(A/N Yup! PhantomXCode geass! Nothing is mine apart from Plot and eventual OC, Danny phantom and Code Geass belongs to their creators)
In the lush greenery of the Aries villa, located at the heart of the mighty Holy Britannian Empire, are the melody of laughing and playing children, the tone of the place seemed peaceful, serene, a place of calmness and beauty.
Peeking through the myriad of exotic trees and plant life, we see a group of 5 children running around, playing a game of tag, off to the side painting was another child, another this time a woman around 20 years old stoically watching over the other children.
As if guarding them if ever one may come to harm's way.
"Nunnally! Wait up!" yelled a young 7-year-old boy with black hair and piercing blue eyes of sapphire, he was wearing a green suit and pants with black shoes.
"Come on Danny! Euphie!" yelled the young 7-year-old Nunnally, her hair was brown and curly, giving her amethyst purple eyes a cuter and more alluring feel. Her adorable pink dress with frills just adds to her innocents that only a child can have.
"I'll get you Nunna!" Yelled a girl, Euphemia with pink hair and the same amethyst purple eyes though hers closely resembled lavender, eyes that shone with kindness and gentleness, rare for the world outside the Aries Villa. Like Nunnally she wore a lavender dress with frills.
"How can they be so fast?!" an older boy, around 10 years old with black hair, was tailing the three leading children, like Euphemia and Nunnally, he has amethyst purple eyes, but unlike them, his eyes shone with intelligence and a hint of arrogance, but there was also great care in them, care for those he deems important.
"Come now Lelouch, it just shows that they are healthy and strong." Said a girl that was casually jogging besides a panting and wheezing Lelouch who wore a while suit and pants, she has burnt orange hair and the same piercing blue eyes as Danny. "though I can't say the same for you, my oh so intelligent prince" she said mockingly.
Lelouch rolled his eyes and said "Jasmine, you and your brother are stamina maniacs, there is no winning a game of tag with the two of you" he said that in between breathes as he really is out of shape.
"First, call me Jazz my prince" Jazz said 'prince' sarcastically, if it were other nobles, she would have faced severe repercussions, and a verbal lashing by her mother and father, well mostly her mother. "Second" Jazz smiled in victory "How come Nunna and Euphie are out pacing you?"
Lelouch has no counter, and choose to just collapse on the soft grassy ground of the villa "I… Hate… you" Lelouch said his face covered in sweat.
Jazz merely toppled over laughing sitting on the ground next to Lelouch, "Oh have the mighty have Fallen! Pff! Hahaha!" Jazz's laugh caught the attention of the other children, who made their way to her and Lelouch.
"Brother…" Said Nunnally in both concern for her brother who was sweating so much it looked like he was left out in the rain, and amusement "You should really exercise more Brother".
"Nunna is right Lelouch, you really need to up your stamina" said cute little Euphie.
"your really weak big bro" Said Danny bluntly, which made everyone hold in their laughter, even the people watching them.
"Young Daniel is right little brother! You really are weak hahaha!" Said a sandy blond male, who wore a more elegant version of the suits Danny and Lelouch wore (A/N I'm still bad at describing clothes… meh a bit more writing and I'll get in down)
"Like you are any different Clovis" Said a voice of authority, though it may carry weight, it also carried conviction, and some softness.
Clovis flinch and grumbled as he continued his painting "If you keep being so uptight Cornelia, suitors will be too afraid to even offer a flower"
"what was that dear brother?" said a smiling but deadly looking Cornelia, yes, a smiling Cornelia is either a bad thing or worse, there is no good in a smiling Cornelia, Clovis started to sweat.
"N-nothing, dear sister" Said Clovis focusing on the canvas and trying to avert his eyes from Cornelia.
Cornelia then looked back to the gathered children and spoke "Daniel is correct Lelouch, you cannot neglect your body in favor of your mind"
Lelouch grumbled something but no one heard.
"That is why starting tomorrow I will up your physical training" Said Cornelia stoically, but if you look close enough you can see a slight twitch of her lips, as Lelouch loss whatever color left on his face.
"Who cares about being physically strong, have none of you heard brains beats brawn?" said Lelouch desperately trying to find a way out of training.
"Brains won't do you much if you can't even run 2 meters without collapsing" retorted Jazz, for all the young prince's intellect, he really is a child, a child that only wants to do what he likes not what he needs.
"I'm 10, I can get away with not training physically, lessons and chess are good enough for now" Said Lelouch
"Yes, you are 10, but 10-year old's like to get outside more, not stay coup up in their studies and play chess all day" said Jazz reprimanding Lelouch's mindset.
"When did you become an expert in psychology" Said Lelouch giving Jazz a huff.
"About 2 weeks ago when I read a book about it" Said Jazz casually.
"Big bro really needs to exercise though…" Said Danny looking at Lelouch.
"Yes brother, you must exercise more" Said Nunnally also looking at Lelouch.
Their combined stare was breaking Lelouch's resolve quicker than the Flash Mariann herself. After a few more agonizing seconds for Lelouch, and to the others amusement, he relented.
"Fine, you two won, I'll train more" Lelouch couldn't resist the stare Danny and Nunnally gave him.
The two grinned in victory and high fived each other.
"Tag! Your it Nunnally!" Said Danny as he ran away, smiling and laughing, it appears he deemed the little rest they had finished.
"I'll get you Danny!" and looks like Nunnally did as well as she rushed to catch her best friend.
"Those two, really" said Euphemia, she didn't show it, but she was starting to tire as well.
Jazz looked at her and chuckled "I guess Nunnally inherited Lady Marianne's stamina, and I guess Lelouch inherited her conviction, though that conviction is his insistence in not exercising" Looking at an annoyed Lelouch "Oh stop being grumpy"
Lelouch just looked anywhere but her.
"are you pouting?" asked Jazz
"…no" said Lelouch
"You are! Ha!"
"Shut up!"
"The genius prince! Pouting like her cute sister! Adorable!"
Jazz laughed heartily as did the others, Lelouch meanwhile has a dust of pink sprinkled over his cheeks.

As the others enjoyed teasing Lelouch Danny and Nunnally ventured a bit far away, but Cornelia was still able to at least see them, besides, there was no danger inside the Aries Villa, as no terrorist is smart enough to even get past the capital Pendragons gates, let alone the Villa.
Danny and Nunnally continued to laugh and play, Danny trying to evade Nunnally and Nunally trying catch him.
"Too slow Princino!" Said Danny, calling Nunnally by the nickname he gave her, which meant 'Princess' in Esperanto, a language Danny learned when he was bored.
He dodges another swipe of Nunnally trying to tag him, "Nope!" He said laughing.
Nunnally stomped her foot and pouted, folding her arms around her chest and huffing.
Danny seeing his best friend annoyed, signed and walked towards her.
As he neared her, his sense suddenly told him to move.
He moved to the side narrowly dodging a swipe from Nunnally aiming to win their game, but Nunnally overextended and she began to fall towards the ground.
Nunnally closed her eyes waiting for the impact but it never came, slowly opening her eyes, she soon found herself looking at the bluest sapphire orbs she has ever known.
Danny meanwhile acted on reflex and caught Nunnally, as she opened her eyes, he was met with amethyst gems that are the most beautiful things he has ever known.
The two 7 old's started to blush when they realized they are looking at each other's faces for a little too long.
Braking away from each other the two looked away, an air of awkwardness descended between them, and they didn't even know why.
'why is my heart beating so fast?' they both thought.
Nunnally and Danny are only 7 after all, even though they are familiar with the concept, they have yet to feel it to know that it is what they are feeling.
A few minutes past and the two had yet to say anything.
"um…" said Nunnally
"Hmm?" hummed Danny
"tag your it" said Nunnally as she poked Danny's cheek as he was turning around to see her. Giving her best friend a smile, a smile Danny liked to see every day.
Smiling as well Danny and Nunnally proceeded their game and ran around laughing and smiling, enjoying each other's company.
The two didn't know what they were feeling, but they hated being awkward between them, the silence was bad enough.
Off to the side, hidden behind the shadows of the trees in the villa, was someone with emerald green hair, oval shaped face, and beautiful molten amber eyes.
"Young Nunnally found her knight" the feminine voice said, the children ran around towards a clearing and fell down laying down the grassy earth with smiles on their faces.
"Or perhaps her prince?" she gave an amused smile and left.

Danny and Jazz bid their farewell to Nunnally and Lelouch. The two siblings being escorted out the Aries Villa to their home.
They got on a white limousine and drove back to their house.
The siblings entered a serene silence, for a couple of minutes, until Jazz said something.
"How goes courting the young princess dear brother?" asked Jazz having a small smile, internally she was squealing in excitement at the thought of Danny and Nunnally together, her family and the Vi Britannia royal family are close friends, as her mother Madeline, was Marianne's sponsor during her time in the military and helped Marianne in achieving her current success.
It wasn't really surprising that Marianne's children and Madeline's grew close to one another, with Jazz considering Lelouch and Nunnally siblings in all but blood. So, imagine all of their surprise when her actual blood related brother starting to show signs of having a crush on Nunnally and her him as well.
Danny and Nunnally might not know it yet, but to everyone outside, it was painfully obvious.
Lelouch when he noticed was first extremely angered and became the typical 'you have to go through me to gain my sisters hand in dating' type of person. But when the dense Danny and the clueless Nunnally continued things along like they don't have any feelings for one another.
Lelouch started to get annoyed saying stuff like 'why won't he make a move already!' and 'is my little sister not good enough?!' and finally 'their too dense to notice!' he even went as far as writing a letter to Danny with Nunnally's name on it to try and push him to act on his feelings.
Good thing his mother Marianne caught him and said 'their just kids Lelouch, in time they'll notice, and when they do…' Marianne had a glint in her eyes that day.
"I don't know what you're taking about Jazz…" Said Danny gaining a blush and averting his eyes from his sister's.
Jazz smiled wider "your so cute when your embarrassed! Just remember, I want a niece then a nephew got it?" teased Jazz.
It was very effective as Danny went atomic "Not funny Jasmine!" Danny would start using Jazz's full name when she was starting to annoy him.
"Pff, hahaha!" the only real effect it had though was Jazz laughing out loud.
"Young master, young Lady, we are here" said the driver.
Wiping away some stray tears, Jazz started to calm down from her laughing fit.
"Thank you, Andrew," She said kindly.
"Thanks mister Drew!" said Danny smiling at the driver, appearing to dismiss his embarrassed face for the moment
The driver merely looked back and gave Jazz and Danny a kind but respectful smile "anytime my lord my lady"
Another servant then opened the door of the car to let the children out, once outside Danny and Jazz smiled at their home.
It looked like your typical noble house, but a little bigger because their house, house Fenton was a Count household and thus entitled to some benefits.
Especially their family, whose line are known to breed excellent talents for all fields, be it military, science, combat and anything in between.
There house was colored a light grey, their front door was made from mahogany wood, they have a garden, and 3 kitchens and most impressive of all, 34 bedrooms, all with their own bathrooms.
Why the ludicrous amount? Simple the Fentons are the few Britannian nobles that are, at their center, good people, the Fentons aren't greedy, they aren't arrogant like most nobles, and most of all, they treat their servant like people not tools.
So, they made their mansion to accommodate their staff, and let them have living quarters that aren't just a hole in the basement with a bunk bed.
A lot of nobles say it was a waste of time, money and effort they're right actually. But the Fentons don't care, in Jazz's fathers' words Jack Fenton 'we have too much money to know what to do with, we can afford to have our people feel like they have a second home here in the mansion'
Jazz and Danny are always proud to call themselves Fentons, humble, kind and most of all brave and selfless.
"Mom! Dad! Were home!" Yelled the siblings, as they enter their house.
"At the study! I'll have Matthew make some dinner, you two can come here if you want!" Said a feminine voice clearly their Mother.
"Ohh! And ask him to get me fudge as well!" a boisterous laugh followed, this one their father.
Danny and Jazz just signed and laughed at their father's antics.
The two siblings made their way to their parents' study, where their mother who looked fit and athletic with her slender figure and same orange hair as Jazz, was waiting for them. Danny was the first one to act, hugging his mother tight.
"Hi, mom" Said Danny
"Hello sweety" Said Maddie, hugging her child tightly before breaking it.
"How's my little Jazz" Maddie said and kissing her on the for head.
"Fine mom" Said Jazz kissing Maddie on the cheeks.
"Where's dad?" asked Danny looking inside the study.
The study has a homey feel to it, with a fire place, a couple of book shelves and a couple of seats to laze around in, Danny would always be here as he like to read by the fire.
But there was a secret hidden in this study that only the Fentons and their loyal staff knows about. Danny made his way to the fire place and reached inside, the fire was out so he didn't get burned, he fiddled a bit, but when he felt a grove, he let his index finger rest on it for a moment
A click was heard, moving aside Danny was treated to the parting of the wall off to the side of the fireplace. A spiral staircase was shown leading down the study.
Danny not waiting for his mother or sister, he went down in a rush, earning an exasperated sign from both females but smiles as well.
"He truly is like his father, energetic and a curious mind" Said Maddie, turning to her daughter she said "and you are like me, someone that can reign in their precious people" Maddie gave a motherly smile to jazz which she returned.

The entrance closed behind Maddie and Jazz as they made their way down the staircase, the soft light made it easier to see the steps. As the made their way deeper, they came upon a long hall way, its walls and ceiling was metallic silver, with pulses of green energy.
The duo made their way down the hall and with each step they can hear the laughter of two people getting louder; one was heavy and boisterous the other high and childlike.
The woman and girl shake their heads once the reached the end of the hallway and in to a large open room. The room looked advance, with a variety of tools and inventions scattered around the space, from what looked to be a gun with a large barrel, metallic silver with the same green pulse as is did the hallway.
To what looks to be an experimental hover craft, with numerous wires attached to it, but amidst the tables and shelfs filled with tools and blueprints. At the far wall of the room sat a large metallic gate like structure, it was colored a dark purple with hints if green and blue mix in, to contrast the mostly silver room.
This was the Jack and Maddie's most prized research and invention, a portal to purgatory, this invention may seem blasphemous, to anyone else it is, but the reason Jack and Maddie are making this portal is to harvest the energy found on the other side, Ectoplasm.
They Discovered Ectoplasm during their time in college when they were trying to make a functional teleportation portal instead of a portal to purgatory, together with a third member they were successful, but that portal was unstable and didn't connect to another place in their reality, but another, the Ghost Zone.
What they found in that separate reality was an energy source that is virtually infinite, Ectoplasm, a substance 10x more efficient than any power source on the planet. They manage to harvest enough until the portal they made collapsed and exploded nearly killing them all. The only casualty was there third member, who was severely burned and disfigured, someone they didn't see since.
They studied the Ectoplasm they did managed to get and found that it can be endlessly recycled with the only by products being neon. The only downside is it has a limited shelf life of a couple of years, good thing they made an artificial Ectoplasm though it is weaker.
"Mom! Dad said he was about to open the portal!" said an excited Danny his face adopting a bright smile.
Maddie smiled at her son, then looked at the man she loves "Jack, did you run the diagnostics?" she asked, wanting to make sure that the event with their last portal won't be the same with this one.
Jack, a large man with broad shoulders with the same black hair as Danny, nodded excited as well to finally see the fruits of their labor "you know it sweet cheeks! All green and ready to go!" to emphasis he pumps his fist in the air.
Chuckling at her husband's childish nature she turned to her kids and said "You heard your father, all green and ready to go, so let's go over their" Maddie said pointing to a blast shield near the entrance. The family made their way to protective cover and put-on lab coats and blast proof googles.
"Ready?" asked Jack holding a console
Everyone nodded with Danny holding on to Maddie's hand tightly, "Its going to be alright sweety" Maddie said reassuringly to her youngest. With Jazz holding on to Danny's shoulder to comfort him and to stem her own worry.
"3!"
"2!"
"1!"
Jack pressed something on the console, as a swirling green light enveloped the area, they could see the Portal coming to life, the green eerie portal has a sense of beauty to it, the swirls of it enchanting to people, but what is not good about the portal are the noises that followed.
Moaning of spirits long since departed from the earth echoed loudly in the enclosed room, their sounds of death was freighting to the younger Fentons, but with their parents by their sides they will endure.
As for Jack and Maddie it was both exhilarating that years of work are now baring fruit, but also anxious to hear the moans and wails of the dead spirits.
On the console Jack was holding a meter was slowly filling up, it started from red to orange, and then green "Madds, look" Said Jack handing the console to Maddie, she gasps at the reading.
"…Jack, it's not stopping" Maddie said in worry, Jack hearing this grew wide eyed and immediately pulled a lever beside him, cutting off all power in the room as emergency lights started fill the room and the portal dying shortly after.
"Dad?" asked Danny a questioning look on his face, but Jazz wore a worried one,
Jack and Maddie in an attempt to not let Danny panic as well as Jazz said "It was a failure Son, the portal was eating up too much energy" Jack said "Heh, guess we found something more ravenous than me eh?" Joked the patriarch.
The children couldn't help but crack a snort "No one eats more then you dad" said Danny chuckling.
"Yah, Dad, only you can eat a pound of ham and call for seconds" said Jazz also laughing, her previous tense and worried mind melting away by her father's nonchalant attitude.
"Poo, Madds, our kids are so mean" said Jack wallowing in fake sadness.
Maddie shook her head amused and amaze at how her Husband reassured their kids, "They are, right though honey, cut down on some of the fats and carbs" she joined in teasing Jack.
"Oh! The pain! My very own family! Fat shaming me! I'm not even that fat! I'm just big boned" said Jack with his over-the-top reactions.
They all looked at each other then started to laugh uncontrolibly, but it was soon stopped as they heard a grumble.
They looked to see Danny holding his stomach, with a sheepish smile on his face "Um, when's dinner?" Danny asked embarrassed. But he was not the only one hungry as Jazz's stomach also started to rumble.
Jack and Maddie shared a look, then looked back at their kids "Hmm, I Guess we Fentons are just born with big appetite huh, Madds?" Jack said smiling toothily.
"Yes honey, we do have bottomless stomachs, not just you" Said Maddie equally having a large smile on her face.
"Then what are we waiting for?! Let's eat!" Said Jack as he carried Danny and Jazz on his shoulders and rushed off towards the dining room, the three letting out fits of laughter as they crossed the hall and up the staircase.
Maddie looked on in happiness at her family.

As the Fentons are having their Dinner that night, just outside their Mansion, a top of one of the skyscrapers that has a perfect view of said Mansion, two people were seen holding binoculars
"Are you certain of this?" asked the smaller Shadow
The taller one nodded
"Yes, master V.V" the taller shadow said, bowing.
"Very well, Plasmius, you will be well compensated for this" Said V.V turning away from Plasmius, "By the way Vladimir, I will start my plan tomorrow, be sure to time your strike with mine" with his piece done V.V blended into the shadows, leaving Vladimir Masters or Plasmius on the roof tops.
A toothy smile spread across his face, a smile that sent shivers down the spine of the people in the building, "Soon, I will have everything once more" a bellowing laugh echoed in the capital, a laugh of a demented individual, tainted by a force out of this world.
(A/N I know I know; I haven't updated the other story but this little plot bunny won't leave my mind! I tried to write for the other story but I can't cause I keep seeing visions of this one!
Oh and um I might re-write the other story heh, the first couple of chapters were cringe for me so yah.
Btw, like what I have plan? It just made sense to pair Danny up with Nunnally because they are both 14 in their respective canon stories, but I won't pair Jazz with Lelouch, or is that what ya'll want? heh let us see.)
