Phantom Falls

Chapter 3

Danny quickly sat back down in his seat, looking at the ground as he did. He slumped in his seat, placing his elbow on the armrest. He plopped his face into his palm, closing his eyes with a sigh. Jazz sat next to him and placed her hand on his arm with a smile smile. She whispered,

"Everything's going to be alright Danny, don't worry."

"Yeah right; I was promised a month off of ever having to worry about ghosts, and guess what i have to do now?" He paused for a second and looked up at Jazz throwing his hands in the air.

"Go Ghost!" He then realized he had yelled so his parents could hear. He slowly put down his hands as he watched his parents stare,

"I mean, Go ghosts!" He said with a fake cheer, awkwardly smiling. His parents nodded it off and went back to looking at the road and jamming out to their favorite song. Danny sighed in relief, slumping in his seat more than he already was. He threw the back of his wrist on his forehead, he quickly jerked it off as he felt sweat.

"Look at this Jazz, I'm sweating like a madman!" He swung his hand at her face showing the sweat. She leaned back in disgust and pushed his hand away with her finger. Danny finally slumped all of the way out of his seat and laid on the floor of the RV. He was in the middle of standing back up when his parents pressed on the brakes. He jerked forward then flew towards the front of the RV and hit the front windshield and fell to the ground. Danny quickly got up and rubbed his head with a wobble.

"Are you okay Danny?" Maddie said worryingly.

"I-I'm fine mom, thanks for asking." He said with a groan going back to his seat. Jazz quickly elbowed him with a slight smile and a giggle. Danny rolled his eyes.

"Hey, why did we stop the RV anyways?" Jazz asked after realizing more of what had just happened. Jack and Maddie looked at each other and gave unsure glares at the same time.

"Here we are!" Maddie said with a slight smile, gesturing her hand out to what was in front of them. Danny and Jazz leaned forward to see out the front windshield. The sun finally moved far enough out of the way and they saw a cabin standing in front of them. A giant sign on the top said Mystery Shack. It looked old and was falling apart. Animals roamed around it, one being a goat, munching on whatever it could possibly find. They looked at each other confused.

"Is this where our family lives?" Jazz asked with and eyebrow raised.

"No silly," Maddie quickly answered. "We're just stopping here for a, umm, quick pit stop!" She said making up an excuse.

"Okay..." Jazz said awkwardly.

"Now why don't you kids get out and go and get some fresh air while me and your dad get some things." Maddie smiled. Maddie and Jack stepped out of the RV and walked together towards the woods.

Stan quickly ran towards the door looking out the window.

"Okay kids, its an RV this means money!" He said gathering up things off of the floor that didn't belong there. He placed them back where they belonged and wrangled everyone up.

"Soos, Wendy, Mabel, an-" He paused as he pointed at nothing. "Where is Dipper?" He asked putting his hands on his hips.

"I think he's still with gruncle Ford." Mabel quickly said. Stan quickly typed in the code on the vending machine and closed it before anyone could see. He went down and found Dipper and Ford playing Dungeons, Dungeons, and more Dungeons. They didn't seem to be having as much fun as they used to but they were at least playing.

"Dipper, upstairs. We've got costumers." Stan said pointing upstairs. Dipper looked at Ford, Ford gave him a nod.

"We needed to end the game anyways. We've been playing all morning, i think we need to get up and actually do something." Ford smiled as he started to put the game away. Dipper smiled back and put on his hat. He went back up with Stan. Dipper then got into the line next to Mabel.

"Alright, we have Soos, Wendy, Mabel, and Dipper. The gangs all here, good." He patted Dipper on the back as Stan fixed his tie, rushing to the door as he opened it for the two people that came in. Dipper looked closer at the two. One was a girl with red hair and a headband like Mabel's, she was tall and seemed to be older then the other. Last was a boy with jet black hair wearing a white and red logo t-shirt, wore normal jeans and seemed a bit younger by not much. The girl seemed to be enjoying what she was seeing in the Shack, the boy, not so much. Dipper turned to see Mabel looking at the boy all dreamy eyed. Dipper gave her a glare and rolled his eyes, another boy for her to try to go after. Mabel went up to the boy and held out her hand.

"Hi! My names Mabel, what's yours?" She asked with a big smile. The boy hesitantly looked at her, unfolding his arms. He slowly put his hand into hers and shook it with an awkward smile.

"I'm Danny, Danny Fenton." He let go of her hand and pointed to his sister. "And that's my sister Jazz." Jazz turned around and waved with a smile.
