"Alright alright mom I'm up" Danny called from inside his bedroom not moving from where he laid on his bed
Danny Fenton was your average fifteen year old boy. He lived in a pleasant home in the city of Amity Park. He was the youngest of two children he an older sister Jazz. His parents Maddie and jack Fenton. There were some more abnormal points to his life like the fact that his parents hunted ghost's for a living or the fact that he himself was half ghost. But this was everyday stuff for Daniel or Danny as he preferred being called.
"Rise and shine honey" Said Sam's mom as she pulled the covers of her daughter and whipping the curtains in her bedroom open to allow a very large amount of unwanted sunlight into Sam's cavern of a bedroom.
Samantha Manson was your average fifteen year old girl. She lived in a loving home an only child to her two parent's Erick and Julie Manson. The only thing that made Sam stand out to the average person was her very dark appearance. Sam was a Goth and to her it was not just the clothing or the music it was her life. She had Ebony hair that was unmistakable against her quite pale skin her clothes were black always accented with greens and purple's but this was just normal for Samantha or Sam as she went by.
Danny and Sam's morning routine were not very different. Wake up bathe eat then off to school. Even though they were two very different people living two completely different lives they shared one thing in common. Neither one of them knew that this very day October 27 would be the beginning to the rest of their lives.
Danny arrived at school with only moment's to spare. He rushed to his locker stuffing all of his extra things into it hastily and rushed off to his first class History. But already in mid sprint it did him no good he heard the bell signaling the start of class echo throughout the school before he was even halfway to his destination
"I am sorry I'm late Mr. Brewer" Danny said huffily as he nearly collapsed walking through the door to his history class.
"Hmmm I dare say you look like the living dead my dear boy your fine take your seat" Mr. Brewer said smiling gently toward Danny.
Danny recomposed himself and walked toward his seat near the far left side in the front. Walking to his seat he heard someone say "sleep in a little this morning". Danny paused and turned to see the person how was talking was Sam. "A little" Danny said smiling politely as he sat down.
"Alright like I was saying yesterday today I have a special assignment for you all-" Mr. Brewer paused to open a book on his desk and he continued "- as I am sure you all know Amity park has a very colorful history to it like the great steel strike of 1923 or the Haroldson murders over on the west side of town back in the 50's. I want you all to go home tonight and do a little research and write me out a report no less than three pages on an event that took place in Amity Park in the last 25 years."
Most of the class didn't look too happy at this except for Danny Sam and a small handful of other student's.
"Ok so now how's about we head up to the library and you can begin your research now" Mr. Brewer said ushering the class up and out the door.
This seemed to cheer the class up a great deal there was just something about being on a computer that made school work more fun.
"So have any ideas about your paper's topic?" Sam said walking up to Danny once they were all out in the hallway on the way to the library.
"No I'm stumped ill find something on the internet though I'm sure" Danny said shrugging
"Yea same here" Sam said snickering
They walked in relative silence through the halls until they reached the library. Although Without Danny and Sam's knowledge they were being watched. As they entered the library a teenage girl peered out of a space between row's of book shelves at Sam and Danny.
They all took their seats at different computer's and began to work. They sat chattering softly while surfing the web for idea for an hour before the bell finally rang bringing history class to an end.
"Ok so I expect that report on my desk by Monday morning" Mr. Brewer said dismissing his class.
They filed out of the library in an orderly manner but returned to the chaotic styling of teenagers once in the halls.
"So did you find anything" Danny said stuffing some scribbled notes into a notebook for future reference.
"Yea I found some ideas I don't quite know yet but ill figure something out" Sam said
The rest of the school day seemed to zip by quite boringly the rest of Danny's classes seemed to be unimportant with thoughts and ideas for his report nagging at the back of his mind.
After school Danny wasted no time walking home and rushing up into his room to get on his pc. He quick logged into an instant messaging chat room to talk with Sam while he worked and he brought up another web page and quickly typed in a URL he had come across earlier that day.
Famous events of Amity Park read the home page. Danny had found a website that contained a large amount of information on events in Amity Park. One event specifically Danny had found quite interesting the 12th street murders.
On November twenty third of 1980 one Morris b. Willers who was widely believed to have been unstable came home one night to his small home on 12th street to find his daughter with 17 year old Jacob Stanson and became belligerent. According to one witness who was passing by the home she claimed to hear shouting then several gun shots. According to police reports Morris shot His own daughter Alice J. Willers Jacob and then himself. The house remains standing to this day although unoccupied since the shooting. Some local people say that can occasionally hear shouting coming from the home at night but no signs of forced entry or life at all have been discovered.
"Wow that is messed up" Danny said to himself
Getting deep into the story Danny had accidentally neglected to answer Sam when she messaged him about ten minutes before she said she had to get off to go eat.
Danny did some more digging around the web but not finding much else than what the first article told him. Getting bored with surfing the web he decided to check out the house for himself figuring some firsthand pictures would be good for his report.
Quickly grabbing his jacket and camera he left his room and hurried to the front door.
And within seconds he was outside and on his way to 12th street. It was about ten minuet walk to the house and it was already beginning to get dark out but after a few more minutes of walking he arrived at the house from the article.
It was exactly what you would expect for the sight of such a grizzly crime. The house was small only two stories with a little front yard and a moderate sized back yard that was fenced in and wildly over grown with weeds.
"I should get a closer look" Danny said to himself as he walked up to the front door.
Taking a quick look around he quickly phased through the front door and into the living room of the house. It was horrible the building which seemed to be in alright condition from outside seemed to be falling apart from the inside.
The walls were extremely dingy and extremely dirty and there was actually spray of hole in the wall next to the door that Danny connected to the story in his head figuring they must be bullet holes.
The entire house as far as he could see had barely been touched since the murders and he kept getting the feeling like he was being watched but he shrugged it off as paranoia. But just as soon as he disregarded his feelings something that was never a good sign happened. He shivered and let out a wisp of cold breath.
"Oh no" Danny said looking around franticly knowing what that meant also realizing he couldn't get into a full out fight what if someone heard him.
He saw nothing yet the room seemed to be growing much colder by the second to the point where he almost couldn't stand it his hands and feet felt as though he just went swimming in the middle of December.
"Alice!" a loud voice rang out from the far corner of the room causing Danny to jump quite startled he forced himself to look over across the room toward the noise.
Their sitting in a Moldy old dust covered armchair was a man he look gaunt and quite ghastly. His skin had a light blue color to it. His head had very little hair but what he did have was a deep shade of brown. He was wearing some form of work uniform which was splattered with blood and in his hand was a 12 gauge shotgun resting on his lap.
"Alice where are you do not ignore me when I am talking to you!" He shouted once more rising to his feet and beginning to walk in Danny's general direction.
Quickly almost without thinking Danny turned and ran in the opposite direction of the man now with a Shotgun pointed at Danny. He ran as fast as he could to a staircase that was behind him on the back wall of the room. As he began to climb he heard the gun cock and he quickly scurried avoiding the first shot the man fired.
Danny's Ears were ringing he could not hear anything and his head was buzzing. He dove into the first room on the right at the top of the stairs and shut and locked the door behind him.
He was now in a much smaller room this room was also much darker in comparison to the living room downstairs. Danny heard two more gunshots and then house fell silent.
"What is going on" Danny said gripping his chest which was pounding painfully in fear and excitement.
"I'm not really sure" a soft voice answered causing Danny to let out a small yell in fear and jump to his feet.
"Who…who is their" Danny stammered his eye's straining against the darkness he put his back to a wall near the door and searched for a light switch and when he found it he flipped it causing the room to quickly light up.
Once Danny's eyes had adjusted to the light he realized he was in someone's bedroom. There was a dresser on the wall directly in front of him and to his left was a bed on his right another door half open which lead to a closet.
"Is anyone their" Danny managed to choke out still quite frightened but trying not to let it show.
"What you mean you can't-" A small voice answered but then the voice was joined by young girl who appeared on the bed.
She looked to be about Danny's age and as far as body build went she looked a great deal like Sam. Other than that she had shoulder length purple hair and eyes of a matching shade. She was wearing a sweatshirt that fit her quite weirdly it was wide at the wrists but tight across the chest and stomach. And a pair of wide and baggy jeans
"Wait what is going on who are you" Danny said almost forgetting that he had shifted into his ghost form.
"Like I already told you I don't know what is going on" The girl said standing up off the bed and onto the floor she stood just about as tall as Danny. "And as for who I am my name is Violet" the girl finished.
Danny stood their dumbfounded for a minuet trying to wrap his mind around what was going on.
"Ok so your name is violet then maybe you could tell me who that was shooting at me downstairs'" Danny said somewhat agitated having difficulty making sense of anything that was happening.
"You mean you don't remember?" Violet said looking at him with a confused look on her face.
"Remember what … what are you talking about?" Danny shouted now feeling very angry even though he wasn't quite sure why.
Violet sighed and gestured for Danny to follow her out of the room and into the hallway which he did reluctantly. She led him into the last room on the opposite side of the hallway.
This room was much bigger and boxes were stacked all throughout the room. On a small stack on the far side of the room was a book that was lying open.
"Look here" Violet said pointing to the book
Danny looked down to see that the book was actually a photo album that had various picture of a boy and a girl which he recognized to be Violet. One picture in particular caught Danny's Eye. It was a picture of Violet and That same boy from the rest of the pictures. For a split second Danny could have sworn it was him in that picture but he quickly corrected himself before he spoke.
"Why are you showing me this stuff" Danny said looking over at Violet who seemed really annoyed.
"Still don't remember well that is fine it will hit you sooner or later" Violet said she reached down and took the picture Danny was looking at a moment before and removed it from the book she folded it in half and held it out to Danny.
Danny just looked at violet questioningly and did not take the photograph.
"Fine have it your way" Violet said she reached out her empty hand and extended one finger and tapped Danny on the forehead. He suddenly reverted to human form and fell limp on the floor. Violet took the picture and tucked it into the pocket of Danny's jeans and then picked him up.
"The fire department should be here any moment you'll be fine just remember what happened tonight don't forget ok?" Violet said with a look of demanding on her face
Just as she said this Danny's brain caught up with his body and he suddenly realized he was surrounded by fire on all sides.
"Promise me Jacob promise me you'll remember" Violet said setting Danny down in a corner of the room.
"I Promise" Danny said without even thinking or even realizing why but before he could give it any thought his vision began to fade and then everything slipped to black.
