The Phantom Twins: Season 3

Living Large

"Man! I am so dead" Danny said wearily as he and Dayla phased into his room feeling really tired after a long day at school.

They changed back into their human forms as Sam opened the door and she along with Tucker and Andrew entered the room. Danny plopped down lazily on his bed, Dayla took the beanbag, Tucker sat on Danny's desk chair, Sam sat on Danny's chest that was sitting at the end of his bed and Andrew sat on the spare chair.

"Who knew learning stuff and groping for the approval of our peers could be so exhausting" Danny groaned.

"7:30 to 3:30? School's like an eight hour day" Tucker then groaned.

"Not to mention that every day is a battle especially when Danny and I have to battle something" Dayla said. "Is this it guys? Is the fun over? Is life just downhill from here?"

"No way! Life will get a heck of a lot better when someone pays us to work our butts off" Tucker said with a smirk.

The door then opened and Jack came walking in with a grin as he asked, "Hey youngsters! How was school?"

"Well it was pretty exhaust..." Danny began to say when Jack cut him off, "That's super! Your mother and I need the help of five strong hands down in the lab so let's hop to it"

"How much are you paying?" Danny asked hopefully.

Jack crossed his arms and said, "I pay you to mow the lawn. This you'll do for the love of science"

"We don't really get a choice in this do we dad?" Dayla asked.

Jack didn't lose his grin and said, "Nope and that's what makes it fun"

They all followed Jack to the lab where Maddie was waiting for them, in front of them was some sort of makeshift machine connected to an exercise bike, a small monitor and a smaller but large generator. Jack placed Danny and Dayla at the generator and placed their hands on it.

"Danny and Dayla, you both need to lean all your weight into that photon generator. It refuses to generate photons unless someone tips it a bit to the left" Jack explained.

"Our equipment is a tag persnickety" Maddie said. She then gave Sam a head set and a small satellite dish. She raised her arms and said, "Sam just aim your satellite dish into the sky above the Neo Taco sign. That's where StarNet 7 is in orbit synchronization with our lab"

"But..." Sam began to protest when Maddie snapped, "Quiet! Don't speak or move a muscle for the next thirty-seven and a half minutes!"

"Man! Fenton Works sure is low fi" Tucker said looking at all the technology around the lab.

"Nonsense" Jack said proudly. He then gave Tucker a coffee mug that said World's Best Mum and said, "Here! Take this World's Best Mum coffee mug and pound it on top of the monitor whenever you it goes all fuzzy"

Tucker watched the monitor and saw the screen go fuzzy, he then slammed the top of it with the mug and it went back to normal. He smiled and said, "Hey! I'm a real live scientist!'

Jack then turned to Andrew and picked him up, he then placed him on the exercise bike and said, "Andrew I want to peddle as fast as you can on this bike"

Andrew at first looked at him with confusion but then started peddling really fast, there was a whirring noise and at the top of the machine electricity could be seen. Andrew then asked, "So what's all this supposed to do?"

"If all goes well it should evaporate every ghost being within my cell phone calling area with no roaming charges" Jack said.

All five of them gave each other nervous and frightened glances, since Danny and Dayla were part ghost it could affect them badly. But before Dayla could say anything to them, they heard the doorbell ring from upstairs. Andrew stopped his peddling and they all looked up at the roof wondering who was at the front door.
