Wow, it has been such a long day. What time is it, 2:25 am? Dang, I hate that Box Ghost. Well, at least it's Friday. Maybe I'll be able to sleep in for once.

Now, to think about what I am. What did Spectra ask me…am I a ghost trying to fit in with humans, or a creepy little boy with creepy little powers? Ok, cross out the creepy bit. Well, at least I don't think I'm creepy.

Am I a specter living with humans? No, that would mean that I died. If I'm dead, why would I be able to keep my body? No, Spectra was wrong. I'm not dead.

Yes, I am a boy with ghost powers. But then again, why do I change into Phantom? Poindexter called me a halfa: half a human, half a ghost. Mom said this was impossible…or is it?

Maybe I should think about my characteristics between Fenton and Phantom. While I'm a Fenton, I'm an average kid who gets bullied by people bigger than me. Should I also mention more popular? I think I know what Big + Popular + Fat + Jock + Bully equals.

Ye-up. I'm talking about Dash. As Fenton, I'm weaker and I get more scared.

But when I'm Phantom, I'm braver, stronger, and popular. Heh, I've got my own Phan Club. But becoming Phantom also means enemies. Lost and lots of enemies. I really don't feel like naming all of them off right now.

But there are characteristics I have in both forms. Lets see…I rub the back of my neck when I'm nervous. I also have the tendency of making witty banter, but mostly in my ghost form. I still can't do math. I hate math.

Basically, Phantom and I are the same person. We are one. What do I mean we? I am one person. I am a boy with ghost powers and a secret identity. That's all.

Wow, that was easier than I thought. You know, I sometimes wonder what that portal did to me. How did I get these powers? Why me? Either way, I'm glad I have them. Sure, they came with a price. Inviso-Bill, Public Enemy Number 1, Valerie becoming a ghost hunter…yeah, torment. What is worse than the name, Inviso-Bill? Seriously, worst pun ever! Public enemy? I'm an enemy and a hero. Ironic.

Still, I do feel sorry for Valerie. It's not entirely my fault. Cujo just really wanted that squeaky toy. It just so happened it was Valerie's dad who worked at Axion labs.

What was his name again? Oh, right: Damon. Odd. Damon sounded a lot like Demon. Is Damon a Demon?Get a grip with yourself, Fenton! Of course Damon isn't a demon. You're just thinking funny because it's 3:45 in the morning!

Wait, it's that late? I really need to get to sleep. At least I don't have homework this weekend.

I wonder what my parents would do to me if I told them my secret…It would make my life easier if they knew. Should I tell them? What would they do?

Well, I had a little trouble with this one. Valerie's Dad is Damon, right? If not, please let me know so I can fix this.

Next chapter will be Danny's imagining all the ways his parents could react if he told them he was Phantom.
