Team Phantom had finally a day off. No school. No ghosts. No obligations.

But instead of having a fun and movie day at the Manson residence, they were meditating in the park. Though Tucker was against it he still followed his best friends. Sam wanted her friends to come closer to their own self, so she brought up this idea. She had expected Danny to be against it just like Tucker but was surprised when he welcomed the idea.

His friends had noticed that lately Danny had been pretty stressed. His daily routine was already stressful but lately in addition to school, ghost hunting and Sam's social work he had been plagued with horrible nightmares, that wiped away the few hours of sleep he got anyway.

The three of them sat under a tree. Sam was fidgety because of the cold autumn wind. Tucker was absolute unnerved and shifted from one side to another. Danny on the other hand was sitting there cross legged in complete trance. His eyes were dimmed and empty, Sam noticed her crush acting different and tried to wake him but to no avail. Her heart sank as she noticed that he wasn't breathing.

„Tucker somethings wrong with Danny! He isn't breathing!", she yelled in pure horror.

Tucker jumped up and ran to his friend placing a hand before his mouth before he remembered something.

"Sam. Danny doesn't need oxygen anymore since he became a half ghost, or did you forget that?", he whispered so that no one could hear him.

"I know that Tucker but he always breathed despite not needing it and now he is not. Fuck even his skin is cold as ice.", she hissed back.

That actually caught her friends attention and he touched Danny's arm only to recoil. He had felt that cold before and horror crept into his mind.

"No... nonononono that can't be.", he tried to make it reasonable in his mind.

"WHAT?", Sam hissed in barely suppressed anger.

"This isn't some usual cold... this is the same cold feeling of a dead man.", Tucker whispered with horror filled eyes.

He had once seen a corpse and had touched it back when he visited his uncle who worked at a morgue. Sam's eyes grew big like dinner plates and her eyes flew in between her two friends. She tried to understand what her dark skinned friend had just told her but it was just not possible.

Danny was cold like a dead man. But that couldn't be. He couldn't die. Not him. Not her Danny.

"No that can't be.", she whispered as she laid him down into her lap and stared down into his eyes.

There was nothing. No glinting, no sparks, nothing. They were empty and his pupils were dilated so far that there nearly no blue color left. Tears began to well up in her eyes and fell without a care in the world down her cheeks.

Suddenly the supposed corpse jolted upwards into a sitting position and inhaled sharply. His dull eyes cleared and regained their usual blue shine.

"Damn not again.", he sighed and jumped up.

"Danny?", Sam asked unsure while Tucker stood there like frozen.

But Danny ignored her and looked into the distance while touching his chest as if he was missing something.

'Why can't it be just over?', he thought tired.

"Danny?", Sam asked a bit louder bit still unsure.

"Yeah?", he asked without turning around.

"Are you alright?", she tried to get her confidence back.

"Why do you ask? I just slept a bit.", he stated bored.

"You slept? Dude you were dead.", Tucker stated in disbelieve.

"I don't know what you are talking about. I am dead. I have been for 3 years now. What's suddenly so surprising about it?", he asked bored still not bothering to turn around.

Sam felt hurt from her boyfriends word. It was like he didn't care about them or his life at all. She stood up and walked up to him.

"This was different Danny. You were really dead.", she tried to reason and laid a hand on his shoulder.

"Leave me alone Sam. It was nothing. I was just tired.", he shrugged her hand off a bit to violent and walked away.

Sam looked at his retreating form with a teary and hurt look while Tucker stared at him in sheer disbelieve.

'Danny how could you do this to Sam?', he thought as he comforted her.

–

Danny in the meantime made his way out of the park and into an alley. There he just wanted to transform into his ghostly alter ego but couldn't. It was like his powers didn't want to come out. Once again he tried to bring his power out but it still refused.

With a heavy sight he left his power where it was and simply jumped up to the roof in one leap and continued his journey to his house over the rooftops. Once he reached the neighbor roof he jumped onto the fire escape before his window. He entered his room and fell on his bed with a tired sigh.

He knew that what he did to Sam earlier was wrong but he just didn't care at the moment. He was tired and his new power made it worse. In addition to that he also gained new enemies. Enemies that no one but him could see.

'I've got to talk to them. I can no longer do this.', he thought tired and jumped out of his bed.

On his way down to the lab unfortunately he ran into his bis sister. She looked at him sternly.

"Danny what were you thinking?", she snapped at him.

"Sam and Tucker called you?", he asked bored and she nodded.

"Listen Jazz I have important business to attend to. Can this wait till later?", he groaned and wanted to walk past her.

Jazz immediately grabbed his arm and tried to stop him.

"Danny we have to talk about this.", her angry look vanished and she looked concerned at her tired brother.

"No we don't. This is something between the three of us not you. If they have a problem then they should come to me not send you. If they don't have the guts to do that then I have no time for them.", he snarled as a sudden surge of anger flared through him.

His sister was taken back by the evil glint in his eyes and stepped back. This was uncharacteristic for him. He was always nice and timid but now he was tired but angry and ready to pounce on everyone around him.

"But she is your girlfriend.", Jazz tried a different approach.

"She's not my girlfriend anymore. We have broken over a year ago. She just thinks she has a chance with me again.", he snarled with venom.

Jazz took another step back and looked shocked at the new spike of anger from her brother and this new development.

'Sam never told me that.', she thought worried.

"Now if you excuse me I have some business to take care of before it's too late.", and with that he left his sister standing and went to the lab.

Just as he opened the portal to the ghost zone a ghost emerged. It was non other but Skulker. He looked at his prey with a crazy grin.

"Skulker we have to talk. It's about the competition.", Danny said before the hunter ghost could make a move.

The ghost's expression turned from crazy to serious.

"What's wrong boy?", he asked.

"Not here. Let's talk about this with everyone.", Danny pointed out and boarded a hover board his parents had invented.

Together the two enemies made their way into the ghost zone and towards the Thorn-Port. While they flew Skulker called everyone together to meet them there. Half an hour later they arrived. There they were awaited by every ghost in the ghost zone.

"What's this about babypop?", Ember asked as she slung her arm around her man.

Danny just sighed and slipped out of her grip. She pouted a bit about his cold behavior.

"Listen everyone.", he called and everyone fell silent.

"I have called you here because we have to stop the competition.", he continued and many negative calls came from the crowd.

"What are you talking about babe?", Ember hissed a bit pissed.

"SILENCE!", Danny bellowed and everyone fell silent.

"Let me explain why we have to stop the competition.", he took a deep breath.

"I'm losing my powers.", he breathed out with a frown.

"What do you mean boy?", Nocturne asked curious.

"I mean that I have gained a new power lately which is blocking my ghost powers. Today despite my efforts I was not able to activate any of my ghost powers.", the teen explained.

"What kind of power would that be?", Spectra asked as she eyed the boy.

"I have no idea but because of it I leave my body behind and have to fight monsters that are invisible to everyone else.", he sighed and hung his head.

Silence befell the crowd as they absorbed this information. A few of the ghosts gulped because they knew what that meant and what these monsters were.

"Hollows.", Skulker whispered with fear.

"You know about them?", Danny turned to the hunter ghost.

"They are monsters. Compared to them we are harmless puppies.", he explained with a shudder.

"Oh great. New and stronger enemies that want to kill me and everyone else.", Danny sighed again and leaned against a wall.

"You should stay away from them boy. They are to dangerous. If they get to you they suck your soul out and you will become one of them.", Nocturne explained with a grim expression.

"It's not like I want to meet them but they seek me out. At least I have figured out how to beat them.", Danny laughed bitter.

"You found their weakness?", Nocturne picked up on that.

"Yeah when I destroy their masks with my sword they die.", the teen shrugged with a small smile.

"You have a sword?", Spectra asked a bit disbelieving.

"Yeah. Whenever I leave my body I have a silver katana with a black handle and neon green aspects. Plus I wear this black robe. A hakama I think it's called.", Danny smiled.

Everyone stared at him in sheer disbelieve. Here was this boy. Their friend and partner in the competition on who is the strongest ghost. Telling them that he's becoming something more than a ghost. He's casually telling them that he is becoming a Shinigami. A death god.

"Oh and I can transform my sword into a big ass chainsaw sword.", Danny smiled a bit proud.

"Do you even have the slightest idea what you are becoming boy?", Nocturne was the first to find his voice again.

"I have no clue but I know that my body can't withstand this pressure much longer.", the teen shrugged tired.

"What do you mean babe?", Ember asked a bit nervous.

"I mean that my body can't handle the stress of being caught between two worlds. Being alive and dead at the same time is ripping my body apart. I don't even know if I will become a ghost after that.", Danny explained to his girlfriend still hoping for the best.

"So that's what you meant when you told me back then that we can't be together forever.", she hung her head and leaned against him.

"I'm sorry babe. At least you have a little reminder of me.", he whispered and his hand caressed her belly.

Nocturne cleared his throat and Danny's attention turned to the dream ghost.

"Sorry Nocturne it won't happen again.", he smiled sheepish.

"Ok lets continue. You are becoming a Shinigami, Danny. A death god.", he explained serious.

"So I won't become a ghost after all?", Danny hung his head a bit losing the hope to be with his girl.

"I'm sorry boy but you will become something more than us. Your purpose will be to save the souls of dead people that have not been corrupted yet and kill hollows.", the dream ghost explained.

"So I could save you guys if I wanted to?", Danny asked hopeful but Nocturne shook his head.

"No you can only save the souls of those who are still uncorrupted. No ghosts only souls. These souls are called Plus while the Hollows are Negative's or also Menos.", Spectra explained without her usual peppy tone.

"So can I visit you guys at least?", Danny was loosing to much at once.

Nobody said a word and the teen knew what that meant. First his ghost powers that had a significant meaning in his life and now his friends. And all that just because he was changing into a death god. Something he never wanted.

"Oh this sucks. Why can't I just become a ghost. No I have to become something that will make me unable to meet my friends and have to fight dumb monsters.", he ran a hand through his hair.

"Once you become a full Shinigami. and get enough attention, another Shinigami will find you and take you to the Soul Society. The home of the Shinigami.", Skulker explained.

"And what then?", Danny asked unnerved.

"No idea. It's all we know.", the hunter shrugged.

Before Skulker could say more a scanner on his arm beeped. He read the result of Danny's body scan and inhaled sharply.

"What's wrong Skulker?", Sidney asked worried.

"I just got the results from Danny's body scan.", he groaned and rubbed his chin.

"And?", Sidney pressed.

"With readings like that it's a wonder that he isn't already dead. I'm sorry to say this but I don't think you will make it through the night boy.", the hunter ghost explained.

"Oh this is just gre... WAIT!", Danny suddenly bellowed.

Everyone stared at him as if he had grown a second head.

"What?", Ember asked as she rubbed her ears.

"What about Vlad and Danielle? Will they also become Shinigami?", he asked unnerved.

"I'm not sure about Vlad but young Danielle will become one for sure. She is your descendant after all. But Vlad's exposure to the ectoplasm during his recreation wasn't as strong as your so he will most likely become just a full ghost or a hollow at most.", Nocturne shrugged.

"Oh great. How will I explain that to her?", Danny groaned.

"Leave that to me babypop. I will tell her everything. I don't think you have enough time to tell her that anyway.". Ember reasoned.

"Thanks babe and thanks to you all for your friendship and support. I have to go now and make the best out of the remaining time I still have. Which isn't much if Skulker's scanners speak true.", the teen groaned and boarded his hover board again.

Before he shot off towards the Fenton portal he gave his girlfriend a passionate kiss and flew home at top speed.

At the city border of Amity Park a shadowy figure with a white/green striped hat looked down on the darkening city.

"I guess it's time.", the figure spoke and vanished with a swishing sound.
