A/N: This is my first Danny Phantom fic. I've had this idea for years but I've got so many other ongoing stories at the moment I'm planning to start basing how much work I do on each story based on how many reviews I get per chapter.

If you like this leave a review or go to my profile and vote for this story. If you have issues with some one being OOC, let me know because I want to write this like it's an episode. This story takes place before the final episode probably during season 3.

and now Beware!... I mean Enjoy!

Chapter 1: Ghost Sense

"I'm serious guys. My ghost sense is going crazy." The young boy with black hair and blue eyes took a seat at the lunch table with his two friends, Sam and Tucker.

The goth girl rested her elbows on the lunch table and leaned her head on her hand. She stared at Danny with an annoyed look on her face. "No offense Danny, but you've been saying that all morning. Talk about the boy who cried Ghost."

"Seriously dude," Danny's friend Tucker sat across the table messing with his PDA. "We haven't seen a ghost all morning. It's the quietest school day we've had since you got your powers. Why can't you just be happy with that?"

Danny stared defensively at his friends, "I've got nothing against a quiet day. I just wouldn't call this a quiet day." He let out another gasp of cold air and glanced nervously around. Normally his Ghost Sense only went off when there was another ghost around, and if there was one it was probably there to attack him. Sam and Tucker gave their friend a worried look as they watched his eyes search the air nervously.

"Did you ever consider maybe it's your ice powers going crazy again?" Sam reached over to feel his forehead, "Isn't that and the Ghost Sense connected?"

Danny swatted her hand away, "I already tried burning off some of my powers during Gym class. It didn't change anything. I'm telling you guys, there is a ghost here… somewhere." The poor boy gasped as yet another rush of cold air filled his body. While he was busy scanning the sky the school bell rang signaling the end of their lunch period. The goth and techno-geek were forced to drag their newly paranoid friend inside.

They had only been sitting in class for five minutes and Danny's ghost sense had already gone off another 6 times. The teacher, Mr. Lancer, sat as his desk grading some papers while the students worked on their tests. That freezing sensation in his body that came out as a breath of cold air was going so often now that Danny was finding it impossible to concentrate. He finished the answer he was on and stood up to hand in his test.

The teacher raised an eyebrow as he saw Danny walk up, "Finished already Mr. Fenton? I hope you aren't expecting an A with half the test blank."

"Sorry Mr. Lancer but I'm not feeling so good. Is it alright if I go to the nurse's office?" Danny smiled trying to look innocent. The teacher just sighed and pulled out a hall pass. In the hallway, pass in hand, Danny was transformed and intangible before you could say, 'Ah! It's a ghost!'

The half-ghost half-human flew high through the skys of Amity Park, searching for a secluded area where he could try and use up more of his powers. He landed behind some trees in the city park and looked all around to make sure there were no bystanders. "If it's my ice powers going crazy, then this should take care of it," he said, then turned and froze the fountain, along with several other nearby statues, each in their own solid block of ice. Another rush of cold air forced him to gasp again. "Darn it. Why won't this work!"

"I'll tell you why, Ghost Boy!" a shout came from behind him and a blast of ectoplasm slammed into his back knocking him to the ground. Danny looked up to see his old enemy, the walking hunk of hardware who claims to be the Ghost Zone's greatest hunter, Skulker, flying right at him. Skulker's fist slammed into the side of Danny's face at full force, bashing him to the ground once again.

A circle of light formed around his waist, splitting over him, leaving him standing there in a black spandex jumpsuit with silver gloves and boots. It wasn't just his wardrobe that changed, his now silver hair hung down over green eyes that glared up at the attacker. "Skulker! So it's been you following me all day!" Danny fired off a few of his own ecto-blasts but the ghost hunter dodged them all.

"Wrong Punk. I just got here. Now tell me where she is!" The rockets on Skulker's back propelled him straight toward Danny preparing to strike again, but the Ghost Boy went intangible and the attacker passed harmlessly through him.

"Where who is?" Danny was more curious than angry but Skulker didn't answer. He turned himself back and flew in for another attempt, which Danny just dodged again. "Look! Would you just tell me who you're looking fo…" his words were cut off by yet ANOTHER warning from his ghost sense. He already knew about Skulker. Why was it going off again? …unless there was another ghost. He saw Skulker come to a screeching halt looking behind Danny with a terrified expression.

Turning around, Danny saw a pair of glowing green eyes floating in space. As quickly as he had seen them they vanished and fiery green letters started writing out a message.

LEAVE HIM ALONE!

"Leave who alone?" Danny said, backing away from the writing. When there was no answer, Danny turned back to see that Skulker was gone. He looked around but saw no trace of where the ghost had flown to. "Well that was weird."

Off in the distance Danny could hear the sound of his school bell ringing. With his legs changed into a ghostly tail, he raced off to return for the last class of the day.

Danny, Sam and Tucker sat in a booth at their favorite hang-out in town, The Nasty Burger. Sam watched as Danny's Ghost Sense went off again and he smashed his face down on the table in annoyance.

"It's still going?"

"Still..? It never stopped… except for those two minutes during that fight with Skulker."

Tucker sat next to Danny sipping at his Nasty Cola. "What did he want anyway?" he enquired, while he reached over and stole some of Danny's chili fries.

Danny pushed himself back from the table. "No idea. After that writing appeared he just vanished."

Sam put her hand to her cheek, thoughtfully, "Well if we assume the writing was telling him to leave you alone then you really have nothing to worry about."

"Except for the ghost who wrote it." Danny pointed out. He ran his hand through his hair trying to calm himself and his Ghost Sense went off again. "Darn it! If there's a ghost around I wish they would just show themselves!" Danny yelled.

"So you have wished it, so shall it be." The familiar voice floated up through the floor.

As Tucker was reaching for more fries, the entire tray suddenly floated up into the air. Looking around, Danny and his friends saw that all the food in the restaurant was spinning in a massive whirlwind. In a second Danny ducked under the table and transformed. He flew out to face the vortex of meat. Green light shown from the center and the ghosts of two women faded into view. The first of a beautiful woman in ancient Arabian attire, the second wore an apron and a hair net.

"Desiree and the Lunch Lady?" Danny looked at the two ghosts skeptically, "You two are working together? Why?"

The beautiful Desiree smiled and half closed her eyes giving the boy a seductive look, "To come after you of course."

"Yes dearie. Now you can either tell us where she is, or FACE MY GREASY FURY!" The Lunch Lady swung her hand forward and two globs of hamburger meat were launched towards Danny, who barely dodged them.

"First Skulker now you two? Would somebody please tell me who you're looking for!?"

The loud rumble of a guitar sounded from behind him and a translucent pinkish-purple fist smashed into his back, knocking him to the ground. Looking back he saw the former rock star Ember Mclain holding out her hand ready to strum another chord.

"If you don't know, then we can just destroy you now and she'll never have to bother with you." She swung her hand down letting loose a wave of green energy out of her guitar. It smashed into Danny and the Ghost Boy was smashed into the wall across the room.

"Danny!" Sam yelled out from the booth she and Tucker were still hiding in as the three ghosts encircled her friend. She ducked under the table and reached into Danny's backpack. Pulling out the Fenton Thermos, she dove out and pulled the cap off pointing it at the attackers.

A light shone out of the thermos and flew towards the Lunch Lady. The ghost screamed as the soup canister began drawing her into itself. Her physical form was stretched out as she fought the pull of the light. She was nearly to the opening of the thermos when a glassy pink wall smashed down in front of Sam, disrupting the beam of light and allowing the Lunch Lady to escape.

As the three female ghosts stared at the glassy wall their eyes filled with fear. More glowing green writing appeared.

GET AWAY!

Sam and Tucker stared in confusion as all three of the ghosts simultaneously went intangible and flew off in different directions. The wall vanished, as did the writing, and the two ran to check on their friend who was still smashed into the wall. He was dazed but still conscious.

"Dude, are you okay?" Tucker asked as Danny pealed himself out of the cracking plaster.

Danny put his hand to his head, feeling dizzy. He looked around to make sure there was no one in sight then landed and returned to his human form. "I think so… What happened?"

"You're mystery ghost came back again." Sam said coming over with the Fenton Thermos in her hands. "Soon as those three saw that creepy green writing they turned and ran."

"You should thank whoever it is that keeps saving your butt." Tucker said.

Danny glared up at his friend, "Except for the fact that she's the reason I keep getting attacked."

"How do you know it's a she?" Sam asked, handing the thermos to Danny who took it and headed back over to grab his backpack. Sam and Tucker did the same. The three headed out the door.

"Well that's what they said." Danny shoved his hands in his pockets, "I don't get it. First Skulker then Ember, Desiree and the Lunch Lady… What would they all want with me?"

"You mean besides destroying you?" Tucker added less than helpfully. Danny just gave him an annoyed glare. "What?... Look on the bright side, you're headed home now and there's not another real threat around for miles."

Just as Tucker said this, a short ghost wearing blue overalls, blue gloves, and a blue hat, flew up and wiggled his fingers in front of them. "BEWARE!"

Danny raised an eyebrow at Tucker, who just shrugged, "I did say 'a real threat,' didn't I?"

Danny put his hands on his sides and glared up at the annoying Box Ghost. "What do you want?" He stayed still as Sam went behind him to pull out the thermos again.

"I Am the Box Ghost! And I am here to…"

The poor ghost didn't get to say what he was there for due to getting sucked inside the Fenton Thermos. Sam handed the occupied thermos back to Danny who gasped as his Ghost Sense went off once again. The frustrated teenager let out an annoyed growl. Sam and Tucker followed after him as he stormed down the street; headed to his house before another ghost could come after him.
