A/N: I know it's been a while but I like to finish my stories before posting them. Should read A Halfa's Best Friend before reading this or you wouldn't understand a few things and I hate repeating my self.

Ch.1 Black Time

It was another normal day well a normal day for the inhabits of Amity Park especially for one named Danny Fenton aka Danny Phantom.

Danny was now in his sophomore year of high school along with his two best friends Sam Manson and Tucker Foley.

School had finally finished for the day and Danny couldn't be happier, although he had spent most of his classes fighting ghosts rather than learning.

Danny, Sam, Tucker, and Spook were walking home hoping the rest of the day would be a ghost free one.

"Three ghosts and all just happen to hit the school, I beginning to think ghosts attack the school because they hate high school" Danny said.

"Well, I agree, I hate high school in fact everyone hates high school" Tucker commented.

"Or maybe the fact that the three ghosts were high school basketball players who were kick off the team, by a former teacher at Casper High, not long before they died, couldn't be the reason they showed up at the school" Sam informed them.

"It's impossible to predict where a ghost is going to show up, some go to a place that was significant to them or their plans and others pick some random place." Danny started.

"Well first they have to get out of the ghost zone" Tucker said.

"Which from what Skeeter says it's only become easier with the Fenton Portal, there was always natural portals out of the ghost zone before the Fenton portal but they were difficult to find and get through" Danny informed. "Sometimes I wish I could go back in time stop my parents from ever making that stupid thing" Danny got out thinking of the normal life he'd have if the portal was never made.

"Face it Danny no human can turn back time" Sam said with some sympathy.

All the sudden a blue mist came from Danny's mouth and Spook's fur stood up as her growled.

"I may not be able to turn back time but I can fight ghosts" Danny said as he looked around to see if any one other than Sam and Tucker was around.

Two rings of light passed over Danny changing him into Danny Phantom and similar rings went over Spook changing him into the white halfa dog.

As soon as they were done transforming a ghost was seen coming toward them and landed in front of them.

The ghost had a cape the outside colored black and the inside silver. He wore a neat looking black suit. He wore silver gloves with a blood red strip running up on either side of the gloves. He also had boots to match and a blood red belt that had a plain black and white clock on the front of it. He had a black top hat on and nicely combed white hair. His eyes were eerie his irises were black and had no pupil. Under each eye looked like tattoos of arrows the one under his left eye was shorter then the one under his right.

"Are you the halfa Danny Phantom?" he said pointing to Danny he asked in a demanding voice.

"Maybe who's asking?" Danny answered.

"I'm Black Time and," he said as he pulled a gold watch attached to a gold chain out of the shirts chest pocket "it's time for you to face me."

"Fine, I'll be happy to fight you and send you right back to the ghost zone" Danny said and Spook barked his own response.

"Now, now, you and your dog are going to fight me? That's not fair" Black Time said.

He pulled up his sleeve to reveal watches running up and down his whole arm.

"What's with that this guy, he must be really observed with keeping on schedule" Tucker said off to the side.

"Kinda like you as Danny's time manager Tucker" Sam teased.

Black Time took two watches off in arm and throws them in the air.

"Come my pets Tick, Tock" he yelled.

The two watches turned into dogs smaller than Spook with watches in the middle of their foreheads.

"Say hello to my watch dogs" BT said then laughed at his own bad joke.

"I better stop him before he makes any other bad jokes" Danny said flying forward at Black Time.

Black Time dodged, and then a ball of light started to form in his hand. He squeezed his fingers around it and the light shot out in either direction forming a pole then a triangle on each end. The light faded from the weapon leaving it black. It looked the two hands of a clock stuck together.

"Attack if you dare" BT shouted as he turned to face Danny.

"Fine" Danny yelled back as he prepared a plasma blast.

While Danny and Black Time were fighting Spook and BT's dogs were fighting their own battle.

Spook was having an easy time dodging the teeth of both dogs. As one of the dogs lunged at Spook he dodged it and grabbed the dog by the back leg. Spook swung his head letting go of the leg sending him forward knocking his canine partner down.

As Spook began to over power his enemies Danny and Black Time dueled.

Danny fired and Black Time blocked it with his weapon then left the ground and flew at Danny. Black Time was swinging his weapon furiously at Danny so fast Danny was only able to keep dodging unable to get an attack in.

On ground Spook was having an easy time with both dogs down. Both of his opponents may have been down but far from out. They both rose from the ground growling.

'Ooooo, I'm so scared' Spook responded.

Then both of his opponents began to glow a ghostly blue then merged them together to form one dog two times the size of Spook.

'Damn it' was the first thing Spook said.

Danny was doing his best to keep from being hit by Black Time waiting for an opening. Then he saw it, he put up is left arm to block the weapon and shot a plasma blast with his right at Black Times stomach.

"Yeah, Danny show that teller of poor jokes whose boss" Tucker yelled to Danny.

As Black Time was blown back Danny flew forward punching him over and over as he fell toward the ground. A few feet from hitting the ground Black Time took a swing with his weapon hitting Danny hard in the shoulder. Danny jumped back and landed as did Black Time.

"Enough" Black Time yelled "return my pets."

The dogs separated and became two separate dogs and turned back into watches and flew back onto BT's arm.

"So you going to go back to the ghost zone with no further fighting" Danny said.

"No such luck Phantom, I merely came to evaluate your skills and you are better that I earlier thought." Black Time stated pulling off his left glove. "I'll go back and destroy you, then I'll return and when I do you won't exist and I can carry out my plans with no one to stop me" BT finished pulling out his gold watch winding it then pressing a button on it.

"O no you don't" Danny said flying forward and knocking him back.

But when Danny did a strange portal opened behind Black Time sending both of them into it.

Spook ran forward to dive in after Danny but as he jumped at the portal it just disappeared into thin air leaving two baffled teens and a dog.

"Danny!" Tucker, Sam, and Spook as said at once.

"Where'd they go?" Sam said in shock.

"Got me" Tucker said in a similar state.

Danny slowly started to regain conciseness. He started rising from the ground, he was dizzy and his head started to throb. He felt like he had been put on spin cycle then hit in the head with a slab of concrete which he might have. He was laying face down the side walk.

Danny was trying to remember what happened but the pain in his head was making it hard. He sat down taking in deep breaths as the pain started to slowly go away.

'That's right I was fighting that freak Black Time, then I attacked him and!' Danny thought to him self when his thought came to sudden realization.

'That portal, I fell in, it was like being in an endless tunnel, weightless and spinning almost like going through the Fenton portal but with a hundreds ticking clocks' Danny said in his mind then grabbing his head as a short pain shot through it.

"Did any one catch the license plate number of that vortex" Danny said out loud. "Wait where was that portal supposed to take me, I'm on the same street and everything looks the same. But where's Sam, Tucker, and Spook?"

Danny decided he should go home and try and figure it out there.

Danny flew off to his house. Usually Danny had no trouble finding his house it did kinda stick out but today was different. Danny couldn't figure it out this was the right street and address but when he left this morning the house still had the op center on it but now it was gone. To add to the confusion two moving trucks were parked in front of his house.

"Okay were we moving and no one told me" Danny said looking down at the scene.

Danny phased through the roof of the house into what he thought was his room. Danny looked around it was almost completely bare except for a bed, night stand, an empty dresser, and a calendar. Danny didn't get it, and then he caught the year on the calendar.

"I don't believe this I'm ten years in the past" Danny yelled not thinking about some one hearing him.

Then Danny saw the door knob started to turn. He quickly turned invisible and stood there floating a foot off the ground.

The person to walk in was none other than Danny Fenton but he was only five years old. He wasn't much different than the current Danny Fenton but shorter, wore jean overalls and a white t-shirt with horizontal red strips.

He was carrying a taped up cardboard box in. All the sudden little Danny gasped, jaw fell open, and he dropped the box he was carrying.

"Who are you" he said in a shaky voice pointing straight at Danny Phantom.

"What you can see me" DP asked.

"Of course I can I'm not blind" LDF said.

"But you shouldn't be able to see me I'm invisible" DP demanded.

"Well, I can see you… and I can see right through you and you're not touching the ground!" LDF yelled with surprise.
