AN: I am so sorry for the spelling in the last chapter. Does anyone wanna beta this story for me?
Spatterson: Thanks for your review but I dont want Danny to go all evil and kill everyone but clockwork will play an important part in the story. Danny will have words with his old friends and family but who knows if he'll forgive them?
Chapter 4
Danny took one of Vlads motorbikes for a drive. He chose to ignore the helmet. He choose the silver and black Ducati. As he started the bike Danny was reminded of Jonny 13. Danny wore black jeans and black motorcycle boots and a plain white t shirt. All he was missing as the trench coat and he could have been his brother. He smirked at the random though shook his head and put it all out of his mind. Danny liked the way he dressed lately. It felt great to ride. Almost as good as flying. Danny was thinking about how much his life had changed in the past 2 weeks. Vlad had insisted that Danny wear the gold watch at all times so that he could get used to wearing it. Danny didn't understand why until he put it on and realised how heavy the thing was it had taken a couple days for him to be able to use his hand normally and for him to get over his fear of breaking it.
Danny drove out of the rich areas towards a public park. Across the park, was a burger joint and a large sign for karaoke. Danny parked his bike outside the building. As he walked towards the park he couldn't help but notice, that all the teens there had bicycles parked next to his bike. Danny shook his head and realised how easily he had accepted Vlads wealth as his own.
There was a group of teens playing football, while a couple of girls sat on the blankets and watched. That group reminded him of the A listers back at Casper high. Danny shook his head and started to read his book but his eyes keot drifting back to the teens. Danny felt lonely sitting under the tree. It had been a really long time since he had acted like a teenager or had any fun. Danny wished he had a real friend. One that wouldn't betray him. While Danny was lost in his thoughts the group of teens noticed the stranger watching them.
Erick went to the local public school near the park. He was the captain if the football team and the beauty Cassandra who was watching them play was his girl. He was also a bully. They all noticed the guy watching them, then he looked as if he were daydreaming. Erick didn't like it. He noticed Cassie staring at him and he hated it. Erick was well off. The richest guy in school. His dad was a local businessman. It was better than all of the others who were teachers or something. Erick couldn't help but want to prove he was better than this guy. There was just something about his presence that grated on his nerves.
The guy shook his head and started walking towards the restaurant across the park. He was a little ahead of them and he went inside. Cassie and Erick were the first ones on the stage while the others ordered. The girls started making fun of a girl that was sitting in front of the guy they saw outside. She was tiny, like really short about 4'7. She had waist length chestnut coloured hair and emerald green eyes. She was gorgeous and Cassie hated her. She wanted to make this stranger feel small and leave. This was their hangout afterall. They were trying to get her to go sing but she ignored them until the girl couldn't take it anymore and said "Who the hell do you want me to sing with diva? Leave me the hell alone." The entire place was silent.
Danny watched them carefully and saw how cruel they were to the girl. Danny was pissed. He was so sick of people like them and when the girl stood up for herself, he respected her. She obviously wasn't concerned with these people but she wouldn't allow them to belittle her for their amusement. It was clear that all the teens in here went to the same school and the two of them were complete strangers here. The rest of them were waiting for the A listers to do something. "I'll sing with you." Dannys voice cut through the silence like a knife. The girl got up gracefully and walked towards the stage. Danny joined her.
Danny
The girl
Both
We come into this world unknown
But know that we are not alone
Then they try and knock us down
But change is coming, its our time now
Hey.. Everybody loses it,
Everybody wants to throw it all away
Sometimes
And hey... Yeah I know what you're going through
Don't let it get to you, you'll make it out alive
Oh
People like us, we've gotta stick together
Keep your head up nothing lasts forever
Heres to the damned, to the lost and
Forgotten
Its hard to get high when you're living on the bottom
Oh whoa oh oh whoa oh
We are all misfits living in a world on fire
Oh whoa oh oh whoa oh
Sing it for the people like us, the people like us
Hey, this is not a funeral
It's a revolution, after all your tears have turned to rage
Just wait, everything will be okay
Even when you're feeling like it's going down in flames
Oh
People like us, we've gotta stick together
Keep your head up nothing lasts forever
Here's to the damned, to the lost and forgotten
It's hard to get high when you're living on the bottom
Oh whoa oh oh whoa oh
We are all misfits living in a world on fire
Oh whoa oh oh whoa oh
Sing it for the people like us, the people like us
Oh whoa oh oh whoa oh
You've just gotta turn it up loud when the flames get higher
Oh whoa oh oh whoa oh
Sing it for the people like us, the people like us
They can't do nothing to you, they can't do nothing to me
This is the life that we choose, this is the life that we bleed
So throw your fists in the air, come out, come out if you dare
Tonight we're gonna change forever
Everybody loses it, everybody wants to throw it all away sometimes
Oh
People like us, we've gotta stick together
Keep your head up nothing lasts forever
Here's to the damned, to the lost and forgotten
It's hard to get high when you're living on the bottom
Oh whoa oh oh whoa oh
We are all misfits living in a world on fire
Oh whoa oh oh whoa oh
Sing it for the people like us, the people like us
Oh whoa oh oh whoa oh
You've just got to turn it up loud when the flames get higher
Oh whoa oh oh whoa oh
Sing it for the people like us
They were amazing. The crowd were cheering loudly. Cassie looked like she was trying to swallow a lemon and the owner laughed. He told Danny to come back with his friend fo another performace. Danny put the mike down and took her hand. "I'm Danny." She smiled at him and shook hands. "Im Arai." Danny helped her down the stage and past the A listers. Erick looked pissed and followed them out, he was about to say something when Danny climbed onto his bike and offered the girl his hand. She gave him a huge smile and climbed up behind him. Danny revered the engine and took off with the girl.
Danny drove to the mall and parked. He helped her off the bike and stared while she put her hair right. She was wearing white skinny jeans and a green top that made her eyes look even more beautiful. Danny caught himself staring and blushed. She laughed at him and asked if he wanted to join her for lunch since he didn't get to eat before.
The two had an amazing time together. He learnt that her mother was greek and she was named after the greek goddess of curses. She didn't have many friends and liked to get away from her family. She thought they were all stuck up and rude. She was also extremely shy around people she did not know and had been taking music classes all her life.
Danny told her how he was unwanted by his family and that he was recently adopted by a family friend who always wanted a family. They were both sixteen and he couldn't help but laugh at her height. She then kicked him hard in the shin. The girl came to chest when they stood side by side and he couldn't help but tell her that he thought she was adorable. It was getting late and she needed to go home. Danny offered to take her but she declined. She gave him her cell number instead and disappeared into the crowd.
AN: I do not own Danny Phantom or the song people like us. I am just borrowing it.
