Outside Fenton Works…
Dash is outside, running next to a brick wall and some silhouetted trees. He yells in terror as he runs.
"Zombies!" Dash yelled, running on the sidewalk next to the brick wall, the Fright Knight on his Nightmare is overseeing Dash from above. "Ghost!"
"I know that terror." The Fright Knight said, happily. "It carries the scent…" He looked down at Dash. "…of my blade."
The Fright Knight is with his Nightmare, and the horse whinnies as it swoops down towards Dash.
Dash is running away. The Nightmare's heavy hoof falls in front of him, causing Dash to stop in his tracks and scream. Dash is looking up at the head of the Nightmare and the Fright Knight.
"You, tell me." The Fright Knight said, pointing a finger at Dash. "Where are you running from?"
Dash is looking up at the Fright Knight. A green cloud billows in the distance.
"917 Maple Street." Dash said, pointing his arm behind himself for emphasis.
The mansion has a large green ecto-storm cloud overhead. Lightning strikes.
"Yes. Upon yonder hill lies…" The Fright Knight said, looking at Dash. "…the instrument of my ultimate ascendancy!" He looked at the mansion. "My Soul Shredder!"
Dash has his eyes looking at the house behind him in scared confusion. He quickly jumps over the brick wall in an effort to get away.
(Jared's POV)
Amity Park…
On the street, there is a small turquoise minivan parked next to a hydrant. The mansion with the ecto-storm is in the far distance upon yonder hill. A bolt of lightning zaps the car, with a little green smoke the car suddenly turns into a car-shaped ghoul with one eye on the windshield, four tires, dragon wings, a tail, a couple large nostrils, and fangs. Its front wheels come off the ground as it growls loudly, and it takes flight.
There is an ordinary post office box that reads 'Mail' on it in red letters. A bolt of lightning hits it, and with a bunch of green smoke, the mailbox suddenly becomes a ghoul with purple hair, red eyes and a mouth. It coughs up a letter, and looks with a little confusion.
There's an intersection with an ordinary stop sign. Another bolt of lightning hits it, and with more ghostly green smoke it becomes a ghoulish lady with red hair, green skin, a tattered green shirt and squid tentacles for legs. It growls in a feminine voice as it wanders off-screen.
On a normal street, three trick-or-treaters are running in terror and screaming: They are: a bed sheet ghost with jeans, a generic superhero, and a shirtless boy with dark green shorts and a green mask with antennae.
A bunch of ghouls are chasing them, most of them with their arms raised in a spooky fashion. These are a giant, blue reptilian monster, a woman clad in skintight black with rather large, ugly bare feet, a turquoise gelatinous thing with two solid red eyes and one red iris-type eye, a formless purple thing, the tentacle-legged woman that used to be the stop sign, a light-blue alien thing with three black, segmented eyes and bat wings, and another green-skinned woman clad in skintight black, her belly open and with light blue hair. They walk away.
There is an ecto-storm nearby. The Fright Knight rides his Nightmare into the scene, surveying the anarchy.
"This is only the beginning." The Fright Knight said, his helmet twitches in surprise as he hears a non-terror stricken voice.
"Hi, Danny." Tucker said.
"Hey." I said, standing on the street with my Crescent Rose replica in its scythe mode. "What's up?"
The Nightmare is hovering above the street as Tucker walks with me without a care up to the intersection with his fake nose and his pumpkin bucket of candy. I am still wearing my Ruby Rose costume with my Crescent Rose replica and snacking on chocolate chip cookies.
"Is that you?" Tucker asked.
"Um…" I said, standing behind Tucker when my ghost sense goes off.
The Nightmare swoops down in front of us. Tucker remains unfazed.
"Children, you may want to show a little more respect to your future ruler!" The Fright Knight said, angrily.
Tucker is staring with a bored, unfazed expression.
"Yeah, yeah, very scary." Tucker said, looking forward with wide eyes to observe more closely. "The fake horse is pretty neat, though." The Nightmare leans toward Tucker with a menacing glare, Tucker leans back to avoid it. "What's it made out of? Flaming bed sheets?"
"Flaming bed sheets would be cool." I said, looking at the Fright Knight. "But I wouldn't like it one bit."
The Nightmare's head leans back into a straight position.
"Flaming bed sheets of death!" The Fright Knight said, angrily.
"Tuck? How much time do we have left?" I asked, while Tucker was looking down at his PDA. A rapid beeping is heard. "I wanna get more chocolate chip cookies."
"Whoa!" Tucker said, lifting up his PDA and looks at the screen. "Jared, we're running late." He puts down the PDA and looks up at the Fright Knight happily. "We gotta be at the Henderson's in five…"
"Yup. I wouldn't mind more Halloween Candy…" I said, as I am unable to finish my sentence, for a huge, gauntleted hand grabs Tucker's body and my body and lifts us up into the air.
Tucker and I being lifted up by the Fright Knight on his steed.
"I am the Fright Knight." The Fright Knight said, and I am looking up at him. "The Spirit of Halloween!"
The Fright Knight unleashes some purple eye beams. I looked at Tucket's pumpkin bucket full of candy. I then looked over at my rose shaped bucket full of candy. As the purple ecto-beam hits the buckets, the entire bucket turns purple with a purple aura of energy. All the candy melts to a gray pile of burned, smoking slurry. The pumpkin is orange again, but it is charred with carbon scoring.
Tucker and I being held by the neck by the Fright Knight.
"Aww, man!" Tucker yelled, holding up his bucket of melted, burning candy.
"Damn it! I was planning on giving this chocolate to Team RWBY!" I said, holding up my bucket of melted, burning candy. "I worked hard on getting these. Cosplaying Little Red isn't easy." Tucker and I put the buckets down and we angrily glared at the Fright Knight. "Why did you do that?!"
The Fright Knight is still holding Tucker and I. Tucker is seen from behind.
"And once this ecto-storm touches every corner of this globe…" The Fright Knight said, ignoring me.
I looked down at the street. Tucker, the Fright Knight, and I are hovering in the distance. Three costumed kids, a bed sheet ghost with jeans, a Frankenstein's monster, and the ghoul with the top hat and purple cloak are standing there as a bolt of lightning zaps three news boxes, turning them into one huge, turquoise monster with four legs, horns, and a pointed tail. It opens its mouth really wide, the kids run in fear.
The Fright Knight is holding Tucker and I by the necks. I then looked over at the neighborhood and at Fright Knight's eyes.
"Now…" Fright Knight said, with his arm outstretched.
The Fright Knight lunges forward as he brings Tucker and I toward himself.
Tucker stares with disbelief, "You're not Danny, are you?"
"Now you notice!" I said, angrily.
(Open POV)
Mansion…
The ecto-storm is now so large that the stream of ecto-energy feeding it has now encompassed the whole place. Cut to Lancer, in a cobweb, stuck inside a cobweb cocoon.
"This has potential. Sticky, gross. I like it!" Lancer said, while his entire body save for his head, is inside a cobweb cocoon; his two legs are in the shape of a fish tail.
There is a large, black, menacing spider from before. It hisses, vibrating its fangs.
The spider now has a symmetrical eight eyes instead of seven, and hisses and screams as its fangs continue to vibrate. Lancer, Danny, and I are looking at the spider's mouth.
The sword is still generating ghostly energy. Danny and Sam are looking at the spider with some cautious terror.
"Danny? You might have to ask Jared to help you! You might want to end this before things spin out of control!" Sam said, worried.
"I will, as soon as Lancer declares me the winner!" Danny said, looks toward Sam, smiling as if he has control over the situation.
Lancer is in the cobweb. The behemoth spider comes up from the left, opening its mouth wider and hissing. Saliva drips from its mouth. Lancer has a surprised look. The fangs on the spider are out.
"Okay, I'm mildly impressed. A few more surprises and you might have this thing wrapped up." Mr. Lancer said.
Danny is standing next to the sword. He jerks his arm downward with victory.
"Yes!" Danny cheered, standing up straight. "I'll take 'mildly impressed'." He has his arms akimbo. "That's my cue to clean up!"
As Danny says this, his eyes drift backwards. A Fenton Foamer is on the floor. Danny's arm reaches in to grab it from the handle and pick it up. Danny picks up the Foamer and aims it forward, shooting out a stream of green foam and the foam shoots out.
Lancer is in the web with the spider still hissing at him, but not touching him. The foam lands in torrents upon the spider, it glows with a green aura for a second, and then pops back into a small, normal rubber spider. It falls down onto the floor, the spider lands with a squeak.
Sam is behind an open door. Three skeletons with green auras lunge through the doorway, making deep groans. Sam attempts to slam the door on them, but their hands stay on the door and they peek through.
Danny is holding the Fenton Foamer in both hands. He tosses it to the ground.
"Sam!" Danny said, looking at Sam who is still trying to hold the door shut. "Catch!"
As Danny says this, Sam takes her hands off the door and catches the Foamer, looking at it and smiling. Suddenly, the skeletons burst through the door, knocking Sam back. She shouts.
Sam is flying through the air and landing on the floor with some impact. She is holding the Foamer by the handle. She looks up and gasps as some low growling is heard.
Sam is looking at three skeletons creeping toward her fairly quickly. She is kneeling on the floor with the Foamer held by her two arms. Sam aims the Foamer toward with a charging sound, and the screen is engulfed in foam.
The skeletons are standing perfectly still as a wave of green foam engulfs them. When the wave passes, they are coated in foam and glowing with a thick green aura. The three skeletons pop back to normal as three rubber sacks with skeletons drawn on them. They fall on the floor with a squeak and some green clouds coming up from them. Danny looked at Samt. Sam walks to Danny with the Fenton Foamer still smoking.
"'See'"?" Danny asked, leaning back and crossing his arms. "I told ya I had everything under control. I don't need Jared's help to handle all this."
"We've got enough…" Danny said, reaching over to Sam and taking a Fenton Foamer, turning to the left and points it with his eyes closed.
Danny crouches over and aims the Foamer with one eye open. He fires the Foamer. Danny's eyes close as he leans back due to the Foamer's force.
Lancer is still in his cobweb cocoon. A giant mouse with bad teeth, red eyes and missing parts of its fur is growling at him. The foam that Danny fired covers the rat and the rat glows green; it instantly pops back into an ornately carved red plush chair. The chair lands on the floor, softly.
Danny is holding the Foamer. Sam is standing next to him. Both kids stare at the sword from afar.
Ceiling…
The Nightmare crashes through it with debris falling. The Fright Knight is riding it, and Tucker and Jared are lying on his stomach over the saddle. The horse whinnies as it flies away.
Danny is still holding the Fenton Foamer. They are both scared out of their wits as the Nightmare descends upon them.
The Fright Knight is on the Nightmare. Tucker and I are laying stomach-down on the Fright Knight's lap, also terrified.
"Hmm! That's one fancy flaming robot." Mr. Lancer said, looking at the Fright Knight.
(Jared's POV)
Tucker and I are lying helpless on the lap of the Fright Knight. The Nightmare's wings flap as it hovers up and down.
"For God's sake, Danny! Whatever you do, you can't let the Fright Knight get the damn sword!" I said, angrily.
The Fright Knight has his hands on the reins. He looks down at me.
"Silence, whelp!" The Fright Knight yelled. "Don't let your friend speak too!"
On a dining room table that is fully set with plates, goblets, and candelabra. Tucker is tossed head-first and face-up over the table.
Tucker and I land in a prone position and bounces, us yelling in pain the whole time.
Large cobweb…
Tucker and I landed on it safely in a position where our arms are out at our sides, our legs in a similar fashion.
Tucker turns to a cocoon-trapped Lancer, "Hi! Come here often?"
"Tucker? Really?" I asked, looking at Tucker. "That's the best joke you have?"
(Open POV)
Amity Park…
Danny carries a Fenton Foamer, "Tuck! Jared!"
Danny aims the foamer. It begins to charge. Immediately cut to the Fright Knight on his steed. Purple eye beams come out of his helmet as he looks down upon the room. The foamer is knocked out of Danny's arms from the force of the beams.
Danny opens his eyes with fear after being disarmed. The sword is still generating energy, the floor still cracked beneath it. The Fright Knight is on his steed, holding the reins.
"My sword…" Fright Knight said, on his horse. "…At last!"
The Fright Knight jumps off of his horse from mid-air and lunges with his arms forward, flying up into the air. Danny is running with a determined look. He looked at the Soul Shredder. Danny's hand enters from the right and grabs the hilt. The Fright Knight's flaming gauntlet grabs the hilt just above Danny's hand.
"Hah!" Danny said, his face suddenly changing as he is forcefully lifted up into the air.
The Fright Knight in the air, reaching downward and lifting up Danny hanging on his sword with little effort, and shakes Danny back and forth four times in an attempt to shake him off. Danny grunts each time as his arms feel like falling off. The Fright Knight stops as Danny holds the hilt with both arms tightly.
Large cobweb…
"That's certainly exciting…" Mr Lancer said, happily.
Tucker is looking at Lancer in disbelief, still stuck where he is.
The Fright Knight takes a couple more steps back, then swings the sword to the right with Danny on it. Lancer has wide eyes. The Soul Shredder cuts through him without a single gash. His body glows green for a second, then pops out of existence with a little green smoke. The cocoon that held Lancer is now empty and falls off the web. The Fright Knight is holding the sword. Danny is still hanging in the air with a tight grip on the hilt, he looks backward.
"Lancer?" Danny asked, hanging and turns around in mid-air. "Where'd he go?"
Classroom…
Lancer fades in, looking over his shoulder.
"Yes, it's scary." Lancer said, on a tiny rock spire with a tile floor that is glowing with a ghostly green aura. Six chalkboards with complex math formulas on them approach him on all four sides. "It's very scary!"
Lancer is with another floating chalkboard in the background. He lets out a trembling sound of fear as he jerks his arm back, but the chalk band is too strong for him and it drags him off. Lancer screams in terror. The chalkboard has the Pi sign still has its cleft reaching off, and there's an X5 below it. Lancer's hand lands on the board with the fingernails on it. Lancer is creeped out, cringing in fear as the Pi makes his fingers move downward and scratch the chalkboard.
"TOO SCARY! AAAAAH!" Mr. Lancer said, terrified.
Reality…
Danny is lifting the cocoon that previously held Lancer, looking in it for a trace of the teacher. It's still smoking a green, ghostly smoke. Tucker and Jared remain motionless on the web.
"Mr. Lancer?" Danny asked, turning around, facing the Fright Knight. "What'd you do to him?"
Danny is looking up at the legs of the Fright Knight, the sword is hanging limp across his right leg. The Fright Knight is looking out of his helmet, down at Danny.
"I sent him to where all who feel the sting…" The Fright Knight said, thrusting up the Soul Shredder. "…of my blade are sent." He is still looking down at Danny. "A dimension where his worst fears come to life!"
Web…
Tucker and Jared are still staring blankly and remaining motionless on the web, Sam is off to the back staring blankly, Danny is hunched over, also staring blankly with the cocoon in his hands.
Reality…
"'YES'!" Danny said, crouching down with fists clenched, eyes closed and smiling with victory. "This contest is SO MINE!"
Danny is in his 'I'm so gonna win this' pose. Sam is standing behind Danny, she begins to glare down at him with the evil eye. Danny turns his eyes toward her attempting to correct himself.
"Uh…" Danny said, running towards the Fright Knight. "I mean…" He continuously runs continuously and determined, and he spoke with a pretend, proud superhero voice. "Bring him back, you fiend!"
Danny is flying downward with his fists clenched and his foot outstretched downward. He swoops past the Fright Knight. Both his hands are up and in front of him in a fighting stance, as Danny closes in, the Fright Knight bats him away with one wave of his arm. Danny is falling backwards. He is screaming all the while as he plunges head-first into the drywall, creating a huge hole with several puffs of dust. His legs are hanging out of the gaping hole. The hole smokes a bit. The Fright Knight looks up where there is a red sky with the ecto-storm still on. He walks forward as he talks.
"Listen to the sound of your doom!" The Fright Knight yelled, while there is lightning striking nearby and wind is rushing past with some leaves. The Fright Knight with his glowing Soul Shredder is seen inside. "The world will be forever transformed!" Danny looked up at the Fright Knight. "And no one…"
The Fright Knight sheaths out his sword above his head.
Danny's legs are still hanging out of the hole in the wall. Danny sits up with his fists clenched.
"Not if I can help it!" Danny said, lifting himself out of the hole and takes flight.
Danny is flying towards the Fright Knight, with his ghostly tail cascading, implying he's going to ram him. The Fright Knight looks unfazed and remains motionless as Danny flies into his rock-hard abs head first with a clang! sound and a grunt. Danny stops for a second, then falls down to be between the Fright Knight's shins. Danny lands on his back, his face up and his arms out. He lifts his head and one knee up, gaping back at the Fright Knight.
"Which, apparently, I can't." Danny said, on the floor.
The Fright Knight walks up with his sword, standing in a pose that looks as if he was the victor and is ready to vanquish his opponent. He lifts up the sword with both hands on the hilt, the sword pointing downwards.
(Jared's POV)
Tucker and I both have one foot on the ground and two hands on the web, as if we just climbed out.
"Danny!" Tucker said, taking his hands off the web and runs towards Danny.
"Look out!" I said, taking my hands off the web and ran towards Danny and Tucker.
Danny is lying helpless on the floor. Tucker and I ran towards Danny and stopped when we were standing on top of Danny, our legs on either side.
"This is going to be worse than being stuck in CAL." I said, sadly. "At least there, I battled against Cynthia."
Tucker and I stand up straight and look up in terror while trying to protect our friend, only to be rewarded with the Soul Shredder swinging though our bodies without making a big, vertical gash, narrowly missing Danny's legs. Tucker and I bend down a little, glows green with sudden realization, and the two of us pop away in a puff of smoke with Danny looking terrified at his vanishing friends.
"Tucker! Jared!" Danny said, his eyes roll up, and then they fill with regret. "No!"
Island…
Tucker's nose-masked face and I am wearing my Ruby Rose cosplay in a light sky. We are standing on the sand. I looked over to see Team RWBY there and I ran up to them to hug them.
Tucker with two phone/walkie talkies in each hand, a boom box on the sand on the left, a mini-TV on a small table on the right, and a couple of other gadgets strapped to his belt. He looks down at them with love. Suddenly, they all vanish with a pop.
"Girls!" I said, looking at Team RWBY. "It's so good to see you!"
Suddenly, Ruby Rose, Weiss Schnee, Blake Belladonna, and Yang Xiao Long all vanish with a pop.
Tucker looks straight with shock, his hands now bereft of the gizmos he was holding a second ago. I looked straight with shock, my hands now bereft of Team RWBY's warmth that I was feeling a second ago.
"No phones?" Tucker asked, his eyes looking to the left and then his eyes roll to the right. "No games?"
"No Yang?" I asked, looking at the spot Yang was. "No Blake?"
I looked over at the spot Blake was and I looked over at Tucker.
"No PDAs?" Tucker asked.
"And no Weiss?" I asked, looking over at the spot Blake was. "At least I still look like my Little Red."
I looked over at Tucker's full body. We are still on the island with two palm trees.
"Ha ha! Very funny!" I said, angrily crossing my arms. "Copy the first thing I saw of the Ever After, why don't you?"
Tucker has nothing but his beret, glasses and a pair of white boxers with red polka dots. His hands attempt to cover his underpants. I looked down to see that I am no longer wearing my Ruby Rose outfit that I worked so hard on, and I am completely nude.
"And Jared, we both have no clothes?!" Tucker exclaimed, while we are small silhouettes on the tiny island that's only about 20 feet across. "All my technology…" He lifts up his arms in ranting futility. "…useless!"
"I'm hopeless without Ruby Rose!" I said, looking down at the ground. "Ugh! I hate this so much! I need Team RWBY! I miss them! I'm so useless!"
Tucker looks at me with his arms at his sides, braced. The ground opens up as a huge ray of green light bursts out of it. Tucker and I lifted our arms and crouched back for cover.
Trenzalore…
I opened my eyes then turned around to see the giant TARDIS standing in front of me with all the tombstones there. I turned around in shocked horror, gasping. Crescent Rose, Myrtenaster, Gambol Shroud, and Ember Celica are floating in mid-air. I am looking in terror-stricken disbelief at the spirits of Ruby Rose, Weiss Schnee, Blake Belladonna, and Yang Xiao Long come out of their respective weapons. I lifted my hands to my head.
"NOOOOOO!" I screamed, not knowing what to do now.
(Open POV)
Reality….
The Fright Knight is holding the Soul Shredder. He jumps up in a battle pose, one leg bended in front and one leg streamlined in the back. Both hands are above his head, holding the sword. He yells a battle cry. Danny turns to face the Fright Knight and has both his hands forming a ball of ectoplasmic energy, pouting. He then turns, blasting all the power from both his outstretched hands while giving out a grunt of effort to send out a beam. The Fright Knight is in mid-air and wielding the sword. The energy beam comes his way, he swings the sword like a baseball bat, and with a clanging sound, and it ricochets downward. Danny is floating in mid-air, appearing to be lying semi-horizontally. His own energy blast gets sent back at him and lands directly on his face. Danny begins to scream. He continues to scream as he is knocked backwards, Sam holding her book to her chest watching in fear as his back slams into a table with a box of assorted objects on it, causing a huge dust cloud. As the cloud clears, Danny has his feet hanging out of a newly formed second gaping hole in the wall.
"Doesn't anything work on this guy?" Danny asked, within the crack.
Sam is looking in terror while clenching the book to her body.
"There must be something…" Sam said, opening the book and reading it, she flips through several pages of the book as she speaks. "…in this book that tells us how to beat him!"
Sam stops turning pages as the shadow of the Fright Knight descends upon her. She looks up from the book and with a nervous expression, turns her eyes toward the Fright Knight. She turns her head and looks up at him. Sam looks at the torso of the Fright Knight, before looking at his head.
"Perhaps…" The Fright Knight said, lifting the sword over his head and behind his back. "But you will never find it!"
Sam is holding the book in front of her with her hands out. Danny approaches Sam from behind and grabs around her arms.
"Sam…" Danny said, while the Soul Shredder slashes the book vertically in two.
An intangible Sam lets go of the book as it falls away. Danny quickly flies both of them away. He is holding Sam, both are intangible.
"Darn it!" Sam said, looking back at the Fright Knight. "That bookstore…" They both turn visible again, Danny looks back. "…has a no-return policy!"
The book is torn and on the floor, two pages are torn out and nearby. The Soul Shredder is stuck wedged in the floor. The Fright Knight heaves it out behind his head with a sheathing sound. Danny and Sam land behind a chair, both of them crouched.
"I'm so sorry." Danny said, lifting his hands in a shrug. "I wanted to win so bad!" His eyes look back in regret. "But not this bad."
"Stop beating yourself up over it…" Sam said, lifting her hand and points a thumb over her shoulder. "…and start beating him!"
Sam and Danny stand up behind the chair and hold their hands on the back of the chair, Danny looking in sheer terror.
"It's the only way we'll be able to get Tucker, Jared, and Lancer back safe…" Sam said, looking at the Fright Knight.
As Sam speaks, the Fright Knight sheathes the sword out and looks at it.
Danny is flying at a strange, indescribable angle with one of hands looking like he's grasping an invisible cell phone. As Danny closes in to punch him, the Fright Knight just turns around and swats him away, Danny yelling out another cry of pain. Danny rolls across the abandoned dinner table as plates and cups go flying off of it, shattering on the floor. He tumbles in the air. Sam is on the floor, leafing through all the torn pages of her book. Danny flies past the table while yelling, some forks and a cup following after him. They crash, the shot rattles a bit.
"Come on…" Sam said, lifting up a piece of paper and reads it. "…show me a weakness…" She tosses it aside and lifts up a few more with both hands. "…a vulnerability…" Sam tosses the first page aside and leaves her arm outstretched. "…anything!"
Sam then looks with wide eyes and a wide smile as she holds out the papers in front of her with both her hands.
"Ahah!" Sam cheered, looking at a corner page. It looks yellowed and torn. There is ornate calligraphy writing on it. Sam reads it aloud. "'To cease the storm, to end the fear…" Her hands are holding the whole page. Next to the writing is a well-drawn picture of the Soul Shredder plunged into a pumpkin still on a vine with leaves. Sam is taking her eyes off the page. "'Pumpkin near'!" Sam is holding all her papers, looking up at Danny. "Danny!" She steps forward a couple steps and points to the page with one hand and holds it in out with another. Other pages litter the floor. "You've got to put the sword back in a pumpkin!"
Danny is holding a giant Grandfather Clock.
"A pumpkin?" Danny asked, looking over at Sam. "There are no pumpkins in the room."
Danny looks down. The Fright Knight jumps up, only to be bashed by Danny as he tosses down the clock, hoping it would work. Danny has a look of realization on his face.
"'No pumpkins in the room'?" Danny asked, relaxing his shoulders. "It's Halloween! Jared said that it is also his friend's birthday!" He puts a hand on his face. "What am I, an idiot?"
Sam is on the floor, waving a piece of torn paper up and down. Papers litter the floor.
"You have to find another pumpkin…" Sam said, leaning forward. "…fast!" Danny looks over his shoulder to Sam, with the goth swinging a pointing arm to the page. "That's the only thing that can stop the sword's power!"
Eyes turn to the Fright Knight. Danny looks at the Fright Knight. The Fright Knight's flaming gauntlet grabs Danny in his giant fist from the right; Danny lets out a grunt of pain as he clenches his eyes shut. The gauntlet thrusts Danny away.
Outside the house…
A tree is seen just over the green windows.
On the roof, the Fright Knight flies up on the screen with the sword and Danny in hand, some debris following him. The Fright Knight flies backwards to the right, Danny flies backwards to the left.
On a part of the house's roof, Danny floats backwards with one arm up and one arm down. Danny looks at the Fright Knight. The Fright Knight is holding the sword in front of him as the ecto-storm surges behind him. The Fright Knight swings it and yells, swinging it over his head and advancing forward to the left.
On another section of the roof. Danny floats and lands on it, seen from behind as the Fright Knight descends upon him, swinging the sword. He then lifts the sword behind his back as Danny dodges by putting his back to a windowed wall next to him, the Fright Knight yelling another battle cry and looking down to see the sword plunge into the wooden boards of the roof, some woodchip debris flying up. The Fright Knight then does a half-circle horizontal swing to get Danny, but Danny flies up to dodge the attack, the sword slashing all the glass.
On another part of the roof with the green clouds overhead, Danny does a back-flip and lands on the roof facing away from the Fright Knight. He turns around quickly as the Fright Knight flies up to meet him, Danny running. The Fright Knight lifts the sword over his head and swings, his legs lifting over his ducked-down head, Danny jumps to avoid it. Danny is now running faster, the Fright Knight shouts again and attempts the same move once more, Danny jumps up even higher. He lands with effort and jumps once more as the Fright Knight brings the sword to his side to make a circular horizontal sweep, missing Danny entirely. The Fright Knight thrusts his palm forward and puts it on the ground, stopping temporarily.
On another part of the roof, Danny flies in backwards as he goes higher and stops. His left arm is outstretched in front of him; the right hand is holding the right arm.
"Strike 6! Way to whip, Mr. October!" Danny cheered, charging a sphere of ectoplasmic energy.
Danny closes one eye as the shot blasts down-right reaching the Fright Knight.
All of a sudden, the Fright Knight looks up at Danny's shot with his eyes thinking 'Uh oh' as he is blasted in the chest, flung back into the roof of the house, making another gaping hole in the roof. Danny flies into the hole quickly to follow him.
Ceiling…
The Fright Knight bursts through the ceiling and a lot more debris falls, making an even bigger mess. He landed on the table, breaking it in half and engulfing the room in a dust cloud. Danny quickly falls on top of him feet-first. There is a terror-stricken Sam, looking upon the damage. Sam is smiling with confidence.
"C'mon, Danny." Sam said, looking at Danny. "You can do it!"
Danny extends his arm and punches the helmet of the Fright Knight, "Hah!"
The Fright Knight stands up into the shot and flings Danny down towards the floor. Danny lands on the floor on his back, his chest being pressed down by the giant hand of the Fright Knight. Danny's hand is still on the Fright Knight's hand, his eyes clenched shut. On a higher part of the room with a window, the Fright Knight stands up straight and lifts his sword over his head, yet again.
Danny is lying on the floor, looking up. He gets up and takes flight and the hilt of the sword is being thrust downward with the hand of the Fright Knight on it. The sword stops abruptly as Danny's two gloved hands press it from both sides. The Fright Knight looks up with surprise. Danny is keeping the sword still in his two hands; his back leg is being used as a friction stopper to prevent him from sliding. His aura begins to become thicker and green. Danny is holding the sword.
"To cease the storm…" Danny said, as the Fright Knight is looking down at him. Danny is using more effort and lifts the sword an inch, opening his eyes. "To end the fear…"
The Fright Knight 'closes' his eyes, looking like they vanished. He also vibrates, grunting with effort. Danny is perspiring.
"The sword must sheathe…" Danny said, lifting the sword a little more, looking at the table with Tucker's carbon-scored pumpkin trick-or-treat bag.
On the the roof of the house, the ecto-storm continues, lighting strikes.
"…In pumpkin near!" Danny yelled, finishing the verse, he lifts his arms up as far as they can go, closing his eyes and opening his mouth super-wide. His aura is now a thick white.
The Fright Knight's hand is still on the hilt of the sword, and Danny's gloves are still pressing it on both sides. Suddenly, Danny's hands grab the Fright Knight's hand. Danny's aura is a thick white. Danny thrusts the Fright Knight over his shoulder and flips him onto the ground, as the Fright Knight lands. Danny now has the sword, crouching to the right with both his hands on the grip. The force of the Fright Knight's fall was strong. Danny is still in position with his sword and his thick, white aura. In slow-motion, Danny takes flight and flies away.
Danny descends, his knees bent, holding the sword above his head, yelling a battle cry. He lands with both feet on the table, bending his knees and back as he plunges the sword into the melted, burned candy in Tucker's pumpkin. Some of the gray gunk flies out of the pumpkin as it is inserted. Suddenly, a blast of green energy comes forth from the pumpkin, flinging Danny back from the table. At a green-tinted wall, the Fright Knight pops in from the bottom, looking forward with sudden revelation.
"What?" The Fright Knight asked, looking at the pumpkin with the sword inside. It is now glowing radiantly with a white flash of light lined by green.
The Fright Knight looks at the whole pumpkin and sword, then at the floor next to his leg. Danny lands on his back forcefully, grunting in pain. He then gets his back up with his legs and hands still on the floor.
"Trick and treat, buckethead!" Danny said, looking at the Fright Knight whose eyes are wide, his hands bent in defeat. "Told ya I'd have it back by midnight."
The Fright Knight is running forward.
"No!" The Fright Knight said, coming upon the pumpkin with his sword inside and puts his hand on the hilt. "No! Nooo!"
The pumpkin and sword flash out a large flash of light with a green lining, knocking the Fright Knight away. At a section of the floor, the Fright Knight lands on it sitting down, his butt and hands on the floor. Danny has his hair being blown back and looking with an 'I hope this works' expression. Tucker's pumpkin looks different now, like it's smiling and it has a rim. Green flashes of lightning are coming out of it.
More lighting flashes around the pumpkin.
Amity Park…
Outside to the house with the swirling green ecto-storm cloud overhead and silhouetted trees, the cloud slows its swirling and reverses the rotation. At the house, a black-gloved hand holding a PDA-esque device with a green square thing and two red buttons. A vector image of a house with a vortex over it is seen.
"This ghost front is coming from the direction of…" Maddie said, looking at the green text beginning to appear on the screen over the graphic. "…917 Maple Street."
Maddie is looking at the device in her hand, Jack is also looking, his hand rubbing the back of his hooded neck.
"917 maple, eh? Hm…" Jack said, putting a finger to his chin. "I could've swore it was coming from…"
Jack turns around and points his finger up and bend it forward. Maddie turns as well.
At said spooky house with a big swirly cloud overhead, Maddie is heard gasping. The Fentons are looking at the mansion.
"That's where Danny is!" Maddie said, worried.
"Then let's shake a tail feather, momma!" Jack said, as he and Maddie strap huge Fenton Foamers over their shoulders and grab the handles. "Our boy's in danger!"
Jack and Maddie walk off. Star, without a costume on, is screaming in terror as her back is to a brick wall near an intersection. The mailbox ghoulie has its back crouched over her, its wing-arms raised, its huge mouth open and growling. Suddenly, with a little green smoke, it turns back into a mailbox, landing on the sidewalk. Star stops screaming and looks at it. A baby in a stroller is crying.
There is a green-skinned woman with tentacles for legs and red hair raising its arms in a scary pose, and a blue-skinned ghoulie that resembles with a black shirt, red hair and one taloned foot on the top of the stroller drinking out of the baby's bottle. Suddenly, the baby looks up as the green woman turns back into a blue teddy bear and the blue kid turns into a mobile. The baby looks with joy as the bottle and teddy bear fall into the stroller. He picks up the bottle and begins to feed from it.
On a street, a ghoulie suddenly turns into a ladder; it falls down as a dog runs past. A floating ghoulie that looks like a man wearing a white poncho that serves as a ghostly tail turns into a TV, it falls down to the street below and shatters. A green-haired, wide-shouldered ghoulie with no legs becomes a car parked in the street.
Another ghoulie becomes a lamppost, a bat-winged woman flies away and becomes a porcelain bathtub, and a blue-haired woman in skintight black clothes becomes a lamppost with a sign that reads 'Elm'.
House…
A ray of green light comes up from the whole house. Debris is coming up with the ray of light. The head of the Nightmare is looking scared. It whinnies. The whole Nightmare is crouching down on the ground as its bat wings, reins and tail are being sucked upwards. It whinnies and is caught in the updraft. At a higher part of the room, the Nightmare comes up from the bottom and is sucked into the vortex, and then it disappears from view. Danny and Sam are on the floor. They look up with wide smiles. Their hair is being blown up by the updraft.
"It's sucking everything into the Ghost Zone! It's working! Aagh!" Sam said, while she is slowly being carried upwards.
"Sam!" Danny said, turning and grabbing Sam by the arm, Sam looks down at Danny as her body is being forced up, her legs towards the portal.
Sam has a worried face. Danny has a determined face with his arms holding Sam. He pulls Sam downwards. On the floor, Danny and Sam are on their knees. Danny is holding Sam wrapped in one of his arms, the other arm turning intangible and phasing through the floor. At a pipe, Danny's intangible hand phases through the floorboards above and it latches onto the pipe. It regains its color.
"I will have my vengeance!" The Fright Knight said, thrusting his hands downwards. "Mark my words!"
The helmet of the Fright Knight and the flaming purple cloak behind him disappears. The helmet begins to break off into pieces and get sucked up by the updraft. The Fright Knight's headless body is slumping over. It is within a column of surging green light. The armor is sucked up through a gap in the ceiling like an alien abduction.
Outside the house…
The clouds are swirling, but are thinner. The column of green light coming from the house stops thin and stops radiating, the clouds swirl out of existence. Green lightning comes from the pumpkin with the sword. Suddenly, the sword and the pumpkin close in on themselves and vanish in a small flash of light. The green tint of the room fades back to a nice blue.
(Jared's POV)
At a part of the room in front of a broken window, Tucker and I popped back into existence and landed with our feet on the floor. Tucker is without his nose-mask as I am back wearing my Ruby Rose cosplay and holding my Crescent Rose replica. Tucker reaches into his pocket with hope that there's something inside it and pulls out a PDA and smiles.
"Yes!" Tucker said, holding the PDA high with both hands. "Sweet beautiful technology…" He hugs it to his face. "…you're mine once again!"
Tucker retains his pose, Lancer pops back into existence and lands with both feet on the floor, dazed.
"How did it go?" I asked, looking at Danny and Sam looking with stunned realization.
"It went well." Danny said, clenching his eyes and transforming back into Fenton. "Is the reason you went with Tucker…"
"To keep an eye on the pumpkin. Yeah."
Danny leans back with an 'innocent' smile, and Sam looks up with an 'innocent' smile as well.
"Smart." Sam said, happily.
Lancer turns around to face them. Danny is smiling with his mouth open. It quickly melts away as Lancer approaches him.
"Mr. Fenton, I have to say that was the most horrifying thing I have ever seen." Mr. Lancer said, looking at Danny.
Danny, not knowing what to think, blinks his eyes.
"You win!" Mr. Lancer said, suddenly widening his eyes and smiling.
Danny has his hands behind his back, Lancer is nearby. Danny takes out his hands in fists and celebrates.
"Haha!" Danny said, raising his arms in joy, closing his eyes and opening his mouth super-wide. "Yes!"
Danny puts his hands down and Lancer turns around.
"Take that, Tetslaff!" Mr. Lancer said, walking away to his colleague.
Danny relaxes his arms as Sam walks towards him, the two of them share a hug.
Danny looks at Tucker and I. Then he looks with surprised realization. He lowers his eyebrows as his eyes look to the floor, ashamed. Then he looks up with his eyebrows tensed, determined. He calls out.
"Mr.Lancer?" Danny asked, running up to Lancer. "Wait up!"
Lancer is still walking. He swoops his hand across his face.
"I can see it now, Tetslaff." Mr. Lancer said, clenching his fists and blows a raspberry.
Lancer is walking to the wall, seen from behind. Danny races up to follow him. Lancer turns to face him.
"Mr. Lancer, wait." Danny said, straightening up. "I have to be honest." He looked to the right, eyelids hanging low. "I-I cheated."
Lancer is lowering his eyebrows, "Cheated?"
Danny lifts an arm, his palm lying flat.
"Well I borrowed--eh--uh…" Danny said, lifting the other hand, palm lying flat. "…stole…" He brings the arms to his sides, they are still up. "…some of my parent's technology."
"Do you mean this stuff?" I asked, causing Danny's eyes to jump and Lancer had a fist clenched. I walked up with a Fenton Foamer in hands, Tucker and Sam followed. "The Fenton Foamer?" Danny's head turns to face me. "It causes a psychosomatic reaction in whoever's exposed to it…"
I looked over at Sam and Tucker. Danny and Sam both look with 'innocent' expressions.
"Yeah! That!" Danny said, excitedly.
"Daniel, the good news for you is…" Mr. Lancer said, looking up with eyes closed and smiling. "…I don't care." He looks to the right and lifts a hand. "I have two scary rooms…" Mr. Lancer puts down that hand and lifts the other, looking at his watch on his wrist. "…and it's midnight!"
"In other words, Danny, you don't get detention." I said, looking at Danny.
Lancer lifts both his arms and celebrates, "Let the party begin!"
At a purple door, Lancer opens them up from the inside with an attitude of gratitude.
"Nobody move!" Jack and Maddie said, at the same time.
Suddenly, Lancer looks with shock as he is knocked back by an onslaught of green foam. Maddie and Jack are firing their bazookas, Maddie looks intently, Jack looks with a wide, open-mouthed smile. As they hear Lancer's screaming, they look with regret and foam stops coming from their bazookas, the foam littering the ground.
"Damn it!" I said, looking at my ruined Ruby Rose cosplay. "It's ruined…"
A disappointed Lancer has green foam on his head. It drips. Tucker, Danny, Sam, and I have wide-eyed looks and more foam all over them dripping down. A disappointed Lancer with green foam on his head. It drips. Tucker, Danny, Sam, and I have wide-eyed looks and more foam all over them dripping down.
"Oh…" Ms. Tetslaff said, nearby.
Everyone, including me, looks to the left.
Outside, Tetslaff is dressed as a witch carrying a broom. A pirate boy carries a grocery bag of Halloween-y things. A Frankenstein boy behind him holds a yellow sign reading 'Happy Halloween'. A witch girl behind him has two pizza boxes in one hand. A girl in a slick black cat suit carries another grocery bag. The boy in the red suit with the purple cloak and top hat is behind her.
"'Early oil spill'." Ms. Tetslaff said, turning to the kids. "Come on." They all walk off proudly and the scene pans right. "Let's get out of here."
They walk away, passing Jack and Maddie, who look with realization, holding their bazookas at their sides. Danny walks up to Lancer.
"Changed my mind. Dash wins. I'll see you in detention, Fenton." Mr. Lancer said, walking off.
The Fentons are in the doorway, they look at one another as Lancer storms out between them. Jack and Maddie look back at him.
"What?" Jack asked, turning and looking angry. "This was some sort of anti-detention scheme!"
Danny, Tucker, Sam, and I are still foamed. Jack and Maddie come upon us menacingly, holding bazookas, arms akimbo.
"Well, you're in a lot of trouble, Mister!" Jack yelled.
Danny is looking up sadly. His hair is full of foam.
"You don't know…" Danny said, slumping down, miserable. "…the half of it."
(Open POV)
Casper High School cafeteria…
Danny is seated and looks straight ahead. Kids are looking nearby. There are two banners, the left one reading 'win' and the right one reading 'Go!'
"Salt." Sam said, coming in from the left, holding salt.
Danny takes it with his other arm, without turning. Sam turns around and leaves.
Tucker comes in from the right with pepper, "Pepper."
Danny takes it with his other hand, without turning. Tucker turns and leaves.
Sam comes in from the right once more, this time placing a clothespin on Danny's nose, "Clothespin."
Sam turns and leaves. More of the table has Dash's hands place a covered dish on it. Danny looks down upon it. One of Dash's hands lifts the handle on the cover, revealing the torn, smelly underpants with a stream of stink coming out from it. The underpants reads 'Dash' on the label.
"Bon Appa-Tighty Whitey, loser!" Dash yelled.
Danny has the clothespin on his nose. He lifts the underpants with his hand and looks at it. He groans as his face goes all green and his cheeks bulge with puke. Purple sickly-stars flash in front of him.
