Disclaimer: Man I wish I owned this show. But I don't.
Author's note: To start off: first, my opinion on the "blue" vapor that comes out of Danny's mouth when a ghost is around is this: I don't think that it's blue. I love to study a lot about ghost and paranormal. I watch Weird Travels and tuned in to the Buried secrets of M. Night. I've also read enough stories on actual accounts to think his "ghost sense" is explainable. As many people know, when someone or something is dead they tend to loose body heat because their body is unable to retain it. Well if you're a ghost, you still have no heat. So you're fairly cold. You're so cold that you make the area around you cold. Sometimes you're able to see your own breath. In the episode w/ Mrs. Spectra, she turned up the A/C. She obviously did her homework. She wouldn't have wanted anyone to become suspicious of the coldness she was giving off. So turning up than air conditioning seemed the best solution. Even Danny himself said so:"I only thought that I was seeing my breath, that it was cold. But maybe that was my ghost sense..." and so on. Also with ghost, it's truly mind over matter. You can only see a ghost with your mind, not your eyes. Yes, it's confusing. Danny's mind automatically knows that there's a ghost near. His own body temperature drops mentally, so know one else can feel it. He feels cold which causes him to see his breath. So that's my theory. I don't mean to bore you. That's just my opinion. On with the fic!
Chapter 1 'Ordinary day'
As he ran down the long, dark corridor, he saw a welcoming white light. But along with the light was a person. A teenage girl to be specific. She had black hair and wore a red shirt and a long brown skirt. She lingered there for what felt like a second… then she disappeared. As she disappeared, a faint ringing was drawing closer, and closer…
Like a reflex, Danny's hand went slamming on the alarm that sat on his bed side table. "Another morning, another cruddy day of school", Danny said as he slowly inched his way out of bed to his dresser. School was being hard on him as more work was being packed on. There also seemed to be more ghosts. Balancing school, ghosts, and hiding then from his family was becoming a full time job. He was slowly loosing energy. But with the challenges up ahead, he'd be begging to do all of this.
He pulled on his clothe and put on his shoes, and made his way downstairs.
He went into the kitchen where his dad was working on something, his sister was reading, and his mom was writing something. But he didn't care. He walked to the fridge, opened it, and peered inside. At that moment, he heard the voice he least wanted to hear at that moment. "Hey Danny! Come check out what I just invented! It's a pair of handcuffs that a ghost can't get out of. Pretty clever, eh?"
"Sure dad", he responded.
He wasn't amazed. He already had seen those in the ghost zone, and really didn't want to see them. Seeing nothing good to eat (really noting at all to eat) he closed the refrigerator.
"We have no food", Danny said as he picked up his backpack. He would pick something up later on at school.
"Mom! You said you went grocery shopping yesterday!" said Jazz, putting her book down.
"Well, I was…" Maddie said putting her pencil down
"What do you mean 'was'?"
"Well on my way out, I remembered something else I had to do, and then I just forgot. I'm sorry."
Danny didn't want to stay for the show, so he slowly walked out without being noticed
After cautiously leaving the house, he met up with Sam and Tucker at the front of the school.
"What happened today? You look like you had no sleep last night" Tuck said to Danny as they walked to their first class (English).
"I almost didn't. There were so many ghost last night I was lucky to get 5 hours of sleep."
"Cheer up Danny, all you need to do-". Sam was cut off by Mr. Lancer entering the room.
"All right, get in your seats. I have an announcement to make" he said. Everyone slowly made their way in their seats and the room slowly became quiet.
"Thank you. Well, we have a new student. She's from Japan and I'm not sure if she speaks English. So please be kind to her."
The door opened and a girl came walking in.
She was right height, with black hair down to her waist, yet she also wore her hair in a bun (like that - q). She wore a dark, red, long sleeved shirt, but the right sleeve was missing. She wore a brown skirt that went down to her knees. But her long black boots also went to her knees. Her eyes looked silver but with a hint of brown. She had a scar running across from her nose to her left ear. She was very pretty, but looked depressed.
"Class, this is Ruri Ama. You may take the seat over there."
Ruri took the seat that was behind Sam and on the left of Danny.
"Now as I was saying yesterday…"
As Mr. Lancer started lecturing about yesterday's lecture, Danny couldn't help but stare at the new student. There was something about her. She looked familiar, but he didn't know where he could possibly have seen her. As Mr. Lancer continued droning on, Danny slightly looked at the paper Ruri was writing on. He looked at the paper to see a picture of a girl sitting on the grass and staring at the stars. The picture was very good, almost realistic.
As if she sensed it, she looked up at him. Danny's eyes immediately darted to the front of the class. As if she wasn't strange enough. But the way she was. The way she looked. She looked worse than he did. But more lost. And sad…

Sorry. Well, this is chapter one. Hope you like it. For one thing, it's a piece of crap. So yeah. If you like it, I would like to hear from you. If you don't like it, I still would like to hear from you to tell me ideas. I'd like to thank my BF Anna for the title. Signing off! The secret that should have been kept.
