DGG: well well well. Finally. The story that was the reason I chose my pen name. I'm finally getting to it! HAHA! Because since I've started, I've only done like a couple other things and the rest were for yugioh. yup. So here it is. My new story( or depending when u read this, it could be an old story by then.) heehee. I'm stupid. Oh well. Here's chpt 1 of The Ghost-Boy Prophecy

Also, certain parts from episodes and the movies have messed me up(also, the upcoming movie is messing me up). AHH! So... let's pretend that no one has seen Danny Phantom yet and that this happend before" The Ultimate Enemy" And the parts in "Reign Storm" that required people seeing Danny didn't happen obviously. Okiez? Okiez! We're good! yay! (does the happy jig) heehee.

DISCLAIMER: I sadly do not own Danny Phantom. But that would be cool! (smiles like a freak) heehee.

Chapter 1: The Beginning.

It was a particularly dark night in Amity Park. Danny, along with the rest of the town, was fast asleep. The last couple of weeks had been relaxing for Danny. There had been no ghosts coming through the ghost-portal. At times, that worried him. There were always ghosts around. Even the stupid box ghost hadn't been around! Nonetheless, he took full advantage of all the ghost-free days, but he was growing tired of them.

Dark clouds circled around outside. There wasn't a star to be seen in the sky tonight. The low rumble of thunder could be heard. Then, lightning started to dance across the skies. Eventually, the thunder and lightning became worse, and rain started to pound everything in sight. Danny awoke suddenly, sitting up in his bed, looking out his window. The young teen stared outside as the storm continued thinking about his latest dream. Yet another nightmare about his enemies had awakened him. He'd been haveing a lot of these dreams lately. Right before they were about to deliver the final punch to finish him off, he would wake up. After a few more minutes Danny layed back down in his bed and fell back asleep.

The next morning, he got out of bed, got dressed for the day, and ran out the door to go to Sam's house. Once he was far enough away from his home and made sure no one else was around, he changed into his ghost form to fly the rest of the way there. Once he arrived at his friend's, he looked through her bedroom window to see her playing on her computer. He tapped on the glass three times, phased through the wall, and turned back into his human form.

" What's up, Danny?" asked Sam, not taking her eyes away from the computer screen.

" You know those dreams I keep having?" he asked.

" You mean where you're getting attacked by an army of your enemies?"

" Yeah."

" Yeah."

" Well, last night I had another one, but this one was different."

Sam turned her attention away from her computer to look over at her worried friend, " What do you mean?"

" I'm not really sure," answered Danny. " Last night in my dream I could actually feel the pain. It was like I was actually there or something. It was kind of creepy."

" Lots of people can feel things in their dreams, Danny, it's nothing to worry about," said Sam.

" I've never felt anything in my dreams before though! And it wasn't just pain. It was searing pain in some cases. I know all the dreams I've had for the past few weeks have made me a little paranoid, but this dream really makes me feel like all the ghosts have been plotting against me and becoming stronger!"

" Danny, calm down! I doubt that's why no ghosts have been around."

" You don't know that!" cried Danny.

" Well, neither do you," Sam pointed out.

" True, but I have the right to think it."

" Whatever. Look, Danny, all we can do is wait this thing out. I wish we could do more, but we just can't right now."

" I know, and it's driving me crazy! I can't take much more of my so called 'vacation', Sam," whimpered Danny. " I'm actually starting to miss fighting against other ghosts. At least I used to have something to do to preoccupy my time so I wasn't so bored."

" Yeah, but then you also had to fight on school nights and you barely got any time to study or do homework," said Sam.

" Yeah, but I barely did those things anyway. That just made up an excuse for it between the three of us...and then my sister too," said Danny. " But..." he trailed off.

Sam looked at her childhood friend. He really was sad. She could tell how Danny would miss protecting the neighborhood. You would grow attatched to it after awhile. Actually, she missed going out to help Danny too so she really couldn't say much.

" Okay, I understand that you miss it, but the ghosts'll come back sometime. I don't think you have to worry about that part," she smiled.

" Yeah, I know you're right, Sam," he half smiled at her.

" So what do you want to do today?" Sam asked him, changing the subject.

" I don't know. Do you want to get Tuck and go to the movies or something?"

" Sounds like a plan to me."

Sam then turned back to her computer and clicked on Tucker's name on her buddylist and told him to meet her and Danny at the movie theater. After that, Danny and Sam started walking there. Danny stared down at the ground most of the time. He didn't even say anything unless Sam asked him something. She felt really bad not being able to help him out more.

" Hey, guys," greeted Tuck when they all got there. " Hey, you don't look so good, Danny, are you feeling okay?"

" Huh? Oh, yeah. I'm fine," he said, snapping out of his daze.

" You sure?"

" Yeah."

" He misses being a super hero," Sam told Tucker.

" Hey, I miss goin' out on our little missions too, but it'll happen again one day," said Tuck.

" One day? That makes it sound like I'll never defend our town from anything again until I'm like thirty-five or something!" cried Danny, causing some passers-by to look over at him.

" Well, okay, you two, let's get going into the theater," said Sam, shoving her two friends through the doors.

Once inside, Sam gave out the orders.

" Okay, I'll go buy the tickets. Tuck, you'll go get us all some snacks, and Danny, you can either help out Tucker or go find us some good seats."

" Um, I have to go use the bathroom real quick before I do anything," said Danny.

" I don't know, man," quieried Tuck. " According to my watch, we have exactly six minutes until the movie starts, and it is going to be packed in there! Are you sure you don't want to just hold it and go get us some seats...or help me with the snacks..."

" Just let Danny go. It won't take me that long to get the tickets so I'll help you with the snacks, Tuck, don't worry," smiled Sam.

" All right, but hurry up, Danny!" cried Tuck.

" I will," answered Danny, heading for the bathroom.

He walked off and rounded the corner to the bathroom when all the sudden he gasped. There was a ghost near. Danny looked around and didn't see anyone.

" All right then," he smirked to himself. " I'm goin' ghost!"

He jumped into the air as two rings appeared replacing his everyday clothing with a black and white suit. Instantly, he flew through the walls in search of the ghost that set his sense off. The problem was, he couldn't find it!

" Come on!" Danny complained. " My ghost sense never lies! It always goes off when there's a ghost nearby so where is it?"

Suddenly, Danny heard a bunch of screams coming from one of the theaters. He put his game face on as he rushed into it, ready to fight, only to find they were screaming at a part in the movie they were watching. Danny sighed. Maybe his sense had somehow been wrong. Maybe he never really even saw it. His mind was probably playing tricks on him.

With a depressed look on his face, Danny flew back to the bathrooms and changed back to normal. By the time he got back to his friends and sat down, the movie had already started.

" What were you doing in there?" whispered Tuck. " You said it wouldn't take long!"

" Sorry, I thought my ghost sense went off, but I couldn't find the ghost responsible for it so I guess I just imagined it," explained Danny.

" Oh...well, okay."

Tucker looked at his friend as Danny stared blankly at the screen before him. He didn't realize Danny was so desperate to help save the town again! Or maybe it wasn't Danny, but it was the ghost part of him. Maybe that was it. Tuck could be wrong though.

Suddenly, the theater started to rumble beneath everyone's feet. Danny and his friends sat up straight just as a giant green worm-like ghost burst through the floor at the front of the theater, sending chairs and people flying everywhere!

" Okay, Danny, maybe you weren't imagining things!" cried Tuck as he and his two best friends stood up.

" Guys, cover me," said Danny, shoving his two friends together while he turned into a ghost behind them.

Instantly, he flew towards the ghost and started attacking it. He used his ghost ray, but it wasn't very affective. It didn't even faze the ghost worm!

" Now what is Danny gonna do?" asked Sam.

" I don't know!" cried Tuck. " I don't even think there's anything we can do to help out!"

Suddenly, the ghost worm sprouted a stringy tentacle and wrapped it around Danny. People watched in horror at the image infront of them.

" No, maybe there is something we can do, Tuck. We can help get these people out of here," said Sam.

" That's probably a good idea!" Danny cried at her while trying to get loose from the ghost's clutches.

Tuck and Sam nodded and started gathering people to get to safety.

After that, Danny split in half at the waist, allowing him to free himself from the worm's tentacle. The worm howled in anger. Danny reassembled himself just in time to see the tentacle coming straight for him again. He quickly flew to the left, dodging it and quickly flew inside the worm to overshadow it so it coudln't do any harm to the people that were left in the theater. That plan didn't last long. Just as quickly as Danny had overshadowed the worm, he was thrown back out of it.

" Whoa, I've never had someone...or something resist that before. This is bad. I don't even have the Fenton thermos to capture it! This is just great!" Danny yelled to himself.

Next, Danny was sent hurdling across the room. The worm had caught him off-guard and sent him crashing a the wall just as Sam came back in to round up more people. She gasped. " Are you all right?"

" I-I'm okay," answered Danny. " Just get some more people out!"

Sam nodded and went running for a group of people in the opposite corner. Before Sam got there, the worm slammed its tentacle onto the ground, blocking her from the group. The worm looked over at Sam who stared back at it. She knew she was in trouble. The ghost sprouted another long tentacle and wrapped it around her and brought her upto its face.

" Let go of me!" she cried, trying to get free but it was no use. The ghost opened its large shark-like jaw, ready to devour her.

Sam closed her eyes. This was it. This was the end. No mortals could stop this thing, and poor Danny was trying to pull himself back together in the corner. He couldn't come help her now! The worm lifted her higher into the air still holding its mouth wide open. Finally, it let go of her. Screaming, she fell into the giant worm's mouth!

" No!" cried Danny from the corner. He looked up just in time to see Sam fall into the ghost's mouth! He had to get Sam out of there! But how?

Danny jumped into the air and started flying towards ghost, ready to strike it, but before he could get there the worm smashed Danny in between its two tentacles like an annoying bug. The worm watched as Danny fell to the ground with a thud. It seemed like it was laughing at him as Danny weakly stood on his hands and knees.

'Man, what am I going to do?' Danny asked himself. ' Who knew a worm could be so hard to defeat! And what's worse is that it swallowed one of my best friends! How am I supposed to get her back?'

Danny flew slowly up into the air. At that moment, he was really wishing that he didn't want to fight another ghost so badly. The ghost only watched as his foe flew higher towards the ceiling. The worm got ready for an attack from the halfa, but that's not what happened. Much to the ghost's surprise, Danny turned invisible. Now it was angry; it just lost sight of its prey. It looked all around the room for the young halfa, but there was nothing there. It suddenly noticed the people in the corner that Sam had tried to get to. It started to turn around and lunged for the frightened mortals when they seemed to glow and phase through the wall behind them. The worm stopped where it was, confused. Suddenly, it felt a very painful blow to its head.

Danny reappeared behind it. He watched as the worm looked all around it. He almost wanted to laugh at it. Much to Danny's dismay, the ghost worm knew where he was. As Danny floated just above the worm's back, it used its tail to whack him away. Danny got smart this time and turned intangible just before hitting the wall, then phased back through it. The ghost worm wasn't very happy at all at this point. It then sprouted tons or dirty yellow spikes all over its back and arched its back into the air like a cat and fired them right off his body! Danny gasped as they acted like missiles and all circled around to rain down upon him.

Danny went intangible just as the spikes came hurling down on him. The worm was upset that this didn't work either. It needed more power, but there wasn't anyone else to eat. The only other presence in the room was the halfa's, but he couldn't consume ghosts to make him stronger so there would be no point in eating Danny. But then a thought struck the worm. What if he made the halfa turn back to a human? Then he could eat him! Also, there would be no one left to stop him from destroying anything else! It was perfect. But how was he going to do it?

Danny awaited the next attack, but was confused by the worm's lack of movement.

' What's it doing?' he wondered.

Danny decided not to wait any longer. He would avenge Sam! He had to. His fists started glowing green as he thought about his poor friend. Suddenly, he found himself shooting tons of ectoplasmic blasts at his enemy; the worm was caught completely off-guard. Each blast hit the worm with a great amount of force making it holler in pain. Eventually, it was completely knocked onto its side, but that didn't stop Danny. He kept fireing. He was somehow hoping the ghost would cough Sam back up, but he knew that wouldn't be happening. So out of even more anger he kept fireing at top speed.

Finally after a few more minutes, Danny stopped fireing. He panted heavily like he'd just run a race. The ghost worm layed on its side, smoke coming off it from all the blasts. Danny quickly flew over to it. It wasn't moving. Maybe he knocked it out? Or maybe it was faking it. He wasn't sure which one it was or if it was something different.

At that moment, Tucker came running back in at full speed into the theater. He panted heavily when he stopped just below Danny.

" Man...what...did...you...do...?" he panted while staring at the ghost.

" I attacked it," answered Danny absently. " Hey, where were you anyways?"

" I was...getting...the thermos." Tucker held it up to show his friend.

Danny flew down beside Tuck, taking his parents' invention.

" Yes!" Danny cried. " Now I can get Sam back!"

Tucker looked at his friend with a puzzled look, but didn't say anything. Danny took off the cap and watched as the ghost was sucked inside the small thermos. Once the ghost was inside the thermos and Danny closed the lid he changed back into a human.

Both boys looked to where the worm had been and were shocked at what they'd seen.

" Dude, where's Sam?" asked Tuck.

Danny stared at the site with confusion. It wasn't possible for her to be sucked into the thermos, so where could she possibly be?

" Hey, what are you kids still doing in here?" asked the manager of the theater. Tuck and Danny whirled around to see him standing in the doorway. " And where's that monster, and that strange white-haired boy everyone outside is talking about?"

Tucker and Danny looked at eachother.

Um...they left," said Tuck. " Yeah, the white-haired kid took the worm and left the theater. I don't know where they went to though..."

Danny nodded the whole time. The manager eyed them,not sure if they were really telling the entire truth, but sighed. " You two had better get out of here. Who knows if this part of the theater is even stable anymore.

Danny looked around and saw that there was debris everywhere. There were cracks in the walls and chairs were thrown everywhere. Some were even stuck in the walls. Parts of the walls had even begun to crumble! The two nodded at the manager who promptly turned and left. Tuck and Danny turned back around and looked again at where the ghost had been. The two boys looked at eachother.

" Sam," Tucker said to himself.

Suddenly, the boys heard a noise that sounded like something was stirring.

" Hey, could somebody help me?" called a voice. Danny and Tuck instantly brightened when they heard it. They looked up to find Sam crawling over a pile of chairs that was directly in front of them.

" Sam, you're alive!" cried Tuck happily.

" Yeah, we didn't know where you were for a second," said Danny.

" Yeah. When the ghost got sucked into your thermos, I was thrown over that pile of chairs," she told her two friends.

" Well, that's a relief," said Tuck.

Sam smiled. " Hey, I'm glad to see you guys again. When that worm swallowed me, I thought I was a goner for sure." She walked over and hugged her two best friends who happily returned it.

" So now what should we do?" asked Tuck.

" I don't know," answered Danny. " We could just walk around the town for awhile."

" Works for me," said Sam.

With that, the three friends left the movie complex.

In the ghost zone, a dark figure had watched the entire fight. He swiveled his hand so that the portal that was enabling him to watch disappeared.

" So the little ghost-boy was able to defeat that worm afterall," it said. " Oh well. That was just a test anyway. If it wasn't for his anger rising, he wouldn't have been to conjure so many blasts so quickly. Otherwise the ghost may have been able to defeat him. No matter. I'll just have to send someone else to do the job right. Don't worry, Danny. Your vacation from fighting ghosts has just ended."
