NightShade
I do not own Danny Phantom or Teen Titans.
I don't really have a great track record at keeping up with stories I write, but I'm going to try anyways.
ENJOY!
Prelude
Daniel James Fenton was, on the outside, a rather unremarkable young man. He goes to school and squeaks by with a C average, hangs out with his two best friends every day, and plays video games until midnight. Many of his teachers call him a slacker who needs to buckle down and apply himself more, his classmates call him a looser and outcast, but his friends call him something much more special. Just four months ago Danny, as he likes to be known, was in a lab accident that made him something he never believed in. Something that his laughing stock parents call a ghost.
His mother, Maddie Fenton, is a no-nonsense PhD. In the field that she calls EctoSciences. His father, Jack Fenton, is a loveable oaf with his Masters in Theoretical Physics. Together the two built a large-scale device that was supposed to open a portal into another dimension where the dead were said to inhabit. Unfortunately, the device didn't work. Danny showed his two friends the device and went inside of it on a dare and stumbled over a coil. His hand slammed into the on switch, built on the inside because of his father's idiotic design flaw, and turned the portal on. One hundred milliamps are enough to stop your heart, Danny had about 15 amps course through him.
His two best friends, Samantha Manson and Tucker Foley, screamed when they saw Danny erupt into a green portal. Sam had tears running down her face while Tuck fell to his knees with his mouth wide open. They just lost their best friend in the blink of an eye, or so they thought. When he emerged from the green portal with white hair and glowing green eyes, clad in a black and white hazmat suit, they were dumbfounded. He collapsed to the floor and reverted back to his original teenage form.
Daniel James Fenton is a remarkable young man who, after just four months, began his career as a hero fighting ghosts that escape from the portal created by his parents. Unfortunately for him, they have the whole thing caught on security camera…
End of Prelude
Okay, nothing wrong with a little world building. I figure a younger and non-overpowered Danny joining the Titans would be much more interesting. I know I don't enjoy reading a Danny that is super strong with tons of gadgets and cool weaponry. No scythes, swords, and anything else like that. Just plain vanilla Danny joining the DC universe. Which brings me to my last point, this is mostly Danny and the Titans but we will see bigger DC names crop up from time to time.
