Guys, I am sorry it took so long to write this, but I normally write these while listening to music. The point is that I have been watching The Voice with my GF and have found an artist that sings the songs I grew up to in such a way that every time I listen to him, I get distracted from what I am trying to think of or tear up from how amazing his voice is. The singer is Laith Al-Saadi and I recommend that everyone who likes Rock N' Roll checks out the video titled Laith Al-Saadi Hotel California as its amazing. I would also like to see if anyone can guess my age or favorite Genre of music, maybe gender, anyone who gets close will get a mention next chapter.

Monday Morning

Danny had set his alarm to go off just early enough that he could get to school right as the pep rally started so as to avoid having to deal with Sam and her extensive questioning that she no doubt had planned.

He set out as soon as he was dressed in his new Rock Revival's that his parents bought him yesterday, along with some new jeans he had his Eagles (the band) shirt on with a leather jacket over it and some black hiking boots.

Danny ran up to the doors of the school right before the bell rang and made his way to the music room to begin preparing for his performance. When he arrived he learned that his music teacher would be retiring early this year rather than at the end of the year.

He was taken aback when the principle walked in with a young woman whom he swore he recognized. "Danny, this is Ms. Macali and she will be taking over for Ms. Schumacher after this week is over." The principle said.

Then both of the older teachers left the room to allow Danny to practice and Ms. Macali to get used to the room and prepare for her new job. "So should I call you Ms. Macali or Ember, or maybe even sweetheart." Danny joked.

"Damn, you are to attentive babypop how did you figure it out that fast?" Ember asked

"Well the last name was a dead giveaway, I mean come on at least chose a good last name that's not just yours with the letters scrambled." Danny said quite satisfied with himself.

"I just wanted to be close to you, and I remember you saying that you had to perform for your school today so I wanted to be like Kitty and come watch you be awesome." Ember said.

"You could have just done what Kitty is going to do." Danny said laughing at his girlfriend's new responsibility.

Danny then found his favorite corner of the music room and began practicing for his first song in a crowd of people who hated him. After a half-hour his music came and grabbed him for the pep rally.

Cut to Gymnasium

Danny sat in the front row of the music seats awaiting his named to be called. "And now students we have a very talented young man, whom up until recently has remained under our radar even though I believe him to be one of the best guitarist out there today. So give a warm round of applause to Danny Fenton." The music teacher announced.

"Well thanks for that warm introduction but I doubt I have that much talent, let's just see if I can remain calm." Danny said as he walked toward the mic stand.

"Now as some of you may be wondering, yes I can play guitar and have been playing since I was twelve but no-one knew until last week when I tried out for the school band." Danny finished.

"Just play Fentonio, we don't want your life story even if you are Phantom." Dash spit out full of hate. Thinking back, you would think that Dash would adore Danny since he was actually everyone's hero but they all went back to their lives as if nobody had ever found out.

Danny then took a few moments to make sure Kitty and Ember were comfortable in their seats before he was ready to play. "This song has held a very special meaning to me for a very long time, and some of you will understand why." Danny said right before he began strumming.

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes

No one knows what it's like
To be hated
To be fated
To telling only lies

But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience, seems to be

I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free

No one knows what it's like
To feel these feelings
Like I do
And I blame you

No one bites back as hard
On their anger
None of my pain and woe
Can show through

But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be

I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free

When my fist clenches, crack it open
Before I use it and lose my cool
When I smile, tell me some bad news
Before I laugh and act like a fool

If I swallow anything evil
Put your finger down my throat
If I shiver, please give me a blanket
Keep me warm, let me wear your coat

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes

"Thank you for allowing me to play this song without interruption." Danny said before walking off.

"Jeez, who knew Fenton could rock that song was awesome did he write that himself?" Dash, Paulina, and Star all asked simultaneously.

"God you guys are ruined by these new songs that have come out recently." Kitty yelled out forgetting that nobody knew that a ghost was near them.

"Eeeeeek, Phantom come save us from this ghost who has terrible hair by the way." Paulina screeched.

"Paulina shut the hell up she is my friend and she has a great point about today's music." Danny said before he gave Kitty a hug and asked her opinion of his song.

"Danny, I would have smacked you if you played anything different, unless you played 'Hot for Teacher'" Kitty joked as she knew what Ember did.

"Ha-ha funny, now excuse me as I have to go be interrogated." Danny said as he left.

In the Hallway

Danny was walking around waiting for Sam to find him, as all classes were canceled for the students to prepare for Homecoming.

"There you are; you have a lot of explaining to do mister." Sam said in an extremely pissed off tone.

"OK then I'll start explaining; First off nobody knew because I never thought I had any talent, second I have been friends with Kitty and Johnny since about a year ago when they helped me with something that you obviously forgot about, and no I won't talk about it right now even if I know it's not your fault I am still not comfortable around you, and lastly the concert was Johnny's gift to me for making the band. Does that cover everything?" Danny said.

"What do you mean I don't remember; wouldn't you tell me if I messed up what I did?" Sam asked being genuinely hurt and confused.

"Fine Sam, do you remember a year ago when you had those side effects from Undergrowth's powers?" Danny asked.

"Well yeah you said that I was being super crazy." Sam said as that was all Danny told her.

"Well that's not the whole truth, you attempted to do some things, and yeah it was either let you force me into an uncomfortable situation, then Johnny and Kitty saved me from you trying to rape me. After that the three of us grew closer while me and you grew apart as even though it wasn't all your fault, it came from your desire." Danny said.

"I'm sorry Danny, I didn't know but why didn't you say something earlier?" Sam asked.

"I just never felt safe around you anymore, and something inside me started drawing me towards the Ghost Zone. Clockwork says that I have to move to the Zone when I turn eighteen." Danny said.

"Is there any other options, or do your parents know?" Sam asked.

"No for both and they don't need to know because when I am eighteen I am my own person." Danny said.

He then left as he had to prepare for Valentine's Day. He had a big surprise for Ember, and she wouldn't find out early as he wouldn't even hint at it.
