WARNING: For sensitive readers this chapter is very emotional and does talk about suicide. Read at your own risk.

I silently leave the room. I drop the journal off on my bed. I was so reading more of it tonight.

I go back down stairs to help clean up a bit more before showering and going back up to my room. I was exhausted, but the urge to read more quickly overwhelmed it and I fought off the sleep demon for now.

Grabbing the book I sit, opening it back up. A couple of pages looked to have been torn out in a rage leaving only bits of pages that couldn't be read.

The next entry was dated 2/25/14 and had tear stains on the page.

Everyone thinks I'm crazy. Even my sister jazz who followed me and found out about my secret a few days ago thinks I'm going insane. Theres this new ghost that can only be seen by other ghosts or kids and hes been taunting me and making my life a living hell for the last few days. Since nobody else, but kids can see him he uses that to his advantage playing pranks on me every chance he gets. Like i'll be in the middle of class and he'll push me over making me look like an idiot. On top of that he's constantly making the devices around the house go off causing my parents to become even crazier than they already are thinking were being haunted. Dad put the ectosheild up around the house 7 times within the last 2 weeks. Im about ready to go insane.

Its so hard having these powers sometimes. I wish I could go back to being just normal Danny Fenton. It seems ever since I've gotten these powers they've caused me nothing but pain. I cant even pursue my dream of being an astronaut anymore because of what I am! I feel like I'm trapped inside this endless loop of hopelessness. I try and put on a brave face for sam and Tucker. I always tell them I'm fine, but I feel as if I'm slowly breaking inside. Sometimes I think about what would happen if I just permanently ended it, would I come back as a full ghost? Or would I actually die?

Clockwork would probably kill me if he knew my thoughts right now.

I close the book not being able to stop as the tears fall from my eyes. Poor Danny hes had such a rough life. I never imagined the happy go luck Danny we've come to know to have thought about suicide. He's just always seemed so blessed to have as many powers as he does. To think there's this whole other side to Danny we've yet to encounter. Granted hes only been in our class for a few months, but its seems we've all been friends for a lifetime.

I wipe my tears hiding the book under my mattress. I dont think I can handle any more sadness tonight. As soon as Danny is feeling better I want all of us to go have some fun. I dont want Danny feeling sad or trapped anymore. I want to help him get through his trauma and confide in other people.

Yawning I slip underneath my cozy blankets falling into a dreamless sleep.

Danny

I wake in an all white room with a supposed one way mirror. A metal door next to it. I begin to to panic also noticing that my clothes had been changed to a long sleeve thermal, and sweatpants. I wore no shoes or socks. All that was in the room was a small bed that I had just been laying on,  a small toilet in the corner with a small privacy wall and a sink right next to it. I begin to cry. No please tell me I haven't been captured again. I cant go back there. I cant go back to living in a GIW facility.

They caught me once. I was in there for 2 weeks. I will never forget those two weeks. They made me go through strenuous painful testing and tortured me day and night no matter the condition I was in. They used ectoranium to keep me weak so I wouldn't heal or be able to use my powers as much. Most of the scars on my body are from them. There mostly faded now but I can still remember the pain as if it happened just yesterday.

I need to find a way out. Quickly transforming I try breaking the hinges on the door finding that they wouldn't even budge.

"I would try to escape if I were you!"  I instantly reconize the voice as Aizawas. I stop looking to the mirror seeing him on the other side. I dont know if they know I can see right through it." Why am I in here? What are you going to do to me? Please let me go. I haven't done anything!" I plead trying to get him to let me out.

"We can't Danny this is for your own wellbeing and for the safety of everyone right now. Until we can find a way to be able to handle your powers safely you are to stay here." He says making me tilt my head in confusion. What does he mean by the safety of everyone and myself. I haven't done anything.

"What do you mean? I haven't done anything to harm anyone or myself." He sighs." Danny two days ago you went on a rampage destroying your room and almost the entirety of the 1-A dorms. Luckily no students were harmed, but you lost control of yourself." I stand their stunned. I lost control of myself and destroyed the dorms. I couldnt, I wouldn't. Their had to be a mistake. "Its all on the security cameras Danny and the students were eye witnesses.".

I fall back on the bed looking down at my hands. I almost hurt people. My heart ached at the thought. I was supposed to protect them. But how can I when I can't even protect them from myself. Im a monster. Mom and dad were right. I am nothing but lowely evil ghost scum. I hurt people without even trying. I fall back letting the tears flow. Why me? What God did I piss off and cause them to hate me so much, to bestow such bad luck on me? I'm slowly becoming more and more like him each day, and that scares me.
