Well, this is my second fanfic. The first time I posted this, it removed all font formatting, including italics for thoughts. Oh well, here's the full summary:

It's April Fools Day, and the ghosts have no idea what April Fools means. They pull a bunch of pranks that have nothing to do with the holiday, putting Danny in awkward situations. Worst of all, however, is that Val's catching on to his secret. Will he still be alive and in one piece for the dance that evening, or will he be obliterated? And why the heck does Skulker have pamphlets?

Disclaimer-I don't own any of this, ok?

"Beep! Beep! BEEP!" Danny hit the off button on his alarm clock. But the infernal beeping sound wouldn't go away. He opened his eyes to see Skulker standing over him, a small, beeping ball in his mechanical hands.

"Too late, ghost child. Trying to phase through this explosion won't work, because it was specially made to only affect you. They'll wake up and you'll have just…disappeared." Danny's eyes grew wide as he noticed the bomb had a countdown on it, and he only had five seconds left. 5...4...3...2...1...

"APRIL FOOLS!" Danny blinked at the words. Then he realized he hadn't blown up. He looked at the calendar on his wall and groaned. Oh, great. April Fools' Day. And now I've got one of my enemies in my bedroom with a fake bomb. Wait, the bomb's fake! I'm ALIVE! But instead of screaming all this, he just looked at Skulker, raising an eyebrow.

"Did I miss something? Normally you'd be threatening to rest my pelt at the foot of your bed, or something else like that. Whatever." He jumped out of bed and went ghost.

"Let me just tell you one thing, Whelp. April Fools' Day is a holiday in the Ghost Zone too, and we celebrate it by pulling pranks on each other, just like you humans do." Danny floated closer to the ground, arms crossed and eyebrow raised.

"And I should believe this why? If it really is April Fools' Day, you could be joking me. Then you'd kill me." He stared at Skulker, smiling smugly. Let's see if he can counter that.

"Well, for starters, I haven't killed you. There's a truce today, much like around the winter holidays. Until next time, Ghost Child." Danny blinked as Skulker flew down into the basement. He followed, and watched as Skulker went back into the Ghost Zone, turning around to give a quick nod goodbye. Danny changed back into human mode and stood there, blinking.

"Ok, that was definitely not normal." He climbed up the stairs, running into his mom at the top. She looked at him, and could tell he was confused.

"What's wrong, Danny? I'd say that you looked like you've seen a ghost, but we all know that wouldn't do anything like this to you! It's more like a 'you look like you've seen something completely outrageous' type thing." Danny smiled at his mother. She's not as clueless as Dad, and it's nice that she knows my secret. I should probably tell her.

"Let's just say that time that having cookies with Skulker doesn't seem as outrageous as it would've twenty minutes ago." Maddie blinked at him. I wonder what he's getting at. "Oh, and Mom? There's a ghost right above your head." She looked up and didn't see anything.

"Ghost? Where?" Jack came over to where the two were talking. The next thing they knew, Danny was on the floor laughing.

"Oh gosh guys, I can't believe I got both of you at once! April Fools! But the whole Skulker thing really did happen." His parents stared blankly for a few seconds before getting it. They smiled and laughed too. Jazz came downstairs to see what the fuss was about. Danny and his parents glanced at each other for a few moments, before all smiling.

"Jazz, there's a ghost behind you!" They yelled. She screamed and ran over to them, only to stop screaming when she realized they were laughing even more.

"Do I want to know?" They nodded at her. "Ok, then. Tell me what is so funny about a ghost being behind m…wait. There was no ghost behind me, was there?" They shook their heads.

"Nah, it was an April Fools joke, and we got you!" She glared at her family. Let them laugh, this holiday's so immature most of the time.

"You guys are so immature! Who would want to celebrate a holiday where people play petty tricks on friends and family?" They blinked at her, and looked a little down.

"Oh common, Jazzypants! It's fun! Plus, it's even better when you trick more than one person at a time!" Jack was like a kid in a candy store.

"Ok, Jazz. It won't be a joke then." He walked behind Jazz. "There, now you've really got a ghost behind you." She went to attack him, but he went intangible and stuck his tongue out at her.

"No fair, Danny! It still doesn't really count, since you're only half ghost." He frowned at her a little. Technically, she's right. But right doesn't always mean fun.

"Ok, would you rather have a halfa behind you, or controlling you?" Jazz glared at him and sat down at breakfast, muttering about how using ghost powers against older sisters should be against the law.

"Danny, don't threaten your sister like that. I know your unique abilities are fun, but how many times do we have to tell you that using them for pranks like that really isn't right?" He rolled his eyes at his mom.

"But it's so much fun!" He protested. He sighed and sat down with his breakfast. This was going to be a long day.

Tell me what you think, please! It gets a lot more serious as it gets further on, but the first few chapters are all about pranks. Constructive criticism always loved, but please no flames!
