Obviously, some of you did not understand my warning. I shall list a few examples of good and bad reviews that way you'll know what I'm talking about.

Yes, I am giving you a second chance, this is your last one, I'm rather liking the direction this story is taken and if you feel the same, think before you review.

Well you caught attention!

This is an example of a bad review. Obviously I have caught their attention, yet they neglect to explain why, how, or what did. The idea of a review is to REVIEW something, to look it over and explain certain points of it. Is that really hard to comprehend? Not to mention their grammar is atrocious. This person is either about as bright as a black hole or really doesn't want this story finished. Overall this review earns one star.

Some of you may be wondering why I am being so harsh to people reading my story. Well, a lot of them are complete idiots, end of story.

First of all, you don't criticize your own work. This is a bit different, but there's no need to say your previous work isn't good because it is.

Second of all, I like your plot. I like it very very much. And it's making me very anxious for the next chapter.

Third of all, it's rather weird how Danny's own parents don't greet him in the morning. At least that's what I think.

Keep up the good work! :D

This is an example of an Ok review, it does bring to mention something that isn't based in the story, but only briefly touches on it. The grammar is simply amazing and this person definitely has a good deal of intelligence. This review goes into detail on certain aspects that are good and also brings up some points of confusion or dismay. Overall this review earns 4 stars.


"Danny, are you feeling alright?" Maddie asked as Danny walked back into the living room, concern plastered on her face. She smiled in relief when Danny nodded, taking a seat on the couch as far away from Vlad as he could humanly get.

Vlad smirked at Danny's actions. "Daniel is just a little shaken from the accident, but I'm sure he will be right as rain in no time."

"Right you are V-Man! Nothing can keep a Fenton down for long!" Jack gloated, slapping a firm hand on Danny's shoulder, jolting the teen's still beaten body in a painful manner. Danny barely withheld a wince.

"So Vlad, how did you find me?" Danny asked, trying to dig Vlad into a hole. If he couldn't beat the man physically, at least he could try mentally.

"Well Daniel, I had just finished a conference with several new investors in my company. My limo passed the remains of an old torn down building and I saw you laying on the ground, part of the roof having collapsed on you as you were walking by, it was just dreadful," Vlad said, faux concern lacing his words like venom. His face held a look of concern, but his deep azure eyes held his smirk.

Maddie gasped and quickly hugged Vlad. "It must have been terrible for you to have found him like that, I know you think of him almost like a son," she cooed, patting Vlad gently on the back.

Danny growled under his breath as he watched Vlad hug Maddie back, a smug look on the man's face. "I'm going to go call Sam and Tucker and let them know I'm okay," he said, clenching his teeth as Vlad slowly released his mother.

"Alright Danny, but be careful if you go out!" His mother called as he rushed up the stairs, barely containing his anger.

"Yes, Daniel, be careful; I don't want to find you like that again!" Vlad added, his voice dripping in sarcasm only Danny could hear.

Slamming his door shut he fell to his bed, yanking off his shirt. When he was a young teen, he had a strong dislike of his body as many young boys do, but as he grew, now nearly 18, he began to grow into himself, now his chest was hard and solid, well toned from years of fighting ghosts and saving lives. This development also lead to him disliking shirts, whenever he could get away with it, he refused to wear one entirely.

"Hey Sam, I'm up, wanna get Tucker and head over here? I need to get the hell out of here," he said when Sam answered her cell, giving a sigh of relief when she said they would be over immediately.

xXx

"…So he just showed up, out of the blue, and started a fight?" Tucker asked as they walked down the street, heading to their favorite coffee shop.

"Well, no, not really. He just showed up and gave his 'Oh I'm so great and evil' speech. I started the fight," Danny confessed. He had thrown the first punch, but only because Vlad provoked him. "But only because he was provoking me!" He quickly defended, frowning when Sam began to laugh.

She wiped a tear from the corner of her eye and noticed that the two boys were staring at her as if she grew a second head. "Isn't it obvious? Vlad was trying to start that fight. Why else would he just show up like that?"

"That bastard!" Danny yelled, his eyes flashing bright green as his anger got away from him. "What is his problem!? I hate him!" He roared, power exploding from his body, knocking Sam and Tucker back a few steps.

"Well Daniel, is that anyway to talk about someone who has done so much for you? And offers you even more?" Vlad laughed, materializing through the wall beside them, still in human form.

Danny growled; fists clenching at his sides so tight his fingernails left crescent cuts in his palms. "What do you want?" He spat, barely keeping himself from punching in that smug face.

"Do I need an excuse to check on my best friend's only son?" The older man smirked, taking a step back into the alleyway and shifting into Plasmius. "I mean honestly Daniel, do you even think you're a match for me right now? You could hardly handle yourself last time, in perfect health no less."

"Get out of here," Danny growled at Sam and Tucker, running at Vlad before they could protest. His arm reared back in a punch, going ghost moments before he let it fly, right for the smirking man's face.

Vlad easily dodged the punch, smirk still plastered on his face. He swiftly moved from side to side, occasionally ducking, each and every one of Danny's punches missing. The older man's movements were elegant and fluid, almost as if he were dancing. "Honestly boy, try a little harder."

"AHHHH!" Danny yelled, anger exploding inside him. "I HATE YOU!" He screamed, his fist finally meeting it's target and slamming into Vlad's jaw sending him flying backwards. He slammed into the side of a dumpster, twisting and warping the metal around him like a cage.

"That's it, get angry. How much do you hate me, Daniel?" Vlad asked, leering at the angry halfa as he pried himself free from the metal prison. This time as Danny's fist rushed toward him, he caught it mid-air, surprising the teen. "What makes you hate me?" He asked, crushing and twisting the teen's fist until Danny fell to his knees. "Are you jealous of my power? Do you yearn for this, Daniel? Do you crave it? Or maybe, just maybe, you really don't hate me that much at all."

Danny grabbed at his arm, face contorting in pain as his hand was crushed in Vlad's. He fought through the pain the best he could, trying to regain his anger, his hatred. As Vlad leaned in close to him and whispered something small, so quiet he could barely make it out himself, his eyes snapped open. Thrusting his arm up, he managed to get free. Before the older man had time to react, he let loose a massive ghostly wail, forcing all of his hate, his anger, his frustration, and his…confusion into that one attack.

Vlad immediately threw up his arms and braced his legs. As the wail hit him, he slid backwards down the alley, heels digging into the soiled gravel. He held tight, arms aching only slightly under the strain. When the attack finally ended, he lowered his arms, standing up high and straight. "Not bad Daniel, not bad at all. But I can do so much better."

"Wha-?" Was all Danny managed to get out before he watched in horror as Vlad let out a massive ghostly wail, the pink energy slamming into him with such might it blasted huge tears in his jumpsuit before slamming him into a very solid brick wall. As the energy subsisted, he slid down the wall, the rough brick ripping away at his jumpsuit and exposed back, leaving a bloody smear in his wake.

"H-how did you get that power? You've n-never had it before," he choked, looking up at the smug man. Stumbling slightly as he forced himself to his feet, he barely put up a fight as Vlad lifted him off his feet by his neck.

"Oh there are lots of things you don't know about me, Daniel. Perhaps you would like to find out a few more," Vlad smirked, leaning in until he was just a breath away from Danny. Suddenly, he shoved the teen against the wall he had just slid down, forcing him up until Vlad's mouth was hovering just over a gash in his suit. And then the older man sunk those fangs deep into his flesh, making him scream in pain. Pulling away, he dropped Danny, blood red eyes dancing with laughter and arrogance, lips stained to match. "Now you have another reason to hate me. Oh, and you won't turn into a vampire by nightfall, Daniel, in case you were wondering." And with that, off he flew.

Danny stumbled to his feet, his body felt like it was on fire. It took him three tries before he was finally able to make it into the air to fly home, hoping that Sam and Tucker were there waiting.

xXx

"He…he whispered in my ear 'Maybe you want to be just like me' and I snapped," Danny said as he lay across his bed, Sam cleaning the deep scrapes across his back. "And guys, he has ghostly wail too and it's so much stronger than mine. It slammed me into a wall ten feet from the ground, and then he grabbed me by my throat and then…he…bit me…"

"Whoa! He bit you!?" Tucker gapped, his jaw going slack when Danny rolled over to reveal the vicious looking bite mark on his chest, just to the right of his left nipple. "Why?"

"He said 'Now you have another reason to hate me', whatever that's supposed to mean," Danny sighed and let out a sharp hiss as Sam poured rubbing alcohol on the bite, cleaning out the wound. "Like I need another reason."


Longer chapter. The bite was COMPLETELY NON-SEXUAL.
