I made you guys wait a long time, didn't I? Sorry! Anyway, I was reading over what I had originally written and noticed that in the first 9 chapters, I got pretty much no where into the plot (the main plot that is). So for the next chapters, I might combine them until the weekend is over, and then have my regular sized chapters. tell me what you think of me doing that.
Thanks to Dani-Danny, Phantom of a Rose, Naomi-Yuko, Horselvr4evr123, Majestic Moon, mystery writer5775, Haruhibunny, The Feral Candy Cane, ReadingChick, and LiLIndianPrinzess. Also, thank you Horselvr4evr for helping me come up with an outline. I don't remember if I sent you this chapter or not, but I'll send you the next one after I decide whether to double them or not.
Disclaimer: I don't own Danny Phantom or Hannah Montana. It's winter break, so please don't bother me about that.
Enjoy chapter 2 of Starlife!
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!
Danny Fenton groaned as he allowed himself to return to the waking world. He turned off the alarm clock, careful not to blast it. He would be grounded for sure if that happened again. He groggily got out of bed and went to the bathroom, where he took a quick shower. No doubt that Jazz was already downstairs, so he needn't worry about her hogging the bathroom.
After his shower, Danny got dressed in the one outfit he had left out: jeans and a red t-shirt with white trimming and his symbol in white. Sam had had it designed especially for him. He slipped on his sneakers, and went to the bathroom where he brushed his teeth. Once he was done, he packed his toothbrush and other bathroom supplies in a small bag meant for that kind of stuff.
Danny went back to his room where he grabbed his backpack containing the thermos, the Infimap, his phone, a pencil, and a notebook. He put it on his back, and carried his smaller bag down. Downstairs, he phased it into his duffle, and then went to the kitchen, where he sat at the table.
"Nice shirt Danny," commented Maddie, placing a plate of pancakes in front of her son.
Danny blushed. "Thanks. Sam gave it to me about a week ago." As he began to eat, he couldn't help but notice that Jazz was reading a book on Ghost Envy, with a backpack filled with books on her back.
"Kids, your father and I arranged for them to transport Jazz's car to Malibu," said Maddie. "It's best if you get to Robby's house before anyone discovers who you are."
"Got it Mom," said Jazz, taking her brothers dirty dishes and placing them in the sink. "Bye Mom, bye Dad, we should get going now!"
"Bye Jazzy-pants!" exclaimed Jack. "Bye Danny! Let me know if you fight any ghosts!"
"Bye Dad," said Danny, rolling his eyes. He followed his sister to the front door, where he picked up both of their duffels. Sometimes it paid off to have superhuman strength. He then followed her to the car, and phased the luggage into the trunk. He then hopped into the passenger seat, and Jazz started driving to the airport.
Danny took this time to notice that his sister wasn't wearing her trademark outfit. Although her hair was up the same way, she wore her version of the popular Danny Phantom shirts that looked like Danny's trademark outfit, only it was black with turquoise trimming and her brother's symbol in the same color on the front. The rest of her outfit was the same as always.
"Jazz, don't you think we're giving away our identities by wearing these shirts?" asked Danny.
"No, everyone's wearing some version of it these days," pointed out Jazz as they saw a few teens walking in Danny Phantom shirts.
"True," agreed Danny. "What type of tickets did Mom get us?"
"First class," said Jazz. "I think she didn't want us to be crowded by adoring fans."
Danny sighed. "I save the world one time and now I'm one of the most famous people in the world!"
"No one else can truthfully say that without them the world would be destroyed," said Jazz.
Danny smiled at his sister. "I guess your right. And with Vlad gone forever, that means my horrible future can never happen."
"See? Life's great at the moment, and I wouldn't change it for the world," said Jazz. They then pulled into the airport and drove over to the area where their car would go to board the plane. Their eyes widened as they saw all the phangirls pointing at the car.
"It might have been a good idea to keep my secret a secret though," said Danny. Jazz parked, and they exited. The security kept the fans at bay as Danny took out the luggage. Both teens put on their backpacks, and Danny carried both bags to check in. The only reason they were allowed to bring the weapons in the first place was because they couldn't harm any human but Danny, and Danny was the world's savior.
Once in First Class, Jazz started reading her psychology book, and Danny took out his notebook. He took out a pencil, and turned the book to a blank page. Danny felt inspired, so he touched the pencil to the paper and started drawing.
He didn't finish until the plane was about to land, and that was without color. Jazz put away her book and glanced at her brother's picture. Her eyes softened as she recognized the people in the picture, but not what was happening.
It showed Danny fighting his future self outside the Nasty Burger, where she saw herself, Sam, Tucker, her parents, and Mr. Lancer were trapped against. Danny was using the Ghostly Wail against the evil being.
It was then that Danny caught his sister looking at his drawing. He quickly put the book away, hoping she had no idea what it was.
"Danny, what were you drawing?" Jazz asked.
"Oh, er…" Danny suddenly looked very uncomfortable.
"Danny, I recognize that as your future self, but I don't understand where that happened. When you draw, you recall real events and draw that, but I don't remember this happening. Was it a dream you had?" asked Jazz.
"No, it was real, but no one else knows that," said Danny. "Clockwork ended up giving me a second chance, so only me and Dan know what really happened."
"It must have been pretty bad," said Jazz, hugging her little brother. "We'll find some time to have a psychology session on this. Got it little bro?"
"Got it Jazz," said Danny, and they broke the hug. They were then told to prepare for landing.
Once they had exited the plane and grabbed their luggage (Danny was holding it again) Jazz led the way to her car. It surprised them that no one seemed to recognize them in Malibu. Hoping to last a little longer without being revealed, the two opened the trunk to put the bags in. Jazz closed it, and they got into the car.
"Do you have the directions?" asked Danny.
"No, but I have the address," said Jazz. "Remember, the car has a GPS, so we're fine."
Danny grinned at her and looked out the window. He needed to get a feel for this city in case ghosts came. And knowing his luck, they would.
They drove in silence, because Jazz insisted it needed to be that way so she could find the house. They passed Seaview High School where they would start come Monday, and the mall, which was always a good place to know the location of.
After about twenty minutes of driving (part of the time including wrong turns) they finally pulled up at the address. Jazz parked the car in the street, and they chose to take their backpacks out. Danny followed his sister to the front porch, and she knocked.
A/N: I've noticed in my writing I tend to leave cliffhangers more often than not. I have no idea why. Oh, and in the school musical The Adventures of Tom Sawyer I play Sereny Harper. I have a grand total of 10 lines! (That was kinda supposed to be sarcastic.) Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and review!
