Ok, here is an update.
Hope you enjoy the chapter.

Chapter 6

Danny barely slept that night. He had spent most of the night worrying about his family and contemplating leaving Grimmauld Place, but he eventually fell asleep.

When he woke up he realized that today was the day that he was supposed to make his decision of joining the Order or not at their meeting tonight.

He thought long and hard through the morning lying on his back, but then he realized something.

He realized that these people needed his help and he wanted to help. But he still was responsible for defending Amity Park. Not to mention having to be away from his family and friends because of his identity as Phantom here can't associate them in any way.

His heart was telling him that he belonged with his family and Amity Park but the hero complex in his nature was telling him that he had a responsibility of helping people with his powers, and he was needed more here. He also knew that Voldemort has and will kill and threaten innocent lives and Danny couldn't run away and let that happen.

It was a like scale going back and forth between heroism and family values was knocking back and forth in his head.

As Danny was thinking over his decision the image of Molly Weasley fearing for the safety of her family kept flashing in his mind. It reminded Danny of himself when he faced off against Dan. That pure fear that he tried to ignore when he stared into the red eyes of his dark future self.

Danny had finally come to his decision but he needed some help. Danny went intangible and flew to the kitchen to find Molly and the other residents of the House of Black.

When he came into the kitchen he found some of the happiness coming from was gone as she was busy doing some work in the kitchen while the rest were sitting at the table. Danny landed on the ground softly and started to walk up to Molly.

Danny noticed all the others were staring at him. "Harry probably told them about the boggart last night." Danny thought.

When Danny approached Molly she turned around and saw Danny, "Good morning Danny, you OK from last night?" said with concern.

"Yeah, I'll be fine. Um, I need you to do something." Danny replied.

"And what is that." Mrs. Weasley responded.

"I need to talk to Dumbledore before the meeting." Danny said.

Molly was surprised by the request but responded quickly. "Danny you must understand, he is a busy man. Are you sure that you need to talk to him?"

"Yes I do." Danny said in serious tone.

"OK, I'll see what I can do"

"Thank you." Danny replied kindly.

Danny turned around and sat down at the table with the other teens. All of them continued to stare as if they were trying to read his mind, but they couldn't.

"Why do you want to talk to Dumbledore?" Hermione asked in interest.

"None of your business" Danny said seriously but with a smile to show that he still was a friend.

Hermione pouted but got over it, it still was Danny's choice to tell them or not.

"Oh by the way, don't spy on my meeting with Dumbledore with that ear on a string." Danny said quietly.

"How did you know we spied on your first meeting?" Fred asked.

"You made it obvious."

Hours had passed and Danny still ran his plan over and over in his head seeing if there was anything he missed or hadn't thought of. There were also the constant questions against his plan and questions on the worst case scenarios in this plan.

But, everything should be fine if Dumbledore helped him. That was what Danny hoped.

Dumbledore had arrived one hour before the meeting started. He asked if the kitchen and dining room could be used for him and Danny to talk.

Once Danny and Dumbledore were alone in the room they both took a seat. "Is there any way that you could block people from hearing our conversion with magic?" Danny asked nervously.

"Of course"

Dumbledore raised his wand and pointed the wand at the door. He said an incantation that shot a murky wall over the closed doorway to the outer hallway. "That should keep our conversation private. I'm guessing that you've made your decision." Dumbledore said calmly in his chair.

Danny sighed as he took a seat across from Dumbledore. "What do you know about halfas?"

Dumbledore looked a little baffled by the sudden question and answered "I only know that they're a very rare type of ghost and that you are a halfa."

"Well your right, as far as I know there are only three halfas in the world." Danny said.

"What makes you different from other ghosts? What makes you a halfa?" Dumbledore questioned.

Danny sighed and said rather quickly "A halfa is made when a human dies in direct contact with a ghost portal, a portal to the world of ghosts."

"Ahhh, so you and others have died in an accident when touching or working on these portals." Dumbledore questioned.

"Not exactly"

Danny paused before saying "A halfa doesn't fully die in these accidents with the portals"

Danny took a deep breath. 'I have to do this for them' he thought in determination.

Suddenly a white ring appeared around Danny's waist and started to move up and down simultaneously changing Danny's appearance. When the ring stopped at both his feet and head, Danny Fenton with raven hair and blue eyes wearing his normal white and red t-shirt with blue jeans stood in front of the old wizard.

"A halfa is only half dead in these accidents" Danny said sheepishly rubbing the back of his head awkwardly.

Dumbledore stared at Danny with mixed shock and awe. Normally Dumbledore would be composed and calm in any conversion usually already anticipating the conversion and keeping a cool head in any situation, but now he couldn't help but be speechless after what Danny had just done.

"I want to join your Order." Danny said sheepishly, almost disturb by the stare Dumbledore was giving him. He tensed a little bit, having his ghost half ready at any moment to escape if Dumbledore suddenly attacked.

Dumbledore breathed deeply and looked at Danny with a serious stare. "Your revelation as a human changes things. See, we have an age limit in the Order and when I extended an invite earlier I thought you were a ghost who was older than their form. Obviously that is not the case."

"I can't just sit by when innocent lives are being threatened when I have the power to help stop it." Danny said with his teeth grit together. He was happy that Dumbledore seemed to be accepting him, but the thought of hurt innocence made him instantly angry.

"You are very powerful Daniel, and the Order needs someone of talents. That is why I will let you join the Order."

"You need to understand the dangers and sacrifices you must make when being a part of the Order before you fully accept. Being a part of the Order is a dangerous task. You must also sacrifice your time and possibly your life towards the cause. It is very for the faint of heart and I hope that you've thought this through extensively." Dumbledore explained seriously.

Danny nodded and stared into Dumbledore's eyes saying "I understand the risks."

There was a silence between the two before Dumbledore continued. "I'm guessing you have a family back home in Amity Park?"

"Yes, I do. That is why I showed you my human half. I want to join your Order but I also need my friends and family safe while I'm away from Amity Park." Danny explained sadly.

"I'll do all that I can to keep your family and friends to keep them safe." Dumbledore said reassuringly.

Dumbledore gave Danny a small smile before saying "Very well. We have much to plan and discuss at another time but for now, I must meet the rest of the Order and go on with the meeting. We will talk again after the meeting."

With that Danny transformed back into his ghost half and started to walk towards the door with Dumbledore. As Danny began to open the door he paused. "And you won't tell anyone about my secret?" He said hopeful.

"My lips are sealed Phantom" Dumbledore said with a chuckle.

"Dumbledore?" Danny question

"Yes?"

"Thanks, for everything, for not freaking out, for accepting me in the Order, for promising to protect my family." Danny rambled before Dumbledore interrupted him.

"It's no problem at all Danny" Dumbledore said with a smile.

Danny then turned the door knob and opened the door only to find the whole hall was filled with people anxiously waiting for the meeting to start.

And with that Danny flew in the air to the second floor to meet with the others.

Later that night Dumbledore and Danny were both in the kitchen getting talking about everything that needed to be done in the future, like a place to live for Danny, if he should tell his family about joining the Order and other minor issues.
