Author's Notes:

AHH! Too many reviews! You guys are reviewing faster than I can type! But, don't stop reviewing, I'll just make it so I won't write chapter six until I get 30 reviews. :) Anyway, I'm sorry I left you at a real cliffhanger. I promise you'll enjoy this chapter!

Chapter 5: What the Heck?

Timmy stared at his new friend. His hair had turned white, and his green eyes were glowing in the dark. He was wearing what looked like a black jumpsuit with white gloves, boots, belt, collar, and a funny white symbol on his chest.

"Whoa! That was so awesome! What happened?" Timmy asked. He was so shocked and surprised. He could still see white spots behind his eyes from when the glowing white rings had suddenly flashed.

"Uh...uh...uh..." Danny looked down at himself, and then looked at Timmy's reaction. "Umm...I don't know what that was," Danny lied.

Timmy crossed his arms and tapped his foot. "Yes, you do! How did you suddenly change like that?" Now Timmy knew for sure that Danny didn't have fairy godparents because he didn't hear Danny make a wish.

"Well... It's a really long story..." Danny then slapped his face and groaned. "You weren't supposed to see that! Why did that have to happen?" he shouted at himself.

Timmy felt sympathy for Danny. What if his situation was like his own? What if now that he'd exposed his secret he'd lose his whatchamacallit power? Timmy knew that if he'd exposed his fairies he'd lose them.

"Why couldn't you've just told me your secret? What exactly is it anyway?" he asked the moaning, now white-haired boy.

"Well, I'm half ghost," he said after he'd calmed down, "and if people found out my powers, they'd dissect me or something, take me to a lab and try to figure out how to make other super-humans!" Danny said.

"Wait, hold on, half ghost? Is that what you are?" Timmy asked in amazement.

"Yeah."

"But, how is that possible?

"You know, there's more than one way to create ghosts," Danny said. "I was in this accident, and... well, I was fused with ectoplasm, the substance that ghosts are made out of. I sort of half died, it was an electrocution, and ever since... I've been able to turn into a ghost and have ghost powers. Sometimes they're hard to control."

"What powers do you have?" Timmy asked, still not totally used to the facts.

"Well, I'm super strong, and I can fly, I can turn intangible, go invisible, duplicate myself, I can control and conjure ice, shoot ghost-rays, and I have this special power that I call the Ghostly Wail, and you do not want to come across me when I'm doing it." Danny told him.

Whoa. That's a lot of powers. "How come?" Timmy wondered.

"Well, it would destroy your whole house, for one thing, and it could burst your eardrums."

"Holy cheese. So, you can just turn back and forth from a human to a ghost?"

"Yeah." Danny them remembered he was still a ghost and turned back into Fenton in a flash of light. "In Amity Park, I'm a hero. I fight ghosts that come out of the Ghost Zone."

"Ghost Zone?"

"That's the realm where ghosts dwell. As my ghost half, I'm known as Danny Phantom."

"Do you're parents know your secret?" Timmy asked.

"No. Like I said before, they're ghost hunters, and if they knew my secret..." Danny got lost in thought.

"Can you show me some of your powers?" Timmy requested after a while.

"Well, it's getting late. Maybe tomorrow," Danny said.

"Aww, can't you just show me a couple for now, and the rest tomorrow?" pleaded Timmy.

"Fine." Then he disappeared.

"Wh-where'd you go?" Timmy looked around everywhere.

"I'm right here," came a voice that nearly made Timmy wet his pants. Danny popped back into existence.

"That's so cool! Show me another!"

Danny groaned. He was really tired. He then turned his hand intangible and stuck it through the wall.

Timmy was weirded out. He came closer to Danny, who pulled his hand out of the wall, and put his hand through Danny's. His hand felt all tingly. "Can you turn other things intangible?"

"Yeah, that's easy," Danny said. His hand became solid again and he grabbed Timmy's arm. He turned them both transparent. Timmy's whole body felt slightly prickled. He walked around, with Danny holding his arm, and pulled Danny through the wall into the bathroom. He was thrilled. He'd never thought about wishing for powers like these before! Maybe he should ask Cosmo and Wanda, (who were asleep in the goldfish bowl) in the morning.

They walked back through the wall to the bedroom. Danny let go of Timmy's arm.

"Maybe I could take you for a ride tomorrow. You know, fly," Danny offered.

Timmy then had an epiphany. "So that's what you meant by flying here! You didn't take a plane, like your mom thought," he told Danny. Danny nodded.

They both got back into their beds.

"Thanks for telling, or showing, me your secret, Danny," Timmy said.

It was Danny's turn to have an epiphany. "Wait, didn't you say that you also had a secret like mine?" he asked Timmy.

"Huh? Oh, I thought mine would be like yours, but it wasn't," Timmy said without thinking.

"So, you admit that you also have a secret. I told you mine, can you tell me yours? You owe me," Danny said crossly.

"Maybe tomorrow," Timmy said nervously. He would wish that Danny forgot about his secret once he'd fallen asleep.

Danny still couldn't sleep. He was too worried and anxious about Timmy knowing. He curled up and slowed his breathing in hopes of falling asleep.

After a long time, Timmy was sure Danny was asleep, (he wasn't). He sat up and tapped the goldfish bowl that Cosmo and Wanda slept in. "Wanda, Cosmo, wake up!" he said, just a bit too loudly. Danny could hear every word Timmy said.

"Guys!" Timmy's voice came from across the room.

"Alright! Alright! We're getting up! What time is it?" said another, woman's voice. Danny was incredulous. Where did that person come from? The door didn't open!

"Who's there?" Danny called.

"Uh, nobody!" said the voice again. Danny made an ectolight in his palm. The room glowed from the green substance. Danny spotted a tiny, floating, pink-haired woman wearing a crown, along with a floating man with spiky green hair wearing a crown a black tie. They had frozen, hearing Danny's voice, and Timmy had a look of dread on his face.

Danny yelled, "Ghosts!" jumped out of bed and changed into ghost form. He crouched down into a fighting stance. The three others looked bewildered.

"Timmy, why are there other ghosts in your room?" Danny asked cautiously.

Timmy looked relieved for some reason. At least Danny thought they were ghosts and not fairies, otherwise he'd have to give them up.

"Well, they're my, uh...friends. They visit sometimes," Timmy fibbed.

"Why are there ghosts in Dimmsdale?"

"Why are there ghosts in Amity Park?" Timmy contradicted.

"Good point. Well, who are you?" He turned to the floating figures.

"Uh...I'm Wanda, and the weird one is Cosmo," said the woman with the pink hair.

"Hi!" the one called Cosmo said.

Danny gave a small wave. He immediately knew that these guys were friendly. He was comforted at the thought.

"So, you guys have known each other for a while, I presume?" he asked.

"Yeah, we're pretty close," Timmy said. Timmy cursed himself for not talking more quietly. Now it was too late to wish for Danny to forget his fairies.

Timmy looked over at his digital alarm clock. It said 3:16. "Wow, It's getting late. We better get some sleep," Timmy said quickly before the conversation got too deep.

Danny agreed. Cosmo and Wanda disappeared, which wasn't totally new to Danny, for he could do the same thing.

The two boys lied back down in their beds and were finally able to fall asleep.

Not much of a cliffy, but I bet you're all wondering what's going to happen next. I really hope you enjoyed this longer chapter! Remember, I'll write chapter 6 when I get 30 reviews. Thanks so much for all the reviews so far!
