Bum bum bum bum!!!!!!! Chapter six is here at last! Now Danny meets someone new who's suppose to be his tutor and just for the record I may have changed the story plotline of the book just a tiny bit here. But that isn't until waaaayyyyyy later chapters. So for now please enjoy Magic's Blood Chapter Six…

Chapter 6

The summer grew into sort of a routine for Danny. Everyday he'd get up and would have breakfast down in the hub, it was always interesting to hear about the latest this and that in the wizarding community. Then He'd go back to his room to study on the work he needed to catch up on. To any normal person it would have seemed impossible to get all that work done by the end of summer. Even Hermione Granger would have said that it was impossible for one person to do.

How ever, Danny wasn't normal…

Thanks to having at last gotten the hang of duplication Danny could now be three or four Dannys at once. He already had the first, second and half the third year of magic done and he still had half the summer to finish the fourth year. The only problem was that for the fist few weeks every time he did duplication he would be completely drained and had to rest for another hour or two before he tried it again. He got better and better at it though until he could almost do five duplicates.

The stuff in the books were actually pretty interesting. They talked about a lot of things that Danny knew a little bit about like different ingredients for potions and what each does. Ancient artifacts and secrets behind things like the Lockness Monster and Big Foot. One thing that Danny noticed about Daja was that she was really smart; no matter how many times he did the duplication trick she could always tell which one was the real Danny.

Tom was really nice and sometimes he'd help him out while Danny asked questions about a few things Tom would happily answer back. If Danny ever wanted to go out to the muggle part of London he'd have to be back before the sun set and he needed to tell the bartender before he went any where.

Like today.

Danny was asleep in bed with Daja snuggled up next to his head on the pillow. A trunk lay at the foot of the bed wide opened with several objects in a mess inside it. Pieces of clothing were scattered all around inside mixed in different bits and bobs, black robes, and thick, leather bound books. Around the room, it was furnished with pieces of furniture that had owls carved into them. It included a comfortable canopy bed, a night stand next to it, a dresser with a mirror, and a warm fireplace by the window that gave a view of the muggle streets down below.

At the sound of loud shouts from the shops that had begun to open for another busy day of business, Danny woke up. Rubbing his eyes, he got up walking up to the bathroom to take a quick shower before going down stairs for breakfast. Stretching and yawning, Daja got up and jumped down from the bed onto the floor. She waited for Danny to finish so she could follow him to get some breakfast.

It didn't take Danny long to finish and it wasn't long before he was dressed and heading downstairs with Daja, as always, riding along on his shoulders with her soft tail wrapped around his neck. He found Tom already setting up for another day of busy shoppers coming and going through his hub to get to Daigon Alley. A few other lone figures could be seen in random places sipping some strongly brewed coffee or eating food to their liking. The torches were dying down allowing for the sunlight that came from the windows high near the roof to laminate the room.

Walking past several tables and stepping aside to let a broom, who seemed to be sweeping the floor magically, Danny reached Tom. The toothless man smiled at the sight of the raven haired teen boy. "Good morning Mr. Fenton," he said warmly.

"Hello," Danny greeted back.

"Going off to the muggle streets again today?" Tom said amused already knowing the answer. The teenage boy always left around this time and wouldn't return for another two or three hours. He had once asked Danny why he went there so often and the boy had said that it was so he could talk to his friends back home. The toothless bartender couldn't help but admire the loyalty that Danny had towards his non-magical friends.

Seeing the boy nod in response Tom added as Danny headed out the door, "Be careful now!" He watched as Danny closed the door behind him with Daja riding along faithfully on his shoulder. Chuckling Tom got back to preparing for another day of business. For some reason he just couldn't say why but there was something weird about Danny. He's a good kid, Tom thought to himself as he finished wiping down a table, no use sticking my wand in other people's lives.

Outside Danny strolled down the street, dodging carts of produce and shoppers. After nearly a month, Danny could navigate efficiently now through the busy streets of London.

After getting lost for the sixteenth time in just one hour. Danny had decided to explore London by air at night. Sure he had to break Dumbledore's rules but it was only one time! Anyway the clouds started to gather into what looked like the beginning of a storm. He had to hurry if he was to call Sam, Tucker, Jazz, and his parents before it started to rain down on him and the firefox on his shoulder.

Not that the rain would bother him, since he could throw up a small shield over his head like an umbrella. Daja, on the other hand, was like a cat, being a firefox (key word being 'fire'). Saying that Daja loved water was like saying that Vlad wasn't a fruit loop. And I'm saying that in the nicest way possible.

Either way, over the short period of time that Danny and Daja have been together, it was pretty obvious that almost where ever Danny went that little ball of fur wasn't far behind. If Daja couldn't go in some places she would patiently wait for Danny to come out.

Today was no exception. Because of time differences and his cell phone not working so far away, Danny had to use an international pay phone about a half mile away from the Leaky Cauldron.

Rounding a corner he passed a cart selling some hot buns and fruit to those who passed by. Daja sniffed at the smell they gave off, its aroma luring her in.

"Don't even think about it," Danny said stiffly.

Daja retreated back to her old position a little annoyed at Danny. She was I perfect position to easily snatch one with out anyone noticing. Swift paws, fast, perfect reflexes and agility, Daja was a great hunter.

It can be proven since every meal Danny finds some part of it missing…

Taking a left then going down an alley Danny soon stepped into a park. The trees were all tall majestic beauties that've had so many squirrels, birds, and kids climb on them their branches smooth and perfect for just that. There weren't as many kids in the park since rain clouds were already overhead full of water.

Cutting through the grass to another sidewalk where it was pretty much the center of the whole area. With a gazebo for small performances to take place in, and right along one side of the walls were the payphones.

Searching through his pocket until Danny found a few quarters that was good for at least twenty minutes to talk to his friends. Dialing the numbers Danny leaned against the wall waiting for either Sam or Tucker to pick up the phone. After a few rings a voice sounded at the other line.

"Hello,"

"Hi is this Sam?" Danny asked.

"No this is her mother Pamela Manson. Who is this?"

"Hi Mrs. Manson, this is Danny," he said casually, just his luck it's Sam's pushy mother. Even after the whole Freak Show incident Sam's parents still didn't approve of their daughter's choice in friends. "Is Sam there?"

"No she went out with Tucker to some poetry reading at school," she said stiffly.

"Well if you see her can you tell her that I called?"

"Of course, but she probably won't be back for a few more hours, I don't know why she wants to go to some event at night it's compl—"

"Sorry Mrs. Manson," he cut her off, "But I have to go, bye." He hung up the phone. It was no use calling Tucker, since he was probably with Sam and Jazz had told him that she was going out of town with their parents to visit an old friend.

Stuffing his hands in his pockets Danny headed to an alley. Double checking to make sure that no one was around. Two bright rings formed around his torso moving horizontally changing his street clothes into a black and white hazmat. His eyes turned a glowing green and his black hair snow white.

Daja was unconcerned; she just waited on top of a garbage can licking her paw. As soon as Danny was done she jumped onto his shoulder ready for take off. The first time Danny ha taken her flying she completely freaked out and almost fell a hundred feet to the old, hard, concrete floor below. It had taken an hour before Danny could finally coax Daja to calm down. Now she liked flying almost as much as Danny, just as long as she had a good grip on him when he did loops.

With Danny's little friend ready for take off he turned invisible and flew up towards the clouds. It was nice to escape the city and just be alone and free. With a grin Danny swooped through a rain cloud.

Much to the fox's dismay…

Emerging soaking wet, laughing at the misfortune of the wet fur ball around his neck. Daja responded by biting Danny's ear with her sharp teeth.

"Ow! Hey that hurt!" he glared at her. She just glared back with a 'serves you right' look. Shaking herself spraying the young ghost with a small shower. "Hey! Daja. Quit it!" sighing he turned invisible for a second before reappearing all nice and dry.

Danny flew for about fifteen minutes before he felt the splatter of a raindrop on his head. Looking up he saw a flash of lightning in the distance. Daja was getting restless, eager to go back to the Leaky Cauldron where it was all nice and dry away from the rain.

There was no point in flying any longer for he knew Tom would be worried that Danny was out in the rain.

Darkness had washed over London and already buckets of water were falling from the sky. Danny transformed in a near by alley and hurried into the bar where the lamps were already lighting themselves.

It was crowded and nosy inside full of people who had seeked shelter from the harsh rain. Despite it being only two in the after noon it was as dark as night outside.

"Looks like it's going to be raining all day and night," He heard someone say as h made his way upstairs to his room.

"Aye, 'tis' going to be a harsh storm it is,"

"Good thing we got our shopping done then,"

"I'll say, there is no way in my mind that I'll be going out, especially with this blasted weather!"

"You'll never catch me outside on a day like this,"

"Same here. Normally I wouldn't have even come today but my daughter said that she had to come today."

"Why's that mate?"

"I don't know but she said that she had to do something for her teacher,"

Danny couldn't hear anymore because he was already upstairs in front of his door. He noticed that the door was open. Thinking that it was probably the house cleaner he stepped inside to find a girl sitting on his bed reading a book.

She heard him come in and glanced up. "Hello, are you Danny Fenton?"

I know I know I know it's a short chapter but I decided to leave you all guessing. You'll be surprised since I don't exactly do these things normally. So you'll just have to be patient until I can update. I'm sorry it took so long but I've been having writers block all week and I haven't had too much time on the computer. Oh well I have to work on my other stories now. And just out of curiosity does anybody take AP Environmental Science?

Next update will be of Burdens then I'm going to start a new story or two. Check out my profile to see what they're about.
