Mathew sighed and stared at himself in the mirror, his reflection disgusting him. The way ribs showed through his skin. His eyes were blood shot from crying while his muscles were barely showing.

He has been having these nightmares, that involve the ghost that attacked him. The one that viscously punched and kicked the young teen energetically. Like he enjoyed my pain and humiliation.

Yup he is my complete opposite.

Mathew had not been eating either, he was, broken. The ghost left him broken, shattered into so many pieces that he wasn't sure if he could piece himself together again.

Without help.

Danny has been constantly checking in on me, seeing and begging me to eat. Why, I guess he cared about me like a brother should.

But I feel like he's keeping something from me,
Something big.

His heart was flipping as he grabbed a bag from his room and dumped its contents onto his makeshift bed. All that was left was a few pieces of what he used to have on his ghost tracker. That ghost destroyed it.

Now, all I have are my family. So what else can go wrong.

That's when IT happened.

That same ghost that brutally attacked me walked into the room swiftly through the wall, his red eyes smirking at my body.

"Well you look better like this, more, afraid." He laughed as Mathew growled and snapped at him.

"Well you listen to me ghost, you had ruined my life from the start and I am going to finish it." That's when he grabbed the Fenton thermos.

"What is a Fenton Thermos going to do, you don't have any ghostly abilities to activate it."

That is true, how is he going to trap this internal pain in the butt. Hm, oh I have an idea.

"I know, but I know someone who does have ghost powers".

The ghosts eyes widened, "don't you dare go get your brother you pesky human."

Wait, what.?

"What do you mean about my brother, my brother is not a ghost, and he will never be."

The ghost eyed the weary and running out of patience teen before laughing, falling to the floor to catch his breath.

"He. he never told you HA THATS HILARIOUS". He screamed out the last part in a laugh before rubbing his tear stained face,

"Wow, Uhm, you do really look like an idiot, but now you are acting like an idiot."

"I am no such thing, I am smarter than you will ever be."

Mathew growled at the ghost before tugging at his own hair. "Now look at me spirit my brother is not hiding anything from me. He would never". He hesitated as the ghost leaned in towards the teens ear.

"Are you sure about that? How many times has he been late to breakfast, lunch, and dinner hm. How many times does he come back from his 'friends' house hurt?

If you can tell me why, go on, enlighten me with your well decided answer".

Mathew stared at the ghost tears in his eyes.

"How could he, I'm his brother, why couldn't he tell me." He started to tear up more before balling into shirt, cuddling into himself for warmth.

"There there little one, you do not have to be afraid of me." Wait, that was not the ghost before,

He looked up shocked, the phantom was in his room. To his amazement, so was this fire wolf creature. Mathew had heard so much about them, they were both so cool, if only I was a ghost.

"You would not want to be a ghost." That was when a blinding blue and white light filled the air, a ring forming around the phantoms torso, splitting and devouring his body in white light.

Mathew covered his eyes; holding his hands out for a few seconds before staring at where Phantom once stood. Now replaced by Danny Fenton.

"Oh. My. GOD!" Mathew screeched and fell back, crawling backwards away from Danny.

"W-why are you afraid of me Matt."

Tears were in Mathews eyes as he lifted his shirt to show scars of what that one ghost did to him.

"Your ghostly pal decided to barge in and beat me up, why should I trust you." He gripped into his knees and laid back staring at the cealing.

"I know this is a lot to take in but you have to trust us, we did not have any control over that." He replied before the fire wolf started to talk to him. Much to his suprise.

"It's nobody's fault but Malihika."

"Who's Malihika."

Danny and The fire wolf gave glances before giving him a sad smile. "We will tell you later."

Mathew nodded and fell asleep cuddled next to the fire wolf (who had calmed the fire) and Danny Fenton, or should I say Danny Phantom.
