Destiny. It is our future. It is set in stone, or is it? I have changed my destiny before. I am in control of my future, aren't I? Or is every decision that I make already planned out for me? Am I just traveling a path already laid out for me, or am I making my own path? Are we ever going to figure out this great mystery of life? It definatly wouldn't be easy since you don't even know in your after life. Could someone else figure this out for you? If they could, they would truly be something. How can someone else figure this out of you can't even figure it out yourself? Destiny. It's truly a mystery. One that we might never figure out. Destiny. What does that even mean? Does it even mean anything if it can't be proven as true? Destiny. It's the biggest mystery of them all.

I look up at my student sleeping in his desk. If only he could try this hard on his regular assignments and not just the extra credit work that I give to him in detention everyday. Danny suddenly sits up in his seat so fast that it takes me a minute to process what just happened. His icy-blue eyes bare into me as though he is looking through me.

"Did I get the extra credit points?" He asks after a minute.

"Yes, you did a fine job on it, Mr. Fenton," I say after processing what he just said.

"Can I go now?" Why is he always in such a hurry?

"See you tomorrow, Mr. Fenton."

"Mr. Lancer?" I thought that he wanted to leave.

"Yes?"

"You can call me Danny." He leaves after saying that and I allow myself to smile before grading papers. That boy had a heck of a destiny in front of him if he keeps making the choices that he has been making recently.

A/n I do not own Danny Phantom. Should I make this into a story, or keep it a one shot?
