Woot! First chapter of my first multichapter DP story, hope you like it, it's gonna be a little slow during the first chapters, but it will go faster later, naturally meeting chapters are slow, then the real action will come (hopefully I won't blow it). Well... Onward!

Warnings: Well... besides the beaten Dani, and pairings DXS, Passive TXJ(if I add it, but I do support it nonetheless), and Valerie and Star(maybe won't add it yet, and don't ask), I don't see anything else. Oh well...I came up with this while brainstorming... but I'm gonna give it try, thanks Jimmie130 for beta-ing my story!

Full Summary: After a fight with Skulker, Dani is blasted into Danny's room and passes out. Danny takes care of her, after dealing with Skulker and now he must tell his family of Danielle, and tells them that it's Danielle's responsibility as he sillently hopes they'll help her afterwards.

OK... also, timeline: Two summer trips, at least one year, this in 3 seasons... but I digress... so, Danny, Sam, Tucker, Valerie, Star, and everyone else in the A-List are 15 years old, soon 16, Paulina is already 16, Jazz is 17, soon 18, and Danielle is 13, and it will be long before her 'biirthday'. As for everyone else... I don't know their ages well, so just add 18 months from season 1.

Disclaimer: I don't own Danny Phantom, it belongs to the lord and master Butch Hartman.


Visits

It was a Saturday night, around 9:00 PM; there are some lights on in a familiar neighborhood and in front where the building of the now famous family of ghost hunters, the Fentons, live, a very familiar vehicle, that looks more like a tank, enters the view. The Fenton Family Ghost Assault Vehicle (or Fenton RV) parked in front of the Fenton Works after leaving from a restaurant in another part of the city for a family outing, which didn't go as planned. Danny and his family left the huge vehicle and you can see that they are wearing their usual attires, and they are talking as well.

"For once I would wish they would leave us alone, it's been 2 months and those vultures don't have enough yet!", a 15 years old Danny said, with a huge frown in his face, referring to the paparazzi and press people who kept following him for every detail of his life. You see, two months ago Danny Fenton revealed to the world that he, the 'weak and clumsy geek' as people often called him, was in fact the ghost hero and savior Danny Phantom, after saving the world from the Disasteroid, people started seeing him as for who he was, a true hero, but unfortunately, this also brought along a wave of fame that he wished would have never got since it brought also for many people trying to dig in his life to get even the slightest piece of information from him. And he actually tried to get rid of the fame with Desiree, but she was now capable of controlling the wishes she wanted and didn't wanted to grant, and this was one of them, apparently she considered it was amusing to see the Ghost Boy so worked out by his newfound fame.

And let's not talk about the fan girls, not only does Danny couldn't care less for them, since he's FINALLY dating Sam, but he also has to deal with them, mostly in school, and in the worst cases, the biggest fan girl of all, Paulina, who took a bigger liking in Danny Phantom as either ghost of human and thought that she could finally get the 'ghost boy' all for herself. But unfortunately, for her, Danny was no longer interested in her but Sam, and this brought huge amounts of anger to the popular Latina, ending in a catfight with the Goth girl, which Sam, not surprisingly, won. But Paulina still never gave up, and probably never will.

And even yet, after 2 months, things haven't got better, and if you asked Danny, he would say its getting worst. "Oh, you knew this was going to happen." Jazz said, with a quite amusing smile on her mouth, since even if the paparazzi were after her to get information, she didn't have it as bad as her brother, "Actually… I didn't consider THIS would have happened." Danny claimed, especially since their mailbox was, once again, full of love declaration cards, mostly from a certain popular shallow girl with an altar on her locker, and of requests from many newspapers and talk shows asking for the great hero for an interview.

"Not again, I gave them enough press conferences and told them enough about me without getting to much into my personal life… well, at least Cujo can eat them, here boy!" Danny called his faithful ghost dog, Cujo. After Danny learned of his new-gained fame, he had to keep away people from his house without letting ALL people be restricted from entering, especially Sam, so he went to the Ghost Zone and found Cujo and asked him to become the new guardian of the house while Danny and his family went out on some occasions. Cujo, being a natural guard dog, was more than happy to be Danny's new pet, and got to stay at the house, after Danny convinced their parents it was for the best, especially since Danny considered he earned the right to have a dog, after all, being Amity's Park hero is a huge responsibility, and he promised to raise the dog and watch him, besides, having a ghost dog has its perks, mainly not really having to feed him or bathe him and other stuff. Cujo was in charge of not letting ANYONE, except people Danny was related to, to enter the house. He still left people put stuff in their mailbox but any closer to the house and they should be worried.

After a while most people got used to it, that is most, since Valerie still was in a rather tense relation to the dog, and the feeling was mutual, but after a while started to warm up to the dog, like he did with Danny, and became friends with the dog as well, but there was still a little tension, but gradually decreasing.

The relationship Valerie had with Danny was tight as well… not only did she realize she broke up with him for nothing, but she also considered the times she could capture him and destroy him. But Danny forgave her for everything, and actually agreed to be friends with her, but Valerie refused saying she would need time, not only to let the revelation sink, but also get used to the fact that he was Danny Phantom and more importantly, forgive herself. She eventually did, and they became friends, and she also became one more member of the Team Phantom, or Ghost Getters as Jazz likes to put it.

"*bark bark*." barked Cujo happily to have more paper to toy with, or to destroy. "Oh come on Danny, is not really bad." said Jack being the usual positive guy he always is, especially since the government agreed to fund the Fentons to keep developing ghost weapons and shields to be distributed all over the world for certain ghosts that Danny can't capture in other parts of the globe.

Jack and Maddie Fenton also had a tight, but short, time with Danny since he was the 'Inviso-Bill' they wanted to rip apart molecule-by-molecule, but got over it, in 1 day, since he forgave them, and now they decided to study ghosts and everything else about them, so Danny agreed to help them, and became new members of Team Phantom, even though Jack is still trying to get Danny to be his sidekick, but that might, actually will, never happen.

But before the conversation could go any further, Danny's ghost sense activated and Cujo started to snarl and grow in size, "Not again." said Danny. Even after saving both, the Earth and the Ghost Zone, Danny still didn't have a rest from the ghosts, especially Skulker, since he said he would never stop hunting the hybrid. He followed his word, and sometimes came with a new upgrade, and occasionally with Ember, his girlfriend, who wanted to be amused of the 'Ghost Zone Greatest Hunter' being defeated by the ghost boy. And today was not different, well… not entirely.

A small black and white projectile came to the ground and hit the Fenton Works building, more specifically, Danny's bedroom wall and left a big hole in it, "Oh come on! I cleaned it up this morning!" Danny said while he went ghost and started looking around just to see Skulker in the air with his battle suit, grinning madly and Ember sitting above a rooftop in a safe distance smiling maliciously, like watching an interesting show.

"Oh this is great, now I get two ghost child's pelts at the price of one." said Skulker while preparing his blasters and rocket launchers. "Two? *gasp* Danielle!" said Danny while figuring out what Skulker was talking about, and he turned to his destroyed room wall just in time to see a 13 year old girl, get out of the rubble. A black haired blue eyed girl, resembling Danny's human form, tall enough to barely reach Danny's chest, wearing a blue hooded jacket, red shorts, and white-and-blue sneakers, badly bruised and injured, "Hey... Danny… wha-" said the girl before passing out and falling on the bedroom floor.

Meanwhile, the rest Fenton Family prepared their weapons to shoot at Skulker, and Cujo was ready to attack him until Danny surprised them, actually, scare them. "You… WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!" spat Danny in a deadly angry tone to Skulker. Such tone left dumbfounded the Fenton Family, Cujo, Ember, and even Skulker, whose metallic eyes were wide open. "Oh don't give me that. You should know very well that working for Vlad left me with information of the ghost girl, and before he had to… leave, he gave me permission to hunt her since she wasn't of use anymore." replied smugly the ghost hunter, and he proceeded to fire, but Danny simply countered the attacks with his own blasts and Skulker soon realized that he said the wrong thing to Danny, especially since he could swear he saw a hint of red flash in Danny's eyes for a split-second.

"You made a big mistake" said Danny in a low, cold, and emotionless tone. "Oh, look at the time, I've got guitar practice right now, see ya later, Skulker, if you manage to survive." said Ember, quite fearfully and left quickly afraid of her afterlife. "Uh oh…" said Skulker, and Danny proceeded to beat literally the true form of Skulker out of his battle suit, one could say he was ripping Skulker's battle suit 'molecule by molecule' since every blast, every punch, every ice spear left even a larger dent that the last one, and to wrap it up, Danny unleashed a ghostly wail to Skulker's almost-destroyed battle suit.

It was good fortune that the ghostly wail was unleashed in direction to the sky or else half the neighborhood would've become a wasteland. Such a scene never happened before, not even when a month before, Skulker decided to attack the Manson Residence and use Sam as a bait. When Danny found her she was held with a knife threateningly close to her throat and the hunter had an amusing grin, but in that moment Danny saw red, and in a split second Sam was free from Skulker's grasp and the hunter was already getting what he deserved. But the ghostly wail wasn't used, probably because it would destroy the house and maybe because Sam was unharmed, but in at this very moment, Danny's protective older brother sense activated and he went berserk. Nothing, but probably Sam, could snap him out of this bloodlust-like trance.

The wail took Skulker's suit on edge and exploded but Skulker already left the suit and was floating in midair, with his true form, helplessly, especially in front of an angered Danny, who neither haven't even broke a sweat, nor appeared tired at all, and Skulker was literally fearing for his afterlife, but he was saved by a blue light that meant heaven to him, but was in fact a Fenton Thermos sucking him in, fired by Maddie Fenton, who hoped his son wouldn't snap at her for stopping the fight. But that wasn't the case since Danny relaxed and flew to his room, through the hole the wall had, obviously looking for the girl that was attacked by the ghost hunter before.

The rest of the family, with the exception of Cujo, who stayed outside and returned to normal size to proceed guarding the house, got inside the house and climbed up the stairs to Danny's bedroom and found it empty, so they searched the rest of the house and eventually got to the guest bedroom and found Danny with a first-aid kit, already nursing the mystery girl, "Danny, who is she?" asked Maddie, worried about the girl and confused about who was she, and about what happened, and with the slightest hint of fear in her voice afraid of his son not quite venting his anger after the beating he gave to the ghost, currently in the thermos.

"Danielle." replied Danny quite gloomily while still tending the wounded girl. The Fenton Family observed in silence sitting in a few chairs located in the white guest room, while Danny was applying bandages to the wounded girl that now had her arms and legs covering various wounds and bruises and a band-aid on her jaw bone covering a small scar.

When Danny was done he gazed his family and asked "Can she stay here for now?", "Danny, this girl should be brought to her family, They must be-" stopped suddenly Maddie after seeing a flash of pain, sorrow and sadness on her son, obviously getting that this girl must be homeless, or at least doesn't have a family. "Sure, she can stay here." said Maddie which, in turn, made Danny give a small smile in response.

The entire family left the room and went downstairs to the living room, since it was 9:30 PM, still early to go to bed, and asked Danny about the girl in the guest bedroom. "All I can say is that she's Danielle and that she has ghost powers like me, the rest of her story is not really my responsibility to reveal, she's going to tell you when she wakes up in the morning." answered Danny.

Later that night everyone was asleep in their own rooms, with the exception of Danny who was neither in his room, due to being damaged earlier and now having to lay in the couch located in the living room, nor asleep, too worried about the ghost-powered girl asleep in the guest bedroom, a girl he considered a cousin, no- a sister, who was actually his clone.

He went up the flight of stairs and peeked on the guest bedroom to find Dani asleep and covered in a blanket, possibly something his mother must've done, and watched as she was sleeping. Danny felt guilt, because he thought that this wouldn't have happened if he found his clone sooner. Since the Disasteroid stopped being a threat, and with Vlad in outer space, Danny thought it was time to reveal the truth of his younger cousin/sister/clone, despite the fact that he would have to reveal the identity of her creator and the reason she was created, but he felt that no matter what, his family and friends, would trust him. Unfortunately that wasn't the case, since Danny was so busy with having to visit the greatest leaders of the world and attending talk shows and press conferences, and dating Sam and other stuff, that he didn't had the time to find her, it didn't help either that she left after the Disasteroid was no longer a danger. Danny approached the girl in the bed, who was slightly shaking and with a frown in her face, also sweating a little.

'Must be a nightmare.', Danny thought. So he leaned and gave her a kiss the forehead, which appeared to have calmed her, as the ghost girl now had a small smile in her face, and stopped shaking and sweating, Danny left the room, with newfound tiredness and reached the couch downstairs to fall asleep there.

Unfortunately, he failed to notice a pair of turquoise eyes belonging to a now skeptical Jazz Fenton, who saw the scene in the guest bedroom and was now filled with more questions than ever, especially since she thinks she remembers the girl somehow from somewhere, but can't quite put her finger on it, also she's also jumping into conclusions about Dani's relation to her brother, and she has no idea that all of them are wrong in more ways that just incorrect. But she ultimately decided to ask her brother in the morning, or Danielle herself, and clear her mind of wrong thoughts, especially since she knows her brother would never cheat on Sam, so she went to her bed and eventually fell asleep too.


Hope you like it, don't expect updates soon though... I was trying to finish the story first BEFORE posting it, I hate it when I'm waiting for updates and I don't want to do the same to you (that is if there are any loyal readers out there)

Review, please! You know you want to.
