The Ghost Boy Of The Ghost Zone II

Chapter 4- Meeting the Ghost Family

Danny had called Pandora ahead to let her know he was bringing Sam and Tucker to the Ghost Zone. Danny sat in the driver's seat while Sam and Tucker sat next to him as he drove through the portal doors and into the Ghost Zone.

Sam and Tucker were instantly amazed by the swirling green skies, the floating islands and all the ghosts that were flying around.

"Woah! This place is amazing" Sam said in awe.

"It is but it's also a little creepy at the same time" Tucker commented.

"You really grew up in this place?" Sam asked. Danny nodded and said, "Yep. This has been my home for the past fourteen years. Welcome to the Ghost Zone guys"

As Danny drove through the Ghost Zone, Youngblood who was preparing to launch himself off a giant slingshot noticed them and called out happily, "Phantom dude! How ya been man? Want to watch me launch myself into the hearts of millions?"

"Hey Youngblood. Maybe another time and be careful not to crash into Frostbite's lair again" Danny said before taking off for Pandora's.

A few moments later they arrived at Pandora's lair and Danny parked the Spectre Speeder down in the garden area but just as Danny exited the vehicle he was suddenly tackled to the ground by something causing him to yelp in fright.

Sam and Tucker gasped and shouted as they jumped outside the vehicle, "DANNY!"

They were about to help him when they stopped and heard Danny laughing as he was being licked on the face by Cerberus, Pandora's three headed dog.

"Down boy! / Come on stop it!" Danny laughed but Cerberus kept on licking his face causing him to laugh harder.

Eventually Cerberus stopped and got off Danny as he finished laughing and said as he sat up and patted all three heads, "I'm glad to see you too boy"

He then noticed Sam and Tucker's shocked faces and said, "Oh this is Cerberus. Don't worry he's harmless but is pretty powerful when it comes to anyone who tries to steal my mother's box"

He stood up and phased the saliva off himself and then said, "Okay follow me"

Sam and Tucker pulled out of their shock and followed Danny inside the large palace. He led them to the living room waiting there was Pandora, Clockwork, Nocturne, Desiree and Ghostwriter. Danny hugged Pandora and said, "Hi mum"

"Hello son" Pandora said with a warm smile as she hugged him back with all four of her arms.

They pulled apart and then Danny said as he gestured to Sam and Tucker, "Everyone these are my friends Sam and Tucker. Sam and Tucker this is my ghost family; my adoptive mother Pandora, Uncle Clockwork, Uncle Nocturne, Uncle Ghostwriter and Aunt Desiree"

Each of them shook their hands as they said, "It's very nice to meet you / so you two are the famous Sam Manson and Tucker Foley? / I'm so glad Danny has made a couple of really good friends / nice to meet you / delighted to make your acquaintance"

"It's great to meet you guys too" Tucker said. Sam then said, "It's just really amazing and a lot to get used to as well"

"I could imagine. I mean you finding out Daniel here is half-ghost and was raised in the Ghost Zone by us for the past fourteen years must be a real overwhelming" Nocturne said.

"Desiree would you be so kind to provide a pot of tea and sandwiches and please make sure they also fit into Sam's dietary needs as I remember Danny telling us that she is an Ultra-Recyclo Vegetarian?" Pandora asked.

Desiree nodded and used her magic and suddenly some tea, cups and sandwiches appeared on the small table. As they ate and drank Sam and Tucker told them how they met Danny in school and what happened when Skulker attacked, Pandora and the others also told many stories about Danny's time in the Ghost Zone funny, sad and embarrassing moments which made them laugh. Tucker and Sam also told some embarrassing stories as well, one of them caused both Danny and Sam to blush at each other and shout they weren't a couple, but the others secretly smirked as they could tell they had feelings for each other.

A few hours later it was time for them to return back to the human world. Pandora then said, "We'll be at Fenton Works tomorrow Danny to do some training with you"

"Okay and thanks mum" Danny said as he hugged his adoptive mother and she hugged him back.

"Have a safe journey home my son" Pandora said.

Danny smiled and drove the Spectre Speeder back to Fenton Works. As soon as they entered they went upstairs to find Jack, Maddie and Jazz in the kitchen about to have dinner. Maddie smiled at them and asked, "Sam, Tucker do you two want to stay for dinner?"

"No thanks Mrs Fenton, I better head back home" Sam said. Tucker nodded and said, "Me too, it's meatloaf night and I never miss meatloaf night"

"Tucker with you every night is meatloaf night" Sam said with annoyance causing Danny to chuckle a little.

"I'll see you tomorrow guys" Danny said high fiving them before they left

After dinner Danny felt really happy as he was doing his homework in the kitchen with Jazz. His friends knew his secret and he no longer had to keep his ghost family or his ghost half hidden from them anymore. Life was looking pretty good.

Suddenly there was knock at the door. Jazz looked at the clock and saw it was almost 9 PM at night and asked, "Who could that be at this time of night?'

Jack stopped working on an invention and went to the front door and opened it to reveal a twelve year old girl with black hair tied in a pony-tail, blue eyes and wearing red shorts, a blue hoodie, converse shoes and a red beanie. She looked like a female version of Danny.

"Uh Maddie, Danny, Jazz you might want to come see this" Jack called out.

They all came and like Jack they too were shocked to see the twelve year old who looked like Danny standing in front of their door smiling at them. She then spoke, "Hi I'm Danielle. Your third cousin once removed, I ran away from home. Do you guys have any food?"
