Heyo! This is a new story, it's co-written by the amazing DarkShade5221, so please, GIVE THEM CREDIT! Anyway, the moment you've all been waiting for, UNCLE VLAD!

Danny's POV

Sleeping. I really loved to sleep. Well, maybe it's because I've been fighting ghost 24/7, chores, avoiding my parents' dangerous weapons that would probably target me, and school. All I could do is sleep all day.

"Danny!" Sam banged on my window. Uhhh... Nevermind.

"What?" I growled and glared at her.

"You're gonna be late to school!" Sam exclaimed.

"6:54? God, Sam! Next time get me up sooner!" I yelled sarcastically. Sam rolled her eyes at me then met me at the door. I flew Sam to school with me, then we rushed into home room. Being in the 11th grade is exhausting. Having a girlfriend, going to classes, doing homework, keeping track of your homework. It's so demanding! And the fact being the Ghost Hero of the town!

"Mr. Fenton, Ms. Manson," Mr. Lancer looked at his watch. "You're 5 minutes late."

"Sorry Mr. Lancer!" Sam and I said in unison as we rushed to our seats.

"Look at the new couple. Now you're late together because you're so cool. Isn't that right Fenturd?" Dash sneered at me. I just simply rolled my eyes and ignored him, which is my new favorite hobby.

"So, today's lesson will be about astrophysi-" Mr. Lancer was cut off.

"GHOST!" My parents screamed. What were they doing here anyway? Oh yeah! They're suppose to teach the student on how to defend themselve from evil ghost! Oh joy!

I face-palmed myself, knowing that this was going to be a long day. My ghost sense went off and I turned around to see Skulker firing his lasers at the class. A bunch of people were screaming bloody murder and some people got shot. There was a bunch of blood on the floor and some kids laid in it paralyzed.

"Everybody evacuate!" Mr. Lancer screamed. All of the students- including Mr Lancer- evacuated the building, except for my parents, me, Sam, and Tucker.

"What do you want Skulker?" I asked angrily.

"I thought instead of getting your pelt, I'd go for the murder route instead..." Skulker smirked and glanced at the pools of blood on the ground.

"Danny! Do something!" Sam yelled.

"Well...I can't go ghost, my parents are in here..." I whispered to Sam.

"Who cares? We're all gonna get killed!" Tucker yelled at me.

"Well I'm gonna get killed either way..." I retorted.

"Just go ghost alread-!" Tucker slapped a hand on his mouth after realizing what he just said.

"What is he talking about Danny?" my mom asked suspiciously.

"Well looks like my work here is done." Skulker smirked and flew out of the school.

"Have you been keeping a secret from us, Danny?"my dad asked me in shock.

"Um...I...can't tell you..." I glanced at the floor, trying to avoid eye-contact.

"Daniel Fenton! If you don't tell is right now... I'll make you tell us!" my mom yelled. She seemed really frustrated, probably because Tucker mentioned the word 'ghost'.

"Mom! Don't you get it!?" I screamed with tears rushing down my face.

"That's right, I don't, because you haven't told us what the hell is going on!" mom fired back.

"Do you want me to tell them Danny?" Sam asked me. What the heck!? Why does Sam want to tell them? No. I have to tell them. It's time.

"No Sammy, that's fine..." I started. "Mom, dad, there's something I've been keeping from you for a while..."

Should I? Is it time for them to know? Wait a minute... Why aren't Sam and Tucker holding me back? I mean, they are my friends. And they... they just.. slipped away my secret?

"I'm... A Half Ghost... I'm also... Danny Phantom." I closed my eyes and bit my lip as the two rings transformed me into Phantom.

"You kept this from us?" mom asked in disbelief. I looked down and slowly nodded.

"Danny, we're banishing you from the house. Pack your bags, or I'll shoot you, ghost scum." dad sneered.

My head shot up and I glared at them, "I can't believe you're doing this to me, I thought you LOVED ME." I cried.

"AND YOU!" I screamed and pointed a finger at Tucker. "I thought you were my best friend. LOOK WHAT YOU DID TO ME? YOU TREATED ME LIKE SHIT!" I screamed and turned to Sam.

"And for us...WE'RE THROUGH." I slammed my textbook on the ground and flew away.

3 Hours Later

"And stay out!" my parents yelled in unison. They grabbed an ecto-gun, fired at me, then slammed the door. I winced in pain as the bullet left a large hole in my chest. I crawled with every last ounce of strength I had, and managed to scrape my way to my car. I packed all of my bags in the car, and started my journey for a long road trip to Wisconsin.

Is it even safe for me to live with Vlad? Some part of me was screaming, 'Yes! He can help you! He's also a Halfa, remember? He only wanted to take care of you!' And the other was screaming, 'What? No way! He wants to kill your dad and make you his apprentice and marry your mom!'

I don't care if he kills da-I mean Jack. He isn't my dad anymore. I'm pretty sure this is a good idea...

5 Days Later

"Finally!" I exclaimed. I got out of the care and headed towards the door of the mansion and knocked on the door.

The door opened to reveal a rather surprised Vlad Masters. "Daniel? What are you doing here? Where are your parents? Or Jasmine? What about Tucker? Or your girlfriend, Samantha?" Vlad asked me out of pure curiosity. What a fruitloop...

"Tucker and Sam exposed me in front of my parents. They were about to kill me," I pointed to the hole in my chest. "But I scraped my way to my car. I broke up with Sam, Tucker isn't my friend anymore, and my parents want to dissect me... Hey can I ask you a question?" I asked.

"Of course. Anything for my little badger." Vlad said kindly.

"Can I move in with you?"

"Of course you can Daniel! I'd feel you're pain if my friends and family did that to me," Vlad replied. I hugged-actually, more like I squeezed him really tightly.

"Thanks Uncle Vlad."

I could feel tears tripping onto my shoulder, but they weren't mine. Vlad retreated from the hug to wipe them away, then welcomed me into the mansion. Maybe I could start a new life here...

But can I really trust him?

"Wow...this is bigger than I remembered..." I looked around the mansion and I swear that this cost a million dollars for the bottom floor!

"Well, you haven't been here for three years, so I didn't think you'd remember it Daniel... Do you want to see my lab? I made a few...adjustments..." Vlad smirked.

"Um...okay?" I'm a little worried about that... But what could he possibly have down there?

"Here it is Daniel!" Vlad exclaimed.

I looked around, and I saw nothing but a portal. "Where's the rest of it?"

"Over there." Vlad replied. I looked to the direction he was pointing in, and I saw something...weird. It looked like a metal chamber.

"What is that?" I asked Vlad cautiously.

"Oh, you'll see..." Vlad smirked. He shoved me into the chamber and locked the door.

"Hey!" I screamed. I pounded on the door, nothing. I tried to go intangible, but there was a ghost shield inside. I screamed and fell to my knees when the shield electrocuted me.

I saw Vlad push a button and my whole world went black.

"Daniel?" a voice asked. Shut up, whoever-you-are.

"What?" I groaned and opened my eyes.. I woke up, on the floor. In the lair. Why? I don't know. I don't even remember coming into the lair. Did I?

"You passed out on the floor after I showed you my invention," Vlad explained casually.. I wouldn't believe him for one second.

"No I didn't. You're lying...aren't you?" I asked Vlad.

"Not at all Daniel. Not at all..." Vlad grinned. "Okay! What. Did. You. Do. To. Me!?" I emphasized.

"I fixed you." Vlad smirked.

"What?" Okay, I'm really confused...

"Look in the mirror," ordered.

"Did you fix me in a good, or bad way?" I asked worriedly.

"What are you even talking about?"

"Did. You. Do. Something. To. Me!?" I sneered.

"Just stop being a child, and look in the mirror, Daniel!" Vlad snapped.

I slowly got up, and I walked over to the mirror. What did he do to me? I don't feel different, do I? Well, now that I mentioned it, I do feel tingly... I looked down and my HAZMAT suit was black and red. What the hell? I looked in the mirror, and I stumbled back into the wall and fell down. My eyes...they're red.

"Daniel? Are you okay?" Vlad asked me, trying to sound concerned.

"What did you do!?" I snapped.

"Simple, really. I made you my apprentice," Vlad explained calmly. What the heck!?

"No! I knew I shouldn't have came to you, Fruitloop...I'm leaving."

"Daniel, wait. Where are you going to go? Your friends betrayed you, your parents kicked you out, and if you turn your back on me, there's nobody left." Vlad replied to me.

"I have Clockwork and the Far Frozen." I said hastily.

"But how will you get there?" Vlad challenge.

"Your portal! Duh!" I screamed at his face.

"No you won't..." Vlad grinned. He got out a remote, pressed it, and the portal closed and locked shut. He then threw the remote and disintegrated it.

"Well that was dumb. How are you gonna go in the ghost zone now?" I asked Vlad.

"Oh Daniel, it's simple to create them, I could train you..." Vlad said. He casually put his hands behind my back and circled me like a predator and prey.

"Never! Not in a million years!" I snapped. How could he? I thought I trusted him...

"Daniel. Don't you want to get revenge on them? On society? On the government? On your friends? On your enemies? On the Earth?" Vlad asked me. Revenge... Do I really want revenge? Do I really want to be him? Kill people without even feeling any guilt? But... They did all those horrible things to me? So, why not?

"Um...I guess...B ut I promised myself that I wouldn't become 'Dark Danny'" I finger quoted.

"Oh Daniel, you're acting ridiculous. 'Dark Danny' is something a fangirl would say. Are you with me or not?" Vlad raised an eyebrow at me.

"I guess I'm with you..." I wondered off.

"Training starts tomorrow, you should get some rest, you've had a long day.

"...okay..."

I went upstairs and laid on the bed. Oh great. What have I gotten myself into? Was this the right choice?

"Ugh, if you can hear me Clockwork, please help me!" I whispered to the heavens. Um...whispered to the heavens? What am I, on Disney Channel?

"Time out." I heard someone said that familiar quote behind me behind me.

"Clockwork! Help. Me. Please!" My eye started twitching a little bit. "Should I let Vlad train me? Or should I sneak out with you..." I asked Clockwork, nervous about his response.

"Nonsense Daniel, I think it'll be a good thing if Vlad trained you." Clockwork said hastily.

"What?!" That was all I could say. My mouth was gaping towards the floor, and I couldn't say anything. This is just messed up...

"Just give him a chance Daniel. After all, he has always been there for you. Just call me if he's making you uncomfortable. Time in." Clockwork assured me then vanished in a swirl of his staff.

"Wait Clockwork, don't...UGH!" I exclaimed and threw my face into my pillow.

What am I supposed to expect? The guy is an evil halfa, and the mayor of my old town. He could've lied to me! What if he exposes me in front of everyone? What if he'll make me kill innocent citizens!

This is going to be a long night of thinking.

Vlad's POV

"Everything is going the way it should be," I assured my partner. "Is the staff fixed?"

"Yes Vlad. I can't believe he collapsed that easily, and I can't believe we managed to overshadow his parents so they'd kick him out...that was brilliant." my partner told me.

"Thank you. Now lets think of how you can sneak up on Daniel... You knew to catch him off guard. Can you short out the screen I'll be teaching him with? Then you could show a picture of the staff," I suggested.

"Perfect." my partner complimented.

"We strike tomorrow morning at nine in the morning. Don't forget it, Freakshow."
