A Danny Phantom fic by Gildy AKA YaoiUke.
Chapter II.
The fact that McLain know about Danny’s unusual ghost power is enough to send Danny into paranoid mode. He simply can’t help but to feel suspicious on the new Casper High student. Danny became so paranoid by the fact and decided to visit McLain’s apartment with complete arsenal. He carried the Fenton Thermos and a pair of Fenton Peelers on his backpack just in case things went out of control.
“Danny, do you really have to pack all of those ghost-busting weapons ?” Sam asked while eyeing Danny, who was packing all of the ghost-busting contraptions into his backpack.
“You heard McLain clearly, he knew about my ghost power… That’s enough to make me worry” Said Danny without stopping packing the stuffs.
“I don’t have ghost power, but if I’m in Danny’s shoes, I would be worried too” Tucker added. “Speaking of which… You didn’t talk in your sleep, right Sam ?”.
“Tucker, I do NOT talk in my sleep… Maybe you babble about Danny’s secrets while chatting online ?”.
“Guys, C’mon, all of this McLain stuffs made me worry already, I don’t need you to make it worse” Danny sighed in frustration because of Tucker and Sam’s lack of tact.
“You worry too much Danny, I think McLain is a good guy” Sam patted Danny on the shoulder, trying to reassure her friend.
“You’re saying that because you’ve crush on McLain” Tucker snorted, which was awarded with an empty, flying Fenton Thermos to his forehead by Sam.
Danny looked at the clock which shows that it’s 18:00. “Oh well, might as well get going” He slung the backpack into his back and left his room along with Tucker and Sam.
It didn’t take the three long time to reach McLain’s apartment, after all, it’s located just on the back of Danny’s home.
“At least your ghost sense isn’t flaring up” Sam said as the three went into an elevator to reach McLain’s apartment unit.
“So far, so good. Just be prepared for anything” Danny nodded. His expression tensed as they’re getting close to their destination. His palms started to sweat heavily as if he was facing a firing squad.
The lift soon stopped and McLain’s unit was actually just a unit away from the elevator. Bracing for the worst, Danny rang the bell to McLain’s apartment unit.
“Come on in, it’s not locked… I’ve been expecting you guys” Said McLain from the inside of his apartment.
Sure enough, the door was not locked. The trio slowly enters the apartment with caution. They spotted McLain, still dressed on his black tanktop shirts and shorts. The trio first impression of the apartment was that the unit was well maintained. Everything was tidy and neat and there’s a burning sandalwood incense, which give the room a nice ambient smell.
“Come, sit down” Said McLain while leading his guests to the couch. He disappeared fast into the kitchen and returned with few cans of coke and a bowlful of potato chips.
Soon the four of them took their seat on the couches and strangely, the next thing that follows was a rather long silence. McLain had to break the silence otherwise the meeting won’t go anywhere.
“So… I guess you’re wondering why I know you and most importantly, I know about Danny’s secrets” McLain paused, taking a deep breath. “You see, we’ve meet before on several occasion, but I was different back then”.
“Ehm…” Danny cleared his throat. “Okay… What do you mean different ?”.
McLain remained silent. Instead, he reached for his pocket and produced a mascara. He applied the mascara onto his face and everything becomes clear to the three.
“No way…. No way….” Tucker mumbled incoherently.
“B… B… But you’re supposed to be…” Sam stared at McLain with loose jaw.
“Impossible…” Danny gasped
“… It’s me, Ember….”
“But… HOW ?!”
“Well… It’s a long story, but to make it short… There was a revolution in the Ghost Zone. A couple of crazed demon overlords took over the ghost zone and decided that the ghost are free to roam the world as they please” McLain, which was none other than Ember McLain paused to take a sip from his can of coke. “At first, I like the idea, but then, those overlords started to exploit the ghosts for their own gain. Lots of low level ghosts become their slaves. Few friends of mine started a campaign to oppose the overlords and I joined them. At the end, we got stomped and almost all of us were executed-“.
“Executed ? Ghosts can’t die” Danny interjected.
“Oh, they actually can, Danny. Ghosts can die…. Well, not died, but disappear forever. It just took a long time for a ghost to completely disappear. That’s why ghosts seem to be immortal. They’re not immortal, it’s just they’ve extremely long life”.
“I see…” Said Sam while nodding her head.
“Where was I... ?. Ah, yes, executed… I was lucky because I wasn’t involved in the opposition so much. However, they caught me too and banish me to the world as a level C Halfa. They were kind enough to grant me one final wish before they banish me… And can you guess what I wish ?”.
“Easy… You choose to be a boy…” Said Danny.
“Yes…To be honest, I don’t know which one is better... Being level A as a ghost or level C as a Halfa”.
“Er… Level ?”.
“Yes, there are levels of ghosts according to their power. Level C is the weakest and level A is the strongest. After that, you got the S and Super S class. Most of the overlords are Super S class... By the way, you're categorized as level A, Danny”.
“So you’re saying that you can turn into a ghost… But a very weak one ?”
“Yes…Here, let me show you…” Ember stood up. “Going phantom” He whispered sharply and begun his transformation into his ghost state. At the same time, Danny’s ghost sense suddenly flares up. Appearance-wise, the Halfa-Ember is similar to the old ghost-Ember, however the Halfa-Ember lacked something that the old ghost-Ember had, a big woman breast.
“Awesome…” Tucker Said.
“Looks ghostly enough to me” Sam said.
“….” Danny just went quiet.
“Well, there you are, my secret. I told you this now because I do NOT want to be inside one of that Fenton Thermos”. Said Ember and begun to revert himself into his human form. He was visibly tired because of the transformation.
“Lemme guess…” Danny paused. “You’re exhausted yourself ?”.
“Yeah… Being a Halfa isn’t that easy… I need lots of practice”.
Tucker and Sam swore that they could see Danny’s eyes lit up and sparkled for a second as he stared at Ember attentively. “I could help you there, Ember” Said Danny, offering his help.
“Really ?... But…” Ember bites his lips, clearly hesitated to answer.
“But what ? I know we were enemy, but now you’re on the same side with us… Besides, if these overlords were really crazy, they could have planned something bad for the world”.
“Actually, they are planning something about the world. I was banished before knowing what they had in mind”.
“More reasons for us to work together… C’mon, Ember. Let me help” Danny stood up and reached for Ember’s hand.
“Thank you…” Suddenly, Ember's eyes gleamed. Everything seems to slow down as he launched himself to hug Danny tightly around the waist.
“Okay, they really freak me out now…” Said Tucker.
“…” Sam looked very offended just now.
“Say, Ember, why don’t you stay in my home tonight. We can start your training with small steps from now on” Said Danny after Ember release him from the mighty hug.
“Really ?!. Wow… I never thought you’ll ask this quick”. Ember’s eyes sparkled with delight. “Wait for a bit, I’ll pack some stuffs up” He disappeared quickly into his bedroom to pack some clothing and stuffs for sleepover at Danny’s home.
“Real smooth, genius…” Sam growled at Danny.
“Hey, the sooner Ember gained his strength, the better for us, right ?” Danny tried to talk some senses to Sam.
“I don’t know, Danny…. I just don’t know….” Sam sighed while shaking her head.
“Trust me alright, it’s going to be okay”.
“Whatever you say….” Sam rolled her eyes.
The End of Chapter II.
