DISCLAIMER: I don't own Danny Phantom


Chapter 8

Father of a Hybrid

Danny woke up to the sound of fire crakleing. He was in a cabin, laying on a small bed. He slowly sat up, and instantly felt pain in his left shoulder, he winced. "Be careful, you don't want to strain it." A voice said. "Silver is like acid to the vampire."

Danny turned to the direction of the voice. A man was sitting up against a wall. He had messy raven black hair that reached his ears, blue eyes, but Danny noticed that the man's hair fell over the right eye, covering it. He wore a black shirt, dark blue jeans, and black shoes. "I'd would appreciate it you'd stop staring." He said.

"W-Who are you?" Danny questioned shakly, he didn't know if the man was a threat yet, or not.

The man held up a hand. "No need to be scared boy. Name's Vito, what about you? What's your name?" The man asked.

Danny stayed quiet. He wasn't sure if he should say his name. After all... All the other vampires seemed to know who he was. "D-Danny." He then said after coming to a decision.

The man stared at him. 'Danny... Raven black hair, and ice blue eyes... Just like hers. Dušanka.' He thought. "I... I had a son named Danny. My lover had to give him away though." He said.

Danny blinked. "I'm sorry." He said.

Vito shook his head. "Don't be. It's the past... I'm sure my son is fine... You do remind me of him though. Appearance wise." He said, and the half-breed stared at Vito. He felt sorry for the man, but he didn't say anything. "You mind telling me why you're so far out here, and that man, Vlad, was shooting you?"

"You know him?" Danny asked.

Vito nodded. The two fell silent. Danny felt the uncomfortable silence, but he still didn't talk. Vito suddenly stood up, and Danny looked up at him. "You want somthing to eat kid?"

Danny only nodded, and watched as Vito walked into another room. After a minute, Vito walked back, a glass in his hand. "Here. I saw what happened, and you're going to need this." He said.

Eyes wide, Danny stared at the glass. He knew what was inside it, but... How did Vito know? and how did he get blood? Danny reached out a shakey hand, and grabbed the cup. Vito raised an eyebrow. 'Does he not like blood... or does he not like the thought of drinking it?' He asked himself. Danny took a drink, and shut his eyes tight to ignore the wonderful taste

"You don't like drinking it do you?" Vito asked him.

Danny set the glass down, and nodded at Vito. "Yeah, and... How..."

"Did I get the blood?" Vito finished, and got another nod. "When you have a vampire lover, then... Well... I wanted to be with my lover forever, and I asked her if..."

Danny watched as the man trailed off, lost in deep thought, and memories. "You asked her to turn you into a vampire didn't you?" He asked Vito.

Vito nodded. "I asked my lover to turn me into a vampire, but that was after we had our son. I wanted to be with them, but when my lover was forced to give our child away, I didn't know what to do. I ended up leaving, no one could find where I was." He explained, and Danny could only feel sorry for the man.

The two didn't say anything farther, and the air turned awkward. Danny drank the rest of the blood in the cup, and set the cup, far away from him. Vito kept his gaze at the fireplace, distant. Danny's eyes darted around the cabin, trying not to look at Vito. Suddenly, Vito stood up, and his head toward the door, his eyes narrowed. Danny looked, and waited. Just then the door busted open, and Danny blinked. Dušanka walked in, and she blinked at the sight of Vito and Danny. "V-Vito?" She asked carefully.

"Hello Dušanka." He said in a calm voice.

Danny looked between the two, feeling left out. 'He knows her? She knows him?' He asked himself. His eyes widen when he saw Dušanka envelope Vito in a hug. Vito only stood there, his eyes on the vampire queen. "I found you, after twelve years..." Dušanka sounded like she was about to cry. "I've cried, I've suffered, I've been alone all because you left without a word!"

Vito didn't reply, he didn't even look at her. Danny didn't know what to do, he remained still. "Dušanka..." Vito trailed off.

"I gave away our son, you was what I had left, and then you left me." Dušanka said, and pushed herself away from Vito. Her head was hung low, her hair covering her face. "Left without a word. Left me alone. No one. I had no one."

"But... I see you found him." Vito's eyes darted toward Danny.

"H-How did you know?" Dušanka questioned.

Vito pushed the vampire queen off, and turned her around to face Danny. Her ice cold blue eyes stared at him. "Danny..."

"Uh... Hello Queen Dušanka." Danny said, and waved awkwardly.

Vito sighed, and looked at Dušanka with calm eyes. "I guess you haven't told Danny then?" He asked.

Danny blinked. Told him what? Dušanka didn't say anything, and she turned away, her back toward them. "He's not ready." She said, turned around, and walked toward the door. She stopped next to Vito. "Diru al li, kion vi volas diri lin kiu vi estas, mi klarigos kiu mi kiam mi kredas ke estas li estas preta."

Vito's eyes looked at her. Danny looked at the two in confusion. 'What language is she speaking?' He asked himself. Dušanka walked out of the cabin, leaving Danny and Vito alone. Vito didn't move, neither did Danny.

"Danny," Vito began suddenly, and the half-breed looked at him. "The son I mentioned... He is half human, half vampire, you are half human, half vampire... He is you, you are my son. I am your father."

Danny's eyes widen. 'He's my father?' He didn't know what to ask. His own father was standing before him. His real biological father. He didn't know what to say, feel, or even think. Vito stared at him, void of expression. Danny still didn't speak, and his eyes kept wandering around. After a few minutes of silence, Danny finally spoke.

"Y-You're my father?" He asked.

Vito nodded. "Yes, after you were born, your mother turned me into a vampire because I asked." He said. "You and your mother were the only reason I wanted my new life. Until..."

"Until she gave me away?" Danny asked sadly, and Vito nodded.

"But understand she did it to protect you." He then explained. "When some found out that you were born, a half-breed, they got angry, humans and vampires. You're mother quickly diposed of them before word got out." Vito's head turned toward the door, then back to Danny. "Go, I think they queen if waiting for you."

Danny nodded. "Okay, but are you coming with?" He asked.

Vito didn't reply, he stood there, but didn't look at his son. Danny was starting to get worried. He just met his father, and didn't want to be seperated from him. 'Please come with us.' Danny pleaed in his mind. Seeing his worried look, Vito sighed. 'If I go, I'll get to be with my son... And with Dušanka...' He thought, and then smiled. The half-breed brightened up when he saw his father's smile. The two nodded, and walked out of the cabin.
