Alright, in case I didn't tell you earlier because my memory's a bit tied to GIMP at the moment, I'll be updating this story 3 times a week (Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday). And I also might make a comic with one of the chapters, I'll hold a poll which will expire on December 23rd before Christmas. The chapter with the most votes I'll do a comic on. I'll also be doing this on DeviantART :)
But for now, another chapter of Love Triangle! ;)
Danny Phantom © Butch Hartman
Instead of hiding in the same place they were before, Danny ran as fast as he could towards the school. It was twilight times; Danny thought it was around 2 or 3 am.
Not long later, the specter speeder (there's two words for it) returned and searched all along the coastline but saw nothing. They even had the front lights on full blast but still there was no sign of neither of the boys. Sam growled then folded her arms, a small amount of pain was felt near her elbow.
"This cannot be happening!" she grumbled.
Maddie sighed in anger. "We'll have to search in the morning."
"But they could be anywhere! Phantom can fly you know!"
Maddie smiled briefly. "We blasted Phantom, I'm sure they haven't gone far and by morning they'd be lucky if they reached the border of the city. We'll sleep for the rest of the night and once it's sunrise, we'll search again."
Sam crossed her arms harshly as Maddie steered the specter speeder towards the Fenton house where Sam had slept that night in Jazz's room with Jazz (lol obviously).
At the Casper High school, Danny was still in his human form as well as Phantom still being fused inside of him. Phantom managed to turn invisible so Danny could get inside but Phantom couldn't take much more and neither could Danny. Danny sat next to a hall of lockers and held his gut as if the pain from Phantom was taking over him.
Phantom was talking Danny through his mind due to Phantom being his ghost half and unable to change form.
"D-Danny….?"
"What is it Phantom?" Danny asked while trying to ignore the pain he was experiencing.
"I need to heal myself…"
Danny sighed in regret. "Phantom…I'm sorry…this is my entire fault."
"What are you talking about?" Phantom asked through Danny's mind.
"Well...it's just that…"
Suddenly, a burst of pain exploded form Danny's chest and it wasn't pleasurable pain.
"Let's go find the bathroom."
Luckily they didn't lock all the doors on the inside, just the front and back. So all the doors on the inside were open. Danny struggled on his way to get there; he tasted blood in his mouth as he opened the door that led to the boy's bathroom.
He looked in the mirror and saw Phantom; they were both getting weaker by the minute. They didn't know what to do, they couldn't think of anything that could save the both of them. And they both knew very well that splitting themselves again wouldn't help at all.
"Danny…"
"Phantom…what are we going to do now?"
Danny reached out towards Phantom, he did the same. His face looked a mess; there were bruises on his forehead and cheeks. There was a scar still fresh with green blood on his cheek; Phantom felt the stinging pain from it ever since he got it from the blast.
"I would sacrifice myself for you…"
"I would too…" Phantom said with a weak smile.
"But, how will we get ourselves better? There's nothing good in a school."
Phantom gasped with amazement as he realised what was actually in the school. "The science lab!
"What's in the science lab?"
Phantom face palmed. "Lab equipment! There might be something in there to heal us!"
"Hey, you're right!" Danny smiled brightly.
So Danny dashed out of the boy's bathroom them zipped into the science lab but he wasn't sure what her was looking for.
"Um Phantom? What am I supposed to be looking for?"
Phantom then forced Danny's body over to a small cupboard in front of the chalkboard, he opened it up to see a test tube rack full of full test tubes and all of them had different colours.
"What do I do with them?"
"Drink one."
"Are you nuts!? How is drinking something possibly deadly going to heal us?"
"I remember one time while you were sleeping during science class; your science teacher was experimenting on how to heal the dead. I can't remember what exact one worked but I'm positive that it wasn't these three." Phantom explained through Danny's mind then pointing to the orange, light blue and grey one.
"Well, that just leaves the dark green one and the dark yellow one. Which one do you think it was?"
"Hold on, I'll try and remember what he said…" Phantom gasped. "He didn't say! He came to wake you up!"
Danny face palmed in anger. "Idiot! Why did he do that!? He was that close to giving the answer!"
"Then the bell rang so, yeah. No one knows the answer; we're going to have to try for ourselves."
"But Phantom, I don't want to die and I don't want you to die."
"I know you don't but would you rather die than live with Sam?"
Danny's eyes narrowed at the thought of her. "Alright, I'll do it. For us."
Danny closed his eyes as he picked up one of the test tubes. He didn't want to know what the colour was. He opened up his mouth then quickly tipped the whole contents of the test tube into his mouth; he quickly swallowed then fell to the floor unconscious as well as Phantom.
When sunrise arrived, Danny's eyes shot open faster than the faster lightning bolt. The test tube worked, he sprung on his feet and smiled with relief and happiness.
"It worked! I feel normal again!"
"Danny, transform and I'll see if it fully worked."
So Danny did transform and as he predicted, all the wounds had disappeared. The scar on Phantom's cheek had gone back to his normal slightly tanned skin, and his suit was all patched up like brand new.
"Wow! You're right, it did in fact work!"
"Which one did we use?"
"Let's split first and then we'll see what one you drank."
"Well, alright then…"
Then Phantom with ease dropped out of Danny's body and floated gratefully beside his lover.
Danny approached the cupboard to see one empty test tube and another test tube full of dark yellow liquid.
"So I drank the green one?"
"Looks like," Phantom smiled.
Suddenly, the both heard the front doors of the school open. Phantom grabbed Danny quickly but gently then dashed out the window while turning invisible at the same time.
Hmm I wonder what's going to happen next! Find out on Thursday! ^_^
