xLa Reyna Phantasmax, here! Yeah! Almost done! Hellbreaker, decent!? Decent!? Okay, so it was rather lax, but I think it was better than decent. I am getting better at this. Always takes me a little time to warm up to a show. I love it just as much as I love most of my animes, but I still require a little bit of time to find my step.

Present...

Danny headed down the street to Sam's home, his mouth opening and closing as if he were talking as he rehearsed what he wanted to say to her. There was so much to say to her and he was so unsure of how he would say it to her. Could he do that with Dan there? The ghost had tried to encourage him, but would he be able to do that with the male that seemed just as smitten with Sam as he was in love with her?

"Dan! Dan!" He looked up at that moment as screams of terror filled the air. He rushed into the air, his ghost form appearing as he phased through the wall to find Sam on her bed, Dan laying there smiling at her as part of his body was missing. What the hell? She looked up at him, her amethyst eyes torn between the pleasure of seeing him and the pain of losing the male on her bed. Dan looked to him too now, but his expression was one of pain mixed with something that Danny could not comprehend. It looked like thankfulness, but Danny was shocked to see it. Was it because he came or was it for something else?

"Sam," he said as he turned from Danny. He looked at the woman sitting over him, his green eyes fading into blue. "I need you to step out of the room for a moment. I need to speak with the brat." Sam looked at him before understanding. She would have argued, but she knew she would lose like she did with Danny. They made thier decisions and there was no way to make them change their mind. She was reminded of the time he went to fight Pariah. She had wanted to fight him on that, but Danny was a hero and there was nothing she could to change that. Before walking away she placed a kiss on his lips.

"You know that I love you and that will never change," she whispered as her voice broke. She was not ashamed of loving him and would never hid that. Her love for him was not as great as the one she felt for Danny. He whispered that he loved her before she left the room, the door clicking softly behind her. He turned to Danny now, his full blue eyes gazing into the green of Danny's Phantom eyes.

"Change back," he commanded as another part of his body began to disappear. Danny obeyed though he didn't know why he did. Maybe it was because of Sam or maybe he felt that the male before him deserved that respect. "I need you to understand stuff we never did as teens. You realized that Sam wanted to go to that dance when we were younger, but she wanted to go with us. She wanted you to take her, but she settled for Tucker because she is a girl and all girl's want to dress up no matter how much of a tomboy or in Sam's case, how much of a Goth they are. Danny, Sam loves you with all her heart and you almost let her die."

"What?" Dan nodded. "She would never-"

"She wouldn't cut or harm herself intentionally but she is just a human after all and you have those feelings that I have for the most part lost. Brat, she is a girl and they have far more emotion in them then we do in our little finger. They weep at the smallest things and grow just as angry for the same reason. Miss a birthday and it is like you just killed a fucking cat!" Sighing Dan turned to the door where he knew Sam was waiting. She would eavesdrop on a conversation like this. "Woman! Get the fuck away from the door! This is not for you to hear!" Cursing was heard before she shuffled off. He knew she was hurting so he continued so he would have time to give her the proper goodbye that he knew she deserved. "What I am trying to say and what I figure you yourself should have figured out already is that Sam loves you so much she would fade away just so you could be happy."

"What?"

"Yeah, while you were gone she starved herself almost into nonexistence I know that sounds weird, but she did it. I just made it hours before her death." He closed his eyes, his mind going back to those visions of her death in this time and they intermingled with the ones from his time. Tears cascaded down his pale cheeks as he stopped fighting that time that he had not been able to save her. "I wasn't able to stop her death in my timeline and you can't imagine all the beating up I did to myself. I could see her in my dreams, her amethyst eyes looking at me with such fear."

"Da-" The ghost silenced him with a look.

"Brat, I want you to understand something you should never go through The lost of loved ones is hard, but not having someone who loved you to fall back on. Sam was the person who could have saved us in the past. She would have stopped me from removing my human half and I would never have turned bad. I would have defeated Vlad when I was ready. I would have saved the world and everything would be okay. Don't get me wrong," he said as he looked deep into the blue eyes that belonged to his human half. "I love my family, but it was the fact that Sam was gone that killed me. It was the reason I made that bad decision. I thought that if I removed that factor that it would all stop. I figured that being free of that persona I would be normal. That is not true and now I am a murder of thousands, but that girl out there... She knows me. She knows you. She forgives me for that and doesn't shudder at my approach like most humans do. She sees that I am who I am and as long as I regret that I did it then I am redeemed. I knew that you would figure your feelings for her and come here. I was hoping that I would be gone by that time, but this is just as good as any. She will need you and you have figured it out that you love her. That is what I wanted. I knew that I could never stay here forever." Another part of his body disappeared. "Thanks." He looked at the door and hollering out for Sam found her there in seconds, her eyes red from tears that she had washed away so that Dan wouldn't see the sadness, the weakness that she felt.
