Phantom of Interest

Chapter Seven: Stormy Tidings

Disclaimer: I do not own Person of Interest or Danny Phantom. I'm just borrowing their characters.

AN: I'm using Bailee Madison as the face claim for Danielle.

AN2: I am so sorry it took so long to get this out. I stopped working on this to work on a few other stories, plus I got busy with work, and time just slipped away from me! And then I wound up catching Covid and did not have the energy or will power to write for anything for a while after that. But I'm better now, and have found a bit of a muse for this story once more!!!

Chapter Seven: Stormy tidings

Third Person P.O.V.

The next morning

Dani groaned as consciousness returned to her. Her head hurt, and her eyes felt itchy, and the sun light hitting her face wasn't helping any. She rubbed her eyes and sat up, glancing around the room blearily for a moment. And then the events from the previous day came rushing back to her and she groaned, flopping back to lie on the couch.

"Well, this is just peachy," She muttered.

A whine came from next to her, and then a cold nose was pressing into her side. Dani glanced down to find Bear staring up at her, and she gently patted his head.

"I can not believe I cried in front of them, damn panic attacks," Dani grumbled, running her fingers through Bear's fur.

She sighed, and sat up once more, glancing around her. The room was a mess. The round table that was in the middle of room was over turned, and the books that had been sitting on top of it were now strewn all over the floor. Dani cringed as she saw how the books laid on the floor haphazardly, some of the books pages bent. If there was one thing Sam had taught her, it was that books were to be respected and taken care of.

Dani gently patted Bear on the head, then stood up and moved towards the over turned table. She righted the table, and began picking up the books, setting them carefully on the table. Once that was done she glanced around the room once more, and found that the gate that Reese had shut and locked last night was open. She could smell pancakes and bacon drifting through the library, coming from the direction of the main room. Her stomach growled at the thought of eating something more than just apples, Banana's, and peaches.

She never really stole much from the stores, just a few fruits here and there from different stores every day. She knew she needed food, both for herself and the other homeless people in New York, but she felt bad about stealing. So, she only stole small non expensive things. Which meant she didn't really eat much, not unless she stopped by Amity Park. And she hadn't had bacon in ages, not since the last time she visited the Fenton's almost a year ago. Her stomach growled once more and she frowned.

She could take this moment to leave and go back to the home she'd made for herself, or she could stick around here for a little bit and get some actual food. Dani groaned as her stomach rumbled again.

'It can't hurt to grab something to eat on the way out,' Dani thought, moving towards the gate.

She quietly moved through the library, Bear by her side. She could hear Reese and Finch talking in the main area of the library, and she hesitated as she reached the row of shelfs right before the main area. She peeked around the shelf and out into the room. Finch was sitting at the round table in the center of the room, typing away on his computers. Reese was sitting in a chair at the other end of the table, eating some bacon.
