Lancer' s point of view:
"What could he have possibly been talking about?" Kwan asks as soon as I get back downstairs. I had decided to put Danny in the guest bedroom so that we could talk.
"I don't know," I answer. "He wasn't in the right state of mind. His father did something so horrible to him that he can't think straight when his father is mentioned."
"Do you think it was that accident that he was talking about?" Starasks.
"I don't know," I answer.
"He did say that his dad was experimenting on him," Kwan says.
"He did, but why would a ghost hunter experiment on a child?"
"Do you think that his father is crazy?" Star asks.
"No. He seemed lucid when he was talking to me."
"He went off the deep end when he found out my secret," I hear a voice say behind me. I turn around to see Danny standing in the doorway.
Danny's point of view, day of the accident:
I look at my patents. I didn't see them when I changed from Phantom to Fenton. My mom seems to be ok with it, but dad dragged me to the lab and strapped me to a table as soon as we got home.
"How are you human and ghost? Is not possible," he says. He looks at me and I know that he isn't the same person that raised me. He has this look in his eye.
"There was an accident with the Ghost Portal," I whisper. I look over to the glass. He locked mom, Jazz, Tucker, and Sam in a glass cage because they tried to stop him. Then I look back at him. He has this really big thing in his hands, something that have never seen before.
"Jack, don't! You'll kill him!" Mom yells.
"I don't care! He's not our son! He's a monster!" Except I wasn't the monster, he was. He brings the knife like thing down and I feel unbearable pain in my side. I see Phantom float up, but he turns around. He tries to get back into me, but my dad is determined to keep him away.
"Dad," I whisper.
"I am not your father, you are not my son!"
"Dad!" Jazz yells and he looks in her direction long enough for me and Phantom to merge agian. I use my ghost strength to get off of the table and I kick the thing away from him. It hits the portal and then everything goes back. I remember Jack pushing past me and getting out, but now as I sit up, I look straight at the glass cage. Glass is everywhere from where it broke and I see mom and Jazz laying in pools of blood. I can tell that they're dead just by looking at them. Tucker and Sam got blasted against a wall. They're dead, too and there is nothing that I can do about it. If I had been more careful then they would still be alive. I pick up a piece of the glass and bring it across my wrist.
Back to present time, Star's point of view:
"He said that I wasn't his son," Danny whispers. He walks over to us and sits on the couch in between Kwan and me.
"I'm so sorry," I say.
"It's not your fault. I just wasn't careful."
"If you don't mind me asking, what was your secret, Danny?" Mr. Lancer asks.
A/n I do not own Danny Phantom.
