Vlad turns on the TV and starts to flip through channels till he lands on the secret cameras watching the Fenton and (l/n) household. 

"Ah, let's see, shopping with sicafans, embarrassing celebrity arrests, Ah! Illegally spying on the Fenton and (l/n) family, my favorite! Being the mayor does have its advantages," He flipped through the screens of the living room and kitchen before landing on the Fenton lab and wondering, "Ooo, I wonder what lame invention Jack has come up with this week."

He watches as Danny, (y/n), Sam, Tucker, and Logan walk up on screen. Danny and (y/n) go ghost and pull out the map, and look it over.

Vlad's eyes widen in shock. "It can't be!" He runs towards his bookshelf and pulls out a book all about ghostly artifacts and flips to the page he needs. (All the important info is in the middle of the book, cliche +1 sin) "The Infa-map does exist, and Daniel and his girlfriend found it before I did. Drat!"

His attention turns back to the screen.

"Okay, we make a quick trip, come home, and send the map back. What's the harm?" Danny asks, looking from the map to his friends. 

"You'll go nowhere without me knowing your every move," Vlad grumbled as he pressed a button on his remote, activating a bug-like tracking device that hid in Sam's spider backpack.

"Infa-map, take us to...Uh, where do we wanna go anyway?" Danny asks, looking at us as we shrug.

"I dunno anywhere would be—"

The map starts glowing as we watch a path start moving around before we shoot through the portal. We let out a scream as we flew through a bunch of rock formations that looked like hoops and traveled over a green river. 

"According to the map, this is the River of Revulsion," I state, peeking at the map to read the name before pointing down.

"Why's it called that? Besides the smell, I mean," Tucker scrunched up his face in disgust.

A monster ghost arose from the river, burping at us, answering Tucker's question. We continued through a red and pink gorge that had white spikes all around, as Danny explained. 

"This is Carnivious Canyon, the entire place is one big MOUTH!" He shouts, flying us up and out when the place started to shake and bite down. 

We stop at a random portal.

"Not exactly the Bermuda Triangle." 

"Looks more like the Denver Dodecahedron," Tucker jokes as he starts to laugh. "A little Ghost Zone Geometry humor," He explained awkwardly as Sam made a good point. 

"Well, it's not on the path, Frostbite said not to stray from the path." 

"Oh, just for a second or two, we'll look around and jump back through before it closes, I promise," Danny says before hopping in, and I lightly shake my head before the rest of us hop in.

We land under a bed.

"Mom? Are you sure there's no ghosts under my bed?" A young boy asks nervously.

"Of course not, Billy, remember what President Roosevelt said, 'We have nothing to be afraid of but fear itself.'" We hear the mom say, but before any of us could stop him, Danny poked his head up, correcting the lady. 

"Actually, it was, 'Nothing to fear but fear itself.'" 

Both of them scream as we drag Danny back down and fly back through the portal. 

"Great, we just scarred a child for life," Sam mutters as I lightly punch Danny in the arm.

"Please don't go screwing up the past," I add in, and Danny shrugs.

"I just wanted to make sure she didn't mess up the one historical quote I remember. Welp, you guys up for finding another hidden PORTAAAL!" He starts to ask, but turns into a shout as the map starts to drag us across the Ghost Zone. (But there are so many better quotes you could've learned, like, 'Still...Not...Bitten.' Haha, she showed you jackasses haha) 

We fly through another portal into a clock tower of old Salem. We phase out and look around. 

"Cool, it's Thanksgiving!" Tuck says, looking at how everyone was dressed, and Sam corrects him. 

"No, it's Salem, Massachusetts, back in the 1600s. The paranoid villagers used to punish completely innocent people because they thought they were witches." 

"How?" Tuck asks, and I cross my arms, my voice laced with sarcasm. 

"Oh, no big deal, really. They just burn them at the stake," I point at the angry crowd marching towards the stake with a stuffed witch as they surround it with wood and set it on fire. 

"Well done, Joshua, that was your best time yet," We overhear one of the townsfolk as we slowly back away. 

"I'm a big BBQ fan, but that's going too far," Tucker remarks, and Danny chimes in. 

"Let's bail, the longer we're here, the more chance we have of messing something up."

I start to nod until I see a familiar fire in Sam's eyes.

Oh no...

"Sam, wait—" I try to stop her, but she has already started walking while shouting.

"Can't you people get a life?! HEY!"

A net captures Sam, lifting her into the air, attracting the mob's attention. Her bag falls off as we all cry out her name, Sam demanding to be let down. 

"Let me go! I'm not a witch!" 

"Don't listen to her! She is a witch!" We hear a familiar voice shout when one of them takes their hat off to reveal Vlad. "You know what we do to witches around here." 

Sam was cut down and tied up as she was paraded to the stake. 

"Ah, mob mentality, such a soothing sound," Vlad whispered as he heard the shouts of the townsfolk. 

"Danny, (y/n) hurry! You gotta save Sam!" Logan said, panic lacing his voice.
