Ghost Part Seven
My heart seemed to freeze as I turned around, my eyes wide as saucers. In a split second, fantasy and reality clashed together, heated in a battle of hopes and facts. I just gawked and shook my head, giving reality the advantage in this war that would result with the truth.
"No..." I said slowly, my tongue dreading the simple word. I didn't like the truth but I must live by it. He's not really there and I know that... He cocked his head and looked at me strangely, his bright green eyes glistening with confusion.
"Sam..." I turned away, my heart depressed and my mind tired. I just couldn't take it.
"No, Danny..." I finally spoke, my tears now falling like raindrops in a harsh storm down my cheek "No, you're not here... Stop doing this"
"But, Sam" My body shook with a sob and all my emotions began to spill out of me, leak out of my eyes and greet the dark night with open arms.
"You aren't Danny! Danny is gone and never coming back! Don't you see that? Why can't you just let me be?" my expression was now hurt and aggravated looking, my mind boiling at the fact that this all wouldn't quit torturing me.
"Sa-"
"Don't say my name! Go, leave! You aren't real" I bit my trembling lower lip and closed my eyes, a hushing breeze of sorrow ushering the anger out of my bloodstream. "Danny's gone... you're just my imagination – nothing more than an illusion. Just go, please... I don't want to suffer anymore" a loud sob escaped my lips and I closed my eyes "Just go please." I whispered slowly, opening my eyes to find him giving me a saddened look.
"Sam, listen to me" I shook my head again and covered my ears, as if I were a little child refusing to listen. "Sam..." I switched my gaze back to the floor and kept it there, my stubborn mind not falling for its own devilish tricks.
I then felt a hand land on my shoulder, a very cold one. I gasped and immediately swung my head to look at where the hand came from. He had his hand on my shoulder, and strangely, I felt it. Figments of your imagination can't touch you, at least you don't feel anything when they do...
How it felt was a weird sensation. It was so shockingly cold that it made my skin go numb and then warmth was suddenly present, as if a human hand had replaced his ghostly one. I didn't move, I only stared in confusion and temporary awe.
My brain was now throwing a fit, tossing reasonable facts at me. It refused to believe all this but I was slowly reconsidering the decision. I took a shaky hand and placed it on his gloved fingers.
Cold – it was incredibly cold... numb to the slightest touch. But like previously the cold melted away and became warm. I was shaking like a leaf in a raging tornado, my soul frozen in fear as it was tossed around by rude gusts of nonsense.
I then moved my hand to his face and gasped loudly as I felt the 'flesh' on his features. It was horribly cold and then suddenly warm. I stepped back an he removed his hand from my shoulder. I was too startled and confused about all this to react.
My lips finally moved as I spoke "D-Danny?" I questioned, my mind incredibly twisted and caught in a web of wonder. He nodded and I stepped back again, not sure how to take anything I was witnessing. But then a wave of hope splashed upon me. Was he really back?
"B-but how is that p-possible?" I said choppily, my mind coming back strong with hammering facts. But facts seemed to have no power in the moment for this all made zero sense.
"Thats a long story... But, Sam – listen" I did listen, I listened like I'd never heard anybody speak in my life. I was so fascinated by all this but also scared. Not to mention confused. "Sam... I'm sorry for leaving you - everyone..." he looked away and ran a hand through his snow white hair.
"I saw you like this and I..I..I couldn't handle it. Look what I've done to you. I thought coming back was good but-" he looked at me and I stared back, my eyes glistening with remaining fears and fresh faith. "I see that its done nothing but ruin your life..."
Is he really there? I couldn't decide... Soon, I did something I had wanted to do many times in the past 13 years. I stepped forward in two quick steps and gave him the tightest hug I could muster, the violent cold stinging my flesh and then apologizing as it faded into nothing but heat.
"How---why---D-" I couldn't speak so I hugged him tighter., hoping to squeeze the answers I needed out of him.
"Sam... I'm sorry" I shook my head and let go, my mind stumped as ever. I looked into his eyes and my tears came to a halt, serious questions humming in an annoyed fashion in my mind as they waited to be asked. They wanted answers so I would give them one.
"How is this all possible? The Fenton Portal is gone and-"
"We weren't the only ones that had a portal, Sam..." I gazed at him, fantasy giving reality a good whack in the nose as the concept sunk in. 'Beat that!' I could almost hear it snicker. I was at a loss for words... I looked at the grass then back at him, my features agreeing with what he said.
"If it wasn't your parents portal, who's was it?" he looked at me and responded quickly, "Thats not important right now-" I cut him off before he continued on and put my hands on my hips.
"Well it is to me! Do you know how confused I am right now? Here I am, my dead best friend in front of me – saying he's-"
"Sam, you've seen and dealt with ghosts before. This all shouldn't be too shocking" I shut my mouth after that. He started talking again. "I-" he looked down and then suddenly winced as if he was shot by something "I'm running out of energy, Sam... I need to go." My eyes went wide and I retorted with a loud "What!"
He sighed and put his hand on my shoulder and I jerked it off, literally lost by his last comment.
"Energy," I started, "what do you mean by that?"
"Ghosts have limited energy when they aren't in the Ghost Zone... When you are a ghost longer you get more energy and-"
"But you've been a ghost for almost 14 years! Certainty you have a lot"
"Yes, more than most... I have been here for two weeks now so I'm really weak." I then shut my mouth, noticing everything I said was being scolded by reason.
"Danny..."
"Sam, I have to go. I'll be back, don't worry. I promise" I didn't get to respond for he flew off quickly into the night sky, his spectra tail following his almost transparent image. My eyes watered again and I looked down at the grass. I switched my gaze to the bright moon, glowing dimly in the midnight black.
"Goodbye, Danny..."
