For the record, there is a mentioning of Dan Phantom, and yes he exists. I just want to let you readers know that Vlad isn't involved in the story yet, and Danny doesn't even know of the fruitloop yet. I made a reference to that in the first chapter… Go find it!

P.S. Danny is snarky in this chapter. Enough said! :D

"Um, gotta go to the bathroom! Watch Cujo for me?" Danny asked with hope in his eyes.

Tucker eyed the dog. "Uh, well-"

"Thanks!" he yelled and ran over to the boy's bathroom. He ran in and turned invisible in a stall. He then went ghost, knowing nobody could see him. He summoned his scythe and floated out of the restroom. Danny was still invisible as he flew around the mall, looking for the ghost.

He passed a storage place, but then dozens of peple ran out screaming. I wonder who that could be. He thought sarcastically. He flew into the small storage room and saw the Box Ghost flying around with pure bliss in his eyes.

"Ugh, Box Ghost, why are you here?" he grumbled as he became visible.

Boxy looked over and saw his friend, flying over and hugging him. "Hi there, halfa! I was flying around the Ghost Zone looking for you to wish a great Death Day! I fell outside of this large rectangular building and found all of these boxes! I haven't been to the Human Realm since my death!"

Danny rolled his eyes but smiled and let go of the hug. "Alright, but why are you scaring the crap out of people?"

"I'm not! I was just simply looking at all of these amazing boxes!" he exclaimed in joy. He was really happy to be back in the Human Realm… "By the way, I heard that you got a new scythe yesterday! And it looks amazing! Can you summon it in your human form?" He added the last part in a hushed whisper.

"Yep. It's a real gift," Danny twirled the weapon as if he was handling it for years. "Skulker made it for me."

Boxy's eyes widened. "That is so cool! I also heard that you can open rifts using it!"

"That may be true, but I only use it if I have to," the teen winked. "So, are you going back to the 'Zone, or what?"

The Box Ghost nodded. "Of course, but wow! That is so neat! Can I take a human box as something to remember this by?"

"Eh, why not?" Danny shrugged. "But please, don't cause so much havoc, and don't tell other ghosts about my scythe. I don't want them begging me to go to the Human Realm."

He nodded again while Danny opened a portal. Boxy flew through it, waving a goodbye.

The halfa smiled and waved back, closing the rift. He then flew out of the storage area, where he all of the people running around in a panic.

"Calm down, people!" he yelled, his eyes glowing more. The crowd looked up in fear of the halfa, causing him to roll his eyes. "Geez, he was a harmless ghost. All he wanted was to see some boxes."

Everyone still eyed his scythe, making him groan. His scythe disappeared, causing some people to gasp. "Oh no, my scythe is gone," he sarcastically stated. "The horror."

Suddenly, somebody blasted part of the wall, making a huge hole. Two hunters aimed their guns at Danny, one male and the other female. "Halt, spook!" the male yelled.

Danny raised an eyebrow and landed on the ground. He crossed his arms. "Halt, who uses 'halt' anymore?"

"Shut up!" the female spat. "Not put your hands in the air and don't move!"

The teen rolled his eyes but complied. The two hunters smirked and ran over to him, but before they could get their hands on Danny, he teleported behind them. "I never moved, technically speaking~!"

Blue Jumpsuit glared and growled. "Get him, Jack!"

He looked at the hunters with a curious expression on his face. "Before you blast me into bits, I would like to know your names. Who doesn't want to know the names of the humans that are about to end your after-life?"

Blue Jumpsuit snorted, but Orange Jumpsuit eagerly jumped up. "I'm Jack Fenton and this is my wife, Maddie! Now, prepare to be ripped apart molecule by molecule!"

"Okay, but before you do, would you like a souvenir?" before the Fenton's could reply, Danny made a small item made of ice. He tossed it to Maddie, who caught it.

She automatically noticed there were some words on the small ice. She read it confused. "What on Earth?"

"Maddie, why does it say, 'Later, Suckers!'?" asked the large man.

The huntress looked back up to see the spectre gone. "I knew we should have blasted him! He distracted us!" she growled and blasted his ice.

Unbeknowst to them, Danny had teleported back into the boy's bathroom and turned human. He walked out whistling a song vaguely sounding like 'Escape – (The Pina Colada Song)'.

He walked back over to his somewhat-friends and thanked them for watching Cujo.

"No problem, Danny. Hey, do you want us to call you Danny, Daniel, or Dan-" Sam was cut off by Danny sending her a death glare. Even Sam admitted it was frightening.

"If you ever call me 'Dan' ever again, I will personally promise you that is the last thing you will ever say," he growled, his voice taking on a small but barely noticeable echo.

Tucker yelped and hid behind Sam, but Cujo looked at Danny in sympathy. He knew what he had gone through. He was there when it happened. "Danny, chill out. They dodn't know."

The halfa looked over to his dog, then sighed. "Alright alright, I'm sorry. I just… have a bad history with that name. Please don't say it."

Sam huffed. "Fine, but how can it be that bad-"

Danny glared at her, but stopped. "Well," he bit his lip. "I'll tell you, but somewhere more private."

He motioned them to follow him, along with Cujo. They walked out of the mall and into the forest. They walked for a good ten minutes, then Danny decided it was private enough. "Alright, here's the deal."

Tucker huffed and puffed, and put his hands on his knees, bending over. He raised a finger as if to say 'hold on.'

The raven-haired teen ignored that, and Cujo came over to sit next to Danny. He continued. "Someone, I'd rather not mention who, was purely evil. He killed people for fun and would abuse his power. His name was Dan, and his eyes pretty much glowed red, as in rage." Alright, not the full truth, but they won't know. "I had come across him a year ago, when I had to get something for my guardian. Dan had looked at me in pure anger and hatred, and I had no idea why." He hesitated. "That man nearly killed me and Cujo at the time. He was throwing punches, and he even had a gun. Luckily, we escaped just as the cops arrived, and took him into custodity."

"Wow, that's harsh," Sam's eyes widened. "But why hadn't something like this been on the news? I pretty much watch it everyday."

"I was in another country, not the U.S." Technically, the 'Zone is another world, but whatever.

Sam's eyes widened even more. "Oh my gosh, I completely forgot to tell you! This jerk named Dash, he has blond hair, came over and started asking about your dog." She bit her lip, but continued. "He asked 'Who's dog is this? I remember this dog.' I told him it was a friend's. He then growled and kicked Cujo in the leg, making him bark out in pain. I yelled at him, 'What the heck was that for?!'

"Dash then smirked and said, 'This kid with black hair and bumped into me, and he had this mutt. So, I want revenge.' He hit the dog one more time then ran off, laughing. I'm so sorry for not telling you, it's just that there was this big explosion, I saw a kid with white hair and the local nut-jobs the Fentons, and everything was bananas! I'm really sorry!" she rambled.

Danny had a shocked expression on his face, but it quickly became anger. "What?! My dog was abused, and you forget to tell me?! What kind of friends farus diru al iu pri tia afero?! Cujo, kiel povis vi permesu ke idioto malbondezirantojn vi! Uf! Tio blonda Jock estas tiel tuj ricevas ĝin la venontan fojon mi vidas lin! Cujo, ĉu vi bonfartas? Ho mia Gosh mi bezonas rigardi vian kruron, eble Clockwork povas helpi, aŭ eble eĉ homan medic! Ne gravas, sed oni devas vidi kuraciston!" (*) Danny yelled in pure hatred.

He knelt down next to his dog and finally saw the wound. It's good that I'm good at this kind of thing… he thought. He started up his ice core as the temperature dropped about 20 degrees. His eyes glowed a brighter shade of blue. He put a hand on Cujo's leg as ectoplasm started bleeding again. Danny then started making an ice cast that would stop the bleeding. Then, in Esperanto, asked, "Cujo, mi scias ke vi ne povis iradis tian lezo . Verŝajne rompita osto! Ĉu vi flosi tie, kaj se vi faris, kiel vi faris tion sen tiuj homoj vidante vin?" Cujo, I know you couldn't have walked on this kind of injury. It's probably a broken bone! Did you float here, and if you did, how did you do it without these humans seeing you?

Cujo hesitated. "I turned invisible, so you would have seen me, but the other humans wouldn't have noticed."

Danny winced and nodded. He got up and looked back at the duo of full-humans staring at him wide eyed, and terrified. He looked at the ground and rubbed the back of his neck. "I guess I have a lot of explaining to do, huh?"

(*) DANNY'S RANT (*) What?! My dog was abused, and you forget to tell me?! What kind of friends would not tell anyone about such a thing?! Cujo, how could you let that idiot hurt you! Ugh! That blonde Jock is so going toreceive it the next time I see him! Cujo, are you okay? Oh my Gosh I need to look at your leg, perhaps Clockwork can help, or perhaps even a human medic! It does not matter, but it is necessary to see a doctor!

Thanks for reading! Reviews help! :D
