Through Their Eyes

Authors Note: This fic includes my OC, Thomas Plasmius, the clone of Vlad's daughter, Tori Plasmius. I'm warning you ahead of time, Thomas is a hermaphrodite, and he is pregnant (but he's only about three months in) so if you are not fond of mpreg, then I suggest that you don't read this and find another fic to read. There are plenty out there.

Danny Phantom and its characters belong to Butch Hartman, not me. However, Thomas DOES belong to me, so no stealing.

Dani Phantom was tired. Tired was the only word to describe her condition at the moment as she peered out of her hiding spot in the filthy alley. Her eyes glowed as she looked about cautiously, beads of cold sweat dripping down her forehead, her face a grimace. Behind her hid a boy, his appearance that of a fourteen year old boy. His black hair was messy and unkempt, his red eyes looking just as tired as Dani's. He quietly rubbed the paunch of his stomach, trying in some way to tell the child growing within him that all was well. But who was he kidding? Babies could feel what their mothers felt, even while still in the womb. And right now, he was feeling fear.

"Is it clear, Dani?" The boy said quietly as Dani stepped out of their small hiding place, placing a hand on her sweaty forehead.

"Yeah…It's clear, Thomas…" She said in a tired voice as she gave him a weak smile. Carefully, Thomas crawled out as well, looking at the young girl he considered his sister. She was in such a pitiful state. Dani was pale, sweating, and looked very ill.

"You don't look so good, Dani. You feeling alright?" He said, knowing the answer that he would get.

"Uh oh…" She muttered, looking at her own reflection in a dusty, broken window. Her face reflected fatigue and illness as she touched her face in mild shock.

"Woah, that's one scary ghost…" Thomas had to agree there, but he didn't say anything. He didn't want to upset her and cause her to…Melt again.

"We should get going, Dani." He said in a firm voice. Dani turned around and looked up into the sky, her eyes wide with fear.

"I've got to get to Danny, fast." She said, starting to fly off about a foot off of the ground. Thomas followed suit, flying closely after Dani. If she fell, she would hurt herself pretty badly, even if it was just a foot long drop.

"…Or slow… Slow's good….Even slower's better…" She said, slowing her speed down to the point where she wasn't even mobile. Thomas understood and helped her down to the ground, Dani groaning softly from exertion. More sweat began to pour forth from her brow as she placed her hands on her knees, a soft hissing noise coming from her feet.

"Woah! Dani!" Thomas exclaimed as a bright green substance formed a puddle from underneath her white boots. It bubbled with a soft sick sound as Dani yelped loudly.

"I just hope Danny can help me!" Dani cried out, grunting with effort as she quickly absorbed the green liquid into her body. Thomas breathed a sigh of relief, but it quickly turned into a gasp as a cat screamed loudly, a garbage can being knocked over in the distance. Dani heard it too as she looked around wildly, her eyes wide and fearful.

"I can't let him find us!" She said, looking about with Thomas. All that greeted them was a gentle breeze that blew the clothes around on a clothesline.

"Okay…Let's pull ourselves together…Vlad's all the way in Colorado…" Dani muttered, her voice slightly shaky.

"There's no way he can know that we're here! Let's go, Dani…" Thomas said in a slightly chipper voice, trying to bring Dani's spirits up. Without answering him, Dani once again flew off, Thomas following obediently.

However…They weren't alone like they thought they had been.

It had been so easy for Vlad Plasmius. All he needed to do to find the two clones was send out tiny insect cameras throughout the city. He didn't need to lift a finger!

"Well, well, well…The return of the prodigal daughter and son." Vlad said to his cat, Maddie, who was resting in his arms, purring lightly. The screen displayed the two youths flying desperately through the alleys of Elmerton.

"She's looked better…And yet, she survived…The question is why...?" Vlad said, his eyebrows furrowed in confusion and calculation. He peered at the screen closer to check on his "son", Thomas. He couldn't tell, but he just felt that something was…Off…About Thomas. But what was it?! His thoughts were interrupted by Maddie meowing her idea to him.

"Oh yes, I agree Maddie. It's time for a little…Research…But they're hardly going to come running home to dear old Dad…" He said in mild frustration, Maddie leaping out of his arms and onto his desk, her paw placed next to a special button on his desk…Of course...Plasmius floated excitedly in the air at the sudden hint.

"Oh, Maddie, you are so brilliant! Yes, let's call on Daddy's Little Helper!" He exclaimed, black rings of light forming around his waist, transforming him into regular Vlad Masters, billionaire and mayor of Amity Park. He landed on the floor with a light thump, walking over to his desk and sitting down in the plush chair, pressing the red button labeled "Valerie" with a grin on his face. He would get his "children" back with the aide of Valerie, the Ghost Hunter of Amity Park.
