"Bewerewulfed"

(What a hairy situation!)

Prologue

In the Ghost Zone, at Warden Walker's prison, the skeleton-like sheriff of the Ghost Zone Prison is meeting with the sinister, blue-skinned Vlad Plasimus.

Warden Walker is reviewing a thick dossier and grumbling to himself. " Fourteen years old…sometimes he's got thick, black hair, red and white t-shirt and sneakers, and blue jeans. Hmmm, and sometimes he's in a black and white costume, has white hair, and emits green ectoplasmic rays from his hands. Is there any other description recorded of him?

Plamius answers. "Just what exactly are you muttering about? Of course, we're both talking about the same person, no matter what he looks like! In fact, I might add that his meddling friends, a girl and a boy, usually accompany him. The girl has short black hair, wears boots and is too smart for her own good. The other one, you know, the boy who wears glasses and a red beret, has foiled many of many of the ghosts' plans with his technological savvy.

"Is that right?" the Warden asks flipping through the file. Disappointed that he does not have that same information in his records, he yells, "I need more pages!"

"Oh, never mind that for now, Walker. Just remember our agreement. Once I give you control over Wulf, he will do twice the dirty work...Destroy that inferno ghost child, and..."

"Destroy?" Walker interrupts, clearly upset. "That won't do! I want him alive!"

Plasmius chuckles in feigned embarrassment and answers. "Did I say destroy him? No, no. But when Wulf captures the boy, we will ruin the life he has in the Real World and in the Ghost Zone. And then, of course, you can do whatever you want with the beast .."

"And the ghost boy…" Walker interrupts.

"Yes, as you wish," Plasmius yields, but secretly thinks, 'We'll see about that…'

Warden Walker motions to his minions to bring the chained and growling Wulf into the room. Wulf struggles with his bonds, but does not have any luck in freeing himself. He howls and lunges at the Warden, who ignores the suffering ghost animal.

Instead, the Warden turns to Plasmius, picks up a picture of Danny Phantom kicking the Warden's butt, shows it to Plasmius, and says, "Two for one. Keep the Wulf. Finally get my punk!"

Chapter 1

The next morning, Danny Fenton, Tucker Foley and Sam Manson, all freshmen at Casper High School, are walking down the hallway toward their next class. Tucker is busily speaking Esperanto, an artificial language that mixes the elements of all foreign tongues, to a passing "geek" boy.

Sam, clearly irritated, remarks to Tucker, "Will you stop doing that? It's embarrassing!"

Tucker dutifully answers her in Esperanto until he realizes that he's not speaking in English, then finishes in English,"…if I don't practice?"

"What?" Danny responds, finally paying attention to the last part of what Tucker and Sam were saying.

Tucker patiently repeats, in English this time, "I said, 'How do you expect me to be able to speak to Wulf if I don't practice?'"

Danny answers with a sigh. "Speaking of Wulf, do you think we will ever see him again? I thought we would by now. I look for him whenever I'm in the Ghost Zone, but so far I haven't even found a trace of him. It's been so long since we've seen him..."

"...or smelled him..." interrupts Sam.

"...or spoken to him!" Tucker adds, turning to another passing "geek" kid and speaking to the kid in Esperanto again. But because he is not watching where he is going, he runs right into Dash Baxter, the school's resident bully-jock.

Dash immediately shoves Tucker away and wiping himself off, jeers, "Ey-Yuck! Loser oozer!"

Danny instantly jumps to Tucker's defense and blurts, "Hey! It was just an accident, Dash!"

To which, Dash responds, "Maybe,...but this isn't!" and he instantly pushes Danny into a nearby trash can.

Infuriated, Danny clenches his fists and his eyes momentarily flash from his usual blue eyes to eerie green auras.

At first, Dash gasps at the sight of the glowing eyes, but then moves in with the intent to whack Danny again.

This time Sam comes to Danny's defense. She steps between the trapped Danny and the charging Dash and challenges, "Look, Jocko! Isn't it time for a new nerd flavor of the month? We are really stale, you know."

Dash, surprised by her fearlessness, stops, blinks, and remarks, "Yeah...Never thought of that before...So many nerds, so little time." Licking his lips with self-satisfaction, Dash turns away from the trio and starts chasing another small, nerd boy.

Sam turns to Danny and helping him out of the trashcan, chides, "Danny! You've gotta be more careful! Dash saw your eyes change color! You're gonna hafta work at controlling your emotions."

Danny, looking vacantly at Sam, dryly replies, "You're kidding, right? I don't need to do that! At our age, it's natural to be out of control!"

Tucker snickers at Danny's response.

"Urgh!" Sam growls, and she stomps away from them.

"Hey wait up!" Danny calls to her as he and Tucker quicken their pace until all three friends are reunited. The bell rings and they head toward their next class.
