GHOSTBUSTERS!

[dadreaper.livejournal.com]

Who: Kurosaki Isshin and Danny Fenton
When: Around 10pm
Where: Sue Salvatore's house
What: Investigating an spooky ghost!
Warnings: Rated S for Spooky


Isshin checked the scrap of paper he had written down the details for the job on, then looked around. He was PRETTY sure he was at the right address, but Danny was supposed to meet him there and the kid was no where in sight. He sighed, leaned against a nearby wall and folded his arms, waiting. It wouldn't do to to lose track of Danny. He was already dead, after all. It wouldn't do to have even more stuff go wrong for him.

Ghost-boy doesn't even turn around. It just starts to put stuff into a baking pan and mix. "Buzz off. Can't you see that I'm busy here?"

[totallynotaspaz.livejournal.com]

Danny stepped forward. "Hey, that's not fair! Come on, we're just trying to help."

Help the woman whose house is being haunted, at any rate.

"You can help by leaving me alone to work!" It pulls out some milk to be heated and somehow manages to keep mixing the concoction that is also heating in the pan.

[dadreaper.livejournal.com]

"What are you doing, cooking something?"

[anemonsters.livejournal.com]

"No, I'm making a bomb," it replied sarcastically. "Of course I'm cooking! Now shut up and get out of my kitchen!" Next went in the heated milk and some egg yokes.

[totallynotaspaz.livejournal.com]

Man, this ghost was kind of rude.

"Okay...why are you cooking, then?" Danny almost asked what he was cooking, but something told him that knowing what he was cooking was less useful than why.

[anemonsters.livejournal.com]

"Because I am, well was, a chef! That's why!" Now to slowly add cheese to the mix...

[dadreaper.livejournal.com]

"Well, this is someone else's kitchen. If you want to be a chef, you should be at a restaurant, shouldn't you? Why stop feeding people just because you're dead?"

[anemonsters.livejournal.com]

Kinda the wrong thing to say. "I will never work in a restaurant again! They don't understand my creativity there and absolutely ruined my masterpiece! Which, you two are well on your way to doing with all these distractions. Now get out!!" A used wooden spoon is thrown in Isshin's and Danny's general direction.

[dadreaper.livejournal.com]

Isshin swats the spoon out of the air. For just a moment everyone, alive dead or in-between, is hit by an enormous sense of pressure, as if they suddenly weighed several times their normal weight.

But it's gone almost immediately as Isshin regains his composure, "Okay fine not a restaurant, but some random woman's kitchen is not the place."

[totallynotaspaz.livejournal.com]

The feeling of sudden heaviness causes Danny to stop and hesitate, but as it passes, he steps forward confidently (or what he thought was confidently).

"Yeah, this kitchen isn't yours--it's not for you to use. This is someone's home and, ghost or not, you can't just take over their house like this."

Danny does not feel like he can live up to his bold words...but he tries hard to make it look like he can.

[anemonsters.livejournal.com]

The sudden heaviness caused the ghost to accidentally over-beat the mixture with the hand mixer. "Look what you made me do!! It's RUINED." With shrieks of rage more utensils go flying at them. As does the ruined mixture.

[dadreaper.livejournal.com]

Isshin ducked the barrage, "Well I'm out of ideas."

[totallynotaspaz.livejournal.com]

Danny had, for the first time, almost instinctively gone intangible, the items passing through him as though he wasn't there. When he heard Isshin talk, though, he turned to him.

"What? Already?!"

Oh man. They couldn't just stop now, could they?

Danny scrambled for something he could do to help.

His legs shaking, he began stepping toward the ghost slowly, hands up in a gesture of peace. "Okay. Look, we just want to help so that you can do your, uh, masterpiece-ing without interrupting this lady's life, but throwing knives and stuff at us isn't going to fix anything."

Seriously, if that was going to keep happening, this might actually get physical, and Danny really, really didn't want that, not with his nonexistent experience with any sort of fighting.

[anemonsters.livejournal.com]

The barrage of pots and bowls stop for a moment. "If you want to help, you could leave me alone for several hours! Same with that annoyance outside! My souffle would be finished if she didn't cause it to deflate!"

[dadreaper.livejournal.com]

"That's all you want to do? Finish cooking your meal?"

[totallynotaspaz.livejournal.com]

"Seriously?" Danny stared at the ghost incredulously. "Just...one meal?"

[anemonsters.livejournal.com]

"Yes, just this souffle! Is that so much to ask?" The pots and pans are slammed down on the counter, and everything being cleaned up to try again. "When I was alive, it kept being ruined by other chefs. Then the one day it was perfect, there was a fire that ended up killing me! And even in death I'm apparently not allowed to make this one. Simple. Dish!" The last few words were punctuated with loud bangs.

[dadreaper.livejournal.com]

"If we help you do this, will you leave that poor woman's kitchen alone?"

[totallynotaspaz.livejournal.com]

"Would you, uh...not throw knives around any more either?" Danny gestured behind him at the knives that the ghost had thrown earlier.

[anemonsters.livejournal.com]

"Weren't you listening?! I said to just leave me be for a couple of hours! Once I finish this one thing I can go on to my afterlife!"

Somehow it managed to glower at Danny. "I only threw what was nearby because you ruined the souffle."

[dadreaper.livejournal.com]

Isshin eyed the ghost, then Danny. The look he gave Danny seemed to ask "Is this problem just going to solve itself?"

[totallynotaspaz.livejournal.com]

Danny blinked a few moments at Isshin, then looked around the corner. He glanced back at Isshin and silently jerked his head towards the door, slowly beginning to walk towards it himself.

"All right then...I guess we'll just leave you alone to finish your souffle, then."

He looked back at Isshin again and, almost hesitantly, gestured for the man to follow him as he rounded the corner behind the door, ready to stake out the souffle-baking.

[anemonsters.livejournal.com]

After an hour and a half of noises being heard from the kitchen, it fell silent. When someone enters the kitchen, all that can be seen is a perfect souffle with cheese sauce sitting on the counter, waiting to be eaten and enjoyed. The ghost is nowhere to be found.

[totallynotaspaz.livejournal.com]

Danny checked if the coast was clear, glancing both ways, before standing in the open in the kitchen, staring at the souffle.

"That...that was a lot easier than I thought it would be."

[dadreaper.livejournal.com]

Isshin stared at the souffle over Danny's shoulder.

"...I wonder if it's safe to eat."

[totallynotaspaz.livejournal.com]

Danny approached it gingerly, reaching out to it.

"Maybe I should taste test it, then? Since, you know...can't really get sick from if it if I'm already dead, right?"

[dadreaper.livejournal.com]

Yoink! Not fast enough, Danny. Isshin walked back out into front room with the souffle and a fork, "Situation's resolved, Ma'am. And the ghost made a souffle, if you want to try your luck."
