A/N: Hello again! Thanks to all who reviewed, you're all wonderful! As most of you have figured out by now, this is a Danny Phantom/ Kim Possible crossover. I tried to write the story line in a way so that it could be placed just about anywhere in either series (if it were really an episode). Also, since the story is pre-written, I will try to update regularly, leaving about a day's span of time between updates to give everyone a chance to review. It's kinda embarrassing when you update the story, and then a few mintues later someone reviews the last chapter. (Sorry, Grifffinrose!)
Disclaimer: I don't own any Kim Possible or Danny Phantom characters. I do, however, own the Fenton Goo Gun. Except for the word Fenton, of course. But you know what I mean.
Special Author's Note: Please don't use cuss words in the reviews. I don't like them. Thanks!
And now, Replies to Reviewers!
theferretmenace: Yeah, I saw your sequel. It rocks! And I'm glad my announcement made you happy!
Gundam M: I certainly hope you think so as you read!
Classic Cowboy: Thanks! Whew, I was a little worried someone would beat me to the punch! Sorry your dissapointed, but I'm glad you like my story! Wow, you think I'm doing excellent work? Shoot, I'm flattered. Oh, and I saw those deviantart pics on your profile; they were great! Give my Kudos to Barsto, especially for that KP Star Wars Episode 2 one!
charizardag: Glad you like it! Sorry, but I'd have to say that this is BEFORE So The Drama, 'cause there's no couples stuff going on. And I can't really change it, 'cause the story's pre-written, and I like it as it is. As for your last sentence, your wish is my command! Read on!
Worker72: The answer is revealed in this chapter.
ron-sama: Yeah, I tried to capture Jack's goofy character as best as I could. Glad you like it! I'll try to update regularly.
Darkcloud1: Thanks for the Kudos! Yep, it's all pre-written. Glad you liked the last chapter, hope you like this one just as much!
Anghammarad: DP stands for Danny Phantom, a Nickelodeon show about a teenager who's a halfa (half ghost, half human) because of an accident in his ghost-hunting parents' lab. Glad you think I'm doing good work! Sorry, I didn't think the last chapter had too bad of a cliffhanger. Chapters 2&3 were originally one chapter, but I wanted to split them up, and that seemed like the best place to do it. Whoa, I'm on your favorites list? Wow, cool! I can't believe it! Thanks!
Sirka: Thanks! I'm glad you think so!
Daeron Blackoak: You know, it's fun reading your speculations on what's gonna happen next. I can at least tell you that you're right about it not being Drakkon & Shego, but you'll find out who the villain is in this chapter anyway. Here's something to speculate on, though: who says that there has to be villains from both shows behind the crime? Thanks for reviewing, and I hope you like this chap!
blue dream fairy: Oh, yay, I'm so glad you like it so much! And I'll be sure to tell people about you're fanfic (I can't do it here because some people might think of it as favoritism.) Yeah, I like the name Karen, too. I also like the name Terra. There was no point to that comment, by the way. Welp, hope ya enjoy this chap!
And now, on with the update!
Ch. 3: A Suspect Revealed
There was an awkward silence at the suddenness of both departures. Kim quickly recovered, though, and began digging through her backpack for something. "Okay, Ron, spread out and look for clues," she said authoritively, at the same time pulling out a pair of red-lensed sunglasses and putting them on. Danny looked surprised when a strange little light-tipped rod twisted out of the top of the black frame, shining a red light in front of the girl's eyes.
"What are those things?" he asked, curious.
"Spectrometer sunglasses," she said simply. She began walking around the room, scanning for anything unusual.
Ron just leaned casually against the desk next to Danny. Waiting until Kim was on the other side of the room, he whispered to Danny, "I don't know why she told me to help. She or Rufus always find the clues."
"Who's Rufus?" the blue-eyed teenager asked. Rufus suddenly popped back out of Ron's pocket and said "Hi," in a high-pitched voice. Danny jumped, then took a closer look. "Whoa," he said in confusion. "What is that thing?"
"A naked mole rat," Ron boasted proudly. "The bestanimal a man could ask for. Rufus, clue check." He directed this last sentence towards his little bald friend. Rufus nodded happily and jumped to the floor, where he instantly began sniffing around.
"Can I help?" Danny asked awkwardly.
Kim thought for a minute. "Sure," she gladly consented. "You might be able to recognize something that doesn't belong here." Danny nodded and moved to the opposite side of the room. When he was sure that no one was close enough to notice, his eyes began to glow a bright neon green. He studied the floor and walls, looking for signs of strange ghost activity. Suddenly, he noticed something.
"Hey!" he called to Kim. "I think I found something!" Kim came over to him, Ron still lounging against the desk, and looked over his shoulder as he picked up a small grey hair. He dropped it into her outstretched hand, and she used a pair of tweezers to pick it up and study it.
"Does anyone in your family have silvery-grey hair?" she asked in a business-like manner.
"No," Danny answered immediately. Technically this wasn't a lie, since his hair turned white, not silver. "Dad's got some white hair, but it's definitely not grey or silver."
The teen hero pulled the Kimmunicator out of her pocket to call her super genius friend. "Wade," she said as his face appeared on the screen, "I'm sending you an unidentified hair sample. See if you can match the DNA."
"Okay, Kim, but I don't know if I'll be able to get that information," Wade told her as he typed furiously on his computer. "He might not have a DNA sample on file, or…got it!" The 10-year-old was studying his computer screen again. "The hair belongs to a man who was in the hospital for several years for a case of," he scratched his head in confusion, "'ectoplasmic acne'." Kim raised an eyebrow. "Yeah, that's what I thought, too," Wade continued. "His name is Vlad Masters. He's a multi-billionaire who currently lives in Wisconsin, but it says here that he's been away for a while." Wade gave her a thumbs-up. "Looks like he could be your guy."
Kim missed the enraged look on Danny's face. "Thanks, Wade. Keep me posted." Turning to Danny, she asked, "Do you know this guy?"
"Yeah," Danny replied, trying to disguise his anger. "He's an old 'friend' of my Dad's." The boy turned and headed for the stairs, then looked back to them from the bottom step. "Will you guys be all right?" he asked distractedly. "I've got some…uh…stuff to do."
Kim raised an eyebrow curiously. "Yeah, sure. Thanks for your help." He nodded hurriedly and ran up the stairs. There was a slam from the door at the top a moment later.
Ron wandered over to Kim, staring at the staircase. "Weird kid," he commented. "So, what's next, KP?"
Kim was sticking the hair into a plastic bag. "We find out where this Vlad Masters is staying and ask him a few questions." The Kimmunicator beeped and Kim instantly whipped it back out. "Go, Wade."
"I found him," the super-genius said confidently. "He's staying in a secret estate outside of town."
"How did you find it if it's a secret?" Kim asked as she gathered their things and headed for the stairs.
Wade gave her a 'did-you-ever-doubt-me?' grin. "Kim, why would you ask such a silly question?"
Kim grinned back at him. "I have no idea, Wade." Finishing up with Wade, she turned to see Ron playing around with more ghost-hunting gadgets. The red-haired teenager grabbed her friend's arm and dragged him towards the stairs. "Let's go, Ron."
------------------
Meanwhile, Danny had run up to his room and was calling his friends on the phone. "That's right, Sam. Just meet me at the Nasty Burger. I already called Tucker. Bye." Hanging up the phone, he peeked outside the door to make sure no one was around. There was a flash of blue, and a boy with white hair and a black outfit fazed through the roof and flew across town, invisible to everyone below.
10 minutes later, Danny Fenton, Tucker Follie, and Sam Manson were all seated in a booth at the Nasty Burger, the local burger joint. Tucker, an African-American teen in a yellow shirt, glasses, and a red beret, was settled back into the cushioned seat and playing a game on his PDA. "Okay, Danny, we're all here. What's going on?"
"Vlad stole the ghost portal!" Danny exclaimed quietly. The black-haired Goth girl next to Tucker spewed her drink across the table. Danny wiped his face in disgust. "Sam, that's disgusting!" he said indignantly. Tucker was trying his hardest not to bust out laughing. It was a good thing that there weren't many other people there, since the jocks from school wouldn't have even tried to hold it back.
"Sorry, Danny," Sam apologized sheepishly. "But did you say what I think you said? Vlad Masters, the billionaire who hates your dad, stole the ghost portal?"
Danny nodded. "Yeah, there's even proof. I went downstairs after school to dump that ghost from this morning out of the Fenton Thermos, and there were 2 people down there with my parents. The portal was gone. Apparently Mom decided to call in some professional help."
"Professionals?" Tucker asked, interested. "What did they look like?'
"Well, one was a girl with red hair, like Mom's ," he said after a moment. "The other one was a blonde guy with a naked mole rat," he grinned at Sam's strange look, "who kept messing around with Dad's ghost-hunting equipment. They weren't much older than us, though. I think the girl's name was Kim Possible."
"Hey!" Tucker said excitedly. "I've heard of her. I found her website. It says she can do anything and she's been on all kinds of top secret missions and stuff." A smirk came across his face. "And let me tell ya', she makes Paullina look like an average beauty."
Sam rolled her eyes. "Trust Tucker to care about her looks above everything else." Then she gave Tucker a strange look. "Wait. If the missions are top secret, why would they be on a website?"
Tucker swelled his chest proudly. "I've been practicing hacking into government files," he bragged. Sam slapped a hand to her face in exasperation.
"Anyways," Danny cut in impatiently, "I found one of Vlad's hairs using my ghost vision. The girl-Kim-put it into this little blue gadget and told somebody on its screen to run a DNA test."
"That must be Wade," Tucker interrupted again. "He's supposed to be a 10-year-old super genius who invents stuff for Kim Possible and her team." Suddenly he realized that both his friends were glaring at him. "Sorry," he apologized. "Finish explaining."
Danny sighed and slumped back against the booth seat. "There's not much else to tell. Wade, or whoever it was, told Kim that Vlad has been away from Wisconsin for a while, so I don't know where to look." Then he flung his arms into the air. "And I don't have any place to unload the ghosts I catch!"
"Well, look at the bright side," Sam suggested. "At least we'll find out the thermos's maximum capacity."
Danny stood up to go, the troubled look still lingering on his face. "Yeah, whatever," he sighed. "We'll just have to work on it. I'll meet you in the park tonight at the usual spot."
"And where are you going?" Sam asked before he could dash off.
The 14-year-old yawned. "Home, to take a nap," he said drowsily. "One way or another, it's probably gonna be a long night."
He had no idea just how long a night it would be…
A/N: Bwahahaha! Cliffhanger! Actually, this was just the end of the chapter, and I added that last sentence for drama. Well, what da you all think? Please review! And feel free to ask questions; I can't gaurantee that I actually answer them, but I might if they're not too plot-revealing. Until tomorrow, Riverfox237 signing off!
