Alright, this is a new one for me, but here's a spin-off of Phantom of Truth, one of the best fics to recently grace the archives. Written and posted with permission by the incomparable HaiJu. For those of you who haven't read it (and I highly suggest that you do), this will contain spoilers.
Maddie spends a couple weeks testing and experimenting on Danny Phantom in a GIW facility. She obviously doesn't know it's her son at the time, but theorizes that Phantom is an imprint with Danny's image. At one point, one of Phantom's hands comes off. This idea hit me before HaiJu resolved the issue, and becomes AU from that point. So without further ado:
Truth
July 23, 2013
Maddie dropped her bags at the door. "I'm home!"
Enthusiastic hugs from Jack and Jazz. Danny hung back, leaning heavily against the wall, waving nervously with the arm that wasn't in a sling.
"What happened?" Maddie latched onto his meager frame, alarmed at how much empty fabric bunched in her hands.
"About that…"
The bandage. Impossible.
"…wouldn't believe it…"
It was the same cut she'd made in the lab.
"… freak accident…"
She raced toward the only rational explanation.
"… had to amputate."
What if… as imprints… Danny and Phantom were connected? Physically connected.
Oh god.
What had she done?
