I am so sorry guys... I haven't had time to update my stories... Okay I have but I'm a really lazy person. I also just started high school and I have marching band practice like very day for two hours! (not that much but yeah...)

Maybe expect both of my Dani Phantom stories to be updated... (I might even go on a writing marathon or something... who knows?) I was glad that the few reviews I got from this story were positive.

So without further ado... Here is chapter four: Grace and Logan

Danielle flew back tot he park. There wasn't much to do for the rest of the day. Only skipping rocks at Amity Lake or scaring children. Neither appealed to flight was quick. She landed about ten feet from her usual bench she slept on. She was annoyed to find two kids sitting and talking on her favorite bench. Danielle wasn't just going to let some kids take her territory. But she didn't feel like scaring them away would do any good. She might get her spot back, but someone might find out about her. Oh what a mess that would be. But what else could she do?

Then Danielle got an idea. Establish a friendship between her and the two kids. She could maybe get a bath and some real food, or better yet, someplace to sleep.

Logan looked at his one and only friend. She sat with closed eyes, relaxing in the cold February air. Logan kicked some snow away from the bench they were at.

"Hey, you awake Grace?" Logan joked with the girl next to him.

She smiled. "As awake as I am in Lancers class... Man that was boring!"

Logan looked around the park. It was clam and peaceful. "I know right?"

They sat awhile more before Logan broke the silence. "Grace, why do you think people hate us?" He looked over at the girl who simply smirked.

"How should I know?"

"You think I'm kidding"

"No, I found it stupid. Who cares what the others think?"

"I do... Like a lot."

Grace looked sternly at her friend. "Logan! Listen to me! We are the geeks, loners, and no-bodies! The popular kids hate us because we have nothing special!"

It was now Logan's time to smirk. "By special you mean an endless supply off cash?"

"Bingo"

The two teens sat in silence for a little while longer before hey heard quiet footsteps behind them. They looked around and saw a girl. About their age, wearing a blue hoodie, red shorts, sneakers, and a red beanie. She had black hair and icy blue eyes. She was also filthy, as if she hadn't had a shower in months.

"Hi..." Is all the girl said.

Logan and Grace looked at each other. A kid? talking to them?

"Hi there, who are you?" Grace asked.

"I'm Danielle, but since you seem to be of the more 'informal' type, you can call me Dani. And you are?"

Logan spoke up. "My name is Logan and this girl here is Grace."

Dani looked at both of the teens. "I assume you two are friends?"

"The best" Grace tasted proudly.

"And the only" Logan confessed."

Grace punched Logan and smiled at Dani. "I haven't seen you before, you new in Amity?"

Dani frowned. "Sort of."

"Please explain"

Dani looked at her feet and scuffed the packed-in snow on the ground. She didn't want to reveal her past to anyone. At least yet. When she didn't speak, the two teens looked at each other in confusion...

After a few minutes Dani got confused herself. "Are you guys alright? You haven't said anything in a while..."

"Neither have you." Grace finally said.

Dani smirked. "Good point."

Logan looked at his wrist watch. "Got any other names?"

"Cousin, brat, a few others.." Dani looked around and noticed that it was getting late. "What? How in the..? How is it so late?" The two teens must've realized this too. Ï don't know" Grace checked her phone. She squinted. "Hey, uhh, "Logan?" she began, "What time does my phone say?" Logan looked over. "3:41... what?" Logan checked his watch. "Mine says the same thing!" Dani grabbed Grace's phone. Sure enough it said 3:42 (time is still moving, don't worry) "Dang..." Dani looked around. It was almost "night time" now... Danny must behind this... or at least have something to do with this... I gottah find him... Dani thought. She was about to go ghost when she remembered the two kids behind her. Then her stomach growled.

Grace laughed. "You hungry Dani?" Dani blushed. "You heard that?"

Logan shook his head. "How couldn't we? It was so loud is rivaled Danny Phantoms Ghost Scream (Ghostly Wail) or whatever he likes to call it." All three teens laughed.

Grace turned her attention from Logan to Dani. "So Dani, where do you live?" Dani looked at the ground in shame. After a moment she answered, "On that bench."

Both Logan and Grace looked at Dani with confusion. "You mean your homeless?" Logan asked.

"More like homeless, foodless, friendless, education-less, and family-less."

Logan look Grace then back at Dani. "oh, what happened?"

Dani started regretting her decision of talking to these two kids. "My father...disowned me. And I threw him into a wall (wall...pillar... same thing...)

Grace looked up at the stars. "You want a place to stay or something isn't it?" Dani frowned. "No. I just wanted you to move."

Logan sighed and got up, "You heard the girl, Grace. Get up." Grace stood up and looked at Dani. "Sorry Dani."

Dani now felt guilty. It wasn't their fault she didn't have anywhere else to go. "Wait!" Dani suddenly blurted out. The two teens looked at Dani. "What?" Logan asked.

Dani looked at the ground and said, "No, I'm sorry... I didn't mean you had to get up, nor did I want you to leave. I haven't talked to anyone my age in months."

Grace sighed. "Look Dani, do you want to come home with me? I can get you some food and patch up your clothes and you can take a shower?" Dani sighed. "No... I don't need to be wasting your time and money." Now it was Grace's turn to sigh. "Dani, my family has plenty of money. I wouldn't mind helping a friend in need." She paused for a second, "Actually, I would hate myself for not helping a friend in need."

Dani perked up at this. "You sure?"

"Positive."

Dani smiled, "Thanks... so what way is it to your house?"

Grace smiled and pointed to a small apartment across the park. "The one with the red roof and smoke coming out of the chimney?"

"That's the one.

"Dani smiled and a thought came to her head. "Oh but one more thing."

Grace looked at Dani. "Hm?" But before she could do anything else, Dani ran up to her and said, "Tag! Your it!" And ran. Logan laughed and bolted, right behind Dani. Grace smiled and started running herself.

Dani was happy. Not only did she freed her bench from the two teens, she was also going to be cleaned and fed for once in a long while.

But best of all? She made friends.
