History[]

Jimmy's parent had split up, but they were still close friends. This has been very hard for him to deal with. He had a lot of anger inside of him, and he blamed his dad for the break up. Since his dad Dan was a firefighter and was often away from home. One night his mom Linda, he, his older sister and the other firefighters all got together and through her dad a surprise birthday party that went really well. Then his mom had to go back to work at the hospital, and left he and his sister with their dad.

Suddenly, the lights began to flicker off and on. Captain Bill said it was because of the fire ghost who haunts the station. His dad then told him that there was no such thing and not to worry about it. Then suddenly, the window near where he was sitting inexplicably smashed in. He screamed and cut his hand. Then his father tried to help him put on a bandage. But He wouldn't let him help him.

His Dad apologizes for not seeing him the week before. His reason was because he had to fill in for someone. He snapped at his dad, saying that he could have had someone else fill in. And that he always has excuses for not being there. Even when he still lived at home. Then his dad apologized to him promising that things would soon change. Then his dad asked him to join him in the recreation room and tried out the new new video game. Hearing this, he smiled and looked forward to it.

Then suddenly, the fire alarm went off. Captain Bill said there was a fire at a warehouse. So his dad told his sister to call their mom and let her know about it. He looked mad and let down once again. As he saw his dad heading out to fight the fire. Instead of spending time with him. After the fire engine left, the phone line and the power both went out.

Then he and his sister saw a fireman sliding down the pole. The fireman approached he and his sister and introduced himself as Jake Griffin. He informed he and his sister that he watches over the station when the others are gone.

Then she and her brother saw a fireman sliding down the pole. The fireman approached she and her brother and introduced himself as Jake Griffin. He informed she and her brother that he watches the station when the others are gone.

His sister asked Jake if he's ever heard of a Fire Ghost. So Jake told he and sister that a fire was like a wild animal. The fire lives, it dies, and it thinks. Because fire will do anything to survive and grow. It's the firefighter's job to stop it, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's dead. The spirit of the fire remains. The Fire Ghost follows the firefighters back to the station looking for revenge. Jake then told he and his sister to never get caught by a Fire Ghost! Or it would pull them into its world of eternal flames!

Jake then told him and his sister, that the only way a fire ghost can cross into our world, was if someone looked right into the flame. After Jake left, he and sister went to rest upstairs.

Later that night, he saw a glowing aura coming from the fire pole opening. This piqued his interest. So he grabbed a lit candle. Then he slid down the pole to check it out. When arriving downstairs, he heard a growling and flickering sound. Then from the equipment room, there was a flickering bright yellow light inside. Then it stopped, just his candle went out. Then suddenly, his candle relit itself! Then it flared into a powerful full blast flame. Almost like a blast from a flamethrower. He just stared right at it. Then it instantly went out again. Then inside the equipment room, the flickering light also went out.

Then someone tapped him on the shoulder. He screamed and turned around to see it was only Roxy. He tried to explain what he saw, then the phone rang. So he answered the phone. Then suddenly, a laughing sinister voice threatened to come after him and his sister. As Roxy heard it, she nervously said that they were not alone.

Then suddenly, a hose wrapped itself around his legs. It begun to pull him into the equipment room and closed the door. His sister frantically banged on the door crying for help. Then suddenly, a suit of firefighting equipment came to life. When the door opened, the firefighting suit chopped half the hose off, enabling him to break free. Then he and his sister ran upstairs frantically calling for Jake to help them.

He and her sister encountered the firefighter, who revealed itself to be Jake. Jake informed he and his brother that the Fire Ghost was here. So he and his sister were told to get out of the station as fast as they could. Also to be aware that the Fire Ghost was full of tricks. His sister asked Jake how he knew so much about ghosts. Jake revealed that he knew, because he was one also. Then Jake vanished.

He and her sister couldn't exit the front door, since now there were flames burning behind it. So he and his sister escaped through the window that broke earlier. Then he and his sister ran into a police officer. He and his sister tried to explain to him that a Fire Ghost was after them. And their dad was a firefighter, who works at the station. The Officer wanted to see things for himself, so he went inside with them.

When they return inside the station, all the lights and power worked again. The Officer called out to see if anyone was inside, and no one answers. They lead him to the equipment room where the Fire Ghost was. But nothing was in there. Thinking this was a prank, the officer asked them to wait inside the equipment room. While he looked around the station. They keep refusing to go in. Until the officer suddenly transformed into the Fire Ghost itself. Then a scorching flame, burned like a flamethrower inside the equipment room. Then he vanishes in a puff of smoke; while laughing.

They run off terrified, in another room. There they see Jake sitting down. He says that he warned them, that it was full of tricks. He tells them he was disappointed, because he told him not to look at the flame. Hearing this his sister was furious, but he said that it was only for a second.

Jake informs them that only one second is all that it takes. So since he was the one who released it, He's gonna have to be the one to stop it. So he and his sister planned to defeat the Fire Ghost. So he taunted it out to come out and get him. Then the Fire Ghost, slowly approached him. Then his sister walked up to it from behind, and she sprayed it with a fire extinguisher and it disappeared.

They high five and rejoiced. Suddenly, the Fire Ghost came back with a vengeance. Then it closed in on them sinisterly laughing. Now he noticed the sprinkler system on the ceiling. So he instantly thought up a way to trick, the fire ghost into setting them. So he told it that he hates fire, and to do anything just not to use fire. He also said that it was too horrible to look at. And to please do anything, but turn into fire.

The Fire Ghost, took him up on this taunt. Then it used its full power, engulfing itself in blazing scorching flames. From its head and both hands. Then eventually its whole body is on fire. The flames burn so high, that they touch the ceiling. Then it sets off the emergency sprinklers. Then instantly the Fire Ghost got doused and drenched. Then it vaporized into a pile of ash.

He and Roxy rejoiced and hugged in victory. Jake then told he and his sister that his job here was now done, and then he vanished. The fire engine came back and their dad came in wondering what the deal with the big mess was. He and his sister both run into his arms giving him a big hug. Soon he and his sister began to spend more with their dad, after his dad realized that the Fire Ghost was gone and Jake was now at peace.
