The Trio Reborn (DP Fanfic)

The Trio Reborn (DP) Part 5 Sam Wakes Up

    My eyes snap open as I finish going through that little flashback. I need to focus on the present, not the unneeded past. I focus again and discover that I seem linked to Sam and Tucker's cores, possibly because I am the cause of their current status, perhaps we can talk telepathically. It is interesting how their cores turned out, Sam's is Fire, the opposite of Ice, and Tucker's is Electric. Electricity is our Death Weaknesses, ecto-plasmic radiation via electrocution is how we died., so it'll be interesting to see what happens with Tucker's Electric Core. I think I can also manipulate ectoplasmic-plasm better as well, enough to form solid objects at least. I'll have to test that out and practice. My eyes just won't change back from being red though so I'll have to cover them whenever I go out, I'll have to wear a disguise anyways. I wonder what we'll do now, the ghost zone is very dangerous with my many enemies, and we can't live among Humans anymore. We can't stay here all the time either though. I sigh and try to think of where to go. Perhaps if I talk to Dan? No. He will just try to influence me more than giving advice. I don't want to destroy Amity Park, just make certain people pay for their actions, perhaps gain more power so we can live in the ghost zone. I would need to be King for that, That is in my plans already so I'll have to see what I can do. I already have the Far frozen and Dora's Kingdom as allies and forces. Also Pandora's people and other ghosts I have befriended. I already have a good foothold, I just have to expand it. It'll sound good being called King Phantom with Sam by my side as Queen Phantom. Tucker will be our Royal Advisor with his own Ruling rights, he is a Pharaoh after all. We will all be ruling side by side, and no one will be able to defy and hurt us ever again. We will have to work towards that goal, no matter what! I will have to let Sam and Tucker take it easy since they will be getting used to their new selves, I'll have to train them. Perhaps I can get Vlad to agree to help, he does control decent forces in the Ghost Zone. Only Time will tell I suppose, I wonder what Clockwork thinks of this? I guess it is fine since he hasn't intervened. I hear movement from Sam, I think she is waking up. I float back down to the ground and walk towards her as she sits up, holding her had in one hand. I sit down in front of her, taking her hand in mine, and ask "Are you alright my PlantQueen?" I smile at the name, it fits her so nicely.

    "PlantQueen? Danny, what's going on, I feel strange. I, I don't remember anything past you freaking out." She is still looking down, closing her eyes against a headache I presume.

"Really? You should, it is the most important day of your afterlife after all. We will all be together  forever, one day ruling however we wish. With you as my Queen And Tucker as our Advisor there is nothing that can stand in our way, after you guys train of course. I would imagine you guys will have the same kind of problems I first did when I died, well, half-died. I made sure you guys have the same halfa status as me, so don't worry. You can still cling to your humanity." As I was talking Sam opened her eyes, wide open, and after I was done she looked up at me, flinching back. Why is she flinching, I won't hurt her anymore, I don't want to and she can't remember what I did. "D-Danny, is.. is that really you? You haven't broken your promise have you?!" She starts backing away, taking her hand from mine, as I realize the problem is my eyes. I close them and take a deep breath, doing my best to make them not red, any color but red. I open them again and she flinches, again. I guess it didn't work.

     I close my eyes before speaking. "Don't worry Sam, It's still me. I haven't broken my promise to you. I just, I changed. My eyes won't go back to green or blue, most likely because of my Core. It, " I sigh again, "It did change, but I'm not Dan, I'm still Danny Phantom." I open my eyes to see fear replaced with worry as she moves back to sitting next to me, I can tell she wants an explanation. "My core feels a bit empty now, but it changed so that can be expected. I have gotten a few more abilities that I need to test out, you guys need to learn about what abilities you may have too. I umm, kinda failed my obsession of protecting everyone when my world-view shattered earlier during class. I started changing in front of the class and you decided you needed to trap me in the Fenton Thermos, and then in my parent's ghost containment chamber. I had already changed but you tried to convince me to 'go back to normal', but I knew the truth. I was to far gone, everyone had seen what happened, there was no way I could go back to my life before, my core itself had changed. I didn't want to be lonely like Dan and so I decided on the best course of action" I open my eyes and smile at her, showing my fangs. She looks a bit uncertain, but she'll understand. "I decided to bring you guys with me, but you couldn't be Human for that. Luckily you guys have been ghosts before, if only temporarily, so with some improvising I could turn you guys into Halfas too. I won't explain the whole painful process, god I didn't want to cause the pain I went through to you guys, but I had to." By this point I had looked away, and I look back saying "So that now we can all rule together, forever. I have already gathered a bit of information on your guy's Cores so I can tell you about that. Then after you guys have rested I'll go talk with Vlad, he might me willing to help." She looks shocked, and scared now? "Hey, Sam are you alright? You do understand why I made you guys Halfas right? We will all rule the Ghost Zone together one day. We will always be together, with the benefits of both Humans and Ghosts."

   Then she whispered something. "You killed us. You didn't just change, you broke your promise to us."

    "I didn't break my promise! I'm still Danny Phantom. I won't ever be Dan Phantom. He even agrees with me."

    "What do you mean Dan agrees, you can't talk to him, He is imprisoned and guarded in Clockwork's Tower! You also didn't deny killing us.... No wonder your core changed, you went way to far." She said this with a bitterness in her voice I feel unhappy with, she had also backed away again. 

    I want to try using telepathy, perhaps now would be a good time to test it. Don't freak out, I'm testing the telepathy we all have together for some reason, probably because of how we all are connected via me causing our deaths. I didn't go too far, it was the best decision I could make. As for Dan and I talking, he has been in my head since yesterday. He has decided to only talk when I am willing to now though. He helped me realize I can change, do things another way without breaking my promise. Even if that wasn't his original intention he does agree with me. She seems really surprised now, at least she hasn't freaked out. I don't think Tucker will do to well in that aspect though with how he is.

    "W.. we can use telepathy? How do I do that? Wait, that's not what I should be asking right now! Why the hell did you listen to Dan!? He has led you on a path of no return, and he made you drag us into it! You killed us, how is that not breaking your promise!" She looked more mad than anything now, I need to calm her down now.

     Sam, It's alright. Can I just talk to you telepathically like this? It seems more comfortable for me. You might be able to use it by just thinking of what you want to say to me and direct it with your mind to mine. I didn't break my promise because I didn't turn into Dan. I didn't want to listen to him at first, but he eventually started making sense, and then suddenly I could understand some of his points of view. I still don't completely trust him though so don't worry, I won't let him control me. I control myself. I did say that I had already changed to the point of no return didn't I? He didn't do that, I did it. I realized that I shouldn't have to protect ungrateful Humans who don't care about what happens to me and feel entitled in their cowardice. I can live just fine without doing that, and my world-view shifted, changed. That led to my core, and obsession, being altered. Now I want to rule with those I care for. I want to Rule the Ghost Zone with you and Tucker forever. Your Obsession is Plants, you are the Queen of Plants. So your Ghost Name is PlantQueen. Tucker's obsession is technology, like Technos, but he is a Pharaoh so his Ghost Name is Tech Pharaoh. Of course we still have our Human names, and we will eventually have other titles and names as we rise to our rightful place in the world. When Tucker wakes up and things have been explained to him I will head over to Vlad's to, persuade him to help us out. You and Tucker should experiment with your powers meanwhile.

    Sam got a look of concentration and then I can hear her talking in my head. Alright, can you hear me? I smiled and nodded my head Yes. Alright. I still think you have gone too far off the edge but what you've done is done, we can only move on. You said something about knowing about our Cores? 

    Ya. You have a Fire Core and Tucker has an Electric Core. I found this quite interesting actually. I don't know the exact details about them though seeing as I only had to learn about my Ice core, so we should probably ask someone who knows. Frostbite should know someone, I don't think it is a good idea for you to go there without being very prepared with your Fire Core though. I'll go meet with him sometime to see what I can do about your guy's Cores. Maybe Vlad can help with that, we'll just have to wait and see.
