Disclaimer: I don't own Danny Phantom.
Summary: O.M. Freaking G. That last chapter was so short, and I haven't updated since...holy F! March of last year??? o.o Here goes nothing, then! Oh. And one more thing. I had one person leave a flame which made absolutely NO sense at all. It says that this story is gy and that it is disgusting. I read it, and I think I get where this person was going. No, Danny and Dash are not a pairing in this story. I dislike slash. I don't hate it, per se, but I don't actively promote it. Nope, not me. Sigh. Okay, now that that's over, on to the much anticipated (I think) fourth chapter of WDA! Enjoy!
Compelling Thoughts
Sam and Tucker were just about to start heading towards the janitor's closet, when Danny burst out of the closet, screaming his head off and not realized where he was blindly running. Tucker ran over and caught Danny just before he ran into the wall and pushed him onto the nearest bench. Sam then sat next to Danny, giving him a hug and asking him,
"Are you alright? You look like the apocalypse just hit." Danny took a few deep breaths and managed to reply.
"I...Dash...secret...urgh..." Sam's eyes widened as comprehension slowly dawned on her.
"Oh my gosh! Dash found out? But how?"
"I was beating him up, and...well...he saw me transform."
"What???" Tucker exclaimed. "How'd you get tired that quickly, man?"
"I don't know. I actually didn't feel tired until I knocked Dash onto the floor. I think...I think he landed on something, but I'm not sure. All I know is that he fell down, and then I started losing energy. Fast." Groaning, Danny stood up and stretched his tired muscles out. "Let's head home. I'd better get there before Mom or Dad...no, just Mom...harps on me about not telling her where I was and all that fun stuff."
Nodding, Tucker grabbed his PDA off of the ground where he dropped it, dusted it off, and gave it a small kiss; effectively earning himself a strange glance from the other two.
"What? It fell down, and I want to make sure it isn't hurt."
"Tucker...that's an inanimate object incapable of human emotions." Sam remarked. Shrugging, Tucker put his treasure into his backpack and walked with Sam and Danny out the front doors and towards FentonWorks.
DDDDD
Meanwhile, back at UltraPosh PolterHeights, a well-dressed businessman paced impatiently back and forth in his reading room, thinking to himself. He sighed and sat down in his chair, his cat Maddie promptly jumping into his lap and purring. As Vlad idly stroked the feline's luscious fur, his surveillance television's light started flashing. He jumped, scaring the cat and promptly earning a leg full of claw. Hissing, he gently pulled Maddie off of his leg and reached for the remote. He flicked the television to life and watched as Dash landed in the janitor's closet, falling on...something. Vlad watched closely as Danny promptly lost energy and reverted to human form. He got confused and wondered why beating up a mere human boy would cause such fatigue.
Grinning evilly, Vlad walked over to a section of his library wall and glanced at the titles, stopping at a book titled, "Ghost Weaknesses".
DDDDD
Once back at FentonWorks, Danny and his friends trudged upstairs to his room and sat in various places. Danny was still thinking about his sudden unexplained loss of energy, and Tucker was playing Pac-Man on his PDA. Sam stood up and walked over to the window, gazing out into the street.
They stayed like this for another hour or so, surprisingly. Tucker had fallen asleep in his beanbag chair, and Sam and Danny were in semi-trances from their deep thinking. Slowly, Danny snapped out of his thinking and walked over to Sam.
"It's a really nice twilight, isn't it?" Sam looked a bit shocked to come out of her zen mode, but smiled and nodded in agreement. "It's days like this where I feel...I don't know...normal, I suppose. That is, until I go for a fly." Danny finished his last sentence with one eyebrow raised and one hand extended, as if in invitation. Sam blushed slightly and simply said,
"I'd love to." Blushing as well, Danny phased into ghost mode and held Sam's hand; tightly, but not numbing. Turning intangible, the two teenagers flew through the window and zoomed off into the multi-colored sky.
After they left, Tucker peeked one eye open and snickered. He had caught their blush on candid camera.
As they flew above the skyscrapers of downtown Amity Park, Danny asked Sam where she wanted to go, if anywhere. Sam thought about this a bit, and then settled on saying,
"Well...I suppose the park by the big hill outside of town would be nice. We could feed the ducks, or take a quick swim, or...just...talk." She smiled at the last part. Oh, how Sam wished they could be more than just friends. However, she suspected that they were already dating, just not officially. As if he knew what she was thinking, Danny smiled and said,
"The park. Sure."
DDDDD
At the downtown gym, Dash stepped down from the weights stand and took a big swig of his water bottle. He hated to admit it, but he enjoyed eating healthy and all that stuff. He then went into the locker room and started throwing his smelly sweats into his bag, getting ready for a quick shower before heading home. As the steaming hot water flowed over him, Dash couldn't help but let his mind go back to the incident after school that day. Man. I still can't believe what I saw. Maybe I'll come back Monday and I'll find out that I was dreaming. Yeah. Or...goats could speak Pig Latin with a British accent. Yeah right. I saw what I saw. It's just so...aaaccckkk! My head hurts again! How do those brainiacs do it?
He stepped out of the shower and dried off. He then changed back into his clothes from before and threw his bag into his locker, slamming the door shut behind him. I need to get home before I go crazy...mmph! His thoughts were cut off as the world around him went black and his head spun into unconsciousness.
Wow. This chapter made me happy. I never even thought of the story going this way at first. In a way, I'm kinda glad I put it off for so long! Oh well. Hope you all like this chapter, and maybe this'll actually be the start of more updates soon; not only for WDA, but for WRLACC and OJ too. Heh. OJ - I never realized that. Lol.
TGH
