Am I still dreaming? Danny thought to himself as he blindingly look around his surroundings. As if there was any surroundings, for everything is dark and Danny is floating in air. He turned this way and that, trying to make his eyes pierce the darkness.

"Where am I?" Danny asks aloud, hoping for someone to answer.

No one answered back.

But a sudden dot appeared somewhat far away from Danny. Danny immediately floated towards the dim light, still wondering what is going on. As he approached the light, the object casting the light was becoming clearer. Danny stopped a few feet away from a scythe.

The scythe looked old, a little rusted on the worn blade. The wooden staff was also worn and began to rot away at some spots. An eerie aura pulsed from the scythe, causing goose-bumps to raise on Danny's arms and neck. But the feeling didn't dim Danny's curiousity. Instead, it grew.

I wonder why it's here. He thought to himself as he stared at the old scythe. He looked around, as if the scythe's owner was nearby. But again, all he saw was darkness. He focused back on the scythe, but flinched when he realized that the scythe changed shape.

The old, rusted scythe was replaced by a new, sleeker one. The no longer rusted dull blade became a deadly sharp black and white blade with a thin lime green stripe going from one end to another. In the middle of the blade was a great big green jewel that attached itself from the blade to the now slate metal staff.

Danny admired the scythe's new look. He liked it so much that his curiousity got the better of him and he reached out for the scythe.

"Danny?" Called a voice from the darkness. "Danny?"

Danny shrugged off the voice, his attention only on the scythe.

His hand was only an inch away when he felt icy cold water drench him.

"Daaah?!" Danny shouted as he leaped from where the water soaked through the bed.

"Good morning, Little Bro." Jazz said smirkingly as she lowered the empty bucket.

"Jazz." Danny said full of spite as he ditched his bed. "What did you do that for? I was sleeping!" He yelled at his older sister, annoyed that she woke him before he could touch the scythe. Jazz frowned.

"Do you know what time it is?" Jazz asked, her arms crossed over her chest.

"No, I don't. Why?"

"It's almost nine."

"Yeah. So?"

"So..."

Danny was about to yell at his sister, when he remembered what he had promised to do...

"Oh no! Tucker! Sam!"

"That's right." Jazz said with a smile. "You're late."

"Dully noted." Danny said as he quickly grabbed his clothes and rushed to the bathroom. Jazz left her brother and returned to the basement, where her parents were.

Danny locked the door and changed his clothes very quickly. His mind kept on wondering about his dream and the scythe, causing him slow down. Danny shook his head. Don't worry about it. It was just a dream. He told himself as he pulled his shirt over him.

Jazz took the last step into the basement when her mother's voice greeted her.

"Is Danny up yet?" Maddie asked Jazz as Jazz placed the bucket away.

"Now he is." Jazz replied. "Are you guys still working on the house's Ghost Threat System?"

"Yup. We're trying rewrite the program so that it won't mistake Danny as a threat." Maddie told her daughter as Jack punched in words.

"That's great! Then Danny will have nothing to worry about."

"That's right, honey." Maddie nodded to Jazz, pleased.

"Okay, Maddie." Jack called out to his wife. "It's all ready to go."

"Alright Jack, hit the switch."

"On it." Jack said as he flipped the switch to 'on'.

Danny was speeding through brushing his teeth when flashing red lights and the sirens blared.

"What the Heck?" Danny said with a foaming mouth. "Is the house Ghost Threat System malufunctioning?" A femine robot's voice boomed through the speakers.

"Ghost Detected." It said monotone. "Activate Ghost Shield. Also Activate Ghost Weapons."

"Ghost detected?!" Danny shouted, spitting the foam out. "I gotta-" Danny paused when he heard the sound of a ghost hunting gun warming up. He turned towards the sink, where a snake-like gun sprung from the drain and aimed at him. It fired a green plasma at Danny, who jumped high enough to avoid the shot, but lost his toothbrush in the process. He landed on the tile floor and shot an ice beam at the gun, which instantly froze. Danny strolled towards it and broke it easily.

"Okay, time to see what's going on in the basement..." Danny said to himself as he was going ghost. He heard the sound of water swishing. He quickly turned towards the sound. The same type of gun that was in the sink is now towering over the toilet bowl, aiming at Danny. Danny pointed at the toilet bowl with one hand and covered his mouth with the other. "That is so wrong." He said as the gun prepared to fire.

In basement, choas erupt.

"Jack! You said the system was ready!" Maddie yelled at her husband as she flipped the switch to 'off'. But to her dismay, the sirens continued to blare off.

"It was ready!" Jack shouted to his wife over the siren. He began to randomly push buttons on the control panel.

"Did you program Danny's DNA into the system?" Jazz asked.

"Of course we did!" Maddie answered, joining her husband in pushing random buttons.

"Did you use Danny's ghost DNA or the DNA sample you guys made us take a couple of years ago?" Jazz asked again. It had just dawned on Jack and Maddie that they did not get a sample of Danny's ghost DNA. Maddie slapped herself in the face.

"Of course! How stupid of us, using the old DNA samples." Maddie said more to herself than to her husband. "Jack, we gotta turn this off before it seriously hurts Danny! Where's the emergency shut-off switch?" Jack looked at his wife quizingly, then sheepishly smile.

"Uh...about the emergency shut-off switch..." Jack began.

"You forgot to install it?!" Maddie yelled.

"I thought we won't be needing it..." Jack mumbled to himself. Maddie threw her hands up in the air.

"Great, just great. Now how are we gonna shut this thing off?" Maddie asked. Suddening, the lights went out and the siren was silenced. A couple of seconds later the lights came back on, but the system was off.

"Ahem." Someone cleared their throat, causing Jack, Maddie, and Jazz to turn towards the sound. Danny leaned against the wall and was casually pointing to the breakers.

"Well, that's one way to shut it off..." Jazz said aloud.

"Danny, are you alright?" Maddie asked her baby boy as she rushed at him.

"I'm fine, Mom." Danny replied quickly, keen to avoid his mother's famous bear hug. "I need to get going..."

"And where do you think you're going?" Asked his mother.

"I promised Sam and Tucker that we'll hang out today." Danny replied, making his way to the stairs. Jack suddenly appeared in front of the stairs, blocking Danny's way.

"Not until you've cleaned the lab, young man." Jack told his son. Danny turned around, his jaw dropped.

The lab was in complete disarray. Beakers were either overfilled or broken. Test tubes were absolutely filthy from who-knows-what. Gas was leaking from the Spector-Speeder. Ghost hunting equipment was spawled around the room. There were coffee stains on the counters and the tiled flooring. The garbage cans were overfilled and trash littered around the lab in little piles. And, most importantly, Jack's action figures were covered in ecto-plasmic goo. Danny felt outraged at this unfair, impossible task.

"What!?" He shouted. "Why me?" He asked his parents.

"Do you really want us to answer that?" Maddie said darkly. Some silence...

"Y-e-s..." Danny answered caustiously.

"Let's see here, you've lied to us."

"You broke your curfew several times." Jack added in.

"Yeah, but that was because I was hunting ghosts!" Danny tried to tell his dad. "And Jazz was out past her curfew too!"

"Hey!" Jazz squealed at her younger brother. "Don't bring me into this!"

"You kept secrets from us." Maddie went on.

"You also got into trouble with the authorties." Jack chided in.

"And so did you." Danny said misbery.

"And you are irresponsible." Maddie concluded. That really got Danny to snap.

"Irresponsible? How am I irresponsible?!" Danny shouted/asked his parents. "I've been doing nothing but protecting this town since I got my powers!"

"Minus some pranks." Jazz chided in. Danny shot Jazz a glare before turning back to his parents.

"Okay, I did some pranks...but I didn't do what Vlad did." That statement made his parents flinch-for it was a very touchy topic. "Yeah, I could've used my powers for my self and my own needs. But I decided to use them for good, for the better of this city, heck, this world!" Danny sighed. "Dad, Mom. Please, can I hang out with Sam and Tucker today? You know how busy Tucker has been since he was nomiated mayor, this may be the one time this week, maybe this month, that we could all hang out together. I swear I'll clean up the lab later today. So, please? Pretty, pretty, pretty please? Can I just hang out with Sam and Tucker until dinner tonight?" Danny gave them his best puppy-dog stare. His parents glanced at each other before nodding.

"Yesss!" Danny exclaimed as he lept into the air, transforming into a ghost. "Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" He cheered as he gaved each of his shocked parents a ghostly hug. "I promise I'll be back home for dinner!" He shouted as he fazed through the lab's wall.

"Good thing we bought the 10 o'clock showing." Sam said through her cell. Danny sheeplishly grinned.

"Hey, I'm going as fast as I can here!" Danny said into the phone as he flew over Amity Park. He was still a good way's from the movie theather that they planned to go to.

"Can we go in yet?" Danny heard Tucker say from the other side of the phone.

"No." Sam said, she voice split between the phone and Tucker. Danny chuckled.

"What are you laughing for?" Sam asked; half irritated, half amused.

"Nothing." Danny said quickly. "You can tell Tucker that-"

"Danny..." Said a deep, booming voice, interupting Danny. Danny flinched at the voice, for it was loud.

"Tell Tucker what?" Sam asked.

"Sam?"

"Yeah?"

"Didn't you hear that?"

"Hear what?"

"Danny..." The voice said again.

"That." Danny said, flinching more severely because of the loudness of the voice. It was as if someone was yelling inside his eardrums.

"Danny...Fenton..." The voice continued loudly. Danny felt his ears popping.

"Danny? What's wrong?" Sam asked. Danny could barely hear her.

"Sam-"

"Danny...Phantom..." The voice boomed so loud that Danny let go of his cell so that he could cover his ears with his hands.

The cell began its descent towards the cement street below Danny.

"Danny?" Sam asked once more before the phone crashed into the ground, breaking into little pieces.

Okay so here's the First Chapter ^^

Just to warn ya ahead of time I have an obsession with dream meanings. I believe that certain dreams are like premotitions (although I never seem to have any X( ). And I apologize for the terrible spelling and grammar. For someone who's in AP English, I just plain suck at Grammar...oh well :D
