Chapter 3

Danny Pov

Danny spent the next few days exploring the mansion. It was beautiful. He had found a game room filled with every videogame you could imagine. There a pool table, board games and a snack machine. There was also a gym. Danny trained and benched more than a regular guy thanks to his ghost strength but he even he could not lift what Vlad benched. Danny was shocked to realise how much stronger Vlad actually was. Danny knew he wasn't as strong as Vlad and the only reason he won was because Vlad let him.

Danny still felt unsettled around Vlad. He had no idea how to get close to him or even if he should. Danny looked around the mansion and even through it is beautiful it was missing something. There were no pictures of anyone. No family or friends or anything. It was bare. It finally dawned on Danny just how lonely Vlad actually was.

That afternoon when Vlad came home, Danny decided to learn more about him. They were sitting down for dinner, Danny asked him, "How come you don't have any pictures of anyone anywhere?" Vlad was shocked this was the first time Danny tried to talk to him, he just wished he picked a better topic. "Because I have no one to take pictures off Daniel." Danny looked confused, then sad, "But what about your parents or siblings?" he asked. Vlad decided it would be best to give him the truth and hope he never asked again. "My parents were not kind people Daniel. They were strict and mean. They were scientists, whomsaw the world in a very cold way. Everything had to do with logic and meaning. I never played games or did anything fun becuase they demanded that I be the best. The believed that ghosts could not exist and I became a beast to them. I never found love in my home and being half ghost sealed the final nail in the coffin. They disowned me. I never had any siblings. When woman only flock to you for money, you stay far away from them and I did. I never had a true person in my life because when I was younger I was a geek and now they all want something from me." Danny had a lot to think about now. Vlad always knew he would not be accepted because he was not either. He wanted to make Vlad feel better after making him so sad so he asked, "What do you do after dinner?" Vlad was surprised with that one but he assumed that Danny was trying to understand him and maybe offering a chance at a better relationship. "I train Daniel. Then some paperwork. Nothing much to do." Danny got excited at the word train and asked if he could come with him.

Vlad set Danny through some paces and upped certain parts of his training so the he would do better. They organized a regular schedule, for both of them so that Danny could train with Vlad. He also introduced Danny to a katana, Japanese swords. Vlad explained that by using a weapon it created displine in him, allowing him to focus his energy easier.

Vlad POV

He did not want to lie to the boy. He realised that if he lied he could lose Danny and these past couple days, he had been spending more time with the older halfa. Danny would train or ask questions about whatever book he had read that day or they would simply debate their different ideas. In the past few days, he had began to gain more weight and Vlad had been encouraging him to eat more protein and carbs. It was good for muscle build up. He decided that he would tell him the truth. That evening he sat Danny down and told him that his parents had told the town that Danny had run away and because they had no legal rights to you, they could not do anything about your decision. At first he had been furious, making him seem like a messed up kid probably taking drugs or something. Vlad had also told the boy that his friends did nothing to stop his parents. The good news was that Vlad was able to adopt Danny. He admitted that he may have put in some bribes so that they would seal his file but he was free of his parents. He also told Danny that he would have to go to school and it was his choice to go in as Masters or Fenton.

That night Danny spent thinking. He had been living with Vlad for a week and a half already and as far as Danny could see he had not lied to him. Vlad had already taught him things. Danny was healthier already and with the new programme Vlad had shown him, he was already getting stronger. He could feel it. He also encouraged Danny to think differently. They would spend hours talking about a business book that he had read during the day and even played chess with him. In every game, he had managed to last a little longer against Vlad. Danny couldn't say that he was ready to call Vlad his dad but he was ready to accept that he was no longer a Fenton.

Danny dressed differently now. Jeans and formal shirts. At first it was weird but he slowly grew to like it. Danny even felt different. He felt lighter and happier. He wanted to finish school. He would go to school as Danny Masters simply because he was never accepted as a Fenton.

When he told Vlad that he wanted to take his name, the older halfa looked as if he would start dancing in the spot. He gave a booklet, which read Silverstone High. It was a 20 minute drive from the mansion to the school. It was almost as big as Vlads house. Almost. There were lots of pictures of pupils wearing suits and girls wearing skirts. They all had laptops and just looking at the pictures he felt intimated.

Vlad noticed his reaction and said "Daniel, you will be representing me at this school. I am the worlds richest man and you know that. I recently passed Bill Gates on the list a year or so ago. You will be there as a Masters. You will represent me and I know you will do well. You never fought back at your old school because you were afraid you would hurt someone. In this school you must out smart your enemies and I know you have practice with that. Your ghost enemies always said you would not shut up. These children are spoilt brats, you will always be better than them and I expect you to believe it. They will not rely on physical bullying but they will test your intelligence against them. Remember your witty banter."

Vlad left Danny thinking about what he said and he looked at the pictures again then at Vlad. He would not let spoilt brats push him around because it would look bad for Vlad. He owed it to him to live up to the name if he used it so he would. Unconsciously, Danny straightened his shoulders and raised his chin, imitating Vlads posture. It also gave him a confidence boost.

Danny would start school next week but for now, it was time to buy him clothes for school as well as supplies. Vlad only wore the best which meant his suits were armani. He called his tailor and had Danny measured. He got him a gold watch and then a laptop. They discussed the classes he would take and Vlad made sure he put in another language and a tough business class. Danny worked well under pressure. Once everything was set Danny was still nevous but he had the weekend before school started so he decided on Saturday he would go out and be normal. He was spending to much time locked in here with Vlad, he needed a change of scenery.
