Disclaimer: I own nothing except the idea, I don't know who owns Danny Phantom, if there are resemblances to other stories they will either be credited or it is unintentional. There may be crossovers with DC, Marvel, Teen Titans, Bleach so on, I don't own them either, they'll mostly be one shot minor ones, except a few like Tony Stark from Ironman, and Teen Titans, which will stick around.

Note: Ourfavorit efangirl-there's no need to be sarcastic. Even if you were right… :P

This should have been out sooner, but I kept getting distracted … sorry?

(In story author notes)

{Ember, Tony, & Danny}

When in a life and death situation, there is a not uncommon anomaly that occurs of noticing several unimportant and/or not immediately important facts, mostly attributed to the adrenaline making your mind work faster.

This happened to Ember right now, while the main thing on her mind was that there was an extremely powerful ghost that didn't seem happy with her was in front of her she took in several other things.

Danny had grown up quite a bit, was hot, and that he looked good in a tight shirt and leather jacket.

There was what appeared to be a life sized red and gold action figure behind him, pointing a glowing palm at her.

The wall paper didn't match the carpet AT ALL.

As all this went through her head she tried to regain her ability to speak, with moderate success. "H-h-hey Dip-p-stick, what can I-I do f-f-for you?" She couldn't quite contain her shaking, and she noticed Danny smirk slightly at that fact.

Danny's smirk only grew as he saw the dull green glow from her eyes dim slightly more in fear as she saw the smirk. If she was scared she was more likely to agree with him, terrified worked even better.

He took a moment to respond, causing her shaking to increase, and when he did speak he spoke in a whispery tone, quiet but it would have been heard even in a storm, it commanded attention, just like everything else about him often did.

"There are several things you can do for me Princess. (Cue a blush from the shaking girl) The three that come to mind though are #1 decide to be scared and listen or go listless, I haven't the time for you to switch between the two. (Cue glare from the blushing, shaking girl) The second thing would be to take a seat." He swept an arm out and a chair made of some frozen white, metallic material appeared. (Cue a curiosity from the glaring, blushing, shaking girl) "Lastly, read this file, and tell me if you'll meet her."

He threw down a folder containing most of the information they had on Dani, minus personal things she'd need to learn on her own, and let Ember take a step forwards, pick it up, sit down, and read it, while she hoped that she was doing the right thing here.

{Ember's point of view}

'OK, OK Dipstick's back, several DOZEN times stronger than before, and he wants me to read this, alright I can do that." She took a deep breath and opened the folder.

The first thing there were two pictures, they took up the whole page, side by side. For a moment she thought it was Danny before realizing it was a girl, albeit a girl that looked scarily similar to him, and apparently a halfa as well.

She studied the picture and noticed that in the bottom left hand corner of both was a name. The first picture had "Danielle 'Dani' Phantom" and the second had "Danielle 'Dani' Fenton" which kind of told her that not only did she look like the dipstick but was related to him as well.

The next page was a list of attributes, such as ghost-hair-white or human-eyes-blue/ice blue.

The page after was a psych report, which she only skimmed through; there wasn't much on the page anyways. She wouldn't have expected there to be, if she was Danny's relation she doubted he'd let a bunch of important information like that just float around.

The next page was basic medical, such as listing long standing issues (none) and vaccination's. (None needed due to mutation.)

However it was the next paper that caught her eye.

{Back to everyone there}

It took everything Tony had to not burst out laughing at Ember as expressions flitted across her face. First scared, well most people would be facing a pissed off Danny. Than curious on what the folder had to do with her. Than disappointment when she was done and didn't pick up on her part. Than shock when it hit her. And now she just sat there, stunned, looking at the picture of ghost Dani.

Danny, not having much patience with this asked "Are you well enough to talk about this or should I just blast you into unconscious ecto-plasmic mist now?"

That got Ember to look up, she looked like she was going to say something biting, before realizing who she was talking and the fact he probably could follow up on that threat.

Tony interrupted in his normal sarcastic voice "As long as where asking questions, can I ask why all the ghosts I see either look really good or nothing even vaguely human? Are none of you ugly?" Danny looked back and was about to say something when he thought about it. Besides Lunch Lady, Box ghost, and Bertrand all the human ghosts he knew were, or could be considered, relatively attractive, even Technus 2.0 wasn't bad, and the others like Young Blood or Poindexter didn't really count due to apparent age. And Tony had never met most of them. Then again most ghosts had a minimal form of shape shifting, like the ghost tail, so how did they even know if that's what they really looked like in life?

Ember just looked at the 2 wondering what was going on; first she was minding her own business, not hurting anyone, than these 2 just appeared from nowhere, drop a bomb like her being a supposed mother, than start to have a conversation on ghosts and there looks? Were they just here to fuck with her?

Danny and Tony had apparently stopped paying attention and were discussing if death made you more attractive. WTF?

Ember didn't want to, but she had to "Excuse me, tin-man, dipstick, this for real?"

Danny seemed to get offended by that, if his eye-lights getting harsher and his voice gaining a cruel edge had any indication. "Are you suggesting I'd lie about something like this?"

Ember quickly started trying to think of ways to backtrack that statement when Tony interrupted "Hey man, calm down, she's a ghost of TEENAGE rebellion, and I doubt she WANTS to believe this. I know you want to wrap this up, get back to Little One and I know you want to either come back with her, or without her existence being a question anymore. HOWEVER, try to take this slow, let's explain this, what it means, and what you want. That'll make everything go a lot smoother."

Danny seemed to listen, albeit grudgingly. Ember sighed in relief.

You could hear the smile in Tony's voice in his next words "So, I saw a great shawarma place about a 3 minute flight from here, and you know ever since New York those places have had a special place in my heart."

Both ghosts gave him a look, but since he made sense they both took off, well Ember was also eager to get in front of witnesses, even though she doubted that would stop Danny. Tony took off as well and led the way, the ghosts right behind him.

{A few minutes later at the shawarma eatery}

Tony was eating something; to be honest neither ghost was paying attention. Danny was staring at Ember, with his eyes not glowing, but still pure white, meaning Ember had no idea as to his current mood. Ember was shifting, looking at and for all exits; she doubted she'd get 3 feet before he got her, but she was too nervous to focus on much else.

Tony, mouth full, decided to kick off the talk "Sho Danny … *gulp* why don't we start with the who, what, when, where, why and how of all this? Huh?"

Danny sighed and after reluctantly deciding Tony was right launched into an explanation on Dani, mostly the same as what he told most of the time, only he didn't leave the more inane bits out, and he threatened her … a lot.

Ember paid attention knowing this was something she needed to know, or die. She might still die but she figured she had a better chance knowing why she might die than being ignorant.

She had to admit she had several reactions, disgust that Vlad was THAT desperate and just exasperation that he had a "family" a "daughter" and he threw that away. Surprise how he made her and a mixture of fury and curiosity on how he got he got her ecto-plasma to substitute for Dani's female ghost "DNA".

The point seemed to be though, that Dani wanted to meet her, and Danny as her "Pops" was either going to make that happen, or punish whoever topped him. Considering she was the only one who could stop him, she was the one that would be punished.

Ember quickly came to a decision. She'd go, or 2 reasons. One was, admittedly, self-preservation; the other was that she was honestly curious, she had never really wanted to be a mother, but what would a kid of her's turn out to be like?

She looked at Danny and aid "Alright White-eyes, you caught my attention, when we leaving?"

Danny just looked at her for a second, like he was judging her, and she couldn't help but feel exposed, like she was naked and under a microscope. Than her smile and nodded, as if he had gotten his answer. "Let's go Princess, don't want to keep the children waiting."

With that he took off, grabbing her. Tony started yelling at them "Hey, I wasn't done yet! Come back here Phantom!"

Ember couldn't help but laugh, and she heard Danny laugh as well. Maybe, just maybe, this wouldn't be so bad, assuming she survived of course.

That took way to long for not nearly enough … aww well, sue me. Read, review, tell me what you think, and curse my short attention span for causing the huge delay in the uploading of this chapter. The usual.
