Here you are ladies and gentlemen. This chapter includes two songs by Pink Floyd from "TheWall." The songs The Trial and Goodbye Cruel World (in that order) can be found on my website. Thank you Twinkie for reviewing the previous chapter. Yeah, it seems like Paulina seems to be a magnet for ghost activity.
Read, Review, and Enjoy!
"My…gosh!" Sam sighed, her breath taken by Danny. "Where did that come from?"
"Well, Sam. I..." Danny started to explain but was soon interrupted by Paulina.
"He has always had feelings for you, Samantha." Danny, Sam, and Tucker looked at Paulina. Though, it really wasn't Paulina. "He still keeps pictures of you and him under his bed. He sneaks into your room while you sleep and just stares at you." Sam looked at Danny, somewhat uneasy. Danny began to explain himself, but the green-glowing Paulina interrupted again. "Oh, don't try to act so innocent, goth girl! Once you figured out that ring he gave you was meant for you, you just went nuts! You wrote his name over and over, drew him in different costumes, some tighter than others, and even began collecting objects he's given you or forgot about at made some sort of Danny shrine. The centerpiece of which was the ring. You even carry it around during school or kiss it for good luck." Danny looked at Sam in an odd way.
"How do you know all that? Who are you?!" Danny and Sam asked together.
"Me?" Suddenly the worm slunk out of Paulina's body, leaving her unconscious again. "I am the Great Honorable Worm! I am here to tell the truth," he suddenly grew to the size of a large building, "the whole truth," arms grew from his sides, grabbing Danny, shortening out his powers and holding him up to his face, "and nothing but the truth!"
"What are you talking about?" Danny asked in shock, trying to force himself out of his grip.
"You see," the Worm started, grabbing Sam and Tucker with his extra arms and placing them in a worm-made torture device, their heads and arms through a certain hole, "I speak the truth for those who lie. And you three have quite a lot of lies. But yours, my dear boy, are the most disgusting. You've lied to the whole town and the world. Your lies have gotten you and your friends in all sorts of danger and trouble. I am here to tell the truth…to everyone!" Suddenly, people started to gather around the location the Worm was, trying to see what was going on. They had faces of curiosity and fear. They stood around the gigantic Worm as he began to speak. "Yes! Yes! Come one, come all!
Worm: Good evening, ladies and gentlemen
I'm here to tell you that this boy who you all see before you
Has been caught terribly LYING
Lying to all you good human people
This shall not do!
For instance,
This boy has been up to no good
With that Danny Phantom
In fact, he known him quite personally for the longest time
In fact, you could say
That they where just one person
But the FULL TRUTH is much worse
And there's justice still to pay
Danny: Mercy!
Please do not tell them
Oh, have mercy
They will just condemn
They'll just take the truth the wrong way!
Sam and Tucker: Mercy!
Please do not tell them
Oh, have mercy
Valerie [very mad: You little jerk
It would'a never worked
How could you lie like this to me?
You should've told me
When we where still together
BUT NO!
You had to go your own way
Has he broken any homes up lately?
Just five minutes, you stupid ghost
Him, me, alone
Maddie: BAAAABE!
[To Jack He's got our Danny Baby!
I need to hold him in my arms
Jack: But Maddie, he knew the ghostboy
He could'a gotten into trouble
Maddie: I don't care, Jack!
I just want him back!
Stupid ghost! Let me take him home!
Danny: Mercy!
Not in front of them!
Please have mercy!
I'll tell them myself.
There must be a better way to go, and this is not it!
Sam and Tucker: Mercy!
Please be so kind as to have mercy!
Worm: The boy I hold here is
Not just Danny Fenton
Zaps him and turns him into Danny Phantom
He is also Danny Phantom, as you see
In all my years of tattling I have never seen before
A boy so disserving and nothing more!
The way you made them suffer
Your little girlfriend and the other
Fills me with a sickness oh so great!
Since, my boy, you have put them through so much
I'll put them out of their misery so no longer can you touch
TELL THEM THE TRUTH
Crowd: TELL US THE TRUTH
[Repeats
The torture device suddenly sprouted a raised blade and took the characteristics of a guillotine. Danny looked in fear, the crowd still screaming "Tell Us the Truth!" Danny felt the worm's hand loosen as he laughed maniacally, which eventually lead to Danny wiggling through and rocketing toward Sam and Tucker, the blade beginning to drop. Time slowed down in Danny's mind:
Danny: Goodbye cruel world
I'm leaving you today
Goodbye, goodbye…goodbye
Goodbye all you people
There's nothing I can say
To make you change your minds
Goodbye…
Time suddenly sped up, wind rushed passed Danny as he shot into the device, breaking the blade from it's downward direction and impaling it into the ground. The force of Danny's body also destroyed the rest of the device, freeing Tucker and Sam. Danny couldn't stop and shot into the building nearby, destroying it with his speed and force. It fell to the ground and everyone was silent for the longest time. The rubble was left unmoved. What happened to Danny?
