Hello Everyone! This is my first fanfic, so i would like for all of you to read and review! ive been wanting to create this for a while now, and now, the first chapter is done! Of course, not all the chapters are going to be this short. I'll try to update every two weeks, and maybe even every week, but you'll just have to wait and see.
Disclaimer: I don't own Danny Phantom or Trollhunters; those shows belong to the respective owners.
Now, on with the story!
Danny had been content with how his life had played out. Of course, he still struggled with constant ghost attacks and his parents wacky way of living, but it had all become normal for him. He, his two best friends, and his older sister, Jazz, have become closer as the months rolled by, being able to take down every threat that came their way. He was used to it. All was as it should be, a quote he got from Clockwork, the Ghost of Time.
School was getting harder by the day, leaving Danny and his friends with a junk load of homework each night. It didn't help that Danny had to fight ghosts when they attacked during the classes.
Everything was expected.
Though what he didn't expect was a school exchange.
Mr. Lancer, the English teacher, had organized it all, with help from the Principal of Casper High, the school Danny went to, and the acting one from a high school in some other remote place. In the gymnasium, he had announced to the faculty and students that the principals of Casper High and Arcadia Oaks High have agreed to host a student exchange for a couple of weeks. Danny, at first, was not pleased with the announcement, but soon realized that he might not be going. After all, only about a handful of students from each grade were switching. Mr. Lancer had said that the list of students who would be switching schools would be posted the next day. So Danny had to just wait and see.
The next day, Danny had rushed to school early to be able to see the list before everyone else crowded around. He didn't have much luck with that. At the end of the hallway, there were students all crowding the list, including his best friends, Sam and Tucker. Calling their names, he joined them in the crowd of bustling students.
"So, you finally decided to show up early. This must be a new record! Mot of the time we don't see you until after first period." Sam joked, pulling Danny into the swarm. Danny laughed nervously.
"Don't get used to it," Danny replied, wiggling out of Sams's iron-like grip. "I'm only here to see the list. Honestly, with my luck, I expect my name to be on the top of it. Did you guys see it yet?"
Tucker shook his head.
"No not yet. It's hopeless! Even Dash woke up early to read it!" Tucker complained loudly, getting a few looks from the students around them. Tucker huffed in displeasure as Sam and Danny roll their eyes. Sam spoke up.
"If you sit here whining about it you'll never see it! Come on!" Sam replied hastily. She grabbed both of the boys' shirts by the collar and threw them forward, causing Danny to stumble into Paulina, who muttered, 'loser', under her breath and sashayed away.
"Sam! What you'd do that for?" Tucker whined to the wind, not entirely sure where Sam was.
"Divide and conquer, Tuck! Divide and conquer!" Sam yelled, smugness evident in her voice. Sam then yelled, "Hey, look! There is a taco truck pulling up outside the school!" And ran down the hallway, away from the list. The students cheered and gladly followed, leaving Danny and Tucker alone with the sheet of paper. Danny took this as an opportunity to read it, as the students would sure be clamoring back after realizing they've been duped.
He and Tucker stumbled over to the sheet of paper, excited and worried at the same time. Both of them skimmed over the text, their faces falling in the process. Tucker's name was not on there, but Danny's was.
"Ugh! Just my luck!" Danny yelled, punching the list. The tape holding it up ripped and the thin sheet fluttered to the floor. Tucker picked it up, reading each name one by one.
"Sorry dude," Tucker said, flipping the list over so that he could read it. "Sam, Jazz and I are not on here. Looks like your going alone to Arcadia Oaks High."
Ripping the sheet from Tucker's hands, Danny 8quickly read through the rest of the list, about three times, before he concluded that he knew nobody that was going with him, so at Arcadia Oaks High, he would be all alone.
Looks like he's going to Arcadia.
Like a flash of lightning, worry flooded his mind. Who will keep the ghosts at bay? Who is going to protect the town? Will people finally realize he and his ghostly alter-ego, Danny Phantom, are one and the same?
Danny pushed those thoughts out of his mind, not wanting to waste his thinking ability before school started. His mind seemed to wander back to the high school he was transferring to. Arcadia Oaks High? It sounds normal enough, but is it? Trouble seemed to follow him wherever he went, even the bathroom.
Well, he just will have to wait and see.
