I do not own Danny Phantom.
This first chapter was written by the wonderfully talented JuneLuxray2. The rest of the story will be by me.
Adoption rules:
1. Cannot turn into AU or OOC characters.
2. Danny cannot get a blood test and have it come out 'half ectoplasm and half human blood'. He can, however, get a blood test without those results.
3. Do not turn it into a tragedy; no one can get killed.
4. Danny can be revealed as a half ghost to his parents ONLY if you want.
Stupid Flowers
There was a flower festival at Casper High. The Phantom trio looked around at the beautiful arrays of flowers in curiosity as they wandered around the behind of the high school, where it was taking place. Maddie and Jack Fenton were supervising for ghosts. As the trio passed by, Maddie waved to Danny. "Hi sweetie!" she called. Danny blushed and waved back, embarrassed. His father cast him a wink, and Danny kept moving on.
Some venders were looking over some odd flowers they had received from their shop to show with curiosity. They had never seen anything like them before- purple canes, dark red blossoms. Thorns adorned them. They shrugged and put them on display, figuring it was some hybrid flower- they had no knowledge a ghost had sabotaged the shipments on the way there so it had blood blossoms instead of roses they were supposed to get as a sick prank- the ghost had used a special wrap around the blossoms to be able to move them, then fled with the roses to give to his own beloved ghost lover.
Danny hadn't even noticed the blossoms when Sam stopped short and poked Danny. He looked over, winced at seeing the blossoms, and was about to turn around, when:
"I AM THE BOX GHOST!" A familiar voice echoed in the ears of the group as the Box Ghost burst out of the stand with the blossoms, sending them flying. He gasped as one hit him in the face. He fell down with a shout of pain, long enough for Danny's parents to rush over and capture the ghost.
Danny was not so lucky. Five blossoms came at him and his friends. His friends gasped as their friend fell over, red smoke beginning to arise from his body. He shook with shocks of red electricity that ran in his body.
He screamed involuntarily. Everyone looked over to see the blossoms also affecting Danny as well as the Box Ghost. There were gasps. Danny knit his eyes tight in the excruciating pain and tried not to scream as he grit his teeth tight. He swore he felt his father, judging by what felt like a large hand, roll the boy over. "Danny!" the voice sounded very faint and far away.
"HELP!" was all he was able to shout. There was a pause for a few minutes- a few more minutes of pain- and then it began to dull away, though it left him very sore and almost unable to move. That attack of the blood blossoms was longer than the last time, and made him much weaker. He cracked his eyes open to see Tucker with bits of the blossoms left around his mouth, his parents standing over him with worried expressions, and a number of other students who were trying to get a look over at him. Danny gasped.
"Thank you..." he said, exhaling sharply. Sam sighed and turned to his parents.
"You see, Mr. and Mrs. Fenton...the thing about Blood Blossoms are...not only are ghosts affected, some humans can be just as badly injured. That ghost was hit by one. Danny was hit by five. He was probably in horrible pain. Were you, Danny?" she asked. Danny nodded his head.
"S-so painful." he said, And he was not lying.
"We know this because one time some ghost attacked us and- a ghost hunter used blood blossoms- some landed on Danny, and...it was the first time he ever had such a reaction. This is the second time." she lied. Danny's dad propped the boy up against him for the minute. Mr. Lancer approached with a frown.
"Jiminy Christmas, Mr. Fenton! I've never seen as bad a reaction to any sort of flower that you had. Mr. and Mrs. Fenton, I advise you take him home for the day. I think he needs to rest. He was under those flowers for a long time." he said. "In fact, perhaps the Emergency Room."
"Thank you, Mr. Lancer. He'll be going to the doctor soon-"
"D-doctor? I-I don't NEED some s-stupid d-doctor." the boy stuttered. His parents ignored him for the moment. His friends helped him get up, then his parents supported him as they walked to the car. Danny began to protest.
"...I don't need to go to the hospital. I'm fine." he claimed.
"Danny, you were in complete and utter pain. Now, they're just gonna run some tests and that'll be it, and we'll go home. Okay?" Maddie promised. Danny begrudgingly said nothing and leaned back in the seat.
