Fc: I bet you weren't expecting this so soon if at all! That's right, this is one of two story expansions I plan on doing. The firat chapter is kinda short but it kinda had to be.
Disclaimer: I do not, have not, and probably never will own Danny Phantom (unless my career as an animator does take off, then I'm gonna buy him for the phans)
Tangible
Adj: real; actual; substantial; capable of being perceived; especially capable of being handled, touched or felt. I am Tangible, Why couldn't they see that?
There's a saying, 'You never know how precious something is before it's gone', or something like that. It's right you know. I never had any concept of how precious my life… no matter how full of lies it was, was to me. I never understood it until now.
Now I lay, dying in my 'parents' basement. I just wanted to live. I just wanted to be. I don't care if I'm some weird copy… don't I deserve to live too? Why… Why must I die, again… just to ease their guilt.
I don't want to die…
I guess it all started about a year ago. That's when "I" was in a freak lab accident. I put I in quotes for a reason. That's because I technically didn't exist yet. I remember the event… but I wasn't there. I remember the pain, but never felt it. I remember gaining the powers of a ghost… yet not receiving them at all.
The memory… that and anything before it, were fuzzy, barely there at times. It was almost as though they were unnatural… but how could that be? I mean they were 'MY' memories. In truth… they never were. All of those experiences; being born, making friends, dying… Those thoughts and feelings weren't truly mine.
I wasn't born… I was created.
People have called me Danny… It's not my name… I don't have a name of my own… A life of my own. I was created to fill in the gap when a family lost their only son to their own carelessness.
That accident brought me into existence… because Danny Fenton died in it.
