"Standard question: What did you do this time?!" Danny yelled as he held back Johnny 13 and his shadow. To his surprise, Kitty had accompanied the two, attacking Black Cat with a ferocity he never knew possible for the ghost girl.
Staring at the bad luck duo, Johnny was noticeably duller in ghostly shades, his gray aura dimmingly outlining a shaking body. It was almost like he was possessed or worse, ironic for a ghost, but it made the fight seem like a bad omen. All this came to a head as he followed her the next day after hearing rumors of a hot chick in a black cat costume walking around town.
Johnny soon left for the human world, leaving his girlfriend behind, speeding through the air on his motorcycle with his shadow out by his side.
However, Kitty had followed him, and the dominoes fell to right now, with Danny fending off Johnny and his shadow before they blindsided him and lunged at Black Cat.
"I honestly have no idea," Black Cat leaped away from Kitty as she swung a kick at Johnny before vaulting off the gruesome shadow. Landing on her feet, she stared at the ghostly duo. "But something tells me my powers had a bigger effect than a boost."
"Will you just hit me already! I need a fix!" Johnny yelled. His movement was slow, straightforward, and apathetic as he clawed at the kitten.
"Look what you did to my Johnny!" Kitty disappeared for a moment, going behind Black Cat. She pressed her hand to her puckered lips and blew a kiss, reappearing as a lipstick kiss mark flew towards her target.
But Black Cat heard the noise and saw the blown kiss, back-flipping over it as Johnny's shadow got hit, disappearing into thin air.
"Sorry, but you have to buy me dinner first," Black Cat cooed. But the puff of smoke from where the shadow was just now made her change tones. "Though I don't think a date with you would end well."
"Darn it!" Kitty blew another kiss. The lip mark hit the smoke, and Shadow reappeared, snarling with his fangs on full display.
Danny froze the dark ghost on the spot, sucking him into the thermos. But that did not stop Johnny, who barely registered what happened. The biker grabbed Black Cat by the jacket, shaking her frantically as he demanded something.
"Come on! Hit me!" Johnny yelled.
"If you insist." Black Cat obliged, reeling a fist back before striking the ghost.
But Johnny's grip only tightened.
"Not that! I mean with your eyes! Hit me with them!"
Kitty tackled Johnny to the ground, holding him by the wrists as she straddled him. Her legs wrapped around the biker, so he could not get away quickly.
"Johnny, enough! You have to fight this!" Kitty sobbed, tears dripping off her face. But her boyfriend barely calmed down, only focusing on Black Cat.
"I just need a hit, babe, then things will be fine," Johnny remarked.
"Uh...what now?" Danny walked up to the couple, ripping Johnny from Kitty and encasing him in ice. For all the trouble the unlucky ghost gave the ghost boy, this was not an average Johnny 13 speaking.
"What is this?" Danny asked, pointing to a struggling Johnny.
"Ever since your catty girlfriend met Johnny, he's been acting off!" Kitty snarled at the kitten, arching forward with her hands clawed. "Now he won't stop thinking of her and those stupid eyes I'm gonna rip out!"
Danny got in between her and Black Cat, who walked up to the former's back. A hand was in her jacket in case Kitty decided to move.
"I guess my powers were more like a shot of...something for your boyfriend, that power boost might have some drawbacks." Her free hand produced a thermos, aiming it at the iced Johnny. "Some time in the thermos should give him the isolation to get everything out of his systems."
"Where did you get that?!" Danny patted his pockets, noting the missing thermos in his person.
"You want to leave the ghost like this?" Johnny grunted as he started breaking free of the ice. The ghost boy sighed with a shake of his head. Black Cat pressed a button, and the unlucky biker was captured.
The thermos was capped and handed back to Danny, who gave it to Kitty. "Here," he said. "I'll come back for the thermos. But I'll see if I can get some help for Johnny. Sorry about all this."
Kitty slowly grabbed the thermos. She sniffled and nodded her head. A tear was wiped away, and she disappeared, only concerned about Johnny. But before leaving, one last dagger-like glare was given to Black Cat, who said nothing.
"This is not good," Black Cat said.
"Johnny or something else?" Danny looked over his shoulders as the kitten let go.
"That ghost reacted differently to my powers. If one had that kind of reaction, there could be others." Taking out her burner phone, the girl tapped away at its applications. "I'll have to run some tests. I don't want to find out who else can get addicted, or worse, the hard way."
"Uh-huh."
Black Cat smirked at the ghost boy. The phone was put away as she walked back, swaying her body with each step. Hands were positioned on the boy's chest, locking eyes with him.
"I take it you want something else?" She cooed.
"How about, why are you walking around in costume?" Danny's tone was overdosing on snark. He did nothing to push the cat, but nothing was done to bring her in.
"I wanted to stretch my legs. You know, enjoy myself. Don't you like to suit up and just fly around sometimes?"
The ghost boy sighed, going to his phone for the time. It was slowly taken out of his hands as the kitten unzipped part of her catsuit, putting the device between her chest and covering herself again.
"Don't you have pockets?" Danny was so tired of the thief, his hormones did not bother him with the fact he saw cleavage.
"Yeah, but this gets your attention better." Black Cat took a stance. "How about a spar? I need something to do," she said with quivering lips.
"You know what...I'll get it back to you later. I gotta study." Danny flew off, leaving the kitten alone.
Felicia's body dropped to her knees, sighing.
"I guess he'd get bored of this at some point," she said. And Danny wasn't the only one.
Felicia was bored beyond reason, something she avoided feverishly as class went by. Lancer explained the works of another Shakespearean play, The Taming of the Shrew, a production that somehow discussed a form of proto-feminism that could only work in its day. The girl spent the day fine-tuning her equipment with her imaginary lab located inside her mind. To her, it was the most productive thing she could do all day, besides ignoring or hurting Dash whenever he overstepped his boundaries.
Staring at Sam and Tucker, the girl's thoughts turned to how little she knew of them. Sam had her heart on her sleeve, but Tucker kept to himself with all his technology, a contradictory friendship that was banded together by Danny. For all the duo's anger at the thief, there were many reasons for the kitten to be jealous of them. Visions of her childhood came, jumping towards the end of her freshman year, blurring everything together before the memories were thrown away in anger, betrayal, hurt, and vulnerability.
That was one part of her past she was not ready to revisit, even though a therapist had seen her through the events at the time.
"Ms. Hardy." Lancer's voice broke her train of thought as the teacher brought the spotlight to her. His gaze did not affect the kitten, her head gently going to her laptop. "Care to explain what you think Shakespeare meant in this line?"
"Besides the fact he was using his poetry and plays to hide pro-woman philosophies especially in his comedies, writing in a time period when speech was heavily censored?" Felicia's tone was calm, distracted, and bored, answering the question correctly to the amazement of the class. That was another perk of being the popular girl, especially for Felicia, boys fawning over everything she said. If not for the collective sighs, someone might have heard Paulina groaning, resisting the urge to scrap her perfectly manicured nails against the tabletop.
But Paulina had plans of her own, eyeing a certain ghost boy.
Danny sighed, banging his head against his locker door. The feeling of flesh meeting metal rapidly was starting to feel like a bad habit forming, but the numbing of all thoughts seemed too good to pass on. Beside him, Sam and Tucker offered emotional support as they waited for their friend to finish; sadly, it was easier this way.
The two couldn't blame the ghost boy. Ever since the start of the new school year, the complexity of his relationship with Felicia Hardy was mixing into his school life. It was not that Black Cat was making school visits, but rather the boys who pestered with questions.
"You two split up, right?"
"Help a fella out and give him some digits?"
"You gotta tell me your secret! How do you do it?"
And this was the tip of the iceberg. If one were to compare metaphorically to reality, an image of the Titanic sinking would best run parallel.
"Ok, that's enough heavy metal for one day," Sam snarked, putting her hand between Danny's forehead and the locker. It did nothing to stop, but at least now, there was no concern for mild concussions or brain damage.
"Dude, just ignore them." Tucker came around, placing his arm around his buddy's neck, smiling. "They don't know everything. Plus, let's be honest, they wouldn't have a shot, even with bad luck."
Danny groaned, rubbing his forehead as he stopped banging his head. With a deep breath, his face softened as he gave his friends a warm smile.
"Thanks, guys," Danny said.
"What are friends for?" Sam rubbed her palm, happy her friend was feeling better. "No matter what happens, we'll be there for you."
"And what if he wants something to happen?"
Danny and company blinked, staring at the source of the voice. At this point, they were expecting such catty responses to coke from Felicia, who would have stealthily made her way to their circle, but instead, they saw Paulina. To top off the mood, she walked over to the ghost boy, leaning on him with fluttering eyes.
"Mind telling us what you're doing?" Sam snarked with cross arms.
"I was wondering if Danny here could help me in computer class." Paulina's eyes never left Danny as a finger ram circles over his chest.
"Then ask Tucker," Danny replied with a thumb pointing at his friend. He did not know why the Hispanic girl was sitting over him, but her goals did not concern him.
"But he's not as cute." At those words, Sam's hand cut through the two, pushing the popular girl back.
"Hey! What gives!?" Paulina rubbed her face as Sam's closed in.
"What give is you're flirting with Danny about tech when it's obvious you're using him for something!" Sam seethed.
"Yeah, we all know you wouldn't want anything to do with Danny unless you have a reason," Tucker added.
In the usual high school hierarchy/drama, this would be the part where Paulina would flaunt her status to push through, using vague threats of teenage consequences should she be denied. However, the statute quo has been shaken, reinforced by the presence of another girl.
"And something tells me I'm part of it." Everyone jumped a little, save for Danny, as Felicia made her presence known.
"Someone needs to put a bell on you!" Sam yelled.
"And someone needs to put little miss airhead in her place." Felicia stared at Paulina, ignoring the geek and goth.
"Who me?" The former school queen gave an exaggerated gesture of sadness as her innocent tone did nothing to provide a mask. "I was just thinking about how I never knew Danny looked so—"
"So depressed and ripe for the idea you could steal him just to scratch me?" Felicia was not going to allow the girl to just waltz over and flirt with Danny, not when she wanted nothing more than to get back together with him. "Nice try, wannabe."
Despite not liking either of the girls, Sam snorted as she saw Paulina turn red, baring her teeth at the insult. In the past, such actions would have patched things up, but it was a start, still. Tucker joined in with his phone out, recording everything.
"What happened to your PDA?" Danny asked.
"I...can't use it anymore. It's too old to use with current tech." Tucker traced his fingers over the handheld device. "I could still integrate it, but it wouldn't be long before I had to replace it. I love it, but I'm not a miracle worker."
It was Danny's turn to comfort his friend, knowing how much the PDA meant to the boy. Sam joined in, offering condolences as the catfight grew in volume.
This was the signal to leave before pestering students came to gawk or question the situation, and everyone knew who would be at the center of this storm.
"I need a break," Danny groaned, quickly walking away before the crowd came. This was becoming another long day, annoying the ghost boy again due to his associated popularity with Felicia. It was one thing to be popular but another to want to be—a long-forgotten phase.
The day had nearly ended as the night sky assimilated its dark blue hue. Crashing with a full set of pajamas, Danny Fenton was ready to call it the end of another long day. Despite the reprieve from all ghostly activity, being the center of attention was emotionally exhausting beyond comparison.
"I feel like I just...I don't even know what I went through," Danny said, lying in his back. "The only good thing about today was Dash getting another detention, and that's not new anymore."
The ghost boy would do nothing at this point in the day. Sleep was partially a task due to night patrols and surprise ghost attacks. Counting sheep, listening to music, and thinking about Technus's drawled-on speeches from his initial appearances were helpful at times, allowing boredom to overcome a young teenager to sleep.
However, as comfortable and relaxed as the ghost boy would've been, his thoughts gave him no reprieve as they integrated with his dreams. Many times, he saw himself chasing after Black Cat through a dark city. Sometimes he caught her, sometimes he did not, and a scarce few ended with them dancing. The only common trait these dreams shared was how they made Danny toss and turn in his sleep, somewhere between awake and asleep.
Having enough, he got up, annoyed from seeing the thief in his dreams.
"Ok, complicated teenage angst and drama or not, I don't need to be chasing her in my dreams," Danny muttered, rubbing his face. He needed a distraction now.
To his luck, however you call it, a ringing was heard from his nightstand, underneath his lamp. With dozing grabs, the device was picked up as the screen lit up. Danny's eyes shot open when he saw it wasn't from his usual contacts. With a rush of energy, the ghost boy haphazardly fell off the bed as he answered, trying his best not to sound frantic from the fall or surprise.
"Barbara, hey! How's it going?" Danny answered.
"Alright. Though I wonder if I can say the same about you."
"I sound that bad, huh?" The ghost boy ran a hand through his black hair
"No offense, but you sound like broken record. Plus, I heard some rumors that a certain cat has been crossing your path."
Danny heard this and sighed. One thing about calling a previous date who was a superhero, they could always hear of your business. It was alright, as Barbara was trusted.
"It's...complicated. But what's up? You wouldn't call unless it was important," Danny asked.
"Batman found something. It seems there's a contract out on someone. I saw the location and f wanted to know if you could help."
"Sounds like trouble. I'll be over there soon. Just give me the coordinates."
"Texting you the coordinates. I'll see you soon." Barbara hung with a sultry tone as she blew a kiss. The ghost boy blushed for a moment before transforming.
"Alright. Time to kick some—" A knock at the window interrupted Danny as he heard a visitor tapping, rapping outside his house. Here he opened up the blinders to be surprised at his eavesdropper.
Danny flew through the air at top speed as he left the city limits of Amity Park. Scowling, he shook his head as a black-suited chest blocked his view for a moment.
"Any particular reason you were listening?" Danny kept his focus on the skies, ignoring the smirk on Black Cat's face.
"Honestly, I was hoping to spar a little. Stretch out my legs before bed, you know? I mean, this isn't the first time," Black Cat held onto Danny as tight as possible.
Cradled in the ghost boy's arms, a rush of excitement kept her up, squeezing her carrier tightly, pushing herself closer from the adrenaline. This was just the thing she needed, an adventure to claw away the boredom.
"Doesn't that just wake you up? Last I checked, people need to sleep," Danny snarked.
"And yet, here you are, awake after curfew flying I out of town with a beautiful girl in your arms," Black Cat cooed as she scratched the boy's chin slowly. "Last I checked, you're still struggling to keep up grades."
"And you're not?"
The kitten giggled, making the ghost boy pass a moment's glance, and said, "In case you forgot, I'm acing classes, even with my runs." She curled in, making some ghostly blood rush. "Maybe if you ask nicely, I could help you."
Danny was silent as he looked at the girl. While his feelings for Felicia were complicated, part of him knew he shouldn't turn down being tutored by a straight-A student, especially one he could not deny was beautiful.
"Oh, come on Danny. it will be just like the old days. We can be...study buddies, and maybe...more, if you want." Black Cat's sultry tone was enticing as her fingers walked on one of his shoulders. Her breath teased his ears as she spoke,
"N-no," Danny said, being stubborn.
Black Cat pouted but then smirked as an idea formed in her mind.
"That's a shame...since really...you benefit more than I do in this situation..."BC said.
"What do you mean?" Danny could not help being curious at the cat's idea.
"Think about it...not only would your grades improve thanks to having such a gorgeous genius as your tutor—".
"And modest," Danny said sarcastically, but she ignored that and continued.
"—but every moment I'm tutoring you, I'm not out on my runs."
That was too good to pass up, but not even the idea of Felicia being out of costume could seal the deal. It was obvious if the two were alone together, any combination of feelings could leak out, possibly rushing things. That's what Danny wanted to avoid the most. He would not, could not, patch things up with Felicia that quickly.
"Think about it. For now, we're here," Black Cat added, pointing to the town limit sign. Its name was ignored as the two landed.
It was just another town, like those seen in movies—nothing special or noteworthy with everything you would expect to see. Construction sites were scattered, displaying billboards of the mayor and his plans to improve the home, primarily for his career.
"Wow, another town seemingly in the middle of nowhere...I really can't think of a good quip," Danny muttered.
"Not even about your very own Phantom signal?" Black Cat pointed to the sky. To her and the ghost boy's surprise, ya cloud was lit up with the hero's symbol, a D with a P inside.
Danny looked around, seeing familiar faces on a rooftop, but they were surprised to see another beautiful face beside the girl. Landing, he put down the thief, who stared with him to see Supergirl next to Batgirl.
"Ok, what's she doing here?" Black Cat's question was for no one, but that did not stop an answer.
"I should be asking you the same question." Batgirl had a hand on her utility belt. "Supergirl is here not only for support, but because she wanted to get out of the city for a while."
Supergirl gave a warning glare to Black Cat before floating over to Danny. Her frown turned upside-down as she hugged his arm, pushing it into her chest.
"Hey, Danny," Supergirl cooed. She put her lips on his cheek. A quick kiss made the ghost boy blush, almost melting as Supergirl parted her lips.
And his ghostly heart would beat more as he felt another kiss on the opposite side.
"You're not the only one who missed him," Batgirl teased, hugging the ghost boy's other arm. She gave a quick kiss on this side's cheek.
The two girls leaned into each other under Danny's scarlet face, twinkling their eyes. Their face against his chest as it rose and fell rapidly.
"You sure you can do this?" Supergirl asked.
"What made you think I wasn't?" Batgirl giggled. "After all, his profile says single, now"
A loud Ahem interjected as Black Cat coughed once more, louder than ever. Her red face stared at the two as the girl of steel stormed up to her, having stopped a foot away.
"Give me one reason why I shouldn't take you down," Supergirl quipped.
"Because I'm actually here to help?" Black Cat circled Supergirl, giving a wink. "Nice to see you again, Blue Bird. I take it you missed me?"
"You mean my fists? Yeah, they did, but I think they won't this time." Supergirl cracked her neck with a confident smirk. She walked up to the thief, who only pushed her chest against the girl of steel's.
Batgirl whistled as Danny watched silently with a dumbfounded face. His mind raced through too many thoughts as he tried to get a handle on his next move. The air was thick with tension, glazing the potential catfight with some anticipation.
"Is she flirting with Supergirl, or picking a fight?" Batgirl asked.
"What are you talking about? She messing with her," Danny said.
"No, that's flirting." Batgirl's point-blank stare put things in a new perspective.
Black Cat leaned to the side and gave a wink. When she blew a kiss at Batgirl, the ghost boy rubbed his eyes and stared, now more stupefied with questions. But that would be inquired later.
"Enough," said a stern voice.
Danny jumped up to see Batman standing a few feet away. His presence had not been noticed till now, as if he appeared out of thin air. The ghost boy never met the caped crusader, but staring at him, the former questioned the man's physiology because he seemed more than just human.
Rumors had circulated about the dark knight and his patrols, but there were too many voices to describe the symbol.
Black Cat walked past Supergirl and up to the dark knight, wolf-whistling under Batman's stern gaze. The caped crusader had a reputation, never bound by the limits of Gotham city. There wasn't a crook, thug, or ne'er do-well that hadn't heard of his legend, with many myths and stories mixed with tall tales.
"So you're THE Batman," Black Cat said in awe. "I must say, everyone in the Thieves' Guild wasn't lying when they said how intimidating you are."
"What, there's no Thieves' Guild in Gotham?" Danny blinked.
"They tried, but they landed in jail shortly after entering." Black Cat gazed at Batman, who had been walking towards the rooftop corner with binoculars out.
Danny stared at the dark knight, blinking rapidly. Superman was his favorite hero, but to hear Batman had prevented what he would call a crime syndicate by himself was inspiring. He could see why Tucker was a fan of his.
"So, what's the target?" Batgirl walked up to her partner.
"There." Batman pointed to a lone house with a light still on.
"What is it?" Black Cat asked, intrigued at how the ordeal revolved around an ordinary house.
There was much more to the picture whenever something big was centered in such dull settings. Most of the time, it was a thug or crook that ticked off the wrong person, owed money to the mob, or ran away with classified information. No matter what, a treasure trove awaited inside, enticing the kitten. Calling to her with beckoning fingers. It had the thief on edge as she wiggled in delight.
A quick cough from Danny barely did anything to leash her enthusiasm, but it reminded her that she had to be on her best behavior. With a coy smile, she sat down as the others stared at her, except for Batman.
Standing alongside the dark knight, Danny looked at the house in question. Supergirl stared as Batgirl got out her pair with Black Cat touching her mask. Shrugging, Danny turned invisible as he flew into the house.
The place was just as ordinary as the town as the ghost boy got a look around. He stopped as he saw the lone occupant, a young woman. He stared with blinking eyes, turning red as he saw the resident before vacating the premises.
Reappearing with the others, he turned to see the girls looking shocked as everyone began staring at Batman. No distinct emotions were displayed, to their collective surprise, as the binoculars were put away. He just stood there, blended into the night as if nothing was out of the ordinary.
"All this over a woman?" Supergirl asked.
"A woman that seems to like being naked in her home?" Black Cat added.
"Is there something you're not telling us?" Batgirl asked, uncertain on how to react.
"Take a look at her face." Batman reached into his utility belt, producing a grapple. Aiming at a nearby water tower, he swung away, patrolling the area.
Batgirl shared a glance with the others before taking another look. As the woman turned to the window, she gasped, quickly going after the caped crusader as Supergirl, Danny, and Black Cat followed.
Batman landed on a nearby store adjacent to some alleyways and a construction site. He merged with the shadows, paying attention to the lit streets below. The teens caught up with him, greeted with silence as the man worked.
"Mind filling us in the details?" Danny was unsure how to ask that, confident he would not last under a cowled glare. And he was right as the caped crusader turned to him.
"Can you make us invisible?" Batman's question was more of a command, but it was obliged.
Danny held his arms out to his sides with a nod of his head. Supergirl, Batgirl, and Black Cat hugged him, engaged in a playful staring contest. This had Batman staring through the ghost boy before putting a hand on his arm. As the group disappeared, the blushing ghostly hero would swear he could feel the man smirking at him.
The roads were quiet as the wind howled. The street lamps flickered from infrequent maintenance as the heroes began waiting.
Nobody said a word, making seconds feel like minutes or hours. It was hard to tell without any object or symbols to use, with the moon covered by the clouds, almost desensitizing the gathered heroes.
Nobody knew how long it was till they saw cars driving down the road, stopping near their location. The men got out, dressed in dark suits and hats with masks. A motorcycle sped past them with a lean, wild man in a trench coat. From one of the rides, a man in a blue and white Eskimo outfit appeared with a man in an orange and green jumpsuit. And finally, a hippo in a wrestling outfit accompanied a girl dressed like a panda.
"What the heck is this? The convention of rejects?" Danny couldn't help at snarking, overwhelmed by the odd sight.
It was a big mistake as the motorcyclist skidded to a stop. He took off his helmet and sniffed the air, growling as he stared at the group.
"We got company! Someone's on the roof!" The man yelled.
"I got it!"
The click, followed by the bang of a gun, was heard as a bullet flew. On instinct, the ghost boy turned everyone intangible, phasing them through the ceiling before he brought them outside, reappearing behind the thugs.
"Oh wow! What are you doing here, Danny?!" Deadpool put down his gun.
Danny Phantom stared at the merc in shock. The gun was never a threat, but the fact he saw the man, who was a friend, shoot without hesitation hurt him.
"Look, I'm sorry about that, but I didn't think you'd be here! I think Fuzzy's fucking with me."
The cast of thugs and villains growled as they armed themselves. Batman reached into his belt, throwing from it a smoke bomb as the scene darkened. The sound of gunfire sprang the surrounding people from their sleep as the fight began.
I'm not usually one to be personal in these notes, but growing up, Batman: The Animated Series was my favorite show. To hear of Kevin Conroy's passing was disheartening. The man is the definitive voice of Batman for me, there's no substitute. So while I write the next part of this chapter, I send my prayers as even to this day in my adult years, I rewatch the DCAU.
Special Thanks! to Flower Princess11 for all her help!

Jebest4781: Thanks!
NiteOwl18: Just wait until it makes a proper appearance. ;)
germanjustiniano9: Eso es... un poco fuera de mi estilo preferido de escritura. Es único, pero no mi taza de té.
Invader Johnny: Yeah, I'm one to take things slow in my writing. And I've come to enjoy it.
CHAOSCONTROLFREAK445: I think it's more of the space between updates than the actual story that you can't stand. They are going to get back together soon, but I want to write some struggles as they do.
LockAndKey989: Not really. I've gotta introduce some story elements first.
RonaldM40196867: Felicia doesn't really hate either of them as they haven't truly done anything to anger to her beyond frustration. Paulina did flirt with Danny, but everyone knows she's no threat. Dash is just an idiot. I do not like answering spoiler questions. Given how it's chapter 45 and we've barely gotten into the second year, I really can't say.
danifan3000: Not stupid, just full of hot air and confident about her looks. Also, she stopped that when she found out Sam wasn't dating Danny, granted that just made more trouble.
Luiz4200: Teachers have a tougher job than everyone thinks. For small town schools, things can be worse as sports can be preferred from the school board, forcing teachers to put more into the athletic curriculum and players. Lancer may not be perfect, but life isn't black and white as easily as everyone can think. I like to reflect that in my writing when I can.
61394: Thanks!
Red Ron(Guest):I need to coordinate that still.
Guest: Of course.
Jay The Average Fanboy: I don't really watch much of Death Battle. I haven't seen the ninth season.
