I don't own Danny Phantom. Butch Hartman does. If I DID own Danny Phantom, the third season wouldn't have been as rushed, we'd have seen more of Danielle, and the series finale would have involved Dark Phantom.
Okay, same continuity as my previous Danny Phantom fan-fic, Phantom and Spectre. However, I don't REALLY think you need to read it to understand, but it will fill in a few blanks. Now, enjoy.
Danny Phantom:
Kingdom Phantom
Part 1
Arrival
It had been about a month since Danny Phantom and Dani Phantom came back from their trip to another dimension. The Fentons had accepted Danielle as a daughter, and life was running smoothly. Jack had even taking to calling Dani 'Little D' as a way if differentiating the ex vitro twins, something the rest of the family eventually picked up on.
One day, in the back yard, Jack and Danny were helping Dani train her ice powers, something she was having trouble with.
"Okay, Dani, that's enough for today," said Danny. Dani Phantom reverted to human form reluctantly.
"I'm still having trouble with the icicle shot. Can't we practice a little more?"
"Hey, I didn't pick up on the move right away either. You at least have the freezing beam down, so relax."
"Your brother's right, Little D. These kinds of things take time and ointment," said Jack, picking ice splinters from his back. Dani's aim needed work.
"Question though," said Danielle, "That last practice dummy you set up. The one that looked like a goblin. Who was that supposed to be?"
"The ghost of Norman Osborn," said Danny with a smile.
"Oh, hardy har har. You're hilarious."
Danny ruffled his little sister's hair.
"Dinner!" Maddie's voice called from inside the house.
"All right! It's steak tonight!" said Jack, rushing inside.
"Guess it's a good thing I didn't invite Sam over," mumbled Danny, following his dad.
Danielle was about to follow then in, when something in the sky caught her eye.
"Wow, a shooting star!" she said as the star glowed brighter, "I wish…"
Suddenly, Danielle realized that the star wasn't getting brighter. It was getting closer!
"I wish the shooting star doesn't hit me!" she screamed, going ghost and flying away to get out of the meteorite's path. The hunk slammed into the ground, rattling everything in a five-block radius.
"What was that?" shouted Jazz, picking herself off the kitchen floor.
Dani came in through the ceiling, saying, "I didn't do it! It wasn't my fault!"
"Then what was it?" asked Maddie.
"Hey guys, you might want to take a look at this," shouted Danny from the back door.
In a crater in the back yard was a red and yellow spaceship.
"Please tell me this is some kind of hallucination," said Jazz.
"I don't think so," said Danny, changing to ghost form and feeling the heated fuselage. His ice power reacted reflexively, coating his hand in blue energy.
"Hey, I think there's something in it," said Dani, pointing to the bubble on top, "This looks like the cockpit."
"Then let's crack it open," said Jack, taking a crowbar from out of nowhere. Dani never understood how he did that.
"Let me cool it down first," said Danny, projecting a wave of cold over the ship. Once the fuselage was cool enough, he and Dani aimed beams of ghost energy, cutting into the bubble. Finally, they lifted it up and everyone was greeted with a strange sight.
Strapped into the cockpit were a man and a woman. Both were dressed strangely. The woman was in pink clothes, with pouches at the waist. The man was in black and blue clothes, with yellow belts hanging from his waist. The man had brown hair, with spikes that came up high. The woman had red hair that fell to her shoulders.
Both were banged up, but the man was still conscious. He reached toward the woman, speaking one word before falling unconscious.
"Kairi."
oOo
Jack and Maddie carried them inside, while Dani and Danny hid the wreckage and Jazz got rid of any suspicious neighbors. Finally, Danny called Sam, Tucker, and Valerie.
When the three got to Fenton Works, everyone peered at the still unconscious people on the couch.
"I'm thinking aliens," said Tucker.
"They don't look like aliens," said Jazz.
"What are aliens supposed to look like anyway?" asked Valerie, but no one heard her.
"They look human enough," said Maddie.
"So do I, Mom, but we all know THAT story," said Danny.
"True."
"Well, what do you think they are?" Sam asked Danny.
Danny thought for a moment before speaking.
"Either aliens or regular people from another dimension. If the adventure with Spectre Dan proved anything, it's that alternate dimensions, besides the Ghost Zone, are possible."
"Hey, I just figured out something else," said Danielle.
"What is it Little D?" asked Jack.
"They're married."
"Huh?" said Valerie.
"Look at the fingers. Matching rings."
"If they are wedding rings, what are the odds of aliens that have the same customs we do?" asked Sam.
Tucker whipped out his PDA to calculate it, but Maddie simply said, "Extremely unlikely."
"My alternate dimension theory is looking pretty good right now," said Danny.
Suddenly, the man stirred.
"Ouch. My aching everything. Where's Donald's Cure when you need it?"
The man pulled a yellow conical object from his pocket, saying, "This will have to do."
He popped the fat end open, revealing some tablets. He put one on his tongue, cringing at the taste. Instantly, a soft light encircled him, healing his wounds.
"Much better," he said, "Be with you guys in a minute."
He opened the woman's mouth and put a tablet on her tongue. The same sort of light encircled her, and her eyes fluttered open. She made a face.
"Ugh. Sora, you know I hate the taste of that stuff."
"So do I," the man answered, putting away the object, "But until the Moogles figure out how to improve the taste, we all have to deal with these Elixirs."
"So, where are we?"
"I was just about to ask that," the man said, turning toward the Fentons and their friends, "So, for starters, who are you, and where are we?"
Jack was the first to speak, "Well, I'm Jack Fenton, ghost hunter extraordinaire. This is my wife, Maddie, our daughters Jazz and Danielle, and our son Danny. These three are Valerie Gray, Sam Manson, and the Honorable Mayor Tucker Foley."
"Mayor? At your age? That takes the cake," said the woman.
"You're in Amity Park," continued Danny, "Better known as the ghost capital of the world. Now, your turn. Who are you, where did you come from, and how did you get here?"
"Well, my name is Sora, and this is my wife, Kairi. We originally come from a place called Destiny Islands, but we haven't been there in a while. As for how we got here, I don't really know. We were coming back from our honeymoon and the gummi ship accidently went through an uncharted warp hole. I think this world is far from where we started."
"HA! Those were wedding rings. I was right!" said Danielle.
"Wait, back up. You mean you're from another planet?" said Tucker.
Before Sora could answer, screaming was heard from outside.
"Really? On a Sunday? Do ghosts EVER take a break?" asked Danielle exasperatedly.
"Just part of the job," said Danny, "Let's go to work."
"Need any help?" asked Valerie.
"We'll call if we need it, but with any luck, it's only the Box Ghost."
Danny and Dani transformed and phased out of the room. The rest looked back at Sora and Kairi, who didn't seem too surprised by this.
"What, no shock?" asked Sam.
Sora walked over to the window and said, "Ghosts are nothing new to us. With the kind of lives we've had, there isn't much that surprises us any-HOLY MACKERAL!"
"What?" said Kairi, running over.
"Look," said Sora, pointing into the street. There was a small swarm of small black creatures with yellow eyes.
"Heartless? Here?"
"You fill in these guys, I'll follow the ghost kids," said Sora, running out the door.
"What's a Heartless?" asked Tucker.
"Those without hearts. They are creatures born of pure darkness, and they feed on hearts, using them to increase their ranks. They come in all shapes and sizes, but all are dangerous," explained Kairi, taking out a glowing crystal and bathing the others in its light.
"There. Now the Heartless can't feed on you, but only if you don't yield to the darkness in your heart. Now, what do you have in the way of weapons?"
oOo
"I expected Skulker or Technus. What are these things?" asked Dani, blasting several of the shadowy creatures.
"I don't know, but keep blasting," shouted Danny, casting a freezing beam over a group of armored ones.
Suddenly, a rain of fire took out a large row of incoming creatures. Danny turned to see where the fire came from, and saw Sora standing there with a smoking fist.
"I still got it," he said before putting his hands together and summoning some lightning bolts.
"Cool, but you have to get out of here," said Danny, "It's too dangerous."
"Are you kidding? I can beat Shadows and Soldiers in my sleep. They're the weakest type of Heartless there is," said Sora, putting his hands together again. But this time, a shaft of light emerged from his hands. The shaft turned into a sword-like weapon that looked like a giant key. The key was silver, with a yellow hilt and a silver chain on the end.
"Let's dance, Heartless. Sonic Blade!"
Sora dashed forward at an alarming speed, destroying multiple enemies. He did this several more times before stopping and launching a fireball. Then, he slashed at the Heartless, cutting them down left and right.
"Wow, just…wow," said Dani.
"Let's get back in the game and give him a hand," said Danny.
But before they could, the Heartless stopped coming. The ones still on the street disappeared.
"I think they gave up," said Dani.
"Don't be too sure," said Sora.
Suddenly, a several large metallic pieces fell from the sky. They assembled into what looked like a purple robot. On its chest was a black heart symbol.
"Guard Armor? This'll be fast," said Sora, leaping at the head and giving it a powerful strike. The robot collapsed in a heap.
"Okay, that was TOO easy," said Sora, backing up defensively.
"I've got BAD feeling about this," said Danny.
Suddenly, the pieces rose back up and formed a new robot. This one had hands for feet and feet for hands.
"Great, the Opposite Armor," said Sora, "What next? Behemoth?"
The Opposite Armor launched its fists at them. Sora rolled out of the way, and the two half-ghosts took to the skies. Dani tried to swoop in and hit the monster, but was repelled by a strange force. She tried to blast it, but the Ghost Ray hit a bubble of energy.
"Hey, this thing has some kind of shield," she said, "Real sci-fi type thing."
"That's new, but I think I can bring the shield down," said Sora.
"Once you do, get out of the way. I'm going to try something big," said Danny.
Sora nodded and leapt at the Heartless.
"Ragnarok!" he shouted, striking the shield with a flurry of slashes, before charging an energy ball at the tip of his Keyblade. The ball split apart into a burst of laser shots, all of which struck the shield, destroying it. Sora leapt out of the way as Danny Phantom took a deep breath…
and let loose a Ghostly Wail.
The shockwave of sound and ectoplasmic energy hit Opposite Armor head on, causing massive damage. Danny kept up the attack, and Dani and Sora fired energy bolts from Danny's side. Finally, the monster's hands and feet exploded. Then, the torso fell, heavily damaged. Danny stopped the Wail and reverted back to human form, while Sora stuck the killing blow to the head of the Heartless. The remaining pieces of Opposite Armor evaporated in purple light, and a large heart flew skyward, free from Heartless clutches.
"Now," said Sora, "Let's get back to the house, and Kairi and I will explain everything."
oOo
"…and the only thing the Heartless really fear are the Keyblades," said Sora, "which can only be wielded by a select few. The Keyblades themselves choose their masters."
"So, you've fought a lot of these things before?" asked Maddie, nursing a wound from one of the Shadow's claws.
"Heck, it's our job," said Kairi, "The Heartless have been around for years, so eventually, King Mickey and the rulers of several other worlds decided that the worlds shouldn't be separate anymore. They created a transit system of gummi ships between them, as well as our organization, the Warriors of Light. We are made up of heroes from many worlds, and we defend the worlds from the Heartless. We share information and come to each other's aid if need be."
"If the Heartless are here, that means that something lured them here, something that wasn't here before," said Sora, "This is an out-of-the-way world, so either something happened here recently that caught the attention of the Heartless…"
"Or, something or someone lured them here," finished Kairi.
"But, who would be crazy enough to do that?" asked Valerie, "If these Heartless are as dangerous as you say they are, then someone would have to be pretty power hungry to do it."
"Or, he would have to be a fruit loop," said Tucker.
"I know where you're going with that Tuck, but Vlad's no fool," said Danny, "Besides, he's been locked up in the Ghost Zone Prison since the trial by the UN. I should know. I suggested the prison, and I brought him there. Walker even said that if he ever escaped, I'd be the first to know."
"Then who-" Danielle began, but an energy surge rocked the room. Everyone got out their respective weapons (Keyblades, armor, ecto-guns, ghost forms) and pointed them at the ball of energy forming in the corner of the room. A figure lurched out of it and collapsed, bleeding green blood as the ball disappeared. Danny recognized him at once.
"Clockwork!" he shouted, rushing over and sitting the powerful ghost up. Clockwork was badly beaten up, multiple wounds bleeding ectoplasm.
"Someone get me some ecto-healer!" shouted Danny, and Jack ran to get the elixir.
Suddenly, Clockwork grabbed the front of Danny's suit and tried to say something.
"The…creatures."
"Save your strength, Clockwork," Danny said, but the ancient ghost shook his head and spoke again.
"Came to…warn you."
"Warn me about what?"
"Dark creatures…attacked suddenly…couldn't stop them…they took…"
"What? What did they take?"
"The…th…ther…"
"The what? What?"
"The…thermos," Clockwork finally said before collapsing.
Danny grew pale, paler than usual in his ghost form. He fell back with a look of utter terror on this face.
"No. Not that. Anything but that.
"Anything but…
"HIM."
Danny meets Sora. That's right, one of my all-time favorite video games, "Kingdom Hearts", is meeting one of my favorite shows, "Danny Phantom"! I couldn't resist.
For Sora's continuity, it's taking place in a future where he's married to Kairi (big surprise, but who cares if it's predictable) and part of an organization of heroes from many worlds. In short, after whatever happens in Kingdom Hearts III, whenever it comes out (which is why I'm VERY vague about several details in Sora's case).
Also, big props to WingsofMorphius. Dani's nickname, 'Little D', is his creation, from his story, 'Project AMITY'
And before I forget, I don't own ANYONE involved in Kingdom Hearts. Disney and Square Enix do. Although I WOULD like to meet Stitch.
