Disclaimer: I do not own Danny Phantom or any of the character related to the show. I am only a dedicated fan. The only things I own are my oc's. If you want to borrow one just ask.
DarkDragonQueen: The sequel to The Black Phoenix: Life After Death is here. This one is going to be good and we find out exactly what the crystal Sam always has around her neck does. That's all I'm giving you. You figure out the rest. So here's the full summary since I'm not sure it will fit under the link. It won't be as long as it's preceder, so it won't take as long.
Yeah, I know I was gone a week later than I expected but don't blame it on me. My father reset the cable modem and therefore I had to go into the computer to reset my router, which unfortunately it wasn't up because my mother threw away our computer desk and I couldn't figure out how to hook my laptop up directly to the modem. Then when I finally found a way to hook up the computer without a desk the power on the brain wasn't working. It didn't come to me until recently to just turn off my wireless inter and then hook my laptop up to the modem, so that's why this is late. I back in full swing and that's all that counts. Thank you for being patient.
By now you guys are probably like, what the heck is wrong with Sam? Yeah I know. She's different isn't she. I find this story fun to write and I know exactly how it's going to go, but I can't wait to write the next one. You'll like that one for sure.
So without any further interruptions, here is the third chapter of The Black Phoenix: Humanity.

Its Purpose

"So, do you know exactly where Allison lives?" Aly asked as they stood in downtown Atlanta, Georgia in front of Georgia State College.
"Well, she's a rich famous model, how hard could it be to find her." Danny asked.
"Well Raven- Symone is a rich famous actor/singer and she lives here yet not everyone knows where she lives." Aly said in an as a matter of fact tone.
"Point made Aly." Danny sighed. "So where do we start?"
Aly smiled. "At the Fashion show not too far from here where Allison will be modeling for one of the most famous popular fashion designers in the world." she squealed
"You do realize the Allison is a woman with power over fire and a temper like a two years olds' and is out to make your god- sister her apprentice, right?" Danny asked dryly
Aly shrugged. "But still despite all that you have to admit, she had a great bod'."
"I'm afraid of what Sam would do to me if I admit that, so I won't say anything to that." Danny replied. "So where's this fashion show?"
"Not positive, but somewhere I'm sure." Aly pointed out.
"Well, maybe we should look at that poster." Toya pointed at seeing the poster on a brick wall behind them.
It was an advertisement with a bunch of clothes that had a sparkle so bright they could compete with the sun. It show the time date and place and the three set off to find it. They hid behind a trash can and looked as people who couldn't get in stood outside hoping to get a glimpse of the super models when they came out of the building.
"How do we get in?" Toya asked.
"You must forget that you're actually a ghost and that Danny is a halfa." Aly stated dryly.
Danny went ghost for he was quite sure Allison wouldn't recognize him for she hadn't really got a good look at his human form last time they met. He grabbed Aly and Toya even though she could fly, made them invisible and flew through the ceiling. They landed in the hall where the dressing rooms were and Aly being observant as she was spotted Allison's room first.
They phased inside as the door was locked and Aly thought she had died and gone to heaven at the wardrobe in Allison's room. She squealed in delight as she grabbed something off the rack.
"I wonder if Allison would let me have this." Aly pondered as she went into the dressing room to try it on.
"Aly," Danny sighed. "We're not here to find out what stuff in Allison's wardrobe fits you and what stuff doesn't. Besides even if it did she won't let you take it."
"She'll let Toya take it." said from the room. "Toya has that charm, remember?"
Danny looked down at Toya. "No matter what she asks, don't do it, got?"
Toya sighed and nodded. Around thirty minutes and ten outfits tried on by Aly later the door opened and in came in a woman with long dark red hair with the front brushing her shoulders and grayish- blue eyes.
"Danny Phantom." she said. "To what reason do I have this honor?" she said sarcastically.
"No idle talk Allison." Danny sighed and then had to force himself to say the next part. "We need your help."
Allison smiled a smile she mostly used when she was Celosia. "Help?"
"We need to ask you a few questions." Danny explained.
"And what do I get out of this?" Allison asked sitting down and reapplying her make- up.
"You and Vlad really don't see how perfect you would be for each other." Danny muttered to himself. "It's nothing big, we just need to talk."
"Still, I must get something out of it for talking to you and not killing you, all though it doesn't mean I won't attempt to." Allison gave a pointed dark smile.
"If you don't answer our question we'll expose you to the public." Aly declared.
"And then I'd expose Samantha and her boyfriend." Allison shot back.
"Yeah, but we have nothing to loose, but you on the other hand have one of the most glamorous careers there are, a fabulous house, and more money than you can count." Aly shrugged and Allison's eyes hardened and her looked darkened.
Allison got a piece of paper wrote something down and shoved it in Danny's hand.
"This is my address. Meet me there in an hour." Allison just about growled out. "Now get out of here before I change my mind and call security."
Danny grabbed Toya and Aly flying through the ceiling and landing on top of the roof.
"Well, that went well." Ally said taking the paper from Danny and looking at the address. "Hmm, she lives in Stone Mountain, nice."
"Well we've got a whole hour, what do we do in this big city?" Danny asked and Aly grinned.
-.oOOo.-
An hour later they were in front of Allison's eleven bedroom Mansion. I was nothing compared to Vlad's castle, but still immaculate. What had they done for the past hour, well since Aly was the only one who had been to the large international city she took them to an area near downtown call Mid- Town or something of the like, Danny thought. Aly had said it was Sam's favorite part of the city when they had visited where there was a store called The Whole Foods Market, where they sold nothing but the best organic products. Then there was the bookstore, Borders, and the other small shops. He knew that Aly had spent at least five hundred dollars alone there.
Anyway getting back to the task at hand they walked up the path and rung the doorbell and a maid opened the door.
"We're here to see Allison." Danny said and the maid let them in.
"Damn." Aly said looking at the beautifully decorated entrance way.
"Yeah, I know. Vlad's place is bigger, but it's just like a giant dungeon." Danny commented as the maid led them to a large living room with two large couches and an armchair in the back middle surrounding a coffee table.
Allison came down the stairs at that moment in a black business suit and red stripes. "Well, are you going to stand there and look at me or sit down?" she snapped as she herself took a seat in an armchair.
"No need to snap. We don't want to be here as much as you don't want us to be here." Toya glared.
"My, my, my, When did this happen?" Allison asked. "Of course she looks nothing like you and Sam."
Danny glared. "She's a ghost Sam took in."
"A ghost?" Celosia asked looking at the girl who dropped her human disguise and let her cotton candy pink hair flair out
"Okay, enough idle talk, lets just get this over with." Danny said dryly although it seemed that Aly and Toya had no problem staying with their best friend's- or in Toya's case surrogate mother's- arch nemesis.
The three sat down and faced Allison as she ordered the maids to get some kind of sparkling grape juice.
"What do you want?" she asked.
"We need to ask you something." Danny started seeing that Toya and Aly were too interested in the interior decor.
"Well, we don't have all year." Allison sighed.
"Okay, Sam's been acting... rather weird lately." from that point Danny explained Sam's odd behavior and then... "We think it has something to do with the fact that her crystal she wears around her neck was stolen a few weeks ago."
Allison frowned. "You mean the one that was given to her by Alesia the night she died?"
"Yeah, that one." Toya replied sipping her sparkling juice.
"Oh dear," Allison replied and standing up. "Follow me."
The three stood up with Toys taking the sparkling juice with her as she sipped it. They followed Allison two flights of stairs and then they went all the way down the hall to a locked door which Allison unlocked and went inside a room with vast amounts of nice jewelry.
"Don't touch anything." she said just as Aly tried to try on a piece of jewelry behind her.
She went over to a chest in the center of the room and unlocked it. Inside was a red crystal shaped just like Sam's. It had a slight glow to it. Allison looked at it and then turned to the two teens behind her.
"It looked like that right?" she asked.
Danny and Aly nodded while Toya being the curious ghost child she was looked at all the jewelry tempted to touch it.
"Well there's a long story to that. Come on." Allison sighed and led them back downstairs, but this time to the kitchen. She opened a locked cabinet and took out a bag of potato chips, popcorn, cheetos, and candies of the sort. She dropped them on the table and looked at the teens.
"Well, I didn't get all this stuff out for nothing, it's going to be at least an hour or so." Allison said grabbing a bag of chips for herself.
"You're a junk addict?" Aly asked as she cautiously opened a bag of cheetos.
"Yes,"
"But you're a model." Aly said.
"That's the thing. I'm not supposed to have it, which is why I hide the rest of it around the house." Allison admitted. "So let's get on with this tale."
"Hundreds of years ago...I think about three thousand the gods became upset."
"Why?" Aly asked.
"Well in those times there were a lot of unjust deaths, mostly among woman. You know about people being afraid of witches maybe a thousand years ago and the unjust killings of woman then, but it was much worse centuries before that. It's wasn't an uncommon thing for woman to die in large numbers a week because they accused of being witches. So the gods became angry and picked a very few select being to every now and then bring back certain woman to stop the injustices. There was even one in the form of an Egyptian Mau cat which brought back woman to have the characteristics of the feline. The most recent one I met a few months ago. Calls herself Catwoman…"
"Anyway, the last and most powerful of the group was Alesia who when brining back a certain few gave them great power, much of which remained untapped, but there was a flaw in it. You see when she brought them back, they might as well have died and become ghost not because of their powers but they could be considered no longer a human." Celosia sighed.
"Why?" Aly asked as she handed Toya a box of runts.
"Because they lost their humanity. It's the one thing most ghosts don't have. Of course it depends on how old the person was when they died. A child would most likely retain their humanity because they have no dark thoughts. They're innocent. Anyway, the gods saw this and had to think of a solution to the problem and they did. The crystal I have upstairs and the one Sam wears around her neck gives us our humanity until we can gain it back."
"You must wear it constantly and gradually you gain it back. Sam has only had hers for a few months and she hasn't gained hers back. That would explain why she's been acting rather sadistic… Of course not as sadistic as I."
"Did you ever gain your humanity back?" Danny asked noting that Alison didn't wear hers.
"Not all of it. Maybe a tenth of it. How do you think I have the nerve to make other people's live miserable with no remorse?" Allison gave a pointed look. "Besides I never wanted to go back to the weak pathetic person I used to be."
"Well if that's the case, why isn't Sam as sadistic and mean as you are or worse now. I mean her crystal's been gone a few weeks." Aly asked and then had an enlightened look. "Unless, Danny she's feeding off of your humanity."
"What?" Danny asked
"I mean look at it this way. You're like her guilty conscience. She stopped doing a lot of the things she used to do before we moved to Amity because of you." Aly said logically.
Danny sighed. "Wait a minute, if your crystal does the same thing why can't she just borrow yours until we get hers back?"
"Each crystal is custom made for the user." Allison replied. "It takes hundreds of years for just one crystal to be made. Alesia saw our fate centuries before we were born. She prepared them especially for us. It's the reason she has only ever awakened a handful of people."
"Well it's time to go." Danny said. "Our leave is long overdue."
Toya eyed all the candy and chips and then looked up at Allison using her charm.
"You can have it." Allison said grabbing a big garbage bag and tossing all the chips, candy and things from other cabinets in the bag before handing it to Toya.
Danny and Toya showed themselves out the house but Aly stayed behind.
"Celosia, how did you die?" she asked.
"When I was twenty my ex- boyfriend beat me to death." Allison replied coldly.
"No wonder you never got married." Aly said with a sympathetic smile.
"I don't need you pity, now leave so I can go make someone's life miserable." Allison rolled her eyes annoyed.
Aly head out, but then stopped. "Your daughter's beautiful by the way." she said pointing to a picture on the wall and then running out the room.
Allison sighed as she sat down. "Well there's my good deed for the century." she said. "Now let me make up for it and make someone miserable."
-.oOOo.-
That was fun. I hope you liked it. Here's your sneak peak:
"Hey Danny." she greeted. "I didn't know you were here."
Danny's eyes narrowed and he glared at Sam cutting to the point. "What are you hiding?"
"Nothing Danny." Sam sighed turning on her bed and looking at the black comforters.
"What did you do? I know you did something and are trying to hide it, You know I'm going to find it, so you might as well show me." Danny said glaring at the closet. "I'll search your room too."
"You wouldn't." Sam glared back.
"Want to bet?" Danny glared and then changed into his ghost form and phased into Sam's closet.
"Danny, get out of there." Sam ran to her closet door.
"If you've got nothing to hide what's the big deal?" Danny called from the closet as Sam swung it open to find Danny holding a sack she had hidden in her closet. "Hm, nice set of earrings here and they'd look nice on you too... if you paid for them."
Next chapter's the second to last. I told you it wouldn't be very long. The reason is because I'm looking forward to the next installment. It's going to be fun. R&R.
