AN: This is totally not canon. For the purposes of this story, Danny gets his powers when he's ten. Also, in this story, Danny sort of resembles Harry. I'm not sure if that's true or not. I do realize that the characters are OOC.

DISCLAIMER: I do not own Harry Potter OR Danny Phantom.

SUMMARY: Betrayed by everyone he knows, Harry Potter dies in Azkaban. It's only afterward do his ex-friends realize that Harry was actually innocent. Eleven years later, a boy named Daniel Fenton comes to Hogwarts. Why does he vanish sometimes? And why do he and a mysterious ghost resemble the late Harry Potter?

Prologue: Harry Potter

"NO! RON! HERMIONE! YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE ME!" Harry Potter screamed, tears running down his cheeks, as he was being dragged out of the Great Hall. "I DIDN'T KILL GINNY!"

"Y-YOU TRAITOR!" Ron yelled, as he walked up with Hermione to Harry and punched him in the face. He watched with sick satisfaction as a bruise appeared on Harry's cheek and his round glasses flew off his face at Hermione's feet. "I can't believe I was ever your friend!"

"Hermione, please believe me!" Harry begged.

Hermione smashed the glasses beneath her foot and slapped Harry on his other cheek. She ran away crying.

When Ginny did not show up for dinner, Harry, Ron, and Hermione had assumed that she was busy with homework or something. They got worried when they realized that Dumbledore was not sitting in his usual spot at the Head Table.

Minutes later, Dumbledore, Minister Fudge, and two aurors came bursting through the doors of the Great Hall. Dumbledore had a furious look on his face directed at Harry. Harry was wondering what the heck was happening, but he was immediately seized by the two aurors.

"Harry James Potter, you are hereby arrested for the murder of Ginevra Molly Weasley!" said Fudge. His statement had the Great Hall in an uproar.

One of the aurors soon stunned Harry. Harry woke up in the court room. He immediately protested, but he was silenced by an auror.

All he could do was listen as the evidence was stacked against him.

Harry had missed lunch because he was looking for his wand, which he found later on his bed about an hour later. Ginny was also missing at lunch, and did not show up to her classes afterward.

One of the professors alerted Dumbledore, and he found her body hidden behind some bushes outside. Her cause of death was determined as the killing curse.

The aurors brought out Harry's wand, which had been taken off him while he was unconscious, and discovered the last spells used were the cruciatis and killing curses.

It didn't take much to condemn Harry. He already had a bad reputation for saying that Voldemort had returned. It was obvious that he was lying. Ron and Hermione were so blinded by the sadness Ginny's death that they believed that Harry was guilty. Even the people who really did know that Voldemort was back were convinced that Harry was a murderer. Why would his two best friends turn against him if it wasn't true?

Just casting the unforgivables would earn a life sentence in Azkaban.

It was decided that because Harry was a minor, he would receive the dementor's kiss as soon as he turned seventeen. Until then, he would be held in Azkaban in a max security cell for two years, which he was not too young for.

Ignoring his silent pleas, the aurors took Harry straight from the court room.

As soon as they reached the prison, Harry passed out from the exposure to dementors. The aurors took him to a tiny, rarely used cell that was underground.

Azkaban was a nightmare for Harry. He was constantly tortured by memories of his parents' deaths, the return of Voldemort, and his friends betraying him. He tried to comfort himself with the fact that he was innocent, but he was almost always surrounded by dementors. About a month later, Voldemort started to get active and revealed that he was back. Harry's scar almost constantly hurt and he started seeing murdering and torturing through Voldemort's eyes. Those were quickly added to the memories he saw when dementors were around. On top of that, he barely got any sleep or food.

During those golden moments when he could think clearly, Harry was surprised that he hadn't succumbed to insanity. Anyone who saw him would be shocked that he was Harry Potter.

Due to starvation and no exercise, Harry looked like a skeleton. He was as pale as a ghost without any sunlight. Strangely, he hadn't grown any facial hair. His usual bright green eyes were now dark and haunted looking. Under all the stress, his hair had turned snow white.

Outside of the prison, a lot of things happened. Harry's possessions were locked somewhere in Dumbledore's office, and his wand given back to Ollivander. Hedwig flew away to escape being killed. Fudge was sacked for not alerting the public about Voldemort's return. Umbridge was removed from Hogwarts. Ron and Hermione comforted each other, and then started going out a bit later. They also joined the order. Speaking Harry's name was an unspoken taboo, and whenever they spoke about him, would start crying, and everyone's eyes would burn with hatred.

On July 31, 1997, the Order captured Peter Pettigrew. He was immediately questioned with veritaserum in one of the many Ministry courtrooms, where he revealed that Sirius Black was innocent. He also revealed a horrifying truth.

Harry Potter was innocent.

Pettigrew had snuck into Hogwarts using his rat animagus form and stole Harry's wand. He kidnapped Ginny, and Voldemort used Harry's wand to murder her.

Dumbledore, Ron, Ginny, Snape, Lupin, and the newly freed Sirius rushed to Azkaban to save Harry, as today was his execution date.

They arrived just as a dementor clamped its mouth on a white-haired skinny boy's. Harry's empty shell fell with a thud on the ground.

They had come too late.

The body died a few minutes later. Harry Potter, the boy that had saved everyone, and then left to die, was given a proper funeral. It was small and private, and only people who knew him in life were invited. He was buried next to his parents in the cemetery at Godric's Hollow.


Afterwards, Dumbledore went to his office. His instruments, which monitored Harry's well-being, had stopped. Dumbledore, angry at himself for failing a boy he once considered a grandson, threw them all on the ground, where they broke. It was his fault. Why didn't he listen to Harry? Now Harry was dead. Harry's blood was on his hands, just like hers…

He walked mournfully out of his office, looking just like the old man he was.

He didn't notice as one of the silver instruments gave a feeble puff of smoke, and then fell apart.


Harry opened his eyes. He was being cradled by a woman with short hair and violet eyes, who was looking down at him with awe and love.

He suddenly felt very tired, and he welcomed the darkness that consumed his sight, not knowing that his painful memories would be locked away for a decade.

"His name will be Daniel. Daniel James Fenton."
