Chapter twelve: Secrets Revealed

'-'

Danny, Sam and Tuck went to school that Monday. RI stayed at her house. She claimed that her dad wasn't home. She wanted to clean the house anyway. The newspaper was supposed to come out today. He always liked to read what happened even if he was depressed. The newspaper was free and everyone always got one, geek or popular, everyone got one without fail (o-O). The three of them usually saved trees (for Sam's sake) and got one they could share. Today as they headed to get the newspaper, everyone was staring at them, whispering to each other.

"This is kinda awkward" Danny whispered to them.

"I know!" Tuck said.

"Why do you think we're the center of attention today?" Sam asked.

"Dunno" Danny answered. They headed to the newspaper stand. The person who usually handed out the newspaper out ran at the sight of them. They found it weird, but shrugged it off. Sam picked the newspaper up for them. She took one look at the cover and froze ('o').

"Sam what's up?" Tuck asked her.

They walked up to her as she quickly shut the newspaper.

"Sam, what's in the paper?" Danny asked.

"N-n-n-nothing! Nothings in the newspaper!" she stuttered.

"Sam, give me the paper" Danny ordered.

"You're not the boss of me!" she retorted.

"Sam, give it-. " He snatched the paper of her hand and opened the wrinkled paper.

"Danny, wait!"

He froze as she did in horror. On the front cover, was his own face looking back at him with the headline that said 'Halfa Disgrace'. He was speechless. Who on earth did this?

Tuck who had been looking at the article over his shoulder, said "Holy crap! That's you!!!"

"No duh!!!" Sam yelled at him.

Danny practically saw his own life flashing before his eyes. He only dreamed of the moment that the school would know the truth of freak Danny Fenton. Now he would be picked on by everyone in school. Everyone- WAIT!! It just dawned on Danny that Jazz went to the same school as he did (as in, he knew that she went to the same school, but now it fully blew him in the head). What if she told their parents? He didn't know if he could trust her ('-'). He didn't know who he could trust anymore. He stormed off into the school (stupid Danny!).

All the eyes followed him as he stormed to his locker. He was so frustrated he couldn't remember his combination.

"Hey freak" said the last person he wanted to see. He turned to see Dash walking towards him. He shoved Danny into the locker. Danny made sure he didn't cringe in pain.

"Why don't you use you freak ghost powers to unlock your locker?!"

He walked off with his gang, all glaring at him. Danny made a run for the exit. An unsuspecting student crashed into him. Danny didn't recognize him, but the kid did.

The boy fell to his knees and shouted "Don't hurt me!!!"

"I'm not gonna-"

The boy shrieked in horror at the sound of Danny's voice. He quickly tried to get up and run away. He stumbled at first, but made a getaway. Like magic, a voice on the intercom said: "Everyone, please report to the main auditorium for an assembly. Danny Fenton, please report to the principal's office, EMEDIATLY!!!!!"

Danny felt a cold sweat on his neck. What did the principal want with him? Did he know? Only one thing was strange. The man speaking wasn't the principal. The principal had more of, a lack of better words, an old person tone. This one still had life. Should he go? He didn't know. But he had to check it out, see what was going on.

'-'

Sam and Tuck avoided being seen. After the whole ordeal with the newspaper, they weren't sure if they could bear the look of human eyes.

"What're we gonna do?" Tuck asked.

"I dunno" Sam replied. "We should be more worried about Danny. He's the one with the powers."

"True. How d'you think Danny's holdn' up?"

Sam shrugged. Both teens were stumped as to what they could do. They had no idea how they could help Danny. The entire student body knew about Danny. It couldn't get any worse (o-O).

As the school filed into the auditorium, Kelsie was in backstage, smoking.

Are you sure this will work? She asked an invisible being.

Of course, the being answered back.

Damn those humans. I don't want to do this.

You have to. Why are you such a coward right now?

You know as well as I do that we hate humans. They did this to us.

Just put them under your spell."

But how?

Process of hypnosis.

Fine. Kelsie took a deep breath, tossed her cigarette on the floor and stamped it out with her heel. She made another intake of breath and placed her hands together. A small orb appeared at her fingertips. She sent it out on stage.

'-'

The classes were getting restless until there was a blackout in the auditorium. Everyone started to scream until on of the students pointed out a ball of light. Everyone slowly started to stare at it. It finally had a hold on them.

Now.

Kelsie took a deep breath and stepped on stage.

"Dear students" she said. But it was not her voice. It belonged to someone else.

"As you read in today's news item, Danny Fenton is that filthy ghost hybrid, Danny Phantom. He is your enemy. He does not wish to help you…"

'-'

Sam and Tuck tried to make their way to the auditorium when they spotted RI, gathering up all of the newspapers.

"RI, what the heck are you doing here?!" Tuck asked her.

"I-I-I figured you might need help" she replied.

"How did you know that we would need help" Sam asked suspiciously.

"If you guys didn't bother to notice, my dad was the one who wrote that article on Danny. He didn't bother to delete it, so I saw it. That's why nothing had happened over the past few months. My father needed time to get his article and his facts straight."

"Fascinating" Tuck responded.

"So how's Danny holding up?" RI asked.

"He doesn't know what's going on or what's going to happen to him" Sam answered.

"Poor guy" Tuck said.

There was some awkward silence until RI's head perked up.

"What's wrong RI?" Sam asked.

"My dad's in the building."

Jazz ran down the hall, looking for her brother. She needed to see if he was okay.

Who could do this? she thought. No one in their right mind would do this.

She needed to know where he was. She skipped the assembly to find him (o-O). She didn't have time when she knew her brother was out there somewhere. But now she had a problem. Should she tell Danny she knew all along, or should she lie and act as if she had no idea the entire time? She was stuck. But now she had no time to worry about that. She'd figure tht out later. Right now, she needed to find him...

'-'

Danny was scared for the first time in a while. He didn't want to go to the principal's office incase it had something to do with the article.

Or maybe they think it's a rumor. Go on ahead. Tell them that you are not a ghost hybrid.

You're right, Danny thought for the first time this voice was in his head. He learned not to alwas listen to his thoughts. I should go.

Danny went up to the principal's door and knocked on it.

"Come in!" shouted a voice from inside. For sure that wasn't the principal's voice. Danny cautiously opened the door. He poked his head in the door to see no one inside. He cautiously walked into the room when the door slammed shut.

"So Fenton," the voice said. "We meet for the first time."

This is the only chapter I was proud of. Now that I think of it, it wasn't that good. But if you're wondering how Danny will make it through high school, well that's a secret. Signing Off! P.S, NA, I give you permission to use facts in my stories in your story. And one more thing: This is now a popular sovereignty. It's up to you! When Jazz meets up with Danny (which she will) and Danny asks her if she knows (and he will), should she tell him she's known since the Spectra incident, or should she lie and pretend and say she barely found out? Vote in a review!!! I can't start chapter 14 until I know!!

popular sovereignty: 1) a government in which the people rule. 2) a system in which the residents vote to decide an issue.
