AN: The idea for this came from DarkKing1's Crossover Fic "Living Two Lives" This also links "The Batman" with Teen Titans, as both have an similar style and a BO-Staff wielding Dick Grayson. Also, Memory Blank never happened, Danny added the logo herself.

Prologue: Waking Up
In a circus tent, all eyes were on the trapeze performers, John and Mary Grayson, including the eyes of ten-year old Danielle Grayson. Her brother was performing tonight, and she was nervous from the man named Tony Zukko, who had threatened them earlier that day. Her back still hurt from the sting of one of the thug's whip, which was why her upper body was now covered in bandages.
Just as Dick was about to jump into their mom's arms, the tightrope came off the pegs holding it up. Danielle watched in horror as her parents fell.
They did not get up.
The next few hours were a blur. All Danielle could remember was being lost in the crowd and ending up in the orphanage. Her clothing, short hair, and bound chest led her to being labeled as a boy, and a family named the Fenton's had adopted her, calling her 'Danny'. For the next four years, she would keep up the facade, befriending Tucker Foley and Samantha Manson. Her life had taken a turn when she stepped into her adoptive parents non-functioning ghost portal and turned it on by accident. The portal infused her DNA with ectoplasm, turning her half-ghost. She thought it somewhat poetic, seeing as she had been practically invisible before. For about seven months she was Amity Park's ghost hero, Danny Phantom. She fought crazed fruit-loops; Insane ringmasters, which was a severely jarring experience for her, being mind-controlled; She even fought the King of All Ghosts, and won.
But that all changed the day of the C.A.T., when a fusion of her and Vlad's ghost halves came back in time to ensure his existence. She had lost her second family in the explosion.
Danny woke up to find herself in a hospital bed. She was wearing one of those blue hospital gowns, which meant the doctors knew she was a girl.
"Miss Fenton?" A voice said. 'Yep, they know I'm a girl' She thought.
"Yes?" She answered. She turned her head to see the doctor, a man in his early thirties with brown hair, green eyes, and glasses. In his hand was a clipboard.
"I'm Doctor Smith. We found you outside the Nasty Burger. I'm sorry, but there was nothing we could do for you're family, as well as Samantha Manson, Tucker Foley, and William Lancer.
"That's two families gone." She muttered under her breath. The doctor ran a quick health check before leaving, and Danielle knew what would happen next.
"I promise, I won't become that thing." She had said, and she would keep that promise. Concentrating, she mentally grasped the coldness that was her ghost core. A blue-white ring appeared around her waist, splitting in two before traveling across her body, changing her from Danny Fenton to Danny Phantom. The gown was replaced with a black hazmat suit with white gloves, boots, belt, collar, and logo. Her hair went from raven black to white as freshly fallen snow. She opened her eyes, which had gone from blue with the slightest hint of green to a glowing neon .
She phased out of room and flew to Fenton Works. Even without knowing where the hospital was, she could find Fenton Works by the towering metal monstrosity that was the ops center. Turning invisible as she neared the brick building, she phased through the door and into the basement. On one wall, the Fenton Ghost Portal sat, embedded into the wall. Unplugging the portal, Danny blasted the 'on' button before activating the lock on the portal. She also raided the weapons vault, taking a Fenton Thermos, a Specter Deflector, an ecto-staff, a portable ghost portal, and a spare hazmat suit. Taking the Fenton Thermos that held Dan Phantom, she placed the cylindrical container in the Vault before sealing it. Danny then flew to her room, packing a backpack with the aforementioned weapons, along with food for the road, a change of clothes, her toothbrush, and a first-aid kit.
Taking one last look around the room, she picked up a picture frame. In it were two pictures. The one visible was a picture of the Fentons, Sam, and Tucker, standing in front of Fenton Works. Behind it was a family photo of the Flying Graysons. Packing it into her bag, she put the heavily laden bag on her back, before phasing through the window and flying away from Amity. She didn't know where she was going, but she was never going to return to Amity Park. As the halfa flew, she absentmindedly fingered a gear pendant that hung around her neck, the last thing she had to remember her original family by.
AN: So here's the prologue. What do think? CONSTRUCTIVE criticism is welcome. Once again, a shout out to DarkKing1 for giving me the original inspiration.
