Every NCIS agent stared in shock as the white headed teenager looked up at Tony, green blood dripping onto the ground from his chest. "I'm sorry Uncle Tony." He said before his arms gave out on him, and be passed out on the ground. Gasps could be heard from all four of them as white rings formed around Danny Phantom, and in his place was Danny Fenton.
"Danny." Tony rushed to the teen, thinking of nothing else but that he was alive, and not in the car. "Oh, thank God." Tony lifted Danny's untouched shirt, but saw no cut. On a whim he also took off the bandage on his arm, seeing the cut was also no longer there, and not even a scar remained. He turned the boy over, and picked him up bridal style. "He's unharmed. I don't undrestand. How are he and Phantom the same person?" Tony said.
They walked back to the car, which was no longer burning. A LEO walked up to Gibbs. "Sir, we put the fire out, but haven't got the chance to look for anyone." He said.
Gibbs held up his hand. "No need. No one was in the car. He managed to get out in time." He said, pointing to Danny, who was sleeping in Tony's arms. "He's fine, and uninjured." Gibbs said. "Just a little tired, that's all."
"Okay Special Agent Gibbs." The LEO said. "One thing though. The car appeared to be sliced up before it exploded, if that makes any sense."
Reaper and his scythe instanly came to everyone's mind. "It does actually. Danny must have seen whoever sliced up the car, and got out before he could get hurt. We found him a few blocks away, unconscious. He hasn't been hurt at all." Gibbs said, lying easily. He then walked back to the spot where Danny landed, and saw that the green blood was gone. "Where did it go?" He asked himself. He walked back to the rest of his team. "The green blood is gone." He told them.
"Gone? But where did it go?" McGee asked.
"It doesn't last long outside my body." Everyone looked at Danny, who was waking up now. "It is called ectoplasm. It's suposed to be what ghosts are made of. In my human form, my blood has trace amounts of it, but in my ghost form, my blood is pure ectoplasm, with trace amounts of human blood. If you looked at my blood through a microscope, my blood would look normal to a point. You will see some bits of rgreen, and it glows. I can't explain it though." Danny said, still trying to clear his head.
Tony, seeing this, didn't put him down. "Are you okay Danny?" He asked.
"I'm okay Uncle Tony. I'm sorry I lied to you, but even my parents didn't know." Danny said, looking at Tony.
"Don't apologize. It's a sign of weakness." Gibbs said.
"Yeah right. Not where I come from. Saying sorry means you have the strength to admit you were wrong." Danny said. "You can put he down now Unlce Tony. I need to sit down instead of lay."
Tony put Danny on the ground. "Madison and Jack didn't know you were Danny Phantom?" He asked.
"No. A few times they knew, but I have my ways of taking memories." Danny said. "It's a lot easier to do things if people don't know my human side. Sam, Tucker, and Jazz knew about me, and so did the fruit-loop, Vlad Masters, Amity's mayor."
"How did you take their memories?" Gibbs asked.
"I have my ways. Things are different than what you think. The world has a lot of mysteries, and I am one of them. I was going to hide it from you all long as I could, but Reaper made that hard. The portal he was talking about does work Gibbs. It's a portal to the ghost zone. The ghost zone is where ghosts are suposed to live. Reaper wants the portal, so he can consume their ecto-energy, and become stronger. My parents are ghosts, and they live in the ghost zone. I hope they move on soon. The Marine's ghost in the morgue has moved on, and the Marine you just found, his ghost has also moved on. And I did smirk every time Abby freaked out. Some people can feel a ghost's presence, and Abby could feel it stronger than most. A lot of people who can feel it, can't feel mine unless I let them, but Abby could. I've never had anyone try to ward me off before. I smirked bacause I thought it was funny. Everytime I go near Abby, I'll have to hide my ghostly aura until she gets used to it, so it doesn't give her a heart attack. I don't want to kill someone by scaring them to death. I don't want to kill anyone period." Danny said, starting to stand. His chest hurt a little, but he knew that wouldn't last long. He had had worse injuries before.
"Are you okay?" Ziva asked, catching Danny as he started to stuble.
"Yeah, I'm okay. I've had worse. I'm feeling better. It wouldn't be so bad if I hadn't been so high up when I fell." Danny said, shrugging Ziva off to come to a complete stand. "I'm sorry about your car Gibbs. Reaper went a little crazy with his scythe. He was trying to kill me. I really wish he would leave me alone." Dany said.
"Is there anything we can do?" McGee asked.
"Want to hunt a ghost?" Danny asked. "I have enough ghost hunting equipment for all of you back at Uncle Tony's apartment."
"There's ghost hunting stuff at my apartment? Where?" Tony asked.
"In my bag. And what I was doing this morning, was scoping out the whole building. I can sense humans, and ghosts. Your building is free of ghosts. I was trying to see how far I could make it go. I only slept a few hours last night. I went to see my parents, and explain to them what happened. I also told them I was Danny Phantom. My dad didn't seem to be too happy to be the one thing he hunted down in his life." Danny said. "And when you were talking to Gibbs, Ziva, and McGee yesterday, I went to Amity Park to see Sam and Tucker."
"How did you do that?" Tnoy asked.
"I can teleport." Danny said. "I would show you, but I'm still weak."
"How did you get these powers?" Gibbs asked, then saw that he was needed else where. "Let's finish this when we get back to headquarters." He said, walking off, with McGee and Ziva following.
"I'm really sorry I worried you Uncle Tony. I heard you screaming for me." Danny said.
"It's okay Danny. I was worried about you. I thought you were dead. I thought I'd lost you. I've only known you for two days, but I've gotten used to you already." Tony hugged Danny, who hugged him back.
"I love you Uncle Tony." Danny said.
"I love you too Danny." Tony said.
A few hours later, everyone went back to NCIS headquarters. They went up to a conference room to talk in privacy. "Okay Danny. How did you become a ghost?" Gibbs asked.
"I'm only half ghost. When my parents built the portal, it didn't work at first. I went in to look at it after Sam urged me to. Some idiot put the on switch on the inside of the portal. I hit it by mistake, and woke up with ghost powers. I wasn't able to control them at first, but as I got older, I was able to get control of them." Danny said.
"What all can you do?" Gibbs asked. Danny started to list off what all he could do. Some he was able to show them, but some he wasn't. "How long have you had these powers?"
"About three years. I got them when I was fourteen." Danny said.
"And you've kept it from you family this whole time?" Ziva asked.
"Yep. I did it to protect them. If they didn't know, they couldn't try and stop me." Danny said. "I was going to help people, whether they liked it or not. Not even being named public enemy #1 was going to stop me." Danny shrugged. "I didn't care much what people thought about me. I did want them to like me, but if they didn't, then that wasn't going to stop me. Someone had to stop the ghosts the portal let out. My parents wheren't that good at it. My mom was, but my dad couldn't catch a cold." Danny smiled.
"How do we stop Reaper?" Gibbs asked.
"We have to get him to move on. I can force him to, but only if we can get him to stay in my sights, and be as still as possible for about five minutes. Do you think you can help me get him to stay still that long?" Danny asked. He had found out a few months ago, that he could force a ghost to move on if he could get them to sit still long enough.
"I think we can." Gibbs said. "But how?"
"With the weapons my parents made. Tonight, we will set out to capture Reaper, and force him to move on. We will all meet at Tony's at midnight, after you all get some sleep." Danny said. Everyone nodded. "And Uncle Tony?" Tony looked at Danny. "Would you like to meet your sister after all this is over?" He asked.
"Yeah, but how? You said she was a ghost." Tony asked.
"Human's can travel the ghost zone. My parents built a machine to help with that. It's like a plane and boat all in one." Danny said.
"Okay. I would love to." Tony said. "Would you all like to meet my sister?" He asked his team mates.
They all agreed it would be nice to meet them.
Happy Valentine's Day. I hope you like this. I write, even if I'm in pain. I had to go to the dentist, and my gums and teeth hurt. This shows just how much I love you all, and I do love you all.
