To all of you that are reading this crossover: Thank you. I know that I haven't been around to write or update anything new for these past months. REASON: My 8 inch tablet shut me down for no apparent reason last year, and now I can't turn it on again, so I can't access my old stories! Also, my 7 inch tablet might have gotten cracked Christmas Eve. When I say cracked, I mean the inside touchscreen layer is demolished to destruction! *everyone glares* IT WASN'T (totally) MY FAULT! Anyway, I got a laptop for Christmas so now I can actually publish stories instead of just writing them down in a journal and reading other peoples' stuff! It's good to be back people.

Yes, this is another crossover about Dani coming to Hogwarts. I just don't like the idea of the Golden Trio coming to Amity Park. And Dani does NOT have ice powers. You'll find out eventually… (I'm evil :) Plus, for Dani's last name in human form being Time, I didn't know what else I could have as her last name, since she is kind of living with CW. No, she wasn't adopted by Danny's parents. I just think Danielle Phantom in human form would be a little suspicious.*village throws pitchforks* I'M SORRY! *me running away*

Dis: I don't own anything except my plot and idea to mix DP and HP. As simple as that.

Prologue- The Letter

"Speech"

"Thoughts"

Clockwork gazed at the moving pictures in front of him. Sometimes he liked to just watch all the events unfold, waiting for the next scene the play out. It was his own movie theater inside the enormous clock tower. I fact, it was the closest thing to a movie theater in the whole ghost zone. Except these screens were real life; showing the different paths of life that can be taken, not necessarily directing the best way. To the master of time, one of the most interesting things is watching which path is eventually taken; for every moment time a choice is to be made somewhere.

Father Time's eyes creeped over to the right for a glimpse of another screen. By this particular said screen showed none other than present-day Amity Park. In a towering oak tree nearby was simply a girl, no older than 15 years, leaning her back against the rough bark and sitting on a top branch. She wore an ocean blue sweatshirt that matched her baby blue eyes, and some red skinny jeans, red tennis shoes, and a red beanie hat which clashed with her long raven-black hair; currently whipped back in a ponytail. It was unusual that she was one of the two few in the town of Amity who weren't sweating. Everyone else in the town was sweltering; for it was late June. Of course, this girl was very special; not a human entirely even. This was Danielle; half-human, half-ghost hybrid. And for a 15 year-old, she wasn't as helpless as you would think; complete with almost all of her cousin's powers, minus the ice and ghostly wail back-up. And at this point of time, Dani was rather bored, for she had done this same thing previously days before. Leaning against a random tree; wondering where to travel next. After all, where does a deserted clone even belong?

Clockwork felt faint tears crawling to the front of his eyes. He knew what it felt like to be lonely. A horrible emotion that he was already accustomed with, having spent centuries as the time master. And this girl, has went through so much as such a young age. No. Clockwork was going to change that. He was going to give her a new chance at life.

Quickly rubbing his eyes (professionally, mind you) he tapped the top button of his violet staff, using his pointer finger at this moment. From that a swirling vortex opened up immediately, and without the least bit of hesitation, he stepped into the newly developed light blue portal.

Now, that raven-haired girl I mentioned before named Dani was about to climb into the tree's many leaves in order to transform into her alter-ego, Dani Phantom. From there she would fly off in the sky searching for a new place to rest. She wouldn't (of course) expect the time master, a highly respected ghost, to even consider sparing some time for her, of all people. So you can imagine how surprised she felt when a circle of blue light emitted out of nowhere and revealed the one and only master of time.

"Time out. " He calmly spoke those familiar words and pressed the same button at the top of his staff using once again the same pointer finger of his free hand. Although this time, in his left hand he was gripping a strange medallion on a navy blue leather necklace. It was obviously of foreign contaminant, and its special abilities were even more fascinating. You see, when Clockwork spoke those very wise words he was actually freezing time. And this medallion had the ability to "bring alive" it's wearer as everything else was frozen in time. Clockwork made his way over to Dani, who was currently shielding her eyes from the blinding light of Father Time's teleportation. He carefully slipped the time medallion over her head. When she fluttered her eyes open she gasped at the sight she saw, not believing her own eyes.

"C-Clockwork?!" The girl managed to stutter out. She was clearly at a loss of words.

"Yes, Danielle. Surprised to see me?" He coolly replied back.

"Of course! I knew you were Danny's friend, b-but not mine! Why are you here; to see me?" She nervously asked. Have I done something wrong?

"I was wondering if you could do me a favor…"

"M-me? You want me?!" Dani was stuttering again. "Of course, a-anything!"

"Then grab hold of my arm. We must travel back to my clock tower." Clockwork extended his arm for Dani to hold. She obediently gripped the sleeve of the robes he wore, and with that they were off.

"Time in." Clockwork stated, returning free movement to all; time was restored.

Dani hated this feeling of teleportation. She felt like all her insides were splashing around inside of her, and that she might puke them up any second. Worst of all, she had eaten nothing recently and therefore couldn't get anything up her throat. The queasy feeling just wouldn't go away. And she couldn't figure out how the heck Clockwork did this every day, either. Of course, he was already used to all of this.

"Whoa." She was amazed at the tower they were now in. There were hundreds of gears and clocks turning in all directions; ticking at their own different pace. Not to mention the millions of books lined up against the walls, within massive shelves holding them up. With a keen eye, Dani couldn't help but notice a dented Fenton thermos shifting to the left a little, like whatever was inside was struggling to escape the containment. She thought she heard some faint swearing as well.

"Welcome to my clock tower." She heard Father Time explain. Dani gazed up at the purple cloaked figure floating in front of her. She was one of the few lucky enough to meet the master of time. The one and only Clockwork. Dani still had a very hard time telling herself that she wasn't just dreaming, as she was constantly pinching her lower arm.

"So what do you want from me again?" the nervous girl asked. Frantically, she started blabbering about the only thing she could think of leading to why she was here. "It isn't about that fight with that blond-haired jerk, is it? Because he's the one that started it! And-"

"Calm yourself down, young one. You have a different reason for being here."

"Well, what is it then?"

"This." Clockwork replied, trying his best to appear calm and wise. He held out an envelope for Dani, which she curiously grabbed and investigated. "You may choose whether or not to accept; I will not influence you at all."

On the outside of the letter was Danielle's name, but there was no address written. As she flipped it over, she found a purple stamp which looked like a coat of arms. Inside them were a lion, eagle, badger, and snake surrounding a large letter H. It was of foreign design, which Dani found interesting. She hastily ripped open the envelope to pull out a yellow piece of paper. On the letter it read:

Dear Ms. Danielle Time,

I, Minerva Mcgonall, am delighted to invite you to attend Hogwarts, school of witchcraft and wizardry. I am the Transfiguration Professor here, and you may soon be introduced to other professors as well. Included is a list of supplies needed for your fifth year. Since you are a foreign transfer, please meet with me at platform 9 ¾ Kings Cross Station, London on August the third at 2:00 p.m. sharp. The first school day is on September first, at the same location. Arrive by 11:00 a.m. Good luck at Hogwarts.

Sincerely, Minerva Mcgonall

"Wait- WHAT?!" Dani snapped. "What do you mean?"

"I mean I am giving you a new start in life. I can change the events of the past to make you a witch if you desire. You may keep your memories and powers, though."

Dani couldn't believe any of this, but could at the same time. First, she meets the master of time. Next, she's invited to attend a magic school. And now, Clockwork's offering her a chance to be different then Danny! In truth, she never had shown it, but she was always quite jealous of all the attention her now 17-year-old "cousin" received.

"Are you serious? YES!" was all Dani replied before pulling Clockwork into a huge "bear" hug.

Clockwork slightly chuckled at this upfront decision. He noticed Dani pulling out carefully another piece of paper from the envelope.

"Whoa. That's a lot of school supplies." She sighed.

The school year begins on September first. Please come to Kings Cross Station at platform 9 and 3 quarters for the Hogwarts Express. Be no later than 11:00 a.m. Thank you and have a great school year

"Platform 9 and 3 quarters? Is that some kind of joke, or magical wizard thing, Clockwork?" Dani asked.

"Indeed it is a 'magical wizard thing'." The master of time explained to her. "We will worry about that later. For now, pack any belongings you might have and place them in my guest room. Down the hall and to the right. It is the only orange door in my clock tower. I will be back in about-" he quickly checked his watch, "3 hours. Be sure to be here in time, young halfa."

Dani suddenly remembered her green duffel bag which she had accidently left in the oak tree back in Amity Park. It held everything she owned inside of it! She was an orphan, after all. Quickly deciding what to do to entertain herself along the way back, Dani bid goodbye to Clockwork for the time being.

"See you in 3 hours, then! And thank you for giving me this opportunity, Clockwork! Also this weird medallion! Goodbye!"

Father Time slowly waved as Danielle Phantom bolted out of his clock tower into the vast sea of ectoplasm, known as the ghost zone. He didn't have much time to meddle with the time stream, but 3 hours was just enough. He had much work to do, and no Observant would stop him from helping this poor girl. Clockwork despised the thought of Dani going through what he once did. In fact, he preferred his afterlife more than his real life. No one else would suffer his awful life. Nevertheless, he had much work to do. Because in truth, Dani reminded Clockwork of himself in the past.

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Yay! 14 notebook pages destroyed with writing, but it was worth it! Here's just a warning: In the next few chapters, it will be mostly DP. But I will put little sections of the wizarding world in for the HP lovers. And in case you missed it, Dani is now 15. So she will be joining the golden trio in their 5th year. Including that nasty pink toad called Umbridge who hates half-bloods. And Dani is technically a half-blood…
