Hellbreaker, yeah she is pretty relieved, but at the same time she is dealing with issues in that particular relationship. She is torn since she avoided them for their push on who she should be, but at the same time she is mad that she couldn't see their own deterioration.
NoOne's Twilight, thanks for adding to your alerts.
Danny couldn't believe what he was hearing! Sam had been staying in doors and yet here she was, but before he could take a step toward her another figure stopped him, the green eyes familiar as he had seen them in the mirror millions of times.
"Dan!" he hiss, his voice drawing the attention of the couple down below, but before either could see them Dan grasped Danny and disappeared. The man standing next to Sam narrowed his eyes as he looked at the space the two males had been hovering. Sam began to walk away because for some reason she felt no attachment. She felt like a doll walking, nothing bothering her or keeping her attention. That got Thtaed's attention quick enough that he rushed to join her all the while his eyes watching that spot. As soon as they were far enough Dan made the pair reappear.
"I know that you don't like me and believe when I say the feeling is mutual, but I couldn't stand by and let Sam be taken down like this, not when I let her die that first time." Danny cocked a brow at his other half. That was a strange thing for him to say since he hadn't been against killing her when the trio had tried to find out why all the ghosts were trying to kill him. "And I am not going to explain myself any further, but I am going to give you my warning right now. Either step back or help, but I wouldn't hesitate to contain you in a fucking thermos!" With that the other ghost headed off in the direction of Sam's house.
For a minute Danny hovered there, not sure what was going on and not sure if what was going on was a good thing or not, but in the end he followed because all that mattered was that Sam was safe.
A few moments later found the pair of halfas hovering on the edge of town where Sam stood with Thaed, their backs to the ghost men. Sam wasn't holding his hand, nor were the couple really touching, but the conversation was flowing.
"So, you've only dated a few guys and none of them were what you wanted?" Sam nodded, her eyes looking out at the road that stretched beyond them, the road to leave Amity. "Sad, are you looking for Mr. Right?"
"I was, but I know there is no such thing, not for me anyway." Danny looked to Dan in confusion because he had expected to rush at the guy accompanying Sam, but no, the other ghost was just staring, his green eyes glowing in the early morning darkness. "No one has really understood me, but not because they don't want to but because they never can. I am just too messed up to understand."
"Is that what the poem was about?"
Poem? Both halfas wondered at the same time. Danny could remember the old bookstore that the Goth had gone to on a number of occasions and though it had been shut down long ago Danny could remember the place and how it had looked on the inside, Danny only having gone there once when he had seen Sam sneaking out of her house one night. He had gone and listened to the others talk, sing, or rant, but he had never seen her step on stage.
"Yeah, that's part of it, but the other half has to do with a close, well, not as close as we were before, but he's my only real friend." She looked down at her feet now, a gust of wind blowing her hair forward.
"You sound depressed, Sam. Do you want to kill yourself?" She shook her head at the repeated question. "You sound like you've had a terrible life. One friend, horrible parents, and not a mate in sight." The Goth sighed. "Loneliness is a horrible feeling, but we all feel it until you become like myself and learn to live without a heart." She looked to him in confusion.
"Like your poem?" He shook his head. "You have no heart?" He nodded and taking her hand placed it on his chest, her fingers curling at the human contact before relaxing to feel for his heartbeat. No such thing happened. Not a twitch and then Sam realized that his chest was ice cold. "How?" He smirked at her.
"I'm different, like you, but in an destiny I inherited from my parents." She raised a brow at the same time the halfas behind her did. "I told you my name, but as I can not utter it until my partner says it first I can not tell you who I am." He touched her hand, his fingers like ice. "I came for you because you, like so many, are lonely and are not ready to take that step."
"What step?" He shook his head as he removed her hand. "What is the step after loneliness?" Shaking his head he turned with her hand still in his, both of them shocked to find the pair of halfas glaring at them. "Danny?" Then her eyes fell on Dan, her amethyst orbs growing wide in shock, but no fear. "Dan?" She was so confused and yet that was all she could utter, her fear gone. Anger was all she felt in that spit second. "What the fuck do you think you are doing?!" She looked to Danny, her finger coming out to poke him in the chest. "Are you fucking stupid?! We had this conversation years ago about spying on me and then to top that off you are with the one that wanted to kill you!"
"Now, listen Sam, it's not like that." Danny splayed his hands out in defense as Dan reached out, his hands closing around that hand that held Sam's.
"Release her." The man smirked and shook his head. "Let her go. This is not one that you want to fuck with." Thaed shook his head as he yanked her back toward him, his eyes flashing black, the white in his eyes completely gone. Sam could feel the chill from both men and in that instant it hit her. Dan's hand was removed with the cold male's wrist.
"Death." The man at her side nodded as he turned to her. "Death. You're Death?"
"Step away from her!" Dan yelled as the pair of halfas tried to step between the couple. "She isn't ready!" Sam looked into his eyes, her own still a bright amethyst. He looked to Dan and Danny.
"Not yet, but Sam is almost ready to move on." Around them the sky began to lighten, the stars glittering in their last moments of night. "She called me. Sam was calling out for release and so I came." Looking back at the Goth standing before him in confusion. "You needed someone to help you through all the angst that is your life. The love that you felt rejected, the parents that couldn't see past your exterior and your friend that couldn't see you as a person."
"That's not true!" Danny cried out, Dan staying silent next to him. The halfa looked to the dark half of himself and commanded him to help, but Dan just stared, his mind going back to the times that he had walked past Sam onto a crush that he had had for forever. "I care about her as a person!" Sam blinked now, her mind also going back to those times, but unlike how Danny was seeing them Sam was seeing them in a new light.
"The popular people were always what Danny wanted, even when they crushed him that was all he wanted." She looked to the halfas to her right. "Don't you remember ignoring us when Tucker and I wanted to hang? The times that you left us to clean up after you. You never saw us as anything but sidekicks that had no life. You looked right at me as the building exploded, your green eyes the last ones I saw," she said as she looked to Dan. "You didn't care."
"That's not true!" Dan stated, his green eyes glowing. "I tried to get there in time, but my powers weren't enough." She shook her head. "I loved you and you were in the wrong place at the wrong time. You should have been home when that happened! No one should have been there!"
"But I was because I was concerned about you and that's when it happened. I died." Danny watched the emotions that flitted across the older halfa's face. "No one cared enough to save us...me." She could see that moment in the car again, her hands beginning to shake. "No one cared. Obligation. That is what I am." She looked to Death. "I don't want to die. I want to go." Making him release her she turned away from him and headed back, past the two white haired male and back toward her house.
"Yes!" Danny said as he smirked at the male who referred to himself as Death. "She doesn't want to die." Death's smirk didn't fade as he watched the Goth walk away. Danny blinked as he realized that Death didn't look upset. Dan was also looking to the cold male. "Why aren't you upset."
"You will see." With that he was gone in a flash of smoke, the black and blue element disappearing in a gust of wind."That's not good," Dan stated as he looked to the lightened skies over them. "He's not done yet and we need to find out how long Sam has been under his spell." Turning the way that Sam had gone he took to the skies, Danny following him quickly.
Scrap From My Destiny's Gateway Fanfic (Returning to Love)
"You're a half ghost." He wasn't surprised at her guess.
"Yes, I am a halfa, like your friend, Daniel. The difference between the two of us is that I was born into my body and not given the powers, but that has nothing to do with us." Moving toward her he held out the rag, but Sam refused to give in and kicking out managed to catch him off guard. Shoving his head into the toilet bowl she rushed out of the stall and past her mother toward the door. Grasping the knob she found that she was locked in. Desperate she aimed the device toward the door and pressing a button watched it blast a hole in the wooden door. Before she could make a run out the door she found herself shoved into the door with a loud thud. Groaning as she was slammed again and again into the door she found her vision blackening and her body slacking.
"Don't worry, Samantha," came his voice in ear, the heat of his breath bringing the urge to vomit back even as her world grew darker. "Your mother is safe and you, you will enjoy everyday I abuse your body." That was when her world finally faded and darkness welcomed her and she welcomed it.
