Chapter 6: Me and my parents
It had been roughly a week since that day Vlad found out the truth, and surprisingly enough things were back to normal.
Danny continued going to school and fighting ghost and keeping his identity and powers secret from his loving parents while Sam and Tucker helped him fight crime and keep his grades up.
Everything was normal for the ghost boy, well everything besides dreams he had been having since that night. Dreams that were, inappropriate and uncomfortable and certainly not about any girl he knew.
"Danny you okay man?" Tucker asked and looked up from his PDA, he had been asking the other boy if he was ever going to beg his parents for a PDA but no response came from his best friend causing some concern.
"Uh, yeah just tired I guess." Danny hoped Tuck accepted that excuse but he didn't stick around long enough to find out before waving goodbye and rushing towards home to finish his history project that was due tomorrow. Now he was seriously wishing he had listened to Sam and not procrastinated, but he was willing to pull an all nighter to finish it. It was ether that or tell his parents he failed history class.
"Was that Danny?" Sam asked as she walked outside of the school to her boyfriend who was staring off in the direction Danny went.
"Yeah" Tucker said slowly and grabbed the Goth girl's hand "I know he said everything was cool now, but I get the feeling it isn't."
Sam nodded showing she understood, she had been getting weird vibes all week since Danny told her and her boyfriend what happened between him and Vlad. But she wasn't sure if the sickening feeling in her gut was just because her friend seemed to be hiding something or if the cause was something totally different.
"Wanna go hang out at your place?" The nerdy teen asked bringing his girlfriends out of her thoughts.
"Sure I guess, but you have to play another round of cards with my grandma."
"Why?" Tucker whined remembering last time he played with the old woman "She wins every game!"
Sam laughed and pulled her boyfriend towards her house.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dan looked down from the tree he was hiding in at the teens that appeared to have gotten together since he last saw them.
"How cute." He sneered and looked in the direction Danny went in.
The evil ghost wished to see the chaos that was about to happen in the Fenton home, but he was pressing his luck already. The boy may have not sensed him, but the Fenton ghost detectors would catch him soon as he touched the doorstep. So Dan would have to be satisfied with just listening to the screams that echoed outside.
Laughter erupted from the blue skinned man as he flew off in the direction of the Fenton family home; this was going to be good!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Danny opened the front door and walked into his house not bothering to lock it since Jazz would be coming home soon.
"Mom, Dad, I'm home." He yelled in the silent house figuring his parents were in the lab, but to his surprise as he began walking up the stairs his mother called for him in a somewhat strained voice from the kitchen.
"Danny come here, we need to talk." The teen mentally went over everything he could have done wrong in the past few days but couldn't find anything; he had been on top of everything. Homework, with an exception to the history project, chores, ghost fighting, ect…
"Hey mom." Blue eyes studied the two adults at the table who looked like they just got horrible news. His eyes flickered to the picture on the table only to do a double take.
The 16 year old blanched at the picture, how something like that could exist he didn't know since he had never posed with Vlad let alone kissed the older man.
But that was what the picture showed; he and Vlad flushed and too wrapped up in kissing to notice whoever was taking the photo.
"How long have you been seeing Vlad?" Maddie asked in an oddly calm voice, but Danny sensed his mother's displeasure and it was easy to notice that the red headed woman refused to look at him.
His dad on the other hand was studying him like he was one of his ghost specimens, not saying a single word. That alone told Danny his dad was mad, or least disturbed with the fact his son was kissing his best friend in the picture.
"I'm not dating Vlad." Danny stated after a moment of thinking. Saying 'That's not me' would be lame and unbelievable since it clearly was Danny in the picture, and his explanation for how it was not him would be ridiculous even to scientist parents.
Plus that involved telling them he was a ghost for certain proof he wasn't lying and the teenager was not ready for that quite yet.
"Then what is this?" Maddie looked up with her violet eyes and Danny paled, he had never received that gut retching look before.
"Mom…" The teenager trailed off, what could he say?
"Danny go to your room." Jack ordered suddenly with a voice that was not to be argued with causing Danny's stomach to cramp up even more.
Without saying a word the teen left the kitchen and slowly walked to his bedroom fearing what was about to take place.
As bad as life were going to be for him, he could only imagine how bad things were going to be for Vlad. What if his parents called the police? Not only would that lead to bad press for the man, but what of he lost everything over that one picture that Danny still couldn't figure out how it got in this time.
Vlad could go to jail, lose his home, his money. What would happen to Vladdy? If the picture was going to be hard to explain, how was Danny supposed to explain a kid who would have to come live with him if Vlad went to jail?
A soft sigh escaped the halfa as he collapsed onto his bed…Why did life have to be so complicated?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Red eyes narrowed, Dan was expecting more yelling, but so far he heard nothing. Were the boy's parents really that laid back they didn't care who their son dated?
Not from what he remembered, the parents he remembered were everything but laid back when it came to parenting. Yet they neglected him enough not to see the fact he was half ghost.
"I suppose I should stop playing games." The evil ghost said absently and continued to watch the Fenton house from across the street. But he did love playing with his pray before the kill.
His alter self in the future was evidence of that. Not much of a challenge, the future Danny was broken by his games before he actually killed him. Now the question was how was he going to torment the boy in this time?
The picture he salvaged from the boys future home was a nice start in ruining the child's life, but that was only the beginning.
Dan didn't want to kill off family members yet; he wanted to try a different route this time, one that would make everyone be just as broken as the boy himself was going to be.
"Let's start now." Dan muttered as he sent an ecoblast towards a nearby power line, taking out the power to the Fenton house.
No ghost detecting now…
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Maddie looked up in surprise along with her husband, not knowing why the power went out.
"Jack, you go talk with Danny while I go see what the problem is." The red head stated standing in the dark kitchen.
"What am I suppose to say?" The large man asked and squinted to see his wife in the darkness. He was at a loss at what to do besides go to Wisconsin and give his best friend a piece of his fist for touching his son! Jack was positive he would kill the man if he found out he did more then kiss with Danny.
But the picture was so…heated, Jack didn't want to think that his 16 year old son was having sex but the picture implied that he was.
The large man shuddered at the thought.
"We need to figure out what they did together and whether or not to press charges against Vlad." Maddie stated calmly and pulled out a Fenton Flashlight from one of the kitchen drawers.
"I know…" He said solemnly fiddling with his gloved fingers "But what if he loves Vlad?"
The mom flinched at that question, Danny would hate them for taking him away from Vlad if he did in fact love the older man, but it would have to be done. A sixteen year old could not date a man in his fortes!
"We'll handle one thing at a time." Jack nodded and watched his wife leave the kitchen before sinking into the wooden chair. He would go upstairs in a few minutes; first he needed to figure out what he was going to say.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Danny looked up from his pillow as his bedroom light turned off suddenly, did his parents turn off the power to his bedroom as a punishment?
'That's a new one.' He thought grimly and buried his head into the pillow again. He could not figure out how the picture ended up in this time, let alone in his parent's hands, coincidence was not an option in this one.
His mind was also freaking out about Vlad, sure there was nothing between them but the worry was still gnawing at his insides.
The teen shivered at the thought of all the possibilities of what was going to happen next, only to lift his head from the pillow when he realized it wasn't his thoughts that made him shiver, but how cold his room had become.
"Plasmius?" Blue eyes went wide at the sight of the older halfa smirking in his bedroom, he didn't know what the man was doing here but that smirk couldn't mean anything good "Where is Vladdy?"
"Don't worry about him Danny." The teen watched the villainess man revert back to his human state.
"Why are you here? My parents will kill you if they catch you in my room." Danny told the man who was slowly moving closer "Some how they got a picture of us in the future, now they think you and I did stuff together!"
Whatever reaction Danny thought he was going to get, he didn't, Vlad seemed to not have heard a word he said.
"What are you doing?!" Danny asked as he jerked away from the man who dared to touch his face. The teen had to suppress a yell when the older man suddenly grabbed his wrist and pinned him onto the bed he was sitting on.
"What are you doing, get off me Vlad!" The teen old hissed ready to phase out from under Vlad if his explanation wasn't good, and it better have been a good explanation!
"I just wanted to see you squirm." Vlad stated and let out a small chuckle "As they say revenge is a dish best served cold."
Blue eyes blinked in confusion, revenge? Revenge for what? Wasn't there a mutual agreement that they wouldn't fight anymore? At least he thought there was a mutual agreement, was he wrong?
…Unless he did something really wrong to the older man. Danny couldn't think of anything he had done recently besides destroying his hope for ever being with his dream woman. But besides that he didn't understand what was going on, this was unlike Vlad, it was almost like it wasn't him…
"Dan?" The teen questioned in a horse whisper, not liking how the bigger mans smile grew "How? I was supposed to have beaten you."
"You were supposed to but like the rest of your friends you failed." Dan leaned in still grinning madly "Now I'm going to make this life of yours a living hell before I kill you and everyone you know."
Both males looked away from each other at the sound of the bedroom door that opening revealing a heavy man looking ready to kill.
"Vlad!"
