AN: Hey readers of the net, Hyphen here thanks for the R&R's means a bunch, wanted to maake my debut with a pairing not done justice. DannyxDora. I may start others and if you have requests I'll try my best. Now without further ado, here is chapter 2.
Oh, also don't own Danny Phantom, forgot that las time... hehe.
(Amity Park, Casper High, Lunch)
Danny's day had started out like any other day, being woken up early by ghosts. Fortunately for him just a few animal based ghosts had attacked throughout the day, no problem really. Even when the Box Ghost showed it was more of an annoyance than a hassle. Him shouting his classic, 'Beware!', before being immediately sucked into the Fenton Thermos.
'Honestly, how does he return so often, you'd think he had Ember's teleportation or something. And he seems to be a quick healer as well.' Danny off-handedly thought before joining his friends for lunch. He phased into an empty hallway, and after a quick scan transformed back into his human half. He turned invisible before reaching his friends and merging with his clone he always leaves behind when going to fight during class. He smiled at the stroke of genius he had when he thought of this idea. ' Now I never, physically, have to miss or skip a class, gotta make my attendance better, ya know?' he mused to himself. He caught up with them and announced his arrival to his friends that he was back.
"Hey guys I'm back." Danny announced to Sam and Tucker.
"Oh, hey Danny who was it this time?" Tucker asked, wondering what specter sent off Danny's ghost sense.
"Oh nothing major just a few mutated ghost squirrels and Ol' Boxy." Danny answered as he grabbed a burger.
"Squirrels?" Sam asked raising an eyebrow. "Mmhmm" Danny confirmed.
The gang paid for their lunch and proceeded to the outdoor eating area finding a spot under a shady oak tree. "Ah nature's splendor, always providing." Sam stated while getting into a comfortable leaning position against the tree. "Ya know its tt times like these when I'm inclined to agree with you." Tucker sided while pulling out his PDA having already inhaled his food on the walk over.
How he was able to do such a feat and not pudge up was still a mystery to Sam and Danny. Danny contributed it to running from Dash and ghosts. Whil Sam jokingly theorized Tucker had a black hole for a stomach. Danny snickered at this while Tucker shrugged it off.
Danny was about to start munching on his burger when he heard Tucker shout. He was already on the offense when he noticed Tucker had a huge grin on his face while looking at his PDA. Relaxing Danny voiced his question. "Hey Tuck, whats got you all excited? Swimsuit models need a lotion boy?" Danny joked with a grin.
Tucker glared at him, "pfft, I wi-" "DON'T finish that line." Sam warned, reminding him of a certain genie ghost. "Whoops, close one hehe, but no check this out." He exclaimed with his returned glee as he showed Danny and Sam what was on his screen.
DOOMED: UNDERWORLD ASCENCION EXPANSION PACK
THE SIGILS HAVE FADED, THE GATES OF HELL HAVE OPENED, AND NOW THE DENIZENS OF THE UNDERWORLD ARE LOOKING TO MAKE A NAME FOR THEMSELVES. EXPERIENCE EXTENSIVE GAMEPLAY AS YOUR CHARACTER, OR ITS NEW HADES VERSION. UNLOCK NEW WEAPONS AND SKILLS, EXPLORE NEW MAPS, CONQUER YOUR DEMONS. WILL YOU BRING HELL TO THE HEAVENS? OR DECIMATE ANY ENEMY IN YOUR WAY? PRE-ORDER NOW!
After examining this information Danny and Sam had grins on their faces as big as Tucker's. They all whooped and started talking at how awesome this expansion pack was gonna be.
"Dude this is gonna be epic!" Danny shouted.
"I know right, I've already signed us all up for pre-orders! I can't wait to get my hands on all those upgrades and kick butt. " Tucker said with enthusiasm.
"Ha, dream on! I'll be serving both of yours on a silver plater, especially with Kaos's Hades version!" Sam smirked knowing she would find all the hidden cheats to boost her character.
Danny and Tucker grimaced at the thought of this. Sam was already able to kick their butts now, with a character evolution who knows how easy she'd be able to wipe the net with them."What is the Hades version by the way?" Danny asked curious to know what kind of evolution it was.
"I don't know, I'm scanning the net right now for any info on it but all that's coming up is the announcement of it and ravings of how awssome it'll be. Still to early to find any reliable data, the creators must want it to be a huge suprise." Tucker explained while combing through the data flow he was pulling up. "Guess we'll just have to wait and see" he shrugged.
It was at that exact moment Danny's ghost sense went off. The chill and the blue mist alerted the group of a nearby ghost. Already searching, Danny noticed a familiar ghost he had not seen in awhile hovering down in front of them.
"DORA?!" The trio said in sync at the sight of the blonde haired ghost landing in front of them. She gave them a smile and a slight chuckle at their reactions.
"Yes, its good to see you all as well", she responded to the shocked outburst.
Danny was first to recover," Er, uh yeah, good to see you its been a while." He stated before noticing her attire and almost going back into a stunned reaction. What he saw was not a ghost, what he saw was a goddess. He couldn't help but blush while staring at her, then quickly turned awy when he reaized he was. Dora smiled inwardly as she saw this going on, thinking she must have gave him a good view.
Tucker and Sam came out of it shortly afterwards and grinned, knkwing this was one of the ghosts they were actually on good terms with. "Hey Dora, its good to see you. How have you and your realm been? Sam aked, starting with pleasantries. "Oh I have been doing quite well actually and my realm is adjusting quite well actually." She responded, leaving out the part of how she is on a short vacation for a later conversation with Danny alone.
Tuck then also noticed how well she looked and thought of trying his luck knowing she had previously been interested in him. "Hej princino, wanna eliros cinokte?" he asked in fluent Esperanto hoping to impress here. Dora smiled at the attempt but rejected the invitation, letting Tucker down a bit. Sam and Danny patted him on the back for the effort, while Danny smiled that she didn't accept.
"So what brings you to the land of the livng?" Sam asked, wondering why Dora had come.
"I had a lull in my royal duties and figured I might come and see Sir Daniel and ask to, how you say 'hang out'." She explained earning a grin from Danny and a slight scowl from Sam. "Well I have no reason to say no, though it will have to wait until school is over. As if to reinforce the statement the warning bell signaling the end of lunch was near rang out loud. The trio groaned as they had to go back to class soon.
"See?" Danny said.
"I see no problem with this, I shall just accompany you to your academics." Dora said nonchalantly, as if their was no problem with the idea at all. Danny processing what she said came up with yet again no reason to deny her proposal. "Er, yeah, I suppose you could. I mean you'd either have to be intangible until school is over, or just wait until the teacher starts their lecture. Most don't pay too much attention to the students when they begin,especially to us kids in the back. He pointed out. Dora smiled at finding Danny had no qualms with her being around.
As they made their way back to the school building they had an all too familiar, albeit annoying, voice shout to get their attention. "Hey Fenturd!" Sure enough strolling up to them was the blonde haired school bully Dash Baxter. He stopped short a few feet away still towering over them sporting his signature cocky smirk. "So who is this hot babe and why is she hanging with you losers." He sneered, trying to assert his supposed superiority over the gang. "Go away Dash! We don't feel like dealing with you right now." Danny fumed, obviously annoyed at the jocks presence and his interest in Dora. Dash however ignored this and and cornered Dora against the wall, "Hey their hottie, what say you ditch the freak parade and come hang with the King of Casper High. I promise not to disappoint." He flirted flashing that cocky smile of his.
Danny not liking this situation of Dash hitting on his Dora... 'whoa wait my Dora? I mean sure she is probably the most stunning females I've seen human or ghost. But she isn't mine, I mean I wouldn't mind if she was. Er, wait, back to the situation at hand...'
Snapping out of his thoughts, he proceeded to distance Dora from Dash, only for said female to speak up stopping in his tracks. "King?! Ha, don't make me laugh. You obviously aren't fit to run anything more than your mouth. Besides, I already have a someone to hang with and he is much more of a king than you.", Dora retorted, gazing at Danny with a soft expression at the last statement making him blush. Dash however did not like the insult or being told Fenton was better than him, making his temper flare up. "Why you little...", he started as he reached to grab Dora. She saw this coming and dodged it getting on his inside, delivering a swift kick to where the sun don't shine.
Dash yelped instantly grabbing his crotch while falling to the ground faster than a sack of potatoes. "You would think a 'king' would know how to protect his 'family jewels'.", Dora taunted satisfied of her action. The trio chuckled slightly at this, before noticing more jocks on the way. Danny grabbed Dora by the hand leading her quickly inside to the next class, luckily he didn't need to stop at his locker. She was surprised at the sudden contact but didn't shy away, remembering to go invisible to avoid any unwanted attwntion. The next few classes went by faster for Danny because he spent most of the time passing notes to Dora and playing a few paper games with her. He thoroughly enjoyed this time he spent with her, and she reciprocated the feeling, unbeknownst to each other.
(After school, Nasty Burger)
The trio had made their way to their favorite restraunt/ hangout, after quickly avoiding a prowling Dash along the way they slid into their booth, food trays in hand, and let out a sigh of relief. "Ahh, that was a close one. Invisibility really is one of the perks of being part ghost." Danny said, referring to their escape plan. "No doubt, dude we so wouldn't have survived a beating from Dash without it" Tucker agreed tearing through the meal he ordered. Danny then noticed Dora just staring at her meal apprehensively as if it was poisonous.
"Hey Dora something the matter?" He asked concerned for the ghost princess.
Dora turned to him and frowned,"It's not gonna attack is it?" They all gave her a strange, confused look. "When I came through the portal I noticed your parents battling burgers with what looked like small links, thats not common is it?" She elaborated. The group all burst into laughter, knowing that her fear was nothing to worry about. Her frowned deepened at this smacking Danny on the shoulder she demanded to know what was so funny.
Wiping a tear from his eye he tried to calm down enough to explain," Yeah it...haha... is a common...hahaha... occurence." Dora panicked at this ready to zap her food into then went on to say, "Don't worry to much...aha aha whew... its only a common occurence in my kitchen when my parents cook. Not sure how but it happens.
Dora relaxed at that and took a tentative bite of her burger. Assured that her food wouldn't retaliate she dug into her food whole-heartedly, enjoying every bit of it. After their meal Sam and Tucker bade farewell to their friends, even on a Friday they still had a curfew to make. Danny and Dora waved their friends off an watche as they disappeared from sight. "So shall we go for a walk Sir Daniel?" Dora asked.
"Please Dora, were friends just Danny will do," he said. Dora smiled and nodded, "Okay then Danny." The way she said his name sent a shiver down to his core, a pleasant one he noted. They made their way down the street and through town to the park near his house. They found a bench that they took a seat in fairly close to each other, though neither minded.
"So Dora, what are you planning to do after the day is over?" Danny asked.
"Actually Danny that is something I had been meaning to ask you in private, and now that we are alone...", Dora hesitated. Danny seeing this encouraged her, "What is it? Come on you can tell me." He gave her his famous lopsided grin, which got her going. "I actually am on a vacation, and I was somewhat hoping that I could stay with you for a few days", she asked embarassed sporting a hard blush.
Danny somewhat stunned at this trying to process this information. 'Hold the phone, her stay with me? A girl? A beautiful girl might I add, just asked to stay with me?' While Danny was continuing on with his train of thoughts, Dora bbecame worried wondering if she had been too forward in asking to stay with him. "Oh, its ok I didn't mean to be a burden. I'll just go and-" "NO!" Danny panicked grabbing her arm, seeing that she would leave. "I mean..." he gulped, "If you want you can crash at my place during your vacation, I would love too have you as my guest." By the time he finished Danny had turned redder than a sun corona.
Dora coming over the initial shock grinned wide jumped at Dannyenveloping him in a deep hug. "Oh, thank you Danny! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" She gave him a kiss on his cheek lingering for a few seconds before breaking contact. Danny just stared at her wide-eyed, Dora noticing this realized her actions and started rambling. " I'msorryIdidn'tmeantodothatIwasjustsohappytohearyousaidyesand-" she never got to finish her ramble as Danny leaned in and kissed her cheek effectively silencing her. He smiled at her and said, "It's ok I get it."
Dora gave him a warm smile, feeling thewarmth of his kiss still on her cheek. Thank you." Danny nodded, stood up, and extended his hand, "come on lets get going home." Dora took his hand and hand in hand they left the park to Fentonworks, wondering what this weekend might hold.
