Okay folks, this is gonna be another one of those slow chapters in this story. Basically, we're gonna take a look at Danny's teenage life as an evolved Vaxasaurian this chapter. I'm still accepting ideas for who Danny fights first. Although, I do like the idea of Danny fighting Skulker.
Disclaimer: I still don't own Danny Phantom, or Ben 10! ROLL IT!
***Fourteen Years After Hatching…***
It was the first day of the school year in Amity Park, and it was still plenty early in the morning at about 5:30am. Eastern standard time. And in the Fenton family home, Maddie was making her way to her son's room to wake him up, knowing that while he may be a light sleeper he still needs a bit of help getting up this early. She made her way to her son's room, glad that the house was built to handle a lot of extra weight. Cracking the door to her son's room open, she looked inside to see that Danny was still sleeping.
The boy has really grown since he first hatched as proven by the massive beast curled up under the blanket. As far as Evolved Vaxasaurians go, Danny isn't yet full grown. But he's still a giant compared to humans, being a good twelve feet tall. The studs on his back and shoulders have also grown and sharpened to their full length, and his nose horn has also gotten a bit longer and sharper. He's also gotten much more masculine than anyone expected, but that's normal for his species.
Knowing that her son wasn't a morning person made Maddie a little apprehensive about waking him up, but she knew that he started high school today and wanted him to make a good impression. So she walked over to her son's bed, and gently rubbed his back to wake him up.
"Danny, it's time. Time to wake up." Maddie whispered.
Danny groaned a bit, but opened his eyes regardless of whether he wanted to wake up or not. He yawned in a way that sounded more like a snort from a Styracosaurus, before getting up and stretching to get the kinks out of his joints.
"Ugh, what day is it?" Danny asked, tiredness evident in his voice.
"It's your first day of high school, Danny. Now come on, we gotta get you ready!" Maddie said, reminding her son of what was happening.
Now THAT woke the teenage alien up. He immediately walked over to his closet and pulled out a bulky school bag.
"Good thing I packed my school supplies earlier this week." Danny said as he slung his bag over his shoulder.
The two walked downstairs so everyone else could finish getting ready for the day. After all, Jazz is always ready when it comes to learning, and would never even DREAM of being late on the first day of the school year. Like the saying goes, "the early bird catches the peanut". I think.
Oh well, the point is, it was the start of what was sure to be a whole new adventure for our young Vaxasaurian.
A Morning in the Life of a Teenage Alien
As Danny and his mother walked through the streets of Amity Park, the young alien could practically feel all of the stares being directed at him. It was no secret that the humans of Amity Park are wary of his presence. I mean, you would be too if a giant humanoid dinosaur was walking around your town. But since Danny was on the receiving end of those stares, he was beginning to feel very self conscious at this point.
Something that Maddie picked up right away.
"Are you okay, Danny?" she asked.
"No, I'm not. I'm worried, mom. What if I end up labeled as a freak at school? What if I lash out because of people taunting me and end up severely hurting someone?" Danny asked, voicing his concerns.
This caused Maddie to stop in her tracks. Of course Danny would be self conscious of his species due to the looks people were giving him, but she had no idea what she would do if her son was shunned by his peers. But, she decided that they would just take things one step at a time.
"Well, if it comes to that, just don't listen to them. You may not be a human, but you have more heart than any other human I've met in my lifetime!" Maddie said. "Don't worry about what others think, Danny. Just be yourself, and you'll find out who your real friends are."
Danny smiled as his mother's words helped to ease his worries. At least now he knew that he might be able to find out who his real friends are. Regardless of what species they might be.
After about fifteen more minutes of walking, Danny and Maddie finally made it to Casper High School. Admittedly, Danny was still pretty nervous about this, but he was willing to give it a chance for his mother.
"I'll be by when school lets out to pick you up. Just be yourself, try your hardest in class, and try not to have an outburst." Maddie said.
Danny just nodded in response. Taking one last deep breath, the evolved Vaxasaurian started for the building. But he was completely unaware of a pair of eyes staring at him.
Once inside, Danny was immediately given a lot of space due to most of the students being wary of him. But this didn't stop Danny from keeping his head held high and just getting to his first class without problems. When he got to English class, Danny was greeted by a bald, overweight human male with a beard.
"Excuse me, is this Mr. Lancer's class? I'm new here and don't yet know my way around." Danny asked.
"Ah, yes. You're that special case student I was told about." the man said. "Yes, you're in the right place. I'm mister Lancer, and I will be your English teacher for this year. Just go ahead and take a seat anywhere while you wait for the rest of the class to arrive."
"Yes sir. Thank you, sir." Danny said in appreciation.
The young Vaxasaurian took a seat at a desk near the back of the class, but decided not to use a chair. It probably wouldn't be able to support his weight anyway. Wordlessly, Danny took out a novel from his favorite book series, and began to read while he waited for the rest of the class.
Okay, I've scraped the idea of a Power Rangers Jungle Fury/Star Wars: The Clone Wars crossover and instead think that I should do one between Danny Phantom and Star Wars: The Clone Wars. Here's the summary of what I have in mind.
Born the child of Jedi Consular Madeline Andreas and Jedi Guardian Jackson Fenton, young Daniel James Fenton has always been a carefree child with a highly protective streak. But when he is found to be Force Sensitive after saving his parents from a very powerful Sith Lord, how will things change when he is offered to join the Jedi Order? With the Clone Wars on the rise, how will this young Jedi change the course of events in the Star Wars universe?
Let me know if you think writing this story would be a good idea.
