Summary: Daniel 'Danny' Fenton is sad after his twin brother, Dennis 'Denny' Fenton, dies. He feels alone for the first time. But then, at midnight on the same day Denny died but a year after, Danny doesn't feel so alone anymore.
Daniel 'Danny' Fenton was a pale black haired boy with icy blue eyes. He was born to Madeline 'Maddie' Fenton and Jack Fenton, they both worked for some secret government organization. His parents weren't home often. It was normally just him, his sister Jasmine 'Jazz' Fenton, and his older twin brother Dennis 'Denny' Fenton. But now, Denny was gone.
Danny and Denny were best of friends. They even refused to make friends so that they could spend as much time together as possible. Denny and Danny weren't identical, Denny having dark brown hair and bright green eyes instead of black and blue. Denny was also taller then Danny, and stronger. However, Danny was quicker and really smart. Most of the time, Danny his his smartness so it would be a secret weapon.
One night, Denny and Danny were playing in the snow. A car accidentally slid off the road...and it hit four-year-old Denny. Denny died that day.
It was now a year after that terrible day...it was midnight...so it was Christmas. Denny had died on Christmas a year ago. Danny had spent yesterday crying his eyes out because Danny had never been alone on Christmas. Denny was always there to make the arguing of their parents better. Now, he wasn't.
Danny was on the bottom bed of their bunk bed. The bottom had been where Denny had slept. They would always sleep together on Christmas Eve.
"Denny..." Danny said through his sobs.
Danny still had no friends. It would have been rube for him to break their promise.
The black haired boy curled up in his lost brother's blankets. For some reason, the room had gotten colder.
"Danny...make some friends, for me, okay?"
Danny looked around the room for the source of the voice. It sounded a lot like his brother's, just with an echo. Was Denny a...ghost?
"Denny?" asked Danny.
"I'm here. Promise me you'll make some friends, okay? Please Danny. For me."
Danny was sure of it, Denny was talking to him. "Are you a ghost?" asked Danny.
"Yes Danny. I am. I'll be watching you, okay? But right now, you have to promise me that you'll make some friends for me. For us."
"I will Denny."
A boy faded into visibility. He had white skin, almost white icy blue eyes with no other color, dark blue hair, and he wore a white shirt and black shorts. But Danny knew who it was.
The ghost in front of him was Denny.
Denny gave his twin brother a hug before he faded from visibility. Danny's parents slammed open the door.
"Danny-boy, the ghost radar picked up a ghost!" said Danny's mother.
"Yeah, trying to attack us on Christmas, isn't it? I bet it'll try and stop Santa!" said Danny's father.
His parents argued over the existence or not of Santa while Danny chucked. The ghost wasn't going to attack them. It was silly to think that all ghosts were evil.

Danny was now fourteen. He was inside the ghost portal because his friend, Sam, had convinced him to do in. To be honest, Danny wanted to see if he could find his brother. Danny remembered the white skinned blue haired ghost that had visited him a year after his death and made him promise to find some friends.
Danny had found two friends. Tucker Foley and Sammantha 'Sam' Manson. It was dark in the ghost portal, and for some reason, he felt safe. He also felt as if he needed to put his hand on the wall. So he did. His hand pushed a button, the 'on' button. It was stupidly put inside.
Electricity zapped him and ectoplasm rushed into his body, mutating his DNA. Danny felt like he was going to die. Danny's eyes were wide open, but he couldn't see anything other then ectoplasm and electricity.
"Danny..."
That was his brother's voice. Danny could make out the blurry figure of his ghostly brother farther in the portal.
"Get out!"
Before Danny could think, Danny followed his brother's orders and he landed on his back on the floor of the lab.
This have Danny time to think. Denny had looked older. Like he was fourteen too. Could ghosts age? A scream interrupted his thoughts and Danny's eyes opened. He got to his feet and looked down at himself.
His jumpsuit's colors were flopped. Now it was mostly black. He quickly ran to a computer and looked at his reflection. His hair had turned white and his eyes had turned green. The green reminded him of his brother's eyes when he was alive.
"Danny?" asked Sam.
"Am I dead?" Danny asked. His voice had the same echo that his brother's had.
"Only half."
It wasn't Tucker or Sam who had said that. His brother had spoken to him, and Danny didn't think that his two friend. Had heard him.

Danny was now fifteen. He walked through the cemetery and stopped at his brother's gravestone. A blue mist escaped Danny's mouth.
"Denny?" Danny asked hopefully.
His ghost brother phased up through the ground in front of the stone.
"Hi Danny!" the ghost said cheerfully. The twins hugged for a minute.
"Sooo...thanks." said Danny.
"What for?" asked Denny.
"You told me to get out of the ghost portal. Clockwork told me that if I had stayed in the portal for longer then I would have been fully dead. So you saved half of my life. Plus there have been sightings of a new ghost around. With dark blue hair and white-blue eyes with white skin wearing a red sleeveless shirt under a black jacket and black pants with a green belt and silver boots. That's exactly what you look like. You've been trying to help me by attacking the ghosts that come into town." Said Danny.
"Yup! I wanna be a superhero too! Denny Phantom, what so you think? Also, do you think mom and dad will finally realize that you're their son?" asked Danny.
Danny laughed and put his arm around Denny. "Well looks like a plan. Do you know how to fight?" asked Danny.
"Let's see...I'm your brother and I've been watching you...sorry if that sounds creepy. But, yeah. I spent a lot of time watching classes on how to fight and stuff like that. I've also been training...so I can be my little brother's sidekick."
Both boys laughed at that. "Alright, now, Mr. Phantom, how about we find a ghost for you to demonstrate your skills on?" said Danny. Danny transformed into Danny Phantom.
"After you Mr. Phantom." said Denny.
The two boys flew off.
The Box Ghost was trying to scare people in the park. Trying. He was waving around a lunch box 'of death' while a few other lunch boxes floated in the air. No was was really scared.
Sam and Tucker were waiting for their friend, the halfa Danny Fenton/Phantom. Tucker rolled his eyes as Box Ghost shouted 'beware' again.
"Boxy! Perfect!" shouted Danny Phantom, a few people were confused at this.
"Wow. The Box Ghost. I'm so scared." the ghost beside Danny Phantom said sarcastically.
"Yes, you should be! Now who are you?" asked Box Ghost.
"I'm Denny Phantom! His older twin brother." Denny pointed at Danny.
The Fenton parents, who had just arrived, froze.
They watched next to Sam and Tucker in confusion. They were all confused.
The battle didn't take long. Denny had water powers and had used the fountain water to take the boxes away from the Box Ghost. Danny had frozen the water to keep the boxes in place. They had sucked the Box Ghost into the Fenton thermos.
"Hey, Phantoms!" yelled Maddie.
The two ghosts turned to their parents.
"Can we meet you at our house?" asked Maddie.
"Uhh...sure. But if this is a trap then I'll be forced to reveal the truth." said Danny.
"Danny, no!" Said both Sam and Tucker.
"Don't worry. I'll be fine." said Danny.

Danny and Denny were sitting on the couch. Jazz walked past and gave them a confused look. Then, Maddie and Jack walked in.
"Wow, they got here before us!" said Jack.
Jazz was majorly confused.
"Hi Jazzy! You're annoying! Sorry, I just didn't get to tell you that when I was alive." said Denny.
"Uhhh...what?" asked Jazz.
"So you are our Denny?" asked Maddie.
"Totally! Oh, and Danny Fenton is half ghost and Danny Phantom." said Denny.
"Half...ghost?" asked Maddie.
Danny transformed into Fenton.
Maddie fainted, but was caught by Jack.
"...wow. Both of our twins are ghost hero... Just like a Fenton would be! Minus the ghost and half-ghost part...but you're totally fine!" said Jack.
"They accept me!" said Danny. Danny hugged his brother.
Sam and Tucker busted open the door.
"We demand to know everything!" They yelled.
"I'm Danny's older twin brother. Only I died when I was four years old on Christmas. Now I'm Denny Phantom, a new superhero!"
"You died...on Christmas...well that gives us another reason why Danny hates Christmas." said Tucker.
