Notes: When Dan is in Danny's teen form, I'll still refer to him as Dan.

Last Chapter: Dan created a portal to the Ghost Zone and grabbed Danny. Dan turned into Danny's teen from. He was about to throw Danny inside, when an ecto-blast hit him in the back. It threw off his balance, and Danny fell into the Ghost Zone. Danielle appeared, she drew back her arm as the glow went out.

Enraged at her, Dan went back to his own form. He fired a shot at her. It hit her square on. She fell back and flickered for several moments. She slowly lifts her arm, now with several cuts and bruises on it. She pushed the button on her watch and disappeared.

Dan smirked. He returned to Danny's human form.

Dan, in Danny's teen form, walked around the Nasty Burger. Sam and Tucker ran up to him. "Danny!" Sam ran up. Before Sam reached him, she stopped, she looked as if she was in thought. As quick as she stopped, she headed toward Danny gain. She gave him a hug.

"Did you beat that jerky older version of yourself?" Tucker asked.

"Always with the quips, you know, in my weaker moments I often miss your dull sense of humor." Tucker glanced at him. "Ah, I'm just kidding, I had you going there for a second. I beat my older self quite easily."

"Oh, well, then we should probably make sure that Nasty Burger doesn't explode."

"Already take care of, now who's up for…" Dan mumbled "What did we used to do together.." "Playing video games and raging against the machine."

"We're in." Sam and Tucker said.

Once at Danny's house, Dan went upstairs. "Tucker…there's something I've gotta tell you."

"Okay, what is it?"

"You know how when we saw Danny, I hesitated to go up to him…"

"Yeah.."

"Well, Danielle, told me something in my mind. She said that that is Dan imposing as Danny."

"What! He is!" Sam nodded while she shushed Tucker.

"Yes, but we can't let him know that we know that."

They saw Jazz head up to Danny's room. No doubt to talk to Dan about the CAT's test. "Should we stop her?" Tucker asked.

Sam sighed, "No, let her go."

Upstairs it was a different story. "You're not Danny. No wonder the Boomerang wasn't homing in on your ecto signal, you're not Danny!"

"I was, but I grew out of it. The Danny you know is floating helplessly in the Ghost Zone 10 years into the future."

"He'll escape, he'll beat you!"

"How! Is the answer A the Fenton Portal, destroyed it. Is it B is it the one my cheese head arch-enemy has. As soon as I find that one it's going too."

"Cheese head? Vlad Masters is your arch-enemy?"

"Is it C, you? No you can't stop me from cheating on the test and solidifying my future. So the answer must be D! None of the above." He fired at Jazz, but something made it miss her. Dan growled. He knew either Black Angel or Danielle had to be around somewhere. Only they could've done that.

"SHOW YOURSELF!" Dan was done playing their games. Instead of her materializing, she blasted him. He was blown backwards, making him think it was Black Angel that was there. But when she did appear, it was just Danielle. Dan growled at her, no 14 year old was gonna show him up!

"You're time is up you little brat!"

She lifts an eyebrow. "Riiight sure whatever you say."

"Black Angel shouldn't be around!"

"Let me guess, cuz I should've died in that accident."

"You're darn right you were supposed to. And now Black Angel is still alive."

"She's never done anything to you. Besides, last time I checked, if she did die, you would've too."

Dan went silent. He knew she was right. But at that moment that the others died, all he wanted was to die also. Ever since he got ghost powers it bonded him to his twin for life. They both got powers and something happened that made it so they needed each other more than usual. Like, the blast he gave her in the future hurt him as much as he was sure it hurt her. It was a deadly strong blast and nearly knocked her out. But he kept that from happening, just a flicker was all that happened. The only reason he acted on mercy now was now, he didn't want to die and killing her would mean certain death for him as well.

Danielle knew all too well the truth to this. Clockwork had told her all about it. How the accident that gave them ghost powers also tied them together. She watched on as Dan seemed to be having a mental argument with himself. The test answers laid disregarded on the floor. Danielle knew that soon her future counterpart would show up with the 14 year old Danny. 10 years taught her negotiating tactics and they always won the fight. Mind over strength won every time. The name Black Angel was what Dan had called her right after the explosion.

He claimed that had she not been around they wouldn't be tied together in a life line and he would've die too. Always said a world of misery could've been avoided had she, the Black Angel not been around. A curse and a blessing all at once. For the first few weeks he wanted nothing to do with her. But, once Vlad had interfered, and gave Danny a second chance, with no human emotions. He became glad she hadn't died. It gave him a chance to take out his vengeance on those that wronged him and possibly contributed to the accident that ruined his life.

It was then Danielle, now Black Angel rejoined Clockwork. The once loving, caring Danny was gone, a thing of the past. Now the only thing to hope for would be a chance to steer him right again. She knew it could be done. It took 10 years for her to develop the right tactics to win him back, but she knew it would be well worth it. Him trying to change the past made it all the more perfect for the plan to work out. To work it out so that the accident never even happened.
