Hello everyone! And welcome to the next chapter of I AM STILL HERE! (Yes, it has to be in all caps, don't judge me.)

I've decided that I wanted to do something to scramble your brains a bit, and what better way to do that then with a little game of number sentences! In each game will be a little hint to the next chapter, so if you wanna know what might be next, then you need to figure it out! I'll be giving the answer at the start of each chapter that it represents.

(Hint: A=1, B=2, etc.)

Let's get this show on the road!

Warnings: Some mention of sexual themes, ooc for Danny at the end. If these things bother you, then this story is not for you.

.o.0.o.

Danny walks into his house and up to his room, hoping to get some sleep, only to be tackled to the floor by a black and white blur.

"Phantom! Get off me you big lug!" Danny grunts as he glares at the ghost.

Phantom, who wears a net shirt, black hip hugging jeans and a black sleeveless vest with silver boots, fingerless gloves and belt, tightens his hold and runs his lips along the pulse of Danny's neck, making the raven shiver and blush. He pulls back a bit, looking down at the blue eyed boy.

"You realize I'm not that heavy right?" The white haired male says dryly, "I'm a ghost, I weigh like, maybe three pounds max, if that much." Phantom smirks as he leans down and purrs in Danny's ear, "besides, you've never complained about it before, my little Golden Wraith~."

Danny blushes harder before he pushes the ghost off of him and gets to his feet, "that's different and you know it!" He says vehemently.

Danny had met Phantom at one of the ghost's concerts and both felt an immediate attraction to the other, though it did take a while for them to actually start dating. Phantom had taken to calling him his 'Golden Wraith' because Danny's powers were always gold in color and he always had this impression of 'being there, but not there' as some people call it.

Since Danny's accident at age fourteen with the ghost portal, Danny had powers that even Phantom said were not normal. He has a talent of knowing everything that goes on (or at least a hunger to learn about it), and has been known to be so quiet that he could scare the shit out of people by popping up out of nowhere. He still takes great joy out of surprising Sam and Tucker, much to their chagrin.

Phantom grins and startes floating in the air, hands crossed in front of him and legs raised behind him as if he is laying on a bed, "so, how was your first day of work? Anything interesting happen?"

Danny snorts, walking over to his bed and plopping down without bothering to change clothes, "about as interesting as the night shift can be," he replies, stretching his arms at his sides before folding them behind his head, "despite what the people who own the place think, there's nothing really there for some thief to want, and the attraction opens in a week so it's gonna be pretty chill for a while."

Danny glances over at Phantom, brow up and smirk on his face, "are you coming over, or am I sleeping alone this morning?"

Phantom chuckles, green eyes snapping in amusement before he floats over and lays beside the raven, pulling him into his arms. They lay there for a moment before his brow wrinkles, "hmm, I just realized something," Danny makes a noise to show that the ghost has his attention, "I don't think I like you having this job Danny. I mean, what if I need you for a show?" His frown turned into a wicked grin, "or a show~?" He purrs while moving his eyebrows.

Danny snickers, "Sorry Incubus, but you'll have to take care of it yourself or hope I'm not tired when I get home," he teases. Something that sounds akin to a cross between a tortured groan and a pathetic whine comes from above him as Phantom tightens his hold, wrapping his black tail around Danny's legs as if to trap him. Danny laughs at Phantom's actions.

"It'll be fine ya' big baby! The first week's supposed to be a breeze, so I won't be that tired. You'll get your chance."

Phantom makes a point of kissing Danny along his neck, making the blue eyed boy moan and his eyes flutter shut as shivers go down his spine. The ghost leaned in, intending to give Danny a real kiss, and Danny follows suit before turning his head slightly so the ghost hits his cheek instead of his lips.

"Unfortunately, that day is not today you horn toad," he says grinning cheekily before he turns his back to the snow head.

Phantom growls and mutters something along the lines of 'damn tease' under his breath. Danny doesn't say anything as he reaches over and sets his alarm on his phone before turning back and pulling Phantom to him again, relaxing with a sigh. He lets sleep and dreams overcome him with Phantom not far behind.

.o.0.o.

Later around eleven thirty, Danny, Sam and Tucker meet in front of the horror attraction for their shift, Tucker carrying his box of tools with him.

"I can at least do something about the wiring in the panel so it can reboot faster; it's too dangerous to go too long with out fresh air," explains the techno geek.

"You said that the wires in the cameras were lose right? Maybe I can fix those," Danny offers. When Tucker looks unsure, Danny deadpans, "I'm the son of inventors Tuck, I should at least know how to fix sketchy wiring. Besides, you can't reach the vent cams."

Tucker concedes the point and hands Danny the necessary tools before they enter the building, Danny splitting off from the other two to do his work. Sam and Tucker enter the office at the exact moment the phone rings and answers itself.

"Hey dudes and dudette! Ok, I have some awesome news for you! First of all: We found some vintage audio training cassettes! Dude, these are like, prehistoric! I think they were like, training tapes, for like other employees or something like that. So, I thought we could like, have them playing, like over the speakers while people walk through the attraction? Dude, that makes this feel, LEGIT man. But I have an even better suprise for you, and you're not gonna belive this! We found one. A REAL one. Uh, oh uhm, gotta go man! W-well look I-It's in there somewhere, I-I'm sure you'll see it. Okay, I'll leave you with some of this great audio I found. Talk to you later guys!"

Click!

"What does he mean by they 'found one?'" Tucker wonders aloud.

Sam simply shrugs as she focused on the cameras. The goth grins when she sees Danny crystal clear in one camera, giving a smile and thumbs up before crawling into a vent next to him.

"Oh, Hello! Hello, hello! Uh, welcome to your new career as a perfomer/entertainer, for Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. Uh, these tapes will provide you, with much needed information on how to handle/climb into/climb out of, mascot costumes. Right now, we have 2 specially designed suits, that double as both animatronic and suit! So please, pay close attention while learning how to operate these suits, as accidents/injury/death/irreparable and grotesque maiming can occur. First we will discuss how to operate the mascots when they are in Animatronic form. For ease of operation, the animatronics are set to turn and walk towards sound behavior, giving an easy and hands free approach, to making sure the animatronics stay where the children are, for maximum entertainment/crowd pleasing value. To change the animatronics to Suit mode, insert and turn firmly the hand crank, provided by the manufacturer. Turning the crank will recoil and compress the animatronic parts around the sides of the suit, providing room to climb inside. Please make sure the spring lock is fastened tight, to ensure the animatronic devices remain fit. We'll cover this in more detail, in tomorrow's session. Remember to smile, you are the face of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza."

Tucker frowns, "Wouldn't it have been easier to buy a regular mascot costume? That sounds really dangerous to have machines like that," he says glancing at the phone with a furrowed brow.

"They probably just wanted to try something new," Sam replies shrugging before a sardonic smile crossed her features, "and knowing big corporations like that, they probably figured it would save money; a two for the price of one deal."

"Yeah I gue-AHHHH!!!" Sam hears a screech behind her and turns to see Tucker on the floor, panting with a hand on his chest.

"What happened?" Sam asks worriedly.

"B-big mechanical f-fox thing...I j-just looked up for a second and the thing jumped m-me!" Tucker stammers with bulging eyes. The alarm startes going off signifying a ventilation error so Tucker quickly jumps to his feet to reboot it.

"'Fox thing'?" Sam says brow creasing and lips turning down. She glances back at the camera and jumps out of her skin when what looks like a chard statue of a little boy is staring right into the camera.

"What the f-" She yelps as she feels something grab her and acting quickly, whips around and fires her wrist ray, eyes going as big as saucers when she sees the same little boy against the wall glaring at her before it hisses at her and disappears.

"What the hell was that thing?!" Tucker says breathlessly as he reboots the ventilation system again.

"I have no idea," is Sam's response as she slumps in her chair, "but I think it might have been a ghost."

"It's not like any ghosts we've dealt with before," Tucker comments before he looks at the camera monitor and freezes at what is on it, "what the fuck is that?!" He yells pointing at the monitor.

Sam frowns before turning to look, her eyes going wide again at what is coming in through the crystal clear screen.

.o.0.o.

Meanwhile, Danny has just gotten done with fixing most of the cameras and is going to the next room when he gets a chill again, coupled this time with the slimy feeling of being watched.

'Now that I'm paying attention I can't believe I didn't notice how heavy the air feels in here,' Danny thinks as he looks around warily, 'it's so thick I can barely breathe!'

The feeling is familiar too. Strangely enough, Danny thinks he would like the feeling if it isn't for the dark presence overshadowing it. Alarms go off in his head at the feeling of grief, rage and destruction.

It is so strong that it makes Danny sick, makes him feel so much anger and betrayal that it nearly knocks him off his feet. Especially when the negative emotions seem to settle into him like an old friend.

He sees something out of the corner of his eye, slinking in the shadows of the room. He carefully follows the creature with his eyes, muscles tense as the feeling of danger intensifies. His fists light up with a golden energy as he automatically goes into a battle stance before he gasps at the thing the light reveals.

It is grotesque, looking like a greenish yellow zombie rabbit with wires and greyish brown something showing through the tatters of the skin. Half of its right ear is missing and the sides of its mouth have rotted away, leaving a wide permanent grin on its face that sends chills up the blue eyed boy's back. The eyes are a glowing grey with ominous white pupils that seem to somehow widen in surprise; it probably wasn't expecting Danny, who looks like a normal human, to have powers.

Flashes that are too quick to understand go through Danny's mind, making him feel dizzy from whiplash as he continues to stare at the creature, the only things registering in his brain being that terrifyingly familiar smile and the thoughts of: 'shouldn't be here, he shouldn't be, he was dead, I saw it, how is he here hE Was SuPpoSEd tO Be GOnE!!!'

The monster seems to snap out of its shock as it takes a step closer, "Naaaaathhhhaaaannn..." it groans sibilantly.

Danny takes a step back but doesn't go any further. He can't, even as he keeps mentally urging his legs to move they seem to stick to the ground. The golden light in his hands fizzles out, plunging the room into semi darkness; the only thing truly visible being the creature's glowing white eyes as it walks closer.

Danny squeezes his eyes shut, air stalling in his lungs as he waits for the creature to grab him when a familiar child's voice suddenly calls out from the next room over. He opens his eyes to see that the creature has stopped advancing, looking away from the raven and to the direction the voice came from. A giggle is heard from the same room and Danny watches, holding his breath as the zombie animatronic turns and heads towards the voice. He doesn't waste the opportunity and zooms toward the office as fast as he can, feet not even touching the ground in his rush to safety.

He gets to the office and huddles in the corner by the filing cabinet, hands tugging violently on his raven locks as he clenches his eyes shut, trying to block the world out. He vaguely hears his friends calling his name and jumps when he feels arms wrap around him, relaxing slightly when he recognizes Sam's small hand moving soothingly up and down his arm.

"Danny? Are you okay? What just happened out there?"

Danny shakes his head, his eyes so huge it is amazing that they don't fall out of their sockets, "he was supposed to be gone, how is he here?"

"You mean that thing out there?" Tucker inquires. Danny nods numbly, "Leo said something about finding a 'real one', I think he might have meant that animatronic. It certainly fits into a horror attraction, that thing looked rank."

"What do you mean he's supposed to be gone?" Sam asks gently.

Danny shudders, not completely aware of what he was saying, "He was supposed to be dead...we killed him I was the one that chased him into the suit..." He grabs on to Sam, sobbing like a child that had seen something terrible.

"I thought he was dead..."

.o.0.o.

What does Danny mean? Why was he acting that way? What will Phantom do when he finds out? All these will be answered soon! Until then, figure out this sentence!
