First thing I wanna do is remind people that this entire story is NOT to be considered part of my fake season four story line. It is the original version of the updated version which can be seen on my profile. Anything read in this story should NOT be considered part of the story line I have written, even if some elements have been carried over into the other stories.
From this point forward, you should also take into account that Danny's friendship with my OC Kim is staying just that, they are remaining friends in the updated version. Kim no longer has feelings for Danny and so therefore no romantic relationship will EVER happen between them. As much as I support DannyxOC, I'm trying to keep my stories as close to the original episodes as possible, which includes keeping Danny's relationship with Sam intact.
No elements from this chapter will EVER appear in new or updated stories.
Chapter 10- Relationship Problems:
Sometime in the middle of the night, Danny rolls around in his bed as he has a nightmare while he sleeps. The view zooms in on his head before phasing into his dream.
The world is very gloomy and sort of looks like the future world when he went forward in time and met his alternate future. Suddenly a large explosion occurs and Danny falls from the sky screaming. He crashes into the ground and looks up to see an older version of Vlad floating above him.
"I've been waiting a long time for this," Vlad said as he charged an energy attack in his hands. Just before he could fire, Danielle rams him from the side, causing Vlad to miss fire.
He crashes into the ground and looks up to see Danielle and Danny floating over him. "We've been waiting a long time for this too," Danny said as he and Danielle charged up their own energy attacks and prepared to fire on Vlad.
"Oh I'm sure you have," Vlad responded with a smirk. Then two shadowy figures appear behind Danny and Danielle and blast them away from Vlad.
They both crash into the ground and look up to see Vlad standing behind two figures that appeared to be the silhouettes of Danny and Danielle, only with silhouetted hair that seemed to move like fire and their eyes glowed bright red. All three of them grinned evilly before all three of them charged up energy attacks and fired upon the Phantom siblings.
"YAAAAAAH!" Danny screamed as he bolted upright in his bed after waking up from his nightmarish dream. "Whoa! That was one heck of a nightmare," he said to himself before lying back down in bed. He breathed heavily as if he was trying to catch his breath. "Well here's to hoping that I don't have that dream again," he said to himself before he went back to sleep.
He woke up later that morning when the sun shined through his bed room window. He leaned up in bed and yawned as he stretched out his arms and back, cracking a few bones in the process. He sniffed the air and smelled breakfast. Without even getting dressed, he phased through the floor and into the kitchen where his family was already eating.
They were all sitting at the table eating waffles that Jazz had made of course, because she was now the official breakfast maker for the household. They were all listening to Danielle as she told them about her dream from the night before.
"And then this other pirate captain by the name of Jack Sparrow rowed up to the harbor and tossed a small boy into a treasure chest, causing the skeleton curse to lift, so Barbossa's entire pirate crew returned to their human selves. They all left for the sea and that was when I woke up," Danielle finished explaining her dream.
"You really need to lay off the sweets before going to bed," Jazz suggested as she poured syrup on a pile of waffles on her plate.
"That's what I told myself right before I went back to sleep," Danielle blurted out before stuffing a whole waffle into her mouth without even cutting it up.
"Well at least your dream wasn't a nightmare," Danny informed her as he sat down at the table.
"What was yours about?" Jazz asked him.
"Some dream where Danielle and I were fighting Vlad in a bleak future and we were losing," he informed them.
"Ouch," Danielle responded to his brief summary of his dream.
A few minutes later it was time for them to go to school. Today wasn't Jazz's day to drive to school, and it certainly wasn't Danny. He had been getting better, but he still wasn't skilled enough for that kind of task. As soon as they stepped outside, Kim drove up in a 2009 Mercedes Convertible.
"GOOD LORD!" Danny said with his mouth gaping open. "How can you afford this thing!?" he asked as he examined the cars sleek wheels. "You're looking at one to two hundred grand here!"
"Well Vlad's not the only wealthy person in my family," she informed him. "My dad makes a lot of bling-bling to you know."
At that time Danielle ran out of the house. "See you later mom, I'm going over to Nicole's house," she yelled back as she waved inside before slamming the door shut. She ran down the steps and stopped when she saw Kim's car. "WHOA!" she said with a loud gasp at the sight of the convertible sitting in the street in front of their house. "Cool ride!"
"You like?" Kim asked her as she moved a pair of sunglasses from on top of her head and covered her eyes. "My father bought it for me as an early graduation present," she said as she patted the top of the steering wheel. "She's muh baby," she said as she gave the wheel a big hug, causing the horn to honk briefly.
"I still can't believe we've only got another week before we graduate," Jazz said in an excited tone. "My parents didn't get me anything this special," she added in an aggravated tone.
"What are you talking about?" Danny asked her. "We got these cool watches that have holographic assistants that appear whenever we want," he said as he lifted his arm and pointed at the device on his wrist.
"We all got those," Jazz complained as she made her way around the car and got into the passenger seat. "It's not the same unless I get something that's just mine."
Danny simply rolled his eyes before he jumped over the door and landed in the backseat of the car.
"Hey Danielle you want a ride over to Nicole's house?" Kim asked her as Danielle started to walk down the street.
"No thanks. I'll walk. It's only a short distance and I could use the exercise, I'm certainly not that lazy," she informed them before she turned into her ghost form and took off into the air and flew off towards another part of town.
"Suit yourself," Kim said as she shrugged her shoulders. She then put her car in drive and stepped on the gas pedal.
"So how fast can this thing go?" Danny asked as he leaned forwards and stuck his head between Jazz and Kim.
"I got it up to 120 on the interstate the other day," Kim said as she drove down the road with only one hand on the steering wheel and her other arm resting on the car door. "Just barely missed a cop," she said with a chuckle.
"Hey how come Ron doesn't ride with you?" Danny asked a few minutes later just as they pulled into the school parking lot.
Then to answer his question he fizzled into existence beside the car as he teleported from his home to the school. "Teleportation system," Kim answered with a grin.
"How much money does your family have!?" Danny asked in a surprises, yet frustrated tone.
"Hey sweetie!" Jazz said as she jumped out of the car and gave him a big hug. "How's your day been?" she asked after giving him a kiss.
"Well I woke up, ate breakfast and came here," he answered. Jazz giggled and kissed him again.
"Ugh, will you two get a room?" Danny said disgustingly as he got out of the car and made his way towards the school.
Throughout the day, Danny went through his usual activities. Gym, failing a math test, falling asleep in Mr. Lancer's English class, he even showed improvements when Mr. Lancer took them into the parking lot for another driving test. After their Driver's ED class, Sam and Tucker split away from Danny because they had classes that he wasn't in. Danny went one way, Tucker went another and Sam went a third way.
Sam became irritated when Paulina stepped in front of her, blocking her path to her next class. "Will you get out of my way, I have a class to go to," Sam yelled at her as she pushed her out of the way and proceeded down the hall.
"Well I guess I won't tell you a secret that Danny is keeping from you," Paulina said in a mocking tone.
Sam stopped in her tracks and looked back at Paulina. "What secret?" she asked as she became interested.
"I figure you should know that Danny has been growing a relationship with someone behind your back," Paulina said as she kept up her mocking tone.
"HA! Why should I believe you?" Sam questioned her.
"Because I know that your boyfriend has been with someone," Paulina told her. "You are aware that he has been practicing dancing with his 'sister'," she said with a little hint of sarcasm. "But what if I told you he danced with someone else that likes him a lot at the senior prom the other week?" she asked her with a cocked eyebrow.
Sam started to catch on to what Paulina was hinting at. "Why you…"she said quietly as her anger started to build. "I swear if you did what I think you did…" Sam started to warn her, but Paulina interrupted her.
"What, you think I danced with him?" she asked in a tone that said she did when she really didn't.
"YOU DID WHAT!?" Sam yelled out as her anger exploded. "I'm going to kill you!" she threatened as she started to approach Paulina who didn't even react to her advances.
"OH keep your boots on, it wasn't me that he danced with," she informed her in a plain tone as she raised her hand and pointed her palm at her to stop her from getting closer. "But someone else did," she said with an evil grin.
"Who was it?" Sam asked through gritted teeth.
"Let's just say she is a ninth degree black belt and is about to graduate," Paulina said as she rubbed the side of her neck where Kim hit her and knocked her out.
This turned on the light bulb in Sam's head. Her eyes widened and she clenched her fists tighter together. "I…am going…to kill them," she said quietly as she stomped away from Paulina.
"Oh I'm not going to miss this," Paulina said to herself as she grinned evilly and held up a video camera.
Just after the school bell rang a little while later, Danny and Tucker walked out the main entrance of the school. They both yawned because they had just woken up after a boring lecture in their history class. "Those lectures just keep getting more boring with every one that we hear," Tucker complained.
"Yah, but that's all history now," Danny responded. They both snickered at his comment when they walked up to a very anger Sam. She had her eyes and arms crossed and she was tapping her foot on the ground impatiently. "Um…what's up Sam? Why so angry?" he asked her.
"I have a bone to pick with you!" she yelled as she stomped up to Danny. She grabbed him by his shirt and got right into his face. "You went to the senior prom as Kim's date didn't you!?" she yelled.
"Whoa! Dude, did you really!?" Tucker asked him in a surprised tone.
"Who told something like that!?" Danny asked her as he started getting nervous.
"Paulina," Sam informed him. "And I know she was telling me the truth because she told me about how she attacked her and was knocked unconscious. What were you thinking? Did you not think that I would find out? Wait a minute? The other day when people were complimenting you on your dancing skills…you danced with her didn't you? I can't believe I was ever friends with you!"
Danny and Tucker were just speechless. "Uh…I'm just gunna go wait over there," Tucker said as he pointed his thumb over his shoulder. He ran away leaving a trail of dust behind him as he ran.
"How long has this been going on between you two huh!? A week? A month? For as long as you two have known each other!?" Sam yelled at him.
"We're just friends, nothing more, you can trust me!" Danny said frightfully of where this was heading.
"I thought I could trust you, but you went behind my back. I hate you!" she yelled one last final time before she turned and ran away crying into her hands.
Tucker walked up beside Danny as they watched Sam run down the road and disappear around the corner of a building. "Oh boy, this isn't good is it Tuck?" Danny asked him in a saddened tone.
"No its not," he confirmed. "You messed up big time dude."
"I don't see how I could have. I only went with Kim to that dance as a friend. I don't have any feelings towards her. She does, but I certainly don't," Danny informed him.
"Oh I believe you dude, but I don't think Sam does. You gotta do some serious damage control before your friendship with her goes down the drain," Tucker informed him.
"Any ideas on how to do that?" Danny desperately asked him in a depressed tone.
"Sorry dude, I may be a ladies' man-" he said with a grin of self gratitude, "but that's not really my area of expertise. You're on your own," he said before he turned and started to walk home. "I'll catch you later dude, and good luck with the Sam problem. You know I've got your back," he said before he turned and walked away.
"Yah, but only you do," Danny said quietly as he sat on a conveniently placed bench. "Oh, what am I gunna do?" he asked himself as he placed his face into his hands and leaned his arms on his knees. He slumped forward and thought to himself what he was going to do.
From a bush some distance away, Paulina jumped out with a video camera and ran away before Danny could see her.
As Danny continued to pout, he looked up to see Cujo jump at him. "YAAH!" he screamed as the little ghost dog tackled him off the bench. He landed on the ground and laughed as Cujo licked him in the face. "Cujo, cut it out, I'm not in the mood right now," Danny said playfully as he continued laughing as the dog kept licking him.
He finally got the dog off and stood up only to see that the leash he was wearing was retracting. He looked down the street and saw the other end of the leash coming down the sidewalk with Danielle being dragged behind it. The leash stopped retracting when the holder came into contact with the collar Cujo was wearing.
Having been holding onto the leash holder while it was retracting, Danielle was pulled along the concrete as Cujo pulled her along. She stood up and brushed herself off. "Cujo! I told you to not take off on me like that!" she scolded the little ghost dog. He whimpered after she was done yelling at him. "So how has your day been Danny?" she asked him.
"It was going great…until I think Sam dumped me," he said in a depressed tone. He slumped forward and looked down at the ground.
"She did what!?" Danielle said as she and Cujo both gasped in horror. "Oh Danny…I'm so sorry," she said sympathetically. "Did she find out about you going with Kim to the prom?" she asked him. He nodded in response. "Oh that's so sad," she said with sadness in her voice. She then walked up to him and hugged him around the waist. "The rest of us still love you…you know that right?"
"Yah, I know," he responded. "Well we should probably be getting home now shouldn't we?" he asked her as they pulled away from their hug.
"Can get a piggy back ride home?" she asked him.
"Sure," he said as he bent down so she could wrap her arms around his neck. He stood up and picked her up with him. She wrapped her legs around his stomach and he grabbed them to help support her. "Ready?" he asked her. She nodded, and with that Danny took off down the road, Danielle on his back, and Cujo in short pursuit.
