Hello, if you didn't read the summary this is my first fan fiction, so I hope you enjoy! Oh, also, in this timeline TUE occurred after D-Stabilized, but Danny was still 15 when it happened.

Disclaimer: I do not own Danny Phantom or the Teen Titans; if I did they would have never been canceled.


No One's P.O.V.

Deep in the Ghost Zone Clockwork watched a scene play out before him on one of his viewing screens. It was the day Danny fought his future self. Clockwork felt a pang of guilt again as he saw Danny's friends and family die. He knew he could have saved them, but he also knew for the better future Danny had to leave. Not for the first time Clockwork wished that there was another way, but he knew there wasn't.

"Clockwork!" Clockwork sighed and turned around to come face to face with a pair of angry Observants.

The omnipotent ghost replied in an annoyed voice, "Yes?"

The first Observant said angrily, "The boy is still a threat!"

The second Observant continued, "He could still become evil!"

Clockwork shifted to his middle age form and countered, "There is always a chance for one to become evil. I have merely placed him on the path with the greatest reward."

The first Observant, still angry, said, "That requires the greatest risk!"

Clockwork frowned slightly, "To your selves?" Unable to form a counter the pair stood there fuming. Clockwork shifted to his old man form and said, "I know what I'm doing. Now, care to observe the door?" The Observants, though still angry, complied and left the room. When they left the room Clockwork shifted to his toddler form and looked at a beaten up thermos on a shelf. If one looked closely enough they would be able to see a hairline fracture on the thermos, as if something was trying to break out.

Shifting back to his middle age form, Clockwork looked back at his view screens. One of the images showed Danny with five other teens. The image faded to show a city with a space ship preparing to vaporize a city. And in the last one showed the same city with smoke entering the sky line and a figure laughing maniacally in the sky, shooting the city with green energy beams.

Clockwork muttered, "Everything is the way it's supposed to be." But just because it was the way it was suppose to be, didn't mean he liked it.


Danny's P.O.V.

I sighed as I walked the streets of the city I was in, I think it was called Jump city. I didn't really pay attention to names anymore since I went through almost seven cities each month. Waves of guilt and anger coursed through me as I remembered why I was running, because my family and friends (and Mr. Lancer) died almost a year ago when my evil future self came to the past to solidify his future.

I had promised them I would never become Him, and I knew to become Dan I had to go to Vlad. So I ran, I ran away from the only life I knew, my past and my future. I had to hide from Vlad and his cronies, so I always wore a black hoodie with white lighting streaks on the arms, along with black jeans that tucked into black combat boots.

My heightened hearing picked something coming from the sky. I looked up to see a green streak hit the ground a few blocks away at lightning speed and create a large green cloud that quickly dissipated. I stood there for a minute debating whether I should investigate or not only to be hear the sound of people screaming. Making up my mind I ran in the direction of the sounds only to come to street that looked like a war broke out.

I first noticed the smoking crater in the middle of the street, but my eyes were drawn towards a small group further down. A teenage girl with long red hair, her hands in what looked like handcuffs, and glowing green eyes fighting a teenage boy with an outfit that made him look like a Christmas tree. I watched in fascination as the girl, who I believed was an alien, based on the fact that she had super strength and glowing green eyes and the boy, who I realized was Robin, Batman's apprentice, duke it out on the streets.

Robin was good, I gave him that, but he was at a severe disadvantage, as he was fully human. "I may have to intervene," I thought as I watched Robin get thrown across the street. My eyes widened as I saw the girl jump up and prepared to hit Robin full force, only to be knock to the side by a green… ram? I raised an eyebrow in confusion as I saw the ram transform into a green boy in a purple and black jumpsuit with a ridiculous mask on. "Ah, a shape shifter, I haven't seen one of those since Bertrand."

I groaned internally as the boy and Robin talked oblivious to the fact that the girl was recovering. "You don't just stop fighting to make small talk," I thought. The two boys finally turned their attention to the girl who was lifting up a bus to chuck it at them. The two dodged the bus, only for another guy in a hoodie catch it and throw it to the side.

The new guy yelled out angrily, "Yo, whose been messing up my neighborhood!"

The green boy said accusingly, "She started it." "Great," I thought, "A joker." The girl began walking up to the trio only to hit her cuffs on the ground hard enough to shake the street. The parts that held her hands fell uselessly to the ground. I cocked an eyebrow at this, "Why would she do that unless…" As the girl raised her hands I anticipated what was going to happen next and I knew that the three boys didn't have any defense for it.

My mind set, I transformed into my alter ego, Danny Phantom. As the two rings formed around I took the time to reflect that this was my first time going ghost to actually fight since the accident. My look overall hadn't changed that much, I still wore my jumpsuit and I still had my DP insignia on my chest. The only things I had changed were that I had laced my boots with steel and I had sowed small one inch squares of steel onto the knuckles of my fists, they were small, but with my strength they hurt a lot. I also wore a modified specter defector with a Fenton Thermos and a few other ghost hunting tools in case any ghosts decided to fight me. As the rings reached by head my icy blue eyes became toxic neon green and my raven black hair became stark snow white.

The girl's hands glowed bright green as she flung energy bolts at the trio. I rushed in front of them ignoring their shocked reactions as I raised a green shield to protect us. I grunted as her energy bolts hit the shield with a force that rivaled Skulker's missiles.

When she stopped firing, the four of us charged from the smoke towards the rampaging girl, dodging her energy blasts at the same time. Her energy blasts missed us only to hit everything else, cars building, lampposts, and more were damaged in the girl's onslaught. The four of us regrouped behind the bus she threw. She stopped throwing energy blasts only to sink to her knees. "Probably tired from shooting some many bolts," I thought.

The guy in the hoodie said, "Girl's going to wreck the whole city."

Robin hit his fist into his palm saying determinedly, "I won't let her. I won't lose this fight." At some unspoken command we all charged from our hiding place, only to be stopped by a massive black, raven shaped energy wall. I staggered slightly at the sudden and unexpected increase in spiritual energy.

I was brought back to my senses when a feminine, but cold voice spoke from behind us, "Maybe… fighting isn't the answer." I turned my head to see a girl in a purple cloak with a hood over her face covering it in shadows. She lowered the barrier as we turned are heads to the girl who was still on her knees with her hands smoking.

Robin spoke up in a commanding tone, "Stand down."

The guy in the hoodie asked, "So what, you think you're the boss or something."

Robin replied, "Just give me a chance." The boy backed off as Robin walked towards the panting girl. The girl got up with her fists glowing in green energy and walked towards Robin who held his hands up and spoke quietly to calm the girl. The girl calmed down and allowed Robin to approach her and take her handcuffs off with a tool he got from his belt. My eyes widened to the size of dinner plates as the girl took Robin by the neck and kissed him. After a few seconds she threw him to the ground and said, "If you do not wish to be destroyed you will leave me alone." After she said that she flew off into the sky. Silence took hold of the street until the green boy asked.

"So I'm Beast Boy, who are you?"


I looked over the street and assessed the damage. That single girl had done more damage than a level five ghost.

The boy in the hoodie spoke up and said, "Well, whoever she was she sure knows how to make an impression."

The kid named Beast Boy said, "I think we made a pretty good impression, crazy space girl gone, city saved, mission accomplished."

I spoke up for the first time and replied sarcastically, "Yeah, an entire street in ruins and other damages throughout the city, that's a great first impression."

Robin spoke as he began walking away and said, "Looks like we're done here, I appreciate the help."

The girl asked in a monotone voice, "You're going to track down the alien?"

"I have to find out if she's a threat."

The boy in the hoodie muttered, "More like find out if she'll give him another kiss."

Beast Boy ran up to Robin and asked, "Sir, I mean Robin, I was wondering if you..."

Robin interrupted him and said, "Sorry, I just went solo, I'm not looking to join a team."

"…Need a sidekick," He finished disappointedly. As we all began walking away he asked, "Hey, you guys want to go get a pizza?"

The girl said, "I shouldn't." and continued walking.

Beast Boy asked, "Can you at least tell me your name?"

The girl looked at him and said, "Raven." She continued to walk away from him.

He walked up to me, and before he could even ask I said, "My name is Danny Phantom and no, I do not want to get a pizza with you."

He then chased after the boy in the hoodie, who he aggravated enough to take off his hood and show him he was part robot. Completely unfazed Beast Boy commented on how cool he was, after which the boy who Beast Boy had called Cyborg left. I stopped walking when a shadow came over me, looking up my eyes widened at the sight of a huge alien space ship. The ship flew over the bay and launched a giant capsule onto an island in the middle of the bay.

Cyborg said, "Looks like space girl has friends."

Robin walked up and added, "Or enemies." A large image was projected from the capsule and showed what I would describe as a lizard man.

The lizard like alien began to speak, "People of Earth, we come to your planet looking for an escaped prisoner, a very dangerous prisoner. Do not interfere and we will leave your city with only minimal damage. But if you attempt to assist her your destruction will be absolute." The image faded away as the doors to the capsule opened.

Cyborg commented, "That's a big ship."

Beast Boy said, "And those are some scary looking aliens." Hundreds of the lizard like aliens flew out from the capsule towards the city, searching for their prey.

Raven said, "They told us not to interfere."

I said, "At least we know why she was in handcuffs."

Cyborg asked Robin, "You're still going after her aren't you?" Robin nodded silently in reply.

Beast Boy asked with a fan-boyish glee, "Can we come too?"

Robin faced use and smiled, "I suppose I could use some help, just this once."

The others and I smiled slightly at this, except Beast Boy that is, he had a full blown grin on his face. We began walking down the street when Robin turned around and asked Raven, "You in?"

Raven replied with a hint of sorrow in her voice, "Trust me, I'm not the hero type, if you knew what I really am, you wouldn't want me around."

I felt pity for the girl and said, "Who am I to judge someone based on what they are?" I regretted doing that as everyone turned their attention to me.

Beast Boy asked, "Uh, what are you?"

I looked him in the eye and replied "I'm a ghost." Everyone's eyes widened as I told them this little fact.

Robin asked, "So, you're dead then?" I nodded my head in response, slightly taken back by his bluntness.

I then said grinning, "Now are we going to stand here, or are we going to get to work?" The others grinned in return and we all resumed walking down the street.


We poked are heads around a corner and watched as the aliens wrecked everything in their search for the girl. We pulled are selves back into the alley as Robin said, "Where going to need a way to track her."

Raven spoke up and said, "She's nearby." Everyone stared at her curiously. After looking a little fidgety under our stares she clarified, "I can sense things."

Beast Boy said, "I'll see if I can pick up her scent." He then transformed into a green bloodhound.

As Beast Boy was sniffing around Cyborg spoke, "There's a sonic analyzer built into my arm, if she's around I'll hear it."

I decided it would be a good time to speak up, "Her energy trail is still fresh, meaning she hasn't gone far."

Beast Boy then transformed back into a human and said cheerfully, "I got her trail!" Transforming back into a dog he continued sniffing around.

Cyborg said, "And I can hear her heart beat." We all ran after Beast Boy in pursuit of the girl. We followed him to what appeared to be a movie theater with a huge hole in the wall. The girl was standing there eating all of the food, with the wrappers on them.

Beast Boy decided to announce are presence, "Uh those things taste better without the wrappers." The girl stopped eating and turned around to face us. She covered her hands with green energy orbs and started walking towards us.

We started to back off when Robin put his hands up and said, "It's ok, were friends remember?"

The girl kept the energy up and asked, "Friends, why, for what purpose did you free me?"

Robin still had his hands in the air trying to calm her down, "Just trying to be nice."

The girl looking unconvinced said, "Nice? We do not have this word on my planet. The closest thing we have is rutha, weak."

Cyborg decided to add his two cents by saying, "Well around her nice means nice, and if you want us to keep being nice, you have better explain why lizard king took you prisoner." The girl seemed to calm down as she lowered her hands and released the charged up energy.

She looked solemnly and said, "Not prisoner, prize. The Gordanians deliver me to the citadel, to live out my days as their servant."

I decided to ask, though I probably already knew the answer, "And the citadels are?"

The girl looked at us and said, "Not nice."

Robin walked up to her and said, "Then you're not going with them, not if I have anything to say about it."

Beast Boy decided to speak up and ask, "Uh, don't you mean we?" At that moment an explosion threw use all back onto the ground. When I looked up I saw a large number of the… Gordanians? I think that's what the girl called them, standing in a huge hole in the wall.

We looked at each other as the Gordanians said, "Seize her!" They charged us, and at some unspoken command we charged them at the same time. Cyborg hit one over the head with his fists, while Beast Boy morphed into a Rhino and knocked a bunch of them aside. The alien girl charged through them using her super strength to knock them out. I used an ecto beam to knock a large group out, only to be attacked by another group. As one of the Gordanians lifted his weapon to crush me I turned intangible to avoid the blow. I used their confusion to sink into the ground and come up behind them. I then used my ice powers to freeze them on the spot. Robin used his martial arts to beat up another handful of Gordanians, while Raven used her dark energy to knock another group out.

The battle continued outside as Robin saved the alien girl from being impaled. I was attacked by two of the aliens. I created a duplicate and blasted both of them with ecto blasts. I turned around just in time to see Cyborg leap into the air, but his hoodie and jeans had been destroyed by the alien's, so I saw his half robot body charge into a bunch of aliens and knock them aside.

He was charged by another group only for Beast Boy to lift him up as a pterodactyl, and Raven used her energy to lift up a lamppost and hit them like baseballs. The Gordanians stopped fighting and flew off into the sky.

The alien girl turned to us and said, "I believe your expression is thanks."

Cyborg started to complain, "Aw man, my suit."

Beast Boy decided to cheer him up and said, "So? You look way cooler without it."

Cyborg countered, "Yeah, like I'm taking fashion advice from the guy in the goofy mask."

Beast Boy looked hurt as he asked, "Goofy? My mask is cool." Looking to us he asked, "Isn't it?" We all shook are heads in the negative. Looking hurt he asked, "But, what about my secret identity?"

Raven asked, "What secret identity? You're green."

I spoke up and said, "Yeah that's kind of hard not to miss." Beast Boy tried to form a response, but giving up he took his goofy mask off.

Robin then told us, "This isn't over, now that we interfered…"

The alien girl continued for him, "Troga will strike harder, it is only a matter of …" The girl was interrupted by the pod displaying the image of the lizard alien, who I assumed was Troga as he began to speak.

"Fools! The Earth scum were warned and your insolence will be punished. Your city shall be destroyed!" The image faded as the ship came over the city and began charging what looked like a giant cannon.

Raven looked up and said, "Great."


As the cannon charged up Beast Boy asked, "So, after trashing a perfectly good pizza place and theater, we've managed to make a giant space gecko mad enough to vaporized are entire city?"

I replied sarcastically, "What do you think?"

Cyborg said, "Go team."

Robin, the alien girl, Cyborg and Beast Boy began to argue about whose fault it was; I started to get a headache. Raven must have felt the same way because we both yelled quiet at the same time. Everyone stopped arguing to look at us. Raven smiled sheepishly and said quietly, "Hi." I thought to myself, "Hmm, she must not like being in the center of attention."

Robin, ever the negotiator, said, "Look it doesn't matter whose fault it is, what matters is that we're in it and we will get out of it together." We all smiled and nodded in agreement. Smiling Robin said, "Come on, we got a city to save."

Beast Boy asked, "Uh, how are we going to get on the ship?" That was a good question. "I could turn us all intangible, but we wouldn't make it in time."

Raven answered, "I can teleport us there."

Robin said, "Do it." Nodding, Raven surrounded us in her dark energy and the next thing I knew we were aboard the alien ship.

Beast Boy shivered and said, "Man, that dark energy stuff gives me the…" He stopped as he looked at Raven and hastily said, "Uh, I mean it's cool."

Robin poked his head from the corner and whispered, "We have to get to the firing controls; there isn't much time!" We all started walk, but I looked back and saw Raven standing there.

I walked over to her and asked in a gentle voice, "Mind telling me why you're always alone?"

She replied solemnly, "You heard the kid, I don't exactly fit in."

I smiled and said, "He's green, Cyborg's half metal, that other girl is an alien and I'm a ghost." "Half ghost anyway" "You fit in just fine." She smiled slightly as we continued walking.

After a minute Beast Boy spoke in a worried tone, "Guys I think they know were here." I turned around to see that they had surrounded us. "So much for stealth," I thought sarcastically.


After we beat the aliens that ambushed us to a pulp, we headed towards the control room. As we prepared to take down the door, I heard one of the aliens say that it was foolish of Earth to think six adolescent heroes could beat him. Robin must have heard him too, because when we broke down the door he said, "We're not six heroes, we're one team."

The six of us charged into battle using our respective powers to beat down the aliens. I watched as Raven tried to protect Beast Boy, only to fall on the ground vulnerable. I jumped in the way and shot the alien with an ecto blast, only for him to shrug it off and knock me into Raven.

As I got up I saw the alien had cornered the other three, and that they had no way to stop him and his troops. I realized that I was going to have to use my Ghostly Wail, even if I reverted back.

Getting their attention I yelled, "Hey lizard face! Get away from my FRIENDS." My yell transformed into my Ghostly Wail. As it ripped through the ship the aliens tried to stand their ground, but were either blown back by the sound waves, or the equipment that hit them. I must have broken something important, because the ship fell onto the ocean. I stopped my wail and felt two rings of warmth pass over me and change back to my human form. "Out of power, but totally worth it," I said smiling. Raven and Beast Boy helped me get up as the alien leader walked up to us.

He raised his hand to strike us, only to get blasted in the back and fall to the ground unconscious. Behind him Cyborg's arm was in the shape of a cannon and smoking from the blast.

Cyborg said, "Alright, I'm only going to say this once. Booyah!"


It was morning, and the others and I were on the island in the bay looking at the city. After they had seen me transformed I explained that I was only half ghost. Most of them had a look of awe in their eyes when I told them, but Raven had what looked like sympathy in her eyes. Pushing that thought aside I enjoyed the view and silence.

Raven then said, "That's quite a view."

"Yeah," Cyborg agreed, "Someone should build a house here."

I added, "That would be nice."

Beast Boy then spoke up and said, "Yeah, it be like beach and sunshine."

Raven laughed a little and said, "You know, you're kind of funny."

Beast Boy looked like it was someone said it was Christmas, "You think I'm funny? I know some jokes!" I chuckled at Raven's mortified expression, who in turn glared at me, only for me to whistle innocently.

I then heard a sheepish voice from me ask, "Please, I look nice?" She had taken off most of her armor.

Robin walked up and said, "I still don't know your name."

The girl replied, "In your language it would be Starfire."

We all smiled as Robin said, "Welcome to Earth Starfire."

Starfire then said smiling, "Thank you all for you bravery and help, and I wish to ask permission to remain her, where the people are most strange, but also most kind." I thought I saw a blush on Robin and Starfire as she finished talking.

Raven replied, "You don't need are permission."

Robin then told her, "But if you want are friendship, you got it."

Cyborg then said, "I guess we could all use some new friends."

Beast Boy spoke up, "Besides we made a pretty good team."

I then said, "I can't believe I'm saying this, but I actually agree with you." Once again Beast Boy looked like a kid on Christmas. I glared at Raven as she tried to laugh silently.

Robin continued to speak as he reached for something in his belt. "I thought we might want to keep in touch, so Cyborg and I designed these." In his had he held four yellow communicators.

We each took one as Cyborg continued for Robin, "I made them out of my own circuits."

Robin smiled and said, "When there's trouble, you know who to call." I thought to myself, "Maybe I can be a hero again; just… just maybe it's time for me to start over." As I looked up at the city, I thought excitedly as I made up my mind, "Yeah, Danny Phantom is back!"


No One's P.O.V.

In his tower Clockwork witnessed Danny return to being a hero. For the first time in a long time Clockwork smiled and said, "Everything is the way it's supposed to be."
