Don't ask me why with the title. Song thing

   Dani grinned as she held on to Stephanie's fur. The wolf seemed to have a unique way of transportation.

She flowed through the air in swift movements. Her fur would sometimes bristle as if it was on fire, but it didn't burn Dani's hands.

Dani giggled when Stephanie jumped and tucked her legs in. They flew through the thick air of ectoplasm, leaving a small trail of fire behind them. "This is awesome."

Steph landed and turned her head to look at her. "It is.... Hey Dani?"

The girl hummed. "Yeah?"

"Am I a ghost?"

Dani paused. She nodded. "But you're a cool ghost." She patted Stephanie's head.

The other snorted and smiled. "Ok. Then. Where are we going?"

"To a friend of mine. She can help us with the ship." Dani pointed back to the aircraft flying behind them.

Stephanie shuddered. "That thing gives me the shivers. I don't like it."

Dani nodded. "It's feeding on ectoplasm. That's the problem we're trying to fix."

Steph gasped. "Can it hurt you?!"

Dani smiled. "Yeah but don't worry. It can't reach us if we're this far."

Stephanie wasn't relieved. She bared her teeth at the thing. "Why does it exist?! It should be ripped to shreds and destroyed and why is it even here? Do the humans not know about it or are they just stupid."

Danny flew up next to them. Dorian sat on his back, resting. "Hey I heard the words 'humans' and 'stupid'. I know that is nothing new but why."

Dani grinned. "You're learning English quickly!!" She exclaimed at her friend.

Stephanie huffed.

Dani frowned. "But that is actually a good question. Hey Danny?"

Danny hummed.

"You told me about the filters on the ship but how did your parents not know about them in the first place?"

Danny sighed. "Because the Guys In White put them there. They funded this trip and messed with my parents' equipment. I think they're trying to destroy the Ghost Zone from the inside. It could have worked. My parents wouldn't have stopped it. I mean, they didn't know that the filters were designed to suck all the energy from the Ghost Zone up so they wouldn't be worried. If it weren't for me being halfghost they wouldn't have figured out how strong the filters were."

Dani scowled and cursed the GIW. Stephanie raised her eyebrows as she leapt again. "Who are the Gays in Wax? And isn't this place too big to all be sucked in by that piece of junk back there?"
