Thank you so much for the reviews guys!

Reviewers: Faunamon, DannyPhantom66, XTempest888X, darkphantom11kc, josh111888, SashaJeanneW0lf and Yami Hallo, Thanks guys!

I'm so sorry guys, I know, the Sam/Danny stuff in this, someone asked if they were going out, and I didn't mention that anywhere I realized. No, they aren't going out, but of course, the two of them would… none of them have asked each other YET, there will be some D/S in this story, w/e Sam is around. And… Sam is staying at Danny's house… for no apparent reason? Lol. Cuz it's the weekend… I guess, I dunno, but I guess it's cuz I think they would spend a lot of time together.

Another thing that you guys might wanna know, none of your characters are showing up in this chapter… sorry! Maybe a couple of them… I dunno yet, but he is JUST arriving there in this chapter, most of my made up characters will be on his level in his dorm rooms, but I dunno for sure yet… I might stick yours there too… if I feel like it! But I do promise you, they will make it in the next chapter, if they don't make it in this one.

Another thing before I start, lol. Your character may not have the exact personality it was meant to have, I have tried doing things like that before, and they are hard, lol. So if your character isn't perfect, well… then that is just the way it is, but I will try to make your descriptions as best as possible!

Here comes the story! Finally!

Chapter 2: Good-bye my Hero

When I woke up in the morning, my mind was once again racing, I was gonna have to leave tomorrow! I needed to get to telling Jazz… as soon as I could build up the courage for it that was… Sam was already up, and on my computer, like she always goes on when she wakes up before me.

"You do realize your holding up the phone?" I asked her, in other words, trying to find out how long she had been on.

"I've only been on for a few minutes," she said, turning around, and rolling her eyes. I smiled at her, and ran my hand through my hair, the first thing I did every morning that I was stressed out. My hair was messy in the mornings… I don't even wanna explain it. I must move a lot in my sleep, because I go to bed with my hair perfect, and wake up in the morning with it all flat on the side of my head, yes, it wasn't always stuck up, it could go down if I wanted it to… but it wouldn't be the same. Also… it happened to be knotted and… well… let's just say messy.

"You know Danny, I think you look hot with that hair," Sam teased me, and I stood up and stretched, and just gave her the look. It wasn't the look your parents gave you, it was the look of, "Thanks, but I know your lying, and teasing me!" You should know what that look is like.

"You know Sam… Just because your hair happens to be so straight, it doesn't mean you have to be jealous of the messy hair," I teased her right back, and she stood up to meet me, face to face. Luckily, we were both pretty much the same height, so we were always eye level with each other.

"You know you're not funny at all?" She asked me.

"Tell me something I don't know?" I laughed, and tried to move, but she placed her lips against mine, kissing me before I went anywhere.

"That was nice to wake up to in the morning," I told her, and walked away, happily. Sam and I weren't EXACTLY a couple… but as you can tell, we should be, and would be… if any of us would just ask each other out, knowing that either of us would say yes no matter what.

I went into the bathroom, and grabbed my brush and began to work the tangles out of my thick hair. The next thing in my morning was using gel to hold it up in the right position, although, I didn't need very much anymore, it was kinda… just stuck up that way now after doing it for so long.

I then went back into my room again, all I needed was to make my hair right, and I was fine for a Saturday. I didn't need to look perfect or anything, I was only around Sam, it's not like as though she cared much.
"So, you still gonna tell Jazz?" She asked me when I walked through the door, laying across my bed, not even looking at me, but staring at the ceiling.

"Yea, why?"
"I didn't think you ever would."

"Oh? When I say something… I mean it," I told her, and sat down on the bed beside her. She still kept her eyes focused on the ceiling, she was thinking of something else to ask me, or if she should ask me another question.

"When you go there, your not going to forget about me, right?" She asked, and this time, she turned to look at me. Why would she think that? She was the best thing that had ever happened to me, I would never forget her!

"No, why would you say that?"
"I dunno, maybe you would rather stay with all the other halfas, be with people that are more like you, ya know?"

"Sam, I would never even think of leaving you out of my life," I smiled at her, but she kept a securely sadder looking face on, she wanted to make me feel bad for leaving, her plan was to try and make me change my mind, but I wasn't about to fall for it.

"You know, you do get to visit me? It's not like as though we are going to be without each other for to long," I said reassuringly, but I almost didn't want to leave her alone here, what if more ghosts broke through, and caused problems? Danny Phantom wouldn't be here to help anymore, and whatever few fans I did have, would think I either died, or I was abandoning them, after I had finally gained their trust.

"Yea, I know, but it won't be the same around here."

"Well, change is good, right?"

"Sometimes Danny, sometimes. Maybe not right now though," she sighed, and sat up. She walked out of the room, and I just sighed. Maybe this wasn't the best idea in the world. She wasn't mad at me, she was just… a little upset about me leaving.

I threw myself into my bed, and stared at the ceiling the same way she had before, thinking. You could tell by the look on my face, that I was thinking, you all know of that look, I'm sure.

I could feel someone approaching, and looked up to see it was Sam, I thought maybe she had left my house… what was I thinking? She would never do that. Especially without saying good-bye.

"Why did you leave?" I asked her, and sat up to watch her expressions, and tell what she was thinking a little clearer.

"Cuz, I wanted to give you something before you had to leave."

"I'm not leaving until tomorrow," I reminded her, and she smiled, but it wasn't a happy smile, it was a fake little one, like 'yeah, but what happens to me after that?'

She handed me a little box, and I looked at her for a second, and she nodded for me to open it. I opened it, and it contained one of those heart necklaces, a locket, and I opened it up, revealing 2 pictures of the two of us together. One of us kissing, and the other one of us hugging. I smiled at her, and closed it up.

"Thanks," I told her, and she smiled. I guess that giving me that, was a way for her to tell me not to forget about her, but that was never going to happen, I wished she would just understand that, and not make me feel bad about it.

"You had better go talk to Jazz," she told me, and I replied swiftly, "When I get the courage too."

"See, I knew you weren't going to just jump up and say it, you have to think about it for a while," she smiled, and threw her arms around me, giving me a tight squeeze. She then pressed her lips up to mine, and I returned her kiss, closing my eyes in a matter of enjoying the moment. We were in a total embrace, but then it was broken, by Jazz.

"Danny, I wouldn't leave your door open if your going to do that," Jazz said to me, and I opened my eyes, and we broke free of each other.

"Jazz! Can't you mind your own business?"

"Well, I don't care, but if mom or dad caught you, you would be in so much trouble. I was just saving you," she smiled, and I looked at her sternly, but lightened up, I had to remember not to get to mad at her, or to disrespect anyone, I was going to abandon them to go to some school they didn't know about, all just to train to become better with my powers. And if it turned out like Sam thought it would, brutal, and a little on the unsafe side, there was no telling what could happen there.

"Well, you could have just closed the door, instead of… well… letting me know you saw us!"

"Jazz, Danny needs to talk to you," Sam said, breaking up our argument, and I looked at Sam for a second confused, then gave her a dirty look. She just looked at me like, "Hahaha, that's what you get for arguing over something like that."

"What do you want?" She asked me, her interest sparked when Sam said that I needed to talk to her, since usually it was, I never wanted to talk to her.

"I needed… to tell you something," I said nervously, my stomach all in a bunch over this. She stared at me expectantly, my words unable to come out, no matter how much I forced them out. I would have rather had someone else tell her… like Sam who forced me into saying it right now.

"Danny? You Ok? You can talk to me about anything, you know that."

"Yea… I know… it's just that… It's kinda hard to say…" I told her, and I thought maybe it's hard to say… but maybe it isn't to hard to show her.

"So… instead… I will… just… show you," I told her, and turned around, facing at Sam now, trying to forget Jazz was even behind me. I closed my eyes, and transformed just like that, right in front of her face. When I turned around, she stared at me for a second, but her face wasn't in shock, it was more in a gentle look, and then she became happy all at once over it.

"I was wondering when you were going to tell me, I knew about it Danny, for a while. But thanks for actually telling me!" She said, and ran up, wrapping her arms around me. I just stood there, and thought for a second. This whole time she knew? Why didn't she tell me! I guess it would be because… if she would have told me, I probably would have yelled at her for getting into my business.

"You knew… this whole time?" I said, unbelievably, as though it was some newly discovered thing that would help save the whole world, and cause peace throughout everyone.

"Yea, I did… ever since… Spectra? I believe that was her name…" She said, remembering back on when Bertrand and Spectra had tried to make the whole school miserable, and then they wanted to end it by destroying her. I guess… I should have noticed before that she knew. I mean… she had countless times acted odd whenever a ghost was in our presence, she would often run off, as though it was some miracle that she left the room all the time, and made it easy on me to change into Danny Phantom with no problems.

"Oh… I guess I should have noticed it before."

"No, I guess I should have just let you know, but I figured it would be best if you told me."

"Well… then I'm sure you'll be… surprised when I tell you something else," I said, getting that nervousness again. What was going to be her reaction to me leaving home for a whole year? And what if I wanted to go back again the year after that?

"What's that?" She asked me, and sat down on the side of my bed, as though she knew what was coming next was going to take some major explaining.

"Well… I might be gone from home for a whole year… Because I wanna go to this school, but its not exactly anything you can tell mom and dad about."

"What is it? If it's school Danny, mom and dad can know about it."

"No, it isn't exactly the type of school your thinking of. It's a halfa school, for people that are half human, half something else. But… I would have to have you pick up my homework for me, and I would have to come home every once in a while, so that mom and dad would still think I was home."

"Danny… they are going to notice if your not around. Your teachers are gonna call home and ask what's up with all your absences, and mom and dad are gonna notice when you don't leave for school every morning."

"That's why… I need you to cover up for me. I promise Jazz, I am going for the sake of learning new things, and making new friends, just what you would want me to do," I said, and knew Sam wasn't fond of me making new friends, but Jazz always thought it would be better if I had a larger group of friends.

"Danny… it's gonna be hard to cover up for you for a whole year. How far away is this place?"

"That… I dunno. But… I can… Ummm fly home every day? Maybe… at least for a little while to pick up my homework, and to say hi to mom and dad, and maybe stop by to see Sam for a while. I won't totally be gone… and I promise, I'll call you a lot," I told her, trying my best to just get her to say it was fine.

"Danny… I don't know about this…" she said, and I didn't say anything either, I could tell she was thinking. We sat there for a while, Sam and I moving around from our positions a little, both of us waiting for her reply. I was hoping she would say yes, but Sam was probably hoping for the opposite.

"Fine, you can go… but you have to give me your number, so I can call you to know where you are, and so that I can make sure you're all right every now and then, got it?"

"Thanks!" I yelled, and ran up and hugged her. I was so happy she was going to let me go, and help for my cover-up.

"When are you leaving?" She asked me, after we were split up from each other. I looked at her for a second, and thought if she was going to change her mind if I told her I was leaving tomorrow, and told her about it on such short notice.

"Tomorrow, but I just found out about it yesterday… you can even ask Sam."

"Well, your lucky I'm agreeing to this, the only reason I am, is because you cared so much about going, you even told me about your secret, so it must mean a lot to you," she smiled, and got up to leave the room.

"Thanks!" I told her once again, and she closed the door behind her, I guess she didn't want to walk up on anything again.

"You really are excited about this, aren't you?" Sam asked me, I could tell she was tossed up between thoughts on it all. She was happy for me, for being able to go and meet new people, but she was also a little on the protective side of it all, and didn't want me to make new friends, or leave her side for a whole year.

"Yea, I am… in some ways."

"Yea, I hope you have fun, and remember, you don't HAVE to stay there, if you wanna come back home."

"I know Sam, and I realize you don't want me to go, but I promise you, I will never forget about you, and you will always be on my mind, all right?"

"Ok… same here."

The Next Morning:

Sam once again spent the night, because well… I guess she just wanted to spend the last night with me. Although pretty much, the whole time she was here, we did nothing, we just got lost in our thoughts as to what was going to happen today. Skylar was supposed to meet me in the park, so he could show me the way to the place. At least that way, I knew it couldn't be to hard to find.

When I woke up in the morning, I found Sam still sleeping, I was awake at 5:00 that morning, I had to wake up early to pack everything I needed. He was meeting me at 6:30, so that we wouldn't be seen, as easily, especially for on a weekend, most people wouldn't be around at 6:30 in the morning. Just the same as I thought I should still be in bed. But for waking up that early, I was full of energy, and once again… nervous. What if I was the looser in this school as well? I didn't want to spend the whole time there being beat up by people ten times stronger than Dash.

I stepped over the top of Sam, trying to stay as quiet as possible, but I would have to wake her up before I left. Then came another problem… I guess I would have to take her home too, or else my parents would be wondering why she was here, but I was gone.

I opened up one of my drawers, and it squeaked open. I squinted my eyes, and tried to open it as slowly as possible, but it made noise anyway, and for a longer amount of time.

"Morning," I heard Sam say behind me, and I jumped.

"Oh, hey, I was trying to not wake you up."

"I've been awake for a while… kinda," she laughed, she must have been awake, but in yet… asleep.

"I couldn't fall asleep last night," she told me, I could tell she was tired, but there was no way she was going back to bed now, she only had a little while left with me, and she was going to use it to her full extent.

"I couldn't either… I just hope this place is nice, and I hope the people there are nice."

"Yea, well… I hope so too. Can you call me when you get there?"

"Yes, I can. That'll be the first thing I do," I promised her, and began stuffing my bags with clothes. I grabbed a picture from in my drawer, and crammed it in my bag fast, it was a picture of Sam and I, but I didn't want to make it look like as though I was going to miss her. That would just be one more reason for staying home.

"You know, those people over there aren't going to like me? Whenever you bring me there."

"Yes they will, you're… not a normal person," I laughed.
"Hey!"

"Well, they hate the so called normal people, which I think is really dumb, so they all retreated to that school, where they can stay all year round and hide from the other people. I on the other hand… just keep it a secret. I don't think it would be the best thing in the world for me to just hide from everyone."

"Well, you have friends, and family, that love you how you are, they just need to realize that they could too."

"Yea… I wonder what they do about their families?"

"Well, it sounds like as though they told their parents, or they found out. Maybe they were rejected? You can never tell. You might be too, if your parents found out."

"Yea… I guess I could be," I said, my voice softened up, as I stuffed a picture of my family and me into the bag as well. I didn't know who my roommate would be, if we had one, but I was hoping it would be Skylar, he was the only one I knew so far, and he seemed to be really nice.

"Well… I had better go and say bye t Jazz," I told her, after I was all packed. Sam finally crawled out of bed so she could follow me down the hall. My house was freezing in the mornings though, and I almost didn't want to leave my room, which was always much warmer than the rest of the house for some reason.

We crept down to her room, the floor creaked in a few known spots, so I grabbed Sam, and just flew over the top of the floor till I got safely into Jazz's room, I didn't want to risk waking my parents up, then I would be in trouble.

"Hey Danny," Jazz said, already sitting up in bed, as though she knew I was going to come say bye sometime that morning. I was taking it… none of us three had caught any sleep at all.

"You didn't sleep either?" I asked her, and she nodded, "Yes, I slept, but I woke up early."

"Oh, well, I just wanted to say bye, and thanks for going through all the trouble for me. I'll call you when I get there," I told her, and she smiled at me, " I love you Danny, make sure you be careful, Ok?"

"Sure thing," I said, and we both left the room once more, to go back to my room, so I could grab my things, and get out of here. I was kinda anxious to get there, I couldn't wait to see what the people there were like, and what cool powers they might behold.

When we left my house, I had Sam in my arms, since I thought it would be best to fly in the early morning, with the sun just barely peeking over the horizon. Sam kept herself close to me, and clutched onto my shoulders, which was an indication, she didn't want to let go of me.

When we had arrived at her house, I flew straight up to her room, and placed her on her bed.

"So, this is it?" She asked me, and I sat down beside her, so I could stay with her for a few more minutes.

"Yea, I guess so."

"You know, it's going to seem a lot different around here without you around?" She said, and it sounded as though she was ready to cry. I could see her eyes starting to get watery, I didn't want to make her upset over it.
"Yea, and it's going to be different without you around, but just think, you can come see me once a month, I can fly home every so often, it's not like as though we aren't going to see each other for a whole year," I said, thinking on the brightside, one thing Sam rarely did.

"Yea, I know… but I'll still miss you," she said, and leaned her head against my chest. I put my arms around her, and laid my head on top of hers.

"I'll miss you too Sam… Promise me you won't worry about me? Or think about me too much?"

"I can't promise you that, I always think about you Danny, you're the one person in my life that understands me, and the one person that's always been there for me."

"Your not upset about this, are you?"

"No Danny… it's just as though my hero is taking a little break from his job, I guess. You do know, you are my hero, right?"

"You were the first one to ever think that," I told her, and we spread apart. I looked down into her eyes, they were still watery, but she was holding back the tears. I pressed my lips against hers, giving us one last kiss before I had to retreat from this life, and start on another.

"I love you Sam," I told her, as I sat up, ready to leave.

"Bye Danny, I'll miss you. Just remember, no matter what happens there, if you have new friends and don't like me anymore, or if you somehow, have to stay there for a longer time, you will always be my hero," She said, and a tear slid down her cheek, she was unable to hold it in any longer.

"You need to remember one thing to, I will never forget you, and I will always love you. Bye Sam," I told her, and looked away, heading out away from her house was the hardest thing I had ever done before, knowing I might not see her for a while. I flew towards the park, thoughts racing through my head, now only about Sam. The school was totally washed away from my mind, and she was all that was left. Until of course, I saw the wolf standing in the park, waiting for my arrival. I could tell that I too, was starting to cry, leaving her behind, and I had to sweep away the tears, and try to collect myself back up again before meeting up with him.

"Hey Danny, you ready?" He asked me, and I nodded, a little more sad than happy about leaving my town, and heading for this mysterious school, on I had never heard of before. Luck, or fortune, I didn't know what running across Skylar the other night was going to bring me.

"You're going to have to fly fast," he told me, and he flashed me a smile. I didn't know what he was talking about, until he sprinted off into the sunset. I followed him, flying at my fastest, but he was much faster than I was. I took up higher in the sky so I could keep an eye on where he was going at least, I didn't need to get lost right now. That would only let him know that I wasn't exactly fit for this school.

He sped up so fast though, it was all a blur to follow him, and I soon found myself lost, he was no where to be seen. I kept on flying, but went to the ground, just in case he would turn back for me. This sucked, he should have known I couldn't move that fast!

"Danny?" I heard someone ask, and I turned around fast, to see a girl resembling a Goth standing not to far behind me.

"Who are you?" I asked her, and she smiled at me.

"My name is Emma, I'm supposed to take you from here to get to the school."

"Oh… why?"

"I dunno, I guess this was Skylar's way of letting you get to know more people."

"What are you half of?" I asked her, she looked like a normal person.

"Vampire. Odd, huh? I don't have any idea how I got it, or why, I just woke up one morning, and I had the sharp teeth, and the hate for light. It doesn't exactly kill us, Vampires aren't the kind that get killed from light, not as far as I know, I just don't like it."

"So… that's why your Goth?"

"No, no, I have always been Goth, why?"

"Nothing, you just… kinda remind me of someone."

She did too. She was a lot like Sam. She had that short hair, the exact same hairstyle as Sam's, and she was also extremely skinny. But, she wore different clothes. She wore baggy back pants that had chains hanging off of them, and a tube-top that had a skull on the backside of it. She also had those amethyst eyes, she could literally be a sister to Sam, but in yet she was far from being Sam. Sam was one of a kind, and I was sure Emma was to, but they would probably make great friends.

"Who? A friend I hope?"

"Yea, I guess you could call her that," I said, but really, I would prefer it to be Girlfriend, but eh, I hadn't asked her out yet, I still needed to work on that a little bit.

"What's her name?"

"Sam. We've been friends for a long time."

"Oh, I didn't think you looked like the kind that would hang out in a Goth crowd, I wanna see what you really look like," she told me, and I transformed into my human self. This whole time, we had just been walking carelessly, obviously I didn't need to get there in a certain amount of time.

"Wow, you've got nice eyes," she pointed out. Wow… she wasn't afraid to give her opinion that was for sure.

"Thanks," I said, and transformed back, I preferred to stay as a ghost for now… so that if she decided to pull a trick like Skylar did, I would be ready for it.

"You know, there are more half ghosts at this school," she told me, maybe trying to make it sound as though I would fit in just fine.

"Really?"
"Yea, but just a couple. I am the only half vampire I know of, and I know everyone in our section."

"We have sections?"

"Yes, there are twelve floors, there is one section per floor, you're on my floor, your roommate… well, you'll meet him later."

"Is he nice? Or… not?"

"I guess it depends, he sorta keeps to himself, I never talk to him, he really isn't much of a people person at all."

"Oh? Well, I guess then I'll be left alone for a while when I'm in my room."

"Yea, who knows though, you could become friends with him," she said, and then she vanished, as though she could just disappear when she wanted too. I looked around, expecting to see her somewhere, but she was gone. Oh well, someone else was around here, I was hoping.

I felt tapping on my shoulder, and I spun around, and saw no one was there. Then, someone appeared, he was another half ghost, I was guessing. He had icy blue eyes though, with gray hair, instead of white. His suit was a lot like a jumpsuit, just not like mine, it was like how mine used to be, only it was black, and green, instead of black and silver.

"Hey, Danny I'm guessing?" He smirked, and looked me over. He was a little taller than I was, and his hair was cut in layers, and shaggy, the way a lot of people on the beach would have their hair. He also had more muscular arms, and you could see a six-pack through the tight suit he was wearing. He looked like a major show off though, his teeth were perfectly white, and he had a frown on his face when he looked over my scrawny self.

"Yes, I'm Danny, and you are?"

"Josh… you don't look like you belong here, squirt. You look a little, small?"

"I'm not small!" I stood up to him, and he just swept a hand at me.

"I don't want to fight you, I choose to fight people my own size. You know, you really need to loose that D on your chest. You think you're a super hero or something?"

"In my town, I try to be."

"To humans? They are worthless, and they will end up turning against you. No matter how much you try to stay on the good side, they always turn on you for one reason or another."

"Humans? You're making it sound as though you aren't human!"

"Danny, you aren't either. You're a ghost, half of one yes, but your not exactly considered a human around here, although, we all try to treat each other like equals. You look like one of those types that would hang out with normal people, and take no time into training. That may be your weakness around here."

"I know how to trust people, and it's not my fault I didn't run and hide," I said to him, and he shot a quick glance at me, he didn't like me saying that.

"You think I'm chicken? I could kill you in a few seconds, so I suggest you straighten up, your not putting a good example for the first day. Skylar should have never even invited you," he said, and it sounded like I hurt him pretty bad. But I didn't care, he was the one that had decided to pick on me first, he was definitely not going to be my friend, I could tell of them.

He took off from off the ground, and I followed him, he was one person that I was probably faster than, but I couldn't go ahead of him, or then I wouldn't be able to find my way. Skylar had a reason for making me meet these people in particular, I guess he figured they would be the most suited for me, but I wanted to meet my roommate.

"There, I'm leaving you here," he said, and he turned invisible, disappearing from sight. How many people was I going to have to travel with? I just wanted to get there, and be done with the whole thing!

I fell back down to the ground slowly, I was just awaiting the next person who I was going to have to come across. This was pretty odd so far, but I wanted to see something different, something I had never seen before in my life.

"Danny, that is your name, right?" I heard a voice say from the woods off to my left, and I looked over in that direction. Her voice was beautiful, she had a soft tone, and a wonderful voice. When she appeared from out of the woods, my jaw dropped (not literally) she was… hot! (A/N: Heehee, Sam isn't gonna like her!)

Her hair was blonde, and fell in layers down to the middle of her back. She had a skinny figure, with tan skin. Her eyes were a dark green, with eye shadow that was a little lighter, but it fit her eyes perfectly. She was wearing tight jeans that fell loose starting at her knees, with a tight belly shirt, that was pink, with the word, 'Sexy' written on it in purple. Wow… her shirt was definitely right!

"Yea… that's my name," I said, staring in awe at her perfect figure. She smiled at me, and looked me over, her eyes scanning my whole body.

"Wow… your pretty cute," she told me, and began to walk in front of me.

"You just walk up to people, and tell them that?" I asked her, no one I knew ever just… said it on first meeting someone.

"Yea, if it's the truth, you have a problem with it sweety?" She asked me, and I shook my head.

"What's your name?"
"Introduction, huh? My name is Haley, I'm half unicorn."

"Half unicorn? That's… odd."

"I know, but I like it that way, I would have to say it's the best way to go. I can walk around like a human, and then when I don't want people bugging me, I change into my horse half, and I can walk around like an animal, no people bugging me at all."

"Sounds like fun… I would have to say otherwise."

"Well… I can't imagine being half ghost is easy."

"It's Ok, I have… some friends and everything, but I have a lot of enemies as well."

"Which is why you came here?" She asked me, and turned to look at me, we stopped our walking.

"No, that's not why. I kinda… almost didn't even want to come, but I figured it would be cool to attend a school for halfas."

"Halfas? Odd, where'd you get that from?" She asked me, and we started to walk again.
"A ghost… a while back."
"Oh, I figured a person would have said something like that, making up rude names like that."

I looked at her a bit confused, that was a rude name? I guess they didn't like to be called an odd name like that, it probably made them feel bad, but it didn't bother me any.

"Why didn't you want to come?"

"I didn't want to leave my friend behind, she was pretty upset when I had to leave, it made me feel bad. She was trying to make up a million different reasons for me to not go."

"She? A girlfriend?"

"I wish… but no."

"Ask her out then, I mean, who could say no to you? You are cute, and so far, you seem to be a nice person, unless you always are on first impressions?"

"No, not really. That last guy… I don't think we are going to be friends any time soon."

"Oh, he had a rough time trying to fit in, after people found out about his secret, but I'm sure he'll tell you more about that later. Besides, we're almost to the school."

I looked around, hoping to find a building sticking up high in the air since after all, it was at least 12 stories high for just the dorms, there was no telling for the class buildings.

"Here we are," she said, and I stopped to look around, all I saw was a couple of huge pieces of metal laying across the ground, and a huge battle arena sitting inside the woods. There was also a huge park nearby, and a couple of stores, but other than that, nothing.

"Umm…"

"Don't say anything. I know you're confused, but… the school is right there," she said, pointing to one of the pieces of metal.

"And the dorm is that one, over there. BUT… don't say anything. You can get in through the top during the day, but we rarely leave our dorms during the day, they are hidden below the surface for a reason. During the night, they are lifted above ground. During the day, they are hidden so no one has a chance of finding us, although, some people, will know where it's at," she explained, and stopped, letting all of it sink in.

"We have so many creatures of the night too, that it was just necessary for the buildings to be located underground, would you like to go see your room? You can ask your roommate more questions, if you would like," she said, and walked over to the platform. She sat down, and whispered something into it, and a door opened, stairs at the very top so we could enter.

I walked up beside her, and she began to walk down the stairs, I was following close behind. So far, the name Midnight was making a lot of sense.

Once we were off the stairs, the door closed, and the stairs folded up, and now we were stuck in the building, this floor was totally plain, but I was guessing the dorms were starting right below it. There was an elevator at the end of the hall we were standing in.

"Come on, We're on floor seven, I'm sure you'll like it, we're mostly people that stay up twenty four seven, so you will never be the only one awake, people call us the party floor," she smiled, and raced into the elevator. Great, just what I needed, restless people running around when I was trying to do homework from school, and from here. I had realized, it actually took me two hours to get here, I didn't realize how fast the time was going by.

Once we were both inside the elevator, she once again whispered something into a box, a password I was guessing, and the elevator just dropped, and then made an instant stop which made me fall to the floor.

"Oops, I forgot to warn you, the elevator isn't exactly a smooth ride."

"I kinda know that now," I said, pulling myself back up. When the door opened, there was a lit up sign on the side of the wall that had the number 6 in green. There were people running down the hall, and a few people sleeping in the hall, instead of their rooms.

"This is… odd," I said, stepping over some people that had fallen asleep on the floor in front of the elevator.

"Some people, stay up to late, and don't make it back to their rooms," She explained, and laughed. It was definitely something to remember I couldn't wait to bring Sam here already! She needed to see this.

"Hey, is there by any chance a phone?" I asked her, I needed to call Sam, like I promised her.

"There is one in every room. Your room number is… eighty, I believe," she said, pointing to a room. I walked up to it, and pulled on the handle, but it wouldn't budge.

"You need a password," a familiar voice said behind me, and I swung around to see Skylar standing there.

"Oh, what is it?"

"AB6624, I know, it's… odd, but they have to be secure, you can never tell if someone wants to get in your room and kill you in the middle of the night."

"Thanks for the information… I said, and told the door the password, and it opened up. Skylar followed me into my room, and I just threw my stuff on the ground for now.

"Your roommate should be here any minute, you can decorate your half of the room, if you would like," he said, pointing to one half of the huge room, that was totally blank with just a bed, a table, a computer and a light.

"Wow, we get a computer!"

"Yes, but we are only allowed to play on it for one hour of the day, it is being monitored, trust me."

"Oh… well that sucks."

"Yes, but it has all the IMs, games, and everything you can imagine already on it, any game you can think of, that computer has it."

"Wow… that's neat! Umm, phone?"

"Oh, there is one on his half, you have to buy your own though. You can use his, he never uses it anyway."

I walked over to his half of the room, the carpet and everything on his half had been changed. His wall was painted a different color, his bed had different sheets, and blankets on it then the original, he really cared what it looked like for some reason. It was all done up in stars too. The floor was even a starry carpet, it was pretty cool looking, but not what I would have done.

His phone even was all black with little white dots on it, looking like stars as well. I picked it up, and dialed Sam's number. I couldn't wait to talk to her, and let her know I was all right.

"Hello?" Her mom answered.

"Is Sam there?"
"Yes, hold on just a second," she said, and I could hear her yelling for Sam in the background.

"DANNY! Sam yelled into the phone, she was pretty happy to hear from me. I smiled when I heard her excitement, and Skylar was off to the side giving me a weird look, he knew who I was talking to though.

"Oh, I'm so happy to talk to you! How are you?"

"I'm fine, I'm fine. You?"

"I'm good, been doing nothing all day though, just waiting for your call."

"Yea, well, I'm doing good too, you should see my roommate's half of the room, it's pretty cool. I'll have to take some pictures and send them to you. Oh, and the computer, supposedly has everything I can imagine on it, so that should be fun."

"That's cool, maybe we can still send e-mail and stuff to each other too, huh?"

"Yeah, that's what I was thinking, but I only get an hour on it."

"Oh well. You can still call me all the time! When does class start?"

"Not till tonight, it's a night school."

"Oh, well, then you can come home during the day for a little, right?"

"Maybe, but it was tiring coming here, I might come back home next week, and pick up my homework and stuff."

"Aww, are you all right?"
"Yea, just tired, but I'm sure I'll get used to flying back and forth, and it will be like nothing in a month or so."

"Oh shoot… you think you can call me back?" She asked me, she was still overly excited, I was happy to hear her being… happy, instead of sounding depressed.

"Yea, sure, it might be a while though."

"Ok, Bye Danny! Talk to ya later!"

"Bye Sam," I said, and put the phone back on the hook. I turned around, and Skylar was still staring at me.

"Sounds like she's your girlfriend?"

"No, she isn't… just a really good friend."

"She sounded excited to see you."

"Yea, well, she is gonna miss me a lot."

"Well, you can't think to much about her, Ok? You are going to have a lot more on your mind then your human life, this isn't an easy class, although the people out in the hall make it look that way."
"Do we get weekends off?"

"Yes, and you can stay online on the weekends all you want, we have no school today, so it was a good day to bring you here, so you can get to know people a little better."

"Yep, you have anyone to show me?"

"Oh yea!" He said excitedly, I couldn't wait to meet all the people ahead of me… and hopefully make a whole bunch of new friends…

All righty guys long, huh? Lol, I know, I got carried away today. Took me… three hours to write it all, but that isn't too long, I was also playing games while doing this, lol. Next chapter will have your characters in it, obviously, and you can already tell two of the people in here are bad news… Anyhow… I will update soon!
