Hi guys, here's a new story.

This was requested by gaara king of the sand, who asked if there could be a story where the Fenton parents knew from the very beginning that Danny was Phantom, so thanks to gaara for the awesome request and idea.

Thank you very much to caitgirl1 for beta reading at late hours. Lol

Enjoy:)

PS this is just a prologue.

Maddie remembered that day clearly. Too clearly. She had been in the kitchen, Jack was watching the news. Both of them nursing their losses, the portal they had worked so hard on failed right before their very eyes.

A deep sadness, a hollow ache filled Maddie. All of the hours spent in the lab labouring away, for nothing?

All of the time that she could have spent with her children and Maddie had wasted it doing calculations and soldering countless intricate circuit boards.

Then there was the gut wrenching scream.

Maddie dropped the knife instantly, legs rushing her to the lab. Streaks of lightening, a sickly green colour sparked from the failed ghost portal.

Her heart stopped when she saw Danny in the midst of the deadly electricity.

Sam and Tucker watched in horror, maybe in shock. Maybe Maddie was in shock too.

Danny convulsed within the lightening, his back arching painfully.

And then he began to change.

His white jumpsuit flickered to black, his dark hair turned pale. The flashing of it all made her eyes sting and Maddie vaguely felt Jack at her side.

She hadn't noticed his arrival.

All of a sudden the electricity fizzled out, the horrendous, terrifying noise ceased and the quietness was eerie.

Maddie lunged forward, expecting to cradle her dead son in her arms, only to find bright green eyes staring back into hers. The figure fell forward and Maddie instinctively caught him. He was so light, a feather in her strong embrace.

Pale hair was signed and stuck out at wild angles, a truly Einstein look. The boy was cold.

"Danny?" Maddie choked out. What had she done to her son? Was he even alive? Was this even him?

"Mom?" Maddie hugged him harder, it was Danny. It had to be.

Jack reached for Danny's shoulder, placing a comforting hand there.

"What happened?" He asked gently. Danny didn't seem capable of answering, clinging tightly to Maddie like his life depended on it.

"I told him to go inside. I-I-I told him to go inside the portal. I thought it was broken. Oh my god, is he alright? This is all my fault," Sam paced, pulling anxiously at her clothes, purple eyes full of pain and guilt.

"He went inside the portal and it turned on?" Jack pieced together. His face seemed to drain of colour.

"I tripped. You guys, you must have left the switch on the inside on and forgotten," Danny managed to stand up, his legs wobbling.

Green eyes, white hair.

What had they done to their son?

"Danny honey. You have to be completely honest with me. Does anywhere hurt? Do you feel funny or off?" Maddie began to pat him down, looking for injury.

"No Mom, I'm fine. Really. I feel...lighter. And cold, but the cold feels right or something. It's weird," Danny took a few steps, his stride growing more confident with each unsteady footstep.

Maddie couldn't help but stare. Her son shouldn't be alive, yet he was walking away to escape her motherly clutches.

"Guys why are you all looking at me funny?" Danny asked. Sam just pointed to a mirror.

Danny went to the mirror, jumping in fright at seeing his appearance.

"What happened to my hair? And my eyes?" He yelped. A white wave of light erupted from Danny's middle startling him further and Maddie raced towards him fearing the worst.

When the light dispersed there stood her son, Danny Fenton.

The mysterious white hair had vanished, replaced by the familiar black mop, and when he turned around ice blue eyes met her's.

"Whoa," was all Danny had to say for himself, after scaring the life out of Maddie for the second time in the space of five minutes.

"That was awesome!" Sam yelled squashing Danny in a bear hug.

Maddie was positive she was in shock.

It felt like she had just seen a ghost.
