No fairtale

A Danny Phantom Fanfic

"SAMANTHA! HURRY UP! IT'S TIME FOR SCHOOL!" a loud, shrill voice shouted angrily, making the person in question jump awake from her dreams.

'Samantha' know as Sam to everyone except her parents, retaliated by grumbling curses about being awaken so early and got up to get ready for the day. Looking through her clothes of her walk in closet, she decided on wearing a black singlet with a grey cardigan over the top, with black jeans and black converse with the shoe laces being purple, Yeah she likes black, she is Goth after all.

After brushing her teeth and applying some purple eye shadow with purple lipstick, she decided to go downstairs and have breakfast with the people she calls family. Walking down the stairs, she could see her parents at the kitchen table, her father reading the morning paper while her mother in all her pink-loving glory was picking out more expansive hair products for her fluffed up hairdo.

Seating herself next to her father and opposite to her mother (thank goodness), she started eating her toast with a cup of juice. No one really talked except for the occasional 'got anything on after school' or 'had a nice sleep', which she only answered half heartedly to. After a long pause her mother sighed and put her ridiculous magazine down on the table, and looked at her with the same look she always has when she's about to lecture her. Here we go.

"Samantha, why didn't you at least try the dress I put out for you? You would have looked stunning!".

With a sigh and an eye roll she answered with the line she knows off the tip of her tongue. "Mum, I am a night creature; I won't wear pink or any bright colours that you push in my face. I would rather sing 'barbie girl' while wearing a chicken costume, so don't ask, suggest or even beg me to." And with that she put her dishes in the sink, grabbed her bag, said a quick farewell and was out the door.

Yeah, she didn't really get along with her parents, mostly her mum but her dads alright, he just always takes her mums side no matter what and they don't really talk. It was just mainly her mum, always trying to make her wear pink, go to those little get to gathers her mum goes to, or worse 'date' the guys that she approves ..No.

No way, no she was completely the opposite of her mother's expectations, always wearing dark colours mainly black or purple, never going to her mother's outings, sneaking out at night to see her favourite band 'Dumpty Humpty', so no nothing like the perfect daughter her mum wants. Heck, one of the reasons why she turned Goth was to tick her mum off.

Realizing she was just around the corner from her school, she doubled her pace, trying to get there as quick as she can to meet with Tucker. Tucker- the only friend she ever had, the only soul person she could rely on. He was the only person to except her for who she was and give her a second glance, for that she was ever grateful.

Finally there, she started looking around the cluster of school kids to see if she could get a glimpse of him through the crowd. She was about to give up and just go inside when she saw it, a glimmer of red in the corner of her eye. You could even see his beret from a mile away. Walking over to him she could see he was leaning against the wall, looking at his PDA, fingers tapping rapidly while eyes wide starring at the screen, mouth slightly open, never once leaving eye contact. Typical tucker, she thought now standing right in front of him, him still not noticing her appearance.

Tucker Foley is an African American 16 year old, with really short black hair, kind of like hers but more brown. He wore a yellow long sleeved shirt with cargo pants that reached his knees, bright red beret and had big black rimmed glasses framing his face. He was tall, and was more on the scrawny side but still got some muscles- not enough to stand up for himself though, that was her expertise. He was always joking around and sees positive in life, but he was a HUGE flirt, especially with girls who never notice his presence even if he was the last person on earth. And if you haven't guessed it yet, he is a HUGE techno-geek. Yeah, it got to the point where she thinks it's a sickness.

Losing the last of her patience, she quietly snuck up right next to him and put her face in position near his ear, smiling. "TUCKER!" she yelled at the top her lungs, quickly stepping back so not to get hit in the face by his now dropped PDA. Tucker in return gave a really girly squeal, much to her amusement and dropped his 'baby'. Turning his head to look at his tormenter, instead to see Sam standing there with the back of her hands on her hips, looking like she was trying to keep a straight face, only made him calm down a little until he realised what actually happened and scowled.

"Sam-what the hell?!" he yelled while picking up his PDA, treating it like it was his lifeline, which only made her roll her eyes and smirk. "What? Just thought I'd awaken you from your brainwashing moment "she said matter-of-factly.

Rolling his eyes, he looked at his PDA, checking it to see if it was broken. Finally confirming it was A-Okay, he turned back to Sam, pointing to his PDA while scowling. "You see this? If this were to break-I would have lost nearly all of my stuff; videos, pictures, documents, Sam- I would of lost all my assignments! Do you know how much trouble it took to hack into the school system to get all of them? No you don't, so never do that again!" Wow, that didn't surprise her, she could have seen that lecture coming from a mile aw- he did what!?

"You did what!?" she yelled, attracting some attention from kids close by. "You said that you couldn't, because of how your new computer was not set up yet! And I think you've had enough time to tell me that it was finished!" Sam was a little pissed off about how he didn't tell her, she could of got a good grade on her science project, but instead got a 'D' for not actually writing about 'The human body and its system', instead wrote about animal writes-all because she was busy with a animal protest that went on for 3 days straight!

"Wellllll, I...umm, you see" Anyone could see he was trying to come up with an excuse, failing miserably.

"You didn't tell me, because you wanted all the answers for yourself, am I right?" she asked with annoyance mixed with anger into it, another thing tucker is; being greedy- especially when it comes to meat, Yuck!

"Maybe?" he said making it sound like a question, while scratching the back of his head, not looking at her face, afraid she would see the truth. Well she did. "You know what? Just forget it, what's done is done" she said rolling her eyes, while punching his arm in a friendly way, letting him know he was forgiven anyway.

"Brrrrring!" the sound of the school bell ringing, got the students to know it was time for first class and to move their butts. Her and Tucker had first class together, so the two of them walked to their class, Tucker joking around all the way there, while Sam just shook her head at her friend. They walked in to the classroom-Sam sitting in the middle row of seats with Tucker behind her.

The subject was English, one of her favourite subjects. All the old dark poetry and classical stories which were beautifully and expertly done, it was her weak spot and when she visits the library she would always go crazy and buy nearly every single one of the dark and creepy stories/poems, much to her mother's dismay. But good things never last, for the only upside of being in this class, the one thing she didn't want to happen and ruin her lesson, what is it you ask? Well its none other than; Nicole Stephen (gage). Nicole was the 'it' girl, the one who everyone loves and adores (except her and the other kids who've been bullied by her). The one that gets everything and anything, the one with beautiful bleach-blonde wavy hair that reaches to her lower back, sparkly-but evil light brown eyes, sun-kissed skin with the body every girl would die for, wears the shortest shorts around and a top that shows cleavage- yet never gets in trouble for wearing them. The one every guy wants and the one who has bullied Sam her entire school life, which obviously makes them arch-enemies.

And the worst thing is she sits right next to her. Joy...

Sam looked up, only to see the queen-bee herself walk through the door, head held high. Great. Sam turned a little in her seat so her back was slightly to Nicole, not in the mood for her and her insults. "Sam" she herd Nicole say in 'greeting', sounding disgusted just saying her name. Sighing she turned around planning on tying to ignore her, but it was extremely hard when you have someone right next to you, especially if it's someone you can't stand.

After the teacher (Mr Trey) got everyone to sit down, he told everyone to get a book that they were currently working on and told people to start reading. Not hearing any insults from next to her she looked in the corner of her eye to see Nicole reading while chewing bubble gum. Maybe she's finally over annoying me. With that thought she went back to reading.

It was 15 minutes into the lesson that Sam was just about to turn to page 134- when the teacher told everyone to stop what they were doing. Thinking the teacher just forgot to mark the roll again, she just kept reading-until she heard the whole class groaning, she looked up in confusion only to see the teacher holding a test sheet and groaned as well. Just when I thought it was going to be a good day to.

After getting her test sheet, Sam started writing obediently, trying to remember bits about the book. 5 minutes into the test time, she felt someone tap her shoulder. Turning she saw Nicole giving her a smile-what? Looking at where the teacher was, so she wouldn't get caught, only to see him almost asleep, she turned back and gave a small- almost a grimace-smile. "Um, yes?" she asked trying not to sound freaked.

Nicole didn't say anything except point to a note resting on her test sheet, and then gave her a sign to come closer and read it. Looking a little on edge Sam moved closer to Nicole's side and read the not;

THIS IS WHAT YOU GET, YA FREAK!

What the hell does that mean-but before she could finish her thought, Nicole had already called the teacher over (making him jump awake from his nap) and said with the 'I'm-a-suck up' voice she uses to get what she wants.

"Yes, miss Stephen?" Mr Trey asked a little annoyed about being awakened.

"Mr Trey, I noticed Samantha is trying to cheat by copying off my work"

What!? Why the hell would she copy when she knows the answers to begin with? Looking around she could see they had the whole class's attention on them, sighing she knew she couldn't get out of this one-I mean it did look like she was cheating with her practically leaning over so that she could see what the note read. And I thought she changed to being nice, I walked right into that one.

Mr Trey looked at Sam with disappointment in his eyes and a frown on his tired face. "Miss Manson, I am very disappointed in you- please give me your test sheet, you will not only get zero on your test but a week's detention."

Groaning she handed her sheet in and glared at Nicole who gave a smirk in return. Sam put her head on her desk-wishing the day was already over with.

"See ya Tuck!" Sam said while walking in the opposite direction to the techno-geek. It was finally the end of school and everyone was either sleeping over a friend's house or going to the mall. Finally, it's Friday.

Sam thought happily, thinking about how she was going to spend her weekend. Nothing like staying in your room all day reading. Walking up the steps that lead to her house- well actually it was a mansion, one of the biggest in the town actually. Yep, there family were in fact rich. Really rich.

It was her great-great-grandfather who made some kind of invention that ended up working and made millions. The family fortune (company) was passed down when her dad inherited it about the time he turned 21. That's what her parents want for her, to finally take over the company after school and make more fortune. Then when her kids are old enough they will take over. It was a cycle known to the Manson's ever since the start of the 'famous invention', that she did not want to be a part of.

Heading straight to her room, she got started on her homework, then after she was done, got out the book she started reading last week and let the book take her away from life and all her problems.

*SOMETIMELATER*

"Samantha?" groaning Sam rolled over to a new position and answered her mother lazily with a quick 'come in'.

Entering the door, Pamela Manson looked at her daughter's room in slight disgust, though she was trying to hide it. Black floor-length curtains were flowing gracefully from the window being open. There was dark purple paint for wallpaper, with black carpets as black as Sam's laptop. The final touch with 'Dumpty Humpty' posters were hung anywhere on the wall as well as other punk rock bands she liked.

"Samantha, me and your father would like you to come down stairs please, it's important" Pamela said with a 'you better be down there' voice, then quickly left like the room was suffocating.

"It's always important" Sam sighed, while getting off the bed and heading down the stairs. I wonder what it is this time.

Seating herself on the coach in front of her parents, she looked at them expectantly-trying to get whatever they had to say over with so she could go to her room and finish her book. Looking at each other with hesitant faces, and then looking back at their daughter, they both took big breaths before her father started to talk. "Samantha, I have some news to tell you" He stopped and looked at Sam, who gave him a 'This is getting boring', kind of look.

"Well, something has happened-something unfortunate" They shared one more look before her mum decided to step in and say, "Your grandmother-Ida- I'm afraid has had an accident." She said with a sad tone to her voice.

"W-what?" Sam asked shocked and scared. Her grandma is one of the only family members she liked to be around and loves her dearly. She could easily remember all the places she used to take her, all the stories she used to read to her to try and get her to sleep. They told each other everything, and when she ever needed advice- instead of going to her parents, she would go too her grandma, she always had good advice.

But she got sick, her mum and dad thought it would be better to send her to a retirement home but Ida refused to move into a "Prison-cell" as she liked to call it. So they let her move into a house near the most expansive hospital they could, which was in another city. It was hard to say goodbye-but her grandma said she would visit soon and that they could go on fun adventures just how they used to. She never got to though, something happened to her hip and her doctor told her it was too risky.

She hasn't seen her in a while.

Looking at each other again, her mum took her hand and gently squeezed it before continuing. "She fell while in the shower and hurt her hip again, the doctors who operated on her said she was lucky-but just to be safe they wanted us to move her to a retirement home, where she'll have someone to look after her twenty-four-seven. But your stubborn grandma won't let us- so I and your father have done some talking and we think it would be best if-umm..." she stopped there, not knowing how to say the rest of the sentence.

Sam didn't understand why she couldn't tell her the rest; she didn't think things could get worse. "Mum, what's going on?" Sam said while giving them a confused- yet suspicious look, looking at each other once more (which they seem to do a lot), and her father straightened his poster like he was preparing himself for something big to happen.

"Uh, we are-um- where only doing this because we love your grandma very much-and I know you won't like it at first but keep in mind that it's for the best that, uh" getting irritated, Sam took a deep breath and asked with the calmest voice she could master up without sounding like a complete brat.

"Can you please just spit it out already?" Again another glance at each other before her mum answered with hesitating eyes.

"Where...moving in with your grandma, in...Amity Park"
