The Boy I Found (A Danny Phantom Fanfic)

Chapter 1: Moving Sucks

Hello, everybody! :D

First off, I am a super bad girl. :C

I feel terrible because I meant to get this out last week, but I never got to it due to worrying my head off about a family issue, but it's all better now and I feel great, along with FINALLY remembering to post! XD

I'm afraid I'm still getting used to Wattpad, but I believe I'm getting the hang of it!

Anyway, back to the story. This is a Danny Phantom A.U., and I'm slightly nervous. This is mainly due to the fact that I've never created an alternate universe for anything before, so it'll be interesting. I hope you all enjoy the first chapter, and thanks for being patient with me! :)

Sam stared out her window with a solemn storm clashing and brewing through her head. She was still upset about them having to move from their home in Virginia to some small city in Minnesota. All she could see was wilderness for miles around their car, nothing but forests and marshes. Honestly, why would she want to live in a remote area anyway? Hardly anyone lived out here and the city they were moving to, Amity Park, would only have a few people there. Okay, that was a slight over exaggeration, it was more like five hundred people or more, but she didn't care. She had lived in a large, busy city for most of her life. Absolutely anything less populated than that felt strange, and almost alien to her. With a long sigh, she curled up in the backseat, sulking some more as she glared at the scenery whizzing by on the other side of the glass.

What she saw through that window might as well have been the bizarre world an astronaut saw through the hull of a spaceship. It certainly made her feel like an astronaut. The land around their car seemed absolutely wet, full of lakes and rivers which confused her to no end. More so all the trees that covered everything, everywhere, and even the mountains were strange! They seemed much more jagged then the ones she was used to from their trips back in her old home. It was all mixed up and weird and absolutely wrong. It was nothing like her little world back in Virginia at all!

Turning away from it, not before she gave her reflection in it one last stink eye, she reached down and snagged her iPod from one of the many bags and luggage piled at her feet and placed the earbuds in her ears. She closed her eyes and leaned her head back against the seat as she listened to her favorite songs. She continued being gloomy for a moment until her dad attempted to get her attention from the front. She didn't notice with her eyes still being shut, shunning the outside world, so her mother reached over from the passenger seat and pulled the earplug from her right ear, letting it fall into her lap. Successfully catching her attention, Sam opened her violet eyes with a cold glare of annoyance.

"Sweetie, we're almost there!" Her red-headed mother, Pamela, exclaimed in an overly cheerful voice.

"You excited to see our new home?" her blonde father, Jeremy, asked, just as jubilantly, possibly more.

Sam rolled her eyes, sinking down into her seat further before letting out a small muffled 'no.' She definitely wasn't looking forward to seeing her new home. Especially in some crummy place called Amity Park. She didn't need to even see the place, she could already tell that things were going to be super boring there.

Her mother caught the response and gave her a crestfallen frown.

"Why aren't you excited, sweetie? You'll get to make new friends, live in a new place, and, let's not forget, it's your first year of high school! Why, Jeremy, dear, remember our freshman year?" She asked, turning back to face her husband beside her as he concentrated on the road ahead of them.
