Become You

Every time they met, Danny found himself more and more driven to defeat Plasmius. And eventually, he spent days thinking about how he could take Vlad down the next time they met. Each day he spent time wondering when Vlad would appear. How he would appear. What his scheme would be. Though he didn't want to end up in a fight with Vlad, young Danny knew he had to be prepared.

Become You- A Drabble by TAA

Danny had hated Vlad since he had learned of the elder halfa's plots, namely the one where he planned to kill Jack Fenton. Danny had labeled Vlad a "froot-loop" and a would-be murderer. And ever since then Danny's hatred toward Vlad had been growing.

Every time they met, Danny found himself more and more driven to defeat Plasmius. And eventually, he spent days thinking about how he could take Vlad down the next time they met. Each day he spent time wondering when Vlad would appear. How he would appear. What his scheme would be. Though he didn't want to end up in a fight with Vlad, young Danny knew he had to be prepared.

And then had come his dark older self. Danny knew he would never become such a monster on his own. He knew, knew, deep from the pit of his soul, that Vlad had something to do with it. He suspected Plasmius a lot these days. And he was right, but what he had found was a tattered old man. A tattered old man who regretted what had happened. Something within Danny was deeply frustrated by this. Something malevolent. But he pushed it back to listen to Vlad's story.

Danny learned all about how Vlad had removed his ghost half, and how that angry, rage-filled ghost half had taken out his anger on Vlad, gruesomely ripping away Vlad's very soul... his own ghost half. He learned how his own rage created a monster out of himself by fusion with Vlad's ghost half. Pure evil became of Vlad's desire to murder and Danny's desire for revenge combined.

And something else stirred within Danny: Fear. Honest fear. Captivatingly cruel terror. He had become one with the very person he hated the most. And he knew then that he had to get rid of the monster that he had created from his own rage. The monster he never wanted to become.

And, fin. :)

This drabble was inspired by "Figure.09" by Linkin Park, and, of course, is based on bits from "The Ultimate Enemy".

And, about Monster: I need to get my lazy butt moving, eh? Need to stop these hiatuses and start to write and type some more. But you know, life.
