Caption: Aiden's and Lily's training with Danny. Let's just say that Lily nearly blasted Danny's head off.
Flashback- - -
"Okay Aiden, Lily, this is how to aim and shoot an ectoplasm ray. Watch carefully or you'll end up shooting something important." Danny said. He motioned for Sam to toss a white small disc. He then concentrated and blasted a target it just in midair. Sam quickly tossed the other two and Danny shot them again. All of them exploding into tiny pieces. Aiden and Lily just floated there with their mouths agape. Danny then flew towards Sam and gave her a high five.
"We still got it." Danny said grinning while Sam smirked as she saw their children's expressions. Danny then turned to his children.
"Now, your turn. Aiden first." Danny said as he signaled for Sam to throw three discs. Aiden concentrated and blasted the first two but missed the third one. The blast hit the tree.
"Oops… sorry tree." Aiden said as he rubbed the back of his neck. Sam chuckled while Danny shook his head while smiling. He then turned to his daughter who looked slightly nervous.
"Are you okay, sweetie?" Danny asked while Lily nodded smiling at him.
"I'm fine, dad." Lily said as she shook off her nervousness and floated towards the center. Once she got there, she bit her lip.
"What's wrong Lil?" Danny asked as he placed a hand on his hip. Sam looked at her daughter who was rubbing a hand over her arm.
"What if, I don't shoot the targets correctly? I might disappoint you, mom and big bro." Lily said while bitting her lip. Danny smiled before floating towards his daughter with Aiden doing the same.
"You will never disappoint us, Lil." Aiden said smiling.
"You just got you powers. It will take months of practicing. You can't expect to do a certain thing right away. You have to learn it." Danny said smiling. Lily looked at her mother who smiled at her warmly before nodding.
"Alright. I'm ready." Lily said. Danny and Aiden stepped aside and watched as Sam threw three discs at her direction. Lily shot the two but missed the third one and shot the ray towards Danny's head who ducked at the last minute. Lily put a hand to her mouth in shock while Sam and Aiden were laughing their heads off.
"Sorry dad! Are you alright?" Lily called as she bit her lip again. Danny laughed nervously before nodding.
"Y-yeah sweetie. I-I'm fine." Danny said making Sam and Aiden laugh even more. He then turned towards them with a mischievous glint in his eyes.
"We'll see if you'll still be laughing after this." And with that, he flew towards Sam and Aiden. Sam ran while Aiden flew away with Lily.
"Hey no fair! You three have ghost powers." Sam said as she crossed her arms towards her chest. Danny just laughed and kissed her.
"Aw… look Lily, mommy and daddy are kwissing." Aiden cooed while Lily made kissy noises. They soon collapsed into fits of giggles. Danny exchanged mischievous glances with Sam before flying up and chasing his children

Danny laughed. Soon, training became play time for them. But after minutes of playing, they resumed back to their training. Aiden and Lily began practice fighting with their father until the late afternoon. Danny promised to take his children to fight ghosts if it was only the Box Ghost, Lunch Lady or Skulker.
Danny sighed before checking his watch. It read 4:00. He then stood up and straightened his clothes before taking the album and making his way towards the door. He grabbed the house keys before going out and shutting the door behind him. Once he got down the porch, the cool afternoon breeze blew gently around him. Danny sighed and looked around him while walking. Children were either riding their bicycles or playing in front of their homes. Danny looked to the other side of the street to see a couple walking while holding hands. Danny smiled a little, he remembered those times when he and Sam were that couple.
While he was walking, some people would recognize him and greet him. Danny would smile and greet them back before resuming back to walking. He arrived at the park in 10 minutes. As he was making his way towards the hill, he saw more children playing and having a good time. He saw two elders sitting on the bench while cuddling and watching their grandchildren play. Danny sighed as he stared at them. He missed those times when he and Sam would do that. The elder man noticed him and called out to him.
"May we help you, good sir?" he asked. Danny snapped out of his thoughts and blushed while looking at the man.
"I'm sorry sir, I just remembered my wife." Danny said blushing madly. The man and his wife smiled.
"Where is your wife anyway?" the woman asked. Danny's nervous smile turned into a small sad one.
"She's passed already." Danny said. The woman's smiled faded as did the man's.
"Oh I'm so sorry…" the man said. Danny just smiled and nodded. Soon, the man and woman's grandchildren approached them.
"Who's that granny?" one of them asked. The woman smiled knowingly.
"This here is the man in my stories, Lucy. The man who saved the planet from a gigantic asteroid." The woman said making Danny smile while blushing.
"No way. That's him? But you told us that he was a teenager. His an old man." A boy said. Danny laughed and crouched down to the boy's size.
"People grow old, kid. Even you." Danny said as he ruffled up the child's hair before standing up.
"Well, we have to go. It was nice meeting you in person, Danny Phantom." The woman said Danny nodded and shook the man's hand before resuming his walk towards the hill. Once he got to the top, he sat down under the old tree and leaned against it. He saw his statue still standing proudly for everyone to see. He smiled to himself before shaking his head and opening the album to where he stopped. He looked at the picture one last time before proceeding to the next.
