HalfafanD: Hello readers of all ages! *snicker* I've always wanted to do that. Anyway, sorry for not finishing this sooner; I've been WAY busy. So… you get the idea. Here's the chapter, and Danny's torture! I know; I'm evil! XD

Disclaimer: I consider it against the law for me to own Danny Phantom!

Mysterious Magician

Tucker and Sam looked at their hybrid friend in shock. His head hung low; hair covering his eyes. Usually, his eyes were sparkling baby blue eyes; full of determination and compassion. But now they looked dull and clouded, as if he wasn't even here.

"Oh no. Tucker, it's happening again." Sam whispered worriedly. She placed both hands on Danny's shoulders and began to shake him. "Danny, Danny wake up. Please answer me." She begged before a hand was felt on her shoulder. She turned to find that the hand belonged to Tucker.

"It's no use Sam. He can't hear you. He only hears that Magic Magician guy." Sam sighed. Tucker was right; there was nothing they could do to wake him up.

Meanwhile, Danny's mind was in a foggy haze. Everything was a blur to him. He couldn't see anything but a tall man in a top hat. Who was he again? Danny couldn't seem to remember. Heck, he couldn't even remember why he was here! All he knew was that the man was saying something and he needed to listen, though he didn't know why.

Sheen perused the audience in search of Phantom. Upon finding not even a single white hair, it was obvious the ghost boy was in disguise. He then searched the audience again, this time more closely. He then spotted a fourteen year old freshman sitting in the eighth row somewhere in the center. His hair was raven black and seemed to fall over his face witch hung low. But Sheen was still able to see those familiar clouded eyes he saw when he hypnotized Phantom; the only difference is that they were ice blue, not emerald green. It was obvious the boy was under his control. But just to be sure, he'll have to find out more about him. Immediately, he faked a disappointing sigh and finally spoke up.

"Well, I guess he's not coming out. It might be possible he wasn't even here. But either way, he's not here. But I'll be honest, you were a great crowd. Give your selves a hand." He began to clap and eventually the audience joined him.

Sam and Tucker stared, surprised at Sheen's sudden disappointment failure. They were about to ask each other what just happened when they heard a teenage boys voice sounding exactly like Danny's.

"What happened, where am I?" The two turned to see Danny staring at them confusingly.

"You were hypnotized again, dude. Don't know how, but you were. And then that magician guy just called it quits and you snapped out of it." Tucker explained.

"Dang it." Danny muttered, smashing his fist into his forehead. Feeling stupid for falling for that again.

"Yeah. I think that since you were hypnotized before by him, he was able to do it again without as much trouble as last time." Sam assumed.

"Great, now what. If he finds out my secret, he's going to blab to everyone and then the Guys in White will be after me." Danny rambled. He had always worried of what would happen if anyone other than Sam, Tucker, and Jazz would find out that Danny was half ghost. The Guys in White would probably capture him and do tones of really painful experiments, his parents would tear him apart "molecule by molecule", and everyone at school would treat him like a freak!

Sam never liked when Danny freaked out like this. Finally she spoke up. "Danny, Let's just go to your place, we can figure something out there with Jazz."

"Okay." Danny sighed. And the three headed off home.

Danny, Sam, Tucker, and Jazz all sat in Danny's room, trying to figure out a solution, but all came up empty handed. They were at this for a few minutes until the ring of a doorbell rang through the house.

"I'll get it!" Maddie shouted from down stairs. They heard the door open and Maddie talking to the visitor. There was a conversation going on down there but it was hard to tell what the conversation was about. The voice was male, a grown male from what they could tell, but still no one knew who it was. They were about to go back to finding a solution when they heard Danny's mom call them from down stairs.

"Kids! Get down here! Someone wants to see you." She called in a sing-song voice. The teens quickly descended down the stairs only to gasp at whom they saw standing in the doorway: Sheen.

HalfafanD: DONE! YES! Sorry that one took so long. I'll stay more on top of these. It's just school work has multiplied since the Star test is not that far away. Please understand. Please review, no flames.
