I do not own Danny Phantom or characters relating to show.

first Fan-Fic, review if you want, let me know what i did wrong.

~ What would happen if it took Danny longer to wake up after the accident? How will his friends and family react when they find him lying on the floor with white hair and no heartbeat? ~

"Just take a quick look inside Danny" He heard one of his best friends, Sam, say behind him. "Yea, what could it hurt?" Asked Tucker, his second best friend, standing to his left, Alright fine, he answered as he made his way to the back of the room, grabbing one of his parent's spare jumpsuits from a peg on the wall and slipping into it. Argh, why does my dad feel the need to put either his name or face on everything? He asked himself as he pulled off a large sticker of his father's face and walked towards the ghost portal his parents had tried, and failed, to turn on earlier that day. As Danny stepped inside the currently inoperable portal he still wasn't so sure about this idea, yet at the same time hoping he could find something his parents had missed, they had seemed especially down after this latest invention hadn't powered up as it was supposed to. After his first step into the machine all he could see was the metal making up the interior he took a couple more hesitant steps before his friends called out to him to come back out, agreeing with them in his mind he quickly turned around, stumbling as he did so and placing his hand against the inside of the machine for balance. As he touched the wall he felt it give a small fraction as he heard a click and his eye's grew wide as he looked at the wall, Oh no, don't tell me dad put the button on the ins….

Sam and Tucker had called for their friend to come back out as they began to have second thoughts, only to see him turn quickly and lose his balance, when he put his hand against the machine to keep from falling they saw his eyes go wide just before everything went wrong. The portal jumped to life with a bright flash of light with Danny right in the middle of it, Sam screamed as Tucker ran forward trying to think of something he could do, Sam following behind him. As they reached the portal, now a swirling mass of glowing green they noticed a head of white hair followed by a body in a black jumpsuit falling out of the green light, landing on his face with no reaction. Rushing to the body hoping it was Danny and not something else they promptly rolled him onto his back, letting out a sigh as they recognized his face.

Danny, wake up! Wake up, man! No, Danny you can't do this to us, WAKE UP! Hearing the shouts of Sam and Tucker, Danny's Mom, Maddie rushed downstairs to the lab worrying over her son as his friends continued to shout out his name. She almost stopped breathing as she reached the bottom of the stairs, looking across the basement lab she could see Sam and Tucker leaning over her boy, running to them she saw white hair on her child's head. What happened? She yelled, trying to get the attention of the two screaming children as she reached for Danny's wrist, searching blindly for a pulse. Why can't I find it? No, no, no, no, no, NOOOO, she screamed out loud when she realized he had no pulse, setting her head on her son's chest she hoped beyond hope to hear or feel anything, to no avail. My son, my baby boy, how could this happen? She thought to herself as she felt tears running down her cheeks.

Jack Fenton heard his wife's scream as he was at the table, about to indulge himself in a plate of fudge to counteract the disappointment of a failed invention they had spent years on, jumping from the table he took off for the lab as the plate fell from table, shattering on the floor as he left the room, moving faster than anyone would ever expect from a bear of a man his size. He reached the lab and froze; absolute terror freezing the blood in his veins as he saw his son's two friends holding each other crying, while his wife had her head on their boy's chest sobbing uncontrollably. No, he thought to himself, no, Danny doesn't have white hair so this must not be him, Right? As he finally made his feet move he approached his wife, as he got closer he looked harder at the boy's face, realizing the truth. That's my boy…..Why? How? What happened to my son? He got out in a choked voice, dropping to his knees next to his wife and grabbing his only boy's hand.

Three days later- The funeral

Jack and Maddie, consumed by grief, had allowed their longtime billionaire friend, Vlad, to arrange the memorial service as well as the following funeral, only voicing that they wished for a closed casket service for their son. The service was quite except for occasional crying, only family and close friends had been invited. Vlad had been able to hide the details of young Daniel's death, not wanting his friends to lose their daughter, Jazz, to child services right after their son had died. He knew they would not let anything happen to the only child they had left, as he had seen them close and lock the door to their lab the day after the accident. The burial was a somber affair, Vlad being the only one besides Jack, Maddie and Jazz allowed to witness. What a stupid man, that Jack Fenton is. To allow their children access to such dangerous experiments, why is Maddie still with him after all these years? He asked himself silently as he watched the man he hated holding the woman he loved tightly against his chest as she let out quite, broken sobs, his heart breaking at her suffering. Vlad left shortly after the funeral, heading back to his home in Wisconsin, not wanting to see the pain in the eyes of the woman he loved as she stuck to her husband's side.

As The Fenton Family, less one now, returned to their home, all was silent as the three sat on the couch in the living room, Jazz holding tight to her Father on one side as her mother did the same on the other, they had learned exactly what had happened a few hours after the accident when Tucker had calmed himself enough to be able to speak so they could understand, they knew Sam had loved Danny and would have a harder time calming herself, hearing what happened didn't lessen the grief at all, only making it worse for Jack and Maddie as they realized it was their own invention that had killed their child, knowing they shouldn't blame Tucker and Sam for pushing Danny into investigating the portal didn't make it any easier to talk to or see them, which was why they had only been invited to the memorial service and not the actual burial. One week after the funeral they made a unanimous decision amongst themselves, sealing and hiding the entrance to the lab they packed up their home and left Amity Park, never planning to return….
