Disclaimer: I wish I owned Danny Phantom! Desiree: -turns me into Butch Hartman- AHHHHHHHHH! CHANGE ME BACK CHANGE ME BACK! -is changed back-

Yeah, there was already a fourth chapter, but I rewrote the entire thing, deleted it and am updating! :D But don't expect this to go fast. I have little motivation for this. This has nothing important in it, but meh.

Danny, Dani and Vlad all sat in front of Walker's desk at four-thirty sharp that Friday afternoon. He glanced through more of his notes before beginning to speak.

"You all know why you're here," he began. "So, would you like me to tell the world about your halfa state or will you make your public announcement?"

"I think we should inform our families first," Dani said slowly. "Tell them our secret, admit the whole truth. In private. Then we let you make the announcement."

"Maybe...maybe it is time to tell my folks," Danny agreed, rubbing the back of his neck.

"I'm against this whole thing," Vlad said firmly. "I do not even know why I am here! I can take care of myself, it's not my fault these two brats can't!" He pointed to the halfas on either side of him.

"Hey!" they both exclaimed, taking offense.

"Look, Plasmius, it's happening whether you like it, or not," Walker said firmly, giving him a glare. Vlad glared back. They kept it up for a few minutes before Vlad finally broke and sighed. "Look, when you can prove you don't need protection, I will reduce your guards."

Vlad sighed painfully.

"Then I'll agree with the female brat," he said, rubbing his temples. Dani gave him a glare.

"Very well," Walker said. He glanced at the clock. "It's Friday. You have until noon next Friday, and then you will gather with me at Amity Park, and I will publicly announce."

"Not to be rude, but I do have school," Dani said, wincing slightly. "Can we do it after school."

"I have school too," Danny reminded Walker.

"I don't get off work until four on Fridays," Vlad added. Walker sighed.

"Fine, we'll do it Friday, same time."

They all nodded in agreement.

Dani took a deep breath before looking up at her family that Tuesday night. Her three older brothers, Matthew, Mark and Luke, were scarfing down food while her younger brothers, John and Adam, were eating quickly so that they could get back to their game, and her parents were eating heartily as well.

"Danielle, is something wrong?" her dad asked. Everybody paused to look at Dani. "You hardly touched your food."

"I'm fine," she lied.

"But hamburgers and fries are your favorite," her mom said, giving a small frown. She reached over and put her hand on her forehead. "Are you feeling ill, sweetie?"

"I'm feeling fine," she said, shying away from the touch. In fact, she felt a bit queezy from nervousness. "I just...I need to tell you something. Something big."

Her eldest brother, Matthew, gave her a wide-eyed look.

"You're pregnant, aren't you?" he accused. Dani looked surprised at him. "Who is the dad? I'll kill him."

"I know a place where we can ditch the body," the second eldest, Mark, spoke up.

"Boys!" her dad barked. He glanced nervously at Dani. "You aren't, right?"

"NO!" Dani yelled, cheeks flushing. "It's something else. It's big, and it's something you really need to keep a family secret."

All of her brothers exchanged curious glances at each other, and her parents gave Dani the same, odd look.

"What is it, sweetheart?" her mom asked quietly. Her dad noticed Dani's worried body language and teary eyes.

"Danielle, no matter what it is, your mother and I will always love you," he assured her.

"That's absolutely correct!" her mom declared, patting Dani's hand. "We did not just adopt you, we chose you because we just love you so much."

This made Dani feel a little better, and she bit her lip nervously.

"First of all, I do know who my parents are," she began slowly. "But what I'm about to tell you is...bizarre. You're probably not going to believe me at first, but I can somewhat prove it. To an extent."

"Well how bizarre is it?" Luke wanted to know.

"It's...bizarre, I'll leave it at that," she said. Noticing her parents' alarmed expressions, she quickly added, "But it's nothing really bad!"

They looked a bit relieved, but motioned for her to continue talking.

"Well, like I said, I know who my parents are. Well...to be honest. I wasn't really...born. I was...created. In a test tube," Dani began. Her mom opened her mouth to comment, and Dani knew it was going to be about invetro-fertilzation, but a desperate look from Dani made her close her mouth and nod at her. "I'm a clone. My "dad" created me from Danny Phantom's DNA because he wanted the perfect half-ghost son."

Her entire family looked at her like she was crazy.

"Do I need to call the mental hospital?" she heard John whisper to his mom.

"I'm not crazy!" Dani yelled at him. He stuck his tongue out at her, which she returned.

"Half-ghost son?" Mark spoke up. "It's impossible to be half-ghost."

"And you look nothing like Danny Phantom!" Matthew frowned. Dani stood, and everybody kept their gaze on her. Rings formed around her body, and she turned into Dani Phantom. Everybody's jaws dropped, and they were in complete silence.

"I'm half-ghost. I'm telling you this because apparently it's a rare species, and this ghost called Walker said that I have to have these weird guards follow me everywhere, and he's going to announce to the world soon that my ghost half, Dani with an i Phantom along with two others are halfas so that they will stop hunting us," Dani continued. "I also thought you guys should know. I understand if you think I'm like, this freak, or whatever but..."

She trailed off, beginning to feel insecure as her family continued to be silent.

"Dude," Luke said slowly, giving a grin. "That's so COOL!"

Dani felt herself flush red as her brothers began to fawn over how freaking awesome their sister was. She glanced at her parents, who were still silent, but no longer giving her a weird look. They had small smiles.

"How...how do you guys feel?" she asked hesitantly.

"You're still my baby girl," her mom said, standing. She walked over and pulled her into a hug. "Even if this...honey this will get some getting used to."

"You'll always be my little princess," her dad said. He followed his wife's lead, picking her up and holding her tight. Dani wrapped her arms around her dad, hugging him back.

Dani grinned, preventing tears of relief from falling.

Danny paced the living room. His parents were staring at him, waiting for him to confess what he needed to tell him. Jazz was nervously biting her lip, the Fenton Thermos hidden under the couch pillow she was leaning against. Worst case, her brother instructed her to suck him into the thermos and run.

He already knew his parents would accept him from the Freakshow incident, but it was still hard to spill the beans.

"Danny, we've been sitting here for a half hour, are you going to tell us before Christmas?" his mom spoke up, becoming a little impatient. Danny took a deep breath.

"I did more than fix your Fenton Portal," he began. His parents looked at him curiously. "And...this is really hard to say. It's a huge thing for me to reveal, and it's just something that is just...difficult to say."

"Danny," Maddie told him, becoming a bit more gentle. "You know we'll always love you, no matter what."

"You didn't get Sam pregnant, did you?" his dad asked suspiciously.

"NO!" Danny yelled. He clenched his hands into fists in frustration. "It's just...God..."

"It's best to just be forward," Jazz advised him. He gulped before taking another deep breath.

"Mom...Dad...I'm Danny Phantom," he said. His parents gaped at him before laughing.

"Oh Danny, that's a good one," his dad chuckled.

"Humans can't have ghost powers, and Danny Phantom is dead," Maddie reminded him, smiling humorously. She nudged Jack when she saw Danny's desperate, nervous expression. "Honey...Danny sweetie, that's just physically impossible."

Danny glanced at Jazz, who gave him an encouraging look. He looked at his parents in the eye and looked himself to transform. His parents gasped in shock, not believing their eyes to see their son where their worst enemy was once standing.

"Danny," Jack murmured, unable to take his eyes off him.

"Oh Danny!" his mom said, tears beginning to fall. She rushed towards him, giving him a hug. "I'm so sorry for hunting you!"

"It's okay, Mom," he said, shifting in her arms. "You didn't know."

"That's no excuse," she sniffed, stroking his hair soothingly. "A mother should know, I should have saw the signs."

"To be honest, I'm just glad you aren't trying to shoot me and still accept me," Danny admitted. Jack walked over and gave him a smile.

"Danny, you're our son. We'll love you no matter what," Jack assured him. "Even if you are Danny Phantom."

Danny smiled, feeling relief completely wash over him. For the first time since he got ghost powers, he truly felt relaxed.

Vlad stared at the person across from him. She stared back. He sighed heavily, and he began to talk.

"I know I should have told you this a long time ago, but I...I just didn't. And...and well, I was never put in this situation because I never had to reveal myself to anybody, so explaining this is new to me. Well, I did reveal to...a certain other halfa, but that's a whole other story," he sighed, standing and beginning to pace in front of her. "I guess I should explain how this happened. Well...over twenty years ago, the portal accident in college caused this, the same thing that gave me the ecto-acne. Caused by that Jack Fenton. I often rue the day. And I must admit to you, dear Jennifer, that I...I did not use these powers for the most...honest intentions. But...I hope you will forgive that, look past it and accept me."

The girl just stared blankly at her. Vlad sighed, holding up his hand. His hand glowed slowly before making a small pink light with his ghost powers, making the toddler squeal and clap her hands happily.

"Of course, you're too little to understand," he spoke to himself, smiling at his young niece as she tried to grasp for the light. Every time she almost got it, it would just pass harmlessly through her tiny hand. "But you were good practice. Now I just need to gather the courage to tell your mother."
