And just when Danny thinks he can escape from the bully for the week by spending it in North Carolina at his Grandma Fenton's Victorian Estate, Dash's father makes his son join the Fenton's on their family getaway to do the assignment because if he fails it, he's off the foot ball team.

Chapter one
Intro
The lightning flashed outside her small bedroom window as thunder crashed in the air and rattled the windows of the two story Victorian style farm house as she jumped slightly in her chair as she brushed her hair watching as the candle's flame flickered with the shaking of the house from the raging storm outside.
"Daisey!"
A little boy cried as he darted through her opened bed room door as she glanced over to him and gave him a warm smile as he dove into her arms as she set the brush on the small wooden table.
"What is it John? Are you scared of the storm?"
The much older young woman said as her raven colored hair fell over her shoulders as she felt the boy give a harsh nod into her and mumbled something that sounded like a "yes".
"Well don't worry; Big Sister is here so you don't have to worry. So why don't you do on back to bed now?"
"But what about the cannon fire?"
John asked her as he looked up as his older sister with fear shinning in his blue eyes. Daisey gave her little brother a comforting smile as she rubbed his back in a soothing manner in an attempt to calm him.
"Now don't you worry about them red coats and their cannons, anyone whose smart wouldn't dare do battle on a night like this. Now off to bed John."
Daisy assured him as she spun the boy around as she stood from her chair and started to push the boy from her room.
"Okay…"
John muttered as he walked slowly out of the room.
"So no cannons?"
He asked once more as his sister gave him a nod.
"No canons."
She said as her little brother gave her a shy look and quietly padded down the hallway to his bedroom that he shared with his older brother who was already sleeping. Daisey gave out a sigh that was quickly followed by a yawn as she picked up her candle stick and walked out of her own bedroom and down the hall to the room that her two younger brothers's shared. John was the youngest, only seven years old and Mathew was 13 years old and already dreaming about heading off to the war to join in on the fight against the crown of England. Daisey peaked into the bed room and saw John crawl into bed with his older brother, stirring him slightly as he settled back into the bed. Daisey then closed the door and walked further down the hall to an empty bedroom. The bed was made the sheets were clean and tucked neatly under the mattress on all sides except for where the pillows lay at the head of the bed. Daisey leaned against the door frame as a tear slipped down her cheek. It had already been a year since their mother had died from an illness and four since their father went off to join in the war efforts. Even though they received a letter from him every once in a while. It was still hard for her to run the farm and take care of her two younger siblings on her own. But times were hard and she just thanked the good Lord that she and her brother had yet to see a sea of red coats swarm onto their front yard like the so many stories that she had heard from her neighbors. And she hoped that is would say that way, her little brother john was already afraid of the sound of cannon fire and gun shots, she didn't was him to experience the horror of seeing a man blown apart by a cannon ball.
Daisey then slowly shut the door of the empty room and walked back down the dark and empty hall back towards her bed room. It was already late and she would have to get up early in the morning to help the servants make breakfast and to get started on the many daily tasks of running a small farm.
Daisey slipped into her room and shut the door behind her and climbed into bed as she set the candle stick on the bed side table. Once she was comfortable in her sheets, she blew out the flame and settled into a steady sleep, she was sure that she would be awakened by her little brother john at least once in the night but she was used to it now, the boy was easy to scare and his fears had only gotten stronger since mother had died. It was just the way that things were now.
Modern Day, Amity Park, Casper High, Three days till spring break
"Alright class, I'm giving you an assignment to take with you over the week long break…"
The new history teacher said as he received groans from around the classroom, he also noticed a few of the student's heads hit the desk. But Jack Vessalius didn't really mind, in a way it amused him at how the students hated the idea of home work over spring break or any break for that matter. The emerald eyed young man who appeared to be in his mid twenty's picked up a clip board from his desk and leaned against it as he flipped through the papers attached to it as he slung his long braided hair over his shoulder, hearing it land on the desk behind him with a soft thump as gravity did its ungraceful job on his hair.
"Now I have assigned you partners for this history assignment and what you and your partner must study on."
Jack began as his students looked at him broadly and noticed a few that jumped on the task of taking notes as if it was their duty to or else all hell would break loose.
"Ms. Paulina and Ms. Valerie, you two will be doing an assignment on the Battle of Gettysburg… Mr. Kuan and Mr. Tucker, you will be doing an assignment on General Washington, aka the First President of the United States."
Jack added quickly as he noticed the Asian boy slowly raise his hand as the green eyed African American boy cupped his face in his hands and shook his head as a few chuckles filtered around the classroom. Jack then gave out a sigh as he let the class calm down on its own.
"Mr. Danny and Mr. Dash, you two will be looking into the lives of the everyday people of the revolutionary war. This means that you two will HAVE to work together…"
The green eyed teacher stressed as he saw Danny Fenton jump and straighten up in his seat like a board and Dash Baxter silently pound his fist into his palm threateningly at the other boy sitting a few desks behind him. The tall blond shook his head at this and continued down his list.
"Ms. Samantha-"
"It's Sam!"
A raven haired girl called from her desk as she crossed her arms sending Jack daggers with her purple eyes as the teacher gave her an apologetic look.
"Excuse me, Ms. bSam/b and Ms. Star, will be looking into the assignation Abraham Lincoln-"
Jack was interrupted by the school bell as he glanced up to look at the door in response to its sound. He started to hear the rustling of his students gathering their bags and other belongings as he set his clip board on his desk.
"Now remember to read chapters 3-5 in your texts books tonight because there bwill be/b a pop quiz on it tomorrow!"
Jack called after his students as a few of them scurried out of the classroom in order to leave the school's campus as quickly as humanly possible. Jack then slipped back behind his desk and took a seat in the chair and started to grade last night's homework as the rest of the class filtered out of the cubby sized room, yet however that didn't stop a shadow from hovering over his desk. Jack looked up to see the frail figure of Danny Fenton giving his a worried look.
"May I help you Mr. Fenton?"
Jack asked as Danny gave him a sharp nod.
"Uh…Yeah…could it be possible that I change partners with Kuan?"
Danny asked with a nervous tone to his voice as Jack gave out a tired groan as he leaned back in his chair, hearing the springs in is squeak as he did so.
"And hinder both Kuan's and Dash's grades? I'm sorry Danny but I can't do that."
Jack replied as Danny gave him a glare that the long haired blond shook off quickly due to his weariness.
"Is it because they are foot ball players? If so that's not cool!"
Danny objected as Jack rolled his chair up to his desk with another sigh.
"Yes, and I agree, the foot ball players at this school have way too much power and it influences the student hierarchy…"
Jack started as he examined the surprised look on his student's face as he continued.
"But this was put upon me by not only the foot ball coach but also the principal and Vice Principal…There is nothing that I could have done to begin with Danny so please, it's just one assignment, and one of the more easiest in the class. I'm sure that you and Mr. Baxter can manage."
Jack told him.
"Yeah…but one problem…"
Danny said as he as he emphasized the number one with his index finger.
"And what would that be?"
Jack asked unamused as he put most of his weight on his fore arms that now rested on his desk.
"I'm going to North Carolina this Spring Break…."
"Your older sister made me well aware of that earlier this week Danny…"
Jack told him bluntly as Danny blinked at him.
"Now have a nice rest of your day Mr. Fenton, and remember, read chapters 3-5, there is a pop quiz of it tomorrow."
Jack told the raven haired boy with blue eyes as he pushed the teen out of the empty classroom with his words , he had papers to grade and a quiz to put together, and wanted to get at least half of it done by five o'clock, and Danny had just wasted fifteen minutes of his time…
