So, on to Animals! It's not what you'd expect.
Ghosts. I hate them. They are so evil, especially Phantom. He lies to everyone, and makes them think he is a good ghost. Like such a thing could even exist.
Ghosts are vicious. Like... animals. Ghosts are like animals. They can look cute, but can be extremely vicious. Like Phantom. Did I just think that? Ew! At least evil, so I'm not drooling at him like some girls (Paulina).
That would just be weird. What would people think if the Red Huntress who hates Danny Phantom with a passion, was drooling at him? It would be crazy.
The only reason I'm not is because I know he is evil. And that's why I'm chasing him now. He turns to face me, and yells out, "Not all ghosts are evil! Can't you see that?"
"Liar!" I yell straight back at him, as I blast him with my ectogun. He dodges, but just barely. Part of his jumpsuit is burnt now.
"Look, just because some of us are evil, doesn't mean all of us are evil." He says to me, as I aim the gun at him again.
"Yeah, and just because some humans are saps, doesn't mean all of us are!" I snap at him, as I put my hand on the trigger.
He duplicates, so I won't know which Phantom is which. "Yeah, I know that's true. Look, Adolf Hitler was evil, but he was a human. Does that mean all humans are evil?" He asks me, as I actually lower my gun to think.
A moment of silence passes, before I answer. "No. But that doesn't mean you're not evil! You pretend to be protecting this town, but I know you'll probably just turn on us. And that's why I'm here, trying to destroy you!" I raise my gun again, my finger on the trigger, just waiting to pull it and end his existence.
"Because of something that could happen? I know it could happen too, and I'm..." His voice was quivering now, and his duplicate fades away. Tears start to form in his eyes. Ghosts can cry? I think.
"You're what?" I say, trying to sound harsh.
He pauses for a moment, before looking at me straight in the eyes. I feel a sense of power behind his eyes as he speaks. "I'm... I'm scared OK? I'm scared of what I could become!"
I knew he was speaking the truth, but I can't show that to him. "Ghosts don't have emotions." I say, straight back at him.
"Well I do! You don't understand. I seen it happen. I seen what I could become. He killed everything I ever cared about. I killed everything I ever cared about." He says to me, as I finally understand that he's just a scared kid. Like Danielle was.
"I never knew." I begin with a soft tone, as he cuts me off and starts to settle down.
"I know. That's why I still saved you from him." He says to me, and I'm surprised. He still saved me, even though I hunt him, day in and day out?
"It must be hard. With everything that you care about being gone." I say, thinking about it.
"It's not all gone. A friend saved them, and gave me a second chance. He knew I could become evil, but I wouldn't in the end."
"What, does he know everything or something?" I ask sort of jokingly.
"Actually, yeah he does. But I probably shouldn't be talking about him. It could mess a lot of things up, with more people knowing." He says to me.
"Oh." I say, just looking at him. "Let's switch the topic."
"OK. You choose then..." Phantom tells me.
"You're like them, aren't you?" I ask him, holding my gun still in place. I won't lower it until I know.
"Like who?" He asks.
"Like Danielle. And Vlad." I reply, like it's obvious.
"You know about Vlad?" He asks, surprised. I nod, and wait for him to answer. "What would you do if one of your friends was a ghost?" He asks me, like the answer to this question would be the difference of life and death.
I guess it would. For someone. "I'd be mad for not telling me, but I'd get over it. But just ANSWER my question Phantom." I demand.
He thinks for a moment, then looks around to see if anyone else was around. No one is. "I'm a halfa, not a ghost." He answers, before landing on a building. "But don't tell ANYONE."
I don't say a word. I wait for him to talk, but he doesn't. He eyes my gun, and I lower it. "I won't." He smiles, and I continue. "Now go before I figure out who you are." He leaves immediately, and I head back home, thinking about if he was actually evil or not.
I think back to my thoughts during the chase. Ghosts might be like animals, but humans actually are animals. Now let's just hope he acts more like Danielle than Vlad.
