For most students it was just another normal day at Casper High, well that is if you're not Danny or Dayla Fenton. Everything seemed quiet until, Danny burst through the doors screaming in fright and then bolted in a run, behind him was Dash Baxter who screamed in anger and then continued to chase after him down the halls while holding a piece of paper in his hand.

"Moving! Gotta keep moving!" Danny panted out as he ran.

"That's it Fenton! Run! But I'm taking this D we got on our spelling test out of your hide!" Dash shouted.

"Every time he fails, he comes after me!" Danny exclaimed. Dash roared out in anger again.

Meanwhile in another part of the school, Dayla just came out of the art room and then bumped into Valerie Gray accidently, which caused her to drop her sketchbook and pencils on the ground.

"Oh man! Sorry about that I didn't see you" Dayla apologised as she bent down to pick up her stuff.

Valerie then noticed the open sketchbook and couldn't help but gaze at them, she bent down and picked it up and looked through it.

"Did you draw these?" Valerie asked.

Dayla was shocked at first, because Valerie didn't really speak to her due that she was part of the popular kids of the school. She answered as she stood up, "Uh yeah I did"

Valerie handed her sketchbook back and said with a smile, "I think they're good"

Dayla looked at her and gave her a smile, sure Valerie was part of the popular kids but she could see there was something different about her. She wasn't fully like Paulina. Speaking of Paulina, she while holding a coffee and Kwan then came up to them.

"Hey Valerie. Like I so much love that top" Paulina complimented on Valerie's new purple t-shirt.

"Isn't it sweet? Five hundred and seventy-nine dollars and worth every one of my dad's pennies" Valerie said.

"That is a nice top, I saw something similar at another store. I think the one there though was only twenty-nine dollars" Dayla said.

Paulina snickered and exclaimed, "Yeah because that's where ugly art freaks like you shop!"

Both of them then laughed at her, Dayla grit her teeth and looked down. Valerie on the other hand just remained silent, suddenly they all stopped as they saw Danny coming round the corner, he looked back for a second but then gasped as he realised he was about to collide with Paulina.

He pressed tried to stop himself, but it was too late as he bumped into Paulina and made her spill her coffee, Valerie braced herself for impact and hoped the coffee wouldn't get on her shirt, but when she didn't feel anything on her, she opened her eyes to reveal Dayla had taken the hit.

"Are you okay?" Dayla asked.

Valerie just nodded her head, she was shocked that Dayla would do that for her and they weren't even friends, they then both heard a squeal from Paulina.

"Those freaks have caused a coffee stain on my shoes! Kwan hurt the freaks for me!" Paulina demanded at the tall jock.

"Hey accidents happen" Kwan said as he first shrugged it off. Paulina then grabbed him by the collar and growled at him.

"Alright!" Kwan said changing his mind.

Danny then grabbed Dayla and the two began to run as now Kwan chased after them. They ran down the hallway and then gasped as they also saw Dash coming down from the other end.
