After spending the weekend exploring the place he would be staying in for the next ten mouths, it was time for his first day at school. "Danny, get up right now!" Whisper shouted floating in fount of the sleeping Danny's face.

"Five more minutes," Danny groaned as he rolled over. For the past couple of years ever since he gotten his ghost powers, Danny barely had gotten the chance to have a good night rest and he wasn't going to let this opportunity be wasted. Plus his body wasn't quite use to the time change as well.

"If you don't want to be late for your first day as an exchange student, then I suggest that you get up right this instant!" Whisper demanded.

With the feeling that the guy was not going to be letting up anytime soon, Danny gradually opened his eyes and then glared at what he saw. Whisper the marshmallow ghost was once again floating right up in his face. He wanted to blast the annoying Yo-Kai with an ectoblast right now, but knowing that it would give away his secret, he not so kindly pushed him away, "Can you please stay out of my face? I need to breathe you know."

"Well maybe if you woken up on time, I wouldn't have," Whisper retorted as he righted himself a bit surprised at the strength the boy had, "And you just may end up arriving on time if you hurry."

At hearing this, Danny's eyes went wide and he bolted up right, "Shoot! I'm late!" then he started getting ready for school.

Whisper watched in amazement at the speed the boy was going. He was sure he never saw anyone move like that before in a rush. "If only Nate would move like that to get ready for school."

In the middle of the rush, Jibanyan decided just then to come out of the closet. But at the same time Danny was going right by the closet and tripped right over the cat. "Ow, why are you in such a rush?" Jibanyan asked as he got back up and rubbed his head.

"I'm going to be late!" Danny answered as he got back up and started picking up the things he dropped.

"What do you mean? It's still pretty early, even Nate is still asleep," Jibanyan commented as he helped Danny pick his things up.

At hearing what Jibanyan said, Danny couldn't help but turn his gaze upon Whisper and glare angrily at him, "You mean that I'm not late?"

Whisper was sure he saw Danny's eyes glow bright neon green for a moment, but pushed it aside when a shiver went down his back from the anger in Danny's voice. "No, not at the moment. But you would have been late if you stayed in bed any longer."

Danny just sighed knowing that it was no use to argue over it, at least he was use to getting up at this time to fight ghosts. "Well, at least it wasn't a ghost attack that woke me," he whispered to himself as he put his things in his school bag. With the thought of ghost attacks in mind, he rushed over to one of his bags.

Both Jibanyan and Whisper made their over to Danny to see what he was after. But what they saw made them stare in confusion, "A thermos?" Whisper stated a bit confused.

"It's the Fenton Thermos," Danny stated, "Its designed to trap ghosts inside."

"Cool!" Jibanyan commented as he started thinking of how he could use it on a certain Yo-Kai.

"And why would it trap ghosts?" Whisper asked wanting to know why he had a ghost capturing device.

"My parents are ghost hunters," Danny answered, "And this is one of their inventions they created to capture ghosts once they are weakened. It's pretty useful if you want to stop a rampaging ghost that is trying to destroy your town."

"But does it work on Yo-Kai?" Whisper asked, he didn't like the idea of being caught in something that small.

"Let's see," Jibanyan responded as he grabbed the thermos from Danny, took the cover off and aimed it at Whisper. Then after pressing some random buttons, a blue beam shot out of it and sucked a surprised Whisper inside the device, "Awesome!"

"Hey, what's going on?" asked a dazed Nate who just woke up.

"I just caught a Whisper!" Jibanyan exclaimed happily holding the Fenton Thermos up proudly.

"Wait...what?" Nate asked confused, unsure if he heard his friend right.

"He was kind of testing out the Fenton Thermos on Whisper," Danny explained as he rubbed the back of his neck.

"Wait, so Whisper is in that?" Nate asked as he pointed to the thermos, "And it worked?"

"Yeah, he should be fine in it until we let him out," Danny answered, "Well that is if I remembered to empty it before I left."

"You mean there could be something else in that?" Nate asked as he took the thermos and looked it over.

"Yeah," Danny answered, "But I believe I emptied it before I left."

"Hey, maybe we should put him in this more often," Jibanyan suggested as he took the thermos back but accidently pressed the released button letting the butler out.

Once Whisper was fully out of the thermos, he turned to Danny and Jibanyan, "Do not do that again! Do you realize how cramped it is in there? And there nothing to do at all in there! Not even my Yo-Kai pad works in it!"

"We'll think about it," Danny told him completely understanding how cramped it got in there... In more than one occasion, "But if you keep on going into my face that's a different story."

"Well if you listen to what I have to say then we won't be having that problem," Whisper argued as he crossed his arms.

"And who said that I have to listen to you?" Danny argued back as he did his best to stop his eyes from glowing their ghostly green in anger.

"Because I'm one of the only ones here that you know that knows about Springdale and Yo-Kai," Whisper answered as he pounded his chest proudly.

"That doesn't mean I have to listen to you though," Danny told him. Right now the Halfa really wanted the Box Ghost to show up for once so he could trap him the thermos along with Whisper. He really wanted to know right now who would enjoy the other the most, the Box Ghost or the Marshmallow.

Before things could get worst, Nate decided to jump in, "Danny we should get ready to go soon," then he glared a bit at Whisper, "I don't want to be almost late again like last time."

"Hey don't blame me, I did wake you up. You just decided to go back to sleep," Whisper replied defensibly.

"Sure," Nate replied with as he got ready for school.

(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)

"So this is your school?" Danny asked standing in front of the school looking the building over.

"Yeah," Nate replied.

"This may be a weird question, but you don't happen to have frequent ghosts attacks?" Danny asked a bit uneasy with the question.

"Yo-Kais usually make appearances at the school to cause trouble, but nothing so bad to cause the school to be let out early," Whisper calmly answered.

"That's good to know," Danny replied with a sigh of relief, and then in a whisper said, "At least now I don't have to worry about ghost attacks."

"What was that?" Whisper asked hearing Danny whisper to himself.

"Nothing," Danny quickly replied with trying to cover himself up.

Whisper just gave Danny a weird look as they led him to the office and kept an eye on him the whole way as questions raced through his head. What was up with this boy? Why did he seem so comfortable around spirits but yet always have his guard up? And why was he asking if there were frequent ghost attacks? And why did he feel such great power the same day the transfer student arrived? Where the two connected somehow? Was Danny the source of the great power? He had to push that train of thought aside because how could Danny be the source of the power? He was just a simple human and there didn't seem to be anything special about him ether, so there was no way that train of thought could be true.

"Here we are," Nate informed him as he opened the door to the room where they saw Mr. Johnson.

Hearing the door open, Mr. Johnson turned and saw Nate and Danny enter, "You must be the transfer student, Daniel Fenton."

"That's me," the Halfa replied with a nod, "But please, call me Danny."

"Well then Danny, how about we head down to the classroom to introduce you to your new classmates," Mr. Johnson suggested.

With a nod from Danny and Nate in reply, they headed down to the classroom with a sign that read A-1. When Danny was about to follow Nate and Whisper inside the room, Mr. Johnson put his hand in fount of him to stop him, "How about you wait outside until I call you in."

"Yeah, I'll wait out here," Danny agreed with as he watched Mr. Johnson enter the room and left the door ajar.

As Danny waited to be called, he started to squeeze his backpack strips as he began to feel nervous. Sure he fought dangerous ghosts for a few years now, but now he was in a whole different area with people he knew nothing about. What are the people like? Are they as clueless as the ones back home? What if they find out who he is? Did they even know who Danny Phantom is? Is there going to be someone just like Dash here? Are the ghost from back home going to show up to ruin his vacation away from them? Was he worrying about nothing?

"Hey Danny, don't worry, everything will be fine," Jibanyan told him, "And don't worry about the kind of ghost attacks you get back home. All you really need to worry about if they will recognize you or not."

"If they do recognize me, I just hope they don't tell Nate or Whisper," Danny told him.

"I'm sure that most of them will keep their mouth shut," Jibanyan replied with, "And if they don't, they just have to deal with you then. Plus, I'm sure that no one will after they felt the power wave you let out the day you arrived."

"Wait, power wave?" Danny asked confused, he didn't remember ever letting out a huge wave of power when he got here.

"Yeah, I'm sure that all the Yo-Kai that are living in Springdale felt it."

"But I don't remember doing anything that caused a power wave to occur."

"Maybe it happened on its own."

"What do you mean?"

"Well, guessing from how you are more powerful than most ghosts that you usually fight and how you defeated the Ghost King, you must have a powerful spiritual energy surrounding you. So since you are in a new area, I'm betting that once you touched down on new ground, your spiritual energy must have reached out across the area letting other spiritual beings know that something powerful arrived."

"So that may have explained why all of those creatures all of a sudden started staring at me once I got out of the plane," Danny commented remembering the day he arrived in this haunted town.

"They must have felt your power level or recognized you."

From the other side of the door Danny could hear Mr. Johnson, "Good morning class."

"Good morning," came the reply of the class.

"Today, the exchange student from Casper High will be joining our class today," Mr. Johnson announced.

"Really?" someone asked.

"He's here already?" another student asked.

"Yes he is," Mr. Johnson could be heard replying, "Now, Danny you can come in now."

With that being said, Danny took one last deep breath and opened the door to enter the room. Inside the room he saw the kids seating in each row staring at him in wonder and saw Nate along with Whisper in the fount row by the window. "Now Danny, can you introduce yourself and tell everyone something about yourself."

"Um hi, I'm Daniel Fenton, but please call me Danny," the Halfa introduced a bit nervous, "I'm from Amity Park in the United States. I have a big interest in space and hope to become an astronaut one day. I hope that we will have a great time these next ten months."

"So, does anyone have any questions for Danny?" Mr. Johnson asked.

Someone raised their hand and when they were called on, they asked, "Danny is it true that Amity Park is also called the most haunted place on earth?"

"Um, yeah it is," Danny answered.

"Then is it true that there is a ghost there named Danny Phantom that is said to be a hero?" the same student asked.

"Y-Yeah," Danny answered once again becoming a bit nervous, he was somewhat hoping that no one here have ever heard of his alter ego, but it looked like luck wasn't on his side. Was it on his side at all?

"Have you ever met him?" someone else asked

"What is he like?"

"Is he just as powerful as other say he is?"

"Calm down everyone, you are supposed to ask questions about Danny, not questions about Danny Phantom," Mr. Johnson stated.

"Sorry," everyone replied with.

"Now, does anyone have any non Danny Phantom questions?" Mr. Johnson asked.

Danny couldn't help but inwardly smile, Mr. Johnson wanted them to ask questions about him but yet stop asking questions about him. "Danny, what do you think of Springdale so far?' someone asked after being called on.

"Well, from what I saw of it so far, I think it's great," Danny answered truthfully.

"Now, I think that is enough questions for now. Danny please take a seat beside Nate so we can begin," Mr. Johnson told him.

Danny nodded and took his seat beside Nate, "So Danny did you ever meet the Danny Phantom?" Whisper asked right away barely giving Danny the chance to sit down.

"Why are you wondering?" Danny asked still a bit nervous and hoping that no one will figure out that he was the renown known ghost boy.

"Because he is a great hero that many Yu-Kai look up to," Whisper replied excitedly, "I heard that he may be one of the most powerful spirits out there. From what I read, he was the one that took down and locked away Pariah Dark the tyrant Ghost King back into the Sarcophagus of Forever Sleep. It would be a great honor to meet him personally."

Danny had to hold himself back from cracking a smile or say something that would give himself away. He started to wonder how Whisper would act if he knew he was talking to his apparent hero right now. "Today we are go -yawn- going to -yawn- to-" Mr. Johnson started saying but the end couldn't say anything because of his yawning.

As the yawning started, Danny's ghost sense went off causing him to see his own breath. Seeing this, Danny couldn't help but groan and push aside the sleepiness that started to take over, "Not now. Who could it be this early in the morning? Hopefully it's not one of the trouble makers from back home."

Whisper who was floating not that far away noticed the strange mist that came from Danny and the annoyed groan that followed. What could have caused Danny to groan at seeing his own breath? But then again, how could he see Danny's breath? It wasn't even cold enough in the room for someone to see their own breath, so how could Danny's breath be seen? As the thoughts ran through the marshmallow ghost's head, he watched Danny as he looked around the area. When Nate came into the white Yo-Kai's view, he saw that the young lad was fighting not to fall asleep when the rest besides Danny were already fast asleep. Not wanting to see his master or friend fall asleep from the works of most likely a Yo-Kai, Whisper did the most reasonable thing and slapped Nate hard across the face to fully wake him up.

Nate sat up straight in his seat in shock from the slap across the face. He then glared at Whisper, "You didn't need to slap me across the face."

"Well what was I suppose to do to wake you?" Whisper asked him with his arms to the side.

"Wake me?" Nate asked a bit confused.

"Yeah, the whole class besides Danny fell asleep," Whisper informed him.

At this moment Nate finally noticed that pretty much his whole class was fast asleep. "This must be a Yo-Kai's doing," then he held out his arm, pressed a button on the Yo-Kai Watch which caused a blue beam to appear. He then aimed it at the spot that Danny was staring at causing a familiar Yo-Kai to appear. It looked like a purple and pink tapir with small dark purple ears and a dark purple tuff of fur on her tails. She had yellow eyes with red irises and black pupils, orange flower like design next to her eyes and sharp teeth.

"Whisper, Nate, is this another Yo-Kai you guys were talking about?" Danny asked doing his best not to get into his battle stance.

"Yeah, that's Baku, the Dream Eater Yo-Kai," Nate started to explain, "She is a Yo-Kai that would put people to sleep and eat their dreams."

"How does she eat people's dreams?" Danny asked starting to become a bit nervous. He wasn't sure what to do, should he try and find a place to transform? Or should he stay here and see how Nate will deal with it?

"She makes them into a dream cloud which shows them like a movie and then she eats the cloud."

"That's good to know," Danny stated, he had to make sure that he didn't get caught by that Yo-Kai and made him fall asleep. He didn't want to risk dreaming about anything that may reveal who he was.

Hearing the commotion in the room, Baku turned around to the face the gang. She looked each one over and when she landed on Danny, her eyes went wide and her smile went wide, "Is that who I think it is? I wonder what his dreams taste like."

"Oh oh," Danny said to himself after hearing what the Yo-Kai said. Not wanting to face the risk, Danny jumped up from his seat and dodged the sleep bubble sent at him. Making his way around Baku and the sleeping class he made his way out of the classroom.

"Come back here! Baku wants to see what your dreams taste like!" Baku called out as she chased after Danny.

Nate, Whisper and Jibanyan watched the two leave the classroom and were surprised how excited and badly Baku wanted to eat Danny's dreams. "I don't think I ever saw her wanting to eat someone's dream that badly before," Nate commented at the sight.

"I wonder why she wanted to eat his dreams. I don't see anything special about him that could make his dreams special," Whisper commented.

"Maybe she just thought that his dreams would be interesting when she never saw him around before," Jibanyan jumped in trying to cover Danny up.

"Come on, we better catch up to them and save Danny," Nate declared as he and Jibanyan raced out of the room.

"Yes we could, but why don't-" Whisper started but never finished when he noticed that the two were heading to the door, "Hey, wait for me!" he called out as he raced after them.

(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)

Out in the hallway Danny was busy running with Baku close on his tail, "Can you please stop chasing me!" Danny cried out as he looked behind him for a moment.

"I will as soon as I have a taste of your dream!" Baku called out not giving up on the chase.

"Why do you want to eat my dreams?" Danny asked as he turned the corner.

"Because I want to know what the dream of the Danny Phantom tastes like," Baku replied as she turned the corner as well.

"Great, another ghost or spirit after my dreams," Danny stated to himself remember the event with Nocturn as he went past a classroom; he quickly looked inside and saw that everyone was asleep. "Well, I guess everyone was put to sleep. So that means," Danny then quickly turned invisible letting Baku race by him.

Once the coast was clear, Danny turned visible again, just in time too because Nate, Whisper and Jibanyan came around the corner. "Danny, where is Baku?" Nate asked as he came up to him.

"She went down that way," Danny replied as he pointed down the hallway Baku went down.

"How were you able to escape her?" Whisper asked floating beside Nate.

"I hid in that classroom," Danny replied quickly as he pointed to the classroom behind him.

Before Whisper could question Danny's quick response, Baku could be heard calling out, "Danny Phantom, where are you?"

"Danny Phantom here?" Whisper called out excited then had his hand up in a salute position as he looked around, "Where?"

At that comment, Danny used his willpower to stop himself from facepalming, "Why is being famous always leading to something bad nowadays for me? Danny mumbled to himself dreading being famous at the moment. With the feeling of Baku coming back down the hall at any moment, Danny grabbed a hold of Nate's hand and pulled him back down the hall, "Come on, we need to find a place to hide."

Nate stumbled a bit from the sudden motion of being pulled and was surprised at how strong Danny was when he had a weak appearance. "I can summon another Yo-Kai to help us out," Nate suggested after a bit after they rounded a corner.

Danny thought about that option for a moment, should they risk bringing in another Yo-Kai into this matter? Danny shook his head; no he couldn't risk the chance of exposing who he was, not right now that is. Sure Nate knew a lot more about these creatures than he did, but he felt that he had to take care of this...attack... if you could call it one that is. If only he had something to conta- "How could I forget? Stupid! Stupid! Stupid! I'm going to lose my head one of these from forgetting something so simple," the Halfa scolded himself as he stopped running causing Nate to run into him.

"What did you forget? And how are you stupid?" Whisper asked curiously as to why the boy was scolding himself right at time like this.

"Why didn't I think about this in the first place?" Danny mumbled to himself ignoring the Marshmallow's question for the time being as he pulled out the Fenton Thermos from out of nowhere.

The gang just blinked at the sudden appearance of the thermos wondering where exactly it came from when they didn't see it on him before. "Where did that come from?" Nate asked quite confused, he didn't remember Danny ever taking it out of his backpack. But then again, did he even put it in his backpack?

"Fenton Family secret," Danny responded with a smirk as he waiting for the Yo-Kai that wanted to eat his dreams to appear.

After a bit, the Yo-Kai they been waiting for came charging down the hallway with great speed heading towards Danny. Not wanting to waste one more second of the time he had between him and the oncoming Yo-Kai, Danny took the cover off the thermos, aimed it at Baku and pressed a button causing a familiar light blue beam to come out of it. The beam hit Baku straight in the chest and with a force that she couldn't fight against, she started to be sucked inside. As she neared the thermos, the last thing she cried out before being sucked fully inside was, "But I just wanted to have a taste of your dreams!"

Danny let out a sigh of relief knowing that that event was over and his secret was safe for now as he recapped the thermos. "I thought she was after Phantom's dreams not yours Danny," Nate commented as he went into a thinking pose.

At that comment, Danny went rigid with the fear that Nate had figured it out so fast. Was his secret now out the window? Whisper noticed Danny's sudden stiffness and was about to ask what was bothering him when Jibanyan interrupted him, "Maybe she wanted to have both of their dreams?"

"She does enjoy eating people's dreams," Nate commented excepting Jibanyan's response.

"We better get back to class," Danny tells them jumping out of his sudden shock, thankful for Jibanyan's assistance for drawing attention away from him on the topic before anyone could make a connection. "We don't want it to seem suspicious of us being there one second and gone the next."

"But, aren't you going to let Baku go?" Nate asked as he pointed to the thermos in Danny's hand.

Danny looked at the thermos that now housed the spirit in question and shrugged, "I will later. I rather her bring trapped in the thermos then having the chance of her coming back later on to cause trouble."

"Good enough for me," Nate replied with as he and Danny headed back to class with Jibanyan not that far behind.

Whisper was there floating in mid air, too deep in thought to notice the group departing back to class. How was Danny not freaking out from the sudden appearance of Baku? He remembered how Nate kept on freaking out in the start whenever a Yo-Kai appeared out of nowhere and started to cause trouble, but Danny was different, it was as if he was used to this kind of thing. Was it because of the ghost attacks he had back at his home or was it because of something else? Also was Phantom really here? Is there a chance that he may still be around so he could meet his hero? Finally noticing that the group was almost out of earshot, he called out, "I'm going to see if the Ghost Boy is here! I'll catch up with you three in a bit!" He then took off without waiting for a reply.

"Man, too bad we have to get back to class," Nate pouted, "I was hoping get the chance to meet Phantom..."

Danny was doing his best to not laugh right there and now at Nate complaint and it looked like Jibanyan was having the same problem. If only they knew that the ghost Whisper was looking for and Nate wanted to meet was standing right beside Nate right now as Whisper went on a wild goose chase.

(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)

Later that night, Danny found himself standing in the forest where no one would be able to see him and where people would less likely show up at this late hour. Once he was sure he was all alone, he took a deep breath and was ready for whatever was going to happen next. He took the cover off the thermos, pointed it at the ground, pressed the release button and in a blink of an eye, Baku was standing before him with her back facing him. "Um, hey," Danny said trying to get the spirit's attention.

The dream eater jumped in surprised at the sudden sound and turned around to see Danny standing there before her in his human form. "Has Ghost Boy come to see Baku?" She asked hopefully.

"Something like that," Danny confessed as he rubbed the back of his neck not very sure how to start.

"What do you mean? Baku asked confused.

"Well its about what happened earlier today when you started yelling out my name in front of Nate and Whisper," Danny explained a bit nervously.

Baku blinked a few times as she thought over what Danny said when it came to her, "Nate and Whisper doesn't know who you are?" When she saw Danny nod, she gained a frown, "Baku didn't mean to cause any trouble."

"I know, just can you watch what you say next time?" Danny asked understanding that it must have been a surprised to see him here.

"Baku will, and will tell others as well," Baku assured him with a smile.

"Thanks!" Danny said with a sigh of relief, "I better get going before Nate, Jibanyan and the Marshmallow wonder where I disappeared off to. See ya," he then summoned his transformation rings, transforming him into Phantom and took off as he turned invisible.

Baku stood there staring in the direction that the Ghost Boy took off in for a bit before taking off herself.

Well here is the next chapter for Not a Yo-Kai? Sorry that it took so long to update this story, I had a bit of a hard time deciding what I should do at the part where they were running away from oh so fearsome Baku! At first, I was going to get Nate to summon Yo-Kai to help them out, but had a hard time deciding which Yo-Kai should be summoned, so it caused this story to be put aside for a few weeks...or was it a month? Either way, I got back to it and change some things around so I could get it done. I may get Nate to summon a Yo-Kai in the next chapter...or not...you just have to read and find out for yourself. Oh, and did any of you get the unplanned reference at the beginning of the chapter? Because it caught off guard when I found it! :P

...

...

Oh wait, Nate won't be able to summon a Yo-Kai next chapter because I just remember something else I had planned for it. Remember how some of you- or was it most of you? Oh well, but tons of you wanted to have some chapter dedicated to what is going on at the school that Dash got sent off to I have some funny stuff planned for that. Oh, and who knows, I may just make that Danny's and Dash's oh so vacations collide to make it even more interesting.

Until next time, Flare, over and out!
