The woman looking at him. "So, you cheated?" ask her.
"No. I just said, I am going to… but-but…" The boy's trembling. "But-… suddenly I taken to my future, and I met with evil version of myself…" Danny sobbed, still trembling. The woman hold his hand and wipe his tears with a new tissue. The camera zoom on Danny's face.
"Then I…I…" Danny paused. "I-I…. I am scared… I can't go back to the present, Sam and Tuck already back since they're…" the woman stopped Danny.
"Wait, you're saying you're going to the future?" ask the woman. Danny nodded. "How on earth you can did it?" ask the woman.
"I-… we,… we're taken…" the boy sobbed. The woman and the TV cameramen think maybe he is some short of crazy, daydreaming, and else. But they let Danny to continue his story, just to make his heart better. "Okay, continue." She said.
"T-then… he put me tied.. in-into… t-the ghost z-z-zzone…" Danny sobbed again, another tears fell from his cheek. "I-… finally I can go back, but… but… I am too late."
The woman and cameramen looking at his face. Danny's face suddenly turned into somehow anger. "H-he got my family and friends on the tank! He tied them up! I fought with him! Then I got him into the thermos! But I am too late to save my family and friends!!!!" Tears burst up from Danny's eyes. The woman try to calm Danny down.
"Calm down, calm down. Then, what happened?" ask her.
"I-… I see the tank exploded, they're all dead… they're all gone… I am now alone…" Danny sobbed, the woman wipe his tears with the tissue again. "Oh, I am sorry for you Danny,"
"…t-t-thanks…" Danny sobbed again. The woman still wiping Danny's tears. Then change to a new tissue.
"But, I just not understand… What do you mean, evil future? You fight with him? How you can do that?" ask the woman. "And what's evil with it…? It probably daydreaming. What on earth could tell you your future?" Said the woman. Danny's eye widen then he is fired in anger.
"HE IS MORE THAN IT-! HE IS REALLY EVIL! HE WANT TO KILL MY PARENTS AND FRIENDS-… HE EVEN ERASE THE 'N' AND 'Y' FROM MY NAME! HE PUT 'DARK' IN FRONT OF IT!!! HE CALL HIMSELF…" Danny paused as his eye widened more, "…Dark… Dan… Phantom…" the woman hold Danny's hand, let him to sit down.
"Calm down, Danny. Calm down." Said the woman. "That's just fine! Nothing bad will happened." Said the woman.

I WILL NO LONGER BE DANNY FENTON. I WILL TURNED INTO HIM! INTO… Dark, Dan Phantom…!!!" the woman calm down Danny once more.
"Wait, wait, wait, there's something weird of your story." Said the woman.
"What?!" ask Danny, his eye still widened.
"That's just strange. Isn't it? You said you're going to be him." Ask her.
"Yes." Danny nodded in horror. "But I don't want to! I don't want to be him!!!" he said. The woman try to calm Danny again. "Calm down, Danny." Danny sit back, still in horror face.
"You're saying your future…? Your future you will be him?" ask her.
"That's right." Still in horror face, Danny answer the woman, who still hold his hand, to calm him.
"What did you say his name was?" ask her. "Dark Dan Phantom?"
Danny nodded, nervously. He is shaking, his eye wide, his face just like when he see a ghost, or a horror movie.
"That's impossible. You know? You're not going to be him. It's impossible for someone to know their future, travel to them, meet with their future self, or maybe evil future self. Then travel back to present, fight with their evil future self." Said the woman.
"B..B-b-but it's really happened to me!" said Danny.
"Danny, calm down." The woman try to calm him again. "It's impossible you know? You said Dark Dan Phantom? It's really impossible for you."
Danny looking at the woman who looking at him. "You think who you are? Danny Phantom?" Danny looking at the woman, the woman smiling at him. Then try to comfort him more.
"You're not going to be like that. Unless you're Danny Phantom." Said the woman.
Danny take a deep breath, he's calmed. His eye back to half-opened, "You're right…"
The woman smile, Danny sighing. "I am not going to be like that." He said. The woman start to smiling more, but suddenly Danny looking at her, the woman surprised seeing Danny's eyes. When it suddenly glowing green. Danny continue talking "Unless…"
Two rings start appearing from Danny's chest. The woman gasped, she is shocked as the cameramen shocked as well. They quickly pointing the cameras on Danny to get his picture. The rings start change Danny's clothes to a black and white suit with 'DP' logo, and change his hair into white.
