My FIRST DP fic! Hope it's good, cuz I got this idea….well, just randomly, I guess. It was however, inspired by my OC. Enjoy!
Flying through town in a dark green jumpsuit, with a purple halter top with one strap going over my left shoulder, and purple boots dawning my feet, I was only looking for some help. From the situation I was just in, I needed someone to come and help me. It wasn't going to be hard, just one easy little task. I saw teenagers starting to pour out of the local high school, thus crowding the sidewalks and streets as they began filling the buses, parents' cars, and sidewalks on their way home. I quickly went invisible and continued my search. He has to be around here somewhere; this is where he goes to school, after all. Then I spotted a 14-year old boy with black, slightly messy hair, a white shirt with a red circle on it, and regular jeans to go with it.
"Ah-hah! There he is." I whispered to myself. I felt the sharp pain of Mantis' sting in my side, and soon I felt myself falling out of the sky. I stopped myself before I hit the ground. Luckily, I had managed to stay invisible. Unluckily, however, I felt the poison leaking to all parts of my body. Effects were pouring in fast. As I stood on the sidewalk, I felt myself getting weak in the knees, and my head began to spin. I felt like I was going to throw up. I covered my stomach with my arms, wincing with pain. Suddenly, I realized that I was feeling no skin on my arms. I looked down to see that there was a big hole where my stomach was supposed to be. I cursed to myself. I was already starting to disappear. I could hear the harsh raspy voice of Mantis ringing in my head.
"Now that the poison is well inside you, child, you will start to slowly disappear, piece by piece, until you are reduced to nothing. Side effects, you ask? Pain! All over your body, you will feel pain! Mwahahaha!" I shivered at the memory, and struggled to step forward. I felt my voice starting to weaken, and it grew quieter. I lost the strength to stay invisible just as I approached him and dropped to my knees.
"Help…me!" I croaked. I felt like dropping dead, but I knew I couldn't. If I let myself, I knew Mantis would take over the city. Not this city, Amity Park, my city; my home. I could remember perfectly what had led me here in the first place.
Flashback time! Yippieeee [X
As I flung the mud monster away, finally defeating it, I realized that the bell had just rang. I flew in a hurry back to the bathroom, to secretly change back. As soon as I was encased in a series of vines, I changed back to my human form, Dacey Turner, I heard a gasp coming from outside the bathroom door. I saw that it was open, and that pretty much every kid in the school had seen me change back.
"Oh shittle skittle, they saw me!" I whispered to myself.
"Ok, look, that wasn't what it looked like." I lied, throwing my hands in the air.
"Pshh, yeah it was! You're Velvet Nature!" The kid in front of the crowd exclaimed. Oh shoot….
"Ok, then it is what it looked like!" I said. I started walking out of the bathroom, but the crowd of middle-schoolers were closing in on me. I had to get to class, so I turned intangible and pushed my way through the crowd, and ran down the stairs.
Once I got to my class, I could feel everyone staring at me. They saw me, they had proof. My cover was blown. Everyone was going to get on my case now. People started to rapid-fire questions at me. Just as I was about to answer, I heard a wall get knocked down, followed by the cackle of Mantis, my most deadly foe. Ignoring the panic and fear of my classmates, I became encased in the same series of dark green vines that had encased me moments ago, and changed into my super-hero persona, the Velvet Nature.
"Mantis! You know I don't do school hours, right?" I greeted.
"Relax, child, I'm only here for your shot!" He exclaimed, cackling again.
"Ok, either you're nuts, or you're wacko. You choose." I joked. He looked serious. He pulled out a huge mosquito from a jar he had inside the pockets of his coat, and shot the mosquito's deadly-sharp looking needle-like nose right into my stomach. I felt my whole body start to weaken and I fell to the ground.
Flashback ending time! (dum dum dummmmmm!)
"So, that's what happened? A giant mosquito got you in the stomach?" Danny, his Phantom-form by now, asked. I knew he'd think it was weird.
"Well, I probably should've explained that Mantis, that stupid crackpot, controls bugs, and that mosquito he got me with, he explained that it would start to make me disappear, piece by piece. I'm already disappearing. Look." I explained, removing my purple-gloved hand from my stomach. The three gasped at the hole in the middle of my body. Then I felt my arm, up to my elbow, disappear.
"Well, so much for that arm." I complained.
"Well, what are you going to do?" The girl standing next to Danny asked.
"Well, gee, I don't know, why do you think I'm here right now?" I spat, sarcastically. She gave me a look of annoyance.
"But, you probably should bring you back to your town. Maybe that'll help." Phantom suggested.
"Dude, are you crazy? Did you NOT hear the part where I totally blew my identity? Why would I want to go back there?" I shot at him.
"Well, it's the only choice we have!" He shot back. I nodded my head and started to levitate just inches above the ground.
"Well, fine then. Let's go." I waved them to follow, and started flying my way back home, glancing back for a moment to make sure they were following me. I turned my head back and started to think of home again. I remembered my best friends. Then I realized that my best friend's name was Samantha, too. The funny part is that we call her Sam. Well, there are two Sams at my school. Then my other friend, Kyla. She's the closest friend I'll ever have. She and my other friend, Sam, are the only other people who knew about my powers before I blew it. I wonder what they're going to tell me. How dumb that was. I'd tell them I know, I know it was dumb. Then I would get mobbed by everyone else in the school. Poor me. As soon as I saw a brick building coming up, I flew down towards the front doors and walked inside. I saw Kyla standing there. She gasped when she saw that my stomach and arm were gone.
"Dacey, what the hell? What happened to you?" She asked, walking up to me. Of course, the lobby where we were conferencing was right in front of the main office, and of course they had a security camera in the lobby. Of course.
"Well, Mantis, that sycho, he stabbed me with a giant mosquito. I'm slowly starting to disappear, piece by piece." I explained. She had an 'Oh, crap.' Look on her face.
"I know." I replied to her look.
"Who are they?" She asked, pointing behind me. I looked behind me to see Danny, Sam and Tuck. I explained to her that they were here to help me fix my 'problem' and then introduced them to Kyla and my Sam. My Sam laughed at the coincidence, but the other Sam didn't. She ignored the lack of laughter and then became serious. Suddenly, I saw the ground coming oddly closer and closer to my face.
My leg was gone.
Oh, shiattt! She in trouble now, isn't she? Hahahaha! Wellzz, we'll see what happens next chapter! Ahahah, so how'd I do? Review!
