A/N: ok, so the challenge was for baby Danny, so I have to change his age, sorry. Good news is that he is now six months old! Yay! And I am in the process of editing the first chapter, thanks to hopeistheway. Thanks for the constructive criticism! I love it!
this is short, but whatever.
Chapter 2
Little baby Danny found himself to be floating lazily on a rock in the ghost zone. Of course, being so young, he didn't know this, he just thought that he was having a nice little trip to…well, he didn't know. Being only six months old, he didn't wonder very much, and his limited vocabulary allowed him only so much to say and ask.
He cooed as the inertia from his initial jump into the ghost zone pushed the floating rock along. He passed many amazing sights: floating islands with tall castles, burning lava, and many other otherworldly items that the child had no knowledge of what they were.
He cooed as his rock hit another one and he tumbled off into soft glowing grass that smelled like honey. "pwetty!" he exclaimed, reaching out to touch a pink flower that was close by.
"What do we have here?" a quiet, nasally voice asked. From behind a tree floated a man with a white cloth over a faceless head. He wore a black hat and dark sunglasses that covered red eyes. "And what are you doing here little one?"
It wasn't uncommon for babies to appear in the ghost zone, but Amorpho had never seen one so close to his home. They tended to gravitate towards the more populated areas of the ghost zone where as he lived in a remote place near the Fenton Portal. It was a mostly uninhabited area due to the threat that Danny Phantom posed, but Amorpho had become friends with the young halfa after their little fiasco with the Fenton…whatever he had called it. Amorpho couldn't be bothered to remember the name of the invention.
He leaned forward to inspect the child closer and was forced back quickly when he was sneezed on. He spluttered and groaned at the grossness of it, but stopped when he heard cries coming from the baby.
Danny rubbed his eyes as salty tears poured down but reduced them to mere sniffles when he was suddenly lifted by the faceless ghost. Danny loved it when he was carried, and this time was no different.
"Don't cry little one. You at least have a face, I do not." Amorpho's expression turned dark with sadness, but he brightened when he noticed the child staring at him as if he were the most interesting thing in the world. And there was nothing Amorpho loved more than attention. "Well, you are quite cute aren't you? And what a strange outfit you are wearing. I know I've seen it before but…" he trailed off as the memory escaped him once again. He had never been one to notice details like clothes on others, so it wasn't that unusual for him not to remember
Amorpho touched the boy's insignia, a small P inside a D, and smiled internally at the giggle that escaped his lips. This child really was adorable, and it was oh so rare for him to get visitors. Maybe… maybe he could keep the child with him? Amorpho let his eyes show the affection he was feeling towards the baby and held him close, "come little one, we shall get along swimmingly."
But, unbeknownst to the shapeshifter, Danny hated it when he was confined. Be it in a crib or simply being hugged too tightly, as he was experiencing now. He fussed and squirmed, eliciting protests from Amorpho
"hey! What do you-stop that! OW! Why did you kick me? Cut that out!"
Danny dropped to the ground on the rock he had been on earlier and promptly started crying again.
"No! don't cry!" Amorpho tried to comfort him, but the moment he touched the boys snow white head, he cried even louder. Danny cried so hard that his little lungs created a wail. And not just any wail, but a Ghostly Wail.
He pushed back Amorpho and all the purple flowers in the field, even flattening the trees and bushes that were around. Amorpho screamed as he was sent sailing backwards and out of sight, but Danny was the worse off. His wail had pushed his rock out into the ghost zone so that he was now flying freely through the purple and green atmosphere. Where he would land? Nobody knew…
