So I'm giving a challenge! Accept it! If you want!

Challenge is simple: Ever since I first saw DP, I've had one question lingering in my mind. I've been looking for stories about it, but I've found very few.

Question? I know Dash is bigger and more popular and all, but that just doesn't explain why he's so mean to Danny.

Challenge: Create a one-shot or two-shot explaining what you think the reason is.

Can it be slash? Sure.

Can there be OC's? Why not? To each their own. It may be my challenge, but it's your story.

Can there be pairings? Sure.

Can Danny be revealed? Sure, why not?

Can there be lemons? ...please no. If you can help it. Try not to go over a T rating.

Just put the two in a situation where they only have each other to talk to, and come up with the best reason you can to the question posed: Why is Dash so mean to Danny? Does it just come naturally? Is there some sort of past grudge involved? Is Dash possibly threatened by Danny for some reason? Something else?

Come on, guys. It'll be fun.

The below is just because I can't make this chapter nothing but an author's note. so this is just an example of a set-up. It doesn't have to be anything like this. I wrote it for kicks.

Good luck to any challenge acceptors.

-Phanny

(P.S. I announced it on dA because someone asked - Phanny is, in fact, not my real name. My parents aren't that mean.)

All Dash knew at that moment was that Danny Fenton, his own personal punching bag, was staring him down with an angry glare - he was pissed.

"I can't believe what you did!" Dash swore he saw Fenton's eyes glow green for a moment. Not that he was scared of little Fenton anyway, but still. He regained his composure after a tiny flinch away from the smaller boy's gaze. Fenton was still talking.

"Do you see what you freaking did here?" Danny continued. Dash totally wished that someone would barge through the door of the broom closet they had barricaded themselves in for their own safety. "Do you have any idea? They're looking for - and do you know why, Dash? Because you couldn't freaking leave me a lone for one day! What is it with you? 'Oh gee, maybe I'll get Fenton if I put his name on a sticky note next to the pot of chili in the cafeteria that I put stuff in to make it explode all over everyone!' You didn't get me, all you did was drag me down with you and you - ugh!"

Danny continued to seethe as he heard the angry students of Casper High charging through the hallways. If Dash wasn't here he could totally get out in a second…

"I don't need you yelling at me, Fenton!"

"Yes you do! You need someone yelling at you, obviously - my god, how stupid can a person get? What is it with you?"

Fenton suddenly leaned against a wall and sighed, staring at his shoes as he spoke again, his tone more subdued.

"Why are you so mean to me…?"

Fill in the blank? Again, that's just to keep this chapter more than just an author's note, *Walker voice* because that against the rules, punk.
