Time for some Clockwork love (ha, a pun.) I read the fic by DPcrazy called "Turn Back the Clock" I really liked it, but I want Clockwork to be Clockwork. So for being similar, well just one thing really. Hope you all enjoy (I think this is my catch phase). Oh, takes place after Phantom Planet.
Disclaimer: I don't own Danny Phantom or Clockwork. I do own two clocks, one watch and a cellphone that can tell time.
Only Time will Tell
Chapter One
"Hey. Hey kid. Wake up. What are you doing here?" An office asked the teen. This said teen was lying on his stomach with his head tilted sideways, slowly stirring.
"What? Oh officer, what are you doing here?" The teen stood up, dusting the dirt off of his purple hoodie. He then pulled the hood up over his aqua hair, leaving only a few to be shown. His pale face looked calm, even though he was taking to an officer.
"Trying to wake up a teen that is asleep in the park at eight in the morning. Care to explain?" the officer said as he looked at the teen.
"Oh, I came to watch the sunrise. I guess I fell asleep instead. I'm sorry about that sir. I'll go home now." And with that the teen turned and started walking toward town, with only one place in mind: Fenton Works, home of Maddie and Jack Fenton, but also two members of Team Phantom: Danny and Jazz Fenton.
"I know that Daniel is a late sleeper, but this is important. The balance has been tampered with. I need his help to restore it." The teen mumbled as he walked down the street, missing the feeling of having no weight. "I just hope that I get there in time."
Soon he was standing in front of Fenton Works, getting ready to knock on the door. Timing had always been on his side, but not now. Which was why he had a full on collision with a black hair boy as he tried to run out the door.
"Hey, watch were you're going! And what's with your clothes?" Danny looked at the teen he ran into. He was about Danny's age; just a little over, about 18, and just a little taller than him as well. The teen was wearing a purple hoodie with the hood pulled up, covering up most of his aqua hair. He had a large scar running across his left eye, which were a ghostly shade of green. He was very pale as well. Along with the hoodie, he was wearing a pair of blue jeans, with a pocket watch attached to the belt. He also wore purple tennis shoes. What confused Danny was the amount of watches on the teen's arms. There was at least five on each arm, all of them on the same time. He also felt like he knew the teen from somewhere.
"Sorry, but do I know you?" Danny said after staring at the teen for a few minute.
"I hope you know me Daniel." The teen said as he rubbed his head.
"Why are you calling me Daniel? Only two people call me that; one is in space, the other in the Ghost Zone. Do you want to come inside?" Danny said as he moved out of the doorway to let the teen in.
"I need to correct your statement there Daniel. One is in space; the other is right in front of you." The teen said as he walked up to Danny's room.
"What do you mean? Clockwork is in the Ghost Zone, and you're human." Danny said to him as he followed him upstairs.
"So close Daniel, so close." The teen then faced Danny. "I am Clockwork. And I need your help."
Danny just looked at him with disbelief.
Cliffhanger! Hope you all enjoyed. This will work on the same updating system as "Who 'toonnapped Danny Fenton?" which is to say anytime I want to update, I do. I also don't know what Clockwork would call Danny, but it sounds like he would call him Daniel. Until the next chapter, I'm out. Amby
