Young Danny Phantom

He was just 13

When his parents a very

Dangerous machine

It was meant to understand

The quirks unseen

When it didn't quite work

His parents just quit

So Danny took a look

Inside of it

There was a great big flash

Everything changed

His molecules got all rearranged.

When he first woke up realized

He had snow white hair and

glowing green eyes.

He could walk through walls

Disappear and fly

He was much more unique than the other guys

It was then that he knew what he had to do

He had to stop all the villains that were

Coming to

He's here to fight for me and you

Danny Fenton, the son of an American man and Japanese woman. They moved to Japan when Danny was three. The parents, Jack and Yurei Fenton. Jack's quirk is a minor strength and size enhancer (mutant) while Yurei has an intelligence booster. Jazz, Danny's older sister, also has an intelligence boosting quirk. Danny, sadly, was born quirkless. The Fenton's are well known Quirk researchers, who work with heroes and citizens alike to learn about control or improving their powers.

Right around the time Danny turned thirteen, there was a lab accident and he was given the abilities from DNA samples stockpiled in the machine.

Right now, however, Danny was to busy trying to hide his intangible arm to worry about how he got his powers. His mother hovered over a machine that was supposed to detect mutation type quirks. Jazz hid behind her book, breakfast left forgotten as she tried to dodge the sparks coming off the machine.

"Two more days and it'll be finished!" Yurei said cheerfully. Jack, with his selective hearing, practically jumped for joy and snatched it out of her hands. Jazz looked at them in disgust and held her book up higher in front of her face.

"It's done?! Great!" He switched it on. Since they'd programmed it to not detect Jack, mostly because it would be distracting during test runs, the machine picked up Danny instead. Both parents slowly made their way forward while Danny hid his arm and backed into a wall.

"Mutation type straight ahead-" the machine said.

"Well this can't be right… there must be a bug in the system!" Yurei said, taking back the machine. She began taking the back of it apart while Danny's face fell.

"Actually, there's something I need to tell you guys-"

"You don't need to tell them anything, Danny!" Jazz finally spoke up, standing from her spot and making her way over to stand between him and his parents. "Danny is at a very impressionable age and you two using him like a labrat isn't going to help any! Come on, little brother, I'll walk you to school." Danny sometimes forgot the difference between his sister's intelligence and his mother's. While Yurei had chosen to focus all her mind on machines and quirks, Jazz had learned everything she could on psychology and child development. The two siblings had been best friends until Danny was ten and started avoiding his family.

It's not that the boy hated them or anything, it's just that they are a reminder. He'd been quirkless, bullied at school for it… treated like he was worthless. Now, even though he has powers (though, admittedly, difficult to control) he couldn't tell them. If they found out a machine they built had given him powers… what would happen to him? Lab rat? Science experiment? Most kids his age worried about grades, not about being dissected by white coats- I mean scientists…

Anyways, there were always two people that Danny could rely on. The only two people in all the world besides him that knew about his strange quirks.

Sam Manson, who was also a half American who came to Japan when she was three, and Izuku Midoriya. Izuku was also quirkless, though he had a habit similar to Jazz, which made them think maybe he did have an intelligence quirk. Mumbling aloud because he can't contain it all in his head. Jazz had given him a few pointers to help break the habit that she'd done when she was younger. It helped a little bit.

Sam did have a quirk, however. She had telepathy and could hold conversations with people completely with her power. There was one condition, though, and that was that she couldn't read people's minds unless somebody let her. For Danny it felt like a small push. Instinctively, you put up a wall against it, but if you know what's going on you can drop the wall and let her in. She also had the ability to sense people's minds and emotions, but she usually tried to block it out.

Izuku's green hair caught Danny's sight and the boys hurried to greet each other. The school year would be more fun than the year before since the school finally decided to stop splitting up the girls and boys. Danny, Izuku, and Sam finally got to have all their classes together. Well, mostly.

Sam smiled as they greeted each other. She was really pushing against the dress code. Her black hair, which was, honestly, probably dyed, was cut shorter and mostly put back into a ponytail so that her earrings would show. While the uniform itself was just a black button up shirt and black pants for boys and long skirt for girls, she'd left the shirt unbuttoned to show off a black and purple half shirt underneath. She also wore purple leggings and black combat boots. Her purple lipstick matched her eyes.

Danny got a bad feeling she was gonna get in trouble for the outfit.

Danny noticed an angry- looking teacher making his way over. He recognized the teacher as their homeroom teacher, though they had yet to learn his name since there hadn't been any classes. He was obviously angry with Sam's outfit. A small nudge at Danny's mind made him open up to the telepath.

" Yo, Danny, I'm gonna get in trouble I bet-"

"No, it's fine, just cover me for a moment."

Danny hid around the corner of the building, changing as soon as he was out of everybody's sight. A black and white halo surrounded his torso, expanding up and down over his head and under his feet. His black hair turned white, blue eyes turned to a glowing green, and his school uniform disappeared in exchange for a black jumpsuit with white boots, gloves, collar, and belt. He'd noticed a few weeks ago, with help from Izuku's continuous questions, that if he attached something to his uniform and then turn back, the item would still be there. A white symbol was on his chest, courtesy of Sam's creativity.

He listened to the conversation between the teacher and Sam for a second, then turned invisible and flew over. It was new ability he'd learned thanks to Izuku's nagging.

Danny entered the teacher's body, immediately hating it. Overshadowing (as Izuku dubbed it) let him take temporary control over people. There was a tell, of course, and the teacher's eyes glowed green, but imprinting thoughts into the man was easier than dealing with a grumpy Sam.

"I mean, okay… your outfit isn't that bad, dress code wise," the teacher was forced to say. Seeing as he didn't fight against Danny, he must not have cared as much as previously thought. The words made since in the teachers mind, and Danny exited the body before it walked away.

Sam smiled. Her black choker which had been a gift from Danny for her birthday, had been taken off anyways. Jewelry was against the rules, so she decided not to push it.

"Ready to go?" Izuku said, fidgeting with something on his tablet. Sam had bought it for him right after Danny got his powers. All three kids headed inside, and Izuku didn't look up from his device until they were near the class. "Hey, Danny, y-you should look out for cameras more. You know they've got them all over the school."

Danny groaned, face palming. "I'm sorry, I didn't even think about that. Did you get it off?" Izuku smiled and nodded, motioning towards the device in his hands.
