Danny and Dani were in the middle of the cove that Hiccup had meat Toothless at training on their own time. Dani sent a powerful ectoblast towards Danny who easily raised a green shield that blocked it, though it did crack a bit. This was something that the two halfa's found interesting, they were more powerful but their shields were almost indestructible. Though one attack that they both had could break it down and the best thing was they could now use it without being drained of power. That was their ghostly wail, which they didn't practice unless they knew it was safe to do so, and surprisingly it was at the moment.

Around them the signs of winter was now visible as the regular trees became bear and the water started to frost over. For a while the two sent attacks toward each other and dodged them along side blocking one or two of them. Though every now and then they sent either an ice or electric blast toward the other who was able to shrug it off with ease. Another neat trick they could make a blast that if it hit something they didn't intend for it to, the thing just left some light scorch marks. If it hit it's target though that target would get hit with it full force, and with some practice they were able to generate their own form of heat seeking projectiles. This was alright and thanks to an idea from their time with Atlas watching TV they were experimenting with ecto-bending as it were.

This made it easy to redirect any attack that was sent at them that used ecto-energy, but it wasn't that strong yet and still drained too much power from them. "Hey Danny, have you noticed that Hiccup has been slightly distracted lately and giving the two of us weird looks?" Dani spoke while briefly catching a glimpse of Mink who was off to the side watching the spar with each other. They were in human form at the moment and as soon as Dani asked that question Danny had started to slow down before speaking. "Yeah… I think something must be on his mind, I mean he looked like he saw a ghost due to the nightmares he's been having lately."

With that the two halfa's finally came to a halt sweating due to exerting themselves and with this they went on over to where Mink was and sat down just as the mini dragon came over to them and got on Dani's shoulder. For a moment all was quiet as the two of them took deep slow breaths to get their hearts under control until something that was a very dark blue landed in front of them. They were instantly on alert and feeling a bit sad upon seeing that it was Hiccup on Toothless as the viking teen looked around.

"I could of swore I saw… never mind bud, let's get going I want to find them before it get's any later and ask them a question about Phantom and this weird Dread King." Almost instantly the two halfa's were upon Hiccup startling the teen and dragon with their eyes wide open in shock and spoke at the same time. "HOW DO YOU KNOW ABOUT PARIAH DARK AND THAT PHANTOM HAD A CONNECTION TO HIM?" Instantly Toothless jumped out of fear and almost blasted the two, emphasis on almost for upon seeing the two the dragon calmed down a bit.

Hiccup on the other hand was clutching his chest with his hand, having gone very pale upon seeing the two of them jump at him, even Mink was in surprise upon it happening. "I… I… I had… a strange dream about it last night… the name stuck and… you can figure out the rest." Right away Danny looked at Dani and both of them gave a look that could scare even the bravest of vikings. The scrawny teen almost regretted asking that question upon seeing the look they were giving each other, it wasn't anger or pain, but one of pure fear. The dragons even shivered a bit remembering their reaction to eels as it were for that was the type of fear the two halfa's were giving each other. No sooner than this happened than Danny took in a deep breath and in a low voice that sent shivers up everyone's spines spoke.

"The Dread King or Pariah Dark… is a legend spread throughout our village Hiccup… before anyone, even dragon was born he ruled over a world parallel to our own. This world was known as the Ghost Zone or as you would call it the Demon Zone for it was that Pariah Dark was a ghost or demon. With his Crown of Fire and Ring of Rage he held the Ghost Zone in an iron grip and almost brought our world to it's knees. All who dared challenge him were destroyed, even some that just dared to look at him at the wrong time."

By now Hiccup and everyone else had moved over to a cliff were setting down and Dani upon noticing Danny's hesitation spoke in a voice similar to his. "The Crown of Fire and Ring of Rage gave him power on their own, but together with both items they gave him power that made him even stronger than the gods themselves. So in one last ditched effort to defeat him seven ancient and powerful ghosts teamed up together to overthrow him. The following battle was great, but in the end all they could do was remove the Ring of Rage from him and seal him in a Sarcophagus of Forever Sleep. There he would sleep until someone foolish would release him in an effort to gain the items of power for themselves."

Toothless, Mink, and Hiccup were wrapped in fascination and horror as to what they were hearing as Danny took over again. "This ghost was known as Vlad Plasmius, and he was Danny Phantoms arch enemy as it would be. Pariah Dark easily beat the foolish ghost, but Plasmius managed to get away with the Ring of Rage. He then tricked my family into protecting him, before giving the ring to someone else for safe keeping, until Pariah's army attacked." With that the halfa's went quiet both of them remembering what happened as Hiccup spoke up. "What… what happened?"

Almost instantly Hiccup regretted this as Danny spoke up again his voice if possible even colder and creepier than before. "The army overwhelmed our village and in a matter of seconds and their leader a ghost known as Fright Knight had managed to secure his sword in the ground. A while after while in a fight with Plasmius, Phantom being foolish brought the sword out of the ground only to find out that it was a signal. This proved to be bad for the entire village was sucked into the Ghost Zone, and it was there that Pariah Dark took his ring back."

Danny paused and looked at Dani asking her to finish for him and she spoke, dread in her voice the entire time. "After a bit though Phantom learned about a type of armor that our parents had built that would increase anyone's power 100 times beyond what it currently was. But… it had one draw back, the armor was powered by the wearers own life force and as such no one living or dead could use it. Knowing this Phantom stole the suit, and after climbing into it went on to fight the hardest battle that there ever was."

Danny let out a sigh as his eye's hardened to stone and looking at him Hiccup could see his eye's glow softly green in the shade of the cliff. "Somehow Phantom had convinced all his enemies to join him despite how scared they were and while they held off the army he went to battle the king on his own." Everyone was quiet as Danny's eyes continued to give off a slight glow and Dani squeaked upon seeing it, but said nothing as he continued. "That one fight was beyond anything Phantom had faced before and during that fight Pariah Dark said that Phantom couldn't win no matter how hard he tried. As such he replied saying that he didn't need to win that fight, he just needed to make sure that the king lost, and with that he blasted a hole into the wall revealing the Sarcophagus of Forever Sleep on the other side."

Hiccup caught his breath upon hearing this and his eyes went wide along with Toothless and Mink's as they all stared disbelievingly at Danny for multiple reasons. But the hafla didn't stop as his eye's became milky as he relived the whole thing in his mind and with that Danny continued. "Using the last of his energy Phantom forced the Dread King into the Sarcophagus and using his newest power to duplicate hold the thing shut. The suit was draining his power faster than he could regenerate it, and right as all seemed lost the thing was locked. In his last moments of consciousness he saw all his enemies including Plasmius standing over him and in the most surprising act ever the fallen kings general put the crown on his head due to it being knocked off Pariah's head sometime during the entire fight."

Danny paused again as he looked at everyone else his eye's now a mix of green and blue before speaking. "With that Pariah Dark's second reign came to an end before it even truly began, later on the suit was destroyed after it fell into Plasmius' hands. The crown and ring disappeared though sometime after and have not been seen sense, and Phantom in his own regards became a legend. That one fight made many people see that he was truly a hero, and not an evil being, no… he was and forever is a hero that will sacrifice himself to protect those that he cares about from harms way."

With that said Danny's eyes turned back to it's regular blue color rather slowly, and the almost invisible white glow around him disappeared as well. For a moment though they said nothing as all of this set in on Hiccup who now looked at the two halfa's in surprise before speaking. "Wait… you said that no one dead or alive could possibly use the armor… how was Phantom able to use it than?" With that Danny and Dani looked at each other for a moment before speaking at the same time again as they drifted off to a far away place. "Hiccup… the explanation is simple… Danny Phantom… isn't truly dead or alive, he's a… halfa's half human half ghost, half alive and half dead, bound to walk between two worlds and… his power is still growing."

A cold wind then passed through the cove as as the two halfa's went deep into their memories just as someone spoke to Hiccup who was the only one to hear it. "As you see Hiccup, Danny has taken down gods and as such could be called one himself and as such is in some area's. Though he won't like it, that is the truth and that's why I am keeping him safe, that is also why you need him to tell you that he is Phantom. Dani is just as important though, for she was as for better lack of the word born with these powers while Danny was given them in an accident." Instantly the viking teen knew that it was Atlas who was speaking to him and looking at the two halfa's contemplated on whether to speak or not.

Toothless and Mink though both curled up a bit shivering after they heard this bit of news just as Hiccup spoke up. "That… that much power in one being… how could anyone hold that much power and stay good… how do you hold it together Danny." Almost instantly the two snapped back to reality as Hiccup realized what he had said and mentally cursed himself as the male halfa spoke apparently not realizing what his friend had said. "I don't know Hiccup… I truthfully don't know how it's done, but… I know for fact that he's not fighting for himself. No… I fight to protect others, and am willing to lie my life on the line just to keep all those that I care about safe… I am Phantom Hiccup… I am Phantom."

Danny now realizing what he said sat in shocked silence as Dani held her breath out of fear just as Hiccup spoke. "Well glad that we got that out of the way then… so what exactly are your powers and why did you keep all of this hidden?" That snapped both of their heads to look at Hiccup in shock really and almost instantly Dani spoke up. "Wait… you're not surprised by this, and you're just believing it without asking for him to prove it?" The viking teen looked at the young female halfa for a moment his face blank before responding. "Well… yeah, I mean I talked to Atlas your protector who, told me about your powers shortly after seeing Danny change into a dragon. He also told me to just ask you about Pariah Dark… and now that I think of it I'm going to faint with fear upon hearing that story any second now."

No sooner that Hiccup said this than he promptly passed out from fear as Toothless darted to catch his friend. For a moment there was nothing as the two halfa's just stared at their fainted friend before hearing someone clearing their throat. Turning their heads they saw that standing behind them was none other than Atlas who was floating in the air and looking down at Hiccup before speaking. "Next time… I suggest that you at least try to be a bit less creepy with that story, and now… let's get you all home it's almost sunset." Instantly the dragons and halfa's were alert that the sun had started to fall beyond the horizon and with that they all started to head home.

Atlas was quiet as he walked behind them all keeping an eye on Danny's sword, and taking note of one of Dani's daggers that were visible at least. That the moment though they were both having a mental conversation with each other until Atlas decided to speak. "You do know that, you can't really have a private conversation when there is another telepath in the area right? Anyways, no I can't tell you why I told Hiccup about this, if I do it runs the chance of things not working out in the future. Danny, Dani… I need the two of you at the top of your game and soon hence why I told Hiccup about this."

With that Atlas went quiet as he looked at Hiccup on Toothless' back obviously knocked out before speaking to the dragon. "Don't worry Toothless the three of us mean you no harm, but… my plans involve keeping everyone alive to the best of my ability. Now I must get going and do keep an eye on the two halfa's for me, because they are the key to my plan alongside you and Hiccup." Danny and Dani looked at Atlas as he gave a simple military salute with two fingers before disappearing in a cloud of smoke leaving them behind. For a moment they just glared at the spot he once was wishing they could do something to that ghost in return for this.

Atlas was now behind one of the rocks in the Ghost Zone keeping an eye on Vlad Masters while his duplicates went about other business. Basically he was spying on a ghost that was spying on him, and in a way it was kind of weird spying on a spy. So far his duplicate had made a stop in Pandora's kingdom for a small sparring match against her, much to the greek ghosts surprise until noticing what was going on. The fight accidentally burned Plasmius, and after a bit he went to Dora's domain to watch a sparring match between two knights. Right away she knew about Plasmius and the fight took a turn for the worse as she had to dodge a blast.

This caused the dragon princess to go on a rather small and targeted rampage on one Vlad Plasmius who just barely got away with his life. After this Atlas went to the Far Frozen and did some ice sculpting before accidentally freezing Vlad in a block of ice. The yeti Ghost also almost hit him with some small blasts and ice weapons that accidentally flew out of their grasps at the worst of times. All in all Vlad had unknowingly been attacked the entire time and was now rather reluctant to go closer than fifteen yards to the white haired ghost. At the moment though he was currently playing with Cujo the ghost dog that had taken a liking to Danny and as it were him as well.

He had to clutch his abdomen and cover his mouth as Vlad was chased through the Ghost Zone due to Cujo following a heat seeking ectoblast that had locked onto the evil halfa. This was the highlight of Atlas day as Vlad flew away in a desperate attempt to get away from the ball and giant ghost dog. With that in mind the full ghost wiped a tear away in happiness before letting out a sigh as he sent a duplicate to deal with the Observants. "Kill joys… always summoning me right while I'm having the time of my life practically torchering an evil ghost without them knowing about it."

Atlas' duplicate grumbled as he flew away, his legs forming a ghostly tail to allow him to fly faster threw the Ghost Zone. While he went to deal with the Observant's and ultimately Vortex the weather controlling ghost the real one decided to head back to his lair. That was until he got to the front door and saw that it was open a crack, so creeping up to it the ghost saw none other than the Box Ghost inside. A dark smile appeared on his face instantly as he grabbed a thermos from his layer via teleportation. The Box Ghost didn't even have time to shout out BEWARE! before being sucked into the metal cylinder just as the door opened with a loud bang.

Still smiling Atlas put the next part of his plan to capture Ragnarok into action before taking out a small box. His smile was one of pure evil as he uncapped the thermos and no sooner than the Box Ghost was set free he grabbed the ghost by his overalls. By the time that Atlas was done he held a neatly wrapped box with a small bow on top and a nice little letter on top. A muffled "BEWARE!" could be heard as the Box Ghost struggled inside the box as he wrote two names in Norse on the box and the letter in English. One of the things that he was glad about was that Ghost Mail could find anyone anywhere, despite not being run by any ghosts.

With that thought in mind Atlas walked toward the wall with his door and a little hole opened up in the wall. Shoving the box into the hole the ghost slammed it shut before cleaning his hands off after sending the second most annoying ghost he had ever meat to his favorite halfa's. An evil chuckle could be heard emanating from him as the ghost sat down on his couch and turned on the TV. Instead of it showing a TV show or movie it showed something else entirely that looked very similar to the Ecto-Skeleton, but with a few upgrades. With that his eyes hardened as a keyboard came out of seemingly nowhere and using it Atlas began to add more improvements to it.

Danny lied in his hammock looking at the ceiling while Dani was in hers doing the same with Mink on her stomach. The two halfa's were in deep thought as to what they were going to do about their friend Hiccup when he woke up. "Danny… please tell me you planned ahead for something like this or this is all just some big crazy dream." Almost instantly the older halfa looked up from his own place of rest to look at his younger sister and spoke. "No I don't have a plan, and I wouldn't want this to be a dream Dani… cause if it was you wouldn't be real."

That instantly made Dani stop from saying what ever she was going to say in an effort to counter Danny as he said it wasn't a dream. She knew that he cared for her greatly and that made her feel slightly warm inside, glad that her older brother cared for her. "Good point… even if I would of wanted to meet your family and friends I wouldn't exactly change this for the world." With that said the two started to drift off into a dreamless slumber unaware of the package that had just appeared in the middle of the room in a flash of white light.


crai22: Well... the next chapter should be fun what with me introducing ghosts to Hiccup and all. To think he gets the honor of meeting the one and only Box Ghost... I feel sorry for that viking now that I think of it. Though now that Hiccup is going to be meeting ghosts along with residences of Berk shortly after I have to ask... what would happen if I accidentally put Desiree in this story? Yet with Mildew around you can probably figure out that his wish would be for all dragons on Berk to disappear... and Hiccup could accidentally make a wish that he could understand Toothless.

Miota: If you combine those two wishes together it would be a horrible disaster... especially with the fact that Danny told me Desiree liked to put a twist on every wish she hears.

crai22: Uh... Miota where exactly are the two halfa's I thought I put you in charge of watching them in case something bad happened.

Miota: Relax their currently about to walk in the front door and I know this due to the two tracking devices I put in the back of the skulls when they were sleeping.

Danny & Dani: WHAT! (Glares at Miota)

Miota: (Pail considerably before ducking behind crai22)

crai22: (Stairs at two halfa's for a moment before stepping aside) He's all yours... though please do try not to make any stains on my carpet please.

Danny & Dani: (Grin evilly before dragging Miota away into random room)

crai22: Uh... before things get out of hand here please read and review people while I make sure that Miota doesn't end up in a straight jacket in an asylum for the insane. I need him for my new story I'm working on... hopefully it ends well and all this doesn't come back to bite me in the end. Also for those that don't understand Underline = dragon talk meaning that... actually that is self explanatory now I must get out of here before something bad happens and the next chapter will come with some answered question and reasons people.
