Phantom planet never happened. Danny was still a thing of mystery to most if not all of the world. But things have changed in the past few years, a lot of things.


The day ends with little to nothing exciting happening, no ghost alerts, no embarrassing parents, nothing weird has happened all day.

Except the one time his ghost sense had gone off during class.

Danny caught up with Sam and Tucker just outside of the building, they were walking home today and since they all lived relatively close together it was a convenient way to talk after school.

"So," Tucker starts, "Have your parents done anything new?"

Danny smiles, "Yeah actually, they are making something for Jazz before she goes. It's supposed to be an enhanced version of the ghost shield but it can be kept up 24/7 and it's not visible to the eye."

Sam gives him a look of concern, "Won't that make your life harder?"

He shrugs, "Maybe, but for now it's a good gift since she is leaving. There might not even be any ghosts where she is going."

Tucker pulls out his old PDA, "Last I checked the only places with high ghost activity were mostly supernatural. Including here."

Sam smiles fondly at her boy friend, "You still have that thing?"

Tucker blushes and runs a hand over his neck, "Hey, can't diss the classics. I have more modern tech but I just couldn't let this one go."

Sam kisses his cheek before walking down a street toward her house, "It's fine Tuck, it makes you quirky! See you tomorrow guys!"

The boys wave at her as she takes a different road continuing forward.

"You 2 have really mellowed out, huh?" Danny nudges his shoulder.

Tucker laughs, "YOU'RE saying that about US! Dude, I can't even begin to explain the chill you seem to have. Maybe it wouldn't be this way if the 'incident' hadn't happened but I for one am glad things happened the way they did."

Danny takes a moment to think about this before nodding, "Yeah but think about it, if I hadn't gone into the portal my parents wouldn't be ghost hunters."

Tucker nods, "You're probably right, but then we wouldn't know Sam now would we?"

Danny laughs, "I think we would have known her anyway. Besides it's not like it ever happened!"

Tucker pokes him in the chest, "Boom. See! It never happened! But at the same time, it has happened! You went in, we know Sam, your parents are ghost hunters! It doesn't matter what could have happened because it didn't. Now I gotta get home, see you tomorrow dude."

They share a fist bump as Tucker crosses the street, but Danny has to admit, his friend is right. Even if the timelines have been changed before, this is the one he is living in, and he wouldn't trade it for anything.
