Can't blame the pizza for this one... I wasn't at work when it was concieved. So... this is probably more like "Attack of the killer plot bunnies." Vicious little beasts, those plot bunnies.

Anyway, the following fanfiction is the result of a rediscovery of my obsession with Danny Phantom. Been a "phan-girl" since the thing premiered.

Drivel? Maybe. Something I'm writing just to get out of my system so the plunnies won't haunt me? Probably. A good idea? No clue. Will I enjoy writing it?

VERY yes.

In the basement, among the tools and scrap metal and blueprints strewn about the floor, there was a hole in the wall.

Well, it was really more like a tunnel, upon closer examination.

His parents (or rather, mother and grandfather) had built it. After several months of sawing, wedling, drilling and swearing, leaving he and his older sister to eat microwave dinners upstairs and wonder what on earth they were up to down there, the two adults lifted their blast-shield masks to call the kids downstairs and have a family "turn on the crazy machine" gathering.

Too bad it didn't work.

With a fizz and a pop, the machine gave a shuddering whine as his grandfather plugged it in, and sat there, cold and not working. His family truged away, upset that so much time, money, labor and love had gone into a failed experiment.

The fact that it had failed had not stopped his friends from wanting to see it.

"Come on!" said one friend, smoothing her plaid skirt and peering around him to see the machine. "How can you NOT want to see it?"

"It's... WEIRD," he said, figeting uncomfortably and blowing a hank of black hair out of his eyes, "...and it doesn't work."

"But you gotta admit, a portal to another dimension IS kind of cool," added the other friend, pushing his black-rimmed glasses up his nose before returning to a game of Snakes on his PDA.

The boy turned around to face the tunnel in his basement wall. "I guess your right... who KNOWS what kind of awesome stuff could be on the other side?"

The first friend threw him one of the special outfits left out for him by his family, in case he ever did show an interest in the family business. He slowly put it on, and turned cautiously towards the machine.

Hesitating, he gave his friends a backwards glance. They grinned, and the second gave him a thumbs up.

Swallowing hard, he steeled himself and stepped inside. And another step. Putting one hand out nervously, he felt it brush against something protruding from the wall.

With a soft beep, the knob went in the wall. Panicking, his eyes flashed over to where his hand was resting.

ON.

The last thing he remembered thinking is "what kind of moron puts the 'ON' button INSIDE a portal?"

There was a great big flash and everything just...

CHANGED.

And we're off!

So yeah. Inuyasha/Danny Phantom Xover equals major plot bunny.

I know the prologue isn't terribly long, but you'll just have to trust me when I say "the parallels between Inuyasha and Danny Phantom are IMMENSE"

Button's down there. Review, plzkthx.
