Ok it took long enough for inspiration to come back to me so I could write chapter three but it has come so don't worry about an unfinished story.
Side note: This is kind of just a filler, nothing truly important except a new character intro. The next chapter will tell how Danny got his red eyes.
Chapter three:
Danny sat in his room, carefully reading his Greek mythology book. No, it wasn't a homework assignment. Danny just so happened to have a thing for the ancient deities. He'd actually spoken with a few of them. He was rather fond of the goddess Athena and her strategic skill.
Danny this night, though, was desperately trying to focus his mind on something other than his blood lust. For the millionth time, it seemed, he cursed the demon whose eye he possessed into damnation in Tartarus, where Kronos the Titan slept... or at least what was left of him.
In his left eye he saw images that would give many a nervous breakdown or nightmares or both. He could see himself going downstairs and ripping through his family with his sword. Using its extremely sharp edge to slit their throats then cutting open their bellies to feast on their innards. When he was full he would then bathe in their blood.
He pressed the palm of his left hand over his eyes and actually began begging out loud for the images to stop. A soft tapping at his window alerted him that either Sam was there or another ghost was attacking and decided to start with him.
"C'mon in, Sammy," he told the halfa. She became intangible and flew in before turning solid again and landing softly on his bed. She looked extremely worried.
"What were you saying a minute ago?"
"Nothing much," Danny lied. "Just a headache I was trying to force away." Danny noted silently that the lust for blood seemed to be calmed in Sam's presence. Not completely gone, but definitely toned down.
Sam gave him a skeptical look, but decided not to press the matter. "We have a ghost on the loose again," she said sounding bored.
"And you haven't caught him yet, Sammy? You're slipping," he teased poking her arm gently.
"One, it's a She-ghost, and two, the girl is fast and screaming your name." Sam's voice held undisguised jealousy. She didn't see a point in hiding it from Danny since the whole exchanging of eyes.
Danny's right eyebrow arched upwards. "Any idea why she would be calling for me? Maybe it's another Danny," he suggested, hoping to quell the negative emotion Sam was feeling.
"I thought that at first too... until she tackled me and said, 'Stay away from Fenton, freak!' and went off looking for you again."
"Hmm... well I don't remember having any ties to anyone in the Ghost Zone. Maybe it's just Plasmius. Trying to work the psychological warfare thing again," Danny said reasonably, but Sam looked less than convinced.
"I dunno. Wouldn't he have sent her here to be hanging off you, so when my ghost sense activated I'd see you two together?" Sam's scenario seemed more accurate for Plasmius. Danny put a hand on his chin and the other over her hand that rested on her knee to help calm her down.
Suddenly an overly cheerful girlish squeal filled the air and the next thing poor Danny knew he was being glomped by what looked like a rabid fangirl by nature. Her auburn hair was just past her shoulders and slighty curly at the ends, she wore a white T-shirt with the words 'Danny is mine!' on the front and a poorly drawn picture of a smiling Danny on the back, her skirt stopped just above the knees was a light blue and had black lettering over the right thigh say 'Danny's girl', her shoes were also white and stopped at the ankle. The only things to give her away as a ghost rather than just another fangirl was the bluish tone of her skin and glowing green eyes.
"Oh, Danny," she cried, keeping him in a bone crushing hug, "I thought I'd never see you again after the accident. I'm so glad you could keep your promise, thanks to that nice ghost man!"
Danny didn't have to look at Sam to know her hands were glowing with purple ecto-energy, silver crackling threateningly around it like electricity. The jealousy coming off of her was almost palpable. One part of Sam that seemed more ghostly than human was her possessiveness. Danny was hers, and she'd fight to prove it.
Danny decided he had better try to pry the ghost girl from him before Sam released that ecto blast and accidentally scorched him as well.
"Um... do I know you?" he asked cautiously. The girl immediately sat up, straddling his waist, a bright smile on her face that suggested she knew what to do with this position.
"Of course you do, Danny. It's me, Sicilia," her cheery voice told that she expected him to remember instantly. Danny looked at Sam for help, but the halfa was glaring A-bombs at the ghost. He sighed mentally and began going back through all the names he could remember trying to think of any girl he knew named Sicilia.
And then he remembered it...
( Flashback )
Four year old Daniel Fenton sat in the sand box in South Amity Park. He was busy building sloppy sand castles and planting flags when he heard a little girl crying somewhere nearby. He stood up and looked around. Off to one side of the monkey bars were a bunch of seven year olds picking on a girl about his age that had auburn hair.
Never being one to tolerate bullies he rushed off to help the little girl.
"Hey you big bullies!" he yelled at them. "Go pick on someone youw own size!" He stepped in front of the little girl and held up his pudgy little fists threateningly. He recognized one of them as a boy his age, Dash Baxter.
The older boys laughed at Danny and looked at Dash. "Here you go, buddy. Beat up this kid and you get to be part of the A-list." Dash just smirked, cracking his pudgy little knuckles as he advanced on Danny.
Two minutes later Danny stood over a defeated Dash who was crying about where Danny hit him on the side of the face. The other kids, not really wanting to pick on someone who would fight back, decided they'd just go pick on someone else stating that the little girl had gotten boring.
He turned to the little girl and smiled sweetly at her. "Awe you ok?" She nodded slowly, a little afraid that this new boy would pick on her too.
He just held out his hand to her in greeting and said," My name's Danny. What's youws?"
"S-Sicilia", she stuttered slightly.
"You don't have to be afwaid. Those boys awe gone," Danny assured her.
"But what if they come back?"
Danny frowned looking towards the sky in thought like he normally did. Then he said the first thing to come to his four year old mind," Then I'll mawwy you so I can pwotect you." His smile was as wide as ever. The girl just jumped up and hugged him, thanking him.
Unfortunately for the girl she had to leave for Denver, Colorado that day and never got to see her prince in shining armor again.
(End Flashback)
"Holy Hades! You're that Sicilia?" Danny asked incredulously. Sam's look turned from Sabrina to Danny in question.
"Yep," she smiled at Danny and practically dived at his lips capturing him in a kiss he was a little too stunned to break right away. When he did pull back Sam was gone but the floor was scorched in the place she stood.
"Um... Sicilia," Danny thought over his words carefully, "This can't work out anymore. You're a ghost, I'm a mortal. Even if I wanted to we couldn't be married." His reason seemed infallible.
"What about that other girl? She's a ghost right?" she asked a slight pout in her voice.
"Yeah, well, no. She's half ghost. She has a human form. And on top of that I'm betrothed to her by ghostly law," he said pointing to his silver eye. Before she could speak in protest, as he was sure she could find one he decided to ask some questions. "What ghost man helped you?"
"Oh, this strange guy with black hair and red eyes like yours, which I find extremely sexy by the way. He said he was from the future and that he knew we were destined to be," the girl had a dreamy look on her eyes. "He even gave me a mortal body, see." She turned into a human girl, pale creamy skin and blue eyes. "See? We can be together. We just have to get your eye back from that other girl and then we can live happily ever after!"
At the moment Danny wished he had Sam's ability of intangibility so he could sink through the bed and get away from this crazy girl.
"Um it's not that simple," Danny said. One, he didn't want to marry this crazy girl and leave Sam. Two, he wasn't sure that Death would let that slide even if he wanted too.
"Oh, I see," Sicilia said, suddenly sounding sad. "You love that other girl, right?" Danny blushed a little, but nodded a positive. He figured maybe after that was out in the open the other girl would go back to the Ghost Zone. Wrong!
"Mr. G said I'd have to work for our happy ending," she stated, sounding more determined than Danny hoped she really was. "I'll just have to break the spell that witch put on you and then it'll be all roses and posies!" Her temperament was giddy again and she placed a quick kiss on Danny's lips again before disappearing, leaving only a sentence behind to haunt him. "Save your self for me, Danny-poo."
A/N: And that my friends is the end of the third chapter. Quick note: In the flash back when Danny and Sicilia were talking I purposely made all the R's W's instead because I thought it was adorable... yeah anyway hope you all liked it. Have a nice day.
