(Jared's POV)
Memory Tardis…
A mash-up of various Tardis themes and contents. There is a multi-coloured coat with a cat badge before I looked over to see a no-longer svelte sixth Doctor sitting reading a book.
"You two there, who are you?" The Doctor asked, looking between Peri and I.
"It's me, Spaceman." I said, happily.
"Jared?"
"Yup. I think my fellow American is over there." I said, grabbing Peri's hand and dragging her over to the Doctor and I.
"Jared! Don't do that! Doctor! Is that really you?" Peri asked, letting go of my hand.
"Peri?" The Doctor asked.
"Yeah." Peri said, happily.
"After all these years! Oh…" The Doctor said.
The Doctor, Peri, and I did a group hug.
"Doctor!" Peri said, excitedly.
"Ah, let me look at you. The Warrior Queen!" The Doctor cheered.
"Doctor, it's so good to see you again. You got old."
"Mmm. And bigger. And beardier."
"Oh. Jared, how do you know this version of the Doctor? You never traveled with us."
"That is true. But I know your adventures." I said, happily.
"Jared, when did you meet Peri?" The Doctor asked.
"When I did some missions for S.O.N.G. That is how I met her."
"You were doing favors for Symphogear. Oh, time marches on, Peri, Jared, even for a Time Lord. It really has no respect. But the two of you... you've filled your years with adventures and legends in the making!" The Doctor said, looking between Peri and I.
"You heard about that, did you?" Peri asked.
"I've heard minstrels sing songs of the Warrior Queen from the Scorpion Nebula to the outer rings of the Medusa Cascade. Some of them were very catchy. Bom-bom-bah!" The Doctor said, cheered. "And I've also heard minstrels sing songs of the Storyteller from Knowhere to Gamindustri. Some of them were incredibly catchy. Do do do do do do, do do do do!"
"The Triumph." I said, leaning against the TARDIS console. "One of my favorite songs from RWBY."
"I'm glad you approve of me." Peri said, smiling.
"Ah…" The Doctor said, sadly.
"I've done things a girl from Fells Point could never dream of."
"Well, Baltimore is nice." I said, frowning. "And Peri, we lived the lives intended for us."
"Fair point, Jared." The Doctor said. "By time, Peri, from that day in Lanzarote."
"Our stories are far from over, right?"
"Exactly."
"For the three of us, Doctor, Jared." Peri said, looking between the Doctor and I.
"Maybe. Maybe. I was wondering what had brought you here."
"I was kind of wondering that myself. I mean, it looks like the Tardis, but…"
"Much more on the inside?" The Doctor asked.
"Yeah."
"Isn't it cozy here?" I asked, leaning against the multitude of TARDIS consoles. "This is a remembered TARDIS, Peri. Or a Memory TARDIS. I love it. It feels all nostalgic to me and makes it a bit giddy."
"Jared's right." The Doctor said. "All those stories we shared, their memories live on here, like... like ripples on an eternal pond, forever moving, forever repeating. And sometimes, those memories come back to us through space and time when we least expect them."
"And that's how I got here now?" Peri asked.
"Peri, you've always been here. You never left the TARDIS. Not really." I said, smirking. "And I never left the TARDIS at all. I have been around for four of the Doctor's regenerations."
"And the Tardis never forgets. And neither did I." The Doctor said, looking at Peri.
"Doctor, I didn't forget you either." Peri said, sadly.
"No."
"Every night, I would look up at the stars and wonder which one you were spinning round in the Tardis, and I'd ask myself, 'Will I ever see him again?'"
"What? Cricket bat and celery stick?" I asked. "I saw him and Tegan a while back. It was good."
"Oh. That is how you first discovered the remembered TARDIS, Jared." The Doctor said. "And here we are, older and wiser. Three adventurers and friends reunited across light years and time. Peri, it is so good to see you again."
"And you too. I guess we made a whole lot of memories, though, if I'm honest, some I'd rather forget." Peri said, letting out a sigh.
"You mean Sil and Kiv? Not the most likeable lifeforms in the universe."
"You can say that again." Peri said, scoffing.
"But Peri, your adventure on Varos was the starting point to becoming the Warrior Queen!" I said, excitedly.
"Yeah, I guess. In a way."
"Oh, there's no doubt. Good can come from even the darkest of places." The Doctor said.
(Open POV)
Amity Park…
There is a sign outside of town that says 'Amity Park- A Safe Place to Live!'. And in town, there is a ghost squid, growling. It flies a few feet away. Jared flies up in the air to meet the ghost squid. The ghost squid sprays ink that Jared narrowly escapes and dodges more ink.
"Hey! Be careful with the ghost ink! We're not playing Splatoon!" Jared yelled, brandishing the Fenton Thermos, he sucks the ghost squid inside.
The cellphones ring. Jared and Danny then pull out their cellphones.
"Wolf thing. Big ghost wolf thing! Down by the Nasty Burger!" Sam said, terrified.
A sign says 'Nasty Burger'. In the alley beside the Nasty Burger, Sam is looking at a giant ghost wolf. It walks up, growls at her, and starts opening its mouth. Sam screams. Suddenly, Danny Phantom and Jared Shay come flying to the rescue. Danny pounces on the ghost wolf.
"Down, boy! Don't eat that; It's a vegetarian!" Danny said, sucking the ghost wolf inside. "What a night. Everytime I turn around, there's another ghost!"
The cellphones ring. Danny and Jared then pull out their cell phones.
"Danny! Jared! Ghost snake! By the park!" Tucker said, running down a sidewalk near a park bench looking ahead and holding his cellphone.
Tucker was tripped by his backpack strap. He is lying on the sidewalk as he looks down at a bunch of technological gadgets lying in front of him.
"I gotta stop carrying so much geek gear; it's gonna be the death of me." Tucker said, seeing a large shadow looming over him trembling. He gets up on one hand and one forearm, widening his eyes in alarm at a giant ghost snake. "Literally!"
The Ghost Snake is going to attack Tucker. Danny and Jared tackles Ghost Snake and they fly away, with Jared sending electrical shocks at the Ghost Snake.
"Where are all these ghosts coming from?!" Danny exclaimed.
"Don't know. Gah. There's so many ghosts…" Jared said, sadly.
(Jared's POV)
Fenton Works…
At the Fenton Portal, whose doors open up. A little green ectoplasmic blob comes out of the portal, laughing maniacally. Doors close in. Doors open up and another little green ectoplasmic blobs comes out of the portal, laughing maniacally. Doors close in. The doors open up and another little green ectoplasmic blobs comes out of the portal, laughing maniacally. At the console that has a genetic lock and a red button on it. A thumb presses the red button twice.
I looked over at Jack, Jazz, and Maddie then at the Fenton Portal.
"We sure have been dealing with Friday the 13th so much lately." I said, while Jack presses thumb at the genetic lock and ghosts keep coming out of it. "But there has been so much ghosts."
"Yeah." Jazz said, walking over to me. "Jared, you look really stressed out."
"Hunting ghosts. That's what."
"I know."
"I told ya this genetic lock was a great invention. It's a perfect way to prevent any unauthorized access to the Ghost Zone." Jack said, looking at the Fenton Portal where the ghost snake are standing behind the ghost portal and in front of several other ghosts and Ember.
(Open POV)
Ghost Zone…
There is a line stretching from the ghost portal on the bottom level all the way to the high level. A motorcycle revs, driving to catch up to the back of the line. Two ghosts are riding the motorcycle.
"You sure we're gonna make it?" Kitty asked.
"Oh relax, will ya? Trust me. Shadow." Johnny 13 said, as a black shadow with a face appears under the motorcycle. "Keep the portal open."
Shadow takes form and flies away from the motorcycle as it continues down the path. Shadow flies ahead to the portal. The portal doors are sliding shut, but Shadow fills the doorway just before they close, opening it back up.
"I don't know if using that stupid bad luck shadow of yours is a good idea, Johnny." Kitty said.
Johnny looks back at Kitty, then looks ahead and smirks. He revs the engine and races forward; Kitty looks scared as they increase speed. As they approach the portal Shadow releases its hold on the door and flies through. Johnny and Kitty drive through the closing portal. Johnny and his bike make it all the way through but the portal doors close on Kitty at the last second, Kitty shrieks, yanking her off the bike and shocking her.
"Kitty!" Johnny 13 said, worried.
Kitty stands up, arms wrapped around herself as she flickers, struggling to stay whole, "I knew it. I can't maintain my form. I'm split between here and the Ghost Zone."
Johnny looks up in shock.
Kitty is teleporting her jacket, scarf and ring towards Johnny, "I spread my energy into my stuff. Get some girl to wear them so I can reform around her to make up for the body you fried!"
The clothes land in Johnny's lap. He looks up at Kitty guiltily.
"I gotta go back to the Ghost Zone before I completely fall apart. Don't forget me Johnny. Don't forget me." Kitty said, sighing, and she fades away, returning to the Ghost Zone.
"You got it baby. I'll find you a new host. I promise." Johnny said, and he rides off.
FentonWorks lab…
"Now that I've installed this genetic scanner the only way to open the Fenton portal is if someone in the family does this." Jack said, putting his thumb on the fingerprint scanner.
The portal opens and Johnny rides out none too quietly.
"Jazz, I better get back to Danny and the others." Jared said, walking over to Jazz to hug her. "They might need me."
"Yeah." Jazz said, letting go of Jared as she watched the fanboy walk away. "Good luck."
Jared is walking up the stairs to be out of the lab.
Jack turns around, "Suffering spooks! Where's Danny? And where did Jared go? I'll bet they'd love this."
"Oh. Well I'm sure wherever they are, it has nothing to do with ghosts at all." Jazz said, happily.
Johnny is hiding in the corner of the lab. He looks up and spots Jazz.
"Hello, new girlfriend." Johnny 13 said, smiling.
Amity Park…
There is a poster of a carnival and on the sidewalk, Tucker is walking alongside a girl.
"I was kinda hoping we could hit a movie or something." Tucker said, looking at the girl.
"Okay." The girl said.
"Alright but I'll have you know I'm persistent—Wait. Did you say okay?" Tucker asked.
The girl's smile fades as Tucker reaches into his bag and pulls out a handful of beeping tech.
"Do you want to beam me your phone number? We can share ringtones." Tucker said, while his eye twitches.
"No thanks, Techno Geek." The girl said, walking off.
"Urg. I am not a Techno Geek!" Tucker yelled, slamming down the items in his hands, frustrated. He looks down at the smoking pile and screams. He bends down and pulls the broken pieces into his arms. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry."
(Jared's POV)
Elsewhere in Amity Park, Danny Phantom and I are still fighting ghosts. A tail whacks Danny into me.
"Ugh. Come on. We've been fighting ghosts for 24 hours. Can't one be easy?" Danny asked, looking over at me. "How's my family?"
"They're good." I said, while a ghostly cobra slithers up to Danny and I. Danny and I turn intangible just before it strikes. "And they're safe."
"That's good." Danny said, flying up behind the ghost and aiming the Fenton Thermos at it. "So long, slinky." He successfully captures the ghost, but immediately his ghost sense and my ghost sense goes off. "Oh great. One more to go."
"And that's the ghost that escaped the Fenton Portal." I said, as Danny and I turned around to see Johnny driving down the street behind him. "He sped through so fast while Jazz was covering for me."
"Of course." Danny said, and I looked down at Kitty's ring on Johnny's finger. Kitty's face appears on the gem. "What else is new?"
"What's taking so long?" Kitty asked.
"I'm trying to find the right girl for you to take over." Johnny 13 said, talking to Kitty in the ring and his face is distorted in the ring's reflection. "If I've gotta look at her face for all eternity, I wanna make sure I like it, dig?"
Johnny continues driving and Danny and I fly up beside him.
"Hey. I'm sorry to tell you this. But I think you're speeding." I said, sadly.
"I'll show you speeding. Shadow, attack!" Johnny 13 said, angrily.
Johnny's shadow takes form and tackles Danny and I, allowing Johnny to escape. While Danny and I are knocked down on the street, Shadow flies by a nearby lamppost and cuts the metal, causing it to fall down. Danny and I roll out of the way to avoid getting hit, but the Fenton Thermoses are smashed in the process, releasing all of the ghosts we caught earlier. Danny stands up holding his broken thermos and I stand up, holding my broken thermos.
"Ugh. Of all the rotten luck." Danny said, annoyed. "Jared, did you know this would happen?"
Johnny is on a rooftop watching our misfortune.
"Maybe. Before this, I was on the Memory TARDIS. I was talking with the Doctor and Peri." I said, sadly. "Of course I'd forget about all this."
Danny and I glare at Johnny but don't go after him.
Amusement park….
I am walking with Danny, Sam, and Tucker.
"And because of some stupid shadow, Jared and I had to spend another night rounding up the same ghosts again!" Danny said, angrily.
"Jazz had to cover for us again!" I said, crossing my arms. "It's even more annoying that all this would cause Noise to spawn too. I had to literally call Hibiki and the others to stop Noise from appearing here."
"I don't know how to fight Noise at all. Good thing you were able to call them."
"Maybe you could do a web search on shadow ghosts on your PDA." Sam said, frowning.
Tucker smiles and pulls out his PDA. An arm reaches in and takes it from his hand.
"That could work." I said, looking over at Dash and Kwan.
"Check me out. I'm Tucker Foley. Styling large with the latest in Techno Geek fashion." Kwan said, waving around the PDA.
"Dude, you do that a little too well." Dash said, happily.
Kwan looks at the PDA in his hand and after a momentary pause, he drops it like it's dangerous.
"Aaaah! Techno Geek is contagious!" Kwan said, running off.
"Alright, that's it!" Tucker said, shoving the PDA in Sam's hand. "Here, you take it! I'm sick of being labeled! By the end of the day nobody's gonna call Tucker Foley a Techno Geek anymore."
Tucker stalks off and Danny, Sam, and I run after him. We run past Jazz who is standing at a booth filled with clown paintings.
"Sure he's smiling on the outside, but I can sense the tortured soul just below the surface." Jazz said.
"No." The clown said, disheveled, looking down sitting on the ground. "He's smiling on the inside, too."
The clown burps loudly. Johnny is riding his motorcycle on the telephone wires.
"There! That's her!" Johnny 13 cheered, aiming the ring face at Jazz. "The kid of the big fat idiot who fried your body."
"She'll do for now." Kitty said, inside the ring.
"Shadow. Truck!" Johnny 13 yelled.
Shadow flies ahead. Danny, Sam, and I are walking behind Tucker.
"Maybe I could be the funny guy. Maybe the smooth. Maybe…" Tucker said, getting punched in the face, cutting him off.
"Check it out. He just walked under a ladder, into your fist." Kwan said, happily.
"Hey. We should call him Bad Luck Tuck." Dash said, smiling.
Dash and Kwan get ready to start a fight.
"What? No!" Tucker said, backing up. "I am not bad luck!"
Tucker stops walking, standing at the back of a truck. Shadow flies into the front of the truck.
"Nope. I know what bad luck is." I said, while Shadow is in the truck and it looks around confused before spotting the parking brake.
Shadow pulls the parking brake up, breaking it off. Tucker walks back slowly and as he reaches the rear bumper the truck rolls away. He notices the empty space and feels around behind him. Tucker gasps, looks back and sees the truck rolling away. Shadow flies out of the truck. The truck continues to roll through the carnival grounds.
"Shit." I said, looking over at Danny, Sam and Tucker. "Just what we need. More bad luck. Danny, let's split up."
Danny's eyes glowed green and my eyes glowed blue.
The truck is driving past empty tents. It crashes into the base of the rollercoaster, sending a chain reaction through the frame all the way up to the apex of the coaster where the track splits in two, sending the cars flying through the air. I flew in, just as it went off the track.
"I got you!" I said, catching a man as he falls out of his seat, and the man catches two kids in his own arms. I struggle to hold on to them and look back with a gasp as I see a kid falling. "Crap."
The kid screams as he falls, but lands safely in a ball pit, "Hurray!"
I breathed a sigh of relief. Danny and I heard a loud scream.
"Jazz!" Danny said, looking over and seeing the empty roller coaster flying through the air headed straight towards Jazz. "Jared! Help the innocents!"
"Right." I said, landing down onto the ground placing the man and the two kids there. "I will."
Jazz is holding cotton candy and looking stunned at the oncoming cars. As they approach, Johnny speeds by on his bike and grabs Jazz's arm, leaving her cotton candy to fall to the ground. The roller coaster cars crash into a mess of metal and dust where Jazz was standing. Johnny is skidding to a stop on his bike.
"I…You.." Jazz said, smiling at Johnny and Johnny smiles back.
Danny and I come running over.
"Jazz, are you alright?" Danny asked.
"I'm fine. Thanks to…" Jazz said, looking at Johnny.
"Johnny. The name's Johnny." Johnny said.
Jazz stares dreamily at Johnny and bats her eyelashes.
"Shouldn't the two of you be somewhere else?" Johnny asked, looking between Danny and I.
"No. Shouldn't you?" Danny asked.
"Shouldn't you be asking her little brother and her parents for permission?" I asked, crossing my arms.
Danny, Johnny, and I lean in face-to-face glaring at each other.
Jazz walks up to stand between the three of us.
"Danny. Jared. Don't be rude. Hi. I'm Jasmine. Jazz." Jazz said, looking over at a mirror of the motorcycle. "Ugh. I look like I was almost run over by a rollercoaster."
"We…Excuse me, I mean I think you look great, Kitten. But here, I'd bet you'd look great in this." Johnny said, offering Jazz Kitty's scarf.
"Her name's not Kitten." Danny and I said, simultaneously with Jazz.
"My name's not Kitten." Jazz said, simultaneously with Danny and I.
Jazz nudges Danny and I.
"But you can call me that if you want." Jazz said, looking at Johnny.
"Ugh. He really knows how to piss me off." I said, rolling my eyes.
"Ride home, Kitten?" Johnny asked, walking over to his motorcycle to climb onto it.
Jazz ran over to the motorcycle, climbed on it, and put on a helmet. Johnny and Jazz ride off. Tucker walked over to a ladder.
"Bad luck Tuck! Bad luck Tuck!" The football jocks cheered.
"Well at least they're not calling you Techno-geek anymore." Sam said, letting out a sigh.
Fenton Works…
"He's here?" Danny asked, looking over at me.
"Yup." I said, taking out chocolate chip cookies to snack on them.
"Oh man, Jared, that can't be good."
"You do have a last name, don't you?" Jazz asked, sitting on the couch with Johnny.
"Yeah, but everybody calls me Johnny 13. I kinda got this reputation for being…unlucky." Johnny said, sadly.
"Well, you were pretty lucky for me."
"Here. Try this on." Johnny said, handing Jazz Kitty's jacket.
Johnny and Jazz lean in to kiss. Danny and I come in.
"Guys, time and a place." I said, slamming the door, interrupting Johnny and Jazz.
Danny, Johnny, and I glare at each other.
"Hey. Ain't you got a place in here where we can be alone? Like a basement?" Johnny asked, looking at Jazz.
"As a matter of fact I do. Come on." Jazz said, grabbing Johnny's hand to lift him off the couch.
Fenton Works lab…
Jazz activates the portal.
"Cool." Johnny said, smirking.
"No it's not. But at least my brother and his friend can't bug us here." Jazz said.
"Jasmine Fenton! You know you're not allowed to bring unauthorized personnel down here!" Jack said, nearby.
Jack, Maddie, Danny, and I ran down the stairs to enter the lab.
"You know better." Maddie said, frowning.
"You were about to let some strange punk activate the Fenton Portal?" Danny and Jack asked, at the same time.
"And you were about to let him mess with your dad's pride and joy?" I asked, placing a chocolate chip cookie in my mouth to munch on it.
Danny, Jack, and I look at each other.
"Hey, lay off. We weren't doing nothing, pops." Johnny said, looking at Jack.
"His name isn't pops!" Danny, Maddie, and I said, at the same time.
Danny, Maddie, and I look at each other.
"Yeah whatever. This place is getting a little too cramped for my style, anyway." Johnny said.
"I'll walk you out Johnny." Jazz said, looking between Danny and I. "And could the two of you be any more like them?"
"I am not like him!" Danny, Jack, Maddie, and I yelled, at the same time.
"This is awkward." Danny said, sadly.
"Yup." I said, tossing a chocolate chip cookie into my mouth.
Casper High School…
"The weirdest part was me, my parents, and Jared were actually on the same page! I'm not like them! Am I?" Danny asked.
"Let's see, Danny, you're stubborn, overprotective, your last name's Fenton…" Sam said.
"You hunt ghosts. I hunt ghosts too, but that's because I'm associated with you." I said, sipping on some bubble tea.
"Danny, the only thing you're missing is the hazmat goggles and the wonder gut." Tucker said.
Danny, Tucker, Sam, and I sat down at a table. There are two students on the other end of the table.
"It's Bad Luck Tuck, yo. We out." A student said, annoyed.
The two students leave the table. As they do, they step over the shadow of the picnic table, after which Shadow comes up out of the ground and looks around. It spots Tucker, grins, and slithers on the ground towards Tucker, stopping under his seat. Tucker is sitting, frustrated, holding his spoon and waving his arm around as he speaks.
"I am not bad luck!" Tucker said, raising his arm out, spoon in hand.
Tucker angrily raises his hand in the air, still holding his spoon. Immediately after he finishes talking, the Shadow's hand comes up from under the seat and smacks the spoon out of his hand. The spoon flies up and lands in a wasp nest. The wasps fly out in all directions and the students run away screaming as the wasp swarm chase them away.
Tucker has his face covered in wasp stings, opening a door to the courtyard. He looks around and all of the students are covered in wasp stings and glaring angrily at him. As the four of us went down the walkway, Tucker glanced nervously at the angry students surrounding us.
"Suddenly Techno Geek sounds like a term of endearment." Tucker said.
Outside Casper High…
Jazz is walking out of the school. She sees Johnny on his motorcycle and perks up.
"Hey Johnny. What are you doing here?" Jazz asked.
"What can I say doll? No matter how hard I try I can't stay away." Johnny said.
Amity Park…
Danny, Tucker, Sam, and I are walking home. Tucker is writing on a notepad. Danny's ghost sense and my ghost sense goes off. Danny and I look back and sees Jazz and Johnny speeding away on his motorcycle.
"Darn it, Jazz!" Danny said, angrily.
"Let's go, Danny." I said, while Danny changes from Fenton to Phantom. "It's hero time."
I changed from human to ghost as Danny and I flew after Johnny and Jazz. Johnny drives them up a cliff that looks over the city at sunset, Danny and I tailing them the whole way. Johnny looks in his rear-view mirror and sees Danny and I.
"Shadow. Defend." Johnny said, whispering to Shadow.
Shadow flies out from under the motorcycle and past Danny and I who turn to chase after it. Jazz and Johnny stopped on the cliffside.
"Jazz, I've been thinking. And I know this is kinda quick but, how would you like to be my girl?" Johnny asked, pulling out a ring.
Jazz looks at it in surprise.
Danny and I are fighting Shadow. I hit Shadow with an electrical shock, but it reforms around the damage.
"Suffering Spooks! 'Suffering Spooks'? Oh man, I am becoming my dad!" Danny said, screaming.
Shadow dives in towards Danny and I, mouth agape.
"Come on…" I said, while Shadow flies up, holding its arms out as Danny and I struggle to escape from inside Shadow. "Damn it…"
Danny's head and my head emerges but is still unable to break free.
"Ugh. Gotta break away from this thing." Danny said, while electrical shocks came out of my body. "Jared, what are you doing?"
"What I do best." I said, generating my electrical shocks.
Shadow is grinning but glances down worriedly when he hears the electrical shock build up.
"Yes!" I cheered, pushing outwards and released the electrical, shredding Shadow and freeing myself and Danny.
Shadow reforms and growls at me. Danny looks over at electricity coming out of my body, then turns to face Shadow, who is whole but dazed.
"Okay. So bright light weakens it. We need some bright light." Danny said, scanning the town below and spots the movie theater. "Oh yeah. That will do."
Movie theater…
Sam and Tucker are at the concession stand inside the movie theater.
"One super large popcorn." The concession stand employee said, gasping and started sweating nervously. "I know you. You're Bad Luck Tuck."
"And you're minimum wage Stan, but you don't hear me broadcasting it." Tucker said, annoyed.
"Hey, this is your fault for ditching the Techno Geek label. Maybe you need a 'new' new thing." Sam said, looking at Tucker.
"A 'new' new thing?"
"Yeah. You should go goth." Sam said, taking a black beret out of her bag and holds it out to Tucker. He frowns at it/her. "Look, it says 'I'm Tucker, but I'm also edgy and dangerous'."
"Why the heck would I want to go goth? Isn't that your thing?" Tucker asked.
Danny and I fly into the movie theater with Shadow chasing after us.
I used my electrical shocks to cause the popcorn machine to malfunction and the theater overflowed with popcorn. Danny and I phased through the popcorn machine and Shadow followed suit
"You win. Goth me up." Tucker said.
Sam smiles and switches Tucker's berets.
Danny and I intangible floating in front of a theater screen.
"Jared, where is he?" Danny asked, looking around for Shadow, who came up behind us.
"Right in time for the previews." I said, before Shadow can attack, the film starts, causing Shadow to scream. "That's what."
"You're right." Danny said, turning around. "Smile for the camera!"
Shadow dissipates, his pieces flying out of the theater. Danny and I followed Shadow.
Hilltop…
Jazz and Johnny are still there. Shadow, visibly weakened, slithers under Johnny and blends back in with his shadow. Johnny looks down at Shadow concerned, but smirks and pulls out the ring with the gem facing Jazz. Kitty's face appears in the ring and smirks.
"So Jazz, what do ya say?" Johnny asked.
"A ring? You wanna go steady? That is so old school." Jazz said, happily.
Danny and I fly up and land on a branch overlooking the couple.
"I gotta do something." Danny said, smiling.
Danny smiles.
"You know what, Johnny?" Jazz asked.
I turned myself invisible as Danny jumps out of the tree and turns back into his human form, freefalling and landing hard on the ground catching the couple's attention.
Danny looks up innocently, "Hiya. Not interrupting anything, am I?"
Jazz and Johnny stand up. Jazz stalks over to Danny, leaving Johnny still holding the ring. She grabs the back of his shirt and lifts him up.
"Are you and Jared spying on us?" Jazz asked.
Outside Fenton Works…
Jack and Maddie are in the same position, with Jack holding the back of Danny's shirt and both parents glaring at him and me.
"Were you and Jared spying on them?" Maddie asked.
"Maybe." I said, as Jazz and Johnny are looking furious.
"Alright, Alright! Jared and I were spying on Jazz. And we're really…" Danny said, sadly.
Jack and Maddie lean in.
"Good job." Jack said, whispering.
"Yeah. Way to go Danny and Jared. And if either of you see Jazz with that hooligan again, you let us know." Maddie said, whispering.
"I will. Promise." I said, happily.
Jack and Maddie look up and see Jazz and Johnny glaring at them. Johnny drives off.
"And don't do it again!" Jack and Maddie yelled, standing up.
"But seriously, feel free to do it again." Jack said, leaning in to whisper to Danny and I.
Casper High School…
Danny, Sam, and I are walking out of the building.
"Oh, this stinks! My sister's dating a ghost and I'm turning into my parents!" Danny said, angrily.
Tucker walks up, "Hey, you guys."
"Trying to be a tomboy?" I asked, looking at what Tucker is wearing.
"No." Tucker said, wearing his goth outfit.
"Bummer. I love tomboys next to moe and tsundere."
"What the heck are you turning into?" Danny asked, looking at Tucker.
"We're changing his image." Sam said, happily.
"That's right. No more 'Back Luck Tuck'. I'm changing my image. Again." Tucker said, smiling.
"Come on, you can't pull off goth." Danny said, sadly.
"Sure, he can. Tucker, show Danny your disaffected scowl." Sam said, and Tucker tries. "No, no, I can still see some hope. If you need us tonight, we'll be at Tucker's, darkening his outlook on the world. Won't that be fun?"
"Yeah. We'll be at…wait. What are you going to be doing at Tucker's?" Tucker asked.
Tucker's house…
Tucker is glaring at his reflection, "I'm seriously not enjoying this."
"But the ladies love the funky black eyeliner and the mega onyx nail polish." Sam said, smiling.
"Yeah, but on them!" Tucker said, holding up his hands to show his nails painted.
Fenton Works…
Jazz, still angry, walks to her window but smiles when she looks down and sees Johnny on the sidewalk.
"Johnny! Hi!" Jazz said, gasping.
"Hey, Kitten. This a good time?" Johnny asked.
"Yup. My parents are asleep. Wanna come up and listen to some CDs or something?"
"Yeah. CDs."
Jazz and Johnny are tip-toeing past Jack and Maddie's bedroom, their door open. Johnny smirks.
Fenton Works lab…
Johnny pulls out the ring, "So, what do ya say, kiddo? Wanna be my girl?"
Jazz reaches for the ring.
"She's not anybody's girl." Danny said, nearby.
"She really isn't." I said, walking over to Jazz and Johnny.
"Stop spying on us!" Jazz and Johnny said, at the same time.
"We won't stop, Jazz. And we won't give up. I've been in your situation before, Jazz." I said, walking up to Jazz and grabbing her shoulders. "Come on."
The jacket and scarf start to slip off, releasing Johnny's hold on Jazz, leaving her dazed.
"Think like the brain surgeon you keep telling us you're gonna be. Does this seem right?" Danny asked.
"What's taking so long? Johnny, get me out of here!" Kitty said, inside the ring.
Johnny angrily flips the ring and irritatedly glared back at Danny and I.
"Don't you think we're doing this because we have a reason." Danny said.
"You know what, punks?" Johnny asked.
The clothes fall off of Jazz. She's briefly dazed but quickly shakes it off.
"Danny? Jared?" Jazz asked, looking between Danny and I.
"We've had just about enough of the both of you." Johnny said, winding up for a punch.
"Hey! Hands off the little brother and his best friend!" Jazz yelled.
"Oh whatever." Johnny said, throwing Danny and I across the room. "Then we do this the hard way. Shadow. Shelf!"
Shadow flies to the cabinet next to Danny and I. It flies into it, causing it to break and fall over onto Danny and I.
"Danny! Jared!" Jazz said, reaching out to Danny and I.
Johnny grabs Jazz's extended arm and puts the ring on her finger.
"Hey!" Jazz said, worried.
The ring's glow spreads to Jazz's whole hand. Shadow comes up and puts the jacket and scarf back on Jazz. The ghostly glow spreads over Jazz's body. While Jazz is disoriented, Johnny drags her over to the genetic lock and uses her thumb to open the portal where Kitty is waiting on the other side. Johnny walks Jazz up to the portal. Kitty extends her hand and shoots out a beam of energy, enveloping Jazz. Both Kitty and Jazz are connected by a blue aura. Kitty's form in the ghost portal turns into Jazz, and Jazz's form in Fenton Works turns into Kitty. Johnny is eagerly watching the transformation.
Danny and I fly intangibly through the fallen cabinet and I let Danny punch Johnny.
"Danny! The ring!" I said, seeing the switch happening. "It's causing Jazz and Kitty to switch places! The full story is that Kitty's form is stuck in the Ghost Zone and she's going to use Jazz to be in our world."
"Thanks for telling me." Danny said, grabbing the ring from Jazz's finger. "What now?"
Jazz shrieks, stopping the switch and reverting her and Kitty to their original forms.
"Johnny?" Kitty asked.
"The Black Pearl told me exactly what's going on, but I know you can't do it without this! See ya, Freakshow!" Danny said, flying away with me and the ring.
"Shadow! Fetch the ring!" Johnny said, angrily.
"Tucker, Sam, pick up!" I said, taking out my iPhone 15 Pro Max and calling Tucker.
I am flying in the sky behind Danny, in my ghost form.
Tucker's kitchen…
"Tucker, I thought you wanted to wash away the 'Bad Luck Tuck' thing." Sam said, sadly.
"The only thing I'm washing away is this stupid makeup." Tucker said, frowning.
"Time for the ultimate goth accessory."
"I am not getting my ear pierced!"
"Who said anything about your ear?"
"Okay. That's it!" Tucker yelled.
"So maybe your first thing was your best thing, huh?" Sam asked.
"Yeah. Hey, you never really wanted me to go goth, did you?"
"Duh. Goth's my thing. And I believe this is yours." Sam said, handing Tucker his PDA.
"Oh, baby, I've missed you." Tucker said, grabbing his PDA and answering my call.
"Hey." I said, having myself on video and looking at what Tucker is wearing. "Wow. Nice look. Did you lose a bet?"
"Long story. It ends with me realizing that for me, goth bad, geek, good. What do you and Danny need?" Tucker asked.
"We need geek!" Danny said, gasping.
Fenton Works…
"Come on, Johnny! You know I can't switch places unless she's wearing my stuff!" Kitty said, worried.
"Hey! What's going on down there?" Jack asked, entering the room with Maddie.
"Oh, crud." Johnny said, sadly.
"Hey!" Jack said, being locked in the master bedroom with Maddie.
"Sorry, pops. Didn't want you cramping my style."
"Stop calling me pops!"
Amity Park…
"Come on, guys!" I said, flying in the air and holding my iPhone 15 Pro Max.
"He's working on it." Sam said, looking over at Tucker.
"We're good to go." Tucker said, happily.
Fenton Works…
"Time for someone else to get a little dose of bad luck." Danny said, phasing through the door with me.
"Oi! Shadow!" I said, flying away with Danny, to get the attention of Shadow. "Over here!"
"Catch us if you can, Spooky!"
Danny and I phased in and out of the basement and flew out quickly.
"Jack, calm down. Try being a little more gentle. See?" Maddie asked, turning the doorknob and opening the door.
"Well, hey, I loosened it!" Jack yelled, looking at Maddie.
"Johnny?" Kitty asked.
Jazz moans as she comes to herself again.
"You want this stuff? You're going to have to be faster than that!" Danny said, angrily.
"Shadow, Return!" Johnny said.
"He's on the run!" Jack said, looking at Maddie.
"And I've the Fenton Anti-Creep Stick! Let's get him!" Maddie said, picking up a baseball bat.
"Sweetie, that's a regular bat."
"Yup. But it's a bat with the word 'Fenton' on it."
"Man, that's hot!" Jack cheered.
Stadium…
"Hey, I don't know what you're up to, kids, but there's nowhere to run. Shadow, Fetch!" Johnny said, looking between Danny and I.
"Taking a bit of inspiration from 2016. When the Doctor does it to the Shadow Kin." I said, smirking. "We're not trying to run."
"Pass the circuit breaker here, ramp up the wattage there, reroute the power here." Tucker said, messing with wires and switches.
"Hit it!" Danny yelled.
"Hitting it." Tucker said, pressing a button.
"Maybe we're exactly where we wanted to be."
"Time to increase the voltage." I said, using my electrical shocks to increase the voltage of the stadium lights. "Here you go."
"Oh, no!" Johnny said, falling to the ground and his shadow fades away. "My shadow! My power! I gotta get out of here!"
"Better luck next time!" Danny said, using the Fenton Thermos to suck in Johnny 13 into it. "But next time... stay away from my sister."
"Danny, Jared, where is Jazz's boyfriend?" Maddie asked, holding the baseball bat.
"Gone, and he won't be coming back." Danny said.
"You and Jared decked him? But we brought the bat with the word 'Fenton' on it." Jack said, sadly.
"Oh, Jack, Danny's like a little you." Maddie said, while Danny winces. "I can't believe that kid broke into the house just to see you. It's so romantic. But you still can't ever see him again."
"I told you that punk was no good!" Danny and Jack said, shaking their fists in the air.
"He really wasn't. I'm not a fan of the bad boy stereotype anyway." I said, rolling my eyes.
"Yeah. Yeah, you did. You three did." Jazz said, smiling.
"But you, Danny, you and Jared told me first." Jazz said, looking between Danny and I.
"Hey!" Danny said, angrily.
"I love you, too."
"Which reminds me, Danny. You've been such a model son lately, I got you a little surprise. A little piece of me you can always carry with you." Jack said, happily.
Casper High…
"Bye, Danny! Have a great day!" Jack said, excitedly.
The GAV drives away, revealing Danny in an oversized Jack jumpsuit. I am invisible, laughing away at how embarrassing this is for Danny.
"Somehow that doesn't seem possible." Sam said, frowning.
"Ha!" Dash said, walking up to Tucker. "Good news, Tucker. We're going to stop making fun of you and go back to making fun of 'Fentonio!'" He then walked away from Tucker and passed by Danny. "Wimp. Freak. Geek."
"Hey!" Danny yelled.
"Thank you." Tucker said, happily.
"I need a new image. Tucker, can I borrow your PDA?" Danny asked, and Tucker frowned. "It was worth a shot. Jared, can I borrow your sonic screwdriver?"
"Nope." I said, making myself visible and taking my sonic screwdriver out of my pocket. "Not gonna happen."
"Jared's right. Get your own thing, man." Tucker said.
Memory Tardis…
"Urgh. I can feel them all over me again. Urgh!" Peri said, disgusted.
"Some memories can be very prickly, even after all this time." The Doctor said, sadly.
"Like how Atlas and Trenzalore is that for me. Or the Fall of Beacon." I said, frowning.
"It's not just that. I got back to Earth... eventually. Doctor, have you been there lately? The 21st century. It was how I met Jared." Peri said, looking at the Doctor. "It feels like Varos."
"You're not wrong, early 21st century Earth. I love it and hate it. Especially when an orange wass president." I said, leaning against the TARDIS console. "Then again, there was an old man with memory problems. Also, there was the Chinese putting the planet on constant lockdowns. Don't forget the Russians are full of power."
"Exactly. It feels like Varos. You just proved my point, Jared."
"Yes, Sil would fit in well. Everything has its price, even the planet itself. But, Peri, do you see what I mean? The inhumanity of Varos and Sil's greedy manipulation of that helped to give you the fire to fight evil wherever you found it." The Doctor said, happily.
"You mean, they didn't turn me into a bird, they turned me into the Warrior Queen?" Peri asked.
"Well, it can't be the only reason. Maybe marrying King Yrcanos is a part of it as well." I said, smirking. "The universe can be chaotic. What it creates in the end, it's always wonderful and good. That's why I have my friends to help protect it. They'll protect it to the very end. I just know it. And they see the best in people and they're the best of humanity. You'll see, Peri."
"Yeah. I get it. The three of us, we're warriors of the universe." Peri said, scoffing.
"Warriors of the universe. Oh, I like that. It has a ring to it. So, what do you think? Where shall we save first?" The Doctor asked.
"The Doctor, the Storyteller, and the Warrior Queen?"
"Why not? We're older, but our stories are a long way from over."
"I guess those minstrel songs won't write themselves."
"We'll give them something to sing about. Hell, I'll let Symphogear sing it." I said, walking over to Peri and the Doctor.
"Just one thing." Peri said, looking between the Doctor and I.
"What's up?"
"I have to go back... to Yrcanos's memorial. Can we do that? Once a year. Just to keep an eye on things."
"Right. That works. What do you think, Spaceman?"
"It's a deal! Right. Meanwhile, there are worlds out there waiting for us to save them!" The Doctor said, excitedly.
"So what are we waiting for?" Peri asked.
"Let's save some planets, you two! Amity Park and the Earth can wait for me!" I said, skipping around the TARDIS console.
"Right, come on, then!" The Doctor said, looking between Peri and I.
"Yeah!" Peri and I said, at the same time.
