Hello again! Something is almost upon us…something I've planned since the beginning of this story. IT BEGINS! Oh wait, first:

Faliara: That is, if Flash is even able to.

Oblitus Angeli: Maybe. Maybe not. Maybe something else entirely. Who can know? (Oh wait me)

SomeItalian: Looking back on it, I actually did make Danny seem like he has PTSD. Though since I'm already here, why the heck not continue? Someone can help him *returns wink*

Dislcaimer: I don't own Danny Phantom or Ultimate Spider Man. I've had enough of these, this disclaimer counts for all from now on.

Chapter 14

Explanations

(Danny POV)

I waited around the next morning for Peter to demand an explanation. It was Saturday, May wasn't home, and neither one of us had anything to do today. Anything expected anyway.

"Explain," said Peter, coming into the room. Finally! I had been waiting for that statement for forever. "You're dead? And how do you keep a human image up? Why didn't you tell me?"

"You mean like how you told me about, um, complications, Spider Man?" I countered, raising an eyebrow.

"That's not important, Phantom," said Peter. "But I want an explanation."

"I'll give you one if you give me one."

"Deal."

"Your theory is very lovely. No, I am not a ghost."

"You're not?"

"I am a ghost."

"But you just said you're not."

"I'm not."

"But then you said you were."

"I am."

"But…never mind, I'm confused. I hope you have a better explanation than confusing me."

"The problem is that you didn't take half ghost half human hybrids into account in your theory."

"But then how are you dead and alive at the same time?"

"Beats me. And for future reference, the proper term is 'halfa.' Do you believe me?"

"Yes…" Peter said slowly. "How did you become like you are? Were you born that way?"

"No," I said. "I'll start from the beginning. My life as it is now started with the push of a button…"

One Long Story Later (You guys all know it)

"Wow," said Peter, looking at me. "Who knew?"

I had told him the story up to Undergrowth, leaving out some parts like Danielle being my clone. I had also left out Dan, and the fact this all took place in another dimension.

"Well, I guess it's my turn to tell you what happened to me…"

One Long Story Later (Again, you all probably know it)

I was very sympathetic to Peter that he was the reason his uncle died. My family almost died once from Dan and they had died later because I wasn't fast enough.

"I'm sorry about your uncle," I said. "I can never understand because I didn't know him, but I at least know your situation."

Peter looked at me with sad eyes. "Thanks. Can we maybe change the subject?"

"Sure."

"What about Dan? He wasn't mentioned in your recount, and you obviously know him. Nor was Dani. And from your names, it's obvious you're all connected somehow."

"Yes, I suppose I did leave out that part. Dani!" I called.

"Yeah?" asked Dani, appearing in the doorway.

"Do you mind if I tell him about…you know? He found out about Phantom," I said.

"Oh, he did? Well, if you're going to tell him, I'm glad you asked me first. I'll stay for it," said Dani, sitting down on the couch next to me.

"Tell me what? What else have you been hiding?"

"Oh, well, what relationship do you think Dani and I have?"

I saw the look on Peter's face and reassured him, "It's not romantic. We're related, more closely than you think."

"My guess is fraternal twins."

"Nope."

"Well, I have trouble believing you're anything but siblings. You two look like opposite gender forms of each other," said Peter.

"And that's the mark!" said Dani.

"What?" asked Peter.

"We're not siblings, I'm Danny's clone," said Dani, taking on a more serious expression.

"What? You're not serious are you?" asked Peter.

"Dead serious," said Dani, then she giggled at her unintended pun, becoming the light hearted girl I knew again.

"Well, I can believe that. You two look exactly like each other."

"Yup. Even though I didn't want to be cloned, I'm glad that Dani exists."

"If Peter knows about your ghost half, he might as well know about mine," said Dani.

"Both of you are halfas? This is one powerful household."

Dani stood up and transformed in front of Peter. "Well, I do have one! I'm going to go get something to eat," she said, phasing through the wall to get to the kitchen.

"Alright, now that I know that fact, I want to know about Dan," said Peter once Dani was gone.

"Yes, I suppose you should know. I only beat Dan before with Clockwork's help, so additional hands on deck would be appreciated next time we face him."

"So, what's the deal? You guys look similar too. Is Dan a failed clone or something?"

"Worse."

"How could it be worse?"

"Dan is my future self in the timeline with the Nasty Burger explosion."

"DAN IS WHAT YOU"RE GOING TO GROW INTO!?"

"No. I will never turn into him. I promised. He's my future from the timeline with the Nasty Burger explosion."

"Promised who?"

"Everyone I care about from my old life. I suppose while I'm at spilling everything, I should let you know that Amity Park was in a different dimension."

"You're from a different dimension?"

"Yup. I'll explain that and Dan now…" I said, tears once again threatening to surface at the memories that came with Amity Park.

Two Stories Later

"Suddenly your journal makes sense."

I sighed and ran my hand through my bangs, but stopped when I saw unusually bright light emanating from the window. I went over to investigate and saw unimaginably bright light coming from the very same park I arrived in.

"Peter," I said. "Duty calls."

(Dan POV)

The power…I could feel the sheer power wash over me. Nothing and no one would be able to stand in my way. Clockwork wouldn't be able to meddle.

Danny Phantom could be destroyed.
