Here we see Danie sitting inside of her mailbox, happily humming. She checks his watch. The mailman  arrives, opens the mailbox, and Danie suddenly pops out.

Danie: Hi mailman!

The mailman drops his mail, screams in terror and runs away.

Danie: Okay *gets out of the Mailbox* See you tomorrow!

Danny: *Walks up* Hey the mails here, what'd you get?

Danie checks the mail and she sees some magazines.

Danie: Yes! My subscription to Red Panda's monthly is here.

Danny: Red pandas? Really?

Danie: Hey next to cats and dogs, red pandas are absolutely adorable.

Danie then sees another magazine with her picture on the cover.

Danie: Ooh guess who made the cover of Tanned Teens monthly, this gal.

Danny: Nice congrats Danie.

Danie: Thanks, this is actually my 15th year in a row I made it onto the cover. Mostly because of my flawless skin.

Danny: You don't have a mole?

Danie: Uh, no why do you ask?

Danny: Well before you got here Star outed Paulina about having a mole on her back and well…

Danie: Ohh… gotcha. But come on, that's nothing to be ashamed about.

Danny: Not according to Paulina.

Danie: I don't get it, weren't they friends?

Danny: Well not really Star was blinded by being popular not realizing she was a huge jerk and she stopped being friends with Paulina and… well I it's better if Star explains it.

Danie: Gotcha.

Later on, we see Danie walking home after doing a long photoshoot as she walks inside Fenton works and slumps onto the couch as Danny sees her.

Danny: Long day?

Danie: Yeah… I had to do three photoshoots today, one in a bikini, one as a scientist, and a nature themed one too. *Stretches a bit* Mmm, now I just wanna rest.

Danny blushed a bit at the thought of Danie wearing a bikini.

Danie: Danny… are you thinking about me in a bikini? *Giggles* you have a girlfriend remember.

Danny: *Snaps out of his thoughts and blushes* No! No! I was not thinking about that! Not that at all! I was thinking of Star in a bikini.

Danie: Danny…?

Danny: Okay… maybe a little, sorry.

Danie: It's okay, I don't blame you, I do have a habit of being the center of attention.

Danie took off her shoes and socks as she reached between the couch and pulled out a fluffaloafs and ate it.

Danny: You keep snacks between the couch? In here?

Danie: Not just the couch, I keep some in my closets, under the bed…

The duo then hear something spilling followed by Jazz screaming.

Jazz: *Off-screen* Danie!

Danie: And a year's supply in Jazz’s room. I couldn't find any room at my place so I put half of my supply in here.

Danny: *Chuckles* Impressive, wait what about my folks?

Danie: Don't worry I already told your parents, your dad said I was a genius.

Danny: Yeah anything when it comes to food.

Danie: Yep, I better help Jazz.

We later see Danie arrive at Jazz’s room where she sees the girl buried under a mountain of Fluffaloafs as she popped her head up and looked at Danie with a glare.

Jazz: Really Danie?

Danie: What? My closet at home was full so I moved it here.

Jazz: In my room?

Danie: Do you really want zombie food in the Fenton lab? Or in my parent's lab?

Jazz: ….Good point.

Danie: Thank you.

Jazz: *Sighs* Your welcome *eats one of the Fluffaloafs* Mmm, not bad.

Danie: Thanks. *Sees the mess* Boy, someone should really clean up that mess.

Jazz: Really? This is your food!

Danie: Yeah, buuut it's your room so… consider this my generous donation, have fun.

Danie teleported, leaving Jazz in the snack mountain.

Jazz: This is so going in my memoir.

We later fade to Danie and the others walking through town with Danie eating some fluffaloafs and washing it down with a cream soda as she then lets out a loud belch.

Danie: Excuse you.

Star: *Laughs* Nice one, Danie.

Danie: Thanks, *Burps* Ooh pardon moi.

Sam: Really Danie?

Danie: Oh relax Sam you guys can have some.

Sam: Uh, hello, ultra recyclo vegetarian.

Danie: Why would you eat compost? That's disgusting.

Danny, Tucker and Star laughed at what Danie said much to Sam's annoyance, recalling that her old menu change didn't work.

Danny: *Laughs* No, no, it's just a fancy way of saying Sam's a vegan.

Danie: Ohhh… gotcha. That makes more sense. Then why don't you say you're vegan?

Sam: Because it's too mainstream. Ultra recyclo vegetarian is way better and more unique.

Danie: All you did was put two words in front of vegetarian, honestly, that doesn't really sound all that unique.

Sam: *Irked* It is too unique!

Danie: In what way is it unique? It just sounds too pretentious sounding.

Tucker: She's not wrong.

Tucker then Sees Sam glaring at him but he wasn't phased by it.

Tucker: What? it's true *Eats a fluffaloaf* Mm, and this stuff is amazing.

Danny: Heh yeah, Danie here has a large collection of snacks.

Star: How large?

Danie: I couldn't fit anymore in my room so I stored my food at Danny's place. And it filled up my entire closet at home.

Tucker: Uh don't you need clothes in your closet?

Danie: Relax, I have two closets, one for food and the other for clothes. Plus Mr and Mrs Fenton don't mind. Or more specifically, Mr. Fenton doesn't mind, he said I was a genius.

Sam: *Sarcastically* Of course he did.

Danie: Yeah, and it's just a nice day, nothing can ruin this moment at all.

Just then everyone heard screaming and explosions as they saw people panicking and running.

Sam: You were saying?

Danie: *Puts her food away in her hair* *Sighs* Come on.

We see Danie, Star, and Danny in their hero alter egos along with Sam and Tucker arrive where they see a small figure run off into the alley.

Danie: Where did that thing go?

Sam: *Hears something coming from the alley* There! It went into that alleyway!

Danny: Whoever this ghost is, is so gonna pay.

We then see Danie and the trio arrive to where the creature ran to as they hid behind a wall seeing it was cornered.

Danny: *to the others* On three… one.

Sam: Two.

Danie, Star, and Tucker: Three!

Everyone all came out of hiding and aimed at the creature as it is revealed to be a red panda with an apple in its mouth.

???(Kiko): *Squeaks*

Tucker: Don't worry dude, this might be an easy win for you.

Danny: *Sarcastically* Very funny.

Star: Oh my goodness… it's so cute!

The red landa then stood up and raised it's hands and roared in cute manner as it walked to Danie.

Danie: Hey easy guy or gal. Wait squeak once if your guy, squeak twice for a girl.

The red panda sqeaked twice indicating it was a girl.

Danie: Alright girl it is, *gets to the red Panda's level* and it's okay we're not gonna hurt you, or more specifically Sam is gonna hurt you.

Sam: Hey!

The red panda yelped as she jumped onto Danie for comfort.

Danie: *Comforts the panda* Shh, shh easy gal it's okay.

Star: Sam come on, be nice.

Sam: Oh like I'm the bad guy here, we don't even know what a red panda is doing here.

Danie: Obviously is ran away from the zoo because it didn't like being in captivity and she was poached and taken away from her home.

Sam: Yeah right.

The red panda nodded in agreement with what Danie said.

Danny: Wait, did that actually happen?

The red panda nodded again sadly as Danie hugged her.

Danie: Hey it's okay, trust me we're not gonna take you to the zoo.

Star: Then where are we gonna take her? She can't stay at my place.

Danny: Or mine.

Tucker: Or mine.

Sam: Definitely not mine.

Danie: *Gets an idea* Ohh she can stay with me! I always wanted to have a red panda as a pet.

Sam: Are you nuts?! That thing is a wild animal.

Danie: *Nuzzles the red panda* Oh don't get your bat wings in a bundle. *To Kiko* Don't listen to mean old Sam, your cute in my eyes *nuzzles the red panda* Oh yes you are, yes you are~!

Sam: She could have rabies or something!

Danie: She doesn't have rabies.

The red panda then opened her mouth and shot fireballs out of its mouth as everyone got out of the way and they were shocked to see this happen.

Danny: She does however shoot fire.

Sam: Oh that's it, panda or not it's going down!

Before Sam could even blast Kiko, Danie grabs Sam's wrist blaster and crushes it in her hands and glares at her with fire in her eyes.

Danie: Don't even think about hurting this little cutie!!

Tucker: Okay I gotta admit, a fire breathing red panda is awesome.

Sam: It's not awesome! That thing is a fire hazard! What if it has rabies?!

Danie: *While holding Kiko* She doesn't have any rabies, I checked.

Sam: Danie put it down, that thing is a dangerous monster!

Danie: She's not monster, she's an adorable fire breathing red panda monster, *realizes* I said monster didn't I?

Tucker: Yep.

Danny: Sure did.

Danie: Well you know what I mean.

Tucker: I thought you meant monster.

Danie: Fine. If you guys, minus Star, think she's such a monster I'm bringing Kiko home with me.

Danny: Kiko?

Danie: Yep, Kiko.

Sam was about to protest until Danie beat her to it.

Danie: And before you say anything else, I'm super emotionally attached to her.

Tucker: Hm, good name.

Kiko: *Squeaks in agreement*

Danie: And Kiko likes it too.

Star: You can understand her?

Danie: Yep.

Sam: Okay what about your folks? What are they gonna say when you bring home a fire breathing red panda?

Danie: They know I'm half ghost, they won't freak out.

The others had some skeptical faces while Danie was hugging Kiko as Sam saw how Kiko didn't look all that bad.

Sam: Well…it is just a red panda. And she is kind of cute.

Sam reached out and went to pet Kiko only for the red panda to scratch Sam as she yelped in pain.

Sam: *Holds her hand* Ow! What was that for?!

Danie: Oh because Kiko doesn't like you, and she barely knows you. While Red pandas are cute they can be dangerous to people they don't know.

Sam: *Sarcastically* Good to know.

We later see Danie and Star arrive at the Benton residence where they went in with Kiko on Danie's head.

Danie: Moms I'm back with Star and we bought a new friend with us

Star: By we she means her.

Della: Oh that's wonderful swee- *sees Kiko* *Gasps in overjoy* ¡Ay, que lindo! (Oh, how cute!) *Hugs Kiko* Daniela, where did you find this cutie?!

Danie: We found her in an alley looking for food, and I decided to take her in, can I keep her mom? Please??

Sierra: A red panda?

Star: She also breathe fire.

Sierra: Okay a fire breathing red panda, I don't know Daniela, a pet is a big responsibility to care for, especially an exotic pet.

Della: Sierra please, it's a red panda, I've always wanted one as a child.

Danie: And so did I.

Sierra: Hmm… well okay if she makes you really happy then you can take care of her.

Danie: Yes! Thanks mama Sierra.

Sierra: Anytime Danie.

Star: Huh, did not see that coming.

The next day, we see Danie and the others are at school in the hallways as Sam sees Kiko is on Danie's head.

Sam: You brought her with you?

Danie: Yep, I wasn't just gonna leave her at home.

Sam: What if someone sees Kiko?

Danie: Oh please, who's gonna see Kiko?

As if on cue, Lancer walks by and sees Kiko on Danie’s head.

Lancer: Ms. Benton, is that a raccoon on your head?

Danie: Red panda bear.

Team Phantom then facepalms thinking this is gonna end badly for Danie.

Lancer: I see and you know the policy on pets right?

Danie: Yeah no cats or dogs but you didn't say anything about red pandas did you?

Lancer: Uh well uh I-

Danie: And remember, I can ruin you and the staff with how the staff of Casper High lets its students get exempt from bullying. Plus, I can sue you for all the times you let Dash get away with hurting Danny. You wouldn't want to go bankrupt, *with red eyes* Do you?

Kiko growls a bit at Lancer, making the fat teacher flinch.

Lancer: I-I see… I thought you might have forgotten about that… uh very well, your rac err uh red panda, is allowed on campus.

Danie: Thanks.

Sam: Did that just happen?

Tucker: It did, it definitely did.

Danie: You guys do remember that little chat I had with the principal right? I could have Casper High exposed about how the staff turns a blind eye to bullying.

Tucker: Oh yeah forgot about that.

Danie: Yep, which means that Kiko is allowed at school.

Star: Awesome!

Kiko: *Squeaks* *nuzzles Danie*

Danie: *Nuzzles* she said “Thank you Danie and Star.”

Sam: Of course she did.

We later see Danie and the trio at gym class where the cheer squad was waiting for Danie.

Girl 1: Ugh, where's Benton?

Star: Relax girls, and Paulina,  she's coming.

Paulina: It's been 15 minutes, let's just start without-

Danie: I'm here!

The girls then saw Danie in her uniform as they saw Kiko on Danie’s head as they were in awe of the red Panda's cuteness.

Girl 1: OM goodness! Is that a red panda!?

Girl 2: It looks so cute!

Kiko: *Waves her paw at the girls*

Kiko jumped off of Danie’s head and went around Paulina and rubbed against her leg making her giggle as she went down to Kiko’s level and petted her giving into her cuteness.

Paulina: Alright I guess you're pretty cute. Now enough fawning,  let's get to practice.

Danie: Right, oh wait, *to Kiko* Kiko listen to mama and go sit in the bleachers, and remember try not to attack anyone, *brief pause* Unless it's Dash or Colette then it's totally acceptable.

Kiko: *Squakes and salutes*

Kiko then ran to the stands as she sat down and waved her paw at Danie.

Danie: That's mama's little helper, alright let's go.

We later see Danie and the girls all in a pyramid doing a cheer.

Danie and the girls: *Chanting* Casper's cool and you're a dud! We will drag you through the mud! Casper's cool and you're a dud. We will drag you through the mud! Casper's cool and you're a dud. We will drag you through the mud!

Paulina looked up as she saw Danie wiped some sweat from her forehead as she was shining in the sunlight which made her look hot to her.

Paulina: *Blushing* Wow… she's so… hot…~

Star: Paulina? *Doesn't get a response* Paulina??! *Still doesn't get a response* Hey!!

Paulina snaps out of her daze as she stumbled and fell off and landed on the ground as Danie and the girls gasped in shock as Kiko ran to her side as she was seen groaning and trying to stand up.

Star: Paulina! You okay?! I'm so sorry!

Paulina: I'm okay *tries to stand up but winces and falls back* Ow, owie, okay I'm not okay. I think…I think I hurt my leg… and don't be, traitor, and I’ll be okay. *Stifles a wince*

Danie: Are you sure? I can help carry you if it really hurts.

Paulina instantly blushes at the thought of being carried like a princess by Danie of all people.

Paulina: *Blushing and chuckling nervously* I'm fine! Who's Paulina?

Danie: Aaaaand, scoop! *She picks Paulina up*

Paulina: *Chuckling nervously* Oh, wow. Sports.

Danie: Star, you tell Tetslaff Paulina hurt her leg, I'm taking her home.

Star: Right.

Paulina: Wait what?!

Danie: No need to thank me, it's what I do. Oh and Star, you're in charge while we're gone.

Star: Right.

Danie: Alright let's go.

Danie, Kiko and Paulina walk off with the shallow girl in Danie's arms as Danie stops and realizes something, she doesn't know where Paulina lives.

Danie: Where exactly is your house Paulie?

Paulina: Umm… I'll tell you on the way.

Danie: Okay thanks.

Danie, Kiko and Paulina resumed their walk as Star and the girls saw how red Paulina's face looked. She wasn't acting like the spoiled brat Star deals with, she was nervous.

Star: Does she…? Nah… *thinks for a moment* Maybe…

We later see Danie, Kiko and Paulina arrive at her home as Danie saw it was a large townhouse that took up the entire street. It had once been part of a terraced community but her father had bought up the whole block and transformed it into a sprawling warren of expensive furniture, antiques and children. The sounds of young boys screaming were coming from a room tucked somewhere in the belly of the mansion and an older, matronly voice scolded them.

Danie: *to Paulina* This is where you live?

Paulina: Yep, I know it's very large but you get used to it.

Danie: Good to know. *To Kiko* Kiko, can you please knock on the door, mama has her hands full.

Kiko: *Squeaks* *Salutes*

knocks on the door with her paw as the door opens to reveal a muscular man, this was Paulina's dad, Carlos Sanchez.

Carlos: What's going- *sees Paulina in Danie's arms and gasps in shock* Sweetie what happened?!

Paulina: I fell off the pyramid  and hurt my leg, and Danie carried me here. *In her head* Best walk ever!

Carlos: Come in, set her down the couch.

Danie: Yes sir.

We see Danie and Kiko come in as Danie sets Paulina on the couch as Carlos puts a pillow under Paulina's sprained leg.

Danie: *Looks around* Nice place you got here, great atmosphere.

Paulina: *Chuckles* Yeah. And Thanks Danie for carrying me all the way here.

Danie: Oh it was no problem at all.

Carlos: Well thanks for carrying my daughter all the way here. *Looks at Danie* Hey aren't you that Benton girl she keeps talking about?

Paulina gets embarrassed when she heard her dad blab about her secret which was not as embarrassing as Star telling everyone about her mole.

Paulina: *Blushes* Papa! Please!

Carlos: Oh right, sorry sweetie, I'll uh, get you some ice. *Runs off*

Danie: Soo, your dad's nice.

Paulina: Yeah, my Papa is nice but he is a bit protective of me… *Notices Danie and Kiko's unconvinced looks* Okay, very protective of me.

Danie: What's his job?

Paulina: He's a police officer.

Danie: Oh that explains his overprotective-ness.

Kiko: *Squeaks in agreement*

Danie: So uh, what was your dad talking about when he said you talked about me a lot?

Paulina: *Blushes and gets flustered* Oh uh, it's nothing, nothing at all!

Danie: Hm, alright. Are you sure you're gonna be okay?

Paulina: I'll be fine. And besides it's kind of my fault anyways and making you carry me all the way here to my home.

Danie: Hey it's no biggie, it's not your fault.

Paulina: But it is, if I didn't get distracted I wouldn't be here and you wouldn't have almost broken your back getting me here.

Danie: Don't worry you were super light. *Blushes* Uh I-I mean like I said it was nothing, and

I'm definitely not calling you fat, definitely not.

Paulina: *Chuckles* Thanks Danie.

Danie: Anytime, although you did pig on those cookies I bought earlier.

Paulina: *In a playful tone* Watch it

Danie: Kidding.

Paulina: It's cool.

Carlos: Ahem.

Danie: Oh uh, Mr. Sanchez what's up?

Carlos: Can I talk to you in the kitchen?

Danie: Um, sure, *to Kiko * Kiko, keep an eye on Paulina.

Kiko: *Squeaks yes*

We later see Danie and Carlos in the kitchen, a bit nervous about what Carlos waa gonna say to her.

Danie: Before you say anything, I was not the one responsible for spraining your daughter's leg, and I didn't try-

Carlos: It's okay I know, I trust you kid.

Danie: You do?

Carlos: Of course, you walked my daughter all the way here. Most people would have called a cab

but you, you walked here with my daughter in your arms.

Danie: Yeah, I did. So um you're not mad?

Carlos: Of course not, you got guts kid.

Danie: Thank you sir, I care about Paulina just as much as you do.

Carlos: I know, just treat her well alright? She's been getting into a lot of trouble lately and I don't want her to fall into the wrong crowd.

Danie: Gotcha, *In her head* Did he just give me the green light? Weird.

Paulina: So what did my papa say?

Danie: Oh uh, nothing much, how's your leg doing now?

Paulina: It'll get better, hopefully for the game.

Danie: Yeah, wouldn't be the same without you, *blushes* I-I mean since you're the squad leader and all.

Paulina: And it wouldn't be the same without you, *Blushes* I-I mean since you're new to the cheer squad.

The two blushed as Kiko  saw this and nudged Danie a bit until she broke the silence.

Danie: Paulina, I have to ask if you're a nice person why do you hang out with people like Dash, Colette and the other A listers?

Paulina: Well Colette isn't really a friend, and it's because we're popular and we… you know, tell people what to say and-and do and what to wear and, keep the geeks in line… and we.. keep the school together?

Danie: I mean I guess, but you know they're bullies right? And the teachers don't even care or hear what the other people have to say, I mean if you were stuck on an island like Star with someone you thought was a friend but wasn't, would you honestly say they would try and rescue you?

Paulina: Well uh, what about your friends?

Danie: What about them?

Paulina: Well you can't say that guy in the red hat is perfect or Sam.

Danie: Hm, well explain.

Paulina: Alright, that techno-geek is a total creep, the way he is always desperate when he is trying to pick on girls and he likes his tech waaay too much and Sam acts like she is a deep individual but in reality, she just hates anything that isn't as dark and spooky as she is. And Danny can be weird and now that traitor Star is hanging out with them… and dating Danny.

Danie was silent for a moment and Paulina smirked, as she thought she had got her. However, to Paulina's surprise, the blond alien in disguise now had an unreadable expression on her face. She is confused, wondering what's going on with her.

Danie: *Chuckles* Yeah, my friends aren't perfect, they make mistakes but you don't know them the way I do. I mean sure they have their flaws, and one of them is a stalker, but their good traits way more than make up for them. Tucker is a little too into technology and yeah, he thinks that he is a ladies man in the making...those are his worst flaws but that's just it... flaws... but there is way more to him than that...not that you would know… And Sam can sometimes get biased with her views and options but she is not the antisocial person you make her out to be...She's actually a very caring person who will stop at nothing to help and protect something she cares deeply about. Sure, maybe she can get carried away or her emotions can cloud her judgment but her heart is in the right place. But in the end, she's very smart, strong, brave and loyal.

Paulina was a bit surprised by this, no one ever talked to her like this before, or ever, especially Star or her old "friend" Valerie.

Danie: I am not going to lie and say that my friends are perfect, because they are not...no one is perfect. I'm not perfect but I can say this without a doubt that there are no friends more loyal, patient, caring and understanding than Tucker, Danny and Sam. They are good people and great friends and I know that I can trust them with my life.

Danie thought about it and sure Sam doesn't really like her now but it'll change soon.

Danie: Can you do that?

Paulina: W-what?

Danie: You claim your so-called friends have their reasons for the way that they act...can you honestly tell me that you can trust them with your own life?

Paulina was silent, she never really thought about it since well she was the queen of Casper High and everyone worshiped her like a goddess but she never thought her friends could have her back.

Paulina: I… I never thought about it like that… I always think I'm the queen of Casper High and I have to deal with… the king.

Danie: *A bit surprised* You hate Dash too?

Paulina: Yeah, he thinks he's all cool and the dominant king of Casper, but he's just an annoying guy, one that I dated.

Danie: *Winces* Oooh…

Paulina: Yeah, not exactly proud of that, which is I dumped him, he's super annoying.

Danie: Ain't that the truth. Also, did you know that Sam's great-granddad Izzy was an inventor. He invented that machine *Twirling her finger in the air* that twirls cellophane around deli toothpicks.

Paulina: Wait then that means…

Danie: She's rich.

Paulina: Wow, she could've flaunted that wealth and become more popular than the A-listers.

Danie: And yet she didn't. You know how she hates them right?

Paulina: Yeah I know. It's kind of tough being popular.

Danie: I could tell how much guys gawk at you.

Paulina: Yep, when it comes to being the most beautiful and popular, it comes at a price. I mean I'm not as hot as you but um, heh, I'm hot.

Danie: Heh, yeah you're beautiful *blushes* Uh generally speaking of course.

Paulina: *Blushes a bit* Uh, heh thanks, no one ever says that to me and actually means it.

Danie: Oh I get it, you're miserable on the inside. You keep up an appearance just to avoid people who think of you as a queen and you get insecure about how you look and what people think of you.

Paulina: Wow a little deep but yeah that's why I do that. You must think I'm a real jerk huh?

Danie: No way, well a little, but that's besides the point. You can always change who you want to be, you don't have to be this school stereotype people see you as, be who you want to be.

Paulina: Really?

Danie: Yeah, everyone has their flaws, but it's the flaws that make us different.

Kiko: *Squeaks in agreement*

Paulina: Huh, I never thought of that way, thanks Danie.

Danie: Anytime.

Paulina: But I can't say the same about Star, just because she probably has a better life now and… has a boyfriend and outed me for my mole, she's still the… same Star…

Danie: Is she though?

Paulina then thought back to the day Star stopped being friends with her.

Flashback (Takes place from Lost)

Star: Valerie has ALWAYS been my friend Paulina and as for Danny...he's a nice guy...and at least they were more worried about the fact that I had to spend all night stuck in this school while SOME PEOPLE here kept complaining how I didn't show up to a stupid party!

Paulina: S-Star…

Did she flat out admit to being friends with losers and spoke against Paulina?

Paulina didn't like this…

Paulina: Star, this weird attitude has gone on long enough..if you keep doing this..I will have no choice but to throw you out of the A-Listers…

Then something happened that shocked the entire school...Star marched up to Paulina, looked her in the eye and only said this…

Star: You know...had this been the last week, that might have worked on me...but...let's just say that lately, I have had some soul searching done and..to be honest...I would rather be like this than go back to being your little satellite..

Paulina: W-What did you just say?

Star: I am saying that you can't kick me out of the A-Listers..because I quit!

Paulina: What? Nobody quits the A-Listers!

Star then handed her A list items, even her fro yo card.

Star: Well, I just did.

A stunned Paulina stood there as Star walked back to the table where Valerie was at, ignoring the fact that everyone was looking at her in disbelief. Star didn't care because for the first time in a long time...Star felt something she never felt in her life as an A-lister. She felt free.

Flashback ends.

Paulina then realized that Star was a lot happier being unpopular than being popular, especially with Valerie and the others.

Danie: Something on your mind Paulie?

Paulina snaps out of her thoughts as she hears Danie.

Paulina: Uh, no, no I'm fine just… thinking about the only friend that left me…

Danie: You mean, “The traitor”?

Paulina: Her name is Star, and… yeah… ever since she left things haven't really been the same… and hanging out with Colette is just even worse because all she thinks about is getting back at Star and stealing Danny away from her, it got so bad that she followed them all the way to New York.

Danie: Yikes…

Paulina: I know right? *Sighs sadly* It's not that I… hate Star, I just… *sighs* I-I don't know… I'm just afraid about facing her everyday, and I just say all that mean stuff just to hide what I really wanna say to her.

Danie saw this as she then pulls out a paper fan, rolls it up and bonks Paulina on the head with it.

Paulina: Oww! Geez what was that for?

Danie: It doesn't matter, it's in the past.

Paulina: *Rubs the spot where she got hit* Yeah but it still hurts.

Danie: Oh yes the past can hurt, but the way I see it, you can either run from it, or you can learn from it.

Danie then attempts to wack Paulina again but the latina girl was quick as she ducked dodging the hit.

Danie: Ah, you see. So what are you gonna do?

Paulina: Own up to my mistakes and probably apologize to Star when I get the chance.

Danie: Atta girl. Me and Kiko gotta get going, hope you feel better.

Paulina: Thanks.

Danie Anytime. Come on Kiko let's go.

We then see Danie and Kiko walk off and leave, leaving Paulina to her thoughts.

Paulina: *In her head* Idiot! I was so close to telling her how I feel about Danie! *Groans*

Stupid! Why didn't you tell her?! *Sighs* There's always next time.

Back with Danie and Kiko, we see Danie thinking the same thing as Paulina was.

Danie: I was so close to telling her how I feel about Paulina! *Groans* Stupid! Why didn't you

tell her?! *Sighs* There's always next time.

Kiko: *Squeaks*

Danie: *Pets Kiko* Thanks Kiko.

Kiko: *Squeaks*

Danie: Yeah, I know there's always next time. At least nothing else can go wrong.

Danie then hears something as she and Kiko turns to see a missile coming her way as she and Kiko dodged it at the last second, letting it destroy a random car as Danie turned into her Anodite form.

Danie: Okay, who's the guy that almost shot me?! And Kiko?!

???(Skulker): That would be me, Star Child.

Danie and Kiko looked up to see it was Skulker as he trapped Danie and Kiko in a net and pulled them in.

Danie: Huh, Danny told me about you, you're the guy that wants to take his pelt or something. Shouldn't you be hunting him instead?

Skulker: True, but *Holds up his cage of ghosts* I am a collector of rare and unique things. And you, star child are that and more.

Danie: Well my teachers say I'm a saint so there's that.

Skulker: Pity, though. I'd hoped you would put up more of a fight.

Danie: Oh, don't worry. *Phases out of the net along with Kiko*. I will.

Danie and Kiko then charged at Skulker knocking him into Fenton works as all of them landed

in the lab as Skulker kicked the duo off of him and captured them again.

Danie What are you doing?

Skulker: Bringing you two back to my world, where I can put you both on display. *Holds up a cage of ghosts*

Danie: What?!

Kiko: *Squeaks?!*

The cage disappears and Skulker presses a button on his wrist that turns on the nearby Ghost Portal.

Skulker: Ha! At last. *Starts walking towards the portal* Time to put you both in your cage.

Just then Skulker is blasted back as Danie and Kiko look and see it was Danny, in his ghost form, as Danie and Kiko went to him.

Danie: Danny! Boy am I glad to see you.

Danny: You too.

Danie then took this opportunity to charges at Skulker and punches him back into the portal.

Danie: And don't let the portal hit you on the way out!

Danie and Danny both turn back to their human forms.

Danny: So that happened.

Danie: Yeah, it did.

Danny: I heard what happened at cheer practice, is Paulina gonna be okay?

Danie: She only sprained her leg but she'll be fine.

Danny: That's a relief, I still can't believe you walked Paulina in your arms all from school to her house.

Danie: Yeah, that's how committed I am. Now I just hope that hunter guy got the message.

The next day we see Danie, Kiko and the others leaving Mr. Lancer's classroom. As students

leave the hallway, Danie opens her locker. A series of glowing chains jump out of it and wrap around Danie and Kiko's torso and arms.

Danny, Star Sam and Tucker: Danie!

Skulker materializes out of a blue mist in front of Danie.

Skulker: I have you now, ghost child.

Skulker aims a wrist ecto-blaster at the duo as Kiko hocks a fireball at Skulker knocking him into the lockers as Danie makes a portal back to the Ghost Zone and kicks him in and closes the portal as the chains on both of them disappear.

Danie: And stay out!

Tucker: Dang not bad you two.

Sam: When did you teach Kiko to attack like that?

Danie: I didn't, I guess it's just natural instincts.

But this is the second time that Skulker guy attacked me.

Tucker: Well on the plus side he's not after Danny. *Gets jabbed by Sam* Ow!

Danie: Thank you.

Sam: You're welcome. Ugb, and I can't believe I'm saying this but… how's Paulina doing?

Danie: She only sprained her leg when she fell but other than that she'll be fine.

Star: I still can't believe you walked her all the way to her home.

Danie: Well someone had to. And besides, she's not that bad.

Sam: Uh have you met Paulina, she's a shallow puddle.

Star: Yeah and take it from someone who used to hang it with her, it's not worth it and it took some self searching to realize she's a mean crude shallow girl.

Danie: She isn't like that. Unlike you, I actually took the time in getting to know her, the real her.

Tucker: Wait, you went to her house?

Danie: Well yeah, me and her hung out and we talked.

Sam: *Not believing it* Yeah, right.

Danny: It's true, Danie told me.

Sam and Star: Seriously?

Danie: Yeah, face it you two, not everyone is the stereotype you think they are. Like Star.

Sam Yeah right, Paulina always is and will be a shallow rotten witch and always will be.

Danie and Kiko both look at Sam with Danie's eyes glowing red as she and Kiko growl at her both of them baring their sharp teeth which made the trio flinch in shock.

Danny: Uh… Sam you better take that back…

Tucker: Before Danie and Kiko go ham on you.

Sam: Oh please like they're gonna- *sees a flaming hairball coming at her* Woah! *Dodges them* *Sees the two glaring at her* *Gets scared* Okay, okay, okay! I take it back!

Danie: *In a demonic voice* DO IT PROPERLY! TAKE YOUR WORDS BACK!

Sam: Eb lliw syawla dna hctiw nettor wollahs a eb lliw dna si syawla aniluaP ,thgir haeY (Yeah right, Paulina always is and will be a shallow rotten witch and always will be.)

Danie: *Normal voice* Thank you.

We then see Danie and Kiko leave for class leaving Sam, Star and the boys in shock.

Danny: Remind me to never make Danie or Kiko mad.

Tucker: Yeah, they may be sweet as peaches but they can get angry when they want to.

Sam: No kidding.

The next night, we see Danie, Kiko and the girls along with Paulina who is now fully healed up,

as we see them cheering on the team.

Danie and The girls: Casper is *posses* H-O-T! Casper is hot! Go, Ravens! *Danie posing as the

exclamation point*

We then see Kiko fly in as she shoots some fireworks adding some flare to the routine making everyone cheer and clap for the show.

Paulina: Woo-hoo! Go Ravens!

Star: Well… can't say it's nice to see you healed up Paulina.

Paulina: Thanks tr… Star.

Danie: You sure your okay?

Paulina: 100 percent.

Danie: That's a relief.

Kiko: *Squeaks*

Meanwhile in the stands.

Sam: Remind me again why we had to come here?

Danny: Because it's Danie's first night as an official cheerleader for the team.

Tucker: Yeah, plus she is making that uniform work.

Sam: *Sees Danie being nice to Paulina* Ughh, I don't know what she sees in that shallow puddle.

Danny: Sam relax if Danie is cool with Paulina then it's fine.

Sam: Danie is cool with anyone, apart from Dash.

Tucker: Yeah, the girl gets along with anyone. Especially Paulina. Hm what I don't get is why she always goes for Paulina.

Danny: Me neither, but if she's happy then I'm happy. And nothing can spoil this moment.

Just then Danny's ghost sense went off as did Danie's as we then see Skulker show up along giant scorpion ghosts.

Skulker: Now for the alien child!

Everyone freaked out and ran away, especially the cheerleaders.

Danie: *to Paulina* Paulina, you and the girls get out of here quick!

Star: You don't need to tell us twice!

We then see Paulina and the girls get to safety as Danny and Danie turned into their ghost form as duo along with Kiko who blasted the ghost scorpions away.

Danie: *To Skulker* Didn't take you for a arachnid lover, but then again you are trying to mount my head on your wall. But I gotta say, if you really are the greatest hunter in the Ghost Zone why haven't I heard about you?

Danny: Oho! Burn!

Skulker: Grrr! Just as annoying the boy, I'll have both of you in cages! And your cat too!

Danny then blasts Skulker back as the two begin to fight as Skulker kicks Danny back but Danie manages to get him.

Danny: Thanks.

Danie: No prob.

The Phantom duo and Kiko fight off Skulker but the Scorpions manage to knock back the trio.

Danie: Ughh, I don't get it, how does this guy keep finding us? *Hears beeping* Huh?

Danie looked at Kiko as she then noticed the tag on her collar was beeping.

Danie: The tag.

Danny: Danie now is not the time for-

Danie: No look.

Danie took the tag off as she revealed it to be a tracking device.

Danny: Tracking device.

Danie: That explains how Skulker kept finding me. Now to pay him back.

We then see Danie charge at Skulker as she blasted a ghost ray at him knocking him back.

Danie: Using my new pet as bait?!

Danny: *While following Danie's lead* That's low even for you!

Danie and Danny both go to hit Skulker again but are blasted back into the stands.

Skulker: I planned on simply capturing you and letting you live the rest of your life in a cage.

But now, I'll capture you both and rest your pelts at the foot of my bed.

Star: Ewww…

Sam: Okay, that's just gross.

Skulker: Well, alien child, any last words?

Danie: Just two; Kiko sic'em!

We then see Kiko, now in her ghost form, suddenly fly in and she crashes into Skulker.

Tucker: You taught her how to beat up ghosts too?

Danie: Yep. *To Sam* Told you Kiko was a good red panda.

Sam: You never told me she was a ghost!

Kiko then charges and hits Skulker and rips his armor apart, as Danie, Danny, Star, Sam, and Tucker both cheer him on and wince at the hits. Kiko then throws Skulker, whose arm has been ripped off, down on the ground.

Kiko continues to rip Skulker's armor apart and throws pieces of it over everyone's heads from off-screen. Skulker's head armor is thrown and Danny catches it. Two small green legs are kicking out from inside the head.

Skulker: *In a squeaky voice* Let me go! I am the Skulker! The Skulker! Do you hear me? Fear me!

Danny pulls on the legs to reveal Skulker's true form: a tiny green blob with a face and limbs which shocks them all.

Danie: Pfft hahaha hahaha oh man this is too good!

Skulker: I am the greatest hunter in all of the ghost world. You will all fear me.

Danie: *Sarcastically* Oh we fear you alright, *to Tucker* Thermos please.

Tucker holds the thermos out and activates it. Danny drops Skulker into its beam.

Skulker: *As he is sucked in* You haven't seen the last of me! I shall capture you all. You shall all be mine. Mine, do you hear?!

Tucker caps off the thermos. Danny lands on the ground in his human form as Danie does the same and Kiko turns back to normal.

Opposing team: *Gets scared* Those Raven chicks are nuts!

Opposing team member 1: Let's get out of here!

We then see the opposing team run away as the football team and Cheerleaders come out.

Star: Hey those guys just forfeited, that means we win!

The crowd stands up from cowering and cheers. The Ravens pick up Danie, Danny, Sam, Kiko, and Tucker.

Danie: Woo-hoo! Huh... Why do I have this weird feeling I'm forgetting something?

Just then a giant ghost bird swoops down and snatches Tucker who was screaming.

Danie: That was it.

Later on,  we see the girls change back to their regular clothes as we see Paulina now in her regular clothes as she sees Star walking off and remembers what she was gonna do.

Paulina: *To herself* It's now or never. *Outloud* Star, wait up.

Star flinched and groaned knowing she was gonna get an earful from her “Best friend”.

Star: What is it Paulina? Was my cheering “not good enough” or was I lacking pep, or-

Paulina: Stop. There's something I… have to tell you.

Star sighed in annoyance assuming it was something about her cheering or being a loser or a traitor.

Star: What is it?

Paulina: I'm… sorry.

Star was a bit taken back by this, did Paulina, the shallow girl she finally sees her as, apologized?

Star: W-what…?

Paulina: I'm sorry, okay? I'm sorry for calling you a traitor, I'm sorry for dissing your cheer moves, and saying you sounded like a nastily dressed stewardess giving rules on a plane, and I'm sorry for calling you a loser, and I'm sorry for trying to break you and Fen… I mean you and Danny up last Valentine's Day.

Star was surprised by this, she was hearing her ex friend spilling apology after apology for everything she did to her. Paulina noticed Star’s silence and looked down a bit.

Paulina: And you don't have to forgive me, I mean, I'd probably hate me too if I was a jerk to myself.

Star: Um… wow… I… Paulina… that was… actually kind of… nice of you…

Paulina: Thanks… trait- I mean Star.

Star: Anytime… uh… I should probably get going… with Danny.

Paulina: Uh yeah, and I should get home too. See ya.

Paulina then walks off as Star stood there, still a bit stunned that Paulina, the shallow girl and A-Lister, actually apologized to her.

Star: *In her head* Did Danie actually have an influence on Paulina?

We later see Star join up with others as they saw the stunned expression on Star’s face.

Danny: Hey Starlight you okay? You look like you saw a ghost. Pun unintended.

Star: You're not gonna believe what Paulina did.

Sam: Pfft, what? She made of your cheering, called you a loser, or-

Star: She apologized.

Danny, Sam and Tucker were surprised and baffled to hear this as they all started laughing thinking it was a joke but when they all saw Star wasn't laughing they realized she wasn't making this up.

Sam: Wait, are you serious?

Star: As a heart attack, she went to me and-and spilled her guts to me, she wasn't being shallow she was being…Nice to me. And not fake-nice, like for real nice.

Tucker: Are you sure? This is Paulina were talking about.

Star: Yes I'm sure.

Danny: It's gotta be some A-Lister prank or something right? Right?

Star: She said she'd hate herself too if she was a jerk to herself.

Tucker: Woah… that is some hard dedication.

Danny: Yeah, if she's really that sorry…

Star: I didn't forgive right away, she said I probably won't forgive her…

Sam: Good, you shouldn't. I mean this is Paulina we're talking about.

Star: Hang on Sam, I don't… we don't know for sure. It sounded like a genuine apology for how much bad stuff she did, and I should know.

Sam: Yeah well I still say it's a prank or something knowing Paulina.

Star: Well like I said we don't know that for sure.

Danny: Are you really gonna forgive her Star?

Star: I don't really know Danny-boo, after everything she did… I'll think about it.

Tucker: Well she wasn't really acting like a jerk today more so than usual, ever since she started hanging out with Danie.

Star: Hey yeah, ever she and Danie talked Paulina's been acting… nicer.

Danny: You think she's being a good influence on her?

Star: Probably.

Sam: Well we don't know for sure, yet.

Star: Either way, let's just see how this goes and we'll see if Paulina was being nice or… faking it.

Next: Chapter 9: Protecting The Panda.
