Chapter 5

Hey so I'm back with another chapter I guess I just have a lot of built up anger because this chapter was intense. I'm sorry that it was such a long wait. I'm trying to get back to what i love to do so it's gonna probably take some prodding on my part. I also went back and edited each chapter for errors.

Danny walked down the hall. He was pretty sure he failed lancers quiz and his body felt like it was at war with itself. It had taken a lot but the school day had just finished and he had just finished getting ready to leave when his bag was thrown over his shoulder accidently pushing a cheerleader who had been standing uncomfortably close to him. The touch made her scream out in anger and elbow him roughly in his already broken ribs. The elbowing sent him into the lead cheerleader who quickly followed up with a low growl. "EW It touched me." Stated a platinum blonde female. Wearing a tight mini skirt and an even tighter shirt that left little to the imagination. Who quickly turned and acted as if it had hurt her just to be touched. "How dare it touch me." She spat, getting Danny to recoil slightly, "S-sorry…" He mumbled not looking her in the eyes as he turned quickly to escape. "SORRY! SORRY! How... How DARE you! Rydian!" She growled towards a large burly orange haired tan caucation with light turquoise eyes that was standing next to her talking to Kwan. "What is it Rebecca?" He asked, turning his head slightly missing the entire scene that had unfolded moments ago.

I growled a little snippy about what was about to happen. Great as if I didn't have enough problems I had to run into the stupidest issue I could have. Cheerleaders with the exception of Paulina. I'm so useless… I stated internally already booking it down the hall hearing the crashing sound of the Jock who was trying to please his "woman". Thank god Sam's not like a possessive egotistical drama queen.

I had made it into the gymnasium where I hid under the nerd table. I wish the jocks here weren't like underfed wolves in search of a fight with a weaker opponent. I sighed softly before hearing heavy breathing. He looked to his left and realized he was being watched by another nerd who he didn't know the name of. "Um… I'm gonna go as soon as…"

His voice was cut off by the shouting of a couple of people, one he realized was the Jock Rydian the other sent a shiver down his spine as he realized it was Dash. Looking back at the nerd who was glaring at him made Danny realize that since he had given dash the slip he had started targeting this other nerd. Danny gave a pleading look beggingly wanting him to just stay quiet and they would both be safe. The nerd's glare gave in and he sighed, nodding and shrugging. Letting Danny know he was safe with him. The pair sat under the table in silence. Waiting for the jocks to get tired and bored. After almost an hour they had finally given up grumbling.

The pair listened as they left. After a few more minutes of waiting Danny quickly crawled out from under the table and mumbled, "Thank you for not giving me up." The nerd sighed and climbed out too. But instead of being sympathetic he seemed agitated. He got close to Danny and growled, "Think about your actions before you run from a bully. He targets me and my friends when Dash can't beat you up. " He then sighed and dusted himself off grumbling again. "You're the worst plague on this school. You start trouble then get upset about it and hide." Danny went to interrupt him. But he was quickly blown off. "I don't want to hear it. You need to understand that no matter what your actions will always affect someone else. Just go this is the last time I will ever protect you from the jocks again." Gruffed the anime wearing shirt introvert Danny had just met. (This is not a reflection on anime folks anywhere.)

Great nowI'm the enemy of the nerd class too… Did he have to be so harsh with his words. Thought Danny grumbling softly to himself as his inner voice spoke. I told you it's only gonna get worse. Look at you. Your wrists are cut, your ribs are crushed. Even your own friends didn't show up today. No one's here for you no one cares about poor, little, insignificant Danny Fenton. "SHUT UP!" I shouted aloud into the empty void of my inner demon. "YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT ME! I-I can't just…" What give in? Of course. I don't want you to give in to me. No no no… "T-then what is it you want? Why do you plague me. Why can't you just.. Leave me in peace." I started crying as I finally reached my room. Oh, Now it seems I've made you cry… How about I make you feel better come now you must want peace. Just fall into my… "NO!" No.. Oh No huh fine. Keep doing it, keep quiet. Keep me bottled.

You'll never ever find peace. Never keep me… His inner demon was cut short as Danny's last thought erupted with his ghost sense. "Damn it…"

Danny shot from his window in a silvery glow as he quickly shifted to his ghost form. His green translucent eyes shifted from building to ground. He was far too sore to be in a fight. Knowing full well he wouldn't win. He shifted hoping, almost praying that it was the box ghost again.

He got grabbed from behind. The air getting knocked out of him as the quick upward motion pushed his air way closed his broken rib rattled against his lung. Pain erupting out of his chest as he heaved and fell weak before passing out.

Again I do apologize for my absence. I have updated everything in the previous chapters as well so do let me know if you see any errors.
