Maddie Fenton smiled warmly at the small baby boy in her arms. The baby cooed and giggle at the sight of his mother as she lightly tickled him and continued to nurse him as she got him ready for bed. The baby had a small amount of black hair and had piercing blue eyes. She picked up his small blue blanket and wrapped it around his body and then picked him up again and began rocking him gently as she started to sing a lullaby she had always sung for him.

Come stop your crying, it'll be alright

Just take my hand, hold it tight

I will protect you from all around you

I will be here, don't you cry

The baby's eyes began to droop and he gave a cute small yawn as he began to fall asleep. Maddie's husband Jack Fenton entered the room and smiled warmly at the sight of his wife holding their infant son and singing him to sleep.

For one so small, you seem so strong

My arms will hold you, keep you safe and warm

This bond between us can't be broken

I will be here, don't you cry

Cause you'll be in my heart

Yes you'll be in my heart

From this day on now and forever more

The baby let out another yawn as he closed his eyes and fell asleep. Maddie continued to sing quietly as she placed the baby in his crib.

You'll be in my heart

No matter what they say

You'll be in my heart

Always

Always

She sighed and continued to smile warmly at her son. She then felt a hand on her shoulder and smiled as she turned to see it was Jack. They both kissed each other on the lips and the Jack gently patted the baby's head and kissed him on the forehead and whispered, "Goodnight my son"

They both then left the room while turning off the light.

In the dead of night Maddie suddenly woke up to the sound of movement coming from the hallway.

"Jack!" Maddie whispered as she heard the noise again. She sat up and shook Jack's shoulder and repeated, "Jack!"

Jack groaned and yawned as he woke up and asked, "What is it?"

"I think I hear someone out there" Maddie answered and motioned for Jack to listen.

They both listened and continued to hear movement and suddenly heard someone say quietly but loud enough for them to hear, "Shhhh Little Badger"

Both their eyes widened in fear and they both climbed out of bed while grabbing what looked like some sort of blaster each. They entered the hallway and saw a shadowy figure floating down the stairs holding something in his arms.

Jack and Maddie immediately ran to their infant son's room and saw the crib was empty. They both then heard the sound of crying heading towards the lab and immediately started running towards it.

In the lab holding the crying infant was a blue skinned vampire looking ghost wearing a white suit with a cape. The ghost grinned and he stood in front of the large circular hole in the room with some sort of swirling green energy coming from it. It was a man-made ghost portal which led to a realm known as the Ghost Zone.

The baby continued to cry as he was scared by the stranger holding him. The ghost suddenly sent some sort of calming energy onto the baby's body and suddenly the baby fell right asleep.

"It won't be long now my son" The ghost said as he placed the baby in a basket that was near him.

Just when he was about to enter the portal a blast was suddenly fired right near his feet. He turned to see a very furious mother and father aiming ecto blasters at him.

"Get your filthy hands off my son spook!" Maddie screamed.

"Never woman. This child is the one that should have been mine and now I Plasmius am taking what is mine" The ghost said with determination.

"I don't know what you're talking about but you're not taking our son anywhere!" Jack shouted and then blasted another shot near him. "NOW PUT HIM DOWN AND GET OUT OF OUR HOUSE!"

Plasmius glared at the two ghost hunters who were keeping him from his prize, he then turned towards the portal and grinned as he thought of a plan. He then shouted, "If I can't have your son then neither will you!"

Without hesitation he threw the basket into the portal and then with a powerful blast destroyed the portal.

"NOOOOOOO! MY BABY!" Maddie screamed and fell to her knees in despair and started crying.

Jack's anger grew more and with a roar he started blasting at Plasmius furiously while roaring in anger, "BRING HIM BACK! BRING OUR SON BACK RIGHT NOW!"

"I will not!" Plasmius said with a laugh as he deflected the blasts and then disappeared into thin air.

"My baby….my baby...he's gone….he's gone" Maddie sobbed as Jack kneeled down and held the crying mother in his arms.

"I'll get him back Maddie. I swear to you now, no matter how long it takes I will find a way to fix the portal and get our son back" Jack said.

They suddenly heard a small voice behind them, "Mummy, daddy what's wrong?"

They both gasped and turned to see their two year old daughter Jasmine Fenton standing there in her pyjamas. The two parents walked over and held their daughter in a hug as they continued to cry.

In the vast open realm known as the Ghost Zone a blue skinned four armed female ghost named Pandora who was wearing Greek armour along with a helmet with purple flames and had long purple hair that flowed down her back was flying through when she suddenly heard a sound.

"WHAAAAAAAAAAA!"

She stopped and asked, "What is that noise?"

She heard it again and started flying in the direction of it, it came closer and closer until suddenly she stopped as she came upon the source of the noise. A human baby boy in a basket.

"A human baby!" Pandora gasped in shock. "What's a human child doing all the way out here in the Ghost Zone?"

The baby continued to cry and Pandora's maternal instinct kicked in, she picked up the baby gently and began rocking it while speaking in a soothing voice, "There, there now. It's alright little one. I got you"

The baby stopped crying and sniffled. He then looked up at Pandora and began to giggle and smile at the attention he was getting from the female ghost.

Pandora giggled and said, "You're so adorable little one"

She noticed a name on the side of the blanket and read it, "Danny"

She smiled and said, "What a nice name for a cute little baby boy"

Suddenly the baby hiccupped and there was a blinding flash of light at his torso which appeared as rings and started travelling up the boy's body which gave his skin a nice tan complexion while also changing his ebony black hair to snow white and his piercing blue eyes to glowing green.

Pandora gasped in shock and surprise, "By the Ancients! A halfa!"

"Pandora is that you?" She suddenly heard another female voice call.

She looked up and saw another female ghost standing before her. She had long black hair, red eyes and was wearing a blue Arabic harem outfit.

"Desiree! You're not going to believe this but I found a baby halfa" Pandora said as she showed Desiree Danny in her arms.

"Are you serious?" Desiree asked in complete shock. Her question was answered when the baby giggled and the rings appeared and suddenly he was changed back into his human form.

"By gosh it is a halfa" Desiree said. She smiled warmly at Danny and said as she caressed his cheek, "And a very cute one at that. The main question is what to do?"

"I might need some help. Will you please get Clockwork, Nocturne and Ghostwriter and tell them about what I found and to please meet me at my home?" Pandora asked.

"Of course my friend" Desiree and immediately flew off to gather them.

Pandora kept holding Danny in two of her arms as she flew towards her home. A few minutes later she had arrived and already in her home was Desiree and the other ghosts she had asked to come.

Nocturne had a body that looked like the night sky with a white face along with purple horns, Clockwork the Master of Time was wearing a purple cloak along with a purple tunic and in the middle of his chest was a clock and in his hand was a time staff and Ghostwriter was wearing a purple coat over a grey sweater, pants, a grey scarf was around his neck and black shoes, he had black hair and a small goatee on his chin along with a pair of spectacles on his eyes.

Pandora presented Danny to all of them and when he once again changed into his ghost form, it took them all by surprise.

"He is a halfa but how?" Nocturne asked.

Clockwork then asked as he held his arms out, "Pandora may I?"

She nodded and gently handed Danny over to Clockwork's arms. Clockwork smiled at the baby before him and then concentrated as a purple aura surrounded the baby's body and then Clockwork said, "It seems the evil Plasmius had tried to take this child from his parents Jack and Maddie Fenton of the human world but when his plan failed, he threw the child into the Ghost Zone which had merged ectoplasm within the baby's DNA making him half ghost, Plasmius then destroyed the man made portal his parents had made cutting them off from the Ghost Zone and stopping them from ever reaching their son again"

"The poor boy!" Desiree gasped. "His parents must be devastated"

"Is there any way to return the boy back to his parents Clockwork?" Ghostwriter asked.

Clockwork shook his head and answered as he handed the child back to Desiree, "Unfortunately the portal was destroyed and I fear that if we take the boy to Plasmius's portal, he might try to take the boy again. There's not going to be a natural portal to the human world for several years"

"Then what are we to do?" Nocturne asked feeling concerned for the boy. "We can't leave the boy all alone"

"Then I will keep him" Pandora said. "I will raise Danny until hopefully one day we can return him back to his family"

"Are you sure about this Pandora? It is a lot of responsibility" Clockwork asked.

"I'm sure and besides, I've grown rather attached to him" Pandora answered as she continued to smile warmly at Danny as he yawned and fell asleep in her arms.

All the ghosts in the room awed at the sight of the sleeping baby as he was once again changed back into his human form.

"I will you help you raise Pandora" Desiree said. Nocturne nodded and said, "I shall too"

"So will I. I can be his teacher" Ghostwriter said with a smile.

"I shall help as well" Clockwork said. He then asked, "Have you thought of calling him by another name?"

Pandora smiled and answered, "Well I like the name his mother gave him Danny but I will add something to it. His name will be Danny Phantom"

"It's a perfect name form him" Desiree said.

Pandora continued to smile and then said to the sleeping baby in her arms, "Welcome to your new life, Danny Phantom"
