Disclaimer: I don't own Danny Phantom or Devil May Cry.

Devil May Cry is one of my main fandoms – two thousand years ago, Mundus took over the Underworld and was conquering the human world when he was stopped and sealed away by the dark knight Sparda, also a devil. Now, Sparda's dead but his half-human son Dante is carrying on his legacy as a mercenary demon hunter.

According to Enzo's testimony, Dante does do hauntings and possessions as well as demon attacks.

Yay for white-haired hybrids!

Danny twisted to dodge Skulker's missile. "Is it just me, or is your aim getting worse?" He fired back a blast of his own.

"Do not mock me, whelp! I, Skulker, am the Ghost Zone's greatest hunter, and soon your skull will be my beer stein!" Another missile launcher appeared out of his suit of armor.

Only to be shot off. Danny and Skulker both looked around. Where had that come from?

There! On the roof of that building, there was a man in red with a missile launcher of his own. He blew smoke off of it, then it disaperaed into thin air. "You might be the greatest hunter in the Ghost Zone, maybe, but not here, tall, green and ugly."

"You claim you are superior to me as a hunter! Who dares!"

The white-haired man's hands spun and twin guns, white and black appeared in his hands. Another ghost hunter? Danny floated away.

"Me, Dante."

Skulker's jaw dropped. "Devil Hunter Dante? The son of…"

The guns started to fire and the man jumped towards them. Right off the building. But he didn't fall far before a strange circular pattern of red light appeared in midair. He jumped off of it and landed on the nearest building to them. "Right. Now back off. You're not the one I'm after."

"The one you're after?" Danny asked. "Oh, great. Another ghost hunter. Who hired you?"

Skulker smiled slowly. "Finally! Worthy prey." Weapons appreared all over him and started to charge up. "Tonight I will have a matching set of white-haired hybrid scalps!"

Danny and the 'devil hunter,' whatever that meant, dodged. Hybrid? Danny wondered. Was this guy half-ghost too? "Help me defeat Skulker!" After all, it worked with Valerie.

The man in the red leather coat laughed and jumped off the building, guns disappearing in favor of a massive sword. "If I were you I'd run. You're the one I was hired to catch."

Maybe if he helped him fight he would realize Danny wasn't a bad guy? Danny hung back and watched, however. It would be a good idea to know how this guy fought, right? And once Skulker was weakened he could suck him into the thermos.

Dante wasn't glowing like a ghost, but he was doing things like jump twenty feet and deflect missles and reflect lasers with his sword. A sword that shot out lightening.

Why no ghost weapons?

Skulker could fly, but wherever he went Dante caught up to him, slicing his armor to pieces. "We shall meet again, hunter, and there will be more fighting!" Skulker said finally, and flew away straight into the beam of Danny's Fenton Thermos.

Dante landed on a roof and he and Danny regarded each other. Dante pointed a gun at him, one of the matching set. His weapons all appeared out of nowhere like Valerie's.

"I don't want to fight you," Danny told him. "I only fight ghosts, like Skulker."

Dante laughed. "We're not going to fight. It's going to be a slaughter, kid." And he jumped.

Danny hurriedly went intangible. When Dante's sword passed through him he shivered. It wasn't his ghost sense, but something was wrong. HE felt scared, scared like a rabbit scenting a wolf. But ghosts didn't have any natural predators, right? What would scare a ghost like this?

Confused, he became tangible again. Only to see Dante toss a bottle with wire twisted around it at him. "Let's see how you like holy water!"

He screamed and fell, turning human again.

He tried to push himself up, only to see a gun pointed at his face. "So being human wasn't good enough for you? You wanted power, you wanted to be a god." Dante kicked him. "Sorcerer."

"What? Wait! I didn't ask to be half-ghost!"

Another kick. "How'd you do it? Human sacrifice? Stealing something's power?"

"It was an accident! I hunt ghosts, I'm a good guy! It's not my fault I'm half-ghost!"

Silence for a second. "So you're saying you're just a fucked-up kid trying to fight the bad guys?"

"Yes!" He was staring at the hole at the tip of the gun, he couldn't take his eyes away. What happened to a half-ghost if he died?

The gun disappeared and he was pulled up by his shoulder. "You'd better be telling the truth kid, because I do not like people trying to play me." Blue eyes focused on eyes that had been green. "You have a good explanation for being Public Ghost Enemy Number One? The guy I talked to on the phone said you held the mayor hostage, caused a lot of property damage including at a military contractor's lab…"

"That was a ghost named Walker trying to frame me and a really bad dog. I'm not a bad guy!" He was in so much trouble. This guy knew that he was half-human and what he looked like as a human. Oh man. What would happen when his parents found out?

"Yeah. Sure. What's your name, kid?"

"Um…"

An eyebrow rose. "Look, kid. I could kill you right now and see to it you end up haunting a rock for the rest of eternity. I wouldn't be worried about my secret identity."

"What about you? Skulker said you were a half-ghost too. What will people say if they find out your secret?" Danny glared back.

Dante blinked. "Half ghost? Right. Sure. Let's go with that."

"My name's Danny Fenton." No point in keeping it secret. "My parents are ghost hunters."

"Fenton. As in that-idiot-Jack?" Amusement. "I'd keep it a secret too. He'd probably kill you trying to cure you."

"He's not an idiot!" A pause. "Okay, maybe he is. But he's my dad!"

"I understand about dads, believe me. Look. I got hired to take down Public Ghost Enemy Number One. And I will."

"But I'm innocent!"

"And if you're innocent, then you're not a public enemy, now are you? So." A gun appeared, pointed between Danny's eyes. "I'll be watching you. And if you give me a reason you won't stay undead much longer."

Danny gulped. With his luck… "There won't be! I swear!" Why was his breath red?

"We'll see about that. And I'll be seeing you tomorrow."

"When?"

"When I visit your parents. Since I'm in the neighborhood." A smile. "Hunters should stick together. We'll see what they have to say about you."

"Dante, why are you scaring the kid?" A blonde woman landed on the roof beside them.

The gun disappeared. "He's a ghost kid, Trish."

Danny tried not to stare at the woman's top.

"He doesn't look like a ghost."

"Later. Hey, kid, do you know where there's a pizza joint in this town?"

"Um, three streets that way, turn left and fly for a block." Danny pointed.

"Great." The man jumped off of the roof, the woman following.

"I'm going ghost!" Danny cried out and hurriedly flew off the other way.
