Chapter Five.
"Hi, I'm reporter Harriet Chin and you are here to view an interview with Jack Fenton, Maddie Fenton and Danny Phantom. Now, may I ask what was this event that happened this afternoon Maddie?" asked Harriet.
"Well, jack and I were in the lab, looking over our inventions when suddenly the ghost portal opened and a ghost floated out. He sent ropes over to me that tied me to one of the benches. He then shot an arrow thing through Jack. We screamed and then Jazz, Sam and Danny came running down.
The ghost seemed to know my son because my son told him to get off him and called him by his name, Skulker. Skulker said that he wasn't going to let go of Danny until he is dead. Then Danny reached out behind him, tossed the ghost towards the wall and ran out to get help.
Danny Phantom then came and sent skulker back into the ghost zone. He untied me and I went over to my husband's side. He told us to give Jack a little bit of space and then somehow brought him back to life. He then seemed to get light-headed and wobbled into the ghost zone, holding his head. He disappeared into a door or something. Then a few minutes later we heard a noise like someone falling onto the ground and saw our son with a bit of blood oozing out of him, lying in the ghost zone.
Soon Danny woke up and the ghosts took him to a box store and then Danny Phantom fought skulker and told us where our son was. That's about all." Maddie explained.
"So, do you remember anything Jack?" asked Harriet.
"Yes, all I remember is seeing my wife get tied around a bench, being brought back to life and trying to hunt down a ghost." Jack admitted.
"Okay then, we have heard the ghost hunter's story, now for the ghost's story. Danny Phantom, what do you remember?" asked Harriet.
"Well, I remember most of it I guess. I was flying around town, bored and looking for a ghost attack somewhere when my ghost sense went off in the direction of this house. So I thought it was just another ghost freed from the ghost zone and flew into the basement. I saw skulker, Maddie tied up to a bench and Jack lying on the floor in a pool of blood and instantly suspected it was Plasmius' orders.
I attacked skulker and sent him back into the ghost zone. I felt jacks pulse and heartbeat and realised that he was dead. I freed Maddie and started to think. Over the last week I had been testing a new power that I had acquired, to heal things. I tried it out on Jack and it worked. It wiped out a lot of my energy and headed to my lair to lie down.
Later I woke up in a box store with Danny Fenton and flew outside to see skulker, wanting to fight me. We agreed that if I won he would Danny go and if he won, Plasmius got Danny and I to keep. I won of course and I told Maddie and Jack where their son was and went to patrol the town. That's about it…" Danny told them.
"So, who is this ghost named Plasmius?" asked Harriet.
"I'm not sure if I should be saying, but I don't care at the moment if he kills my soul. He is an evil ghost who wants Maddie to live with him and Jack killed. He also wants Jasmine Fenton and Danny Fenton to live with him. He is more powerful than me but I end up finding a way to beat him. I have had about a years experience and he has had about 21 years of experience." Danny explained.
"You sound very sad and like something is upsetting you. Like, you are giving up on life, or whatever it is that ghosts have. What's wrong?" Harriet asked.
"Oh, I am just sick and tired of ghosts always coming when I don't want them to come. I have other things to do and haven't been getting much sleep… I need sleep to get my energy back, some ghosts don't but I am not a normal ghost. It is just so tiring and when I have no sleep I have hardly any energy and get hurt. When I heal myself it takes more energy out of me and it just annoys me. Sometimes I feel depressed about life, hoping that someone would come and kill me." Danny explained.
"Well, I'm Harriet Chin reporting for the Ghost Network Channel, goodnight." Harriet said and the cameraman turned the camera off.
"Well, I'm going now, I need sleep. Goodnight." Danny said and flew downstairs.
He turned invisible and floated upstairs and changed back into Danny Fenton. He looked at himself in the mirror and no longer looked like he had been crying. He grabbed a comic book and started to flip through it. His father. His mother and Harriet burst through the door.
"Danny, come downstairs and watch our interview, it is very good!" Jack pleaded.
"Alright then." Danny sighed and followed them downstairs.
