"Danny are you okay?" Maddie kneeled down next to Danny who had slumped to the floor.

"Yeah, but my other half, is he?" Danny pointed at the door. Maddie stood up and left to go check on Danny F.

"Jack?" she said from atop the stairs, "Is Danny alright?"

Jazz, Sam, Tucker and Jack all surrounded Danny who was slumped on the ground holding his pounding head.

"He had a little bump," Jack picked Danny back up.

"Dad slipped and Danny hit the wall," Jazz told Maddie.

"That's what I thought," Maddie said, "Phantom can feel it too." She ran down stairs and went up to Danny.

"Are you alright, Sweetie?" Maddie smoothed his hair.

"Yeah, I'm fine," Danny said, but in reality, his head was spinning. Jack put him in the armchair while Jazz laid a towel on the couch.

"I better go check on Phantom," Maddie told them.

"That's okay. You don't have to" Phantom flew down the stairs and sat on the floor in front of her.

Maddie laughed and ruffled his hair before picking him up and setting him on the couch.

"What do you guys want to do, watch TV or something," Jazz asked.

"Sure," both Danny's answered.

They flicked on the TV and watched Pirates of the Caribbean on icontrol. (Sorry, but I love that movie)

"You're father and I have some work to do in the lab," Maddie said after the movie had finished.

They had just entered the kitchen when Danny P. started to scream again. They immediately ran back into the living room to see what the matter was.

He was clutching his chest, the bandaged had been dissolved and the ectoplasm was once again dripping out. Danny F. was screaming too. He could feel the same pain as Phantom, and it hurt both of them like crazy.

"What's going on?" Maddie was about to run up to Danny when Jazz pushed her back into the kitchen.

"Jazz, let me see Danny," Maddie tried to shove Jazz out of the way.

"No! Whatever you used to separate Danny is reacting with his ectoplasm. It's too dangerous to be around him," Jazz pocked her head out the door way to watch the Danny's.

They both continued to scream. Phantom looked to be in more pain than Fenton. The ectoplasm in his body was burning him.

"Jack, look what we did to our son!" Maddie screamed as she continued to stare at Danny. Jack simply stared and gawked.

Phantom's screaming subsided as he keeled over letting out another pulse, although this time it was worse than earlier. One could swear they heard the walls begin to crack. It sounded like the house would crumble apart on top of them if these things got much stronger. The impact sent Fenton flying across the room right into the television. They both flew into the wall. Danny's head fell forward and his body fell limp as he entered unconsciousness.

Phantom's arms couldn't hold him up any longer as he too fell to the floor; in the same state as Fenton.

Maddie immediately ran up to Phantom, making sure to avoid the small puddle of ectoplasm residing near his chest. She picked him up and carried him over to the couch. Then, she picked up Fenton and put him on the opposite end of the couch. She stared at her boy; tears brimming in her eyes.

"Oh, this is all my fault. I never should have built that machine. Danny's in pain and dying, and I'm the cause of it and I can't help him. Oh, Danny why did I ever let this happen?" Maddie then let her tears flow freely. She ran up to her son and grabbed them in a back crunching hug, "I'm so sorry Danny. I'm so sorry."

"It'll be okay, Mom," Jazz put a hand on her back to reassure her. Maddie kept mumbling incoherent words to Danny.

The rest of the group also walked up to them to encourage Maddie and both halves of Danny. This is going to be hard.

Maddie lifted her head and looked straight at her husband, "Jack, we need to test on Danny."

Jazz, Sam and Tucker stared at her.

"I'll get the lab set up!" Jack boomed. He raced down into the basement as quick as a flash.

"Kids can you help me carry Danny?" Maddie picked up Phantom.

"Mom? You and Dad will be careful, right," Jazz asked nervously. She didn't want anything else bad to happen to her brother.

"Of course, I won't let anything bad happen to them, and I'll make sure your father doesn't either," Maddie started to walk to the lab.

Sam and Jazz picked up Danny F. and followed Maddie.

Maddie walked rather slowly. She stared at her son, guilty thoughts running through her mind. She felt so ugly, so dirty for what she had done. If only she could go back in time and stop all this from ever happening, everything would be okay. But the question that she wanted the answer to most was, "Why didn't Danny tell us about his powers?" she pondered on this for quite a while.

"Mom?" Jazz nudged Maddie who had stopped in the middle of the kitchen.

"Hmm? Oh sorry. Sweetie," she walked into the lab. Jack had gotten two tables set up and was now playing with a few action figures of himself and some ghost.

"Jack, it's time to start," Maddie said. She laid Phantom down on one of the tables while Sam and Jazz laid Fenton down on the other. Maddie strapped them down with an incredibly strong strap just in case Phantom's ectoplasm acted up again or something else weird happened with Fenton. She and Jack grabbed a lab coat and pair of goggles and put them on. Then, they grabbed what tools they would need. They chose only what they thought necessary. They didn't want to do too much to Danny.

"Kids, you may want to go wait upstairs," Maddie told them. They sighed, but obeyed.

"Promise me Danny will be okay," Jazz asked before she left the room.

"Promise."

As soon as they were gone, Maddie turned to Jack, "Let's begin.
