A/N: While I don't do a lot of Danny Phantom fics, I couldn't help but be inspired to write this story. Blame it on watching Fairly Odd Parents' Fairly Odd Baby one too many times. Anyway, enjoy!
A Hero Is Born
I.
All was quiet in the little town. Peaceful and calm. However, that peaceful and calm quiet was quickly shattered as a minivan tore through the streets like it was being driven by a madman!
The madman in question was a large burly man dressed in an orange jumpsuit with a long black mullet. In the passenger seat beside him was a young two year old girl who was clinging to her chair for dear life, a cross between annoyance and terror etched on her face. In the backseat was a woman who looked almost like the girl. One look at her told that she wasn't breathing heavily due to panic from her husband's driving.
"How you doing, Maddie?" the man asked his wife as he carelessly took his eyes off the road to look in back.
"Great, Jack" Maddie grunted through pain. "I just hope that you can find the way to the hospital in time".
"Not to worry, Sweetcakes" Jack said as he turned to the dashboard that seemed to have been altered to have a built-in computer "The old Fenton navi system hasn't failed yet. Man, I can't wait until we finish the modifications on this van!"
"Can we focus on the baby first, Jack?" Maddie asked as she felt another contraction.
"Can, you believe it Jazzie?" Jack said to the young girl beside him "You're going to be a big sister!"
"And I intend to look after my little brother or sister" the girl said in a dialect that surpassed her years "After all…"
At that moment, Jack swerved to the right, nearly hitting the car of a ritzy-looking couple.
"Sorry!" Jack called back as he kept going. However, that wasn't enough to stop the couple from getting out of their car and yell angrily at him.
"Someone has too" Jazz muttered to herself as she rolled her eyes in annoyance.
II.
Surprisingly, Jack made it to the hospital in record time. Maddie was then rushed to the emergency room, with Jack and Jazz right behind.
"Keep breathing Mrs. Fenton" the nurse said "We're almost there".
"You're doing great, Maddie!" Jack coached as he held Maddie's hand, only to let go when she nearly crushed his own.
With one final scream, a new life was born.
Five minutes later, the three Fentons were in a hospital room with the newest addition to their family: a bright blue eyed, chubby checked, bouncing baby boy with dark black hair on his head.
"Isn't he adorable, Jack?" Maddie said with awe as she held her newborn son "What should we name him?"
"How about we name him after my old college buddy?" Jack asked eagerly.
"Uh, let's try to think of something else first" Maddie said nervously, not really wanting her son to be named Vlad Fenton.
As Jazz looked at her baby brother, she couldn't help but speak up.
"I like Danny".
"Danny?" Jack asked as he scratched his head "I don't know. That sounds a little dumb".
"Well, I like it" Maddie said with conviction "Danny Fenton. Has a nice ring to it".
"Well, I guess the majority wins" Jack said with a shrug before picking up his newly christened son "Little Man, something tells me that you're going to do great things in the world".
Unbeknownst to the happy family, someone else was watching from a mysterious portal. A strange figure with a long staff in his hand.
"Indeed, he will" the figure said as it morphed into the form of an old man "Indeed, he will".
The Beginning
A/N: Just to let everyone know, yes, that ritzy couple that Jack almost hit was Sam's parents. Even before Danny and Sam were born, Jack got on their bad side.
