AN: A gift from gothgirl01 to Lily Fenton Phantom (for Christmas, if I'm not mistaken). I can only hope both of you are satisfied and enjoy it.

I do not own Danny Phantom.

Hormones

School Days

Introspection

It shouldn't have been that easy and it sure as hell shouldn't have felt that good.

The dull clang as his head hit the locker.

He was a hero dammit! He didn't do things like that! He should have kept control of himself, just like all the countless other times. Just bend your head and take the abuse and know you were better than them.

The crunch of his nose, breaking.

But no. He had to insult Sam and stupid pride reared its head. Why? Why would he risk everything for something so trivial?

Except it wasn't that trivial, was it?

The explosive breath, misted with red.

He had loved to that he could finally put Dash in his place. He shouldn't be bullying people anyway. He could endure him bullying the guys, but girls as well? He deserved what he got.

Blood stained his knuckles, dripping to the floor.

He did the right thing, didn't he? He had protected Sam and made sure a bully would think twice before he started his old tricks. Just look at what bullying did to Point Dexter, for crying out loud! Wasn't it his duty to do what was necessary to prevent it from happening again?

Shock in their eyes, seeing the victim strike back.

What did it matter what those stupid jocks thought? They didn't try to stop Dash. They were just a guilty! Most of them were bullies every bit as bad as Dash. They learned the lesson – a victim could always strike back.

Disgust in violet eyes as he led her away.

But Sam…

What did she see?

Who was the victim, who was the bully?

Dash, who had for years bullied him, always careful never to draw blood or leave big bruises?

Or himself, who used his powers in a petty act of vengeance and broke a boy's face?

Red eyes, burningburnINGBURNING

What did he do? He didn't do things like that. Danny Fenton didn't do things like that. Danny Phantom didn't do things like that.

He did things like that.

All fangs and teeth and mocking sneers

Danny stared into the mirror. Watching for a glimpse of that rage, that hatred. Watching his mouth to see if it would turn to that haunting sneer. His eyes, blue or green or red?

Who was he?

"…means you still turn into me."

"I'm inevitable."


AN: Who remembers the author note in chapter 5? The one that said someone will get a reward-chapter? Well here it is.

After some debate as to the content of the chapter, it is finally here. A chapter about 'Danny and evil Dan Phantom.'

Anyway, this is set after School Days – Brutal. Danny's most likely in the bathroom at school or (less likely, but still possible, at home).

I'm also not quite sure if Danny heard/knows about the part where Dan said to Jazz "Nice try Jazz, but me, my future, I'm inevitable."; but I REALLY wanted the inevitable part in this chapter. That's why it's a double quite, as I KNOW Danny heard the other one.

Not much else to say about this chapter.

BUT – I think I'm going to make every fifth chapter a reward chapter (first one to PM me or give a review gets the opportunity to request a chapter). Unfortunately, this might cause a delay in updates when I come to the reward-chapter (such as chapter 9, 14 and 19) but it'll most likely not be as severe as this one.

Anyway, if my readers are interested in such an arrangement, you must follow a couple of rules:

No repeats. That means if you won a chapter before, you may not again. Sorry, but it is to keep things fair in terms of time-zones and such.

I will listen to your suggestion, but I am not obligated to follow it to the letter. I will try my best to include as much of your idea as I can manage though. This is mainly so that I can opt out of certain scenarios I feel I can't do justice.

You have one day to give me your idea. If we are debating over the merits of the idea or possible substitutes, I may extend the time-limit.

Things I will not do: OC's, slash (male/male; female/female), crossovers, AU or using characters from other fanfictions.

Anyway, keep a eye out for every fifth chapter.

In the mean time…

Read, enjoy and review.
