Chapter 12
It's been a while...sorry it's just that I was busy, but I will compensate it with a long chapter...almost 2,000 words...ENJOY!!!
After a long day of driving and passing through cities without much time to rest, Robin finally arrive to Illinois and in a few hours he'll be in Amity Park. He knew that something was wrong, but he didn't know what to be prepare for. Millions of scenarios ran through his mind and for the first time in a long while he felt scare for his little brother. But there was a problem at hand and he needed help.
- Excuse me, is this the road to Amity Park?- asked a slightly embarrassed Robin
- Yeah, you're going in the right direction!- answer a man in his late sixty
- Thanks for the help, sir!- answer Robin while preparing to take off
- You're welcome, young man.- said the man and that was the last thing Robin heard
In the next few hours, Robin kept driving without stopping or admiring his surroundings, all that matter was getting to Danny. So when he finally arrives to Amity Park he wasn't expecting what he saw. It was a big discussion between three couples and it was really loud, so Robin got closer to try to find out what was the problem.
- How DARE YOU do this to my SAMMIKINS?- shouted one of the woman
- And what about my Tucker, he was like a BROTHER to YOUR SON?- shouted the other woman, but she was a lot more calmer than the first one
- I'm sorry, but what THEY did was WRONG! JAZZ was also INVOLVED and she's paying for her crimes!- shouted the last woman, who was wearing something like a body suit
- I always knew that YOUR SON was a bad influence for my Sammy!- shouted the first woman, who seem to have popped out of an old magazine about rich people
- You could have told US and we could have decided on what to do!- shouted the second woman, who was black and had a more normal clothes than the other two
- It was the right choice! Now let's go, we need to see Jazz!- said one of the men, who was dressed with another body suit probably the third woman's husband
- You're right!- with that said they got inside of a weird RV and sped off
Robin thought of what to do and decided to speak to the remaining couples. After all, the names sounded similar to Danny's friends.
- Excuse me; I couldn't help but to hear your discussion. What's wrong?- asked Robin hoping that they could help him
- ...- nobody said anything while deciding if to tell everything to a child, but they all felt the commanding aura that he emitted and so decided to tell him
- Well, what happened was that a few pictures were delivered to the Fenton's house and they decided to publish these pictures in the news without consulting us. I mean the pictures were about our children!- said the perfectly dressed woman
- But what did the pictures showed that they were doing?- asked Robin a bit confused
- The pictures were of the kids with Phantom! I mean it probably was his fault and not the kids, but no it always start with their obsession and...- continue the perfectly dressed woman
- Wait, who's Phantom?- interrupted Robin
- You aren't from around here, are you?- asked the husband of the more normal looking woman
- No, I'm actually from a few states over.- answer Robin
- Well, Phantom is the famous or infamous ghost boy. Some people think that he's a hero, while others think that he's evil like all the other ghost and he's waiting for our trust to then betray us.- explain the more normal looking woman
- So a picture with him is really bad! Now, I'm sorry but I have to go. I need to know how is my little Sammy!- said the perfect woman while grabbing her husband's arm and going to their car
- There's something that I still don't get! I mean it'll give them a bad reputation and nothing else!- said Robin but a look at the faces of the remaining couple told him that he was completely wrong
- We wish that it was only that, but the problem is that Phantom is a ghost and that involves the Guys in White. Before you ask, they are a secret government organization with the mission of eliminating all paranormal beings. The thing is that they want all the children involve in those pictures in jail for questioning.- explain the woman
- And who are the kids that were involve?- asked Robin fearing that Danny was involve
- Jazz, Sam and Tucker, you probably don't know who they are.- said the woman
- Actually, I talked to Jazz once but I don't really know them.- said Robin
- Really, Jazz is the daughter of the Fenton's, Sam of the Manson's and Tucker is our son, we are the Foley's.- said Mrs. Foley
- Nice to meet you, I'm Dick. But where are they? Are they in...- asked Robin
- Oh no, we were able to protect them by agreeing to a "house arrest", but the same can't be said about Jazz. Been the daughter of ghost hunters, they thought she had to pay for her "crimes" so she's in jail.- answered Mrs. Foley
- I actually need to talk to the Fenton's, so could you tell me which is the house?- asked Robin
- Oh, sweetie you won't miss their house, just go down this street and you will see it! Thanks for listening!- said Mrs. Foley after laughing along her husband
- You're welcome and it was no problem!- said Robin, then he got on his motorcycle and sped off down the street
And just like Mrs. Foley said Robin easily found the Fenton's house. It was a big three story high building with an Op Center as a roof. He knew that the Fenton's weren't there, but something told him that Danny was in there. So he looks around the street to make sure nobody was around and then he concentrated on picking the door's lock. Compare to others locks this was like a walk in the park; after all it was just a normal lock. Robin quickly finishes with the lock and then entered the house; silence greeted him. But still the feeling that Danny was in the house wouldn't leave, so he decided to investigate the second floor.
Meanwhile in the lab, Danny was talking with his best friends that had run away from their homes an hour ago. But then he heard something weird that was far away and it was approaching the house, and fast. Danny was a bit worried since the only "person" he knew with a motorcycle was Johnny 13 and he was actually a ghost, but it couldn't be him since the Portal was practically close with all the extra energy he had. So he decided to say goodbye to his best friends while he investigated who was trying to break in the house.
- Guys, I need to go; there's someone trying to break in the house.- explain Danny as quickly as he could
- Do you need our help? We can always...- said Sam before been interrupted by Danny
- No, you should stay safe. I'll handle this, Ghost Boy out!- said Danny while cutting the communications off
He could hear how the person was picking the lock of the first door and then the person walked inside. Danny felt the hesitation on the person steps, but then the person went for the stairs and off to the second floor. Danny had a feeling that it was probably his brother, but he wasn't sure and even if he was sure he couldn't call out to him. It was all Maddie's fault, after all she was the one that close the door to the lab and it been soundproof didn't help at all. He had no choice but to wait for the person to finish exploring the upper floors and then come to the kitchen.
What Danny didn't know was that Robin wouldn't go up to the third floor, because he felt a pull and it was guiding him to the first floor. Robin was a person of methods and steps, but had learned a long time ago that he should always trust his instincts. So he kept walking to where the pull was taking him; until he found himself not only on the kitchen but in front a door. It was weird since he knew there couldn't be a room, but he opened it anyways and nothing happen because it was locked; so while picking the lock he prepare himself for what he might find. What he didn't know was that Danny had heard how he changed directions, went straight for him and then they were just a door away from seen each other.
Meanwhile in a cell in the Headquarters of the Guys in White, there was a teenage girl waiting to be interrogated by her own parents. But while waiting she was been watch and she knew it, she wasn't a prodigy in psychology for nothing; and still she didn't care. Anyone who had studies in psychology and observe her, they would say that she was innocent without a doubt in their minds. But the truth was that she knew that soon her rescue would come and she couldn't afford to be move any deeper into the building, it would only be harder for Danny. Then the door opened and in came her parents; they were disappointed in her and she was furious with them, it only meant trouble.
- Jazz, why aren't you cooperating with the GW? It's obvious that you didn't do anything wrong it's the fault of that ectowaste of space and time!- said Maddie almost shouting at the end
- It isn't his fault! I helped because I chose to and it was to protect our town!- exclaim Jazz
- You could have done that with us and not with that...- said Maddie before been interrupted by Jazz
- Stop it! I had it with all the insults! Unlike him you do nothing to protect this town!- said Jazz in a strong but calm tone of voice
- How dare you, Jazz? We have done nothing more than protecting this town!- said Maddie reaching a new level of fury
- Yeah right, "protecting"! Maybe that's why you're such a bad mother!- said Jazz without skipping a beat
Silence was all that could be heard after what she said. She knew that she had to stay calm but nobody said she couldn't verbally attack her own mother; after all she had done, it was a small punishment. But the silence that continue here, also continue somewhere else.
Now back at the Fenton's household, Robin had opened the door and was going down the stairs. He couldn't help but feel nervous at what he might find and he wasn't the only one. Danny was a nervous wreck and all he could do was waiting to see the boy. That's right it was a boy; while he was picking the lock, Danny had analyze the sounds that he had made and concluded that it was a teenage boy about his height and age. Then he heard it, the boy had taken his last step on the stairs and then they both gasped. They were so alike and it was obvious for them what that meant...
- Big brother?!?- whispered Danny with a mix of emotions fighting inside his core
- Danny?!?- whispered Robin only feeling two emotions; happiness and anger
