Nightmares

Chapter 1: The Attack

The streets of Amity Park were dead despite it being a beautiful summer day. Why? Because Danny Phantom was fighting a ghost and all the parents had pulled their kids into the house and people ran into the nearest buildings for two reason. One was the ghosts, half the time, can't control where their attacks lands. The other was when there was a ghost attack, the Fentons would be there and if Jack Fenton was driving, no road was safe.

The Fenton Family Ghost Assault Vehicle raced down the street with Jack Fenton behind the wheel to where Danny Phantom was fighting a large black ghost with a white face. Valerie, Sam, Tucker, and Jazz were already at the scene

"YOU WILL PAY FOR STOPING ME LAST TIME, DANNY PHANTOM!" the ghost said as Jack and Maddie pulled out

"Why must you ghosts ALWAYS say that?" Danny Phantom asked

Suddenly, Danny was hit with a red beam

"DANNY!" Samantha, Jazz, and Tucker exclaimed when the ghost was hit

The ghost laughed.

"Good luck getting that 'good rest' NOW Danny Phantom. I SHALL return!" the ghost said

Everyone ran over to where Danny had fallen. He was still in ghost mode, but was looking as if he was having a nightmare

"What happened?" Tucker asked Jazz who was checking him

"Danny. Wake up" Jazz whispered

"No" Danny whispered "Don't give up on me"

"Tucker. Background check" Sam demanded as she tried to shake the ghost boy awake with no avail.

"Don't do it. No. Please.." Danny whispered obviously having a change in nightmare.

"Okay" Tucker said looking at his P.D.A. "Nocturne has him trapped in his nightmares"

"So how do we get him out?" Jazz asked

"Well, if it was anyone else, we could just have him go into the dreams and scare them awake like he did last time." Tucker said. "But….can ANY of us overshadow a ghost?"

Jack and Maddie looked at each other wondering how far into this ghost hunting business the kids really were in. And where the heck was Danny FENTON.

"What about his cousin?" Sam asked

"You know where to find her?" Tucker asked

"Mom. Dad…" Danny whimpered now hyperventilating as he tossed and turned. "I'm still me."

"The only other person I can think of is Plasmius. And knowing him he'd ask for a bit of payment that Danny's NOT going to want to pay" Jazz said "Does he have ANY ghostly allies that could help?"

"Let's see…Frostbite, Clockwork, Cujo, and Wulf are the friendliest. Maybe we can find Wulf, get him to take us to Frostbite, use the Infi-Map to find Dani, and then bring her here to help Danny"

"I have a better idea" Valerie said. "I think I still have Danielle's information in my suit. I'll go find her."

"But will she listen to you?" Tucker asked

"I think she will." Valerie said

"In the meantime, let's take him to FentonWorks" Jack said

"We'll put him in Danny's room" Jazz added giving her parents a look

"No…NO!" Danny shouted as he tossed and turned frantically. "I PROMISED THEM! NO! DON'T!"

"I think we know what THAT one was about" Jazz figured

Two hours later,

Valerie, on her jet sled, was looking at her wrist computer honing in on the dot on the grid. She landed and found a familiar looking girl skipping rocks

"DANIELLE!" Valerie called as she descended

The black haired/blue-eyed 12 year old turned and gasped at the sight of the red huntress

"Valerie? What's up?" Dani asked

"It's Danny" Valerie told the ghost girl

That was ALL Dani needed to hear. A white ring formed around her waste and split into two. The two rings traveled vertically in opposite directions transforming her into Dani Phantom

"Where is he?" she practically demanded

"Fenton Works" Valerie said. "He should be in Danny's room if Jazz managed to convince her parents to allow it"

In a gust of wind, Danielle was flying 112 miles an hour

"MAN That girl can fly!" Valerie gasped

40 minutes later,

Sam was sitting by Danny's bed gripping his gloved hand as he tossed and turned with each nightmare. It seemed to go in a cycle with the same nightmares. By the tears running down his face, reliving each nightmare was pure torture. Jazz was trying to keep all the weapons out of the room despite the fact that her parents wanted to use the opportunity to run some tests. Tucker was doing some research on Nocturne while using communication system he and Danny had set up with the ghostly allies.

"Okay. Thanks Clockwork" Tucker said into the phone before hanging up. "Okay. Clockwork said that Nocturne trapped Danny in his top 4 nightmares. The best way to break the spell is basically go into the nightmares and tell him in each one that it is not real by basically doing what he did the LAST time Nocturne attacked"

"The ghost attacked before?" Jack asked

"You slept through it" Sam told him before turning to Tucker. "Did Clockwork hint at how this ends?"

"You know Clockwork" Tucker told her "Unless the situation ends with that THING that's under lock and key in his lair comes into existence, his lips are shut"

"DANNY!" a familiar voice came

Just then, a 12 year old ghost girl who looked as if she was Danny Phantom's sister flew in. She saw Danny in the middle of the last nightmare which was the worst and flew over to his side

"Danny! Wake up! It's me!" she said shaking him

"NO! PLEASE!" Danny shouted "MOM! DAD! JAZZ! SAM! TUCKER!... LANCER!"

"He's worried about the teacher?" Maddie asked

"He's trapped in his nightmares" Sam said to the ghost girl as Valerie came in on her jet sled looking a bit wind blown.

"Dani" Tucker said. "Think you can overshadow him with a group now that you're stabilized?"

"Tucker!" Sam and Jazz exclaimed

"Clockwork said it was for the best if all of us go" Tucker defended motioning toward the Fentons with a look that showed he agreed with the teen girls

"I agree with this Clockwork" Maddie said

"Beesides." Jack added. "This would be the perfect opportunity to know how this ghost's mind works"

"I…I think so. Has Danny done it?" Dani asked Tucker

"Yeah" Sam confirmed.

"Then probably so" Dani stated

"How come I haven't met you?" Jazz asked

"Long story" Dani said before turning to Valerie. "Since I think I may know what Danny's nightmares are, could you stay out here and protect my cousin?"

"Of course" Valerie said having a soft spot for the ghost girl

Dani took Tucker and Sam's hands. Sam hung onto Maddie who gripped Jack's hand while Jazz and Tucker held hands. Dani then focused her intangibility and then overshadowed Danny
