Okay posting another story tonight, hope to get more of a response to this one! In most of the stories I've seen Dani comes to Danny so I tried to see if I could have Dani get dragged to Danny instead. I hope it turned out okay and as alway please Review, I want to know what you think.

Disclaimer: I don't own Danny Phantom...

Ch.1 - Phantom's Copy

It was late afternoon when a large slightly suspicious truck drove up and parked just outside Fenton Works. Maddie who had been waiting for them saw them pull up and went to the door. Upon opening it she saw Agent O attempting to break down the door. "It's fine you don't have to break it."

Agent O being a little embarrassed apologized. "Umm… Sorry… Force of habit…" Maddie guided him into the kitchen where Jack was busy working on a new invention. "So what did you want?" Maddie was obviously not in the mood for their usual GIW antics. "Whatever it was couldn't you have explained it on the phone?"

Agent O cleared his throat. "Well misses Fenton, we felt that given the nature of this matter, a little more tact should go into it, hence the call beforehand." Maddie looked over to Jack who's attention remained on his latest work. "Well what is it?"

"Mrs. Fenton, are you aware of any other half ghosts other than Vlad Masters and your son?" Maddie's confusion was obvious. "The answer to that seems obvious enough." He pulled up his arm to reveal a communicator. "Bring her in."

Jack's attention went to the door. "We found her near one of Vlad's old properties. Her appearance may shock you."

Agent K began coming into the Kitchen dragging behind him a young girl who obviously doesn't want to come in. She seems to actively pull against him but gets nowhere. She has snowy white hair and is wearing a black and white outfit with the DP insignia. "Stop pulling and just get over here!" Agent K is obviously agitated by her persistence. Upon seeing her close up Jack and Maddie were very surprised just as agent O said they would be.

"Who is she?" Maddie asked still seeming very confused.

"She said her name was Danielle, she's a half ghost like your son, and shares enough DNA with him to be his twin." Agent K is able to get her to sit down in one of the chairs to keep her still. She was brandishing a pair of handcuffs specialized for ghosts and an energy line held by Agent K. She made eye contact with the Fentons for only a short moment before looking away. Maddie and Jack looked at each other.

"We believe her to be the product of a botched cloning attempt."

"Who would want to clone Danny?!"

"With Danny's unique half ghost state we thought that anyone would try it."

Agent K looked down at Dani. Unfortunately she isn't very co-operative with information like that." A chill ran down Dani's spine and she looked up.

"What is it?"

Maddie looked up as well. "It's a ghost."

"Hmmm?" Agents K and O seemed confused.

"It's probably Danny just coming home."

"How would you know that?" Footsteps could be heard from upstairs.

"Danny has that power too, it's a ghost sense."

The two agents looked at each other. "Rather convenient power…"

"Back to the matter at hand, do you suppose Danny knows about this?"

"It's hard to tell what he's thinking sometimes so maybe."

Jack looked over to Maddie. "What are you talking about? I can read him like a book." Maddie just stared at him. "What?"

"Anyway I suppose it wouldn't hurt to ask." Maddie walked over to the base of the stairs. "Danny you home?" It took a moment for him to answer. "Yeah! How did you know?" "We heard you. Can you come down into the kitchen for a few minutes?" "Sure just hold up a sec." Maddie walked back into the kitchen where Dani had gotten up and was trying to pull away again.

"Just settle down already!" He picks her up by the back of her shirt a sits her back in the chair where she continued to fidget causing him to hold her in place. "Wonder what's eating her all of a sudden?"

Danny is heard coming down the stairs and then turns into the kitchen. "So whats…." Danny immediately notices Agents K and O. "What are they doing here?" Danny walks over with the expression of obvious mistrust.

"They're here asking us about her." Maddi points to Dani who Danny didn't notice right away because Agent K was in the way.

"Danielle?!" Agents K and O seemed unfazed but both Maddie and Jack were shocked. "You know her?!" Danny looked around at them. "Uh… Yeah…She's…" Agent O interrupted him. "A clone?" Danny was surprised he knew that. "Yeah.."

"Details, we need who, when and why!" Danny looked down at Dani.

"Well she was created by…. Vlad."

Agent O bent over with both hands on the table into Danny's face. "For what purpose!"

Danny backed away a little. "He was trying to make a perfect clone of me because I wouldn't join him. He had several of them though all but one turned into puddles of ectoplasm."

"You mean Danielle?"

"Yeah, she was also the only one that wasn't a mindless follower, which is probably why she didn't turn to goo like the others."

"Why didn't you do anything about her like the others?"

"She wasn't out to hurt anyone, she actually saved me when Vlad had captured me…. Though to be fair she helped him do it in the first place. You remember that time Sam and Tucker hijacked and wrecked the Specter Speeder right?" Both his parents nodded. "Yeah." "That's why they hijacked it. They saw Vlad fly off with me. By the time they came though Dani had already helped me take out Vlad."

Maddie gave him a stern expression. "And we're just hearing about this now?"

"Well it didn't really… Seem important…."

"And why wouldn't this be important!?"

Danny crossed his arms. "Danielle is her own person, so it's her business not mine to tell. It makes things less complicated."

Agent O cut in. "The way I see it, this whole situation seems pretty complicated. The fact that she's a product of Vlad Masters only worsens her unique situation."

"That shouldn't have anything to do with it! Just because Vlad tried to take over the world doesn't mean she is."

Agent O and K smirked at each other. "So you would take responsibility if she did?"

Danny seemed shocked but responded in kind. "It would never come to that."

"But would you?"

"Of course!"

The agents smirked again. "This brings us to the main reason we came here." "Though your point is valid and she may never even attempt anything we cannot simply let her free."

"And why not?"

"We explained this before didn't we? We cannot simply allow any specter to operate freely."

Danny glared at them. "So then, what are you going to do?"

"We were just getting to that. See, if she were just a normal child we could simply hand her over to child services on the other hand we could've also turned her into a research subject." Danny's glare sharpens. "The bad news is that her half ghost status puts a wrench in both of those plans."

Danny seemed confused. "Huh?"

"You see, 5 months ago an amendment to the anti-ecto code was added which disallows the inhumane or unjust treatment of those clearly classified as half ghost without consent. This change was certainly due to your actions." "Also because of her powers we are the only organization equipped to deal with her, turning us into glorified baby sitters."

"Just what are you getting at." Maddie was growing tired of them beating around the bush.

"Well, we're government agents not babysitters, so when we were thinking of ways to fix this your names came up. Already having a half ghost under your roof makes you more than qualified to take her off our hands."

Dani, Danny and Maddie responded in unison. "What!?" Jack who had gone back to work on his invention looked up. "What?"

"So what you're trying to say is that you're leaving her here because you don't want to watch her?" Danny's agitated tone was apparent.

"Yes, though we will be happy to take care of any documentation and of course we can easily reimburse you for all expenses." "That's not the issue here!"

Jack buts in. "Why not? Sounds like a pretty cool deal to me."

Maddie looked over to Jack. "I think you're missing the point too, they can't just show up and expects to take care of her! How are we prepared for this?"

Danny looked to Dani. "I think you're all missing something. I think Danielle's opinion should be taken into account."

"You're absolutely right!" Maddie jumped at the sujestion.

They all looked to Dani who stutters to answer. "Uh… I… I was fine."

"Hmm?"

"I was fine by myself before you two. I don't need anyone watching me I can take care of myself!" With that she turns away from them.

"Your opinion is noted but like we said before, we can't just let you go." Agent K motions to Agent O about the time. "How about this then, we'll hold a trial period. We leave her here for 72 hours then you decide, if she causes any serious trouble before then feel free to call us back to take her. Of course if not we could just take her back to base where she gets to sit in a containment cell all day."

Maddie looked to Jack. "Hey I already said I was up for it."

Maddie sighs. "I guess I can agree to that."

Both Agents look to each other. "Alright then, there are a few rules. Under no circumstances is she to leave the city. Her background is to remain classified." Agent K turned to Dani. "Use of your powers is to be kept to necessary use only." With that Agent K unlocked Dani's handcuffs and proceeded to the door. "Let's roll." They swiftly left leaving Dani in a most awkward position.

"I don't even want to know what Jazz will think of this."

Danny sits down next to Dani. "So what's up? I was sure you were going to make a break for it as soon as they left."

Dani leaned over the table and rested her head on her arms. "I wouldn't get very far without them knowing so what would be the point?"

"What do you mean?"

Maddie sat down across from them with Jack. "They probably have this place under surveillance. That's the biggest reason I can't stand working with them."

"Yeah, their always bugging things and you never know when their watching."

"You can't really trust them when they make a ridiculous habit of breaking into your house with unreasonable demands."

Dani interrupted Jack and Maddie's rant. "No."

They both turned to Dani. "Hmm?"

Dani turned to Danny. A flash of light went off as a bright ring enveloped her. Her White hair turned black and her clothing changed to casual with a blue hoodie, red beanie and matching red pants. Both Maddie and Jack looked in awe at the transformation. Once finished Dani rolled up her sleeve to reveal a metal band around it. "It's a tracking device. They used it to find me when I escaped before." She pushed her sleeve back down and lay on her arms again.

"Well that's frustrating." Danny leaned over and rested his head on his arms like Dani.

Danny looked over to find his parents staring at him. "What?"

"You know botched cloning or not you two look a lot alike."

Danny and Dani looked at each other and then back to Jack and Maddie. "No we don't." They both paused realizing they responded in unison.

"You two even seemed to be on the same page the whole time those two agents were here." Maddie pointed out.

"Were we?" Again they spoke in unison. "Okay this is getting weird." "You're telling me." Danny and Dani paused for a minute and then begin to laugh. Maddie and Jack watched a little and then proceed to join them.

"What's so funny?" Jazz who had just gotten home walks in. Dani's expression becomes nervous. "What's wrong?"

Danny, Maddie and Jack stopped laughing and the smiles faded. Jazz walks up to the table and then notices Dani. "Uh… Hello?"

Maddie gets up. "That's Danielle, she'll be staying here for a while."

Dani got up out of the chair. "Hi."

Jazz noticed her likeness to Danny right away and began looking back and forth between them. "Jazz it's better if you don't over think this."

"She's like a girl version of you." Jazz looks back at Dani and immediately grabs her in a hug. "She's adorable!"

Dani is caught off guard and Danny becomes embarrassed. "That went better than I thought."

"See Maddie, it's fine." Jazz puts her down. "You're coming with me! You can be like the little sister I always wanted." Jazz paused for a moment. "No offense Danny." She quickly drags Dani out of the room, with Dani able to put up little resistance.

"Wait…" "Too late Danny she's gone." Danny stood up. "At least that tense mood lifted."

Maddie sat back down and sighed. "Relax Maddie. Just think of her as a niece you didn't know you had."

Danny began to laugh. "What's so funny about this Danny?"

Danny pushed his chair in. "It's just that, that's the cover she used when I first met her. She said she was my third cousin or something. Anyway I'm sure this will work out somehow." Danny left the kitchen.

"I wish I could be so optimistic."

Jack starts to tinker with his invention again. "You just gotta learn to take things as they come. When I first found out about Danny's powers I figured there'd be moments like this though maybe not quite like this. Just think about it. A new addition to the family all expenses paid wouldn't be so bad right?"

Maddie rubbed her forehead. "You're probably right, but it's just so sudden."

"Just listen and give her a chance, It'll be fun."

Maddie smiled and looked at Jack. "You can be sensible every once and awhile."

Well that's the end of part one hope yall liked it! Please tell me what you think cause I really wanna know! Also if you find anything odd about it tell me so I can fix it. I plan to release this relativly quickly cause it's technically already finish on my laptop.=^-^=
