Alright, hello! And welcome to the first chapter of I Wanna Be A Rockstar. I had this idea in my head for a while and finally decided to write it. Anyways there's the usual I don't own Danny Phantom or any of the songs used in this story, they all belong to their respective owners.

Without further adieu, let's get to the story!

Danny currently laid in his unkempt bed, his sheets hanging off the edge and mostly on the floor along with one of his legs. The only source of illumination in his otherwise dark bedroom was his alarm clock which currently read 3:52AM.

Sighing, he pulled out one of his earbuds and sat up, looking around his messy room.

'Another sleepless night…' Spoke Danny as he stood and walked out of his room, nonchalantly avoiding the many hazards on his floor and down the hall to the bathroom.

Once inside, he closed the door and turned on the light. Immediately, he squinted until his eyes could adjust the sudden brightness. Once he could open his eyes, he stared into the mirror at the empty shell of himself that stood there looking back at him.

His eyes were bloodshot and dark circles rested under them. They were still puffy from the tears he had shed at the beginning of the night when he got home from school. His break up with Sam, even though had happened 2 weeks ago was still fresh in his mind.

Every time he closed his eyes, she was the only thing he could see and all it did was bring him pain. His chest tightened and a lump formed in his throat as hot tears streamed down his cheeks. It also didn't help much that Let It Die by Three Days Grace began playing in his iPod.

You blame me, but

It's not fair when you say that I didn't try

I just don't want to hear it anymore

I swear I never meant to let it die

I just don't care about you anymore

It's not fair when you say that I didn't try

I just don't care about you anymore

Leaning on the sink, Danny continued to cry, his tears falling onto the porcelain countertop.

"God dammit..." He whispered almost inaudibly. It was true that he didn't understand why Sam had left him so suddenly even with her explanation that turned into the both yelling at each other before Danny transformed and flew off, tears streaming down his face.

Sniffling and wiping the tears away, he looked up to the mirror and glared at the reflection. His expression softened before he sighed and shut the light off before heading back to his room.

Sam and he began dating right after the disasteroid incident and everything seemed to be going well until Sam began to yell at Danny about them being followed everywhere by the press and all the fan girls that were after his heart.

He couldn't understand why she was directing it all at him when he had no control over the fact that his secret was out and that the whole world knew about his ghost powers. As soon as he had gone back to school, everyone swarmed him, all the guys wanting to hang out with him, and all the girls wanting to be with him.

This went on for about two months before Sam had told him that she had had enough of it all and for them to just break it off.

One could imagine what it would be like for Danny to have to deal with the heartbreak while the news spread like wildfire that the world's most eligible bachelor was back on the market a mere two months after dating Sam.

Gossip channels and magazines were all on the topic of who would get to steal him away next. Danny just wanted it all to end. He felt as if his whole life was spiraling out of control. A massive wave of depression.

Every single day after school, he would get home and collapse into his bed where he would remain until the next day, sleeping or not, he blasted music during the day and plugged in his earbuds at night.

His parents were concerned for him at first but soon got preoccupied by their new work of studying ghosts instead of hunting them. Jazz while busy with her university applications still worried about her little brother and what he might be going through internally.

This pattern went on for a while before Danny decided to get rid of anything that reminded him of Sam. Digging through his closet, he tossed pictures and other papers into a pile that he was planning on burning. This went on until he accidently crashed his hand into something hard.

"Ow, fuck!" He exclaimed as he retracted his hand, holding it for a moment before reaching back in a little more cautiously. Grabbing a metal handle, pulled. It was heavy which made him raise a brow.

"What the hell…?"

Attached to the handle was a long black rectangular case with latches keeping it closed. Setting the dust covered case on his lap and unclasping the latches, he opened it up to something that made his eyes widen. In the case was his old guitar. A 64 Fender Stratocaster in classic white that Danny had unoriginally named Excalibur.

"Woah… Where have you been…" Danny whispered as he picked up the guitar, running a hand up the neck. Strumming out a few notes, he reached up to tune it just a bit before string again until he could start playing just a bit.

Jazz happened to be walking by when he could hear guitar playing coming from her brother's room. She stopped and slowly peaked in to see Danny sitting on the floor playing his guitar with his eyes closed. Smiling, she silently closed the door and went on about her usual business.

Opening his eyes, Danny looked down at his guitar. Thinking silently for a moment, he looked up and around.

"This could be just what I need right now… Thanks old friend."

Meanwhile in Clockwork's realm, the Master of Time himself smiled warmly as he watched his young apprentice through one of the many screen floating before him.

"Oh, Daniel… You have no idea." Turning into his old man form, he floated off to meet with the observants

Back with Danny, he was finishing up tossing the rest of the mess in his room away and making his bed until his phone buzzed in his pocket. His heart dropped as he slowly pulled it out to see that it was only a text message from his best friend and the current mayor of Amity Park, Tucker Foley.

'Hey'

'What's up, Tuck?'

'Just got done with a mountain of paperwork lol'

'Bummer'

'Nasty Burger?'

'You know it'

Pocketing his phone and smiling, he walked over to the case that lay open with his strat inside, he closed it and clicked the latches shut. Grabbing his keys and wallet, Danny was downstairs and out the door in no time at all, on his way to meet his best friend for some good food.

He had of course transformed and flown out the front door intangible before remaining invisible flying over the massive crowd of crazed fans gathered all around Fenton Works every single day. If it hadn't been for Tucker's new law that uninvited guests were to remain 10 feet away from the property at all times, Danny would never be able to sleep.

Arriving outside of the Nasty Burger, Danny transformed back into his human form before entering the establishment. Looking around, he spotted Tucker. Unfortunately for him, the entire restaurant had also spotted Danny. Rushing up to him and begging for either an autograph or a date, Danny sighed. Signing as many things as he could, he rejected every single girl offering themselves to him before making his way over to his best friend.

"Hey, Tuck…" Danny greeted tiredly.

Giving a soft chuckle, his best friend replied, "What's up, Danny. Sorry about not thinking of the whole in public thing."

"Eh, don't worry about it, it's not your fault." Smiling and taking a seat, a waitress brought them their foot before gushing over Danny and walking away, swaying her hips provocatively. Danny only shook his head, laughing quietly before returning his attention to Tucker who happened to be doing the same thing. Both of them laughed and began eating.

"It's good to see you laughing and smiling again, dude. Haven't seen you doing that since…" Tucker trailed off and Danny tensed up slightly before sighing and staring at his fries.

"Sorry…" Said Tucker as he realized that he had brought up Sam in front of Danny. Even though it had been a month, Danny would still feel the ache in his chest whenever he thought of her. But at least the tears had finally stopped.

"Like I said, Tuck. Don't worry about it. Can't keep wallowing over the past." Smiling softly, the raven-haired boy looked up to his red beret wearing friend before they both continued eating and talking. Towards the end of their meal Danny looked out the window and spotted a music shop across the street.

Tucker happened to notice this and followed his gaze before looking back to Danny.

"Eddy's Music Store? I didn't think you were still into that stuff." Tucker said as he finished off his fries, drowning down the salty mush with ice cold cola.

"Huh? Oh uh, yeah… You could say that I've recently gotten back into it." Replied Danny looking a bit sheepish as he stood to toss away his trash, Tucker following behind and doing the same.

As they both fist bumped and parted ways outside of the Nasty Burger, Danny watched Tucker walk off down the street, to City Hall most likely. Danny looked across the street again to the music shop he was eyeing earlier.

A large sign hung above the shop that read, EDDY'S MUSIC STORE. Guitars and even a drum set could be seen in the large window by the door.

'My strat could use new strings." Thought Danny before he crossed the street and entering the music store and looking around. Different guitars hung on the walls both acoustic and electric. As well as shelves filled with CD's, and even vinyl's.

"Nice.." Danny smiled as he made his way over to the guitar strings. Examining each package hanging on the wall, he spotted exactly what he needed. Grabbing the pack, he turned to go pay and just as he did, he ran into someone.

Both Danny and whoever he walked into fell back onto the floor.

"Oh crap, I'm so sorry! Are you okay?" Asked Danny as he looked up to a feminine pair of legs in black leather pants. Following up, he was met with a pair of toxic green eyes and robin egg blue hair covered in a grey hoodie.

"Watch where you're go_..." She spoke as she laid eyes on a pair of baby blue ones. Both their eyes widened.

"EMBER!?"

"DIPSTICK!?"

Holy crap... So what did you guys think of the first chapter of my first attempt at a Danny Phantom fanfic? Should I continue or not? Review and I might be seeing you in the next one!

Stay classy!
