Danny Fenton had to wonder: What could possibly be the worst . . . no, the most ridiculous thing that's happened to him in the past week.

Sleeping in & waking up two periods late for school? Nah. That's almost everyday. How about . . . a teacher dropping the "you're failing my class" bomb? Nope. Not really. Danny always hated language arts. Maybe having practically the whole student body laugh at you wherever you went on an early Tuesday morning. Just because Danny had overly embarassing, eccentric, parents who study, breathe, & literally live off of paranormal sciences & ghost detection inventions, doesn't entirely make them complete Froot-Loops. Right? Okay. Maybe a little. That very same morning, his grizzly man of a father & petite woman of a mother were testing out their latest invention, by tackling a poor defenseless girl to the ground. The very same girl Danny use have a crush on. Paulina. Yeah. No comment on how bad that was. But even then it wasn't the most ridiculous thing that's happened to Danny.

It was actually getting stuffed in the back of a snazzy Chevy Impala '67.

Now most people get to thinking: How in the heck does a teenage 15 year old boy get stuffed in the trunk of a vintage car? Seriously! The kid must be in deep with some bad people. Right?

Wrong.

Believe it or not, Danny has been in a lot more similar situations before. Probably a lot more serious, a lot more dangerous, a lot more difficult to get out of, deadly & above all WEIRD situations. They could've all been avoided too. If only Danny knew how to control his freakish awful ability. The ability to turn himself into a ghost.

Well. Half ghost anyway.

How it happened was a long story. The short version: Danny had a freak accident in his parents' lab. They had invented their biggest ghost detection conraption yet, & it was deemed useless for a long time. They gave up trying to fix it. Then. Curiousity got the better of Danny. Alone with his two best friends, they investigated the thing. Danny carelessly touched something he shouldn't have, & then BAM! Ghost powers.

You'd think that talking to dead people, going through walls, flying & turning invisble would be totally cool. But all that gave Danny in return was a crap load trouble. That & a seriously ghastly pale appearence. When two horizontal spectral rings manifest at his waist, one goes up, the other goes down, & they transform Danny. Giving him pure white hair. Unnatural bright, glowing, green eyes. A black hazmat suit, a white waistband, white gloves, & white boots. Titling himself Phantom. Danny Phantom.

Frankly he didn't understand most of his powers. Otherwise Danny wouldn't have been so completely oblivious about transforming wide in the open. It's not like he did it on purpose though. It just happens on instinct. For example, Danny could get seriously startled & he'd turn intangible. He could get really angry & his eyes would glow green. So on & so forth. Everything he does is based on raw emotion. Then there were the involuntary senses. Sort of like Spider-Man's "tingling sensation" thing to avoid danger, with Danny, though, it was more like little thin streaks of vapor coming out of his mouth. Danny couldn't ignore it. Well. He could, but unless he wanted dead people haunting & destroying places on his mind what sort of person would that make him?

Life is seriously complicated enough for a regular teenager. But add a little freaky & weird into your life, next thing you know it's full blown.

So. Danny was heading home.

After a whole evening's worth of watching cheesy horror flicks with his two best friends, Sam & Tucker, Danny got to thinking he should probably spend the other half of the night trying to make up his failed assignments in his language arts class. Walking through Amity Park, which was nothing much, but a bunch of dead end streets filled with town houses & flats, he was three blocks away from his home. The home, notably known for the glowing "Fenton Works" neon signs, & the giant Ops Center on the roof, looking like a clunky space ship, with satellites & antennas sticking out. Danny's ghost sense goes off, as his mouth went agape, & a long streak of vapor comes out. He hears ragged breathing.

Instinctly Danny whips his head over his shoulder . . . . .

NOTE: Just a mish-mosh thing of a story.
