Gabi: Thank you, oh, so much. This is the deepest fiction I have ever made. I loved some lines but I think that the idea, well, I thought it was cheesy. Anyways, here's the next chapter and of course, Happy Holidays.
Chapter 3 – Faster than Poison
Danny Fenton ran to a nearby cave. A bottle in his hands and his eyes glancing back to see if anyone is following him. He didn't want anyone to know that he was running away from all the pain of the world. He felt weak, truly weak. The minute he reached the cave, he allowed himself to sit on the floor. It was a cold floor, a cold life. Danny breathed heavily, a deep breathe, filling air in his lungs and getting rid of carbon dioxide.
He looked at the blue bottle. The label had a hundred warning signs. Words dipped in red, the color of blood. He felt his fresh cuts fall on the floor, making it wet. The drops feel like tears and for all Danny knew, he was at least safe from the world. The world of torture was soon going to be over.
It was poison. He wanted what he wanted though faster than poison. Danny could hear a hundred words that keep on repeating itself in his mind, making him feel tense. Those words he forgot to even mention in his letter though some words were mentioned. He had forgotten to say the most important words that flickered open in his mind each passing minute.
"I'm sorry…"Danny whispered to himself, opening the bottle, freeing the lid. There was no fortress standing between the poisonous drink and Danny, now.
Dreams always had hidden darkness,
Nightmares always had hidden light,
Drip drop, tick tock, those sounds that still linger,
Water that hasn't melted the ice,
Ice that were easily melting alone, into tears…
"Please, please, forgive me…" Danny whispered, weakly, staring at the liquid. Danny brought the liquid closer to him and each time he brought the liquid closer, it was writing the letter all over again. It was writing another page of life over again. Danny looked at the roof of the cave, dripping rain drops on his raven hair, making that sound over again. His eyes were never so innocent, they were never so scared. He had to make a choice.
He wanted to be held; he wanted to see light,
He felt foolish for believing all those lies,
It always rains, drip drop, when will it stop,
He doesn't know what to do, falling from Heaven's door,
He wants to leave, but only left breathless from tears…
His ultramarine blue eyes were forming tears. He was trembling, shaking from coldness. His life went flashing before his eyes though all he had seen was darkness. One moment felt like an eternity. He brought the liquid closer to him with two shaking hands. His face was getting pale, feeling the liquid going closer to his lips. His tears were falling freely, streaming tired down his cheeks. He felt himself enter a dark place where nothing seemed right.
His lips touched the poison and the minute Danny felt the poison's contents go through his body he felt great pain. He separated himself from what seemed like endless pain. Tears were still cascading down, twinkling in the light.
Danny took the lid and placed it back on the poison. He just couldn't take that pain, it was hard. Danny felt the remaining blue liquid on his lips burn through his skin. It hadn't gone through his stomach yet, it hadn't even entered his body. Danny whipped that bit off though pain still lingered. Danny shook his head. He couldn't poison himself. It was just too hard. He missed the tick tock sound of the alarm clock. He missed the rhythm that it had though there was nothing more than his family he missed at that moment.
He lay on the cold surface and at the moment, drifted off for his sleep where he was sure that peace would lie there… somehow.
Slowly start to freeze, put his heart to sleep,
Memory that he could always see,
So afraid, to crush down and lose his heart again,
To lose his mind, wonder what was thought…

His soft icy blue eyes looked up meeting cold navy blue ones. Jack was gripping tightly against Danny's hand. Danny looked down, looking at all the people down there, his mother and sister being down there whilst Jack decided to take Danny on a hike to the mountains.
Jack had already reached the top though Danny was still gripping his free hand on the mountain's edge. Jack smirked, looking at his son who was trying to hold on for dear life.
"To hell with you…" Jack whispered in Danny's ear. He looked at Danny's scared expression, secretly silently laughing at what Danny was going through. Danny looked down, little drops of tears falling from his pale face.
"P…p-please…" Danny stared deeper into Jack's eyes. He didn't want him and just a minute ago, Danny was trying to kill himself. Danny felt Jack's grip tighten even more. Danny wanted it to be because he would pull him up not to make him feel ore pain. Though he knew that he didn't like him, he wasn't what Jack wanted and possibly he wasn't what he wanted either.
"Don't…" Danny ended. Jack allowed himself to let go of his son's hand and for a minute, Danny felt like it was real. Though he wished it wasn't. He wished it wasn't real… please don't let it be real…
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"No… no…" Danny softly said. His eyes finally flickered open, looking at his location. He was still in the cave and by the looks of it; he didn't want to stay any longer. He breathed heavily, filling air in his lungs, deeper and deeper still.
Faster than poison,
Slower than life,
Only Heaven knows,
How he really feels inside,
He broke his heart,
For hurting him this way,
He doesn't know what to do…
Drip drop, drop stop,
Tick tock, He'll be here for him,
He must confess, this loneliness is killing him,
He's falling from Heaven's door,
Drop stop, it rains again,
When will tears stop? Drip drop…
Raining, it's pouring,
He tries so hard ignoring these tears,
Drip drop, someday soon,
Faster than poison,
Slower than life… try hard ignoring these tears.
