I was reading some Danny Phantom X Soul Eater crossovers and liked the idea and potential of one of them. It was where Danny was the son of Stein, everyone's favorite DWMA teacher. However, after the story introduced Danny, it was discontinued. Disappointed, I decided to make my own version of Danny being son of Stein. This will be different, because he'll still be biologically related to Jack and Maddie Fenton. Well, I should stop explaining and let the story do the talking.
Here we go.
Danny woke up to talking. He yawned and changed into a t-shirt and jeans. He walked downstairs. "Mom? Dad? Who are you guys talking to at this hour?" He asked. When he saw who they were talking to, he grasped at his own head and stepped back in shock. The man had a screw in his head. "Holy crap!"
"Danny! Language!" His mother scowled. Danny shrugged at that, still shocked about the screw in the man's head. The man himself laughed.
"Danny, you're shocked about my screw, aren't you?"
"Jee, you think?! Most people would! It's not every day people meet someone with a screw in their head!"
"You might want to sit down. We need to talk." Maddie said. Danny raised an eyebrow, but did as told.
"What is this about? My grades are improving, so I hope it's not-"
"It has nothing to do with your grades, Danny." Maddie cut off. "The truth is, we've partially have been lying to you."
"About what?"
"You don't have two parents, you have three. Stein here is your second dad. You're a Fentonstein."
"What?! But isn't that physically impossible? Where's the logic? The biology?" Danny blurted. "How can someone possibly be the child of three people?!"
"Well, Danny, originally they were your only parents, but after five months of being in your mother's stomach, you started to show signs of dying." Stein explained. "That's where I came in. I was their friend in high school, and they knew of my expertise in biology and of my miracles. I donated some of my own blood and DNA to help, because of its advanced healing abilities and its adaptability. I saved your life."
"I-I was supposed to die?"
"But you didn't, which is a good thing, isn't it?"
Danny nodded. "But why tell me now? Why not earlier?"
"Because you're going to the DWMA now. You're leaving tomorrow."
"But what about Amity? My friends? You guys?"
"You'll see us during your vacations."
"What about when I'm gone? This place will fall apart!"
"Now calm down. Jazz will have to do your chores while you're gone. There's no need to worry."
"If you say so."
"And since today is your last day in Amity, I'd like for you to be at school on time."
"Yeah, okay mom. Whatever."
"And Stein will be there after school, that way he can meet your friends."
"Okay, I guess." Danny didn't really care. At this point, walking around with a parent who obviously has some screws loose, completely pun intended, was nothing compared to what he dealt with every day. "Well, see you guys." He left. On his way to school, his ghost sense went off. "Please be the box ghost. I really need to punch something right now."
"Sorry, whelp, but I'm not even close to being that pathetic imbecile!"
Danny rolled his eyes and transformed into his alter ego. "Hey, Skulker. Can we make this fight quick? This is my last day here in Amity after all."
"Yeah, because you're gonna be a pelt on my wall!" He shot his rocket at the boy.
"No, because I'm transferring to a school that's out of town." Danny dodged and sent an ectoblast at Skulker, then sucked the ghost in the Fenton thermos. He flew back down and transformed back to normal. He went into school and opened up his locker. He cleaned it out and stuffed everything into his bag. As he closed his locker, Sam and Tucker were next to him.
"What are you doing, Danny?" Sam asked.
"Oh, hey Sam. Tucker. Turns out today is my last day in Amity for the rest of the school year."
"What?!" His friends exclaimed.
"I reacted the same way. Here's what happened, this morning I woke up, went downstairs, and saw my parents talking to some guy with a screw in his head. Turns out I have two biological dads. The guy's name is Stein. Talk about coincidence! A screw is in his head and his name is Stein! Well, anyways, I'm going to a school called the DWMA, and now I learned that my real last name is actually Fentonstein." Danny took in a deep breath. "That is the story of my morning."
"Damn, that sucks. What about Amity though? It's gonna be a hellhole without you."
"You two are nuts! He's going to the DWMA! A school that produces heroes!" Tucker said, a bit too loudly, because Dash heard.
"Fenton a hero? Yeah right! He won't survive a day!" He cackled. "He's way too weak!"
"You don't know that! He could be a great hero!" Sam shot back.
"Yeah sure, and I have pink hair!" Everyone laughed. Danny glared.
"Jerk." He called Dash. Dash growled a little and threw a punch at Danny, who dodged and began to walk to class. But Dash threw another punch, hitting Danny in the back of the head.
"Looks like the wimp needs to learn his lesson!" He rose his fist again, attempting to ouch Danny again. However, as he threw the punch, Danny grabbed the boy's fist. Dash's eyes widened. "What the?" He was flipped over. Danny simply continued his walk to class. Everyone stared at him, shocked. He hurt Dash! A scrawny kid! They couldn't believe their eyes. Dash got even angrier. He ran after Danny and kicked him in the stomach, sending the young halfa flying. Danny rose up from where he was and continued walking once again.
"I don't have time to deal with you, Dash. Think what you want, I don't care. I'm going to class." He said tiredly. Everyone watched as the young halfa walked to class. He attended every class with ease. No one wanted to be near him. The teachers didn't know why the other students were like that, but they didn't care. They all gave Danny their farewells as he returned his textbooks to them.
As soon as the day ended, he met up with Sam and Tucker. They went outside of the school to see Stein waiting. Danny sighed. "There he is. My other dad."
"You weren't joking about him having a few screws loose." Tucker laughed. Danny and Sam rolled their eyes. Stein saw them and waved.
"Bout time school ended for you three. The DWMA has half the number of hours, making this look like hell."
"Nice to meet you, Stein." Sam said as she shook his hand.
"Pleasure is mine. You are the one named Sam, right?"
"Yessir, that's right." Even with the Frankenstein theme, he seems saner than Danny's other parents.
"Actually, Sam, his parents are saner than I am."
"How did you know what I was thinking?!" Sam questioned, shocked.
"I can see the souls of other people. Read their personalities, wavelengths, and thoughts."
"That's so cool, man! Can Danny do that?!" Tucker asked excitedly. Stein nodded.
"He has the ability, but from what I can tell, he has yet to use it."
"Cool!" Tucker admitted. Danny rolled his eyes.
"If you say so." Then someone tapped him on the shoulder. The young halfa turned and glared. "What are you doing here, Vlad?"
"Ah, Daniel, calm down. I'm in town to check on Axion labs, considering I own the company, and decided to stop by and say hi to the child of my dear friends." He told the younger halfa, eying Stein with caution.
"Kay. Hello. Now leave me alone." Danny grumbled.
"Daniel, I do have a question for you."
"What?"
"Who is this?"
"..."
"Daniel, who is he?"
"My second dad."
"What?!" He has this man as his other parent, but not me?! This is an outrage!
"Yeah, turns out I have two biological dads."
Biological? How is even that possible? I will have to find out later. "I was unaware that you have a second father."
"So was I, until today." Danny shrugged. He's going to ask about it, no doubt. "Well, we've got to go. See you another time, Fruitloop." Danny parted, his friends and second father following him.
"Same to you, Little Badger."
Danny showed Stein around town until it was time for dinner. His friends went to their homes while he and Stein went to his. His mom ordered pizza, soda, and Chinese food. Everyone ate and talked. After dinner, Danny told everyone that he was going to go to bed. He went up into his room, grabbed his Fenton Thermos, transformed into his alter ego, and invisibly went to the basement. He opened the portal and released Skulker back into the Ghost Zone. He then went back up to his room, locked his door, set the thermos down on his burrow, then flew out the window. He glided through the air, doing many twists and turns. He was going to miss being in Amity. He glanced down at his hometown, face saddened. He didn't know what to expect from the DWMA, but he knew one thing. It sure as hell was going to be interesting.
After an hour of flying, he decided to take a break. He sat on a random billboard that was on top of an apartment building. He sighed. "I hope the town does well while I'm gone. If not, then Sam and Tucker better contact me about the issues they have. I wonder what the DWMA will be like too. I hope it's fun. Oh well, guess I'll find out tomorrow."
"Talking to yourself, Daniel? That's not good you know." A figure behind him said. Danny grunted.
"You're one to talk. Shouldn't you be back in Wisconsin?"
"Yes, however, after our encounter earlier, I wanted to talk with you." Vlad sat down next to the younger halfa. "You know, I really thought that you chose that man as your secondary father. I'm glad you told me that you're related to him. You worried me until you mentioned that."
"I know. And I know that you were going to eventually ask me about that. That's why I mentioned it." Danny replied. "I would be worried too, if I were in your shoes. I think anyone would be. My dad has a screw in his head after all."
Vlad smiled. "This is nice." Danny raised an eyebrow.
"What is?"
"Talking to you. We're not fighting for once, and you're not criminalizing me."
"You have yet to give me a reason to."
"So, what is this DWMA that you mentioned?"
"A school. My parents are having me leave Amity to go there. Tucker mentioned that it is for heroes."
"Coincidence much?"
"Yeah, big coincidence. I'm a hero already, and now I'm going to be at a school for heroes."
"You'll do fine, Little Badger. You've always been able to adapt to different situations."
"If you say so. But I still have my doubts. I'm pretty sure that I can't just hit my enemies, while in human form, with an ectoblast. People will put two and two together. Sure, my flight and super strength I can use without suspicion, given the right moment, but I'm still terrible at hand to hand combat."
"That's why they want you to go, right? To learn?"
"Yeah, I guess. But at the same time, it could also be the fact my second dad teaches there and they want be to get to know him." Danny looked down. "Man, why does my life have to be so complicated? It's not fair." Then all of a sudden, Vlad wrapped his arms around the younger halfa, engulfing him in a hug. Then he let go.
"Daniel, don't think about every situation like this. Everything happens for a reason, remember that." He said. Tears ran down Danny's cheeks.
"You don't get it! Of course I know that everything happens for a reason, but I know things I shouldn't! I know about both of us that you don't know! Something that gives others nightmares!"
"Daniel, what do you mean?"
"I-I don't know why I mentioned that. Forget I said anything. I've just been emotional lately. I don't know why."
"Perhaps you hold to much in. You deal with a lot, that I do know. And between being a teenager and having to fight to protect your town, you hold a lot in. And I know it doesn't help with your mother and father, the one you grew up with, being ghost hunters. Now you know that you have a second father, and that adds to the stress."
"I guess. But like I said, Vlad. You don't know what I know."
"Of course I don't. How can I? I'm a completely different person! You have different knowledge from mine and have gone through a lot more than I have at your age."
"Yeah, you're right. And I can't believe I'm saying this, but I-I actually agree with you. I'm afraid of everything that might happen."
"My boy, everything will be fine. And I bet that you will be the top of your class. You have a lot of potential."
"T-thanks." Danny yawned. "Well, I should probably get going. Night."
"Goodnight Daniel." Vlad replied as he watched the younger halfa fly away. Unknown to Danny, Vlad used one of his powers when he hugged him. He used his core to release the stress Danny was holding onto. And because of that, Danny became emotional. That wasn't Vlad's goal, but he didn't mind. He still helped Danny, which was his main reason to coming here. He smiled to himself and flew back to his own home in Wisconsin.
As Danny flew back home, he crashed into Dani. He looked at her. "Sorry about that, Dani. How have you been?"
"Good, you?"
"For the most part. Today was weird though. To summarize everything, I have a second biological dad, I'm going to a new school, Vlad visited today and didn't cause trouble, and I had an emotional breakdown in front of him."
"Wow." Then Dani's eyes widened. "Wait, then that's the same for me!"
"Yeah, guess so. So, what brings you to Amity?"
"I want to live with you and your family. As your sister."
"How are you going to do that?"
"We should sit them down and tell them. You said before that they accepted you before. Even if you erased their memories."
"Daniā¦"
"Or we could do something else. Tell them that a ghost used your DNA and Phantom's DNA to create me."
Danny face palmed. "That sounds worse than telling them the truth."
"How so?"
"Because that sounds like you're my child when you're not. You're my sister, and they'd take your thought the wrong way."
"Come on! Do you have any better ideas?"
"No."
Then it's settled! Make a duplicate and let's go!"
Danny sighed and did as told. They all flew back and the original Danny transformed back to normal. They went downstairs. "Mom? Dads?"
His parents looked up and their eyes widened. Jack jumped up. "GHOSTS!" He grabbed the Fenton bazooka and aimed it at Dani and Phantom. Danny guarded them.
"Dad, no! Listen! We need to tell you something, just as you told us!"
Jack lowered his weapon. "Fine, explain why they're here."
The teens sat down and Danny opened his mouth to speak. "Well, how do I put this? Dani here is a clone mix of Phantom and I."
Maddie was shocked. "How? When? Why?"
"A ghost really wanted Phantom and I to be his sons, and out of desperation, he started cloning. Dani here wasn't the first. However, she was the only one that was stabilized. We helped her put an end to his projects the day Sam, Tucker, and I skipped school. Now Phantom and I consider her a sister. When she's a ghost, she's technically Phantom's sister, and when she's human, she's mine."
Dani transformed into her human form. Jack and Maddie gasped while Stein rose an eyebrow. Dani smiled. "Pretty cool, huh?"
"It certainly is. However," Stein narrowed his eyes. "Danny and Phantom here have the same soul. They're one and the same."
Maddie and Jack looked at Stein shocked. "What do you mean they share the same soul?!" Maddie questioned.
"They're the same person. But I believe they were separated. Sometimes souls are broken into fragments and develop two different bodies. Phantom here is the dead version of Danny."
Looks like they found out a different way. I might as well have straight up told them I was Phantom. Danny thought. He looked at Phantom who simply shrugged. "So, uh, what now?"
"I believe that Phantom has the ability to combine himself with you. Broken souls are able to mend after all. However, I'm not sure what will happen if you do."
"Don't know till we try." Phantom said. Jack and Maddie were set back by this.
"You're not actually doing this, are you?! You don't know what could happen!"
"Neither do you. Besides, I don't mind the idea." Danny told her. He looked at his duplicate and nodded. His duplicate was called back, looking like they were combining themselves with one another. He grabbed at his head. "Kay, that was weird." He lied. His parents seemed to believe him though.
"Are you alright?" Maddie asked.
"Can you transform too?!" Jack boasted.
Danny sighed. "Yes I'm fine. Let's see." Danny acted like he had a hard time with the transformation. It looked believable. "Guess so. Also, now I have all of Phantom's memories and it's weird. But we, now I, wanted to know if she could come with me to DWMA."
"I don't see why not." Stein said. "But now I have to make two school uniforms, which means that when we arrive in Death City tomorrow, you have a few days till school."
"Okay!" The Phantom siblings smiled. Then they yawned.
"Okay, you two. Time to go to bed." Maddie informed. "And Danny? Please transform back to normal. I don't want you phasing through your bed."
"Kay!" Then Danny and Dani went upstairs to bed.
I picture Vlad as a little fatherly towards Danny. Something that just can't get out of my head. Oh well, hope you enjoyed. Please review and subscribe!
