WELCOME! I just want to start off by saying thank you for the 3 reviews, I'm grateful even one person was kind enough to leave one, but 3? Heck ya! To celebrate, I'm making a contest. PM me a story in 50 words or less, the best one will get the honor of deciding one minor pairing for the story (Dash, Paulina, Technus, etc.) I'm one of the writers who likes to answer the reviews so hear goes

TFSyndicate: I'm glad you liked it! And to clear up any lingering doubts, this is about the middle of season 3, Dani exists and is known by Danny but D-stabilized has yet to happen, as well as phantom planet, this story is about how one decision can change everything.

Invader Johnny: ya I wanted to get them accepting Danny on the first chapter, I believe a parent's love can overcome any obsession.

NOW ON TO THE STORY

Chapter 2: Revelations

*Danny's pov*

I see we are on our way to Vlad's house. In about 20 minutes, his life is going to change, for better or worse… and honestly, I don't know what I want. I mean I hate the guy. I downright don't like him. He is the cause of most of my suffering. But… what kind of hero am I changing someone's life like this? Am I don't the right thing? I don't know anymore.

"Hey Danny, you coming?" my dad shouts. Huh? I look out the window and we are here. I guess I had a lot more on my mind then I thought. I get out of the car and suppress a shiver. I have so many bad memories of this place… speaking of bad memories in here, I wonder how Dani is doing. I should go check on her soon. She might be half ghost, but technically she isn't even a year old. "Dear, what are you thinking? We don't have to do this if you don't want to." I snap my head up and hastily add "no mom thank you but this needs to happen." I rush to the door and knock… and wait.

"PUFF PASTRIES, WHO IS AT MY DOOR AT 7 IN THE- oh! What a surprise! Maddie! Danny! …jack. Please come in." we head into his main study and sit down. I don't know what to say, and all I manage to get out is "I told them. About me. About everything I've done." I'm met by a stone-cold face, and flinch as he looks down on me. "whatever do you mean, what have you done my dear boy? Surely a young man like you hasn't gotten into any trouble?" I sigh. I knew he would react like this. I don't want to force him, but I might have to at this point. "Vlad, they know. And you're going to tell them your secret to, otherwise I will. They deserve to know everything. I mean it." He smiles, and I freeze. "show me then. Show them what you are." That gives me room to pause. Even though they know, I don't like showing who I really am to them if I can avoid it. "fine." Is all I can manage, and I pull at the cold spot in my chest.

The rings form, and I soon become my ghost half, Danny Phantom. I look up and see Vlad freeze in utter terror. "no… you actually did it. But WHY?!" "because he is our son, and he trusts us." I hear my dad say solemnly. I nod at Vlad. "your turn." I see in his eyes he has no other choice. He closes them and repeats the process I just did. Soon, Vlad masters is replaced by Vlad Plasmius. "YOU'RE THE WISCONSIN GHOST?!" my parents scream. Horror turns to understanding, and that turns into anger. Anger melds into fury, and my parents take out their guns. "Danny stand back." My dad says grimly. "WHAT?! Mom, dad, you can't do this!" my mom looks in my direction, but all I see is anger… with a hint of betrayal.

She looks back at Vlad. "You possessed Jack, you tried to get him thrown in jail, you tried to HURT MY SON, and you expect anything to be ok?" I am surprised and horrified when Vlad turns back to human. "No. I do not. In fact, I don't expect to survive this very hour. Do what you wish, I insist." My parents look surprised, but don't relent. I do the only thing I can think of. I hear a blast being shot, and I dive. Vlad's eyes are closed, seemingly accepting his fate. One that I can't allow. I raise a shield around us and the blast is knocked away. "STOP!" my parents instantly pale and lower their weapons, and I am grateful for it. Their weapons are getting stronger and stronger… "Mom, Dad, look at yourselves! You raised me to give anyone a chance, how could you shoot at a living person!?" they lower their heads in shame, but they still have a bit of anger in them. I can feel it. I look at Vlad and narrow my eyes. "just because I don't want them hurting you, doesn't mean you're not explaining yourself." He looks up gratefully, an emotion I don't expect coming from him. "everybody, please sit down. It appears I have quite a bit of explaining to do.

As everyone sits down, I get a text from Sam and Tucker

Sam: you ok? We haven't heard from you in a while

Tucker: ya what's going on? We still need to find the box ghost.

Danny: long story short, I told mom and dad I'm a half-ghost, so had Vlad. We are in the middle of talking about it right now. Talk soon, explaining everything later. PROMISE :)

I sat down my phone, and apparently, I zoned out a bit because my parents and Vlad were already in a heated argument. " I was in the hospital for most of my youth, and not ONE visit, did you expect me to truly call you friends after that?!" "YES, WE TRIED. YOU KEPT TURNING US AWAY. ME AND MADDIE WANTED NOTHING MORE THEN TO SEE YOU!" Vlad was red with anger at this point. " YOU COULD HAVE KEPT TRYING! WHAT I AM IS BECAUSE OF YOU. THE LEAST I EXPECTED WAS A VISIT, I WOULD HAVE RELENTED IF YOU KEPT TRYING!" oooooh boy. This is not good. "guys… can we quiet down a bit?" both my parents and Vlad turn around and snap "NOT UNTIL HE/THEY APOLOGIZE FOR WHAT THEY HAVE DONE!" they pause and look at each other. "aww see, friends already!" they glower at me as I sigh.

I tried at least. Seriously, how long can they fight?! My mom looks over. "Vlad as you know, we don't trust you. We don't like you. But you were once our friend. We would like to rekindle that. If you are willing to change your ways, we would like to start over." Vlad for once actually looked genuinely moved "… would you guys like to stay for dinner? Best steak in the state." Mom and dad nod. "that would be nice." Hmm. This is weird, but hey. Free food, sweet!
