I've decided it's high time i wrote a Danny Phantom story.
I love Danny Phantom. it's bee one of my favorite shows since it started coming on (and putting that into perspective is making me feel very old right now). I just like Butch Hartman's shows, you know i love Fairly Odd Parents too.
But anyway the fact that Danny Phantom ended when it did REALLY pissed me off. I mean, let's be totally honest here. Phantom Planet left A LOT of holes. What happened with Danny and Sams relationship? What was Danny's life like after everyone knew his secret? What the heck happened to Dark Danny (because let's be honest The Ultimate Enemy left that open too!). I don't know why Danny Phantom ended but i really wish i did. Maybe Butch Hartman got tired of it, maybe he ran out of ideas (although it's extremel unlikely), or maybe he had some disagreements with Nickelodeon like the creators of Hey Arnold did (which apparently is why the second Hey Arnold movie didn't get made).
I've always wanted to know how Danny Phantom would end but then i thought, why don't i end it. I finish every other show that i don't like the ending to. This answers all of the questions i just asked and then some.
DISCLAIMER: I DON'T OWN DANNY PHANTOM BUT IF I DID I WOULD TAKE CARE OF THIS GEM OF A SHOW A LOT BETTER THAN BUTCH HARTMAN DID!
Danny Phantom
No More Secrets
Chapter 1:
In His Honor
Danny Fenton sat in the back of his parents van. His best friend Tucker and his girlfriend Sam sat on both sides of him. His sister Jazz sat on the other side of Tucker. He looked out the window nervously. The front of city hall was filled with people and the crowd was constantly growing. There was a tall structure in the center that was covered by a huge tarp. He couldn't begin to guess what was under it. It seed like everyone in Amity Park plus some more were here.
"There's so many people," he said.
Sam held his hand and gave him a gentle smile. "You'll be fine."
"I estimate about 1,000," Tucker said.
Same kicked him. "You're not making him feel better."
Mr. Fenton parked the car and they got out.
Danny suddenly felt very self-conscious. He'd been feeling this was a lot lately. Ever since he stopped Vlad from destroying the earth and revealed his identity as Danny Phantom, he couldn't step out of his house without earning stares, or people coming up to him asking for his autograph or a picture, or some quote for a newspaper article. He'd gone from being the loser high school student, to the world's super hero in just two days and he wasn't sure how to handle it.
And now he was expected to speak at a press conference in front of all these people broadcast to the whole world. He was scared out of his wits and he had no idea what he was going to say.
Mrs. Fenton put her hand on his shoulder. "Don't worry Danny. You'll be fine."
"Just tell it like it is son," his father said. "Tell them how you kicked Vlad Plasmius' butt and blasted a hole in his chest and threw him into oblivion."
"Um dad, that didn't happen," Danny said.
"Well…just tell it like it is then."
Sam kissed his cheek. "For good luck."
He felt himself blushing. "Thanks."
The new mayor came up onto the podium and adjusted the microphone and it made that screeching sound that everyone hates. "Ahem, people of Amity Park, a few days ago our world was in turmoil. Life as we knew it was about to end. But it didn't. We're all here today. And we owe it all to a young hero. This young man saved not only Amity Park, but the entire world from being destroyed." The audience started cheering. "And that hero," the mayor continued. "Is Danny Fenton!"
The audience broke into louder cheers. The mayor looked at him waiting for him to come up to the stage.
Sam's hand was still in his and she gave it a squeeze. He took a deep breath and walked up the steps of the city hall to the podium. He got there and took the mayors place in front of the microphones with hundreds of people staring at him waiting for him to say something. "Wow, um, thanks for all of this," he began. "I-I didn't do it alone. I had help from my friends Tucker and Sam." The crowd applauded all of them.
"Danny Fenton," said one of the reporters in front of him. "How long have you been a ghost?"
"It's been about a year."
"How did you become Danny Phantom?" she asked.
"Well my parents are ghost hunters, and about a year ago they made a portal the ghost zone. It didn't work at first so I went inside and I accidently pressed a button. When I woke up, I was a ghost."
Several other reporters raised their hands wanting to ask him more questions. He pointed to someone. "You, with the glasses."
"Can you turn into a ghost right now?"
He transformed into a ghost and a bunch of excited ooh's and ahh's came from the audience.
"What are your powers?"
He went down a list of his powers. This was becoming easier. His heart wasn't beating as fast now. He especially calmed down when he saw Sam and Tucker giving him a thumbs up.
After a few more questions he stepped aside and the mayor took his place again. "Danny, the world owe's you so much gratitude. We present you the highest award for world protection."
A man in a suit came over and put a badge on his shirt and handed him a plaque.
"And as a thank you from Amity Park, we also present a statue in your honor. And there is one in the capital of every country in the world to the young man who saved us all."
The tarp was removed and there was a 40 foot tall gold statue of him in his Danny Phantom suit. More applause broke out from the audience.
Short little chapter but hopefully th next ones willbe longer. This is just the beginning of Danny's new life as the world's super hero.
