I don't own Danny Phantom or any of the characters. They are doing a life sentence to their original creators without the chance of parole. Enjoy part one of My only wish.
Fenton works living room
'Ugh while normally I wouldn't mind doing a make up project for a better grade, why did it have to be about what one of my parents did when they were my age with photo's?' Danny asked himself as he went through some old photo albums.
Fortunately for the young halfa the decision of which parent to choose for the project became extremely easy upon coming home from school. He was instantly greeted by his mother who when asked informed him that Jack had gone on a three week ghost convention to show off their latest advancements in ghost technology.
When asked why didn't both of them go to the convention she mentioned that she would not be leaving her youngest child alone for three weeks. Then when asked why didn't she go instead of Jack seeing as between the two of them she was the one who knew more about the inventions than him, her answers were he wore her down with the promise of getting 'buns of steel' when he got back which of course was a little To much information for the young halfa.
Bringing his mind back to the present task at hand Danny flipped through the photo albums and upon going through them noticed that a lot of the pictures in there looked to be of people he knew in high school.
'No way Mr. Lancer went to Mom's high school?' Danny asked himself upon seeing the image that looked exactly like the picture he saw almost a year ago when he first met Spectra.
As Danny continued to look through the photo album, Danny then noticed a girl who unless he was mistaken resembled his mom. The only difference was, her hips weren't as big and her hair was longer than it is now.
"In case you are wondering yes that is how I looked when I was your age Danny." Maddie replied catching Danny's attention. "Though unlike yourself I wasn't blessed with having friends until I went to college. It wasn't until College that I met your father, and his best friend Vlad." Maddie explained throwing her son for a loop.
As Maddie told him about her childhood up to adulthood Danny took the pen and paper he had and began to write down everything his mother went on about. However, as the story continued on Danny couldn't help but feel despite not having ghost powers he could actually relate to her more than she could ever know. From the being at the bottom of the social ladder, to the level of messed up situations they both went through with their tormentors in their respective school. However, while Maddie who also got in trouble due to the biased teachers who sided with the popular crowd at least she got the satisfaction of putting them in their place before hand.
"Why didn't you have any friends when you were in high school mom? From your story you seemed like you could have had many friends if you wanted…"
"Many of the kids thought I was weird for believing in ghosts, and the end result was I was shunned by most. Then there was that rotten Pamela Manson always spreading gossip about me which kept the rest away from me." Maddie explained.
"Pamela Manson? You mean Sam's mother…"
"Why do you think we don't get along and are rarely able to stand each other to this day? If not for her I might have had a few friends before reaching college…"
"Mom it isn't good to focus on the past too much. I mean for all you know if you changed that one thing within you past it could totally change your future." Danny explained remembering how he tried to make it so Vlad didn't get his ghost powers.
"While that is true Danny, it still wish I had at least one friend during high school. Someone who wouldn't have listened to her and would have accepted me for who I was." Maddie replied earning a frown from the young halfa.
It was at this moment that greatest moment of dread hit the young halfa when his ghost sense went off.
'Please be anyone but her, I would even rather it that annoying Box ghost, or even Plasmius so please don't be…'
"Finally it is about time someone made a wish!" Said the last voice Danny wanted to hear.
Moving quickly before anything could be done Desiree pinned Danny and Maddie under escape proof claws while having the former's mouth covered. Maddie like Danny struggled to break free, but unfortunately she couldn't move to reach her Specter Deflector.
"I am warning you ghost if you don't let go of me right now I will…"
"Mortals are so ungrateful these days. Here I am about to grant your desire and you want to waste me." Desiree replied before releasing some sleep mist effectively knocking her out.
"Desiree, I don't know what your grudge is against humanity to the point where you turn their deepest desires into their nightmares but…"
"And you will never know child because your mother wished she had someone who would have been her friend without negative judgment. And so she has wished it so shall it be!" Desiree replied before using her powers to grant Maddie's wish.
Desiree smiled as she watched the young halfa vanish while adding what Tucker called the screw you over pieces of the wish in more forms than one. When her work was done Danny had been sent to a special part of the time stream, and thanks to some previous wishes she granted couldn't feel him anywhere this time.
'He isn't here in this time, and with the extra's I added history will change. With any luck he will make it so erases himself from existence which means no one will be able to stop me from granting wishes and becoming more powerful. But just to make sure she doesn't do anything to try and undo this…' Desiree thought as she used a bit of magic to make Maddie forget the incident in general before vanishing from Fenton works.
The time travel realm
Danny now knocked out due to Desiree's magic flew helplessly as the the spell sent him to where Desiree had desired. As this proceeded to happen a cloaked figure flew towards the halfa. Knowing that it was impossible to stop said wish from happening and removing him from the realm no one should be allowed in, the being went into it's pocket and pulled out a very special medallion. Making it's hand intangible it placed the device into the young halfa before stopping itself as it watched the young halfa go towards his destination.
'At least with that medallion within him he won't age until he comes back to the year he is supposed to be in. I just hope he is smart enough to stay away from everyone until get gets back to his own time normally.' The cloaked bring thought before vanishing to whence it came.
Amity park 1974 6 PM
A young brown haired lavender eyed 16 year old teen sat in the park alone and completely shunned. While she was at the top of her class in not only grades but in athletics as well she lacked the one thing everyone had friends. Remembering what her father told her some time ago the young woman pushed the saddened feelings inside put on her best face and proceeded to walk from her favorite spot. However as she walked down the hill and to her home the young teen stumbled upon what appeared to be an unconscious teenager who other than having a couple of twigs and leaves covering him seemed to be ok.
'I never seen him here before. Plus with the condition he is in I doubt he was sent here by Pamela to mock me.' The girl thought before she checked the boy for signs of life. 'Hmm he still has a heatbeat so he is still alive, but he feels so much colder than a normal person should. I better get him up and out of the cold before he dies.' The young teen girl thought before she picked up boy bridal style and proceeded to take him to her home.
Stage out
While I have had many requests for challenges, many of my readers have been asking me to bring this story back. So for those of you who liked the first "My only wish" it is back but due to not having the original files and going completely off of memory there will be some differences between the two. Any thoughts comments concerns? you can voice them viva Review or PM.
