The Phantom Assassin

The Phantom Assassin: Chapter One

Japan, freaking Japan! His parents have brought them to other places across the country to hunt ghost, but this was usually during summer vacation, so not to distract their schooling. Instead this time they decided to move the whole family halfway across the world. They were currently driving to their new home, according to his mom both he and Jazz got accepted in some big time school called Kunugigaoka. Jazz was in high school still but because of the different school, he was but back in middle school, or Junior high here. He was alone in this new school, without his friends to help him cover if he needed to go ghost, even his sister would be in a different school. Jazz seemed excited as apparently, this school is one of the best school in Tokyo, but Danny honestly could careless. He'd still have bad grades once the ghosts started to figure out where he was. Not to mention Vlad seemed to be trying harder with his schemes to make Danny's life harder. He wouldn't put it past him to come to Japan, he has the money after all.

At least his parents won't being paying much attention to him while he's here, this ghost seems inclusive, if there even is a ghost. He has never seen a yellow ghost in the zone before. No one has ever seen it either, it's only a flash of yellow and then it's gone. He should probably look around later tonight for it, his ghost sense would pick it up if the ghost was around. He was grateful towards Clockwork as well. The said ghost helped him learn Japanese fluently so he spoke it now almost as well as he spoke English. It was about midday when they reached their new house. It looked nothing like their old one, it was two stories sure, but the house itself was bigger and shorter. He sighed as he got out of the car grabbing his stuff he needed to unpack as he headed up to the room that would now be his for this year. Jazz seemed more excited about the move, and he didn't blame her. She had always better at everything than he was, but she never really had close friends. This time around everyone would be as smart as her and she could fit in nicely. He, on the other hand, was going to E class right from the start, he didn't mind going in the class for kids with the lowest grades, though. It meant the teacher probably gave up teaching anything and he could escape more easily if need be. Though if he was lucky he could actually take a break from ghost fighting for a while. Though of course, he'd still train when he could, as he didn't want to lose touch with his ghost half.

His thoughts were cut short as he reached his new room, he looked around at the plain walls and looked down at the boxes he finished bring up. His furniture was already placed in his room as now he just had to decorate it. He shut the door and locked it as started to unpack everything. His laptop going on his desk, his posters going on the wall, they were a mix between NASA and Humpty Dumpty. His rocket models he carefully placed on his shelves as he then smiled as this was the fun part. He took out his glow in the dark stars as he flew up towards the ceiling. This always took him hours but it was worth it, he slowly started to place them on the ceiling so they matched the starry sky that he always saw back home. His favorite thing was flying, but the next best thing was looking up at the stars at night, this was the best way he could get that feeling in his room. When he was finished he flew back down and laid on his bed staring up at the ceiling, it wasn't dark yet up he could make the lines around the stars so he admired his work for a while listing of the constellations that he placed on his ceiling.

He sat there for a while until a knock came at his door, he sighed as he stood up and answered it seeing his mom there. "Hey sweetie, don't forget that you have that meeting today at school." She told him. "Jazz is going to drop you off." She explained.

Danny just rolled his eyes, "Yeah I know, Do I really have to go?" He asked her. He didn't see why he needed to head to some meeting for his Class. Jazz didn't. He was hoping his mom would let him get out of it but with the look she gave him he could tell no such luck was happening.

"Danny you need to go to this meeting if you want to or not. Be downstairs in five minutes to leave." She warned him as she walked back downstairs to unpack some more.
