Chapter 10 : Dealing with the Problems

He never thought he would make it. The black abyss never grew and never shrunk. He felt tight, small. He felt as though he couldn't breath, heaving breaths of air with all his might. He was lost and didn't know where to go. There was nothing. No one. He was alone.

The child shivered, but there was no wind or cold, or heat. He was shaking. He was frantically looking around, as though he was waiting for someone. Someone who he feared, someone who he wanted to go away.

"Never, child…" a voice rang, but there was no body attached to that voice.

The boy held his knees close to his chest, trying to make himself disappear, mumbling words, that were not a human language.

"Just give up, before you humiliate yourself…"

The boy winced, he hated this, he hated everything. He hated everyone. Everyone, who hurt him. Everyone, who underestimated him. Everyone, who thought he was useless and weak. Everyone, who thought he was evil and hateful. Everyone, who never cared.

But he still loved those who did believe him. Those, who knew what he was capable of. Those, who saw him as good. Those, who cheered him on and helped him through the tough times. Those, who fought at his sides, never backing down. Those, who fixed up his mistakes. His family, his friends, his allies.

The child thought of the good, wiping the tears that stung his face and stood, with a small smile. He took deep breaths.

"You can't get rid of me that easily…"

He grinned, "I've done it before, I can do it again."

"Never…"

"Always…" he countered.

The voice shrieked, but not in pain or hurt. He disappeared, until the only thing the boy heard was his own shallow breaths. As he looked around the black hole, he felt his heart clench. How was he going to escape? He was stuck in here, not knowing how to get out. He was lost, trapped and confused.

"Child," this voice was sweet and caring. The boy turned and he smiled big.

"Where are we?" he asked.

The voice sighed, "Somewhere you will never have to worry about again."

The boy tilted his head. "Where is here?"

"Your dark side. You've learned to overcome your fears and live a life you created."

The boy nodded. "How long have I been here?"

"Time will tell you. For now, why don't you wake up."

The boy lowered his eyes, "How?"

"Believe, Daniel…"

"Clockwork, wait…!"

Danny didn't feel heavy, he felt light, like a feather or a pillow. He opened his eyes and the room was dark. No one in the room, but certainly on the out. Shadows appeared on the window of the door and Danny sat up. Muffled voices were shouting, trying to keep it down low, but failed.

Danny looked down at his body, he didn't have his jumpsuit anymore, just the bare scars he owns from so many fights. His right eye burned, so he put a hand on it. A long cut, from his eyebrow to his cheek, was permanently scarred. He swallowed, feeling a lump forming in his throat. His fingers were free from his gloves and were shaking like he was an old man.

Fear. Not again. He was shaking in fear and weakness. No, he repeated in his head, closing his eyes and clenching his fists. He was getting scared, but he couldn't. He wouldn't. He was free again and he wasn't going to lose that now.

The door creaked open, but Danny didn't open his eyes, or release his fists, still repeating no.

"Danny?"

He didn't pay much attention to the person. Not even a glance up, did he spare them. He simply stared into the darkness behind his eyelids.

The person, however, didn't care. They wrapped their arms around Danny's thin body, crying and sobbing.

Danny shot his eyes open and met amethyst eyes, bloodshot and dull. Danny's heart squeezed, as his insides turned. He released his fists and wrapped them around the hourglass figure.

"Sam?"

She gripped the ghost boy's white hair, her hands shaking, madly. "It's ok, Danny. Everything's going to be ok."

Danny nodded, holding Sam closer to him. "Wait. Dani. Where's Dani? Is she...?"

"Slow down, Danny," Sam said, cupping his face. "Dani's fine. Only frightened. Danny... we're not worry about her, as much as you."

Danny's face contorted. "What do you mean? How long have I been out? Is there something wrong with my face?" Danny asked, eyes widening.

Sam giggled. "No your face is still handsome, but you've been out only for the night. Which we were all thankful for. The problem is..."

The door opened again, but Danny could only see raven locks of hair. "Daddy!" the little ghost girl shouted and ran over to Danny. "This is all my fault. I was distracted and Vlad took advantage. I didn't fight back and now, your hurt and it's all my fault. I'm sorry, daddy," she rambled on with tears running down her face, shaking her head on his shoulder.

Danny's eyes brimmed with tears. "No, Dani. It isn't your fault. It isn't anyones, but Plasmius'. He did this and he wanted it to happen. If anything, I'm sorry. I'm sorry I scared you and put you in harms way," he said in her ear, his cold breath making her slightly flinch.

"Danny," Sam said, adding onto the breath-taking hug. "You were just being a hero and a dad. You couldn't have done anything about Plasmius' stupidness. You're both ok and that's all that matters."

Danny pulled away. "What exactly happened to my body? Seeing as Dani has nothing more than a small bruise," he asked, twisting the snowflake necklace he had given her.

"Well," Tucker started, with a concerned look on his face, as he leaned against the door frame. "Nothing major, except for your almost-coma-episode, scaring the crap out of us, and your mom trying to interrogate Dani and Sam because you share a daughter. Anyways, you only have that cut on your eye and your leg, which is pretty infected, seeing as it opened many times and Frostbite has no way have making his heal faster," he explained.

"Woahwoahwoah. My mom was interrogating Dani because she's my daughter?" Danny asked, with his eyebrows pinched together. He was pissed.

The three nodded. "She believed I was seeing Phantom and cheating on Danny, she started asking questions, while I was comforting Dani and you were laying unconscious," Sam said. "Do you know how many times I've thought about killing her?"

Danny smirked. "Many, I know. As for the class and Plasmius?"

"The class is in the dungeon. Mommy wasn't very happy about them leaving the room," Dani piped in.

Sam sighed, "They said the door wasn't locked, when you put your mom and dad in there. I wasn't happy that they disobeyed your orders. Especially when you could've lost your secret identity."

Danny nodded, "The fruitloop?"

"I had Fright Knight and his horse take him to the ghost holding cell," Tucker answer.

"He won't be staying long," Danny mumbled, getting out from under the blankets

"What do you mean, Daddy?" Dani asked, backing away from the bed.

Danny looked to her with eyes of hated. She had never seen him like this before, it made her flinched slightly. He took a deep breath. "Plasmius knows how to get out of traps. He knows how to bribe someone and get his way," Danny growled.

Dani looked down, knowing he was correct. She didn't like Vlad either and wished he didn't exist anymore. He was wishing the same thing for her and Dani feared him, he could end her and he proved that. A shudder was sent down her spin.

Danny put his feet on the cold floor and stood, only for his legs to feel like jello. Sam grabbed his arm, before he could fall.

"Danny, your body is unstable, you need to rest," she said, not suggesting, she was demanding.

He ran a hand through his soft white locks. "I know, Sam, but I need to do things. The kingdom has been independent for the past few days and I don't like that very much. Once I have things settled, that'll be the time I rest," he told her, as he took the crutches Tucker was handing to him.

"OK, if you're sure about this," Sam told him, still skeptical about his decisions.

He walked out into the hall, with the three close by. "What's first on the 'Fix the problems I created' list?"

Dani and Sam rolled their eyes, ah his hero side, always taking the blame.

Tucker smirked, "Well, you got the class, your parents, the portal, dinner and Plasmius. I suggest you work with the first two, now."

Danny smiled back, but it faltered. "What I'm still curious about is why I came out with two large cuts and Dani is fine. Though I'm grateful, you didn't explain that," he said, walking farther down the hall and then turned right.

"We don't know, not even Frostbite knows. You could have banged into something on your way down or because you were going 300 mph, your body could barely handle it. That's why you passed out," Tucker said, tapping furiously on his PDA.

"Come to think of it, I can't remember anything after I jumped. Should we be concerned?" Danny asked and received three deadpanned nods. "Ok, so, first the class?" he asked, after a nervous chuckle.

Dani groaned, "But I'm starving."

Danny lifted an eyebrow, but Sam quickly added, "We told Dani she could make dinner."

"It was a bet, to see who could find more mortals. I won with 12," Dani smiled and swayed back and forth, happily.

Danny bit on his lower lip. Then sighed, "Go ahead. Ask Kitchen if you need help with anything."

Dani's shoulders sagged, "But-"

"No 'buts', now go and make something edible," Danny pushed, playfully. She giggled and flew the opposite direction. The two lovebirds smiled, then turned to their red-faced, blown-up cheeks tech friend.

"Tucker, really? It's been months and you still can't get over it?" Sam asked, then punched his shoulder. He couldn't hold it anymore and busted out into a peal of laughter.

Danny rolled his eyes, unamused. "Can we get to my class, already? I am getting weak in the knees already," Danny said, walking down the hall and towards the basement.

Frostbite sat at a round table, deep in thought. The Great One was indeed greatly injured and there was no way to heal it faster than with his fast regeneration. He was to rest that day, but Plasmius came and furthered the King's injuries.

"Frostbite?"

Frostbite looked up and there sat, looking at him, was Clockwork. "You don't need to worry. Daniel will be fine. In fact, he's on his feet right... now," he said with a smile.

The yeti growled, "That doesn't please me. Why is the Great One doing this?"

Clockwork sighed, "Because there are things around the kingdom that cannot be dealt with, unless Daniel approves. He's going to see his class right now, if you want to catch up with him."

He thought about this. The Far Frozen leader wasn't happy at the moment and did not want to take it out on the boy. With a breath of air, he stood and made his way to the door. "Thank you, Clockwork. If that is all, you may go back to your clock tower," he dismissed the Master of Time.

Clockwork followed him, "And go back to the Observants? No thanks, I'll stay here for a little while."

Frostbite smiled, "I'm sure the Great One will be most pleased." With that he took off down the carpeted and furnished hallway.

He turned around and saw a dark haired and green eyed girl, looking at photos with an ectogun in hand.

"Everything is the way it's supposed to be..." and disappeared into thin air.
