Jack and Danny had returned home and sat down on the hill as the sun started to set. Danny continued to look down feeling hurt and guilt over what happened. Jack then broke the silence, "Danny boy, you shouldn't let those things they said back there…."

Danny stood up and cut in, "But dad they're right! I am a freak! I try to fit in here with everyone, I really do but….I just can't"

He looked out into the distance and then continued, "Sometimes I feel like….like I really don't belong here. Like I'm supposed to be someplace else"

Jack got up and walked over and then tried saying, "Danny son…"

Danny however walked away and said, "I know it doesn't make any sense. I'm gonna go for a walk for a while"

Jack didn't stop him, he then started thinking about something about what he said and realised that he may be right.

Danny walked to the edge of a hill where it met the ocean and picked up a small stone and skipped it along the water as he thought about what he said to his father. Who was he? Where did he belong?

DANNY

I have often dreamed of a far off place
Where a great warm welcome will be waiting for me
Where the crowds will cheer when they see my face
And a voice keeps saying this is where I'm meant to be

As the day turned into night, Danny turned into his ghost form and then flew up to one of the tree branches on one of the larger trees and sat on it, he looked up at the stars and kept on thinking about one day finding out where he truly belonged.

I will find my way
I can go the distance
I'll be there someday
If I can be strong
I know every mile will be worth my while
I would go most anywhere to feel like I belong

He then returned to the house and changed back into his human form as he landed, he then walked over to find his parents standing in the doorway. Maddie looked like she had been crying as Jack held her close in comfort.

"Danny there's something your mother and I have been meaning to…to tell you" Jack said.

They all sat down in middle of the room near the fire place, Jack and Maddie had finished telling him that they adopted him after they found him as a baby on the ground, the snakes attacking and him taking care of them.

"But if you found me, then where did I come from?" Danny asked still getting used to the information. "Why was I left here?"

Maddie pulled out his medallion from a cloth they found and handed it to him as she said, "I don't know sweetheart but this was around your neck when we found you"

Danny looked at the medallion, he flipped it over and read his name as well as the phantom part and recognised the symbol on the front of it as she finished, "It's the symbol of the ghost-gods"

Danny smiled as he stood up and said, "This is it! Don't you guys see? Maybe they have all the answers. I'll go to the Temple of Fright Knight and…"

He paused and he turned back to his adoptive parents who were smiling proudly at him. He hugged them both and said, "Mum, dad you two are the greatest parents anyone could have but…I-I gotta know"

"We know son. I just want you to know, we are so proud of you no matter what you decide or where your road leads you" Jack said as he hugged him back.

Maddie smiled and shed tears down her face. Danny then said, "It's okay mum. I'll come back and visit. I promise"

She placed a hand on his cheek and said, "Never forget this, no matter where you go or what they may call you, you will always be my son"

He nodded and then they both shared another hug, Jack then joined in and it became a group hug.

Early in the morning, Danny was all set to go for his journey. Maddie wrapped a shawl around him and they all shared one last hug, they pulled away and then Danny started walking off as Maddie cried again.

Danny turned around once more and smiled as he waved goodbye to them once more, they waved back and continued to smile proudly at him as he started his journey.

DANNY

I am on my way
I can go the distance!
I don't care how far
Somehow I'll be strong

Danny had crossed through fields, forests, walked through rain storms and finally after four days of walking, he had finally made it to the Temple of Fright Knight as night had fallen.

I know every mile will be worth my while
I would go most anywhere to find where I belong

Danny walked in the temple and was amazed by the giant stone statue of Fright Knight sitting on a throne, Danny looked at his medallion around his neck and looked to see that it matched the one on the statue's toga.

Danny removed his bag and then kneeled down and prayed, "Oh mighty Fright Knight, please hear me and answer my prayer. I need to know. Who am I? Where do I belong?"

Suddenly a breeze of wind flew into the temple and then suddenly ducked down as lightning struck and hit the statue, flames on the lanterns suddenly came alight, and Danny looked up and watched in shock as suddenly the statue came to life.

Fright Knight smiled warmly at Danny and then said as he reached down to grab him, "My boy. My little Danny Phantom"

Danny suddenly freaked out and screamed in fear, too scared to change into his ghost form he started running away but Fright Knight managed to grab him in his stone hands and pick him up from the ground.

He continued to panic as he held him in his hands as Fright Knight said with a chuckle, "Hold there kiddo what's your hurry? After all these years is this the kind of hello you give your father?"

"F-f-father?" Danny asked feeling completely shocked.

Fright Knight held him up near his face and looked him over as he said, "Didn't know you had a famous father did you? Well surprise. Look how you've grown, you definitely got your mother's kind personality and my strong chin"

Danny blushed for a second but then said, "I don't understand. If you're my father…."

His eyes then widened as he finished, "That would make me a…."

"A ghost-god" Fright Knight finished. "Well now half ghost-god and half mortal now"

"This is….is a lot to take in" Danny said as he sat down in his palm. Fright Knight then said, "Well you wanted answers and by thunder you're old enough now to know the truth"

"But why did you leave me on Earth? Didn't you want me?" Danny asked.

"Of course we did son. Your mother and I love you with all our hearts" He answered with a smile. His smile then turned to a frown as he finished, "But when you were a baby, someone stole you from us and turned you mortal and only ghost-gods can live on Mount Olympus"

"And you can't do a thing?" Danny asked.

"I can't Danny but you can" Fright Knight said. Danny perked up and said, "Really? What? I'll do anything"

"Danny if you can prove yourself a true hero on earth, then your ghost-godhood will be restored" Fright Knight said.

"Awesome!" Danny said with determination. He then looked confused and asked, "Exactly how do you become a true hero?"

"First you must seek out Theodore, the trainer of heroes" Fright Knight instructed.

Danny nodded and then he yelped as he accidently fell off Fright Knight's hand, luckily he grabbed him and set him back down on the ground as he said, "Woah there! Hold your horses! Before you go, there's someone who has been waiting to see you again"

He whistled and then a star fell out of the sky and flew inside the temple, it suddenly burst into a bright light and now flying in the air was Cujo! He was no longer a puppy, but now he was a large fully grown dog.

He barked happily at the sight of Danny and landed in front of him as Fright Knight said with a chuckle, "You probably don't remember Cujo but you two go way back son"

First Cujo sniffed Danny and then suddenly head-butted him causing him to sway a little, he then licked Danny on the face causing Danny to laugh and then he hugged his dog as he remembered him and said, "Hey boy. It's so great to see you"

Cujo barked happily. Fright Knight then said, "He's a magnificent dog with the brain of a bird"

Cujo for one second acted like a bird, but then he realised what he was doing and made a confused face. Danny then jumped on the back of him and he took to the air and floated in front of Fright Knight for a second as he said, "I'll find Theodore and become a true hero"

"That's the spirit" Fright Knight said proudly. Danny then said with determination, "I won't let you down father. I promise"

"YEEEEEHAWWW!" Danny cheered as Cujo then took off and flew out of the temple. Fright Knight then said as he watched them leave, "Good luck son"

Lightning then struck once more, the torches went out and the statue remained still once more. As Danny rode on Cujo's back, he felt more determined than ever to achieve his goal as the sun began to rise and as they soared through the clouds.

DANNY

I will beat the odds
I can go the distance
I will face the world
Fearless, proud, and strong
I will please the gods
I can go the distance
Till I find my Hero's welcome
Right where I belong
