Chapter 5-
"I've got a question!" A voice raises from the crowd.
Saved...Danny thought.
"Ask." Walker said, annoyed. He had hoped there would be none to get Danny Phantom exterminated, but nonetheless, he had wanted to toy around with the boy, make him squirm under pressure and his last minutes of life be tortured and painful and humiliating in front of his peers.
It was Mr. Lancer.
Nobody had noticed he had gotten up, had even waken up to be exact, but he stood tall, and a little wobbling, his thin hair bursting in different directions from the shock, but nobody noticed. Their eyes were all fixed on Danny.
"Daniel..." he said. Danny couldn't help but look down.
Don't shock yourself again, Lancer, please...he thought.
"...I guess we should...I mean...how?"
Sam cut him off short, not knowing that he was going to apologize to Danny that very second.
"We told you how. It's not our fault you freaked out and almost committed suicide!" she said, arms flailing. At that moment she fell to the ground and Tucker stood over her watching.
"This is all just a dream..." she kept muttering.
Danny could picture her in a straight jacket then and there and was expecting police to come drag her away.
"This is all my fault..." she said.
"No, Sam," Danny said weakly. He was on his knees now, barely crouching over himself, clutching his stomach from the changes he had experienced. "Ah...my head."
"Headaches, Danny?" Walker laughed. "A minor side effect."
Danny breathed hard.
"Any body else have questions or should I get this show on the road?" Walker said, amused.
Jazz Fenton then stepped forward.
"Danny!" she cried.
She had been pushing her way through the crowd the whole time, but had been pushed back by scrambling screaming students.
"Ohmygosh! Are you okay? Danny!" she panicked.
"I'm...I don't know, Jazz," Danny said.
Jazz stood up and faced Walker. "Stop it you big jerk! Don't you have other stuff to be doing then picking on my little brother you friggin freak?"
Walker laughed, ignoring Jazz and with a ray, shot her against the back wall.
Jazz tried to pick herself up, but fell back down.
"Jazz! It's ok, it's fine. Stay there," Danny said.
Jazz wasted no time obeying and sat back down, a silent prayer.
Walker sighed, bored. "Anyone else?"
Danny looked around.
Please...
Noone moved forward in fear of being shot at.
"Fine then, let the execution begin..." Walker said slowly.
"Wait!" panted Paulina, moving forward instantly. "Danny!"
Walker put his hands on his hips. "Ask."
"Um..." Paulina began. "I..."
"Danny..." she said stuttering.
"Next," Walker said.
"You didn't even let me finish!" Paulina shouted.
"Then ASK!" Walker screamed, annoyed.
"I AM!" Paulina screamed back.
She turned to Danny again. "Um...I ...wanted to ask you..."
"Time's up." Walker said, and with a ray from his finger, lifted Danny by the shirt collar, pulling him towards him.
"Time to fight."
Danny's POV:
Oh shit.
BAM! I was hit across the face and sent flying into the stage piled by music stands and trumpets.
"Fight," Walker repeated.
"Please, leave them alone..." I said weakly.
"Hah...right," Walker said, throwing me into a pile of students.
I screamed as he picked me up again and pinned me against a wall.
"Do you know what you've DONE to the Ghost Zone, Danny Phantom?"
"I..."
Bam! Another slam against the wall.
"You've RUINED the entire Ghost Zone! Do you know that?" Walker said, his eyes flashing red.
"I didn't mean to...OW!"
Bam!
"All the ghosts are now NEVER going to get out! NEVER! They will never rule, thanks to YOU, Danny Phantom. If it weren't for that ghost portal your idiot father had built, then the entire world would me mine right now!" Walker said.
Bang!
"Stop..." I muttered.
Bang! Bam! Pow!
"You...piece of crap ruined EVERYTHING. ALL my plans," Walker murmured.
"Please..." I whimpered.
I didn't mean to sound so weak, in front of everyone staring.
Staring.
Staring.
No one had stared so much at me before.
Eyes...
Eyes...
I looked around, confused, pinned against the wall and Walker's warm breathing on my face. He was practically grasping for air, to calm down, keep everything in place. In order.
"Walker, I..." I choked.
His arms came around my throat, choking me.
"I- can't - breathe -" I said.
"Good."
I put my hands around his to try and pull them off, but they were too strong.
Just then, a hand came around and hit Walker on the back.
"Sam!" I yelled.
Sam was yelling curse words at Walker's back, hitting it hard with her fists. "Let him go you bastard! Leave him ALONE!"
Walker turned around, his eyes still red.
"Aw...how cute. A girlfriend, eh Daniel?" Walker said.
I noticed how Sam didn't argue to this, like it had satisfied her.
"Sam, get away," I said.
"No, Danny, and I'm so sorry," Sam said, still pounding on Walker's back.
I tried to breathe through Walker's grasp, one hand still on my throat.
"For what?" I grasped.
"For, never saying it, Danny. I never said it, ever," Sam said.
The pit of my stomach dropped. "Said what?"
"I...I like you Danny," Sam said stopping.
"I..." I stammered.
"Touching, Danny. Talk to you later." Walker said. And for some reason, I passed out.
"Danny!"
