PLEASE PLEASE READ:
I already explained it last chapter but just in case: The following was an old Author's note as I mention below but it included AN EXTRA DRABLE which wasn't much edited nor is included in the story that starts next chapter.
So please don't get confused, this is just a drable (that contains some things I add during the story). Chapter 1 is up next on the "3rd" chapter :D
thank you for reading!
SUPER EDIT:
Okay so there used to be here an Authors Note asking if I should continue this and what would the readers want me to write about if I actually continued...blah blah blah XD
Anyways its been a long time since then and this AN is not needed anymore so I decided to erase almost all of its content cause its kind of spoiling and deceiving.
But I will leave the drabble here! (I will leave the old Authors note that goes after it intact because of nostalgic reasons XD).
Hope you like it...n_n
I care
Danny was awestruck; he had got lost in the castle three times in the week and could hardly find his way to the bathroom when he was asleep. But right now that was the least of his preoccupations since, even thought he has escaped, the halfa was worried about the security of Amity Park, and was starting to miss his friends. That's why he hadn't touched his food since he was called for dinner, and Clockwork needed to leave in not too much.
They were both sitting in front of the other in a very large and old-fashioned wooden table; the room was huge and the walls where painted in green and was covered in clocks of different types and sizes. There was a big chandelier hanging from the roof that illuminated the whole place, and there were around ten chairs positioned at each side of the table vertically, and one chair at each horizontal side. This place was rarely used since its only purpose was to be the meeting place of the Great Authorities of the ghost zone when times of trouble. But it was at the same time the only place in the whole castle with a table to eat on, and so it was going to be used for Danny everyday while he stayed at Clockworks'.
"Danny, are you fine?" asked Clockwork after a long silence and little eating from the halfa's part.
"Yeah, I'm fine, thanks" Daniel answered with a fake smile, but at meeting the 'I know you are lying' face of the Master of Time, he added, "I'm just worried about my friends...and family"
"I know child, but not eating is not going to make you know" Clockwork replied giving the boy a supportive smile.
"I guess you are right" and so then Danny started to eat with a little more enthusiasm. For a very odd reason it felt good to be supported by someone as the Master of Time, maybe because of his authority and the thought that he had saved his future and the people who he cared the most for. The gratitude that the halfa felt for the old ghost (which ironically had just changed into the form of a child) was immense, but he still wondered why did Clockwork had received him, already prepared, and without asking or saying anything, "Can I ask you something?" he finally said.
The full ghost smiled, "Off course" changing into an old man.
"Why..." but Danny hesitated and then continued, "Why do you ask me things, if you already know the answers?"
"Because, my boy, I can only see many possible futures, and so then the outcome will be always a surprise for me" he answered in the simplest way he could without giving the child a headache.
"But I'm not refereeing to that, I mean, like you know it all, then why do you ask things like 'do you know your way to the bathroom?' " Clockwork grinned at this remembering what had happened two days ago, "or 'what do you want to eat?', you know, those kinds of things" Danny said puzzled, thought he had smiled a bit after seeing Clockwork laughing about the 'bathroom' comment.
But Clockwork didn't answered straight ahead, he smiled to Danny, stood up, and then added, "I need to go now, the Observants are waiting". The ghost disappeared behind the nearest door and before completely closing it, he gave a last look to the child and answered "Because I care", and then Danny couldn't feel him anymore, thought he had heard it all, and smiling, finished eating dinner.
