A/N: hello, I have actually started on this theme. I have actually been on a little time loop phase and I could not get this one out of my head; how did it all start? Well, this is my thought on how it did. And, really, come on, you can see this happening with how Danny is, right?
Phantom Loops
Chapter one
Prologue
Oops?
1.1
Danny's POV
Mondays, the bane of all existence, it should be outlawed. It not only makes us tired as hell, but we make pretty stupid decisions as well. For example, my portal accident was on a Monday, the catalyst for the nasty burger explosion and the creation of Dan, MONDAY! And now THIS! I have no idea why I even did this!
It all started as a routine training session at clockworks tower for me. The oh, so omniscient master of time should have seen this coming. I was holding a time medallion that had been given to me for my birthday by aforementioned nincompoop, and was fiddling with the damn thing while listening to one of his important lectures on the dangers of time travel.
I had almost stopped paying attention at this point and had realized that a ridge had appeared on the side of the medallion. I was trying to pry it open with my fingernail when clockwork spoke up, "No, Daniel. Don't do that."
I didn't hear him; I was too focused, for a change.
"Danny, don't do that."
Ooh, the crack is widening, I wonder what is inside? (See, stupid. Very stupid.)
"NO, DANNY! STOP!"
Eh? What is he... *click* *pop*
"NOOOOOOOOOO-" oops.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
The front of the medallion had popped off with a click… and all hell broke loose. Time shattered and reformed. Yggdrasil, the mighty multiversal computer tree crashed. And I, in the epicenter of the calamity caused by my utter stupidity, looped.
Hi, I'm Danny, welcome to the infinite loops that I am stuck in for the rest of the eternities. Well, since I can never fix this, ever,… welcome to hell.
1.2
Danny groaned, loudly. "This is the fifth freaking time I have restarted my life. If I don't do something different soon, I don't know what I'm going to do."
It was the second Tuesday after the portal accident this time when he 'awoke' and so, was a school day.
Danny ended up deciding to go to school in a dark grey shirt and black leather biker's jacket. He even had a cool pair of sunglasses to wear. (Don't ask where he got them, just don't.)
And, damn, did he pull off the bad boy vibe very well.
For the next week, he acquired everything he needed to pull off his new "thing." He did it good, he liked it, and he wasn't about to stop anytime soon. (Maby the next time he restarts his life?)
Danny was currently slouching in Mr. Lancer's office. Lancer did not look amused. Danny had pulled a very dangerous prank on all of the bully jocks. (With not only Sam's help, but the help of every so-called "geek" and "nerd" in the school.) We're not going into details, but it involved pink hair dye, pink feathers, lots of glue, and glitter, lots and lots of glitter.
Lancer finally sighed in annoyance, "Even though it is amusing, I disapprove of this kind of harmful pranks."
Danny was, however, going into details. He chuckled, "Dying the hair of every one of the jocks in the school pink and covering them in glue, only to spray them in fluffy pink feathers and an unholy amount of glitter is NOT harmful." Danny interrupted lancer as he opened his mouth to object, "What IS in fact harmful, is what plan 'b' was," taking a breath he continued, "THAT just so happened to be releasing a large box of crazy, and rabid, squirrels into the boys locker room with everyone other than said jock targets outside, listening in." Danny smirked darkly.
Lancer sighed and looked at the (very) deranged youth in front of him. He really didn't know what happened, one day the boy was good, stayed out of trouble, and was generally quiet and kind. The very next day, he was, THIS, in front of him. Mean, loud, delinquent and, more often than not (especially towards jocks), downright cruel. Lancer didn't know what happened. He really didn't want to know anyway.
The older male sighed again and looked at the halfa in front of him. Shaking his head Lancer gave out his punishment, "One week suspension and I am having a talk with your parents."
Danny just shrugged and smirked. (Again. He is REALLY getting into this.)
Lancer released Danny to go home and turned to make the call to said delinquents parents to organize the meeting.

Danny grinned as he woke up. It was the middle of the night and he was exited, he just figured out a new trick and he wanted to see if it worked.
Danny concentrated. A cold, green mist surrounded his hand, a pencil appeared. Danny grinned and whooped in joy. "I DID IT! I FINALLY DID IT!" he's happy enough to shout. Quieter, he said, "Finally I can keep things between loops."
Jazz walked in, looking exhausted, "What's going on, Danny? I heard you shout."
"Nothing, spazz. I'm fine. Go back to bed" Danny snarked at her.
Jazz left with a tired grumble of "I'm not a spazz."
Danny just grinned again and looked at the pencil in his hand. He FINALLY figured out the subspace pocket that the mysterious note that appeared a few loops back told him about.
Danny is still trying to figure out who this "John" is and why he told him about subspace pockets. Better yet, how did he know about the loops at all?
1.4
"What, the hell?"
He was a pony.
A friggen PONY!
Danny was indeed a pony. A dark blue, almost black, pony with his logo in white on his rump.
He even had wings.
What,
The,
HELL?
Danny did the most logical thing he could think of at the moment. He fainted.
1.5
Danny frowned as he woke up. Looking through his loop memories he realized that this loop was different, very different. Sitting up, he looked around. Yep, different. It looked like he was in a compartment in a train, an old style train compartment. Looking down at the robes he was wearing, he grinned. He was going to Hogwarts!
He needed goals for this loop.
Goal list:
1) Befriend Weasley twins.
2) Befriend Harry Potter.
3) Kill Mrs. Norris and pin the blame on Malfoy (somehow).
4) Steal philosophers stone (repeatedly across loops, if able).
5) Steal Harry's invisibility cloak.
6) Prank Snape. (repeatedly)
7) And lastly, lock the manipulating, twinkly eyed bastard known as Dumbledore in a broom closet with an angry and rabid goat.
Danny was proud of his mental list. He already accomplished numbers one and two and even number six. Repeatedly. Danny laughed, hard, as number three came to fruition as Malfoy was escorted away from an enraged Filch being held back by a confused Hagrid.
Danny woke up the next loop and grinned. That was fun. Especially when Danny obliterated moldyshorts whole army with an ice infused ghostly wail. Danny's smile fell, however, when he looked down. SHE screamed bloody murder.
She hates variant loops. It must be because of the (rather mean) prank he pulled on Professor McGonagall that involved charming her clothes into a clown outfit that only she can't see. (it even shrank when she transformed)
1.6
Danny stared at Sam who was nervous. The same Sam who has been his friend since childhood. She is also his most favorite person in the world because of one fact. She inadvertently admitted that she was looping.
For about a minute, Danny stared. Before he grinned wide enough that his face nearly split. He whooped. And hollered. And finally, scooped Sam up and spun around before pulling her to his chest and kissed the ever-living daylights out of her. When he pulled back, he whispered, "Finally, I'm not alone anymore. I'm not alone."
And he kept whispering the same last three words over and over again. Sam was worried, mostly because it was obvious that he was having the same problem as her, but wouldn't explain anything. Next thing she knew, Danny had turned intangible and whispered in her ear, "Sorry Sam, but this is the fastest way to explain." Before he overshadowed her.
As he phased out of her, he left behind an overview of the situation. Loops, the fact that time has broken, subspace pockets, variant loops, hub loops, and even crossover loops. It was all explained.
She came to an hour later as the information settled and her mind relaxed. Most of her questions were answered, except for one. "What now?"
Danny grinned. "Two words. Vacation. Loop. To celebrate the second looper I have ever met in my 2,974,862 loops. Give or take a bunch or two."
Sam grinned and laughed. Danny smiled. This was gonna be fun.
A/N: well, here it is. Have any ideas for future loops, want to see a specific crossover loop or prank, review or PM me. I will even take suggestions for the circumstances for others to start looping. Here is the overview for this first set.
1.1:
*Danny is an idiot. And sleepy. With a time medallion. Thus, the great calamity.
*in other words, the loops have begun. Admins, when they find out, will be pissed at him. (Feel free to use this in any of your loops stories, just… don't bash Danny to hard. He hates Mondays for a reason. This is a prime example.)
1.2:
*He is bored and decided to try something new.
*besides, badass Danny is awesome.
1.3
*enter the subspace pocket. It's a lot like requip, traditional subspace pocket and a hammerspace all rolled into one.
1.4
*Danny never watched MLP before. Besides, his reaction to waking up a pony is funny.
1.5
*First Harry Potter crossover.
*he became good enough friends with Harry and stuck by him through the whole series that Harry's first loop was a couple after this one as the admins set it up.
1.6
*Sam's first loop. YAY!
