Hundreds of hands shot up, and he heaved a great sigh. Jazz stepped up to the mic, and questions were flung her way. "First off, we need some rules," she said, loudly enough to quiet everyone. "First, Danny has the right to refuse answering any question. Second, no questions about his personal life as Danny Fenton unless they tie into Phantom somehow. Third, nobody is to come onto the stage or they will be placed in jail for the night."

People groaned from the audience, opposing mainly the second rule. They all jumped in surprise, even his friends and family, when his three ghost friends (and ghost 'cousin') floated onto the stage. "These are my friends. I think I'll let them introduce themselves."

First, the pale, medieval ghost walked (ok, floated, whatever) to the podium. "I am Dorathea, but you may call me Dora. I am bonded to the Amulet of Aragon, which allows me to do this," she said, closing her eyes as the amulet glowed. Her teeth were replaced with fangs, and her red, pupil-slitted eyes snapped open. Before their very eyes, she grew to the size of a nicely sized dragon. She let out a roar, and everyone made a beeline for the door.

She quickly shrank back to normal size, and Clockwork stepped up. "I… am the Master of all Time," he announced, and a news reporter snorted.

"A mere child?" they asked, seemingly forgetting he was a ghost.

"Actually, I'm not always a child…" he announced, and at that very moment changed into a man that looked to be around 30 years old. "I have helped Daniel a few times before. Once to stop an evil version of himself from taking over Amity Park and destroying everything." Danny flinched guiltily, but Clockwork continued. "I also allowed him to travel back in time and stop the accident that ruined Vlad's life. Unfortunately, this did not end well."

Again people noted Danny's cringe, but batted it away. Clockwork, changing to yet another age, backed away and the Dairy King stepped forward. "Hello, I'm tha Dairy King. And I'm here to say, this kid is good. I may not be a 'good ghost,' but I just wanna be left alone, don'cha know? Good luck!" he said, and the people in the audience looked at each other oddly.

To tell the truth, Danny didn't even know why he came. Suddenly, his ghost sense went off, but he relaxed when he saw who it was. "WULF!" he yelled, running to his friend from the past. Behind him he saw another canine, and let out a shrill whistle. "Cujo?" he asked, the small ghost dog running towards him and knocking him over.

When people tried to approach Danny, the dog immediately grew in size, growling at them all. "No, no, it's ok," the hybrid announced, scratching the dog under his chin. He shrank back down to his regular size, licking Danny in the face. "Who's a good dog?" he asked, his voice having that same sound you used when talking to a baby.

Only then did he remember all the people around, and smiled guiltily. "Umm, hi. This is Cujo, a dog who used to cause me and," he let his eyes linger on Valerie for a split second longer here, "some other people quite the amount of problems. He wasn't my dog, merely another ghost who was looking for his squeaky toy. I thought I could control him, but I couldn't. Well, I can now, but I couldn't at first."

The dog barked happily into the microphone, whimpering when his voice was magnified. Wulf still didn't trust anyone, so Danny heaved a sigh. "And this is Wulf. At first he was hunting me, then Walker tried to kill him so he joined me. Alright, now I think we have one more ghost who hasn't introduced herself," he said, his voice rising when questions were flung his way.

Dani looked really nervous, stepping up to the microphone. Danny knew it would be hardest for her, seeing as she would have human emotions restricting her. One probably being stage fright.

"Ummm, hi. I'm Dani Phantom, spelled with an 'I'. Vlad Masters created me in his attempt to create the perfect clone of Danny, and he convinced me to work on the side of evil. I posed as Danny's cousin, actually planning on taking him to Vlad the entire time. However, I overheard Vlad talking, and realized what a jerk he was. So I helped Danny escape.

"Only one problem. I can't use my powers, because if I do I start to dissolve into ectoplasm. Sure, I can do the basics without wasting power, but that's just… I don't know… A given I guess. Anyways, I have all of Danny's powers except his ghostly wail, including having a human form," she states, taking a deep breath and changing into a small, twelve year old girl.

"And now we do questions," Danny announced, everyone except the ghosts walking off the stage. "Now, you may ask any ghost any question, but they have the right to refuse. Also, I'll explain how I got my powers now, so that question isn't asked later. At the beginning of the school year, my parents finished an invention. They called it The Ghost Portal.

"However, when they couldn't get it to work, they left. Sam, however, convinced me to go inside. She thought a ghost world would be cool. So I put on a jumpsuit, entering into the portal. Unfortunately, we found out that the on switch was inside the portal, and I leaned on it accidentally. I received a nasty shock, but my parents and sister were out and didn't hear my screams.

"When I woke up, I had white hair, green eyes, and my outfit was inverted. I thought I was delirious from the shock, and Sam and Tucker were seeing things. That is, until I started going through solid objects, turning invisible, and floating off the ground. I decided not to tell anyone about my powers, but Jazz found out. I'm guessing it's because I wasn't being very careful that day, but I'm kinda sketchy on the details." He shot a look a Jazz, although it wasn't unkind, that said he wanted to have answers.

"Let the questions begin," he said, and practically everyone shot their hands up. He decided to choose random people to ask, not really knowing where to start. "You know what, I think I'm going to need some help up here," he said, deciding that wasn't a very good idea. The two rings surrounded him again, and he turned into his alter ego.

Even though he knew it was probably a bad idea to come out from behind the shield, he did. But rather than flying over the crowd, he walked towards the back down the aisle. He made sure to maintain intangibility, all the hands trying to grab him merely phasing right through him.

He had his destination in mind, and smiled down at a girl no older than five years old. She was huddled with many more kids, and Danny knew she lived in the orphanage. He kneeled down, offering his hand to her. "Do you want to be my helper?" he asked gently, the shocked crowd waiting for an answer.

The small girl looked up at the owner of the orphanage, and she nodded her consent. The small girl jumped into Danny's arms so fast he fell down on his butt, but he laughed it off. "Hold on tight," he said, and she wrapped her arms tightly around his neck. He lifted off, people in the crowd below gasping.

"He's kidnapping her!" someone yelled, and Danny rolled his eyes. Immediately the ghost hunters pulled out their weapons, and the ghost made no move to stop them. He rather floated towards the stage, flying through it and placing the girl down next to him.

"Now the questions can begin," he announced, the girl looking at him with wide eyes. "And this little girl will choose who gets to speak."

Hey everyone. I rarely do author's notes because, well, I'm to lazy to think of things to say. However, after Chapter 1, somebody had the wonderful idea of me writing what happened to make the girls so angry. So I've decided to attempt to put that up here in this press conference somewhere.

Once again I would like to thank WingsofMorphius, for the excellent idea for this story. Check out her challenges page, she has some other awesome ideas. I know I'm probably going to try and do another one sometime after I post a few chapters of the other Danny Phantom fanfiction I've got in my head.
