Disclaimer: I do not own Danny Phantom.
The theory, author's name, and storyline are mine however.
(You can skip the theory if you want its un-plot-related mumbo-jumbo)
Danny flew through the green abyss of the Ghost Zone, fallowed by the Specter Speeder in which his two best friends resided. He sported the white hair, green eyes, and white trimmed black hazmat suet of his ghost half. Within the white shuttle like specter speeder Sam sat in the passenger seat, flipping thou a stack of paper. She wore her usual attire, black top, skirt, combat boot, and purple leggings. Tucker was at the weal of the Speeder, having won against Sam in a 2 out of 3 game of Rock- Paper- Scissors. He 2 was dressed in his usual outfit, yellow long-sleeved shirt, khaki olive pants, backpack of geek gear he never left home without, and his signature red beret.
"The Ghost Zone. A seemingly endless plain in a parallel dimension. There is no sun, no sky, and no source of light at all; however there is light and shadows all the same. For this plain of Existence dose not follow the same rules as ours. There is no solar system, no planets, no gravity as we know it. It is a green universe sustained by Ectoplasm charged oxygen, and the rare floating islands.
"The habitants of this world are commonly known as ghosts. They are, however, not souls of the dearly departed, nor are they consciousness born from a collection of emotions, they are people composed entirely of ectoplasm. They have no need to sleep, eat, or even breathe (though it is necessary to talk) they receive all the energy they need from the ectoplasm in the air around them. Not only that, but the laws of physics allows the beings in that realm to fly, go invisible, and become intangible. Despite these differences, they are people, just like us humans. They have families, homes, community, and their own personalities. They are just like us.
"Which brings up the question as to why we fear them as ghosts? Because there is a difference between our laws of physics, and theirs, if one should find oneself on the wrong side of a portal they may find themselves superpower. (Bear in mind that this is a difficult concept to describe, though I will do my best) every object within a dimension has a set of rules, or laws, in which they must abide in order to have a physical presents. This is not a consciences process, so it mainly goes unnoticed, until you enter a different dimension that has a different set of rules. The conflict between the two sets of rules will place that person above the rules, though not out of them; that person will be able to choose how many of the rules they fallow (with the least being 1) and which of those rules to follow (it's still not a conscience choice, but can be controlled with practice… in theory). In other words, it creates the illusion of superpowers.
"That being said, when a ghost is in our world they can interact with the environment as any human would, however objects from our world that get into their world may be untouchable, because they are not following the Ghost Zone's rules and the ghosts can't change their rule set within their own dimension. And vice-versa…."
"Seriously Sam, were do you find this stuff?" Tucker scratched his head with a free hand. He wasn't going for the 'rules of existence' theory.
"Finding things isn't hard when you know what you're looking for." Sam stated in a matter of fact like tone. Addressing Danny, who was listening through his head-cams built-in speaker, Sam voiced her opinion "I think we should find this person. It sounds like they know something important about the Ghost Zone."
"Like what?" Tucker imputed, "They sound like a crackpot physics teacher that's been spending too much time with the Fentons, no offence."
Sam ignored Tucker, something she was getting good at after 2 weeks of sharing the specter speeder with him, while exploring the Ghost Zone. "What she said fits with what we've seen. The Ghost can't walk through the walls of Walkers prison, but we can. And the present we came to get, he couldn't touch that."
"What about all that family mumbo-jumbo? And it sounds like we should be able to fly and use ghost powers in the Ghost Zone. I've never flown or gone invisible, have you? I think I like the last theory better, the one that said Ghosts were made of forgotten memories." Tucker mentioned with a shrug.
"Okay then, you explain where Lunch Box came from! 'Cause I'm pretty sure she said she was the daughter of the Box Ghost and the Lunch Lady!" Sam crossed her arms in defiance. Tucker poled out his PDA, preparing to back his case.
Danny was tired of this. Everyday they would start a debate over something or other. It was hard enough trying not to get lost in the Ghost Zone, never mind trying to navigate with two teens arguing about food groups, or Theory's, or the meaning of life (which they had done just yesterday.) flying backwards so he could look at his friends in their debate ready stances, Danny decided he might as well put in his 2 cense worth in hopes of coming to a swift conclusion. "Look, it doesn't matter which theory is right. It's impossible to contact them even if we wanted to, with names like 91Silver and Corndogman."
"Danny's right. Those are user id's people make up online so you can't find them in the real world. There must be thousands of 91Sivlers all over the net! Even with the power of technology, it's impossible." Tucker gave his PDA a sad hug, "but no mater what you can't do, you're still #1 in my heart"
Sam chuckled at her friend's display of techno-love. "You two underestimate the power of money."
"Aren't you against using money to solver all our problems?" Danny asked, confused by her out of character comment.
"It's not good to use it as a quick fix for everything, but it has its uses." Sam smiled devilishly, making Tucker shutter. Sam had once bought a perfect replica of a next gen PDA and used it to bate him with, so that he would exercise. After finding out it was fake, Tucker had nightmares of all his teck dissolving into paper before his very eyes.
"DANNY! LOOK OUT!"
Wile Tucker was reminiscing Danny had carelessly flown backwards into one of the floating islands. This wouldn't be an issue, had the chunk of dirt not been completely covered in Blood Blossoms!
"Why are there Blood Blossoms in the Ghost Zone!" Tucker asked before Danny's screams cut him off.
"I don't know and I don't care! We have to help Danny. NOW!" Sam shouted, panic invading her voice. The two of them started pushing random controls in hopes of finding something they could use. Not the smartest idea. Tucker found the Rocket Buster and sent the Specter Speeder strait into Danny's chest.
Danny's screams stopped, but only because the speeder had forced all the air out of his lungs. Sam smacked Tucker in the head hissing his name. Said boy muttered a quick "sorry Danny" before trying some new buttons.
Whatever it was that Tucker pressed, it helped. Well, sort of. The earth beneath Danny gave way and he and the speeder were sent to crash into a strange, unknown sector of the Ghost Zone.
Ou-oh, their in trouble. That's what you get for finding a flaw in my theory, way to go Tucker. :[
The theory isn't really important to the story, so it's ok if you don't get it; its more filler then anything. I came up with it in Physics class (go figure) and it just fit nicely into the story; gave Sam and Tucker something to argue about.
Pleas review. Spelling corrections and constructive criticism are welcome.
