"Let me go! Frostbite I have to find her!", screamed a struggling Danny. Frostbite held him down and tried to calm the weak ghost boy down.

"Danny, stop moving around like this! I am trying to see if you are alright! That procedure was to take days! It was only an hour!", Frostbite shouted to the teenager. Danny continued to struggle to get free to try to find Danielle.

Danny finally gave into the frost beast and stop struggling. He felt completely drained but his mind kept wandering towards why Dani didn't recognize him when she woke up.

"Frostbite, why didn't she know who I was? You didn't say anything about her losing her memory."

"That I do not know, Danny. I was hoping things would just go smoothly right when she woke up. I am surprised you suffered no damage."

Danny looked at himself and saw no change. He was still in his ghost form and everything seemed to be intact. He was about to take a deep breath when he felt a stab of pain in his chest. He cried out and curled in on himself to try to get rid of the pain. The ghost beast gasped and tried to ask Danny what was wrong but Danny couldn't hear him over his own screams of pain.

"Danny!", screamed Tucker and Sam. Clockwork watched without showing emotion. Sam gasped as she watched her friend convulse in pain and her standing there not being able to help.

"What's wrong with?", Tucker shouted at Clockwork.

"I believe Danny is feeling the effects of having his soul ripped apart. You humans don't seem to realize or comprehend just how real your own souls are.", Clockwork said with a grim tone.

Same rounded on him and yelled, "What does that even mean?! What is going on with Danny?"

"As I said he is feeling the effects of having his soul ripped apart. The pain from what I have gathered through history is best described as if you are being burned inside out. Everything is heated up and it feels as if your very self is melting away in a slow and painful process. As you heard before the process was to take 3 days when it only took an hour. In the next 3 days Danny is going to weaken and the pain is to get worse."

The two friend's jaws dropped and were about to speak when Clockwork raised his hand to silence them.

"If Danny does not find Danielle and reach the part of his soul which she has taken to bring her back to life then Danny wil in fact become a ghost. He will no longer be alive in your human world. In other words: Danny will die."

"NO!", Sam screamed while Tucker hugged her. Sam's legs gave out and she cried. Tucker held her close and said nothing while silent tears started to fall. Clockwork turned away from the two teens and stared off into nothing.

-Danielle-

Flying through the ghost zone the young ghost girl went in search for her creator. Her mind wandered a bit toward the ghost boy who screamed her name.

"Weird how he knew who I was. Not to mention how we have the same name. Must be a clone that got away from Dad. Obviously one he didn't care much for or else he would have tracked it down.", she mumbled to herself.

Then a sudden burst of pain shot through her chest. She gasped and lost control of her flight and zoomed down onto one of the floating islands. She screamed and curled up against the ground and the pain seemed to have grown. Images flashed through her mind of the boy Danny who she saw in the lab. She saw him curled up in pain just like her, screaming and thrashing around in pain.

She gasped when it suddenly stopped. Her head felt heavy and she looked around her surroundings without moving. She took a deep breath and got on her hands and knees.

"What was that?", she said in a huff. She sat in an upright position and held her head in her hand.

"Whatever that was the guy at the lab seems to be having the same problem."

"Aragahh!", Danny screamed. He didn't know anything could feel this painful. Frostbite frowned and watched as Danny seem to struggle with himself. Then just Danny stopped screaming and gave quick pants. He was shaking and grinding his teeth together. Frostbite watched as beads of sweat formed on Danny's forehead as if he ran a mile.

"Danny? Are you alright?"

"I'm...fine.", Danny gasped trying to control his breathing. Frostbite helped the boy up from the floor and helped him stand. Danny felt as if his legs were jello and had to place his hand against the wall to keep him steady.

"What was that?", the ghost boy asked once he got his senses back.

"I believe you are feeling the affects to the separation process. I told you it was dangerous! Danny if you do not convince Danielle she is your clone and that you both now share a soul it could be disastrous to you! You have to reach the part of you that's within her now. If you do not you will die. You must by all means try to get through to your clone."

"She isn't just my-"

"Worry about titles later, Danny! I understand how you see her but to I she will always be your clone! Now go! You must do this within the time frame of 3 days. The separation was to take that long so I am sure of it to be 3 days until you are no longer human! I cannot undertand why the soul seperation only took an hour when it was to be 3 days but we can answer that later. Now go! Quickly!", Frostbite urged. His ears were flat on his head and Danny could tell the ghost beast was scared his Danny's safety. Danny nodded in agreement and hugged Frostbite.

"Thank you for your help. I'll find Danielle and make all this right again.", Danny jumped into the air and zoomed out. Frostbite watched until he vanished from sight.

"...Danny how I wish I did not agree to help you. You dying will forever be on my conscious and will always be my fault."The ghost beast turned away and feeling as if he aged centuries, walked out to his village to break the sad news about the ghost boy they all loved.

Flying through the ghost zone, Danny kept a hand to his chest and braced himself for any sudden impact of pain. What he didn't see coming was a blast of green hitting him. He hurtled towards an island and slammed to the ground. He gasped and tried to sit up but found it painful to move.

"Not you again!", screamed a voice. Danny blinked but his vision was blurred and infront of him he saw a blurry white and black image.

"I better take you to my dad. I'm sure he will take you back. Clones should stay close to their creators and not run away.", the voice said. Danny blinked again and saw that it was Danielle but before he could speak or say a word he fainted for the 2nd time that day.

:D Hi...Long time no update.
