I do not own Danny Phantom
Danny groaned as he started to wake up. The first thing he realized was his head hurt. The second was that he was in a bed. Hadn't he passed out outside? Danny remembered a car that had almost hit him. Had the driver brought him here? Was he in a hospital? Wait, that wasn't it. There was no beeping from the heart monitor.
Danny felt something move beside him on the bed. He opened his eyes, and turned his head to the right. What he saw was the top of a grey haired man's head. The man was asleep. He was sitting in a chair beside the bed, with his head resting on the edge of the bed His head was laying on his arms. Danny sat up to get a better look at the man. He was wearing a black suite, and his grey hair was past his shoulders in a pony tail. He also had a patch of grey hair on his chin. Danny reached over and poked the man on the shoulder. When he didn't move or wake up, Danny pushed on his head.
Vlad had ended up falling asleep not long after calling Danny's school. He hadn't slept in almost two days. He was in the middle of a dream he hadn't had in a long time when he felt something poke him in the shoulder. He ignored it, opting to finish him dream. He then felt something push on his head. Vlad opened his eyes and lifted his head. When he lifted his head, his bull blue eyes met with the brightest ice blue eyes he'd ever seen.
"Excuse me." Danny said.
"You're awake." Vlad sat up in his chair. "How do you feel?" He asked the teen.
"Okay I guess. My head hurts a little, and my throat is dry, but other than that, nothing else seems to be wrong." Danny answered.
"That's good." Vlad said. He then called for Terri to bring something for Danny to drink. The woman brought the water, and Danny downed it quickly.
"Thank you." Danny said. He looked at the man. "I'm Danny by the way." He said.
"Yes Daniel, I saw your ID. I'm Vlad Masters. It's nice to meet you." Vlad said.
Danny took a deep breath. The last thing he wanted to talk about was his parents, but he had to know if Vlad had called them or not. "Have you contacted my parents yet?" He asked the older man.
"Not exactly. The only ID you had in your wallet was your student ID, and the only number on it was the number to your school, so I called Casper High. And they told me the strangest thing about you young Daniel." Vlad said.
"Really? What did they tell you?" Danny asked, afraid his parents had told the school about his accident and that he was a ghost or something. He didn't want this man to know what he had become.
"They told me you had an incurable illness." Vlad said.
"An incurable illness? I don't have an incurable illness." Danny then thought of his new ghost powers. Where they considered an incurable illness to him parents.
"Okay, but that's not all they told me. When the woman answered the phone, I inquired about you, and she told me you no longer went to that school. She told me that you had died the night before from an incurable illness. But that can't be right. I'm looking at you right now, and you don't look like you've died from a illness." Vlad said.
"I don't have, nor have I ever had, an incurable illness. My parents and I had a falling out of sorts. I don't want to talk about it. Do you want me to leave now?" Danny asked.
"Of course not. You can stay as long as you want." Vlad said. "But I would like to call in my personal doctor to look you over. I want to make sure nothing is wrong."
Danny thought for a minute. Was it really okay if the doctor came to look at him? Would she want to call his parents? "I don't know about this." He said to the older man.
"Don't worry Daniel. Dr. Dinah will not say anything about you being here. I promise. As long as nothing happens to her, she'll keep her mouth shut." Vlad said. "I promise you she will not call your parents."
"Okay." Danny agreed after a minute of thinking.
"Okay. Wait right here until I get back. I'm going to go call her." Vlad left the room to call Dr. Dinah.
"What is it Masters?" Dr. Dinah said when she answered the phone.
"Dinah. How are you? Would it kill you to show a little pleasantries?" Vlad said. "I need your help with something. I almost hit a kid with my car last night." Vlad added when Dr. Dinah said nothing.
"Masters!" Dr. Dinah exclaimed.
"I said I almost hit him. I didn't actually hit the kid. I brought him to my house after he passed out from exhaustion. Will you please come look him over and see if he's okay? You know, with no questions asked." Vlad asked.
"Alright Masters, but only once." Dr. Dinah hung up the phone and Vlad went back into the bedroom with Danny.
"Dr. Dinah will be here shortly. She will ask no questions, and make sure you're okay." Vlad said to the teen.
"Okay Vlad." Danny said.
"Would you like to change clothes? Johnson will wash your old clothes for you." Vlad asked.
"Sure." Danny agreed.
Vlad helped him change clothes because Danny was a little week from having ran so long and passing out. He put on a red t-shirt and blue jeans.
Thirty minutes later, Johnson walked into the room with a woman following behind him. The woman was tall and had red hair. "Dr. Dinah is here Master Vlad." Johnson said.
"Thank you Johnson." Vlad said. "Good day Dinah. This is Daniel." Vlad said.
Dr. Dinah looked at the teen sitting on Vlad's bed. "Hello Daniel." She said.
"Danny." Danny corrected.
"Alright Danny. Is it okay if I look you over and make sure you're okay?" Dr. Dinah asked.
"Yeah." Danny said.
Dr. Dinah looked Danny over. She checked everything she could think to check at someones home. "He's perfectly fine. I see nothing wrong with him. He looks really healthy. Defiantly not like he was almost hit be a car in the rain." She said to him.
"Thank you Doctor." Danny said, pulling the t-shirt back over his chest and stomach.
"Yes, thank you Dinah." Vlad said. "Let me walk you out. I'll be right back Daniel." Vlad followed the Doctor out and to the front door.
"I'm not going to ask Masters, and I'm not going to tell, but be careful." Dr. Dinah said, walking out of the house and into her car.
"I will Dinah. You don't have to worry about me." Vlad said to himself as he shit the door and started back up the stairs to his room.
Danny was left sitting on the bed again. He thought of his family. He missed his sister and his friends, but he knew he couldn't go back. His parents would cut him up and experiment on him. Danny shivered at the thought.
Vlad come into the room. "At least you have a clean bill of health." He said, smiling at him.
"Yeah. That's good." Danny said, smiling back.
Here is chapter 2 again. I'm sorry for the first version going missing and being replaced with chapter 1. I hope this one works for you who have already read through the story before. I can't for the life of me remember what I wrote in the original version. If you know and I didn't put it in this chapter, please let me know so I can. Thanks for understanding.
