The Vessel - A Danny Phantom AU, a danny phantom fanfic

p class="MsoNormal"span lang="EN-US"Some things to clear up:/span/p

p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"span lang="EN-US"First: This is an AU of my own creation. I do NOT own the show Danny Phantom or any of its characters, only the plot. Updates may be slow, depending on inspiration and the amount of homework/studying I have to do./span/p

p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"span lang="EN-US"Second: In this AU, Maddie and Jack never created the Fenton portal in their basement, which means no ghost powers for Danny (not yet at least). Phantom and Fenton are two COMPLETELY separate entities (for a while) /spanspan lang="EN-US" style="mso-bidi-font-size: 11.5pt; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode'; color: #2a2a2a; background: white;"Until Danny meets Vlad, ghosts are only coming through natural portals. These portals are a lot more common in Amity Park so there are still a lot of ghosts roaming around./span/p

p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"span lang="EN-US"Vlad does have ghost powers, but he does NOT have a ghost form. He has very limited powers (invisibility, intangibility, floating, weak to moderate strength ecto-blasts) and never used them for personal gain. He's still going to be sarcastic and so don't worry- I'm not changing him too much. Only Vlad has a man-made portal but it is a very small one, the size of a hand held mirror, that is ONLYspan style="mso-spacerun: yes;" /spanused to recharge his ghost powers./span/p

p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"span lang="EN-US"For as long as he could remember, his parents had been obsessed with ghosts. Originally they believed them to all be evil, but they'd met a few nice ghosts before and had stopped pursuing those that did Earth no harm. They acted only as protectors to the people of Amity Park and the friendly ghosts who were mistreated by humans whenever they came to visit. They were his heroes. They were so understanding towards the ghosts and helped them out with their issues./span/p

p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"span lang="EN-US"But despite his parent's line of work, he'd never actually talked to a ghost before. See, he was quite shy. Years of bullying tends to do that to someone. He only had two friends, Sam Manson and Tucker Foley. Not that he had a problem with that! They were great. The best friends he could ask for. But sometimes he couldn't help but feel alone… That's why this was so unusual for him!/span/p

p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"emspan lang="EN-US"He was walking home from school with his head down. Both Sam and Tucker had been out sick with really bad colds so he had no one to talk to all day. To make it worse, Dash had failed another test so he'd been beat up and shoved in a locker at lunch. Sighing heavily he turned into an alley way he knew to be a short cut home. Unfortunately, so did his bullies./span/em/p
