Well. Didn't think I'd get so many followers and favorites in, what, a week? Maybe two! Thanks to all who did! And, again, this chapter is a fast-forward 11 months! ALMOST HALLOWEEN.

Before I start the chapter, I would just like to apologize to the person Phantomspirit. I thought there was something familiar about that name! I will change it if you want me too! LOL. XD

DICLAIMER: I wish, but I don't own ROTG or DP. :)

Phantom Spirit

Chapter 2: The Big Five

Danny was floating above the small town of Burgess. It was still daytime, the sun shining down on the kids playing in the park. Midnight danced around his head, where she always is. He'd gotten more shadow pets over the year. He tried to get one for each town, so when it was Halloween, they could all scare the kids. The ghosts he commands just do what they do, without hurting anyone. Surprisingly, they cooperated.

A cool breeze blew through his hair, blowing his hood down. He would have shivered, but cold didn't bother him.

He smiled. "Hey Jackie," he called.

"Hey Danielle," a voice replied behind him.

Danny turned to face the source of the voice. A tall, pale teen with white, messy hair and bright blue eyes floated behind him. He wore a light blue hoody with frost designs dancing across the shoulders and dirty brown pants. He had no shoes and was carrying a wooden staff with a G shaped top, also covered in frost.

Jack was one of the first spirits he met, and one of the only ones he liked. They had a lot in common: loved fun, pranked Bunny, and hated Pitch. Danny wasn't there during the fight with Pitch, but he's heard stories.

"It's not Danielle," he told him.

"Well, it's not Jackie either," Jack told him with a smirk.

"Touchy, touchy." Danny slowly dropped to the ground, Jack following with Midnight. "What are you doing here anyways? It's Fall. Won't the Fall Spirits get mad? They don't particularly like you." Danny raised an eyebrow at the last sentence.

"And I don't care. You want to do something?"

Danny opened his mouth to say yes, but Midnight poked his head. He turned to his little friend and saw his shadow eagle next to her. "Sorry Jack," he said, turning his head to the winter spirit. "It's almost Halloween. My shadows will be bugging the crap out of me." He turned back to the eagle. "So I'll be busy."

"Oh." Jack frowned. All his friends seemed to be too busy now. Tooth is busy with teeth, North with toys, Sandy with dreams, and there's no way he's hanging out with Bunny. "I'll just go back to North's." He started walking away from the new spirit. 'North can't be that busy, right?'

X.X.X.X.X

The window to the toy shop blew open with a cold wind. Jack landed on the floor of the workshop and walked in. The place was in chaos. The elves were running around playing with the toys and eating cookies. The yetis were busy making the toys and testing them out. Toy trains chugged across the floor while airplanes flew through the air.

Jack began walking through the zoo of a workshop, dodging airplanes and stepping over elves, occasionally freezing a few. He finally came to the globe room, where North was ordering around some yetis.

"Hey North!"

The large man turned around, a large grin on his face. "Aw! Jack!" he yelled in his Russian accent. "What brings you here, my friend?"

"Had no one else to bug, so I'm going with you." North walked up to him and gave him a bone-crushing hug. "North- need- to breath!"

North smiled and dropped him. "I'm glad to hear it!" He walked back to the yetis. "But there are only a few months till Christmas! I'm very busy."

"Oh come on!" Jack said. "First Danny, now you!"

North turned around. "Who's D-"

Light beamed through the skylight, lighting up the room even more. North looked up to the dawn sky.

"Manny!" he exclaimed. "What surprise do you have now?"

The beam of light trailed across the floor to the circle engraved on it. North's eyes widened.

He ran towards controls in front of the globe and grabbed the handle. He turned his fist so the handle turned with it and slammed down.

The Northern Lights appeared in the sky. Jack watched in awe as the colors danced above the workshop. He had only been a guardian for 2 years, and has never seen the Northern Lights yet. He hasn't even seen MiM do this before, so he was defiantly confused.

In about five minutes, Tooth flew through the window, 3 mini fairies following. Next was Sandy, coming through the same window on a dream sand cloud. The ground opened up next to the newly arrived guardians, forming a small hole. Bunnymund hopped out of the tunnel.

"What's the problem, North?" Tooth asked.

North pointed to the moon. The three came to where the moon beam was highlighting. The small circle started to glow until it was completely white. It sunk into the ground, disappearing from their view.

Jack leaned towards the Tooth Fairy, still watching the hole. "What's going on?" he whispered.

She smiled at him, her hands clasped by her heart. She floated next to the winter spirit, the bright feathers on her sparkling in the moon light as she moved.

"A new guardian!"

A crystal peaked out of the hole, slowly rising out. The Big Five looked at each other as the light started taking form.

"Oh! Who will it be this time?" Tooth squealed. A sand question mark and exclamation mark formed over Sandy's head.

"Why'd he choose another so soon?" Jack said to himself, loud enough for the others to hear.

Bunny looked up. "Please not the Ground Hog. Please not the Ground Hog," he mumbled to himself.

North took a step closer to the crystal as an image started to take form. A teenage boy with a hooded cloak, arms crossed and hood up. North raised an eyebrow.

"Who's tha-?" he started.

"WHAT!?" Bunny exclaimed. "What is with him and picking the pranksters?!"

Jack jumped onto his staff so he was squatting on the curved part, the staff somehow standing upright. "YES! Someone to hang out with AND do my job with me!"

"Jack, Bunny, you know him?" Tooth asked, gesturing to the holographic teen.

"Yes! You don't?" Jack looked at the three confused guardians. "That's-"

"Danny Phantom," Bunny interrupted, his Aussie accent clearly showing his dislike in the spirit. He narrowed his eyes. "The new spirit of Halloween."

North raised his eyebrows. "Aw! That's who you were talking about!" He looked towards Jack.

"Who's going to get him?" Tooth looked at each of her friends. Sandy smiled and pointed a sand arrow towards Bunny.

"Oh no!" Bunny pointed at the little man, his large ears flattening against his head. "I had to get this bloody show pony last time!" He pointed towards Jack. "I'm not gonna get the other!"

"Cool it, kangaroo!" Jack said, hopping off his staff. "I'll get him. Besides," he looked at North, "I don't want him getting stuffed in a sack like I was."

X.X.X.X.X

Danny was flying over the woods he first woke up in. He always came to this town when he had free time. Amity Park was the closest settlement to his forest. He would stop in, scare a few kids, and get back to work.

He landed on the street of the city and started walking along. It was a few hours till midnight, so it was dark outside. Perfect time to scare. Midnight was out helping the ghosts prepare for the upcoming holiday, so he was on his own.

After a few minutes of walking, he spotted a boy walking on the sidewalk. This was his favorite teen to scare! He wore a yellow shirt and baggy jeans with black glasses and a red hat. He always had his PDA, phone, or any other electronic. Heck, one time when he ran off screaming, his green backpack fell and there was even electronics in there!

Danny concentrated on his powers. Fog rolled in from all directions. The kid looked up from his PDA.

"Oh no…" he muttered to himself.

Danny smirked. He flew up to the street light. When he touched it, it burned out. He hopped from one to the other, each one burning out at contact.

The teen started to walk faster, mumbling to himself. "Nothing's gonna happen. Just get to Sam's. Don't be paranoid. It's just fog. And darkness…"

Danny snapped his fingers. A shadow owl landed next to him on the building he was perched on. Even though people couldn't see him, they can see and hear his shadow animals.

"Whooo… Whooo… Whooo…" the owl cooed. The boy jumped slightly, but didn't look up.

"Well well well," Danny smirked. "Looks like he's gotten help with this. He usually runs at this point." He put two fingers into his mouth and blew. The whistle caused a shadow coyote to fly towards him, landing besides him. Danny patted his head. "You know what to do, Shadow."

Shadow jumped off the building and burned out the lights the boy was walking towards. The dog landed in an ally in front of the dark skinned teen and howled.

Said boy yelped and dropped his hand held computer. Danny flew to the nearest building to get a better look. The coyote growled and stalked out of the ally, green eyes glowing through the fog. The teen backed up slowly as Shadow stalked towards him.

"Crap crap crap crap crap…" the boy whispered. The dog sped up until he was running towards the boy. "CRAP!"

Danny laughed as the boy stumbled to get away. He tripped and rolled onto his back, putting up an arm to block the dog. He screamed when Shadow pounced.

"Tucker!" Danny looked around, not seeing anyone who could've said that.

Realizing the boy was about to wet his pants, Danny snapped his fingers. The dog's ear flicked a bit, signaling he heard. When he was just inches from landing on the boy, he faded to mist. Danny's eyes glowed slightly brighter and the fog started to dissipate. The lights flickered to life one by one.

'Oh, what the heck?' he thought. Danny snapped his fingers again. The coyote reappeared and walked towards the boy's PDA, still lying on the floor. He picked up the, thankfully, unharmed devise and padded to the frightened boy.

The boy had stood after he realized the dog had left. He about fell over again when it appeared again.

"P-Please!" he cried. "I don't taste good!"

The dog herded the boy so he had his back to the wall of the building Danny was on. Shadow walked up to him and placed the electronic in front of his feet. The boy looked between his PDA, then the dog, not trusting the canine enough to reach down and grab it.

"Tucker!" Danny's head shot towards the source of the voice. A girl with short black hair put up in a ponytail on top of her head was running down the street. She had on a black mini skirt with green stripes going vertically and horizontally and a black belly shirt with black combat boots.

The coyote looked at the girl, then to Danny. Danny clicked his tongue twice and Shadow turned to black mist. The girl reached Tucker, as he now knows is his name, and pulled him from the black smoke. The mist trailed up to Danny as he started walking away.

He gave one last look at the teens. The boy ran to his PDA and stroked it lovingly. The girl just stared at where he was. Danny raised an eyebrow under his hood, but a whining drew his attention. He looked down to see Shadow looking up at him. 'Oh, she's looking at Shadow.' He laughed to himself. 'Should have known. She can't see me. She doesn't believe.'

Danny patted the canines head and walked back. The owl gave one last "Whooo" before flying besides them.

"Danny!"

OOOHHH! Cliffy! XD Is it Sam? Tucker? Jack? Some other person? FIND OUT NEXT WEEK!

I didn't have to do the whole "Scare the hell out of Tucker" thing, but I thought it be funny for you and fun to write. I WAS RIGHT! It was TOTALLY fun to write! Well, next chapter is the… IDK what it's called… Guardian Ceremony? Yah, let's go with that. *Smiles evilly* I can't WAIT to write THAT!

I was gonna say something else, but I fo- WAIT! NEVERMIND! I just remembered! I would have described what North, Tooth, Sandy, and Bunny looked like, but they are kind of detailed and I didn't want to put in 4 paragraphs of just describing. -_- Don't judge me…

Funny Fact BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE IT: Did anyone else notice that Burgess sounds a lot like Burgers? XD
