Quick Summary: Larten and Danny were in the woods but then, trouble struck the young hybrid when Ember and Skulker showed up, demanding to take him to Freakshow! That's right, folks, the maniac is still out for blood, but then again...so is a young Danny Phantom...

A/N:Hey peeps! How yall doing today? Just a quick little thing, but I hope it satisfies you until I can get more out. Unfortunately, summer is fast approaching and I won't be able to update as often as I'd like. Mom still doesn't know about this account and I'd like to keep it that way. So I'll type what I can on my phone, but then transfer it to a computer when I go to my dad's. See you soon!

Danny's emerald eyes glazed over as he forgot about the pain from falling, forgot about where he was, forgot about who he was, all because of the glowing green jewels glistening in the sunlight. Everything faded away from him as he slowly rose from his position on the ground to advance purposefully on the wounded ghost teen before him. He never heard the questioning words from either Ember or the now blob-like Skulker; his suit had broken on impact, but again, Danny didn't take any of this into account. As soon as he stood at full height, his eyes narrowed and he lunged forward with a feral growl towards the ectoplasm just waiting to be taken.

A scream echoed around the sunlit trees, calling to everything within a two hundred mile radius for help of any kind. Danny paid it no mind, all he knew was the delectable taste on his tongue. He bit down, using his strength to break through more skin than before, speeding the flow of green liquid down his parched throat. It was like nectar to the newly Formed vampire! Nectar from the highest of gods from Olympus itself! But he didn't focus on that long, all he could focus on was the sheer taste, not describing it in his mind! That took up brain power that could be focused on more important things… Unfortunately for his blood lusted mind, another had heard the cries of the fading Ember and had flitted to her aid.

Crepsley came upon a ghastly scene where Phantom's mouth was clasped firmly around a bleeding wound on one of the ghosts that had kidnapped him. She was fading in and out of existence, as if no more than a figment of his imagination then a real life ghosts. On Danny's head was a small green blob, jumping up and down on his head, trying with all his small might to free his girlfriend from the monster Danny had become.

"No!" Larten cried. This was exactly the outcome he had hoped to avoid by following the ghost child. He ran forward, grasping at the younger's shoulder and trying to pry him off the flickering form of Ember. He didn't understand ghost physiology, but he was pretty sure that that was not good on any terms.

He pulled, managing just barely to tear the boy away before the pop star disappeared completely. Not a bright move on his part, as soon as Danny's attention was dragged literally away from the ectoplasm, he turned his bloodlust towards the vampire. He snarled, green liquid dripping from his lips as he did so.

"Stop this madness!" Larten screamed, holding his hands up in a defensive position that he tried to make seem non threatening.

Danny growled, but slowly, reason started to return to his green depths, making his offensive and animalistic posture relax. His eyes widened at what he had been about to do, at what he had done. With a quick jerk of his head, he saw an unconscious Ember McLain accompanied by a panicking Skulker. That same emotion raced through Danny's heart as he realized the sweet nectar he still had on his tongue…was Ember's blood. He shook his head in horror, backing away from the ghosts slowly, only stopping when he ran into the thick chest of the vampire behind him. He looked up sharply, trying to find some sort of comfort or solace in those dark eyes for his dark actions.

"I am so sorry," Larten whispered, breathing out over the ghost child, catching him when he shifted out of that form and into his human one as he lost consciousness.

(You like the story so far? Or am I losing you? Does it need more? And of what?)

Danny was getting annoyed. This was the second, or possibly the third since he had lost count, time that he had come out of unconscious! He did, however, get to count his blessing that at least he wasn't hurt this time, and he was still in the woods where his last memory was. All in all, good signs. Which worried him. Nothing was ever good in his life…

The sun no longer reigned the sky, so that told Danny that he had been out for a while. A fact accentuated by the other annoying thing currently in his life: hunger. This human half thing was becoming a nuisance! Which made little sense to him. How was it that Danny could go two whole years without transforming and then now all of a sudden be changing left and right? Again, so little sense.

He blinked several times to clear the sleep from his eyes before he even attempted to rise, feeling more rested then he had in a long time, which was also an oddity. He ignored all that for now, choosing to assess his surroundings instead. He seemed to be alone, but that was only at first glance. Phantom was propped against a tree, so he knew that someone had placed him there. By the fact he was still breathing, he knew that whoever was there meant him no harm. That, or he/she was simply waiting in the shadows for the right moment to strike. With his life, Danny didn't put it past the fates to mess with him like that.

"Glad to see you awake, Phantom." Danny stiffened at the voice. Seriously? This guy was turning out to be a stalker!

"What are you doing here, Larten?" He stood quickly, ice eyes scanning the shadows as best as he could. "Why are you following me this—" That was when it hit. The memory from before he was knocked out. Those dangerous eyes widened to the size of dinner plates in horror.
Larten dropped from his perch in the tree he had chosen some feet away. "To welcome you to the night, of course.
