Hey everyone! I just wanted to say THANKS to all who reviewed! It means A LOT to me :D! Ok well I'm going to stop talking and let you get to the story. Hope you enjoy it!

I don't own Danny Phantom! Because really if I did would I be on here?


The group kept running as fast as they could. Their chests heaving, their legs aching, and sweat pouring down their faces. None of them stopped however, as they all wanted to get as far away from Walker jail as possible.

As Danny ran, he kept telling himself to keep moving, that they needed to get farther away. Every few minutes, Danny would look back to see if Walker's guards were following. To Danny's surprise, he didn't see a single guard.

After ten minutes of running, no one could go any further. They all stopped and collapsed on the ground. Everyone was gasping for air and most of them could hardly move.

Out of all of them Danny was feeling the worst, his breathing was raspy, and he was starting to tremble.

A few more minutes past and everyone was regaining their breath and strength. Everyone that is, except for Danny. He fell to the ground, still breathing hard.

Suddenly, Danny sat up, bent over, put a hand over his mouth, and started coughing violently.

Maddie jumped up, completely forgetting how tired she was, and ran over to Danny. She knelt down and started rubbing his back soothingly. Maddie looked at Danny, then gasped. Blood was trickling out of his hand!

Maddie knew that she couldn't do anything till he stopped coughing. So she just continued rubbing Danny's back, all the time freaking out inside.

When Danny's coughing fit was over, he fell backwards, gasping for air. His lungs felt like they were on fire!

Sam saw the blood on Danny and rushed over. She put a hand on his forehead, but yanked it away quickly. Danny's fever had gone up considerably.

Everyone was staring at him again, his friends and family were all silently cursing Walker.

All Danny could feel was pain, his whole body felt like it was on fire. With his mind clouded in pain, all Danny could do was curl into a ball. He didn't cry, he didn't scream, he just lay there.

Everyone wished they could do something to help him, even Dash, but no one had a clue what to do.

When the pain finally died down to a tolerable ache, Danny sat up and groaned.

"How are you feeling Danny?" Maddie asked worriedly, before she could stop herself.

"I've been better," Danny chuckled, trying to lighten the mood.

Maddie sat down and wrapped her arms around Danny, as she tried to fight the tears in her eyes.

Jack got up, walked over to Danny, and sat down next to him. He put a hand on Danny and looked at his ill son. Tears were starting to form in his eyes too and it took all of him not to shed those tears. His own son was dying, and there was nothing he could do about it.

A few minutes later Danny's eyes started to close, soon he was asleep in his mothers arms.

It was only then that Maddie and Jack let their tears fall.


Danny was asleep for several hours. The A-list kids managed to get some sleep, but everyone else just stared at Danny, worry written on their faces.

When Danny finally woke up he pulled away from his mother, who looked relieved he was awake, but worried at the same time, and started searching for his backpack. When he found it, he zipped it open, pulled out his water bottle, and drank the whole thing.

He then got up and looked around till he found what he was looking for, a water hole. Danny knelt down and filled his water bottle, then chugged it down. He repeated this five times, before he filled it up again, walked over to the edge of the path, and washed the dry blood of his hands. He then went back to the water, filled up his cup one last time, and went back to the group, with the A kids starting to wake up, and Lancer, Jack, Maddie, Tucker, and Sam waiting for him to say something.

Danny looked at his watch and said. "We need to get moving, if you want to fill up your water bottles do it now."

Everyone nodded and went over to the water hole.

After Maddie filled up her cup, she went over to Danny and asked. "Are you feeling any better?"

"Yeah, a little," Danny replied.

Once everyone was done filling up their water bottles they all set off.

After only an hour of walking Danny was exhausted. His eyes were starting to droop, and he was having difficulty putting one foot in front of the other.

It finally became too much for him, Danny staggered and fell to the ground.

Sam and Maddie instantly rushed over and helped him up.

"You OK, Danny?" Sam asked gently.

Danny looked at her with hazy, and tired eyes. He managed to force a smile on his face and said to her. "I'm fine, I just tripped is all."

"Danny, why don't you climb up on my back and rest for the next hour?" Maddie said.

Danny was about to protest and say that he was fine, but Maddie stopped him and said. "Danny, you can hardly walk. I'm not suggesting you let me carry you. I am telling you."

Danny sighed and reluctantly nodded. He went over to his mother, climbed on her back, and they started off again. Danny lay his head on his mothers shoulder and let sleep take him.

They walked for another hour before they decided that it was time to take a break. Danny woke up just as Maddie was gently setting him down. He sleepily told his mom to wake him up in half an hour. She nodded and Danny went back to sleep.

Half an hour later they set off, with Danny walking again.

Fifteen minutes into walking, Danny all of the sudden started feeling worse. He looked at his hand to find that he was shacking a little. Danny didn't think anymore about it.

Then a couple minutes later Danny suddenly dropped to his knees and started shaking violently.

"Danny!" Sam and Maddie cried.
