Medallion
Main Characters: Danny, Clockwork
Genre: Suspense/Drama
Danny lay on his bed gazing up at the ceiling and at the medallion he held in his hand. He traced a finger over the stylized CW thinking about the time when Clockwork had given it to him. The Master of Time never told Danny why he was being give one of his time medallions to keep; as far as Danny knew, Clockwork never gave his medallions to someone to keep. He always took them back after he unfroze time but, after the Dan incident, he didn't with Danny. He let Danny keep the medallion and made it so that only Danny and those he trusted with his life could see it.
Yet, he never explained why.
Danny sighed. He should have expected that. Clockwork never explained himself and if he did then it was through cryptic messages that Danny rarely, if ever, understood. When Danny had asked about it, Clockwork only smiled that mysterious smile of his and said, "You will understand in time."
That was usually the Master of Time's answer if Danny wasn't supposed to know the actual answer.
He then told Danny to keep the medallion with him at all times. He said that they were the only ones who could remove it even if others could see it.
Eventually, Danny let the medallion fall back to his chest and sat up. He had been lying in bed for the last hour since he woke up and he knew he would have to get up eventually to get ready for school. He was also a little surprised that no ghosts attacked during the night; it was odd for that to happen since ghosts never really cared about Danny's rest before.
After showering and changing, Danny made his way downstairs. His sister was already up and seated at the kitchen table and his mom, Maddie, was at the stove while his dad, Jack, was missing. Danny figured his dad was in the lab.
"Good morning, Danny," Maddie greeted her son.
"Morning," Danny said sitting down at the table.
Jazz looked at him. "You look rested," she said.
Danny smiled a little. "First time in a long time," he said accepting the plate of food his mom handed him before he began eating.
"I'll drive you to school if you want, Danny," Jazz said.
"Thanks," Danny said.
The medallion around his neck warmed a little. He frowned because that was another thing he learned about the medallion Clockwork gave him; whenever something bad was about to happen, the medallion would warm. The only thing was, Clockwork warned him that while the medallion would warn him about something bad that was about to happen, it would be up to Danny to figure out what that bad thing was.
So far, Danny didn't have much luck figuring it out before it happened though.
After he finished eating, he said bye to his parents, his dad had joined them right before he finished eating, before he and Jazz left the kitchen.
