Chapter 26

At first there was absolute darkness, nothing could be seen, not even the hands he was trying wave in front of his face. Strangely there was nothing there, no hands, no body, nothing. It was as though he was a floating spirit in the darkness. He tried anything to get his bearings sight, smell, sound even taste. But nothing would work. He felt absolutely nothing.

The darkness unnerved Danny, at least in the ghost zone green ectoplasm would light the world ever so slightly but in Harry's mind for some reason there was complete darkness.

Suddenly there was a flash of green light blinding Danny. The light projected on a screen seemingly in front of Danny. He shielded his face with his arms, seemingly just appearing. A loud pitched scream blasted from all around him. Danny covered his ears trying to block the loud scream.

The scream continued for a moment before it stopped abruptly. Danny cautiously took his hands away from his ears noticing that he now had a body.

He looked around trying to see where he was. The screen that started with bright green light now flashed with many images. At one time there was a dementor right above looking straight at the screen. Then with another flash there was a scene of Sirius floating off into the veil. In an instant there was an image of an older teen getting hit with the killing curse, then a scene showing a man with another head on the back of his bald head. Many images flashed on the screen, no sound being displayed.

'This must be Harry's most miserable moments of his life.' Danny reasoned as he watched more and more scenes from Harry's life.

'This is horrible.' Danny thought as he watched scene after scene.

Danny turned away from screen looking around for Voldemort. He looked for just a moment before cold dark voice spook, echoing around the dark room.

"This boy is nothing."

Danny turned around quickly to see Voldemort walking in from the side approaching Danny.

"A pathetic excuse of a wizard. So weak, so venerable." Voldemort finished, smiling evilly.

"If that's true? Then why has it been so hard to kill him" Danny retorted.

Voldemort smile diminished his eyes turning more slit like as he glared towards Danny.

"I'd watch your manners. You don't want to say something you'd regret." Voldemort stated.

Danny glared towards the dark wizard, trying to show no fear in front of the man who spreads fear with his name.

"Nah, there isn't any fun in a fight without witty banter." Danny said confidential. "Now, get out of Harry's body!"

Voldemort started to circle around Danny, wand raised. Danny started to circle opposite looking for any sudden moves.

"I will do no such thing. You are weaker than me, ghost." Voldemort retorted, spitting 'ghost' like an insult.

"Beat you last time didn't I?" Danny said smiling.

"I under estimated you. Just like the boy. And I will not make that mistake again!" Voldemort said, followed by a blast blue coming from his wand.

Danny jumped out of the way of the spell and fired an ecto blast back towards Voldemort. The dark lord took a black shield out of thin air and blocked the ecto blast with it, leaving a scorch mark on the shield.

Danny continued to fire the ecto beams trying to tire up Voldemort. The dark lord continued to block the beams and raise his wand and shot a blast of smoke covering himself and Danny in the smoke.

Danny coughed as the smoke surrounded him. He tried to move the smoke to find his foe before he felt something bite him below the knee. He brought his leg up and was surprised to see a snake hanging there.

Danny panicked and blasted the reptile, leaving it scorched on the dark floor below. More and more bites were felt on his body. The smoke dissipated and revealed that the floor around him was covered in snakes.

Danny floated in the air trying to wrench off all the snakes. But there were too many from all over. His legs, arms and chest were dangling with snakes digging uncomfortably into his skin. Some of the snakes had even wrapped themselves around Danny's neck.

Danny then focused on ectoplasmic energy in his body and burst the energy outward in a circular shield, successfully throwing off every snake on his body.

Before Danny had a chance to look for Voldemort he felt something hit him from below into his back. He flew through the air unable to control his fall, hitting hard into the floor. He coughed hard trying to breathe air, even when it could help in Harry's mind. Ectoplasmic blood dribbled down Danny's mouth and onto his chin.

Danny tried to get himself up from his back holding himself up with his arms. Voldemort walked towards him. Danny held out his palm aimed at Voldemort and shot an ecto blast at Voldemort.

Voldemort simply deflected the blast to the side. Danny tried again in desperation but Voldemort anticipated it and deflected the blast straight back towards Danny.

Danny had no time to shield himself and took the blast into his chest. He yelled in pain as his own ectoplasmic energy exploded into his chest, leaving a scorch mark on his chest, destroying more than half of his DP logo on his chest.

"You were never in my league, especially in legilimency." Voldemort said staring straight into Danny's pained eyes. "Let's see what valuable information is in your head spook."

Before Danny could do anything to defend himself, he was blasted through the wall of the black room. Suddenly he was flying through the air, noticing that he was back in the Ministry open hall. Every one of the injuries from the fight inside of Harry's mind somehow inflicted on him in the real world.

Before Danny hit the ground, he screamed in pain as he felt a force lodging its way through his head like a drill. He closed his eyes trying to fight the force, but it was too powerful.

Suddenly, the drill seemed to go into a second gear drilling deeper, forcing flashes through his head.

Then Danny looked and was seemly walking through an octagon opening into a wall. In no way was this 'The Ministry of Magic'. The octagonal hall was dark; wires layered the walls with multiple colours all around. But Danny continued to walk through the hall, having no control over his actions.

'Why is this so familiar?' Danny thought.

His hand brushed the side of the wall, his dark glove feeling the cool metal on the side.

Then Danny realized where he was.

'No, this is the day when-' Danny panicked before his hand pressed on something on the wall. Electricity pursed through Danny's body, as green light surrounded his body. He screamed as though the pain from that day had happened once more.

Then in a flash of white light, Danny was staring into the faces of his mother and father. He was chained to an examination table in his ghost form, surgical equipment was lined up on the trays on the side, ready for use.

Danny struggled with the shackles trying to desperately get out of the shackles but they wouldn't budge. Jack and Maddie both respectively put on surgical gloves with a loud snap on the skin. Jack went over to one of the trays and selected a large scalpel and approached towards Danny with the instrument getting closer to his stomach.

"I told you I'd rip you apart" Danny's father said as the scalpel cracked open Danny's chest. "Molecule, by Molecule"

"But, I'm your son! It's me, Danny!" Danny screamed as the incision went up his chest.

"How could a disgusting creature like you, be our son!" Danny's mother spat hatefully.

"NO! It's really me!" Danny screamed, ectoplasm now running down his hazmat. "It's me!"

The scene faded in another flash of light and Danny was now running towards the Nasty Burger. His family, English teacher and best friends tied to the red hot canister of flammable hot sauce, set to explode.

Danny ran having no control over himself, no way to shield himself from the impending boom.

The faces of his loved ones and Lancer were all instilled with fear before the canisters finally caved and exploded in a fiery storm of death. The blast knocked him back several feet skidding across the pavement, cutting up his bare skin.

'Why must I relive this?' Danny thought miserably.

Danny slowly got himself up from the pavement and noticed a large shadow from behind him.

Danny turned and saw his evil future self, Dan Phantom smiling with satisfaction at Danny's surprise. "I told you I was inevitable" he said darkly.

Danny got down his knees and held his head in between his hands. Tears started to dampen his cheek, he shook and wheezed for air as his mind was breaking down, trying not to scream.

'This can't be happening!' Danny thought miserably.

Then there was another flash of light.

Standing in front of him was the order of the phoenix and right by his feet was the dead body Harry Potter.

Stepping in front of the group was Hermione Granger. "You've done this! This is all your fault."

"What? No, I couldn't have-"

"You killed them!" Molly Weasley said hysterically from the front of the group.

"No, I-" Danny started before he was interrupted by a voice from above.

"Danny, it isn't real. You've got to fight Voldemort!"

"What?" Danny said looking all around for the source of the voice.

"You have to fight it!" The voice echoed.

"Dumbledore?" Danny asked.

Then another voice came in, much different than the first one. "You're just as weak as Potter. And worse, you're just a muggle that chanced on magical power!" The voice yelled.

"Fight it. Think of the good instead of the bad" The first voice pleaded.

Danny still on his knees started to concentrate on all of the good. His friends, his family, the people he's helped, his dreams and aspirations.

In flash there was the scene of him and his sister Jazz hugging each other after Clockwork stopped the alternate universe of Dan Phantom. This was when she had accepted him.

There was another flash of light where he was gazing at Sam in her purple gothic dress from the fall formal dance, staring at Danny with her beautiful violet eyes.

In another white flash, he was now sitting in the space shuttle wearing a space suit, flying through space like he'd always dreamed of.

Suddenly Danny was no longer there instead he was looking at the concerned face of Albus Dumbledore.

Danny was lying down on his back in the middle of the hall, his back completely burnt, his whole body covered in bite marks, his shoulder still raw from the 'scruge' spell. The logo part on his chest was indistinguishable from the scorch mark on his chest, ectoplasmic blood covered his chin and his left arm throbbed in pain from the impact on the floor coming out of Harry's body.

His head pounded like a bass drum, pain rolled through his body in waves, making it harder and harder for him to stay awake in his ghost form. He heard voices come from the side, but he was in too much pain to care.

His bloodshot eyes drooped up and down as tried to keep awake.

"It's over now Danny." Dumbledore said reassuringly.

Danny tried to nod, but he couldn't even muster the strength. Instead he put his head back on the wood floor. In a moment, a white haloed ring formed around his waist they both split apart and slowly travelled up and down his body at the same time.

Before there was Danny Phantom, powerful ghost hero lying on the floor, now there was the teenage muggle boy named Danny Fenton.

He heard gasps and screams coming from the mysterious people around him.

Then his eyes finally fully closed putting him fully unconscious, surrounding him in darkness.
