I apologize for the wait, I had a lot going on. Fear not! Everything is catching up now. I'm posting three chapters today!

Enjoy~


Studying flew by and I took the test like fighting Box Ghost; an easy battle. So, Monday wasn't a worried for me to handle. I got to find out my grades by dinner time and I was so happy to pass it all with a hundred. Vlad ordered out because he was craving Italian pasta – something I couldn't even pronounce – and some high rich chocolate cake with raspberries on top. Damn, he was craving last night and he was glad to order them because it was perfect timing to celebrate my tests' scores.

Today, I wasn't too sure if Paranormal World class would let me back in because I stood up for my own kind. It wasn't easy to handle the class from the beginning, but when it came to ghost subject. It's the subject that I cannot stand being ignorant towards or let people be stupid about it. Ghosts are real, whether they're in denial or in danger, it's there for eternity.

Slowly, I walked right into classroom and my head down to avoid any idea what they may be doing.

A slow, but loud applaud was going off in this room and I was confused. My head picked up and saw everyone smiling at me. Even the professor here and she walked up to me as she smiled.

"Mr. Fenton, you were right about ghosts. I failed in that area, but that was no excuses to check into your hometown. After you had left, your classmate has done their research for the rest of the hours that day. They worked together and I saw so many progresses here." She gestured towards everyone, "They would like to hear more of your views and facts on ghosts since barely scientists could share what they give."

I was shocked. Speechless to expect any of this fromher! Never have I in my life hear anyone to tell me I am right about ghosts or nearly close. I mean, I know I'm right about my studying, but with anything outside of the topic is impossible to get people to agree with me at all. Everyone smiled and waited to hear something. One of them raised their hand and I nodded to that person.

"Is Phantom a true hero or vile villain?" He asked.

I blinked, "According to what he told me, he only protects people. He was framed, mind-controlled, manipulated, and so much more of confusion towards his unusual behaviour. Like for example, a criminal knew how to control a ghost by using the red crystal ball that was passed down for generations. If you see dark red eyes, you will know they are controlled. If it was bright red like red roses, that's themselves. In a way, at my home, he's considered a hero more than a villain."

Another raised their hand, "You say ghosts have power, what they have exactly?"

"Well," I rubbed the back of my neck, "They have varies of powers. However, all ghosts have the basic and they are flight, invisibility, intangibility, ecto energy, super hearing, super strength, super speed, and super smell."

They were whispering how much basic power these ghosts have and they don't have a single clue about them. They were so fascinated.

One raised her hand, "What's ecto energy?" Her head tilted.

Right, I forgot that barely anyone knows a thing! I was so surprised that my city home doesn't educate the country, but who could have shared information? It had amazed me how interested my classmate is.

"Ecto energy is what ghost is almost made of fourty percent. The sixty percentages is ectoplasm. Ectoplasm is a rare source of spiritual energy to be an intelligent being. In a way, ecto energy never runs out or burns out on them. It's based on their obsession," Oh, how much I wanted to show them right in my hand to give them an idea, "But there's different level of them. Green is basic, unstable, yet, powerful. The next level is red, a bit more stable, stronger than green, and easily to dissolve items with one hit, but depends on the ghosts' purposes. It doesn't kill or harm human, just objects. This color is a rare one, but black. Black tells you more about them. One, it is a sign they have been around for more than ten centuries. Two," My peace fingers are up, "They are extremely powerful. Three, they can use that into almost anything."

They murmured about this with such discovery. Some of them took notes, but they were so eager about the subject here. One raised their hand and I nodded directed to that classmate.

"Last time, you said the reason of ghosts' existence is their obsession? How does that exactly work?"

I chuckled, "It's complicated, but it's how it is according to Phantom has told me. When it comes to a ghost, you nearly let it become a part of you every single second of it. It's a deep connection on obsession. It's like us, we do what we do every day. However, let's say…being a hunter. A hunter would be obsess with all access to hunting weapon, varieties to hunt for the best, skills to be extremely useful to hunt, to measure how much time to hunt, and what to do when hunt is succeeded. A hunt where the mind is always at and goes for the thrill to their adventure. Location is never their limits. They do not ever give up, never minding the complication, and it keeps them going every single day. They use all methods that are available to them instantly and they view their hunted to be their personalized trophy. Their entire home is filled with their possessive hunted creature, no matter what it could be. You would immediately think they're sick and they see it normal." I explained, "For a ghost, it would be in their power to have that kind of a mind, mentality, emotionally, and physically in the best of power. They can neutralized their prey or come up with traps within their power."

They were shocked more than they had expected to learn. The professor didn't even know any of this before and she absorbed into this so much as others were.

"Do ghosts have a place of their own? You don't seem to make it sound like they have a place to haunt nor they do that, so where do they come from?" One of them spoke up for themselves.

I smiled, "They have a place, another world called the Ghost Zone. It's their home where their original source of main energy comes from."

One rose their hand, "So, how is their Ghost Zone runs? Is it like our country or something?"

I rubbed my chin, "Not really. It's like…the universe, but everything is floating. It's a very mysterious, hence the name Zone. The place is filled with billions of trillions of territories,sections abd sectors. I mean, nothing is really what you had to imagine. They run by following the balance. It's complicated, but they do have…well, used to have a king. Phantom took him down when he nearly ruled over again and no one likes the king." Everyone was excited to learn about this one because it was such a big change for everyone, "So, Phantom is the next in line for throne because the Ghost Zone's policy is when you defeat the king, you become the next king or queen."

Another student perked up their hand, "You told us the basic powers, are you saying that all ghosts have different powers for something else?"

I nodded, "Yes. Each ghost to their own obsession, their core is unique. Their core is sort of like a heart, only it represents who they are and their power. Phantom is a rare one and he has Cryokinesis core. That core is filled with ice, but it helps him to locate ghosts by sensing them. One of his allies has a Pyrokinesis core of fire. That ghost can sense anything fire related," Speaking of…why didn't Vlad sense that? Then again, he's a couple miles away, it'd make sense, "There's several kinds of core to beyond your imagination. A weaponry core,Sound core, Plantae core, Dormant Core, and Time core. Although, a Time Core is the top and most rare core to ever see. I've never seen him before in my life and only certain ghosts know where he is or keeps in touch with. Every core is unique to their own and how they are like in their personality wise. You can either get on one of their good or bad side without even knowing that. Some ghosts can manipulate you and some don't have the bright mind."

I hadn't talked so much like this before in my entire life! It's fun to talk about something; I know about ghosts more than anyone else is in the world without exposing my secret to the world. Everyone was absorbed into this today and much fascinated about anything else. I told them about some powers example and how some ghosts are like a big family when danger comes. I told them about the day where King Pariah exposed the ghosts into my home town and how ghosts reacted that time. How people were seeing the reality before their eyes. I never thought to live the day without fearing anyone to judge me for once. The professor was more curious as well as anyone could be. She encouraged me to talk about it for the entire class time and led this to allow me pass this class automatically.

It felt nice for a change. This made ghosts into an appreciation today and less ignorant for the world. I knew what I was planning.

"If you ever go to where ghosts usually are, don't panic because you're giving them a reaction they're looking for. If you see Phantom, stay out of the way and be prepared because he might end up damage some property, but not bad as it was seven years ago. However, ghosts aren't your entertainment." I explained, "Now, thanks to you guys, I'm going to write a book about them and explain about some ghosts I know."

Everyone was eager to get the book and I wasn't too sure if it's that big of a deal. At least, I got a start of my career and an idea. The woman came up to me and handed me something. I accepted it and read it as my eyes could almost popped out.

"M-my-my Master's degrees completion?" I gasped.

She nodded, "Yes. I had spoken to the rest of your professors here and we felt that you had done successfully well in your courses with top grades. We have seen and amazed to see beyond on the projects, essays, and beyond to what you have done. Your training here has met all the qualification that most people would need a year or two, but you handled everything so well. With heavily criticism you had received with English, you handled it well and others would have felt upset." She smiled, "We all wrote a recommended letter, each of us that had led to twenty-five of recommendation letters. We sent them to the President of our university and he permitted to graduate you early and complete degree you desired." She let me hold my degree and diploma all at once.

I stammered and hadn't expected this to happen so soon. If I had known using my sister's method would have led me to success, being a brave student, and hard worker, I would have done this long ago. Somehow, I wouldn't have realized that until after this class.

"Thank you…I…" I hugged her.

Everyone awed, but I couldn't help it. She hugged me back and it was so much appreciation to give her. If it wasn't for her horrible myths on ghosts and the rest she had taught, it'd be difficult to stomach ignorant ideas.

"Mr. Fenton, congratulations for graduating today. I wish you well for your future." She smiled, as I pulled apart from her.

I nodded and rushed out to thanks the rest of my professors. All these adults taught the best they could and I wanted to thank them the most. I spent all day to hug them, thank them, and told them that if they need me to represent for something or to use me an example for their class. They were happy to hear that the most and looked forward to see me next time, if there's a chance.

With such of a happy day, I was free. To live my life finally and I was looking forward to what I had planned. I found the bathroom at the school, altered to Phantom and flew over two hundred mile per hour to Vlad's house immediately. The wind whipped me to the direction with the extreme happiness inside of me. The happiness was ready to burst in so many ways, I don't know how else to express them.

I landed into his living room and hugged him immediately. He almost went intangible on me, but he knew it was me after glancing up to me. I hugged him in midair happily and he hugged me back anyway.

"Wh-what did I miss, Daniel?" He asked.

I grinned ear to ear, "I graduated today with my complete Master's degree. Vlad, I'm deciding to write a book and take on a chance." I told him.

His sapphire eyes widened, "You graduated? Why didn't you tell me? I would have come to your-"

My head shook, "I didn't even know either. All of my professors wrote recommendation letters and gave it to the president of the university. He stated that I am now a graduate student with a completed degree." I laughed happily as I could be.

Vlad smiled along and understood this was the best day, but he wasn't feeling so well because of the flight. I set us back down and I went back to Fenton. He shivered when he felt my core's rings. I don't think I could have celebrated this anytime sooner with anyone and I was sort of glad Vlad was here. Honestly, without Vlad, I'd be lost and confused with everything I had to deal with on my own. I still didn't understand what had happened that night that led us to the night where we had conceived our daughter. He doesn't remember…but he needed to know before autumn comes or Christmas around the corner.
