A/N Okay I know I have two stories going on (Well one and one planned) but I got a request to do this and my mind has been on this and I can't think of anything for The Phantom Holder. So, I'll do my best to do both of these stories and start the Field Trip Sequel soon. I don't own Danny Phantom or American Dragon: Jake Long.

Jake's Point of View

"Jake!" I heard Grandpa yell.

I sighed, "Yeah Grandpa!" I called.

I finally decided to call my Grandpa, well, Grandpa after what happened in Hong Kong. I'm now 16 years old and currently in my Grandpa's shop with Trixie, Spud, and my girlfriend and former Hunts Clan member, Rose. Grandpa entered through the certain, "A ghost has been detected in New York," Grandpa said.

"Ghosts?" Trixie said, "Cool!"

"Not cool," Rose said, "While a few ghosts are friendly and helpful most are dangerous."

"I'm on it," I said and stood up, "Why don't you guys take a break from math for a minute."

I then turned into my dragon form and flew out of the shop. I looked around and quickly saw a metal ghost with green flaming hair, a Mohawk really, "Ah!" the ghost yelled, "There you are Whelp!"

I was confused then he suddenly flew down to a boy, a human boy, "No!" I yelled and stopped the ghost with my tail.

The ghost cried out and I vanished from sight before the boy could turn around. The ghost rubbed his head, "Who are you!" the ghost yelled, "I almost had his pelt for my wall!"

"Um, ew…" I said with a disgusted look, "And the name's Jake Long, and you're in my territory. No magic creature gets out without my consent."

"Oh…you're that American Dragon we used to fear before the Whelp came along," the ghost said.

"Used to?" I asked.

The ghost looked around, "Gah! I lost him!" he yelled.

"Who are you?" I asked him; from what Rose and Grandpa told me ghosts love to say their name and their obsession.

"I am Skulker; Ghost Zone's Greatest Hunter!" the ghost, Skulker, yelled.

"Yeah, like I haven't heard that a hundred times," a voice said.

"Whelp!" Skulker yelled.

I turned and saw a ghost with white hair that covered his glowing green eyes slightly. He looked about 16 years old and wore a black and white jumpsuit with a weird black symbol that looked like D and P intertwined together, "I will have your pelt Whelp!" Skulker said.

The new ghost sighed and pulled out a thermos, "I'm not in the mood right now Skulker," he said, "Now, you can either go with this nice…dragon?...or you can be stuck in the thermos for the rest of eternity, because there's no Ghost Zone here and I'm not flying back and forth just to empty it."

Skulker went wide eyed, "You don't have the guts Whelp," Skulker said.

The new ghost growled, "Don't I?" he said glaring.

Skulker gulped and turned to me, "Uh, what exactly were you going to do with me?" he asked me.

"Uh, that's for my Grandpa to decide," I said crossing my arms.

Suddenly, a blue light incased Skulker and I turned to the source and…it was the thermos! The ghost put the cap on it and tossed it to me, "Travel sized," he said in monotone.

"Who are you?" I asked.

"…that's none of your business," he said, "But I won't cause any trouble to this city."

With that he disappeared from sight. I looked at the thermos confused, "Well, Grandpa should love this story," I said and flew back to the shop.

American Phantom

"Whoa…" Rose said and held the thermos after I explained everything, "So the ghosts are more scared of him than you?"

"That's what I got out of it," I said.

"This makes no sense," Grandpa said, "Why would a ghost act so cold, but not harm anyone?"

I shrugged and stood up, "I've got to get home," I said, "We have a cousin of my dad's coming to live with us because his family and friends died in an explosion."

"Oh, I heard about that," Rose said standing up, "Mind if I go with you Jake?"

I nodded, "Sure," I said and we left after saying good bye to Grandpa and Fu.

We arrived at my house not ten minutes later. I opened the door and went slightly wide eyed. My cousin was the human boy Skulker almost killed, "Jake, Rose," mom said snapping me out of my trance, "This is Danny. Danny, this is your cousin Jake and his girlfriend Rose."

Danny turned to us. He had dark black hair that covered his ice blue eyes slightly. He looked about my age and wore a long sleeve black shirt with dark blue jeans and black boots. He also had light purple and blue backpacks, "Um, hi," I said.

Danny just ignored me and turned away. Okay…this seems vaguely familiar, "Um, Jake why don't you show Danny his room; Rose you can help me and Hailey finish cooking dinner and you're welcome to stay of course."

Rose and I nodded and only then did Danny get up off the couch. I walked upstairs with Danny behind me. I opened the door to Danny's room and we both entered. Danny sat on the bed and started unpacking his backpacks. He pulled out a picture then glared at me, "Do you have to watch me do everything?" he asked annoyed.

I sighed, "Danny, listen," I said, "I know you miss them, but closing anyone who wants to help you off won't make them come back."

"I know," Danny snapped at me, "That's not why…"

I was confused, "Then what?"

Danny looked away, "I, I couldn't protect them okay!" he yelled.

Now I was really confused, "Danny, how could you protect them? That restaurant was ready to explode. If you tried to protect them you would've died with them."

"Fine with me…" he said then muttered something that I barely caught, "Then I won't be able to turn into him."

I blinked slightly, "Well, dinner will be done in a little bit," I said, "Dad will be home in a little bit. Maybe he can understand more than me. After all your mom was his sister."

Danny huffed and I heard him mutter, "No one can understand because they don't know what I do and what I sacrifice."

I was confused but left anyway. Just as I got downstairs dad walked in the house, "Is Daniel here yet?" he asked.

"Danny is in his room," mom said emphasizing Danny's name.

"I'll go talk to him," dad said and went upstairs.

I went into the kitchen, "Danny's closed himself off," I stated.

"Well, he just lost his family and best friends Jake," mom said as she cut potatoes.

"I know, but…he says it's because he couldn't protect them," I said.

Rose, Hailey, and mom stopped what they were doing and looked at me confused, "I also heard him mutter things like turning into someone and something about no one being able to understand what he's going through because they don't know what he does or his sacrifices."

Mom blinked, "If he wasn't on your dad's side I would think he was a dragon," she said.

I nodded in agreement, "A ghost also tried and attack him this afternoon," I said.

"What?" mom said shocked.

I shrugged, "I don't get it either," I said, "But didn't you say his parents were ghost hunters?"

"Yes, but they were nowhere near close to what ghosts were really like," Susan said, "Well, maybe a little…"

"So Danny may know about the magical world, or at least the Ghost Zone," Rose said.

I nodded, "This…could be a problem with the Dragon Council," I said, "I mean it was hard enough getting them to trust Rose after everything she did to help us."

"Good point Jake," mom said, "Will talk to your father when he's done talking to Danny."

I nodded, "I better call my parents and let them know that they just have to fix for themselves and Iris," Rose said and pulled out her cell phone.

After Rose called her parents and sister they continued cooking. Dad came back down after a few minutes, "He doesn't hate us," dad said, "He just misses his family and his friend Sam."

"Jonathon," mom said, "You need to know something."

"What? More secrets?" dad asked.

"No, no," mom said, "Earlier this afternoon Jake said a ghost tried to attack Danny. We think that because your sister and brother-in-law were ghost hunters…"

"He'll be a target for attacks," dad finished, "I get it, but what can we do. That council didn't exactly like me and Rose knowing about you guys and the magical world."

"We'll just have to protect him without telling him," I said, "Rose and I can do that."

Dad and mom nodded and mom went back to cooking. Suddenly, Danny came downstairs, "Oh, Danny," mom said, "You'll be going to school tomorrow with Jake, Rose, and their friends Trixie and Spud."

"Great," Danny said sarcastically and then sat on the couch and turned on the TV.

I looked at Rose who nodded slightly which meant that tomorrow at school we'd be watching over Danny like a hawk…or as much as we could.

A/N This is the first chapter now I need to update the Phantom Holder. And I will try and update these two and start the Field Trip sequel as soon as I can. Please R&R.
