Chapter 1

A not so Ordinary Day

Nah...Think I'll pass. My heart just wouldn't be in it, y'know? Haven't got one, hehe...

~Axel, Kingdom Hearts

Danny let out a sigh.

Really? Three ghosts in less then two hours? Did life really hate him that much? Of course, it probably did, what with it enacting Murphy's Law on him just about every day.

Regardless, the halfa had to hurry, or else he'll be late for school. Again. "Danny!" He froze mid-step. After a couple of seconds he turned around. Behind him was his elder sister, Jazz. Said Red head was panting a little and caring something in her arms. When she finally straightened, she held out her item, "Here. Just in case a lot of ghosts show up today."

Obtained Fenton Thermos!

Danny gave Jazz a weak grin. "Yeah. This'll be handy, seeing as my other one is nearly full already."

His sister winced. "Maybe I should've brought another one then…"

"No, no!" he said quickly. "It's fine. Having one extra is great. So, you do realize you'll be late for your classes on the college if you don't go back, right?" Jazz squeaked loudly and spun around, running off without a goodbye. "Bye to you too," He snickered.

He glanced at his cellphone and flinched at the time. There was no way he was going to get in there time! Unless…Danny smiled.

Flying to school could be counted as abusing his powers, but when he was running late and would rather not have to make it up at a later date again, it was kind of hard to be upset with himself. This was of course one such situation. Stupid school attendance policies…

Danny hid besides the bleachers and changed back. Sneaking away from the jocks who were loitering around the area was almost too easy, especially when it seemed Dash had a mental 'Fenton Detector' as Tucker had dubbed it.

The three of them had had a good laugh at that.

Sliding into the high school with ease, the teenaged halfa began to seek out his two friends. Finally he found Tucker cowering a few feet from the Nurse's Office.

"…What happened this time?" Danny asked, bemused by his friend's behavior.

Tucker looked up at him. "I was almost dragged in there…Ugh…Nurses…Hospitals….ahhh…" Danny shook his head.

"Who tried it this time?"

"Valerie."

Danny winced.

Valerie Gray was his ex-girlfriend that had a murderous grudge against his Phantom self. Because of that, their relationship had fallen apart. Tucker had also ended up dating her at one point, but had also broken up with her. Too much of the 'trying-to-kill-his-best-friend' thing had been the reason he and Sam had been told that they had broken up…but Sam swore it was because the techno geek had a crush on another girl.

He didn't see it.

"Well, c`mon. Class will start soon and I want to find Sam."

Tucker peeked up at him again from between his fingers. "Lovebirds."

Danny rolled his eyes in response as he grasped his friend's hand to help him up.

Tucker Foley had joined the Party!

"Me and Sam aren't lovebirds, by the way."

"Keep telling yourself that, man." Tucker snickered as Danny rolled his eyes. The duo turned away from the Nurse's Office and headed toward the Library. For some reason, Sam had been glued to the place for the past few weeks.

"Wonder what she finds so interesting there." Danny mused aloud. "Maybe a new mythology book…?"

"Maybe." Tucker shrugged.

The Library was oddly crowded for a school morning. It took some time, but they finally found Sam by the mythology books. "Hey, Sam." Danny smiled at his other best friend.

Sam smirked at him as she put a large and thick book she had been look at beneath her arm. "Hey, Danny, Tucker. I found something interesting."

The other two exchanged confused looks. Sam opened her mouth to explain, but she was cut off by the bell.

She frowned. "Guess I'll tell you during lunch."

Sam Manson has joined the Party!

Danny shrugged. "Alright. Must be interesting, though, if it has you going this close to people like Paulina." He gestured to the nearby group of rather pretty girls.

Sam scoffed but said no more as they left the library. The torrent of students dispersed down into the many different halls and the trio was no different…

"…'To be or not to be, that is—" RING-RING. "—The question.' Alright, class is over! You all have an essay on why Shakespeare was so influential on both the Elizabethan England and Current day England! Due next time!"

Danny groaned under his breath. How…depressing. Another assignment that was without any doubt, due next time, no matter what. The teacher didn't ask for much, did they?

…In case the reader is confused, that was sarcasm.

"Danny?" The halfa turned to Sam, whom had said his name. "It's lunch and I want to show you and Tucker that book I got from the Library...You seriously may want to see it." Danny frowned before voicing his okay and turning to where Tucker had previously been. He was now attempting to look as innocent as possible.

He shook his head. "I don't even want to know what you just did." Tucker grinned at him.

Sam waved a hand. "Oi, you two! I need to show you something that seems really important."

After a bemused glance, the two boys followed their female friend out the back of the school and behind the bleachers. Pulling out the book she had taken from the library earlier, Sam settle down on the ground. The other two followed suit, knowing that if the goth was sitting, this would take some time to sort out. She place an old thick book on her lap before looking at the two. Her expression seemed to say 'Well? What are you waiting for?' Danny raised an eyebrow at her in return.

She rolled her eyes before opening up the large dust tome and flipping to a page in the center of the book. "The other day I read a story in this book that was rather..interesting. I thought I should tell you guys it...Because, well, I think it's pretty important."

Tucker leaned back on his hands. "Why do you say that?

The goth sighed. "Well, maybe because the first half of the story covers the past two years of our lives?"

"What?" Danny jerked forward and snatched the book out of her hands. "You're joking!" Tucker nervously peered over his shoulder. "'An Accident of Fate...Half of the Living...Great Pariah King falls...A Dark Future...' Holy Clockwork, it is the past two years of our lives!"

His techno geek friend made a face. "Oh man, what do you think would happen if someone saw this?"

"Dismiss it, probably." Sam muttered. "But it's the second half that interests me more." She pulled the book back out of Danny's hands and glared heatedly at him when he protested. He fell silent, feeling vaguely offended by her anger. Tucker snickered into his hand before receiving his own glare from the gothic girl.

Sam flipped the page. "Alright, listen to this...'The child of death and life will receive a message from a faraway land. The message shall be thus: Those of Taint shall follow you to the ends of the Worlds until they gain the power of the Keys. If you do not find and stem the flow of the Taint Source, you shall die...and the Worlds shall end in destruction. Once the message is delivered, It is up to the child of death and life for what he'd going to do...and when he shall gather the Keys.'"

She paused. "It goes on later t describe all of these...Key things, but I think I can summarize them in only a few words. To start with are the Keys of Fire, Earth, Wind, and Water. Self-explanatory, right? The next three aren't complete clear, though they make far more sense to the last three." The other two exchanged bemused looks. Sam rolled her eyes and continued. "Keys of Light, Dark, and Twilight. Could be referring to the times of day or the actually states of light, dark, and the in between...but they are definitely clearer then the last three."

"Which are?" Tucker said dryly.

A sigh. "I can't tell. The titles for them are in half in English, half in some language I've never seen before." She crossed her arms, letting the book rest in her lap. "All I can read of the descriptions are pretty off too. Though...I may be able to get a jest of what they do if I get some time."

Tucker grumbled. "Great, we get to wait longer..."

"No." The goth placed her hands on the pages. The other two shot her confused expressions. "I've been spending the last few days in the library, remember? I've been able to get what two of them do. The last one..is a bit off and confusing." Danny gave her his usual 'I-have-no-idea-what-you're-talking-about' look. Sam rolled her eyes. "Alright. The first of them...has something to do with 'Hearts' or 'Memory-Feelings.' I actually like the term 'Hearts' better then the 'Memory-Feelings', if only because it isn't as long to say. Apparently, the main power is either Healing...or Manipulation of Memory. I can't be sure...The language the text is in is really convoluted."

Danny leaned back on his hands. "Alright, so either it can extremely mess with people's heads or heal people. Wonderful. Can we keep going, please? Class if going to start in a little bit."

Sam ran her right index finger along the text of the page. "Well, the next one is something along the lines of 'Copy' or 'Mirror'. Maybe even 'Mimic'...All I can tell for sure is that this Key should be able to allow the user to copy the enemy's attacks." She tapped her left index finger against her lip. "The last one...is really hard. Something to do with 'Space' or 'Nothing'? I can't tell beyond that. It doesn't make any sense."

"Maybe I could..." The techno geek of the group crossed his arms in thought. "But I'd need a picture first..."

The halfa turned to his friend. "What is it?"

Tucker looked up. "I could get someone I know online to translate it. They're really into foreign and ancient languages, so they might at least be able to get the language. If we can get that, we can go into the Ghost Zone and search for a speaker there! But I need a photo first..." Sam passed over the book, just in time for the bell to ring. The techno geek winced. "I'll have to take it with me. That okay, Sam?" The goth shrugged before picking her stuff up from the ground.

"I'll take that as a 'Yes'." Danny muttered to his friend, whom mimicked their friend's action.

The trio stared at the blank chalk board. Their science class was the only one in the whole school that still had the chalk boards whilst the rest of the school's classrooms had been updated with white boards. It was rather infuriating, to be honest. Danny closed his eyes. The teacher, oddly, wasn't in the class, boring the students with his droning voice. Where could he be...?

Footsteps.

Danny jerked his head up to look at the door just as it slammed open. A woman stepped through, literally smashed science textbooks against the front table, and grumbled something that sounded like 'Stupid, Arrogant Skywalker...', though the way it was said was oddly fond. The dark haired teenager blinked as he say her spin around and write something quickly write something across the board.

When she turned back, he clearly saw what it said.

The red-haired woman placed her hands on her hips and smirked at them. Danny felt a chill run down his spin. "Guess what, brats? I'm your substitute science teacher for the next five months." Playing with one of her black leather gloves, her smirked widened. "My name is Mara Jade, and if you ever call 'Ms' you'll wish you'd never even been thought to be conceived."

Oh, great. A new, sadistic teacher.

How wonderful.
