Me: I really didn't expect this to be so popular! Sheesh, if I had known I could make good fanfics I would have been doing this long ago!

Brandon: It's me. They all love me.

Me: You'd better get your ass back to Danny, I think he's still pissed.

Brandon: Are you kidding me? I may be brave, but that's not brave, that's suicidal. I am not suicidal.

Me: True, no one ever wants to go near him when his temper breaks. Okay, for those who might be confused at the beginning, it's a dream. Something that Danny remembers, and is dreaming about. I only put dialogue in for a reason, that way you can't tell what's going on and what happened. I will explain it later on.

Next chapter many things come to light. Bet you all can't wait for that one can you?

Okay, somebody (I think maybe two people) reviewed me and thought this would be a DannyxHarry story. This isn't going to be one of those. Though I am going to make one now (Damn you people! Not really.) so look out for that.

As I already stated in the last chapter, I am going to call a vote for the four main pairings. The pairings are:

DannyxTom (Voldemort) and HarryxVlad, or

DannyxVlad and HarryxTom (Voldemort)

Just so you people know this, Danny and Tom do have some history together. It's nothing romantic or good in any sense, actually it's pretty bad, so it wouldn't come out of nowhere. I'm still debating whether Danny and Harry know Vlad from somewhere or not.

No Vlad will not be half-ghost in this, because of a very special reason that includes Danny's mental state, but he will be some kind of creature. I'm open to suggestions, and the one that sounds the most appealing wins.

I'll list Harry's, Danny's, Tom's, and Vlad's ages in the next chapter since this AN's getting pretty long. It's very sad for the people who skipped out on this.

Disclaimer: It's not like I suddenly gained the rights to Danny Phantom and Harry Potter since the last disclaimer, so don't even think it!

"Hey, this kid is alive!"

"What!?"

"He's coughing up blood sir!"

"It's green…"

"What in gods name is going on?"
"Mum…Pa…sis…"

"He's waking up!"

"Uh! What in gods name?"

"Impossible-Uh! Ahhhh!"

"Mum? Pa? Where are you?"

Poke…poke…poke…catch.

Danny opened one eye and blearily looked at Harry. He let go of his wrist and turned over, burrowing into the covers.

"Danny! We're supposed to be going to London today! Aren't we…?" Danny turned his head at Harry's sudden change of mood.

He sighed and threw the covers off of him and swung his legs off the bed. He looked at the kid and mentally sighed. Why did he feel like this around him? Why did he feel the need to protect this small boy?

"Harry, yes we are. I'm just tired for some reason. Now get back to your room, scamp, so I can get changed," he grinned as Harry's eyes lit up and he ran out of the room in glee.

Danny shook his head in bemusement. What was he getting into with following his curiosity? Why did it seem that there was more to this than simple curiosity?

He put on a long-sleeved white shirt along with a black jacket that had sleeves that ended halfway down his arms. The back of the jacket glowed for a second and Danny looked in the mirror behind him. The back of the jacket now sported a large white 'D' in the middle of it.

He pulled on baggy black pants that had white bands running down each leg. He pulled on his shoes and slipped over to the door, turned intangible, and walked through it. What could he say; the urge to check on the boy invisibly was overwhelming.

He was surprised to see him sitting on his bed and talking to his owl while he petted her.

"I know I probably shouldn't trust him, and I don't completely, but something tells me he wouldn't kill me. I'm not going to completely relax though, he could be one of Voldemort's followers. It would be good to have a friend, not someone Dumbledore put up to it," he told the owl. The snowy owl hooted and nipped Harry's finger affectionately.

Danny gulped and backed out of the room. This boy seemed extremely bitter and slightly distrusting. For some reason Danny was sad to find the boy so distrustful of him. He would have to work harder to get the boy to like him. He snorted at the irony of the situation. Him trying to get the boy to trust him when he himself had a huge problem with trusting people.

He knocked on the door and waited. Thirty seconds later the door opened and Harry let him in. Danny noticed the owl was now sitting on top of her cage.

"Well, you ready to go?" Danny asked, grinning at the fidgeting boy.

Harry nodded, and looked like he was going to say something but stopped himself. Danny realized that he didn't have a lot of self-esteem. He made a mental note to work on building that up.

"What?" he asked, forcing concern into the words.

Harry seemed to get embarrassed, but he did ask his question. For some reason this filled Danny with pride. "Can we go to Diagon Alley first? A place where wizards buy stuff," he added, seeing Danny's blank stare.

Danny nodded and laughed. "That's all? There's no reason to be scared about asking that. If you do ask something I don't like or agree with, I'll only tell you that. Of course we can, where is it anyway?"

Harry seemed happy at the chance to explain about Diagon Alley, and as they wandered downstairs he was already on his way to talking about Hogwarts.

Harry had pouted at Danny's nonexistent reaction to seeing Diagon Alley for the first time. Danny laughed and told him that he'd seen so much in his life that he wasn't surprised by much anymore.

Harry did manage to get a laugh at Gringotts, their first stop, when he saw Danny's look of pure glee mixed with sickness as he stumbled out of the cart.

"Muggle roller coasters have nothing on that!" he'd excitedly said after he'd thrown up.

Harry was worried that Danny would get jealous when he saw how much gold he had, but was relieved when Danny didn't even blink.

"Now I'm not so sure I should be paying for your clothes!" he'd teasingly told him. Harry somehow knew he was still going to buy his clothes though.

Harry offered him a tiny smile as he walked out to the waiting goblin and cart. Perhaps he'd found a friend who would never abandon him. Little did they know that fate's wheels were working overtime.

Me: The 'D' on the clothes thing, just something I thought I could irritate Danny with. See the background thing is because Danny is half-ghost everything he puts on gets a 'D' on it. The reason why it doesn't say 'DP' will be explained next chapter, as well as the fact that there seems to be no Phantom in this story.

Brandon: Remember how I threatened you for reviews last time? Well that threat still stands, but now I'm going to rip out your intestines if you don't leave one. Have a nice day and enjoy those intestines while you can.
