"Wait, you actually did it?! You got Dumpy Humpty to agree to a school's out concert?!" I hear Jackson, a member of the student council, ask through my phone as I packed my bag for the last day of school. 

"It took forever to get ahold of them and some negotiating with the school but yeah, remember to keep this between the student council, the students will be told during first and second lunch as a surprise, I'll see you at school for the final preparations bye," I hang up and sling my bag over my shoulder and head downstairs to grab a quick breakfast and head to school.

"Have a good day, sweetie!" Mom tells me as she hands me my on-the-go breakfast, and I head out the door to meet up with Danny.

 I started to tap my foot impatiently after a while.

What was taking him so long? 

A minute later, he flies out of his bedroom window.  I shake my head with a smile as I go ghost and meet him in the air. Jack, who was showering, noticed us in the air and started to yell at us.

"You! Ghost kids! I get my hands on you, I'll tear you apart molecule by molecule!" 

He then pulled out an ecto gun and shot at us as we flew off towards school. 

"Which is a perfect example of why we won't be going ghost during our Fenton family vacation," Danny chuckled.

"LISTEN TO ME WHEN I'M TALKING TO YOU!" We hear Jack yell again.

"It's Summer! Starting at 3:30, I don't have to listen to anyone for a long, long time!" Danny called back.

 I roll my eyes at Danny as he grabs my hand and we continue to fly our way to school, passing by the Amity Park Penitentiary.

The GIW approached Freakshow, who was chained up to a chair. "I hope you've been enjoying your stay with us, Freakshow," One of them taunted as Freakshow lifted his head at the two with a frown. 

"Ooo, the Guys in White. Top secret ghost catchers who can't actually catch ghosts," Freakshow remarked with a sly grin when one of them pressed a button to reveal Lidia.

"Care to revise that last statement?" 

"Lidia!" 

"No longer under your control." 

"What do you want?" Freakshow asked, his patience running thin. 

"Your knowledge of ghostly items. Anything you care to tell us about this?" 

They present a gauntlet with a red, yellow, and blue gem.

"The reality gauntlet! Never heard of it," Freakshow said, unwilling to answer questions.

"We know how you envy ghosts, and we believe this to be an object of enough spectral power to irradiate ghosts forever...Perhaps including these two!" 

The GIWs showed a photo of Danny and (s/n). 

"Ah, that reality gauntlet, I believe I've heard of it after all."

Deeming him safe enough to trust, the chains locking Freakshow to the chair were released as he made his way over to the gauntlet.

"Now then, the reality gauntlet. Hm, well, I don't know that much about it, but I believe these things play a key role, uh, may I try it on?" 

"I suppose so, doesn't work anyway..." One of them says, causing Freakshow to smile as he put on the gauntlet and inserted each gem with an explanation.

"Joy! Each of these gems has power. The red one, the gem of life. It can make anything come alive, and I believe this one is the gem of form. It can transform anything into anything else...Uh, so I've been told. Lastly, the gem of fantasy. It can make your dreams real. These gems, if touched in the proper sequence, will allow the wearer to control all reality! But the gauntlet is useless without its power source...Which I just so happen to have right here!"

Freakshow pulls off his earring and puts it in the gauntlet as the GIWs go for their guns, shouting, "Freeze it, freak!" 

"Have a little taste of the gem of life!" 

The gauntlet glows red as a red beam shot at their guns, making them alive and act like snakes wrapping and trapping the GIW. 

"Now that's what I call living!"

Freakshow notices the power had drained as he watches the light dim down to nothing. 

"Blast! If I only knew the sequence to activate all the gems, I could control all reality! Still..." 

Freakshow grabs the keycard from one of the GIW and frees Lidia, who bowed to her master with a smile. 

"This concludes our demonstration, now if you'll excuse us~" Freakshow waved goodbye as he and Lidia flew away. "What should we do with our newfound freedom? Dinner? Movie? Make myself ringmaster of all reality?"

Everyone had heard about the Dumpty Humpty concert, and everyone was clearly excited, especially after everyone noticed the stage being set up outside. The final bell rings, signifying the end of the school year, and everyone rushes out, screaming excitedly to their seats. 

"Finally, I've been looking forward to this Summer vacation forever! The five of us traveling together cross-country, seeing the sights. Kate Canaveral's Space Center in sunny Florida," Danny exclaims happily as we meet up with Logan.

He had stayed home since he wasn't enrolled in Casper High yet, but came for the concert.

"The Comic Sci-fi and Fantasy Expo in sunny San-Diego." 

"Gothapalooza in the bleak Nevada Desert." 

"Finally, the All-Around the World Cultural Festival in warm Colorado."

Sam, Tucker, and I chime in, each of us looking at our flyers for each of our attractions. 

"But tonight, we rock out at the Dumpty Humpty Concert brought to us by (y/n)," Danny says with a bow at me, and I roll my eyes when Jazz bumps into him, dropping her books.
