Living A Lie

Chapter 5 – The Start Of A New Relationship.

"Dani…" I said, as I hopped up from my seat on a couch.

"GET AWAY FROM ME!" she yelled, turned around, and ran.

I looked at Valerie who was surprised. I didn't know if I should go after my little sister or stay with the girl I loved. What am I kidding? Family is more important, Valerie would probably hate me if she found out I was also Danny Fenton, the guy she dumped because of Danny Phantom, me.

"I better go." I told her.

"Oh, so now SHE'S more important than me?" Valerie asked.

"She's my sister; I don't want her doing anything foolish like joining Vlad again." I said as I ran from the room.

I jumped into the air and flew up above the buildings. I saw no Dani Phantom, flying around or running, so I looked a little harder. I still couldn't find her but heard the bell ring. I flew back to school; I didn't want to be late for class, again.

Hopefully, I will find Dani after school or, during school.

I walked out of school on my own, and saw Dani about to fly off. I whistled to her and she looked back, and kept walking. I ran to catch up to her, and then jumped so I could fly; I was much faster when I flew. I caught up to her and flew in front of her.

"Dani, I'm sorry." I apologised.

"You KISSED her!" she hissed.

"Dani, you know I like her, I'm sorry I kissed her but I have strong feelings for her that wont go away, Dani, please, don't be angry at me." I begged.

"I'm just… I'm scared," she told me. "Scared that she might hurt you, or be lying to you."

"Don't worry Dani, I can take care of myself, you should worry about yourself, we need to find something that will stop you from melting." I told her.

She hugged me and we started to walk home.

Valerie

I decided to follow Dani Phantom and my sorta boyfriend home. I was curious, as always, about what went on when I wasn't in sight. I ran from bush to bush, following them.

At first, Dani was walking away from Danny, and ignoring him. Then Danny caught up to her and they talked about something. Dani's eyes got watery and she looked as if she were about to cry but, the tears never fell from her eyes. After their talk, she hugged him and they started to walk home together.

They must be very close, I thought. I watched as they walked, for once, instead of flying. Not once did they look behind them which was quite foolish, they should ALWAYS be on the lookout. Oh well, it was easier for me.

They didn't walk home with others, they were always alone. They headed in the direction of the street where the Fenton's house was located. I was surprised when I saw them walk up the steps and be greeted by Danny's older sister, Jazz.

I had seen Jazz a few times but had never met her to her face. I watched as the two walked into the house. I saw a flash of light under the door and quickly crawled up to the window.

I peeked inside and saw that I was looking into the kitchen. In the kitchen, I saw Jazz, Danny Fenton and Danielle. What was she doing there, in her HUMAN form? I asked myself. Did the Fenton's know that she was part ghost? Obviously Jazz and Danny Fenton knew; they were talking to her. But the thing that was stuck in my head was; where was Danny Phantom?

I lost my balance and fell backwards, hitting my head on the footpath. My world went black and I could feel blood oozing out from my head.

Danny

I heard the sound of something hitting the concrete and looked outside the window. Dani and Jazz heard the sound too and we all rushed outside to see that Valerie was lying on the ground, her head bleeding badly.

"It must've been a ghost." said Jazz, as she inspected Valerie.

"Well, what do we do?" Dani asked.

"Dani, I need you to run upstairs and get out the first aid kit while Jazz and I carry her onto the couch." I instructed.

"Alright." She sighed and ran into the house.

I held Valerie's head and Jazz put her arms underneath Valerie's feet. "One," I counted. "Two, three."

We lifted her on the count of three and placed her on the couch. Dani had placed a towel on the couch for Valerie's head and when we had finished putting the girl down, Dani raced down with the first aid kit.

Jazz got out a bandage and some other things. I took Dani out of the room; I didn't want her to have to deal with seeing Jazz bandage up someone's head. A few minutes later, Jazz called us back in.

"Call mum and dad, she doesn't need stitches but I think we should let mum and dad know that we have an unconscious girl on the couch." Jazz instructed.

I looked to Dani and she rolled her eyes and got her mobile out of her pocket. She flipped it open, dialled a few numbers and put it to her ear. She told our parents what happened and hung up the phone. "They will be back in a few minutes."

Jazz went upstairs and instructed us to watch Valerie. We kept an eye on her and practiced attacks at the same time. I taught Dani how to put a protective bubble around her.

We were tired of fighting after a while and began to eat. We forgot to change back into humans as we ate. We heard a moan and looked to Valerie, she was waking up. She opened her eyes and looked to eyes. She moaned and put a hand to her head and felt a bandage.

"What… what happened?" she asked.

"I don't know, why don't YOU tell us? You were unconscious outside the house, what WERE you doing?" asked Dani.

"Dani!" I yelled at her.

She smiled an innocent smile and Valerie sat up a little bit.

"I don't remember anything." She said.

Just then, my parents walked through the front door and into the lounge room to see that Valerie was awake. They looked to Dani and me to see that we were in ghost form. Valerie looked a bit scared, maybe she thought that mum and dad were going to shoot Dani and me.

"Are you okay sweetie?" mum asked Valerie.

"Yeah but… why aren't you shooting them?" Valerie asked mum and dad.

"Because, we captured them and made them… go to school and… we decided not to hurt them… while they were… going to school." Mum explained.

"Why would you send something you wanted to kill for so long to school?" Valerie asked.

I was scared; I was hoping that mum could come up with something good enough to say that would satisfy Valerie. Of course, dad would NEVER think of something that intelligent.

"Torture." Mum said.

"Oh." Sighed Valerie.

I gasped as a blue mist escaped my mouth; it was my ghost sense again. Dani had obviously sensed the ghost too, because she was looking around the room.

"Hey dipstick… WHAT? TWO DIPSTICKS?" Ember yelled.

Everyone turned around to see Ember. Dani and I looked to each other and smiled. We turned back to Ember and sent an energy blast at her. She went crashing into the wall once the blasts hit her.

"We REALLY need to do something about that!" said mum as she pointed to Dani who started to scream.

Now, all that was left of Dani was her head. She was melting faster than usual and it would take A LOT of strength to stop her. Unfortunately, Valerie was right in front of me so, I couldn't do anything about it.

Suddenly, the goo disappeared and Dani's body turned back to normal. Clockwork appeared in front of us all, a hood on his face.

"Danny… I need your help!" he said.

"Clockwork… what is it?" I asked.

He pointed his time staff to an empty space and it turned into a giant circle, it was a screen. On it played something that happened not too long ago, before Dani was created.

"What do you want with me THIS time Plasmius?" I asked, after I had transformed (no one saw me transform)

Vlad put a hand over his face and turned back to Vlad Masters. "The ecto-acne, its back. Please help me."

Sam, Tucker and I gasped as he removed his hand from his face.

"Help you? Yeah right!" said Sam.

"Why would he wanna do that?" asked Tucker.

"I thought you'd never ask." Said Vlad.

He threw a small metal thing onto the ground and smoke came out and swallowed up Tucker and Sam. Vlad grabbed my leg and I turned around to face him.

"Help me find a cure or my fate is theirs." Vlad said right before he collapsed.

I gasped and turned to look at Sam and Tucker. They now had red lumps; ecto acne. Tucker and Sam looked at each other and screamed. I turned around and grabbed Vlad.

"Vlad, wake up. Tell me there's an antidote, tell me you're bluffing, tell me anything, JUST WAKE UP!" I said as I pulled him all over the place.

"BACK OFF GHOST!" yelled my father.

He shot a gun and I got hit into a pile of boxes.

"Nobody slaps around Jack Fenton's college pal." Dad yelled.

Jazz ran out of the Nasty Burger and saw me.

"Danny… must be around here somewhere. I'll go look for him."

Jazz ran back into the Nasty Burger. Mum and dad looked at the pile of boxes where I once rested to notice that I had gone. Mum gasped and they kneeled beside Vlad.

"Vladdie, are you alright?" dad asked as he poked Vlad's nose.

Two seconds later, Jazz and I walk out of the Nasty Burger. "FOUND HIM!"

"Thanks for finding me!" I faked as I looked at Sam and Tucker.

The screen disappeared and no one said a word.

"VLAD'S A GHOST?" everyone asked except for Dani, Clockwork, or I.

"You should've left that part out, like how you left out MY transformation." I suggested before I realised what I said.

"Oh, who cares about Vlad? He's a lonely old man whose hologram Maddie loves hologram Jack; he REALLY should've gotten a cat. He claims he is not a villain; all he wants is love but, come on, look at all the evil things he has done! Anyway, I hate him because, the ecto-acne, it had spread." Said Clockwork as the hood fell of his face to reveal red lumps.

Everyone gasped at Clockwork's now hideous face.

"But… what do you want me to do?" I asked.

"You remember how I let you go back in time and you pushed Vlad out of the way so he didn't turn half ghost? How instead, Maddie married Vlad and Jack turned half ghost? Then you came back to me and you watched the tape again to realise that instead of ecto purifier, Jack put in diet soda? And how you found the cure and cured everyone? I need the cure." Clockwork told me, his eyes never leaving mine.

I turned to my mum and she ran out of the room. To Clockwork, I said. "Mu… Maddie is going to get it now… she shall be back in a minute."

Nobody said anything until my mum was back. She carried a beaker full of pinkish purple liquid and handed it to Clockwork who drank it up. As soon as he swallowed, the lumpy boil things (that I like calling lumps because, I like lumps) disappeared.

"Thank you." Clockwork said.

He was just about to click a button on his staff that would make him go back to the time hall when I stopped him.

"WAIT!" I called out to him. He turned to me and I continued. "Do you know ANYTHING we could do to stop Dani from melting?"

"Yes, Vlad knows." Clockwork said.

He disappeared and I almost ripped out my hair. I remembered that when I had put Plasmius into the Thermos, I put a device my parents made that would bring any ghost to you when you pushed a button.

Everyone looked at me as I tried to find something in my jumpsuit. I couldn't find it anywhere and remembered that I had put it in the pocket of my jeans I wore while I was human.

"IDIOT!" I yelled at myself.

I flew onto the roof, changed back to human, grabbed the button and flew back into the room, invisible.

"Aren't you going to make sure he doesn't escape?" Valerie asked, dripping the water that my mum handed her.

"Oh, don't worry, we can find him, we put a tracking device on him." Mum lied.

I flew back to the ground and turned visible. They watched me as I pushed a button and a bathtub landed in front of me. Vlad was sitting inside, wearing no clothes, playing with a rubber duck, singing. "Hey, rubber ducky! Hey rubber ducky, you're so cool!"

We all looked at Vlad, trying not to laugh. He was meant to be very evil and all that, and here he was, singing to a rubber duck.

"TELL ME HWO TO STOP DANI FROM MELTING, AND TELL ME NOW!" I yelled.

He jumped out of the bathtub, bubbles covering his wrinkly parts. He gasped and jumped back INTO the bath and looked at us.

"I don't… I don't know what you are talking about…" Vlad said.

"Oh, give it up, Clockwork was here and he showed us a pic of you transforming, they all know you are half ghost." I informed him.

He gasped and everyone nodded. He transformed and jumped out of the bath which disappeared. "There is NOTHING that will stop Dani from melting."

"Oh really? Then WHY did Clockie tell us that there WAS something to stop me from melting?" Dani asked.

"Clockie?" everyone asked, turning to her.

"You know what I mean. So, WHAT is the cure?" Dani asked.

Vlad sighed and jumped through the roof and started to fly off.

"Are you going to chase HIM?" asked Valerie.

"No need." I said and pushed the button.

Vlad appeared in front of us and flew into a wall.

"How did I get HERE again?" asked Vlad.

"Give it to us." I demanded.

He handed an empty bottle to us.

"The other one!" I demanded.

Vlad handed one that had 'cure for melting clones 1285' on it. I handed it to Dani who drank it up straight away.

"NOW can I go?" asked Vlad.

"Yes, but if anything happens to Dani, I have a button, and many others next to it. If I ever get bored, I shall close my eyes and push a button. It may bring you here, it may shock you, it may transform you, which ever one my finger hits, you should try it, it's REALLY fun!" I said.

He shuddered and disappeared in a cloud of smoke. "And, if you are under stress, it solves the problem." I added.

"GIVE THAT HERE!" yelled Valerie as she snatched the thing from my hands.

She slammed her fist on it, pushing a million little buttons at once. Mum took it off her and started pressing buttons until dad took it off mum and started pressing buttons. After a few seconds, Dani took it of dad and started pressing buttons. Suddenly, Vlad teleported here, and he didn't look too well.

"QUIT IT!" he yelled, and collapsed.

We smiled to each other, mission accomplished, even though it was just for fun, we needed to get back at Vlad SOMEHOW! We put a label on the back that said 'Get Back At Vlad Remote, Press Buttons For Fun!'

"Should we sell it?" asked mum.

"Nah, I like hurting Vlad." I said.

So, wasn't that a jolly good ep? I don't know why I made Clockwork get ecto-acne, it seemed fun! Same with the Get Back At Vlad Remote, but, I like pushing buttons so, Danny should too! But seriously, close your eyes, and then click the mouse over anything, see what comes up, its fun! I kept blocking Fungus, HAHAHA!
