Hey everyone! I know it's been awhile since I've last came out with a story and for that I'm sorry. Life has been busy and so on. But I've finally started writing again and I like where this idea is going for once. For many people they might think that this is a normal Danny Phantom field trip gone wrong sort of thing. But I can already assure you that this story is going to be different from the rest!. Enough of me ranting and time to get on with the chapter!

Disclaimer: I don't own Danny Phantom

Claimer: I'm not going to say because it would be a spoiler.

Chapter 1

Danny stared at the piece of paper in front of him in disbelief. He thought that this was a dream, but another part of him knew this was real. Looking over to Sam, Tucker, and Dani they were also sharing the same reactions as his. Of all the places to think of for this year sleepover field trips, Mr. Lancer chooses to go to the Ghost Zone.

There were many scenarios that were running through his head. Skulker, Walker, Technus, Ember, and a million other ghosts that want his hide could attack. Especially considering that he wanted to keep his ghost half a secret. It was hard enough when the ghosts come to him, but now he's going to the ghosts, it's going to be ten times harder.

He silently prayed that no one wanted to go. The permission slips were due tomorrow since it takes awhile to prepare to go into the Ghost Zone. Though his heart sunk, the next day 37 people out of the class of 43 had a signed permission slip.

Danny knew that means that there are going to be 37 people who don't know his secret that he has to protect. The only comfort that he has is that Dani is going to be there. So even if he couldn't go ghost, Dani might be able to sneak away and do it. So instead of paying attention to Lancer's lecture, Danny started making a list of all the equipment that Team Phantom is going to need.

Day of the trip

All along Danny's bed was ghost hunting equipment. Protecting his classmates, parents, and Mr. Lancer was his priority right now. Since Jazz couldn't come because someone had to stay behind incase a ghost attacks Amity Park, so she was taking care of Danny's and Dani's personal needs.

Dani officially became a Fenton about two months ago. After Valerie helped Danny stabilize Dani, he decided to tell his parents about his clone. He blamed Vlad Plasmius did it when he kidnapped Danny. So both Jack and Maddie agreed to adopt Dani. They don't know about how she really is a clone of Danny Phantom, but to explain the ectoplasm in her blood, they came up with the excuse that ectoplasm was part of what made her stable.

"Ok we have enough Fenton Phones for each person?" Danny asked as he pulled out a checklist from his drawer.

"39 pairs and one smaller pair for Dani." Sam stated as she double-checked her counting.

"At least four Fenton Thermoses that are tuned not to suck me or Dani in?" Danny asked as he checked off the Fenton Phones off his list.

Dani threw five Thermoses into the air and then caught them with ease. She placed one in everyone's backpack and the last one on a specter deflector.

"Ok, how many Spector Deflectors do we have?" Danny asked as he continued down his list. The students would start arriving in just one hour and he felt like this was going to be a big disaster.

"We have three that won't shock you or Dani and another thee that need to be fine tuned so it won't shock you or Dani. But I can make the last modifications while we are on the Specter Speeder XL." Tucker finished as he started working on his PDA that was attached to one of the Spector Deflectors. Everyone put one on, obviously Dani and Danny took the ones that wouldn't shock them. Sam took the last one that was completely finished, while Tucker placed the last two in his bag. Danny's belt has the last thermos.

In the end there were about twenty different ecto-weapons that Danny's parents made. Danny also brought his Bo staff and Kanata that was made out of ecto energy. Along with that, both Sam and Tucker had their own Fenton Ghost Peeler in their bags. With nothing more they can pack the four went downstairs and loaded their bags into the Specter Speeder XL. They already had their Fenton Phones on and tuned to the frequency that they only know.

Soon after that the students started to arrive. Some packed as little as there school backpacks filled with clothes. Though a few packed as if they were going on a hiking trip. Before the students were allowed onto the Speeder they each were required to wear a pair of Fenton Phones. During the distribution there were quite a lot of moans and groans.

At the base of the stairs stood Sam with her arms crossed. "Can I get everyone's attention?" She asked loud enough for everyone to hear. But the students just simply ignored her and continued on. Sam was getting irritated and grasped the ice crystal hanging around her neck. Danny made her right after Undergrowth's attack. Whenever she touched it, Sam felt calmer. "Let me try this again... Listen to me or you WILL be staying in Amity Park during this trip!"

The minute everyone heard that the room went dead quiet. A smirk formed quickly across her face. "Ok while Mr. and Ms. Fenton are running last minute checks on the Specter Speeder XL I'm going to give you some rules! First things first, never under any circumstances ever take off the items we gave you at the door! They are communication devices along with filtering out spectral noise. Second off, during this trip you have to listen to Tucker, any of the Fentons, and myself at all times! Any questions?"

Paulina shouted out," why should we listen to a bunch of nobodies?" She smirked, knowing that she is the most popular girl here.

Sam crossed her arms and smiled. She knew that she was going to win this argument hands down. "Have you been fighting ghosts for the last two years?"

"No."

"Have you ever used an ecto-weapon before?"

"No."

"Have you ever been in the Ghost Zone?"

"No. Have you?"

"Yes I have, mutable times actually. I'm also not so shallow that someone could stand in my puddle and not get their feet wet. Any other questions?" Sam smirked as she picked out Paulina's now very red face.

After that little stand off, the students were loaded up into the Specter Speeder XL. Team Phantom were split up incase of an attack. Danny was in the front with Sam while Dani was in the back with Tucker. The ride was quiet for the first hour, to the point that Tucker fell asleep.

But as soon as he fell asleep something shook the ship and he yelped as something grabbed him. When he turned his head Tucker saw Dani Phantom holding his wrist. Then in front of him was Danny Phantom and Sam.

He groaned as he saw what grabbed the ship, two large thorny vines were wrapped around the ship as it was dragged down towards the ground. "Great! More veggies!" He complained as a vine grabbed him and Dani. Then the vine formed into a fist which was connected to an arm which was of course connected to Undergrowth.

Undergrowth looked at Dani and Tucker first," pitiful meat bagsss. I should feed you to the children right now. But my... daughter had a fondness for you two. So you shall live... For now." Undergrowth crackled and knocked the two unconsciouses. Then he placed them on his shoulder and secured vines so they wouldn't fall off.

Now Undergrowth turned his attention to his daughter. They were both struggling but making no progress. He lifted them up to eye level and smiled as he opened his hand. "Samantha and Daniel. How nice for you to drop in. So Samantha, are you prepared to rejoin the Growth?"

Sam started to shake in rage, images of what she did while she was possessed by Undergrowth flashed through her mind. She shivered at the thought of going back to being controlled again. "I would never do that again! Not after you made me fight Danny!" She screamed and defiantly stomped her foot down. Though it was quite obvious that didn't phase Undergrowth.

"I'm sure that young Daniel might say differently. Just look." Undergrowth smiled and said, looking at Danny with great interest. Sam gasped when she saw what was happening to Danny. His transformation rings were alternating between green and blue. The green rings would manage to go up his body a few inches before his rings would turn blue and return to his waist.

Sam knew that Undergrowth was trying to get him to morph into Danny Phantom, but Danny wanted to stay Fenton. She tightly grabbed her ice crystal and tried to calm down. It wasn't working very well," Danny would never help you willingly! He is a good person!"

"Fine then, if you won't join me willingly because of Daniel then how about to protect you friends? Because I have a few of my children that are quiet hungry right now."

That did it for Sam, she was furious. If looks could kill, Undergrowth would be a dead ghost. She took one step forward, which caused Undergrowth to flinch back. There was one purple ring at the bottom of her feet. Then it slowly went up her body before disappearing at the top of her head.

Sam's appearance completely changed. She was now wearing a black shirt that cut off two inches before her stomach. On the back were green vines that cross over and connect in the front as a single vine. On her chest was an "S" with a "P" on the inside. Her pants were also black with a green stripe on each leg starting at the waist and ends at her ankle. She had on purple gloves and boots; her eyes were now glowing green. Instead of her hair up, it was down and to keep her bangs out of her face was a green vine acting as a headband. "Leave. Them. Alone!" She screamed through clenched teeth.

Undergrowth was in a state of shock, last time he encountered Samantha, and she was full human. Though right before him was not just two half-human half-ghosts, but three! 'No matter, only Daniel could stop me last time and he's currently out of the picture. This is just going to take a bit more time then I first though.' Undergrowth though, the smiled and looked maliciously at Sam.

While that was going on, Sam calmed down enough to look over what happened to her. She liked the outfit but noticed the logo on her chest and blushed. It took her a few moments to figure out what it meant. 'I'm half ghost like Danny and Dani? How? Why?' A million and one questions were running through her head. But the sound of an ecto-gun going off shook her out of it.

Looking around she saw Valerie on her board. Sam knew that she couldn't fight Undergrowth by herself; she took a gamble on what she was just about to do. But before she did, Sam looked over Danny. He was currently unconscious, but thankfully his transformation rings have disappeared. Sucking in a deep breath, Sam shouted," Valerie help!"

Valerie turned her head sharply to where she heard the voice. 'Sam?' She asked herself, a bit concerned. She turned her board towards the two figures on the giant ghosts hand. But her worry turned to anger when she saw an unconscious Danny next to a ghost. She pulled up to the pair and held a gun at Sam.

Sam proceed to ignore her and picked up Danny. She gently placed him on the board. She was about to say something then she felt two rings surround her then disappear. She climbed onto the board and shouted," Valerie! Fly!"

Valerie came out of her dazed state and flew away, just in time. If the trio had remained there for a few more seconds then Undergrowth's hand would have hit them. "Sam! You're a ghost? Since when? Why? How! What happened to Danny?"

Sam sat with her legs crossed and Danny was on her legs. She placed a hand on his back but pulled it back quickly as she felt something sticky. Looking at her hand was Danny's blood, red with a hint of green. "Damm, he's bleeding. Danny must have reopened those slash wounds he got from Skulker yesterday. Ok here are the answers in order of when you asked them. Yes, I'm half ghost apparently. Since when? Oh ten minutes ago. The why and how I'm still working out on how that happened. And what's going on with Danny, I'm pretty sure he's passed out from fighting Undergrowth's control."

"Wow, rough day. I can't fly as fast as I can with three passengers. Do you think he will be fine if we drop him off on the ground?"

"Maybe, but I would need to stop the bleeding first then someone would have to activate the Spector Deflector for me. How come you aren't shooting at me right now?"

"Because I'm your friend and I don't shoot my friends. Besides, I don't think half-breeds are bad. You can thank Dani for that."

"Dani! Crap Valerie! She and Tucker were stuck on Undergrowth's shoulder!" Sam shouted as the trio reached the ground. But as soon as Sam got Danny lying on the floor a purple mist came out of her mouth. Spinning around she saw that Dani and Tucker flying towards them. "I don't care how you got out! Danny bleeding now!" Sam shouted as she grabbed the thermos from Danny's belt and jumped onto Valerie's board.

The two females took off immediately leaving a confused Tucker and Dani with an unconscious Danny. "Hey do you have any ice based weapons on you?" She asked, trying to morph again. She didn't have anything to go on since Danny never explained how he morphed.

"I've got a few... Why?" Valerie asked, shooting down the psychopathic plants standing in the duos way. They were circling around Undergrowth's waist. Any higher then the likelihood of getting swatted out of the sky increased.

After a few more minutes of flying Sam finally was able to morph. Two bright purple rings formed around Sam's waist and moved up and down her body respectively. She smiled in triumph and took a deep breath in. "I think that I can turn us intangible long enough for us to reach his roots. Th-" She started off but was caught off as Valerie caught drift of what she was planning.

In their steep dive, Valerie swapped all of her available weapons to shoot ice instead of ecto-plasma. "If we freeze the roots then the giant plant become much more manageable!" She shouted above the air passing through their ears. Sam weakly nodded, since she was not used to going this fast at this angle. But she kept her hands around Valerie's waist, while keeping an eye on how far the ground was from their position.

'50 feet, now 40, 30, 20, 10... 0!' She counted down the distance from the tip of the board to the ground. She had to trust Valerie in navigation as she concentrated hard on being intangible. When Danny first got his ghost powers, she would work with him for hours. She knew that if she let up now that Valerie might be hurt seriously.

Though just as Sam was about to give up on keeping the two intangible, they broke through the surface unharmed. Sam was now kneeling on the board; she weakly looked up and saw Undergrowth starting to become frozen in ice. She weakly jumped into the air before falling a few feet. Valerie was just about to dive after her, but Sam managed to gain altitude. Once Sam was eye level with Undergrowth she launched two Ghost Rays at him. She was prepared to suck him into the thermos but ended up getting swatted out of the sky. The thermos was thrown into the air; Valerie then caught it and spun around trying to catch up to Sam.

Sam screamed in agony as she fell from the sky, she couldn't force herself to open her eyes from exhaustion. She landed in the clearing over by Danny, Dani, and Tucker. When she landed there was a large thud and she was in the center of a large crater. She tried to get up but the violet rings surrounded her and she changed back to her human form. Dani leapt up and slid down the crater seeing how Sam was.

The minute he heard Sam scream Danny was awake. He felt that he reopened his wounds from yesterday and that they were all bandaged up. He struggled to get into a sitting position, when he looked around he saw Valerie flying around facing Undergrowth along with Tucker jumping into a large crater. When he stood up, Danny saw that laying unconscious in the middle of the crater was Sam. His eyes flashed green before he grasped the cold sensation in the middle of his body. Just like the millions of times he has done this, the two light blue transformation rings appear from his waist. The top ring traveling up his body, finally disappearing at the top of his hair. With the bottom ring going down before disappearing at his feet.

He jumped into the air, but not before clutching his side first. But ignoring that, he continued on his climb towards Valerie who was now blasting Undergrowth with both ice and ecto-guns. But then Undergrowth disappeared and reappeared behind Danny, grasping him in both hands. "I'm sorry for being so rough with Samantha Daniel, but if you join me then that will never happen again."

Danny closed his eyes and though for a moment before making up his mind. He let the cold feeling inside of him build until there was nowhere else to go but out. His white ghostly aura changed to a light blue as he slowly opened his eyes. "Let me go!" He shouted as he released all of his cold energy around him. That attack effectively froze both of Undergrowth's hands, and with his hands frozen, getting out would be easy. Danny used all his strength and broke free of Undergrowth's grasp. But in doing so he sent himself in a series of uncontrolled flips while headed for a giant tree. But before he could right himself, Danny hit something else.

Once his head and world stopped spinning Danny looked up to see who caught him. He gasped when he saw it was Valerie. But he also saw Undergrowth has already regenerated himself and one large hand, vine, whatever as coming straight at them. So thinking quickly he turned the board, Valerie and himself intangible. "Why did you catch me instead of letting me hit that tree?" He asked as the two circled back around.

"Because Danny, if you hit that tree then you would been unconscious and probably reopened those wounds Skulker gave you yesterday Fenton. After we beat this overgrown vegetable I'd like some questions answered."

"You know that I'm half-ghost? But how? And why confront me about it now? Also how to beat Undergrowth is simple. Freeze his roots then blast him till he is small enough to suck into the thermos."

"I'm still surprised how no one else put together the Danny Phantom is the same as Danny Fenton. You change hair color, eye color and clothing. Now how I found out is a bit more interesting. I'll spill after we beat this ghost." Danny stood up and nodded, his eyes turned an icy blue color as his left hand glowed the same shade.

The duo made a good strategy, first Danny would freeze Undergrowth completely and Valerie came in right behind him with several blasts from her various guns. Soon Undergrowth was roughly the same size as Danny or Valerie. Danny reached down to suck Undergrowth in, but to his horror the thermos was gone. Before he could say anything Valerie handed him the thermos. Smiling, Danny uncapped it and pointed it at Undergrowth. With a lot of screaming later and a lid on the thermos Valerie and Danny returned to the ground.

Sam was now leaning against a tree out of her crater. Dani and Tucker were going over her vital signs and seeing if she was hurt. Danny hopped off the board and faced Valerie. "I'm sorry about what happened before. The ghost dog incident wasn't my fault, and when I unmasked you I had to. If you had gone into the suit Valerie, you could have died. Sam and Tucker know that I almost did."

"It's ok Phantom. Just do me one favor please." Valerie asked nicely, as she walked closer to him.

"What is it?"

"Say goodnight." Was her response before she whipped out a container and sprayed something in Danny's face. He stumbled back trying to fight sleep. He only hung on for a minute before succumbing to the sleeping gas.
