Dani's Tale

This Is the story of Danielle's journey through 'Love's Eternal Flame', and 'Out of Proportion'

Danielle was just leaving the club, after ten whole rounds of Dance Dance Revolution, and was bit tired, when she heard a conversation that caught her attention.

"Poor Phantom" said the voice of Box Ghost "to have to lose everything must be so hard."

"The poor, poor boy." said the Lunch Lady "I still can't get the thing his parents said out of my head!"

"Yeah, and it was terrible!" he told her.

Danielle floated over to them and said "excuse me?"

She caught their attention.

"I'm sorry to intrude on your conversation, but what happened to Danny Phantom?" she asked.

Box ghost sighed, shaking his head sadly.

"What is it?!" Dani said, not liking the sad look on his face.

He looked up and said "his secret was revealed to his town."

Dani cocked her eyebrow.

"That doesn't seem so bad" she said.

"It's more than that" the Lunch Lady told her "when his parents found out, they rejected him, the called him a freak."

Dani's eyes widened.

"His friends turned his back on him, and didn't defend him." Box Ghost went on "and then the whole town attacked him; they threw stones at him and wanted to kill him."

Dani covered her mouth, as her jaw dropped.

"And his sister tried to defend him, but she was attacked as well." Lunch Lady said "so he ran away."

Box Ghost looked behind him and then said "we just found him, and he isn't in good condition."

"Where is he?!" Dani said, as tears began to stream down her face "I need to see him!"

"He's at Ember McLain's place; she found him a few das ago, starved, weak, and pale." Lunch Lady said.

With that Dani instantly flew off.

"Why do you care?" box ghost shouted after her.

"I'M HIS COUSIN!!!" she shouted back, surprising both of the older ghosts.

Dani flew as fast as she could. She knew where Ember McLain lived; she had stopped by once after a local concert, and wanted an autograph desperately.

After about an hour she finally made it. She knocked on the door, nearly breaking it.

The door finally opened, and Dani saw the rocker ghost standing there. Ember smiled.

"Well if it isn't my number one fan" she said "What do you need; another autograph?"

Dani was catching her breath, and said in between gasps.

"I just" *gasp* "heard." she said.

"I need" *gasp* "to see" *gasp* "Danny." she said.

"And why should I let you in; I've already had, like, 40 people stop by today."

"I'm his cousin" Dani said, her breath finally caught.

Ember looked surprised, but then nodded and said "follow me."

She followed Ember in, noticing all the posters strewn everywhere, most of them of KISS.

Ember led her into the living room. She saw Danny on the couch, but he was asleep, very pale, and looked unhealthily thin. And even in the state she was in, he was still in ghost mode.

Dani's lip quivered, her eyes began to water. She burst into tears. Ember understood, and bent down to her height, taking the sobbing girl in her arms.

"It's okay, he's gonna be alright." she told her in a soothing tone.

"How long has he been like this?" Dani asked between her tears.

Ember looked at Danny, a scared look in her eyes.

"Almost a full 24 hours" she said.

"Where did you-" Dani sniffled "-find him?"

"Johnny 13, Kitty, Youngblood, and I found him when we were hanging out at a nearby Café." Ember said "he was falling through the sky, and Johnny sent his shadow to catch him."

"When he brought him back, I took him and brought him here." she said.

Dani looked at he cousin and said "I don't have all the details, but why is he here in the first place?"

Ember shook her head, biting her lip.

She had Danielle sit on the other couch with her, and began to explain.

"Well; Skulker, Desiree, Spectra, Bertrand, Technus, Box Ghost, and Lunch lady were all attacking the town." she began "He flew in to save the town, when Vlad Plasmius appeared on some giant screen, and showed a video of his transformation, revealing his secret."

Dani nodded, indicating Ember to go on.

"He admitted that it was true, and showed it to the whole town." Ember continued "he went over to his parents, and asked if he accepted; they didn't."

Dani's eyes watered again.

"They got angry and called him a freak," Ember said "his friends tried to defend him, but their parents held them back, and called him a freak as well."

"So the LITERALLY turned their backs on him?" Dani asked,

Ember nodded "I'm afraid so…"

"Well, his town began to call him a freak in a sort of chant, and then began to throw stones at him." Ember said "his sister tried to defend him, saying he wasn't a freak, and said that he wasn't a freak, and that he was just trying to defend them."

"But they didn't listen to her, they threw stones at her too" Dani said.

Ember sighed sadly.

"So he ran away, and a day or two later I found him." Ember finished.

Dani nodded, and stood.

"Do you have some paper and a pen?" she asked.

Ember gave her a questionable look, but then nodded, and gave her some. Dani sat at the counter, as Ember gave her some water, as she was still a bit tired. After she was done writing, she handed the letter to Ember.

"Give this to him when he wakes up okay?" she said to Ember.

Ember nodded, and put the paper in her pocket. Dani walked over to Danny, and kissed him on the forehead.

She went to the door.

Ember walked after her and asked "where are you going."

Danielle looked back.

"I'm going to Amity Park; I'm gonna make them PAY for what they did to him!" she said angrily.

Ember smiled.

"Give them hell, kid!" she told Danielle.

Dani cracked her knuckles "I intend to!"

And thus, she flew off.

Well, lets hope Dani survives through this! And I'll put the newest chapter up ASAP.
