{Hey guy SL1F73R here with an improved version of Altered Phantom. Whispers: *I honestly have no other name for it.* For my loyal readers from Wattpad this story will be taking place during the gangs senior years. This story however will have a slow update(mostly on Saturday) for one reason; a prsistent writer's block, my own laziness and a short attention span.}

Arc I: Beginnings, Ch 1: Astronaut, Goth and Geek

Date/ Time/ Location: N/A

My name is Daniel James Ryder but I prefer Danny and Niel to my business partners(I'll tell you about that in a bit). I'm eigthteen years old and my hobbies include space, video games, martial arts, singing, playing the guitar, winter sports and dragons. I normally wear a pair of steel toe shoes, a pair of slightly baggy pants and a long sleeve shirt with a vertical crescent moon.

I live with my Uncle, Aunt and Cousin: Jack, Maddie and Jazz Fenton. I know the truth, Jack and Maddie aren't my parents, they still believe that I think that I'm their biological son. The thing I learned truth in the winter of my Kindergarten year, at the age of six, when my twin brother Davy(David) Jackson Ryder died.

My brother and I had been living with the Fentons since my Dad loss custody of us after the death of our mother Miranda Ryder. He started to drink heavily.

In any case Jazz and I were home sick with the common cold while Davy was at school. Because Jack and Maddie were having their annual Christmas Argument so Jazz petition our neighbors to go and get my twin. Unfortunately because he didn't have an armor vehicle like my relatives, when he drove one of the many bridges he hit a patch of black ice and plowed through the railings and into the creek. Years later I learned that our neighbor died on impact while Davy suffered when he froze to death.

At the funeral Jack and Maddie didn't even show up, Jazz did and that's when my true father, Daniel Authur Ryder.

He had took Jazz and I to lunch and began to explain. Apparently he was fighting to receive custody of the both of us unfortunately because of his lifestyle we couldn't live with him. Jazz and I understood.

In first grade I became extremely introverted to the point of almost becoming a mute. I did talk but only to Dad and Jazz. It was during second grade that idiot Dash pushed a small girl into me. Within that moment something closer and the next thing I knew I was playing with my new friend Sam(Samantha) Ava Manson.

Sam help me to come out of my shell, I always had a small smile and my voice was horse from a lack of use.

In third grade I helped a young African American boy get his hat back while Sam went to get a teacher. His name was Tucker Foley and he became the third member of our trio.

We had our own dreams; I always wanted and still want to become an astronaut, Davy wanted to become an adventure however if both of our dreams fell through the tracks we would come together and become rock stars. We would both be called Ryder, would be both the lead singers and lead guitar and we both be backup singers and backup guitar. It would just be a giant guessing game.

I tell my friends almost everything, it's mainly because I'm still uncomfortable with tell them about my twin. I still play the guitar and do snowboarding and freestyle ice skating. Sam and Tucker know somewhat about the ice skating but they believe I go onto the mountains to do some star gazing(which I do) however on the way down I do snowboard.

As for my business I'm working to become the soul heir of the Ryder Corporation. The Corporation develops security software.

Little did I know my life would take a turn for the worst.

Goth

My name is Sam Ava Manson, I'm an ultra recyclable vegetarian, a goth with a nak for magic. I wear a pair of black steel toes boots, black leggings, a plaid knee length skirt, a black crop top that shows off her mid-rif, a black choker with a rose pendant.

Thanks to my parentage I can use magic… no that isn't correct… I inherited my magic ability from my parents. My father is a mage named Mercy(Mercer) Manson, he left me with his little brother(my uncle) because he has plenty of enemies. While my mother is simply named Tyreen and she is a succubus. They had both left me with a book with their details.

First off mages have a set of laws in place since near the middle ages. There are three basic laws; Reservation to live comfortable and not live excessively(don't even try to become famous), Secrecy in the event someone with on magic or a Randole the mage is allowed to alter that person's memories up to three other times before lethal action can be taken and Preservation to project our family and insure their safety.

Second succubi are either a complete slut or a devoted wife. In the past succubi would visit almost twenty men a night. But now and days we latch onto someone's soul often those emotionally vulnerable or damaged. I unknowingly latched onto Danny's souls. Since then I've kept other girls away from what's mine.

I've dreamed of becoming a Veterinarian.

Geek

My name is Tucker Foley, I'm a carnivorous tecno-geek with a nak for coding. I normally wear a pair of green sneakers, a standard pair brown cargo pants, a plain yellow shirt and a red beret.

I'm a meat-connoisseur, my all meat diet has strengthen my senses. I have been able to tracked down my best friend, Danny, in the local mall from three floors away. I can distinguish if it's well done to medium rare.

I'm also an extreme technology enthusiast, my PDA is several years old but I've upgraded it so much it's faster than the newest smartphones. My entire room is filled with technology. With my technology I've mapped out my family tree, I can trace my lineage to ancient Egypt.

I eventually grew curious on why Danny doesn't call the Fentons 'Mom and Dad' so I did a bit of digging. I found out that he isn't a Fenton but a Ryder. A fucking Ryder. They literally do coding from simple apps to security for the government.

I also know the truth about my gothic sister, she's obsessed with Danny and quite honestly I fear for the pour girl who tries to date him.
