Chapter 30
Figured, since I mentioned a journal in that last chapter, that y'all would like to see some of the entries that Alex read. There's only going to be a few. All that I write will be important stuff that happened in Alex and Summer's lives that somewhat pertains to how this stuff happened. So, enjoy!
Oh, and to a guest reviewer who just started this story: Unknown4life: Thanks, I like that too, and of course, anybody who doesn't know who Doctor Who is absolutely insane and encouraged to go watch the show lol

Today, I was blessed with two sweet babies. Alex Rose and David Ryan. Derrick is just overjoyed with his daughter. Both have the beautiful blue eyes that singles out every Fenton and Wolf kid from the rest of the families. My brother knows, and his wife said that they'd make the effort for their two littles ones to come visit us. I'm not sure how much I believe such a thing. Both are rather forgetful, and my brother is still obsessed with ghost. I've decided to study more paranormal species, such as vampires and werewolves. I wouldn't tell Derrick this, since his main focus is finding a cure for cancer. Don't get me wrong, getting rid of cancer would really make the American's day, but vampires and werewolves give more of a threat than anything. Oh, little Alex has yet to cry, which the doctor said is not usually a good sign. He said that all her vital signs are good, and she's more aware than most babies. She actually glared at him when he went to pick her up. It was really cute actually. She smiled without teeth up at Derrick when he went to retrieve her from the nursery. My little Alex, worlds most aware baby.

We went to see Grandmammy today. The old bat said she saw Alex and David's future. She said Alex was destined to a half dragon life, and David was destined to a phionex. Not sure what she means, but Derrick says it's just a bunch of bull. I can't say I agree. Grandmammy was always right when I was growing up, why would she be wrong now? The kids turned one today, on the other hand, and Alex has already begun to roam around, walking straight and tall. David is still stuck crawling, he just can't seem to figure out how his sister is walking. She actually said her first world about two months ago. "Mommy!" Was what she called. "Daddy!" David had uttered right after her. Both are little miracles. Alex just roared at me, her two grown in teeth looked sharp. David cawed, CAWED! Where in the world did he learn that?

Somthing alarming has happened. One of little Alex's arms was scaly and had tiny little claws at the end. David was actually burping up fire! Both the little three year olds giggle as we freak out. They seem to like this new game. Derrick actually insisted that we went back to see Grandmammy. So we all piled in the car and left. Grandmammy had smiled and said it was beginning. But to ease our minds, she changed Alex back to normal and placed a spell that would delay the change to them both until they both turned sixteen. But she warned of the great tragedy that would befall them when an unforeseen force happens. Alex had paid attention to every word that Grandmammy had uttered and her eyes had gotten bigger with every sentence. "We split up," was Derrick's response. And right before the light left Grandmammy's eyes, she'd just smiled and uttered a single word. "Pain." We never saw the poor soul again, and there wasn't a funeral held in the crazy women's honor.

He did it, Derrick left, took David with him, and now it's just me and Alex. For the first few hours, Alex had cried, and wailed, she knew what was going on. But now was my chance to hold her and tell her how much I love her. When's she's older, I'll just tell her he walked out, try to forget the tragedy Grandmammy had talked about. It won't be long I'm sure, until we prove Grandmammy wrong and all our fears are for nothing.

Alex has made a great new friend in the first grade. Her and Riley are so excited to play with this Erik kid. She often says that Erik had to be the nicest kid in the whole school, and he isn't very well liked. My Alex is growing bigger and kinder every day. Her eyes are slowly turning the same grey-blue as her dad and her hair is blond, just like mine. No word of where Derrick and David had taken off too, or how my precious David was doing.

Third grade has kicked off with a start. Alex, Riley and Erik have made a new friend this year. Some boy named Dex. A geeky kid with a bad past, also not very well liked. Alex welcomed him with open arms and he became part of their rag tag bunch. She's so happy now, and doesn't remember hardly anything of what happened when she was three. When she ask, I just tell her that I left her father when she was about six months, and that David was left with him. She doesn't normally ask more questions, she doesn't seem interested in her past as much.

Alex came home from school today with tears running down her face. When I asked her what's wrong, she said Riley's mom, Rachel, was sick, and there's a good chance she won't make it. She said it was breast cancer. Oh, poor Rachel, my life-long friend. Now Alex and Riley are being put through losing an important person in both their lives. I'm going to console my baby girl now, she needs it.

I pulled the children out of school to take them to the hospital. Just Riley and Alex, of course, because Erik and Dex wouldn't understand and their parents wouldn't like that I pulled them out. Rachel died as they talked to her, and the girls just sat there, stunned. I don't think it hit either of them as hard because they didn't want to believe it. Being in fourth grade, I can understand that they don't want to accept it. I'm allowing Alex to take a week off of school to cope with her second mother's death.

When we were done in the lab today, a weird thing happened. Alex turned into a ghost. I don't think it was the effect of the ecto-gun shot in her face, I think it was something Derrick did to David, though I'm not sure. Her eyes are red, and her hair had turned silver with red highlights. Twelve years old and she's half ghost. I wonder if this will effect Grandmammy's perdiction.

Alex got her first contact from Derrick, not a very nice one either. He said he was turning evil, that darkness was consuming him. I'm not sure what kind of an act he's playing, but he's got his daughter convinced. Riley also moved away, due to her crushed father, and I think Alex thinks it's her fault. Well, Riley is sad too, they were suppose to have all their classes at middle school together and they were looking forward to a great year. Dex and Erik are trying to cheer up Alex, and it seems to be working. They've been around the house less and less and out roaming the city for trouble. She's such a trouper, my little Alex

Derrick came and attacked the town. He turned out to be half ghost too. He took up the name Death, and David took up the name Evil. Alex has come to be known as Echo, the town's hero. In a desperate attempt to get him out of our town, she killed her own father. But I don't think he's dead, just completely ghost now, which worries me more. But now, we need to get out of here. I've located my brother, he's in some little town named Amity Park, but maybe I'll try to find some other family before I flock to that tiny town.

We did finally move here, and I even got to talk to my brother a bit. He kept yelling something about ripping the new ghost boy molecule by molecule. Turns out Alex already met the ghost boy. This Danny Phantom character sounds interesting. Alex sounds ready to go to this high school they got here. The irony of the name, Casper High isn't lost on her. She joked about it the entire ride to the ghost infested town. She was sad to leave Dex and Erik behind, but was excited to make new friends. Right before another incident with her father began, she told me she met Danny and Jazz Fenton, her cousins, though I have yet to tell her so. She also made friends with Sam and Tucker, two of Danny's friends.

I went to talk to Derrick, he needs to stop what he's doing. He's hurting innocent kids, and my daughter is completely convinced he's evil. It turns out he kept up with our daughter, but he was trying to ward off Grandmammy's perdiction. Erik was present during this presentation, and boy was he confused. Derrick led me down to the basement where a bunch of teens lingered under the glow of one laturn. Riley was down here as well, shaken and covered in plaster...
That's where it ends, you can guess the ending of course. I hope y'all enjoyed it, this was getting hard for me to write, seeing as I had another story for Alex pounding at my head. I can't really put that up until I get the story for when she turned 16...but it works right? So I'm starting to write that, might have a few chapters done, but I'm proud of myself for finishing this story.
