Drabble #16: The Monument
In the midst of destruction, the monument still stands.
It is in remembrance of Sam Manson, Tucker Foley, Maddie Fenton, Jack Fenton, Jazz Fenton and Mr. Lancer. Their lives ended in an explosion of radioactive sauce. The bodies were never found, so a monument was built in the center of town.
"Gone but not forgotten" is carved in the memorial.
Once it was covered with flowers, letters, teddy bears, signs and various other objects from mourners. Someone had even placed a PDA there, hidden amongst the flowers so it wouldn't be stolen by cruel thieves. Now, it stood tall and proud, gleaming when the sun was out.
When Dan Phantom returned to Amity Park, he used his Ghostly Wail to destroy the city. Only Valerie Grey even tried to put up a resistance. She had hidden in the rubble, waiting for the right time and moment to strike.
Dark Danny hated that monument. He disdainfully called it "that stupid statue." He wanted to make sure that was one of the first things torn into pieces.
But even though the rest of the city is destroyed, the monument still stands.
Dark Danny was extremely frustrated when he saw something that wasn't completely knocked down to the ground. He set fire to the ruins, hoping to come back with the debris turned into charcoal ash. He wanted no survivors when he came back.
Amity Park is burnt to a crisp. Nobody is left.
The monument still stands.
Dan Phantom came back to find the statue he hated still as tall and proud as ever. Moreover, the grey stone was glowing. He was furious. Dark Danny started throwing ecto-blasts at the monument in anger. He succeeded in knocking it over and cracking it. It was still intact, but he figured at least one couldn't see it. He left Amity Park to conquer the Ghost Zone.
The night after he left, several pale ghosts flew into the rubble and pushed the monument up. They restored it to its former glory, fixing the cracks and polishing it until it gleamed.
If anyone visited the site where Amity Park once was, they would see the ruins of a town.
They would also see the glowing monument that is still standing after all of these years.

A/N: Yes, another TUE drabble. I wanted to write one about the monument that we see in the AU Amity Park. Anyways, thank you That Bloody Demon and shadowspinner1 for reviewing the last drabble! Please review! Constructive criticism is wanted (otherwise, how else can I improve?), but no flames please.
