Wings of Phantom

Chapter 7 – The Other Half

Vlad's eyes widened as he watched Danny's eyes lose focus, and his expression went blank. His eyes closed slowly, only to fly back open. They're glow had increased ten fold and he looked distant. Vlad saw the teen's wings tense, then they began to flap hard. Large gusts of wind came blowing towards him, green and blue waves of raw energy hitting him like whips.

"Daniel?" he asked, fear in his voice. The teen smiled, only this time he had fangs, and they gave him a wicked look.

"I am the Fallen." He said. "Though you know me as Phantom. I am Danny's ghost half, and I cannot allow you to hurt Danny." He took on a determined look. "I will protect him at all costs."

Vlad felt raw fear grip him like a serpent, and his eyes widened as the flapping grew more frantic.

Danny looked around the blackness that surrounded his being, and hugged his arms. It was so cold. Where was he?

"Hello?" he called out. "Is anyone there?" he heard a few footsteps behind him, and gasped at what he saw. It was him only this Danny seemed to take on a different personality. He would never smile like that…

"Hello Danny." Said the other him. "I am Phantom, your ghost half." Danny's eyes widened. "I am the one who has been taking over your consciousness recently."

"Why?" asked Danny. Phantom chuckled.

"Because I must protect you." Said Phantom. "I cannot allow you to get hurt."

Danny looked scared, and he slowly approached the spirit. He reached forward, and tried to touch Phantom, only for him to feel a sharp pain in his hand when he did.

"I cannot help you all the time though." Said the ghost. "Only when you are in true danger, or when someone you love is a possible victim. And Danny, never forget this." he leaned forward, and smirked happily. "I am you. Without you, I cannot be, and without me, you can still stay alive, but the future will be a bloody one."

Danny cocked an eyebrow. "Does Clockwork have anything to do with this?" Phantom smiled, and winked, before Danny felt himself coming back into the real world.

Danny slowlyopened his eyes, and looked around at Phantom's handy work. His Parent's lab was a mess, and his Family was safe and untied. He smiled at them, and they smiled back, running up to him. Soon he was embraced in a large hug, one which he gladly returned.

"We're so proud of you sweetie." Said his mother.

Yeah, thanks for letting me use your body real quick. Danny's eyes widened.

Phantom?

In the mind.Said the ghost. Danny smiled.

So now you can talk to me in my mind?

Yep. So just call to me when you need me.

Danny sighed, and broke from his family's embrace. He looked around the room for Vlad, only to find he was no longer there.

"He ran away." Said his sister. "You scared him bad. It was almost like you were possessed…" Danny smiled.

"Yeah… Possessed…"
