the twins struggled to breathe.
"Danny/Dawn!" Sam, Tucker, and Lucas shouted panickily while watching helplessly as their friends gasped for air, and Skulker suddenly appeared as he pulled out his ecto-blade and aimed at the twin's heads.
"Now, kids, once more, I, Skulker, shall-" Skulker says before getting interrupted by his PDA beeping again as he reads what it says out loud again. "Take photos of a gorilla?" Skulker says as his jetpack activates, and he flies away as the restraints on Danny and Dawn's necks disappeared, and they fell on the floor.
"Well, at least he's regular," Sam says while helping the twins up to their feet as they caught their breaths.
"Yeah, almost like a schedule," Dawn says as she and Danny's eyes widen in realization as they turned to each other.
"You don't think..." Danny says as Dawn nodded and turned to Tucker.
"Tucker, what's next on your schedule?" She asked as Tucker pulled out his PDA.
"Gym, why?" Tucker asked as Dawn turned back to Danny, and they stared at each other for a few seconds before smirking mischievously as they nodded. Later at the Boys' Locker Room, we see a shirtless Dash admiring himself in the mirror as Danny, Tucker, and Lucas were changing in the background.
"You are one smooth-looking dude," Dash says to himself as Danny rolled his eyes and was about to open his locker but stopped as Danny remembered Skulker's traps and smirks as an idea popped into his head and turned over to Dash.
"Hey, Dash? I'm too weak and defenseless to open my locker. Can you open it for me?" Danny asked as Dash scoffs and walks over to him.
"Out of the way, loser," Dash says while shoving him away as he opened Danny's locker and screamed as an ectoplasmic goo shoots out and traps him in a bubble on the wall as he was also blindfolded for some reason.
"Hmmm, weird," Skulker says while turning visible as he inspects the trapped teenager. "My sensors indicate you're an average human, destined for an average life after high school." Skulker says while looking at his wrist as Dash screams, although it was muffled by the bubble as Skulker turns his head and saw the boys peeking out from a row of lockers as Skulker narrowed his eyes and formed an explosive ball of ectoplasm in his hand.
"I shall-" Skulker says before hearing his PDA beep as he reads what it says. "Visit the gorilla display at the museum of natural history." Skulker reads dully as he sighs and slumps his shoulders in defeat as his jetpack pops out, and he was flown out of the locker room.
"Why's he going there?" Tucker asked confusedly as Danny smirked.
"Dawn and I had figured out that when Skulker put your PDA into his technology, he became bound to our schedule. He has to go where we were going to go next." Which means..." Danny says as he checks Tucker's PDA, and it reads, 'VISIT GORILLA HABITAT'. "It's time for the hunter to become the hunted," Danny says as Tucker and Lucas smirk.
"Nice, let's wait for the girls to come out of the locker room, so we can come up with a plan," Lucas says as the boys nodded and they ran out of the locker room. Meanwhile, in the girl's locker room, we see Dawn and Sam changing in the Girls' Locker Room as Dawn was about to open her locker but hesitated as she glanced over at Paulina, who was taking a shower in a stall as she had left her clothes on a bench. Grinning, Dawn grabbed Paulina's clothes and turned them invisible just as Paulina walked out while wearing only a towel as she reached for her clothes...only to grab air as Paulina blinks in surprise.
"Hey, where are my clothes?" Paulina asked with an annoyed look as Dawn coughed, getting the popular girl's attention as the young Halfa gave Paulina a fake guilty look.
"I'm so sorry, Paulina. I was going to get rid of your clothes and push you into the hallway so that everyone can see you naked, but I couldn't follow through with it." Dawn says as Paulina rolled her eyes and scoffed.
"Of course you can't. You don't have a spine to be ruthless like me. Now, where are my clothes, freak?" Paulina asked as Dawn clenched her fist angrily but composed herself as she pointed at her locker.
"I hid it in my locker."
"Really, Fenton? How predictable you can be." Paulina says as she walked over to Dawn's locker and opened it as ectoplasmic goo shoots out, and Paulina screamed in terror as she was trapped in a giant ecto-bubble and was also blindfolded for some reason as she pleaded for help.
"Ha, ha, ha!" The girls laughed loudly as Sam took a quick picture and hid it in her shorts as she turned to Dawn.
"Let me guess, when Skulker planted Tucker's PDA into his armor, he is now forced to follow the schedule that Tucker made for you guys?" Sam asked as Dawn smiled and nodded.
"Yep, now come on, let's go meet up with the boys to come up with a plan...but not before I do this," Dawn says as she pulled out Paulina's clothes and turned them intangible as she phased the Latina's clothes into the wall, and let go of them as they got stuck in between the walls.
"Ooh, girl, you are evil," Sam says as Dawn giggled sneakily, and they shared a high-five before leaving as Paulina continued screaming for help.
Later at night, we see Skulker hiding up a tree in Sampson's habitat as he was spying on the purple-back gorilla through his binoculars. After a few minutes of watching the gorilla scratch his behind, Skulker lets out a frustrated groan as he jumps out of the tree and landed on the ground as he looks around.
"Where the hell are they!?" Skulker yelled while kicking the ground childishly as he looks down at his gauntlet. "According to this infernal device," Skulker says while eyeing his PDA, which was playing a game of Pong for some reason, as Skulker's eye twitched in annoyance. "Which I cannot reprogram, the Phantom Twins were supposed to be here an hour ago!" Skulker says before turning to Sampson as he glares at him. "You were supposed to be the bait, you stupid animal!" Skulker yells in frustration as Sampson turns around, and the ghost hunter gasped in surprise to find out that it was just Sam, Lucas, and Tucker holding up a fake Sampson suit.
"Sampson's not stupid!" Sam yelled with a glare as Tucker smirked at him.
"He's also not here. Can I take a message?" He asked while holding up his PDA and stylus as Skulker glared at them.
"You three! You'll pay for this!" Skulker yells as multiple lethal weapons and missiles popped out of his armor as he then aimed at the teens, who weren't afraid in the slightest, as Lucas turned over to Tucker.
"Tucker, care to do the honor?" Lucas asked with a smirk as Tucker smirked back.
"With pleasure." Tucker says as he presses 'SEND' on his PDA, and suddenly Skulker's PDA beeps as he checks it.
"Time for push-ups. What?" Skulker asked in confusion as his body suddenly froze up, and his weapons disappeared as Skulker suddenly drops down to the floor and started doing some push-ups. "Stop! Stop! I can't...stop!" Skulker screamed as Lucas smirked and crossed his arms.
"Don't worry, I know a couple of people that can help you with that," Lucas says as Skulker raised an eyebrow.
"Really? Who?" Skulker asked as someone taps his shoulder, and he turns his head to see the Phantom Twins floating behind him. "Oh, crap," Skulker says as Danny raises his fist and throws a punch as his fist flies through the air while leaving behind a trail of intangibility as his fist connected with Skulker's face and sends him flying into the wall of the habitat.
"You like that? I call it my 'Spectral Punch'." Danny says with a smirk as Dawn flies in and levitated in the air as her body was covered in a ghostly blue aura. Skulker groans as he rubs his head and looks up as he saw Dawn ripping the bars out from Sampson's habitat and throws them at him at high speeds. Skulker gasps as he closes his eyes and waited for the inventible...only to blink in confusion as he opens his eyes and gasps as he noticed that Dawn wrapped the metal bars around his body, thus trapping him as he struggled to escape.
"Now, Danny!" Dawn yelled as Danny flew in and threw multiple punches at the defenseless Skulker, causing pieces of metal to fly off his suit as Skulker grunted in pain before glaring as he turned intangible and slipped out of his bonds as he grabs Danny's last punch and threw him off as he aimed his ecto-blaster at him.
"Danny!" Dawn yelled worriedly as Tucker smirked.
"Ah-ah-ah. 10:11, polish armor." Tucker says as he sends another command from his PDA, and SKulker's blaster turns into a buffer as it polishes his face.
"Aah! Skulker yelped in surprise as the teenagers laughed until they noticed Tucker forcing Skulker to do the macarena as they glared at him.
"Stop fooling around, Tucker!" Sam says as Lucas nodded.
"Yeah, man, stop playing with him, and power him down before he does anything!" Lucas says as Tucker waves off their concern with a lazy grin.
"Relax, guys, everything's totally under-," Tucker says before shutting up as Skulker shot an arrow at him while he was distracted and hits his PDA as it was pinned to a tree. "...control. Aw, man! I had four more payments on this one!"
"Guys, can you smack him for us?" Dawn asked as Sam and Lucas nodded and smacked Tucker on the back of his head.
"Ow!"
"Thanks, also, Tucker? You're fired." Danny says before he and Dawn turned to Skulker, who stood up and glared at the twins.
"Very well. I planned on simply capturing you two and letting you both live the rest of your lives in a cage. But now, I will rest your pelts at the foot of my bed." Skulker says with a glare as everyone stared at him silently, thinking about what he said as everyone's face went green.
"Okay, that's just gross," Sam says with the boys nodding in agreement as Skulker ignored them and continued glaring at the twins.
"Well, Ghost Boy, Ghost Girl, any last words?" Skulker asked as they smirked.
"Just this." Danny and Dawn said in unison as they patted their heads, then covered their eyes repeatedly and began pounding their chests with their fists.
"What are you doing?" Skulker asked, and he wasn't the only one confused as Sam and the others wondered what their friends were planning.
"Calling a friend," Dawn says while she and Danny were scratching their butts.
"What frien-Aah!" Skulker says before yelping in surprise as Sampson suddenly flies in and crashes into him as the gorilla began beating up.
"You two learned his language?" Sam asked in disbelief as the twins nodded.
"Well, sure, all he does is this," Danny says while still scratching his butt as the teens then turned to Sampson and cheer for him as the large gorilla continued Skulker to a bloodied pulp. Dawn and her friend's cheers died down as Sampson rips off Skulker's arms and beats him with it as they winced.
"Man, now I feel bad for Skulker," Dawn says as everyone nodded.
"But I still don't understand why a ghost needed a high-tech battle suit," Tucker says in confusion as Sampson continues to rip Skulker's armor apart and throws pieces of it over the group's head as the Phantom Twins dodges some of the pieces thrown at them, and Danny manages to catch Skulker's head armor as he sees two small green legs kicking out from inside the head.
"Let me go! I am the Skulker! The Skulker! Do you hear me? Fear me!" A squeaky voice says as Dawn curiously floats over to Danny and grabs the tiny legs as she pulls it out of Skulker and was dumbfounded to see a small green blob with a face and limbs.
"What the heck? Is that how you really look like Skulker?" Danny asked with a laugh as the others snickered as well.
"Don't laugh at me, child! I am the greatest hunter in all of the ghost world! You will all fear me!" Skulker says threateningly, although nobody took him seriously, thanks to his small body and high-pitched voice.
"Aww, you look so cute when you try to be threatening." Dawn gushes as Skulker glared at her.
"I will cut your brother up to pieces and force you to eat his remains, Ghost Girl!"
"Oh, I'm sure you will, little guy," Dawn says with a baby-like voice while pinching his cheek as Danny turned to Lucas.
"Thermos, please," Danny says as Lucas holds out the thermos and activates it as Danny snatched Skulker out of Dawn's hands and then drops Skulker into its beam.
"You haven't seen the last of me! I shall capture you all! You shall be mine! Mine! Do you hear me!? Mine-"
"Oh, shut up," Lucas says as he caps off the thermos, and the twins transformed back to normal as they landed on the ground.
"Cool, let's go home," Danny says as Dawn frowns.
"But Danny, what about your report? You will still get a 'D'." Dawn says worriedly as Danny waves off her concern.
"Ah, that's okay, Dawn," Danny says reassuringly while kneeling down to pick up Skulker's PDA as Sampson walks closer to him. "We stopped the bad guy, saved the gorilla," Danny says as he turns to look at the gorilla and smiled at him. "If that's all I got done, then that's-Holy shit!" Danny says before screaming as he looks down and was shocked at what he sees. A couple of days later, we cue back at Casper High as we see Lancer holding the latest Genius Magazine issue, which shows Maddie, Danny, and Dawn standing in front of Sampson, who was now named Sally, and her hair is dressed up into a bow, with Jack peeking out from behind Sally.
"Brooding genius twins Daniel and Dawn Fenton did what no other researcher dared to do. They got close enough to this rare purple-back gorilla to realize Sampson was actually a Delilah." Lancer says while reading the magazine to his class as he then stared at Danny in confusion. "Nobody at that zoo ever bothered to see if it was a boy or a girl?" He asked as Danny shrugs.
"That's weird, huh? Well, maybe they were respecting her privacy." Danny answered as Mr. Lancer smiles and closed the magazine.
"Well, Fenton, I have to admit, I'm impressed. Wanted to get your grade up so bad, you risked getting mauled by a gorilla." Lancer says as he grabs Danny's graded report card from his desk and walks over to Danny. "That's why I'm giving you a...C."
"What!?" Danny asked in shock as Lancer laughed.
"Just kidding, you risked getting killed to get your grade up, so I will be generous and give you an A," Lancer says while placing Danny's graded report card on his desk as he walked away.
"Congrats on the A, bro," Dawn says while walking out of the classroom with the others as Danny smiled.
"Yeah, all that hard work finally paid off. So, do you guys want to celebrate my A by going to-" Danny says before noticing a large crowd forming around the Girl's Bathroom.
"Huh? What's going on?" Lucas asked curiously as the group pushed back the crowd and were shocked to see Paulina standing in the hallway naked as she was covered in ecto-plastic goo that thankfully covered her privates, but Paulina was still humiliated either way as half of the crowd laughed at her while the other took pictures of her.
"Whoa! How did that happen?" Danny asked with a blush while Tucker took pictures of Paulina, who cried as she ran away from the crowd.
"Oh, yeah, I forgot that Paulina was still trapped in that bubble. She must've finally broken free." Sam says amusedly as Dawn nodded with a grin as Lucas turned to them suspiciously.
"Why do I feel like this was somehow you guy's fault?"
"Well, technically, it was Skulker's fault for setting up the trap. How did we know that Paulina will open my locker?" Dawn asked innocently as Lucas raised an eyebrow at her but didn't say anything as he turned around, and Dawn and Sam shared a quick fist bump as they silently laughed at Paulina's misfortune.
And done! I hope you guys enjoy the chapter, and I can't wait to write the next chapter.
Anyway, as always, I will catch you all later.
