Ch2. Little Danny
Driving down the road was an armored like van. In the driver's seat was a man by the name of Jack Fenton and in the front passenger's seat was a woman by the name of Maddie Fenton.
In the back seat behind Maddie, was a seven year old, red head named Jasmine (Jazz) Fenton. On her left, fast asleep was a raven haired five year old boy named Daniel (Danny) Fenton.
The van just passed a sign saying Welcome to Amity Park, A nice place to live.
"Jazz, we're almost there wake up you're brother" Maddie said from the front seat.
Jazz turned to her brother shaking his shoulder.
"Danny, get up" Jazz said to her brother.
"Why, what is it" Danny said sitting up rubbing the sleep from his eyes.
"We're almost there" Maddie said tuning around to face her son.
"Whatever" Jazz said from the back seat.
"Jazz enough of your negative attitude think of all the positive things" Maddie told her daughter.
"Like what, you just took me away from all my friends, making me go to a new school two weeks before the next school year starts, and what about Danny he's going to be starting kindergarten. Now he's far away from any of his friends to start school with." Jazz finished.
"What friends" Danny said knowing he had no friends at their old town.
"Jasmine you've been agreeing since we told you we were moving why can't you just be more like Danny? Danny doesn't mind moving." Maddie said to her daughter.
His mom was right Jazz hadn't stopped complain about moving since she found out, Danny remember it like it was yesterday even if it was really a week ago.
The entire Fenton family was sitting at the kitchen table except for Maddie who was at the oven checking on her roast she was cooking.
"So how was preschool Danny?" Maddie asked her son.
"It was fine" Danny said witch was not true.
His parents put Danny in preschool first to get him out of the house so his parents could work without having to check on him through out the day and hoping he'd make friends but that was a failure.
Danny was just different from the other kids and weird. Danny saw things, heard things, and felt things no one else did. He saw the white mists floating around, the multi-colors surrounding people, and he heard the voice whispering in the night.
None of the kids believed him and tended to keep away from him so Danny usual found him self alone.
"Did you have fun at your friend's house today honey" Maddie asked Jazz.
"Yes" Jazz replied.
"Good, well I guess before we eat me and your father have good news" Maddie said addressing the entire family.
"We're moving" Jack cut in.
"We're moving!" Jazz yelled.
"We get a parrot" Danny said.
"We can't move what about school and friends" Jazz argued.
"You'll make new friends at a new school" Maddie assured her daughter.
"What about Danny, he's five at his age it's hard to make new friends its better we stayed here so Danny can stay with his friends." Jazz said.
"What friends" Danny said in more of a statement than a question.
"That's the spirit" Jack said to Danny.
And pretty much is how it went all week, Jazz going on and on about why they shouldn't move and both parents trying to convince her it won't be so bad.
It was the night before they were moving and Danny was in his room putting his toys in their boxes for tomorrow. Jazz was walking by his room and saw him packing.
"Aren't you even the least bit upset about moving?" Jazz asked her bother as she stood in the door way.
"No, it's not like I've got any reason to stay" Danny said stopping to look at his sister.
"What about friends and going to a new town where you don't know your way around" Jazz decided to argue.
"Like I said for the last week what friends and mom says it's a small town it won't take long to figure out the lay out" Danny said to his sister.
"Is every one against me" Jazz yelled to herself as she walked off.
Danny frustrated with his sister wasn't paying attention to what he was doing and lost his grip on his crayon box he was currently holding spilling the colors all over the floor. As Danny started to retrieve his crayons he came across a copper color among all the multi-colors. He moved the crayons aside to see it better. It way just a penny, but Danny picked it up and looked it over. He saw the year printed on it and gave a smile seeing the year was the same year he was born.
"Danny, honey you almost done packing" Maddie asked as she was passing Danny's room on the way down stairs.
"Yeah, guess what mom I found a penny with the year I was born on it" Danny said holding up the penny.
"Wow, you know pennies like that are special," Maddie said to her son "you know a penny like that gives you three wishes."
"Really" Danny asked.
"Really" his mother replied before going down stairs.
Danny held up the penny looking at it.
'Three wishes' Danny thought.
"I wish we were having pizza tonight" Danny said curling his fingers around the penny.
"Danny, Jazz what do you say we have a pizza delivered instead of going out to eat" Maddie shouted from downstairs.
"Sure" Jazz said from her bedroom sounding not too happy.
"Yeah" Danny yelled down.
"Wow, it really works" Danny said looking at the penny.
About 15 minutes later they were all at the kitchen table eating pizza and Jazz was once again going on about what else but moving (big surprise).
"Jazz, I wish you would stop already, we've heard the same thing all week" Danny yelled tired of hearing her.
It also didn't help Jazz's room was next to his so he heard her every night and morning for a week.
Jazz stopped talking and went through the rest of dinner without speaking.
That night while Danny was settling into bed he picked up his penny.
"Well, two wishes gone one left" Danny said to him self.
He closed his hand around the penny.
"I wish I had a friend" Danny said in a whisper before falling asleep still holding the penny.
The next morning the entire Fenton family was woken up early. All the family but Maddie were in a zombie like state as they loaded the van. As the Fentons loaded their van the movers were loading the trucks. As soon as everything was loaded they set off.
Danny was in the back seat and had nodded off the moment he was buckled up. Jazz was half way awake and was slowly becoming more awake every minute. Jack was in the front passenger seat and was like Danny. Maddie was wide awake and because she was she got the position of driver for the first half of the trip.
By nine o' clock all the family was up trying to stretch out in the tight confines of the van. Jazz waited for the entire family to be awake before starting her ranting she been doing all week. Danny was beginning to wish he'd save his wish for Jazz to shut up till now. At least at home he could have taken his dinner into his room to get away from Jazz's ranting but in the van he was unable to go any where to escape.
"Jazz don't you have a deck of cards? Let's play a game." Danny said in a desperate attempt to avoid another one of Jazz's it's a bad idea to move speeches.
Jazz gave into her brother's plea for a different subject and played cards with him till about noon, when the Fenton family decided to stop for lunch.
While they were waiting for their order it gave Jazz a few moments to rant on again.
Danny was ready to scream and if possible would be hitting him self unconscious by swing a bat over his head. Danny was happy when their food finally came so Jazz couldn't talk with food in her mouth.
Once the Fenton's were done with lunch they headed back to the van.
This time Jack took the driver's seat, Maddie took the front passenger seat, and the kids took same seat they had before they stopped.
After about half an hour Danny felt it was time to ask the all famous question asked by all children while traveling in the car.
"Are we there yet?" Danny said to his mom.
"No" his mom said from the front seat.
"When are we going to get there?" Danny asked.
"If we don't hit any traffic delays it should only be about 4 more hours" Maddie answered.
"4 hours" Jazz said and groaned.
"Look at it this way sis 4 more hours to think of new reasons we shouldn't move," Danny started "just keep them to your self."
Jazz crossed her arms over her chest and looked to the right and stayed looking out the window. Danny turned to his left and also stayed looking out the window too. It didn't take long for boredom to set in and Danny fell asleep with his head resting on the glass. Danny was later awoken by his sister.
Danny ended his trip down memory lane and returned to the present. He's in the van with his family and they have just driven into their new home town, Amity Park.
As they dove through the streets of Amity Park Danny was taking in the sights. He saw a large park, a school called Casper High, an arcade, a fast food place, and an ice cream shop. Further down he saw a mall in the middle of construction and his new school Amity Elementary.
Final the van came to a halt in front of a two story, brick house on the corner of the street. The moving trucks were already there and started moving furniture in.
The Fenton family filed out of the van. Danny was happy to be able to stretch his legs again.
"There it is" Jack announced.
"Not impressed" Jazz said only loud enough for Danny to hear since he was standing right next to her.
After a quick tour so Danny and Jazz knew where their rooms were they started unpacking the boxes from the van.
Danny was carrying a box of his toys up the stairs to his room. As soon as he reached his door he felt the air suddenly become cold. Danny chose to ignore the feeling and walked into his new room.
Danny took 5 steps before he saw an unexpected and abnormal guest. Standing no, floating in the middle of the room was a teen with white hair, glowing green eyes, and transparent. He dropped the box with his mouth falling open.
"Who are you" he said in a shaky voice pointing straight at the white haired teen.
"What you can see me" the teen asked.
"Of course I can I'm not blind" he said.
"But you shouldn't be able to see me I'm invisible" the teen demanded.
"Well, I can see you… and I can see right through you and you're not touching the ground!" he yelled with surprise.
