P.S.: Danny's outfit has changed, description in this chapter.
Chapter 1: On the Run.
Danny was running.
Or, more accurately, flying.
It had been a month since his life had fallen to pieces. 'Stupid Guys in White' Danny thought darkly, blowing a piece of white hair out of his face. 'If it weren't for those clowns, I wouldn't be on the run.'
Danny was shaken out of his thoughts by the sound of a girl shrieking. Danny looked down, and saw a girl about his age being cornered by a half-dozen masked men, with a seventh walking towards her. The girl had blond hair with a silver hair clip, and bright blue eyes filled with fear. Her eyes suddenly glowed bright yellow, and a pillar of rock shot from the ground under her, putting her above the masked men. The half-dozen that had cornered her raised what looked like hand blasters, and shot the pillar, causing it to crumble. Danny's heightened sense of hearing picked up the conversation below.
"Now, now, Terra, don't want to loose control with those powers of yours, do we?" The lead masked man said in a subtle, monotone voice.
"No, get away from me!" The girl, who Danny figured was Terra, shot another pillar out of the ground, only this time under the man, who merely sidestepped to avoid it.
"You lack control, you need discipline, and only I can provide those, join me Terra, and I can teach you how to control those powers of yours." The man said, hands behind his back as though it were a business conversation.
Danny saw the fear in Terra's eyes, fear of losing control, fear of him. Danny made his move.

Terra was scared, Slade was offering to help her control her powers, but she knew he was the bad guy. Suddenly, she heard a shout.
"Hey, leave her alone." A voice said. The geomancer looked up, and saw the speaker. The speaker was clad in a black and white jump suit. His gloves and boots were white, the pants were black, and the shirt portion was mostly white on the front, a black emblem of a stylized D with a cut to look a P inside on his chest, with stripes of white running to the gloves, and the belt and white on the shirt seeming to merge. His mouth was covered by a similarly white mask. His eyes shone bright green, similar to Starfire's only the green was only his irises were green. His hair was white, the same white as on his suit. His hands glowed with bright green energy, like Starfire's star-bolts, only more like a fluid than Starfire's electrified energy blasts. The speaker then shot his hands towards Slade, beams of energy being emitted from his palms. The blast struck Slade head on, sending him flying back and leaving a crater in the sand upon landing. Her savior landed with a small cloud of dust.
"Are you alright?" He asked. Terra was speechless.
Slade got up, and spoke. "Well, if it isn't the famous Danny Phantom, the ghost hero of Amity Park, wanted for kidnapping, theft, and the murder of Daniel Fenton, but we both know that last one isn't true."
Terra looked at her savior, and saw genuine shock in his eyes, that quickly morphed into determination.
"Is this the part where you ask me to join you, well that didn't work for Vlad, and it certainly won't work for you." Danny Phantom said defiantly.
"So be it then, It looks like I'll have to destroy you both, and you have made such promising apprentices." Slade replied, drawing a BO-staff that had a slight green glow to it. Danny replied by charging his hands again, and throwing a volley of energy blasts at the madman. Slade just deflected them with his staff, before charging forward and landing a blow on his shoulder. Terra could see him wince in pain. Grabbing his wounded shoulder, Danny shot another blast at Slade, knocking back a few feet. That was when Terra decided to help. The ground beneath Slade gave way, sending him tumbling into an artificial sinkhole. Terra smirked, and the look in Danny's eyes told her that he was too.
Then the Sladebots attacked. Danny and Terra used their powers to easily disable them, and when the dust settled, six robots had become six piles of scrap.
"So, I take it you're Danny Phantom?" Terra asked her savior.
"Yeah, and I heard him say your name's Terra?" Danny replied.
"Yeah, thanks for saving me from Slade." She said.
"So, do you anywhere to go?" Danny asked her.
"No, I've been running ever since I left Titans Tower. I thought Beast Boy promised not to reveal my secret, and Robin told everyone." Terra replied.
"I've been running too, so not much help there." Danny said.
"I think there's a cave nearby." Terra said hopefully.
"It's starting to get dark, let's get moving." Danny said, noticing the rapidly retreating sunlight.
The two of them found a cave, and decided to hole up there for the night.
"So, Danny, why were you running?" Terra questioned.
"It all started a couple months ago..." He began.
Flashback
Danny was flying leisurely through the night sky above Amity Park. It had been almost a month since Freakshow got the Reality Gauntlet and revealed his identity to the world. Luckily, Danny had gotten the Gauntlet and wiped the memory of those days from everyone except Sam, Tucker, and Jazz. He knew his parents accepted him, but with the Guys in White becoming more competent Ghost Hunters, it was best for everyone that people didn't know that Phantom and Fenton were the same person.
Danny was broken out of his thoughts by the sound of weapons fire. He turned around...
And got hit full in the chest by an ecto-weapon's blue beam.
The Guys in White.
The white-suited Ghost Hunters fired a second blast, once again striking the halfa. With his concentration broken, he fell to the ground, landing with a crash as he lost consciousness and felt the familiar white rings change hi back to Danny Fenton.
When he woke up, Danny found himself strapped to an operating table, several GiW agents standing around him, one of whom was holding a glowing green scalpel.
"Don't bother using your powers, those restraints cancel them out." One of the agents said, as his partner lowered the scalpel.
The next few weeks could only be described as pure torture as they preformed painful experiment after painful experiment. Finally after a month, three of the hazmat suit wearing agents walked in, only they didn't have any of the scientific implements on them. Danny was confused, and was even more confused when one of them undid the restraints tying him down and negating his powers.
"What?" Danny asked weakly, his throat dry from lack of water.
"We're getting you out of here." One of the agents said, before removing his helmet to reveal his best friend. The other two did the same, revealing his other best friend and his sister.
"You don't think we'd wouldn't try to find you after we figured out they got you." Jazz said in her matter-of-fact tone. Sam then handed him his jumpsuit, and Danny put it on.
"Now, let's get out of here before anyone sets off the alarm." Sam said as they put on their helmets. The escape went smoothly, and the alarm didn't go off until they were already far away from the base.
"Sorry to say this Danny, but you can't stay in Amity Park." Sam told him.
"Why?" was Danny's reply.
"The Guys in White put out a bulletin saying that Danny Fenton was killed by Danny Phantom, so..."
"Now Danny Fenton can't be seen, and Danny Phantom is a criminal. Looks like I'll have to run, and figure out how to get the Guys in White off my back." Danny said.
"Just take this in case." Jazz told her brother, handing him a Fenton Thermos.
"Thanks." Danny replied. "I promise I'll clear my name , somehow." With that, Danny flew off into the night, turning invisible.
Flashback End
"Wow." was all Terra could say when Danny finished his story.
"So that's why I'm on the run, why are you?" Danny asked.
"I can't really control my powers, everywhere I go, disaster happens." She said, her head on her knees, looking away.
"Maybe I could teach you. I mean, when I first got my powers, they would go off at the worst times. My arm turning intangible at breakfast, turning invisible in front my parents, who only missed it because they were too focused on a piece of tech. Heck, my pants turned intangible twice when I tried to ask a girl out." Terra laughed at the last one.
"So, do you really think you can train me?" Terra asked.
"How hard can it be? Now I think we should both get some sleep, training starts tomorrow." Danny said as he closed his eyes and sat against the wall of the cave, a pair of white rings traveling across his body, his white hair turned black, his skin became slightly paler, and his jumpsuit was replaced with jeans and a T-shirt. Terra took a second looking over him, before going to sleep herself.
