I don't own Danny Phantom or any characters therein

Amity Park: A New Begining

"OK Danno remember while I'm gone to look after your mother" Jack said as he loaded the Fenton RV. Danny replyed "I will dad." as he put the last of Jack's gear in and shut the door. Jack kisses Maddie and says "I guess I'll see you two in about a month or so." he then climbs into the RV and drives off. Maddie says "bye dear" and waves then once the RV is out of sight she tells Danny she needs his help with all the ghost hunting and lab work while Jack is gone. then she adds "besides you're grounded for the next moth for missing cerfew for a week anyway."

Maddie takes a deep breath and sighs then says "Alright sweetie, I need to test you on the obstical course, then we can go on patrol." she then hands him the gear she picked out for him , a Jack-O-Ninetails and a Specter Deflecter. Danny jumped back nearly ten feet away from her, and she look at him confused. then Danny said "I am not using one of those damned specter deflecters!" with more venom in his voice than he intended. Maddie asked "why?" only for him to respond "because it like all your other inventions hurt me, not that you all seem to care." with even more venom. they argued for a good twenty minutes before Danny finally yelled "with my ghost powers I don't need your stupid inventions anyway, beside I have to fix half this junk to get it to work to begin with." Maddie was in total shock then she quitely asked "what have you fixed to make work?" Danny smirks and says " First the portal, then the thermos , followed by the head phones, and the list goes on and on, the only things you guys build right are weapons that cause me pain." Maddie starts to feel bad as she thinks back at how many times their inventions did hurt Danny, or how many times their detecter targeted him as a ghost and they almost blasted him. Maddie asks "How do you fix them sweetie?" Danny sighs saying "I either tinker with it or jump start it with ecto energy, but sometimes Tuck helps by hacking it and finding a glitch in the programing." Maddie was about to say something when some blue mist escaped Danny's mouth, and he looked around then they heard "Beware I'mthe Box ghost." but before Maddie could do anything Danny simply lifted his thermos and captured it.

Maddie was shocked not only had Danny caught a ghost but he did it with ease, and faster than she ever did. this raised a lot of questions, but they would have to wait for later. right now she needed to evaluate him on the course. as lead him to tthe training course she thought 'as clumsy as Danny is this is going to take a while.' when they entered the lab she turned and opened a section of wall to a room back under the house and garage he turns seeing the course he grins knowing Tucker and Sam run a training course harder than this. Maddie says "Just do your best sweetie." then she smirks thinking she will motivate him she adds "If you can clear it in less than eight minutes I'll call of the grounding." knowing it was a good ten minute course. Danny asked "you promise?" and he held out his pinky, she said "Promise" as she locked her pinky with his and shook on it. she tells him to get on the line, then yells out "READY, SET, GOOO!" and Danny bolted.

To Maddie's surprise he cleared the hurdles and dodged the ecto balls with ease, then he bobs and weaves through the gauntlet of heavy bags like Rocky Balboa, then she had to pick her jaw off the floor as he ran across the balance beam avoiding more ecto slime balls, then she realized he was going to do it she became the last obstical. Danny asked what she was doing there only to get told she was the final obstical and he needed to get past her. as she went for a roundhouse Danny vanished on her then knocked her foot out from under her, the next thing she saw was Danny diving over her. in the end Danny made it in five minutes and fortyseven seconds. that blew her record best of ten minutes and twentyfive seconds out of the water, and she couldn't figure out how. she knew he had a major growth spurt and was now working out daily with Tucker or Dash and the football team since the desasteroid six months ago, but still how did this happen.

after Maddie droped his grounding Danny called Tucker to talk some business then they met the football team to train and lift weights. ever since they worked with Phantom to save the world Dash and the team started being nice to them. Tucker was now a regular Mr.T complete with muscles and mohawk to match, add the fact he was mayor it made him rather intimidating. Danny was now as tall as Jack and built like a superhero. while they were working out Maddie was thinking over the day until it finally hit her, the blue mist from Danny's mouth, then didn't Danny say something about having ghost powers. she would have to ask him about them in the morning, until then she would rest and prepare.

In the morning Danny awoke to the smell of pancakes and sausage. when he came down Maddie said "Sweetie we need to talk after breakfast." Danny just nodded as they sat down and ate until they were stuffed. then Maddie had him join her in the living room, she sat on the couch and patted the space next to her. Danny gulped then sat down next to her. they each took a sip of their coffee then Maddie said "Sweetie I have a few questions for you."

NOTE this takes place a month before senior year starts, and only Vlad was revealed in Phantom Planet. this is my first long Danny Phantom fanfic any advice , reviews or just comments would be greatly appreciated
