The Note (One-Shot)

Chapter 1: Shouldn't Be Here

Author's Note: Please feel free to give me some constructive criticism. Thank you for reading.

'I shouldn't be here' That's what he starts the note with.

'I should have died in the accident with the portal.' He clarifies. Well, he died halfway.

'Now I have freaky ghost powers and am a paranormal magnet.' AKA a danger magnet. 'Not just for myself but mom, dad, Jazz, and my two best friends!'

'I'm tired, as cliché as that sounds.

'Back to the point, leave it to a freak like Danny to not even die like he was supposed to.

'...Crap. Why did I write in third person? Why'd I think that'd be a good idea? Well, that's how most my ideas go.'

He could think of multiple examples.

'Sure I may have used my powers to help against ghosts but... I causes more problems than he helps with, I'm sure.'

No, he's not just sure. He knows that he causes more problems. He's had his friends nearly, if not ouright, hurt trying to help him. He clenches his pencil.

He used to care about his grades, at least somewhat, but they started to go down after starting to help with the ghost problem. He writes as such.

'Which wouldn't even be a problem if I never attracted that problem in the first place. Or problems in general. My whole life his a problem. Well, my half-life, that is.'

He starts to write out his thoughts quickly. 'No matter how much I try to help, I've come to accept that I'd be more useful being dissected in a lab. Scapels slicing through skin, opening my body up to be exposed for what I am. Maybe a skin tissue sample taken. Maybe they could skin me.'

He pauses his writing as he leans his head back to laugh morbidly.

Then he continues. 'Would I bleed ectoplasm or blood? Maybe it'd be some unholy mixture of the two. Maybe once they cut me open, they would take out my organs, examine them one by one. Would I even have human organs at this point?!' Maybe in his human form. Heck, should he do it in his human or his ghost form?

'Should I just... Finish the job that the portal opening me while I was fried with electricity didn't? Can I even die when I've gone ghost?!' He questions in the note.

'Imagine my body being useless, even after everything.' Not like it would change anything, except there would be less problems without him there to attract them.

He stops writing.

Sam and Tucker would be... Tucker would be horrified and Sam would be... Angry? In shock? He's not sure. Sam can be kind of unpredictable with some stuff.

They'll understand. They have to. They've been with him since the start of this whole mess. They're strong. They'll be fine.

At least he won't get shoved into lockers anymore or have anyone try to sabotage him or steal his luch anymore or

...He has nothing left to write. He probably rambled too much in the note anyway.
