AN: For my story to work, Vlad would have fought Danny many times but not cloned him or any of the other crazy stuff. The worst he did was release Piarah Dark.
Thank you to Brenne for my first review on this fic. Im actually writing this chapter for you coz ur review got me so excited.
Chapter 2
Vlad Masters was a successful business man. He had built an empire in less than a decade and at 35 years, he was a powerful ghost however he was very lonely. He thought he loved Maddie but the truth was that she was the only woman he knew before he was successful. Now that he had all his money, many woman wanted him simply for his money. His only friend from before the accident had married the only woman who ever cared about him as well as left him alone. Jack called himself a friend but never once even bothered to visit him. He was terribly lonely all those years but he was able to read and learn so many different skills that had gotten him to the top. In the hospital to pass the time, Vlad had learnt languages and read every book on business he could find. He had gotten bored and started a business portfolio and when he had gotten better he put it into action and it worked. He reached new heights. His parents would have been ashamed that they threw him out because of the powers.
Vlad had been unlucky in poverty and riches. He was always alone. His parents had been harsh and strict. They taught him nothing and had been quick to throw him to the wolves once they learnt of his powers. Then he saw the boy. Daniel. It was perfect. A son. One just like him but the boy was loyal to Jack so Vlad played he villian. He used basic attacks, things that the boy would see and try to do the same when he did train. He fought Danny, easily, but the boy did a good job. Danny learnt faster than Vlad thought he would. His interest in business was endearing. It was easy to see, he was attention starved but he had a brilliant mind. He would be the perfect son. He had come to realise that Maddie was happy. Vlad could spend the rest of his life wondering or moving on and he chose to move on. All he ever wanted was for her to be happy but Daniel that was differnt. He was not happy but he believed that his family loved and appreciated him. He knew better. His parents had the same look that Vlad had seen on the face of his parents plenty times before. Once again life was cruel. All his money and power and he could still not have the one thing he always dreamed off. A family.
With all that in mind, the last thing he had ever expected to see was Danny, knocking on his door in the middle of the night looking as if he had just fought for his life. There were many things that he had planned for but this was not one of them. He had no idea what brought Danny here of all places especially when the child thought of him as the enemy.
Vlad did what he did best. He went looking for information so he could plan. The first thing he did was tap into the camera's he had set up inside the house. Maybe it was going over board but it really was just for safety. To make sure that Danny was ok and not dead. He hardly used them. He went back a couple hours to see, Dannys parents turn on him. He had always known that this day would come but he expected they boy to go to Miss Manson or Mr Foley when it happened.
Vlad pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed. There wasn't much he could do with Danny asleep but now that he had an idea of what happened, he was forced to wait until morning to see what the boy was thinking about coming here. He cancelled his appointments for the weekend and went to bed. It was going to to an intresting weekend.
Danny POV
Danny woke up, in a huge fluffy bed, that felt like cotten candy. He was in heaven. Skulker could smash in and demand a fight and all he would say is if you gonna put my pelt on your bed, let it be this one. For 10 seconds, he was in heaven, then reality set in. This was not his room. He opened his eyes to find himself in a huge cream and brown room. In the centre of the room was a black plush carpet with animals on it. There was a chandelier and huge glass windows that over looked the most beautiful garden. It all came rushing back, why he was here and now it seemed like a bad idea. Danny was dirty and hungry so he wandered into the bathrooom that was the size of his old room and took the best shower of his life. After phasing the water off his body he was shocked to find a pair of black jeans and a blue button down shirt with some converse. He put on a white muscle t shirt and left then button down opened. A motherly looking woman knocked and opened the door. "Mr Masters is waiting for you in the dining room for breakfast dear. Hurry along now. You slept the whole of saturday away." she chuckled to herself. So it was sunday morning and Vlad was probably waiting for an explanation. I was nervous. My palms were sweating and I was feaking out. I had no idea if Vlad actually cared all that much about me and what if I disappointed him too or what if he really did want to kill me. I was only recently thinking differently but this could end so bad.
Vlad was sitting at the head of the table, in his usual suit. He almost looked like he was smiling when he saw me. I took a seat at his right hand and ate the bacon and eggs quietly. When it was all gone, he raised an eyebrow at me and said "I know your parents did not accept your ghost half and I am appalled that Maddie has lost herself so completely to ghosts but why would you come to me?" I looked him in the eye and said "You were right. my friends and family could not understand me. Can I stay with you?"
Vlad smiled., for the first time ever I saw him smile and say "Of course you can. Your parents signed away all legal rights to you when you were caught in another lab accident. The only reason you were not taken away is because of Jasmine being so clever and when you spoke to the policeman you did not want to leave your family. If you want I can adopt you or just become my ward." I was shocked. He offered to adopt me. Someone actually wanted me! But first I had to know "Why all that villan stuff?" Vlads smile dropped of his face but he answered me "Because I was wrong Daniel. I have been alone for so long and when I want someone I become ruthless to get it. I tried the wrong way to offer my help. Maybe if I offered you friendship I wouldn't have been so lonely. Once I came to terms with Maddie being happy married to jack, I noticed that you were not. You were affection starved and shy so I fought you. I wasn't able to fix my first impression so I pushed you hard to discover your strength. I never gave you an injury you would not handle because I saw your strength." Danny started to cry. Finally someone cared so much and it wasnt his parents. He allowed himself to grieve for them leaving him, then nothing else. He would cry only once then he was determined to make Vlad proud of him. He would finally be the best son he could be. Danny Fenton was weak but not anymore. Vlad wouldn't be lonely anymore. He would be his son and he would be just like vlad. Powerful, ambitious and ruthless to his enemies. Danny was sure that vlad would teach him and he was going to do him proud because he believed in him. He would be Daniel James Masters.
