A/N: Yeah... I cross-posted this from Wattpad. This used to be in the Cartoons Xover section of but my story hadn't had much success with that part of the website so I'm posting this in the Nicktoons Unite! section instead. Plus, it may seems Danny Phantom-centric in the first chapter but we'll get to the other Nicktoons soon in the next chapter. Hope you potential readers enjoy this story!


Episode 1: Haunting Revelations


Danny Phantom Opening Theme Song

Credits to Nick Animation for the video

(He's a phantom)

(Danny Phantom, Danny Phantom, Danny Phantom)

Young Danny Fenton, he was just 14,[1]

When his parents built a very strange machine.

It was designed to view, a world unseen.

(He's gonna catch em all 'cause he's Danny Phantom.)

When it didn't quite work, his folks, they just quit,

But then Danny took a look inside of it,

There was a great big flash, everything just changed,

His molecules got all rearranged!

(Phantom, Phantom)

When he first woke up, he realized,

He had snow white hair, and glowin' green eyes.

He could walk through walls, disappear, and fly,

He was much more unique than the other guys.

And it was then that he knew what he had to do,

He had to stop all the ghosts that were comin' through,

He's here to fight, for me and you!

He's gonna catch 'em all, 'cause he's Danny Phantom,

Gonna catch 'em all, 'cause he's Danny Phantom,

Gonna catch 'em all, 'cause he's (Danny Phantom.)


Summary -

It's a typical day at Casper High, Amity Park. There's the students trying to earn their grades, pompous A-list kids reigning over the hallways and there are those who just wants to be left alone.

As for Danny Fenton, whom's more well-known alias is Danny Phantom, was expecting his day to be as dreary and repetitive as any other day. However, that Friday is no ordinary day.

It was the day he'll come to remember as the announcement of the Ghost Zone Field Trip, the precursor to the hellish events that shall be branded in his mind forever.


Casper High, Amity Park, Danny's Earth

Danny's mouth was still agape, sky blue eyes blinking as he shook his head in disbelief.

His best friends beside him were also having similar reactions, alarmed expressions clearly evident on their faces.

This was not what they were expecting at school today. It was the worst possible news that they could ever expect and the reactions from everyone else were numerous, even after Mr Lancer has already left the class for his next lesson and another subject teacher came in.

"Is this..." Danny choked, grimacing in horror, "... a joke?"

Judging from the way Mr Lancer was literally dancing in class with joy about this 'once-in-a-lifetime opportunity' earlier in which the trio could not erase from their mind, it was fair for any sensible person to say that this has had to be a nightmare.

Except, it was all totally real and reality can be stranger then fiction.

Tucker's face was pale like a white sheet as he replied, "Nope, Danny. As much as I want to agree with you, this is real."

Sam shook her head despondently, "It really makes me wonder just how far gone this school has become, allowing a single class of hormonal teenagers to visit a totally dangerous dimension unknown to men. Raising awareness of ghostly issues is not a good excuse."

Several seats away from them, Paulina Sanchez was positively fawning over the possibilities of attending this field trip. She fanned her blushing face with a sheet of paper as a series of erotic imaginations went through her head.

"Does this mean I get to see Danny Phantom at his home?" The Latina swooned out loud, sighing contently as her posse of female A-listers sitting around her giggled in amusement.

Valerie Grey, who happened to be seating nearby, cringed in disgust upon hearing Paulina's lustful tone in her words and clenched her shaking hands into fists.

Glaring holes at nowhere in particular, the dark-skinned girl fumed at her seat regarding the idiocy of it all. Ghosts are dangerous, malevolent entities and Casper High is willing to let a whole class of tenth grade students enter their home world? That was not how people should know about how evil ghosts are!

The jocks in particular like the majority of the male A-Listers were, to put to it simply, thrilled. Dash Baxter was the most vocal of them all.

"Oh yeah! We get to see ghosts! Ghosts!" Dash exclaimed in pure joy, sending a punch to the air.

Tucker scoffed at this in exasperation, "You have got to be kidding me. We see ghost attacks on a daily basis and they're excited about this?"

Sam rolled her eyes as she deadpanned, "I think I'm going to quote Jazz on this one. Whenever an opportunity so cool and exotic to one's perspective pass by, one can't help but reach out for it. If only they knew."

The goth shifted her glance at Danny, and her amethyst gaze became glazed with concern.

Danny didn't look too well, as Sam could clearly see beads of sweat trailing down the sides of his face and his ashen face forming a pallor tone. His cheeks were tinged with green and Sam knew he was holding down the vomit that was about to come out.

Eyes widened in alarm, Sam quickly proceeded to distract her best friend/secret crush from unleashing a torrent of heavily digested food on the floor. That kind of sight was not something anybody should see, especially in class of all places.

"Hey, Danny! What are you going to do this afternoon?" Sam said, putting on a cheerful tone so as to make Danny be surprised at the sudden question. Changing the subject to a more light-hearted one was the best way to alleviate her best friend's concerns until a later time when they could address it, even if it means being a little too enthusiastic.

Tucker seems to catch on too, knowing how well Danny would take to ponder on such news like this.

"Yeah, you want to go to the Nasty Burger after this? I want a nice, meaty burger after school." The self-proclaimed techno-geek rubbed his belly, hoping to distract his best friend from current matters.

Sam's right eye twitched, consciously made the effort not to protest at that last remark. She will get her revenge for that.

Danny took a deep breath, before releasing a shaky sigh. He repeated the same process until a healthy shade of pink returned to his cheeks.

He nodded slowly at his best friends, "Thanks, guys. I needed that. A good lunch, actually."

Sam smiled in relief at Danny's response, before it turns into a gleeful smirk as she turns to her other best friend, "Tucker, it's your turn to pay for all our meals this week."

A look of outrage briefly appeared on said boy's face, before it quickly died down to shock and eventually; resignation as he bowed his head with tearful green eyes.

He then brought up his favourite PDA of the day in front of his face and blubbered, "I'm sorry, Julie. It se-seems I can't buy you the game app we wanted to play online today."

Sam simply rolled her eyes in exasperation before she grinned savagely, pouring even more salt on the metaphorical wound, "And no triple patty deluxe today, Tucker. You owed me a favour that other time, and I'm asking you to pay it back today."

This time, Tucker covered his face with his hands with a muffled, "NOOOOOO!"

Danny chuckled as he shook his head at his best friends' antics. They never change, and that's a constant he appreciated. Especially with how chaotic his life have been.

The halfa then shifted his gaze to the nearby glass window, the lazy white clouds floating slowly in the bright blue sky. Danny squinted his eyes at the harsh rays of the sun going passing though the glass window.

Nature sure was calm, so unlike the recent news that he and the rest of the class had heard just then.

Once this day's over and he got his list of recommended stuff to bring, he will definitely be demanding answers from his parents.

No way would Jazz support this and neither does he. He wondered just what in the world would his parents agree to this? Did they kept this a secret from him and Jazz? Did Vlad played a part in this? Knowing them, it would have been a surprise on their part. If only they knew the truth...

Danny bit his lips, his mind still wandering back to Lancer's announcement several minutes ago.


Flashback

"Alright class, before we end this lesson, there's an important announcement that I like to make with you," Mr Lancer spoke up with a surprisingly earnest tone, so unlike the drawl he used when teaching the class Literature.

That piqued the whole class' interest, especially the trio sitting at the back of the room. They haven't seen an excited Mr Lancer in a while, considering that Spirit Week took place four months ago.

Danny shuddered mentally at the reminder. The first time he had seen Mr Lancer like that had coincided with Spectra's arrival and those weren't good memories.

Taking a deep breath, Mr Lancer immediately jumped into the air before landing on the floor with considerable distance from his original position. Everyone jumped at this, all of their eyes wide in shock. An uncharacteristic wide grin appeared on his face as his entire body vibrated in vigour.

"Courtesy of the Fentons," Danny stiffened as Mr Lancer exclaimed, "The school has organised a very special field trip for our class. Starting next Monday, we shall be the first batch of Casper High to ever set foot in the Ghost Zone! Woohoo!"

Mr Lancer danced around victoriously for a moment. Meanwhile, everyone's reactions in the classroom was instantaneous. There were shouts of disbelief, shock and just plain excitement at the prospect of visiting the realm of the spirits.

Danny, Tucker and Sam were mortified in their case. They couldn't even bring themselves to react until several moments later. It was too surreal.

Mr Lancer cleared his throat loudly, getting all the students' attention back to him. Having ended his dance, his tone has become more serious as he kept speaking.

"Now, class. The reason why the principal has given our class the privilege of having this field trip is because the recent threats posed by the ghosts that has been attacking Amity Park lately. As a way to raise awareness of such issues, the Fentons have offered to lecture the basics of ghosts and spectral self-defense while journeying through the mysterious dimension known as the Ghost Zone," Mr Lancer paused for a bit, as if he suddenly remembered something, "Oh, and if you pay attention well enough and apply your theory to your post-field trip test papers, you will be given good grades to pass this year."

Taking a deep breath, Mr Lancer continued, "Now then, this 4 days and 3 nights field trip is compulsory and takes place by next Tuesday. Do not skip. After school has finished today, come to my office and I shall personally give you all your list of things to bring for this trip.

After that, the bald man carried his files and walked out of the classroom with a "Good day, class!"

Everyone in the classroom were still for a moment, before pandemonium erupted.


Fenton Works, Amity Park, Danny's Earth

Jazz Fenton felt like screaming at the top of her lungs.

Sure, her parents' antics for ghost-hunting have frustrated her to no end and she tolerated it as much as she could like her little brother did.

She can handle being splattered by ectoplasmic goo, survived getting attacked by killer sausages and helping to stash away some of the more dangerous inventions that were too fatal for Danny to come in contact with.

But this? This!? This has got to take the cake.

"Mom, Dad..." Having face-palmed earlier, she slowly pulled her hand away with forlorn teal eyes gazing through her fingers, "Please, tell me you're joking."

Her parents stared at her dumbfounded, or rather, Jack Fenton did. At least her mother has the decency to look sheepish. Even so, it doesn't excuse the fact that she still went along with such a... such a...!

Oh, why the hell was she struggling to say in her head? This is utterly and ridiculously dangerous! People could die on this field trip! And they're only teenagers! And Danny and Sam and Tucker are in that same class as well!

Her mind was literally ranting at that point. It won't be a surprise for her if she would slip up and let the torrent of words escape her lips.

"What do you mean, Jazzy Pants? Isn't this great time for people to know more about ghosts?" Jack tilted his head innocently in confusion.

Jazz crossed her arms, staring blankly at him with a half-lidded gaze.

Maddie Fenton cleared her throat uncomfortably, "Jasmine, dear... Jack and I understood your concerns very well. Yes, the Ghost Zone is a dangerous dimension and should be treated as such but we have taken every precaution, every anti-ghost technology, every detail mapping our trails to ensure absolute safety. We're not just going into this blindly."

Jazz was just about to retort back when the main door from the entrance hall opened suddenly.


Streets of Amity Park, Danny's Earth

"Fear me, for I am the Box Ghost!"

Toxic green eyes glowed harshly, "You know what? I'm not exactly in the mood."

The familiar sound of a luminous blue vortex formed, pulling in the stunned ghost into the Fenton Thermos. Putting the cap back onto the opening, Danny Phantom sighed tiredly as he rubbed away the beads of sweat on his forehead.

Being a half-dead superhero can be either tedious or annoying as hell. It can go both ways since it depends on the type of ghost he faced everyday.

In this case, the Box Ghost was more of an annoyance for him but Danny made sure not to let the other ghost know that. He learnt his lesson from the fiasco with Pandora's box that one time and normally, he hope for it to stay that way.

Unfortunately, he doesn't really care about it at the moment. After all, hadn't he just skipped his lunch with Tucker and Sam at the Nasty Burger for something so inconvenient?

He was having such a good time with his best friends talking about random subjects like peace rallies, the latest tech and astrological discoveries while eating burgers and fries. They never talked about the trip because there was a suspension of disbelief that remained prevalent in the air.

Honestly, a field trip for students to a hostile dimension where it was not guaranteed safety for any human to enter? That is craziness right there. Danny knew they all wanted to talk about it, but the desire for normalcy overruled their choice of topic for lunch. They actually managed forget about it as they converse random subjects and teased each other like they always been.

It was normal, it felt normal, with not a single mention of that accused field trip until the Box Ghost showed up. The reminder of fighting ghosts was like being doused by a bucket of ice-cold water. Needless to say, Danny was pissed.

Not wasting any time soon, the white-haired boy sent glances of caution at his surroundings for potential ghost hunters as he swiftly fly out of view from the gawking masses of teenagers that started to form beneath his feet

He had managed to spot Sam among the awed crowd waving her hand at him with Tucker beside her. He briefly smiled at the sight of them, before he continued his flight in the sky.

Annoyed at the persistence of the crowd following, Danny suddenly has a light bulb of epiphany in his head. With a mischievous smirk, he enacted his plan...

It took a while, but it was worth it. After making sure that he had lost the crowd of people following him, he quickly flies into a nearby secluded alley. Looking around to see that nobody else was there to see him, two halo rings of white light enveloped his body and turned him back into Danny Fenton.

Walking out of the empty alley, Danny fished out his phone from the pockets of his blue denim jeans and typed out Sam's contact number on his phone. His gothic friend picked up the call in an instant.

"Danny, where did you go?" Her voice echoed clearly to his ears.

"Hey, Sam. I'm fine, I just happen to be a few blocks away from my house. The opposite of where the crowd is going," Danny replied playfully, a cheeky smile on his face as he remembered misleading the more stubborn people of the crowd by utilizing the powers of invisibility and duplication.

Let it be known that Danny Phantom was not a boring teenager. He can be mischievous when he wants to.

Despite the earlier sour mood with the Box Ghost, he had felt relatively better after out-smarting the people following him. After receiving the memories of his duplicate, he struggled not to laugh out loud like a maniac in public when he remembered seeing the duped expression on the people's faces as his clone dissolved back into his being.

Sam chuckled on the phone, "Yeah, your 'Phans' really are devoted to you."

Danny's face turned deadpan, "Sam, don't start on that, please. Here I thought Paulina was bad enough.

The black-haired boy could hear Tucker's roaring laughter in the background on Sam's side and he scowled. It didn't help that Danny could really feel Sam's struggle to not laugh. Granted, he was in the same predicament as her considering what he just did and realizing it only made his frowning lips struggle to not curve upwards.

"So..." Sam dragged on in the phone, "How many clones did you send out? I bet it was three."

Danny finally gave in and grinned, "Points to Manson! There were three."

There was a bit of shuffling on the line and followed by a groan, "Not fair! I thought I spotted two!"

"Sorry, Tucker. But you have try again next time," Danny remarked with a sing-song tone, tilting his head innocently. He could easily imagine Tucker pouting like a baby.

Another bout of shuffling followed by a burst of unladylike laughter, "Anyway, you should have seen Valerie's face! It was hilarious!"

Danny perked an eyebrow, "Wait, she was there?"

Sam nodded in amusement as she turned around the corner of the street, her face brightened upon seeing a familiar black-haired boy in front of her with his back turned. As for the sulking Tucker who was walking beside Sam, he was still sore that he couldn't spot all of Danny's duplicates.

"Yep, in full scarlet gear. The face she makes when your clone duplicated another clone and both of them escaped her! Ha! She looks like she wants to throw a tantrum!" Sam covered her mouth as she guffawed.

As if on cue, a new set of memories rolled through his mind and Danny has once again found himself struggling not to burst out in laughter. The flabbergasted expression on Valerie's face as she stared blankly at two Danny Phantoms floating in front of her with cheeky grins. The two clones then swiftly fly away from scene before the so-called 'Red Huntress' could react.

Out of all the encounters he had with Valerie in ghost form, this has to take the cake. Valerie never knew he could utilize duplication before and this was her first time seeing it in action. He should really be more proud of himself and the clones for pulling off such a brilliant prank. After months of being hounded by her endlessly, this was his payback.

Of course, Valerie will give him hell the next time they meet but just seeing her priceless expression alone was worth it.

"I get what you mean. I can't believe you were there-"

A hand gripped his shoulder as a blackcurrant-scented breath brush past his ears, "Boo."

Danny didn't even react.

He simply raised an eyebrow, smirking triumphantly as he turned his head behind. Sam had retracted her hand from his shoulder, a look of dismay on her face while Tucker snicked behind her back. Being used to ghostly threats on a daily basis, Sam's attempt at scaring him was futile.

Sighing, Sam waved her hand in exasperation, "Yeah, yeah. My prank failed. So, where do you want to go to next?"

Just like with the Box Ghost before, that same feeling of ice-cold dread doused out his amusement. Danny's face turned stone-cold as he turned his icy blue eyes in view of his house not far from their position, the familiar sight of the metallic ship that was known as the Emergency Ops Center sat atop of a quaint, double-story apartment.

"Home. I am going to have a talk with my parents."

His best friends were silent for a moment, and then Sam spoke up, "Do you want us to come with you?"

Danny's frosty gaze turned into a warm glance as he looked back at Sam and Tucker. He bit his lips nervously.

"Actually, I should be the one asking you guys. I mean, if this was just a family trip, it wouldn't be a problem since my whole family has already explored the Ghost Zone at one point. I did it, Jazz did it and Mom and Dad did it. But this time, they're involving you two and the rest of the class by agreeing to the school's request and I know how guys feel about getting into my family business-"

Tucker interrupted his friend's nervous rambling by swing his arm around Danny's neck with a assuring grin on his face, "Say no more. We best friends must stick together."

Sam placed her hand on Danny's shoulders, squeezing his shoulder blades gently, "Same. We'll be right there to help you."

Danny smiled softly at their response, "Thanks guys. I really appreciate it," His sky blue eyes turned cold as he stare back at his home with a harsh frown, "We're getting answers."


Fenton Works, Amity Park, Danny's Earth

As Jazz turned turned her head at the direction of their new visitors, she saw Danny, Sam and Tucker walking into the house with varied expressions on their faces.

Tucker, despite the calm face he puts up, clearly looks stressed with the way his hands was shaking at his sides while Sam has a look of determination as she placed a hand on her hips.

Danny... Danny looks decidedly grim.

Jazz gulped nervously as she saw her brother's blue eyes darkened into a chilling glare as he noticed her facing off their parents in the living room.

If she was angry about their Mom and Dad going behind their very backs for arranging this outrageous field trip to the Ghost Zone in a span of two months, Jazz doesn't even want to know what her brother will react. Much to her dismay, this was not the time to be proud of the fact that she knows her brother too well.

He'll be livid.

Just like Danny, Jazz had just recently received news of the field trip by their parents a good half-an-hour before. It was obvious that she hadn't responded well to the suddenness of it, but at least she got the opportunity to confront her parents about the glaring issues immediately.

But as for Danny? He must have had the shock of his life getting the news from his teacher, and that the class he was in was involved in it. He must have waited the whole morning wanting to know what was going on.

As much as Jazz wants to give their parents a good earful, Danny will probably beat her to it fast. Not to mention, he has every right to do so. Danny and herself were the only Fentons unaware of what their parents were planning to do, but her brother was also a student in that very same class participating in it and he has no say about it beforehand.

He's not going to be happy. Even she knew that Sam and Tucker will put in their ten cents into the upcoming argument, considering that this trip also concerns them as well.

While Sam and Tucker respectfully moved themselves to stand near the sofas, Danny quietly but quickly walked towards his family until he stood right beside his sister while staring down at his parents. There was no trace of warmth in his cold, blue eyes.

Both Jack and Maddie were rather taken aback by their son's frosty glare. Even Jazz struggled not to shiver even though she's not the recipient of said glare. Danny can be frighteningly intimidating when he wants to.

To be truthful, Jazz was shocked by her brother's action. Her little brother would never stare at their parents like that. Even when their supernatural research tend to clash with his secret ghost-hunting, he had never once lash out at them for the troubles they caused him when he was Danny Phantom.

He understood that their ignorance in hunting down their son was a consequence that came with keeping his status as a human-ghost hybrid a secret from them. It was a fact that he accepted, even as it causes him no ends of stress.

Sure, it's hypocritical of him to be angry with their parents for keeping a secret but in his defense, his own secret never meant to hurt anybody even when the opposite that happened was unintentional. Their parents' secret was endangering an entire class of high-school students into entering a hostile dimension that somehow got approval from Casper High and Danny's best friends were caught in the middle.

That's when Danny draws the line, even for his parents.

He's not going to hurt them, obviously. But he's not afraid to call them out.

With the way his hand clenched into fists, lips curling into a furious snarl and his glacial blue eyes glaring frigidly underneath the shadow of his ruffled black hair, just have Danny turn into ghost mode and he'll truly look like a vengeful spirit out for murder.

And pun intended as well.

"Dad, Mom..." Danny gritted out harshly, "Explain to us why you kept all of us in the dark and forced my class, my friends, into entering the Ghost Zone?"


Nicktoon Audio Log: Danny Phantom - #1

[open]

Bzzt...

Danny: [faintly] ... He-...Is thi-... wor-...

Bzzt...Bzzt...

Danny: ...[clearer] Hah! Finally! It's working! Dang it, I knew that Timmy swap his audio log with mine! I don't like getting mixed up with other people's rivalry since I had too much experience with Sam and Tucker's 'veggie vs meat' debate but this is getting out of hand! Jimmy, Timmy, both of you going to get it from me. [faint growl]

Danny: ... Okay, apart from that, well... [faintly] I have no idea what to say.[sigh]

[pause]

Danny: [clearer] Ahem... So, I guess I could start with why I'm doing this. It was actually Spongebob's idea, since he wanted everyone on the Nicktoons to reflect on what we experience in our everyday lives. Sorta like a personal journal, but with speaking on a recorder instead of writing on paper.

Danny: At first, I was a bit reluctant because I am so busy juggling schoolwork and ghost-fighting twenty-four seven that I don't think I got time to do it at all. That's not even considering the precious free time I have in single day.

Danny: But one look at Spongbob's pleading face and I can't find myself to refuse anymore. It's hard to turn away from a sad face. Really, who could ignore a sight of like that? [chuckles] Even Timmy can't disagree and he protested first!

Danny: Besides, it's not that bad of an idea. I bet we can all unleash our pent-up frustrations on our audio logs, courtesy of Jimmy Neutron himself. Speaking of which, [stretch knuckles] I am going to give those two boys a nice talk when we communicate with one another again.

[silence]

Danny: ... [gulp]... I... I don't want to admit it so easily but... Sometimes, I consider myself lucky to have great friends, both in my world and others.

Danny: [sigh] I mean, having wonderful friends like Sam and Tucker are hard to come by to begin with. When you're living in a world that judges you for what you are, it's hard to prove for who you are and it's even harder to find people who will accept the whole you, warts and all. I never told them this but... [shaky exhale] I'm so grateful to them, you know?

Danny: And then, [chuckles] boom! Other worlds existed! An underwater world, a magical world and a sci-fi world and who knows what other worlds are out there. Never had I met a more colourful bunch like Spongebob, Timmy and Jimmy.

Danny: I mean, [chortles] wow. My first meeting with them was one of the most surreal moments I've ever had in my life, second only to the portal incident. I never thought that I would live out the Multiverse Theory and even befriend people from other worlds. I mean, it's literally weird but [snort] then again, I'm a half-dead superhero.

Danny: Granted, I've met them under serious circumstances, [coughed] the Syndicate [coughed], but honestly, I'll never trade those moments for anything. Through thick and thin, we formed a tightly-knit group.

Danny: It was just the four of us at first, and Wanda and Cosmo too. But then I suggested we could add others to our team. Sam and Tucker were the first to join since I want all of my best friends together, [faintly] Spongebob's rubbing off on me, [clearly] and Chloe and Proof joined as well. There's also Sheen, Cindy and Patrick though I haven't got the chance to talk to them that much.

Danny: These past two years of being friends with them... Surprised me, a lot. Just like me, those three had their fair share of life throwing curve-balls at them and they didn't even bat an eye that I'm part ghost. They accepted me at first glance, just like Sam and Tucker did. [pause] Well, Jimmy was confused at first, but he got over it. Mostly.

[silence]

Danny: ... [sigh] Sometimes, I don't know why I'm so lucky to have best friends like all of them. Why would they bother befriending a walking corpse like me-

Mom: Danny! It's nearing midnight! Turn off your lights!

Danny: Whoops! [laughs] I got carried away. I never thought I got so much to say for my first audio log. Well, I have to sleep soon. I've got a long week ahead of me. [yawn] G'night.

[close]


A/N: Well, here it is. One of the main points of this story that intrigues me is the idea of field trip into the Ghost Zone, which is a popular plot point in the Danny Phantom fandom. A group of teenagers barely into adulthood venturing into a hostile dimension where survival is not guaranteed for humans? How on earth does the students' parents allow this to happen to them? For that matter, why would the Fentons even agree to this in the first place? (which of course, will be explained in this fic)

My point being, how come majority of Amity Park can accept this event occurring? Obviously, the only one who is capable of pulling the strings to do this is the mayor (looking at you, Vlad) but even then, it wouldn't make sense. When it comes to Vlad, his schemes involve Danny and his family and friends and only them. Involving too many other people into his plans exposes too many unknown variables so unless Vlad is really losing it (which I can assure you readers, he hasn't reached that point yet), who do guys think is the true villain behind the scenes?

Another interesting point of this fic is how would the cast of Danny Phantom react to the rest of the Nicktoons crashing into their field trip. I would love to see Danny's parents and classmates react to the existence of cross-dimensional outsiders that Danny himself befriended, some of them defying scientific logic with their existence alone (like Spongebob, an anthropomorphic sea sponge that nobody would realistically see him coming).

Plus, I might include an intriguing plot point of people from other worlds (mostly Danny's world but we'll see others) react and notice to the presence of Nicktoons. What the Nicktoons games never addressed is how the general public perceived them to be. We already know that Danny Phantom and Jimmy Neutron are infamous in their own worlds but how would those worlds that react to the lesser known Nicktoons like Timmy Turner and Spongebob Squarepants?

How would inhabitants of worlds that operate realistically (or at least, as realistically as possible) like Danny's and Jimmy's react to outside entities that lived in worlds that existed purely on insane cartoon logic that wouldn't make sense in their worlds. (like fire being possible to kindle in the underwater world of Spongebob) Those are the type of plot points I would love to explore in this fic.

We'll see the rest of the Nicktoons in the next chapter. As for who is the main antagonist? The main summary hints at who it is but it's not who you readers think it is. Confused? Read more at the next episode!
