Chapter 1: The Transformation

A/N: This is my first attempt at writing fanfiction. Please let me know what you think.

Disclaimer: I do not own Danny Phantom. Only the character Ana Morphis is mine.

Plasmius was flying through the ghost zone in search of the Realm Beyond Time, or more specifically, the ones who lived there. He was in search of the band of spirits known as ancients, who were told to have limitless power, but each one had a different power. A few that were known of were shape shifting, creating mystical weapons, and sorcery. The grand prize, however, was a spirit who was rumored to be able to change any being into any other creature.

Now you might be wondering what he would do if he found this spirit right? Truthfully, he didn't even know if he could get this spirit on his side…

Danny's POV

Me, Tuck, and Sam were walking to the Nasty Burger after school ended. We were almost there when my ghost sense went off. I said, "Guys, I'll be right back", and ran into an alley. Before I even got a chance to "Go Ghost" I was hit by a bright pink blast. As I hit the ground, a caped figure stepped out of the shadows and looked down at me. "A little slow there, Little Badger?" the figure asked. "What do you want Plasmius?" I hissed as I stood up and morphed into Phantom. "Tsk tsk, are you always this hostile Daniel?"

"Only when I'm attacked by a bitter old man who needs a cat!

"Well what would you think if I did get a cat?

"Wait, what?" Now I was really confused. Vlad was actually considering my advice on getting a cat? That was definitely weird. Vlad would never take my advice, especially about something like that. Then another shadow stepped out. It looked like a white griffon with glowing red eyes, but it had dragon wings instead of eagle wings and the mane and tail were made of fire.

"Well hello child, I'm Ana Morphis, the spirit of creatures." "Ana Morphis? Are you related to Amorpho? Your names sound a lot alike" I replied. "The boy is a bit slow isn't he Plasmius? Are you sure this is the one you want?" Ana asked. "Of course I'm sure!" Plasmius spat. "The one you want? This isn't about me becoming your son or evil apprentice or whatever is it?" I asked, annoyed. Seriously, couldn't this guy just take "no" for an answer? "No, actually, it's not." Plasmius replied, "I've decided to take a different approach. Ana Morphis can change any being into any other creature." Suddenly it clicked. Vlad was getting a cat by turning ME into a cat! "No way! You are so not doing that!" I shouted.

I decided I didn't want to find out if he was serious. I went invisible and intangible and fled. Or rather, I tried to. A large pink ectoplasmic bubble had trapped me. Then electricity sparked from it, shocking me, but not enough to make me lose me ghost form. The bubble shrank and turned into rope, holding me immobile and defenseless sitting on the ground. "Quickly Morphis, before he escapes!" Ana moved forward and placed one clawed paw on my head and with the other pulled out a small orb with images of different creatures floating in it. she turned me to face the crystal and my mind grew fuzzy, although there was something there shouting "Danger!" The crystal began to glow a bright blue, then I knew no more.

Vlad's POV

Ana has begun the process of changing Daniel into a cat. I knew that the change would infuriate him once he woke up, but I would be able to at least neutralize his ghost powers with a little trinket of mine to prevent him from attacking me or trying to escape. A voice interrupted my thoughts saying, "It is done, I shall leave now." And with that, Ana Morphis vanished in a puff of blue smoke. I looked down to see a small cat lying on the ground. The ecto ropes were nearby, but quickly vanished. I floated over to the cat to make sure he was still my Little Badger. He seemed fine, so I put him in a small pet carrier and took off for Wisconsin.

Sam's POV

"Tucker, Danny's been gone for a while; do you think we should go look for him?" I nagged. "Nah, he probably just went to drag the Box Ghost back into the Ghost Zone or something." He replied. "Sure, I guess. But if he's not home by tonight something's up." "Fine, if he's not back tonight we'll go look for him."
