The Fentons were a happy family. Jack and Maddie Fenton had two children. Danny and Jazz. Jazz was 7 she had orange hair in pigtails, a cute pink shirt, and red skirt. Danny was 5 He had slightly messy jet black hair, a blue shirt with a red number 5 on it, and black shorts. Danny would grow up to become Danny Phantom when he turns 14 but Clockwork needed to change that.
Clockwork is the ghost that controls time itself. He has a grandfather clock inside of him and constantly changes form from young to adult to old.
Clockwork phased through the roof of the Fenton house. They had just bought it and had recently finished moving in.
Clockwork saw them all eating dinner at the dinner table in the kitchen. He floated down (invisibly) and overshadowed Maddie.
"Hey Jack how about we build a ghost portal in the basement?" Maddie suggested under Clockwork's influence.
"Didn't we already do that in college?" said Jack after taking a bite out of some fudge.
"Yes we did. But how about we make it bigger this time. Like big enough for a person to fit through." Maddie suggested still under Clockwork's influence.
"Hey thats a great idea. To the Basement!" shouted Jack as he ran down.
Clockwork left Maddie's body leaving her a bit dazed.
"Mommy are you ok?" asked Jazz.
"Ye-yeah just a bit woozy but nothing a good nights sleep won't fix." said Maddie.
"Now you two finish your dinner while I help your father." Maddie said.
Maddie then went down to the basement to join Jack.
"Excellent the portal should be complete in no less than a month." said Clockwork.
One Month Later
Clockwork returned to the Fentons to observe their progress on the portal. Jack and Maddie were about to plug it in.
"Finally after all this time of working all night non stop. We have finally completed the portal!" said Maddie.
"Yeah Maddie-cakes. Now lets test this baby!" said Jack.
Jack plugged the portal into a socket but nothing happened.
Jack looked glum
"Aww guess this was a bust." said Jack
"sigh I guess your right Jack. Come on lets spend some time with the kids." suggested Maddie.
Jack still looked glum
"How about I make you some fudge?" suggested Maddie
Jack immediately snapped out of his funk and shouted "Fudge yes! I love Fudge!"
Jack and Maddie went up to the kitchen to get some fudge.
Clockwork grinned. The Fentons hadn't failed to make the portal work. They just didn't turn it on.
"Silly family. But now it is time to create Danny Phantom 9 years early." said Clockwork.
Clockwork phased through the basement ceiling to find Danny playing with toy cars on the floor and Jazz reading a 4th grade reading level book on the couch.
Clockwork overshadowed Danny. "If Mom and Dad ask where I am tell them I'm in the basement." said Danny under Clockworks influence.
"Ok" was all Jazz said and she continued to read.
Danny went down to the basement.
Clockwork left his body and grabbed a white hazmat suit from somewhere in the basement. He replaced the Jack Fenton face logo on the suit with a black D logo.
Clockwork then threw the suit lightly at Danny. The suit fell on Danny's head.
"Hey cool suit." said Danny as he then put it on.
The suit was a big on Danny but he didn't care.
Clockwork then overshadowed Danny again. "How about I press the green button in the portal." Clockwork said in Danny's head.
Clockwork then left Danny's body and watched as Danny headed into the portal.
Jack and Maddie went into the living room to tell Danny and Jazz dinner was ready.
They saw Jazz was there but Danny wasn't.
"Jazz where's your brother?" asked Maddie
"In the basement." said Jazz.
"The Basement! I still have some dangerous ghost weaponry down there! He could get hurt!" shouted Maddie in fear.
Maddie ran towards the basement and Jack and Jazz followed.
Danny went into the portal and pushed the big green button labeled on.
The portal activated with Danny inside.
Maddie, Jack and Jazz arrived to see Danny being electrocuted in the portal.
"Nooooo!" shouted Maddie
Jazz looked horrified and Jack had an expression of worry and confusion on his face
Danny's hazmat suits colors became inverted, the suit became black, his gloves and boots became white, His eyes turned green and Danny's black hair turned snow white.
"Ahhhhhhh!" screamed Danny
The portal shut down and just as Danny came out Clockwork said "Time Out!"
Suddenly everything froze.
Clockwork grabbed Danny and phased him through the walls of the basement and out onto the street.
"The only thing you will remember Daniel is your name but eventually you will remember, and hopefully this change will prevent you from becoming who you will in the future." said Clockwork to Danny even though he was still frozen in time.
Clockwork placed him near to where a car would pass and the driver he intended to find him would see him.
Clockwork put a ring on Danny's finger. "This ring will prevent you from using your powers until you take it off. Why am I telling you this if you can't hear me anyways?" said Clockwork to himself
"Time In!" said Clockwork suddenly everything resumed after the pause as if nothing had happened.
But due to the ring blocking Danny's powers he transformed back into a human and fainted on the street.
Anne and James Possible were driving back to Middleton after they got a call that there was an emergency at Amity Park Hospital and they were needed.
James wasn't sure why he was needed because he was a rocket scientist but the person on the phone sounded so urgent that he got a baby sitter for his daughter Kim and he and his wife drove to Amity Park.
But the most bizarre thing happened. When they reached the Hospital they asked where the emergency was but the Hospital Secretary looked confused and said "There is no emergency. What are you talking about?"
"The phone call we received from this hospital about twenty minutes ago." said Anne.
"We never sent out any calls recently." said the Secretary.
So since they weren't needed they left and got back in the car.
"I can't believe that we came here for nothing." said James.
"I know. I just hope Kimmy is ok with her babysitter." said Anne.
"Yeah yo- wait stop the car!" shouted James as he saw a boy passed out on the street.
Anne slammed on the brake.
"What what is it?!" Anne asked.
James got out of the car to help the boy he saw on the street he picked up the unconscious boy and brought him into the car.
Anne and James looked very worried and unsure on what to say or do and the child looked like he had just survived being electrocuted.
After a few minutes of silence the child woke up.
"Are you ok?" asked Anne.
"What happened?" asked the boy.
"We found you on the street. Can you tell us how you got there?" asked James
"I-I can't remember." said the boy.
"What about your name can you tell us your name?" asked Anne
"...Danny." said Danny
"What about your last name?" asked James
"Last name?" Danny clearly did not understand the question.
"Do you know where your parents are?" asked Anne
"I-I... Still can't remember." said Danny
"Well what can you still remember?" said James
"Just my name." said Danny
Anne and James gave each other a few worried glances.
"Would you like to come and live with us?" asked Anne
"I... don't know...yes I guess." said Danny.
"Alright well hopefully your memories will return soon." said James.
The Possibles took Danny back to Middleton with them and he lived with them.
After Danny had disappeared in the Ghost Portal all Maddie and Jack could assume was that Danny was dead.
They dismantled the portal and vowed never to speak of that incident again.
Jazz cried for days mourning Danny's death and all Maddie and Jack could do was comfort her and tell her everything was ok even though it wasn't.
Not a single day went by where the Fentons didn't think about Danny.
Jack and Maddie still pursued becoming Ghost hunters but were not as enthusiastic about it as they would have been if it wasn't for Danny's accident.
Jazz studied psychology to try to help herself and her parents move on but it was still hard to do so.
"Lets hope this timeline will save the future." said Clockwork
"It better Clockwork." said an Observant
(The Observants are giant eye ghosts that only observe)
"If this effects the timeline to much then the world could be at stake." said another Observant.
"Relax I know what I am doing." said Clockwork
