Chapter 2: Searching For Hope
(Danny's view)
I stared in horror because Amity Park was now forever ruined. I watched the trails of black smoke finding it way into the sky and the slight orange glow that surrounded the city. Fire. Buildings that used to sore to the sky line were now gone or torn in half and the sky had a eerie green and grey look to it. There was no sunshine, only a small chilly breeze that stirred the dead leaves. I stared at the ground unable to see my home like this any longer. I gripped the dead grass in my now shaking hands and screamed. My face grew hot and tears gushed down. It looked like a bomb went off or a twister went through here. Even as I stared at my hands I could pick up the faint smell of something burning. Everyone was dead. They have to be. There was no way anybody could survive this. I should have been here! This is all my fault. I sobbed as memories flashed continuously through my head. No more smiling goofy Tucker with his PDA. No more Sam with her sweet gothic smile. No more Jazz and her kind spirit. No mom, no dad, no Lancer, no Valerie, no Dash, no Paulina, no anybody! I sat in the grass covering my face with my hands and cried. My white hair began to get stuck to my sticky wet face. Wait, what am I doing? Why am I crying? I don't know for sure if they're dead. They could still be alive! I stood up and wiped my face on my sleeve. I looked at Amity Park with desperation. I'm Danny Phantom for goodness sake! I'm the protector of this city and it's my job to stay calm and well, protect it! I stood tall and with confidence, then I sprinted and jumped into the chilly air. I never want to see myself like that ever again! I won't give up on my town!
I slowly flew over the remains of my city. Its hard to recognize anything at this point. Abandoned cars blocked the streets, trash littered everywhere, houses on fire, but most of all I noticed how quiet it was. I floated to the ground, and listened. Nothing. There wasn't a single sound to be heard. That scared me. I slowly walked down the middle of the street and looked for any signs of life. I looked through some dusty windows, and found them abandoned as well. Is there anybody left? I clenched my fists in frustration. "This can't be happening." I needed a plan so I decided to check the major points in the town. First up, Casper High.
Casper High has some good memories there. Getting beat up by Dash, hanging with my friends, being the mascot, fighting ghosts, getting beat up by Dash, messing with Mr. Lancer, ok, well, there not ALL good but that's just my life. As I got closer to the school I noticed a particular change. A giant semi sitting in the middle of a destroyed classroom. I flew to the spot. I know this place. Its my math class, which if you asked me any day of the school week was OK to drop a heavy semi on. Since there was no roof, it was exposed to the elements and plants had invaded the walls and floor. I phased through the wall and into the hallway. I gasped. Papers covered the floor, lockers were torn off and ripped to shreds, and the only light was a blinking bulb on the other side of the long hall. It looked like a creepy horror movie. "Is anybody here?" I yelled down the hallway. It echoed back to me which sent a chill down my spine. I sighed. "I didn't think so" I whispered to myself. In frustration, my eyes glowed brightly and I punched a remaining locker. I flew through the roof and stared off into the distance. Nothing changed. I hoped if I just closed my eyes and counted to three then I would be sitting in the Nasty Burger with my friends having a great time. Which I knew would never happen again. Then I saw it. Two tiny eyes were watching me from the corner of a building…
