This is from Valerie's point of view (however it's still in third person)

Me: *blinks* did that make sense?

Computer Me: Nope!

Me: *glares* I wasn't asking you, go back to surfing the web or something. Anyways as O was saying it's in Valerie's Point of View, but it's in Third Person, of when Phantom saved her and then some

Computer Me: IT STILL DOESN'T SENSE!

Me: SHUT-UP!

Chapter 3: Why?

Valerie was faintly aware of strong arms grabbing her and pulling her up to the surface, that was her last memory, the next thing she knew she was coughing loudly, and spewing up water all over the ground. She looked around slowly, then she saw him Phantom, why was he here? Then an impossible thought came to her. He had saved her, he had saved his enemy. That's when she broke down, she had almost died, no correction she was sure that for a short period of time she had been dead, gone, lost from the world. Then her worst enemy, the one she had sworn to destroy, had saved her.

Finally Phantom pulled her out of her thoughts, "Val are you, are you okay?" He asked slowly.

Valerie knew that usually she would snap at him, tell him not to call her Val and so on, but this time it was different this time she just kept looking down and muttered, "I was dead, for a couple seconds I was dead. Wasn't I? I was dead, gone."

Danny blinked unsure of what to say, but Valerie kept talking. "Then you my worst enemy, you of all people rescued me. Why? I've hurt you and those you love, why did you help me?"

She looked up at him her vision blurry from tears, and ignoring the confusion and surprise, begged with her eyes for an answer.

Phantom looked at her for a second then shrugged, "It's my job. I protect people, even ghost hunters like you. I don't want to see anyone hurt and I almost failed at that, I almost let you die and all because I couldn't catch you. All because I wasn't good enough." Phantom cried curling up into a ball, water dripped from his hair and clothes and for once the Hunter and the Prey were silent, and enjoyed the silence, for once they didn't fight.

Finally Valerie broke the silence and said softly, "thank you." Not even caring that Phantom was crying AND showing emotions something a ghost shouldn't be able to do.

Phantom looked up at her shocked, "what?"

"I said thank you, if you had held a grudge and decided to let me die." She took a shaking breath and continued, "If it wasn't for you I would, I would be-" She stopped and took a deep breath as Phantom finished for her.

"You would be dead."

She nodded, "I mean how could you forgive me, I've hunted you ever since I found out about you, how could you just save me?"

Phantom looked at her, his emerald green eyes were happy as if he had waited forever to tell her this and he answered, "You had my forgiveness the moment you attack me."

Valerie blinked and looked at him surprised, she opened her mouth to ask him why, but before she could darkness began to creep into her eyes and again she was wrapped in the blanket of sleep, but this time death couldn't reach her and she knew this.

REVIEW REPLIES!

MariaAnderson8998: Lol, no actually the end has a HUGE twist, but you'll have to wait for it. Actually I am a complete supporter of DxS, however I do like writing a tiny bit of DxV fluff every now and then, but it always turns into DxS (usually, not in this story. But this is not a DxV focused story)

Aslan333: Thanks

BlueCalumon: Don't worry, people rarely die in my stories. And even when they do I usually bring them back somehow or another. (I don't like killing people XD) or I have it turn into a happy-ish ending like I did in Gone. The only stories I can think of where someone truly dies are The Hybrid Wars and Failure. (Ironically Failure is one of my better stories ^^;)

Ry22: Yep XD it's always DxS this. DxS that. Or DANNY AND SAM FINALLY KISSED *fangirl squeal* Ya you get the point… I've done three other stories that are Valerie based, she's just such a fun character. *thinks* Now that I think about it one of those stories really needs a second chapter *adds to, To Do List* There (Don't get me wrong I totally support DxS, but I love to play with Val's feelings XD)

Namara Jane Knight: Lol don't worry there are two more chapters after this one I think

ThePurpleSuperCow: Lol, yes there is more EPICNESS!

FloridaPhantomGirl: :D he he it is fun to do…

Tatiana Eleyna: Thanks, here you go

Dezzi Star: Um actually yes NORMALLY he does turn human after it. However there was a time in TUE where he didn't (only after he used it twice on Dark Dan) and another also in TUE where he only turns halfway (which is weird, it was probably an accident, but who cares. It was cool! XD)

DJ: Lol, hmm I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say you like … like pie! and Valerie! and pie! and this story! Oh and pie! XD

Melissa: Wow Mel, Skulker much. *eyes suddenly glow dark yellow* GET OUT OF HER SKULKER! *attacks*

WhatNooooI'mNotACONTRACTOR: Lol, that's something I've never heard before, but I like it. Short chapters are like popcorn, you need lots of them to make you full. I really do like it!

Desire Phantom: Thanks I will

Anyways, I promise you guys this won't end as a clique story. Trust me the ending has a twist…sort of.
