Hi! Last chapter!
Enjoy!
It couldn't be much worse than Dash and Kwan. Nothing was.
"Jazz!" Yelled Danny as he ran up the stairs, knocking, no, wait, banging, on his sister's door.
"What?!" Yelled a highly annoyed Jazz. Danny grew an evil smirk.
"Fine, I was going to talk, but it's okay, just wondering if you wanted to know—" The door opened, and Danny smiled. His sister almost retorted to the 'I knew it' smile, but she held her tongue. Over the next half hour, Danny told Jazz everything. How much the portal had hurt, what his nightmares were about, but nothing about the favorite child dilemma. She wouldn't understand. He felt like a weight had been pulled off his shoulders, and he also told her about Dash and Kwan knowing, plus Danielle.
Her expressions to Danielle were hilarious. Shock, bewilderment, anger, and then giddiness. Even the way she asked to meet her, he rolled over laughing. She was angry at his rolling on the floor laughing, panting from all the laughter.
For the first time in a long time, he realized, after dinner, staring at his ceiling, he felt free. "Maybe telling Dash and Kwan wasn't so bad." Snuggling into the covers, he muttered, "Thanks, Clockwork." Before snoozing. He had school tomorrow.
~~~~ Clockwork!
Clockwork stood in front of the time stream, looking at Daniel's face, having a while ago shook Dan and his thermos like a milkshake.
"Thanks, Clockwork." Muttered Danny before falling asleep.
"You're welcome, Daniel." Said Clockwork, smiling in his adult form. Even if the world through all the shit in the world at Danny, he would always pull through.
"And good night." Turning away from the stream for a moment, he heard Dan sigh.
"Ninety nine bottles of beer on the wall, ninety nine bottles of beer!" Sang Dan from inside the thermos, Clockwork chuckled, Dan never seized to amuse him.
"Keep singing and the thermos might get a good shake!" Said Clockwork, now in toddler form, who returned to facing the time stream.
"Take one down, pass it arou—" Dan stopped singing the moment Clockwork finished his threat. Clockwork chuckled, Dan and Danny were hilarious…
And yet, he kept his eyes on the time stream, wondering how they did it.
I thought of Dan singing that song and trying to annoy Clockwork. Hey, the boys in that field trip did it, and successfully almost got bashed in the head by students because of it.
Bye! Thank you for your follows, favorites, and reviews!
