---------------------------------

'A hero's work is never done.' thought 16-year-old Daniel 'Danny' Fenton, as his breath materialized into an icy blue before his eyes. Which was odd for none other than the fact that it was at least in the mid 70's outside. Not nearly cold enough for others to see theirs. He then looked up from his 'Nasty' Burger and turned to face Technus, self-proclaimed lord of technology (and of long-winded introductions) Standing on his chair in the middle of the restaurant he summoned up two rings of blue energy crying,

"IM GOIN' GHOST!"

The rings appeared around his waist and parted vertically revealing a black HAZMAT suit with white collar, boots, gloves, and his signature P inside of a D emblem. His jet black hair turned a silverish white, and baby blue eyes turned an eerie glowing green. Scrawny Danny Fenton had disappeared leaving his alter ego, the mighty Danny Phantom in his place.

It was a normal almost-fall day. Ghosts attacking, people running for their life. Yep. Another normal day in young Danny Fenton's AKA Danny Phantom's life. The poor young halfa, half-human half-ghost, was struggling to both survive ghost attacks and high school. But ever since saving the world from the dizastoriod and telling the world his secret(1) they were extremely supportive of the ghost-fighting teen. And why shouldn't they be? For thanks to him the whole World had worked together to save their planet from completely being annihilated, no-thanks to a certain ex-billionaire.

Danny's concentration was blown as he realized that Technus had managed to take control of an enormous monster truck. 'Where the heck did he get that!?' was the first thought that ran through his head. The second was spoken out loud and for a very good reason.

"WATCH OUT!!!"

He cried out as he swooped down to rescue a small girl that was stupidly in the path of the oncoming controlled monstrosity.

Deciding that Technus had had enough fun, he swooped out a thermos (which was as random as random can be) and watch with satisfaction as a blue light emerged and swallowed up the technology-loving ghost.

Putting down the girl he had saved, he realized, with a small sadness, that thanks to her raven black hair and large eyes, she reminded him very much of Danielle, his once-unstable clone. But, the girl had the wrong hair-style and differently colored eyes than his 'cousin'.'Dani', as she called herself, had flown off and her current location was unknown.

Which, of course, drove his train of thought to the poor girl's maker. Vladimir 'Vlad' Masters.

Once billionaire of the year and now exposed to the world as none other than the cunning and diabolical villain; Vlad Plasmius. Danny's arch-foe, who had always wanted nothing more than to kill Jack Fenton, Danny's father, and have Maddie Fenton, Danny's mom, as his wife. Thus officially labeling him as Danny liked to call it, a "Fruitloop".

Last seen was somewhere around Saturn, looking, for the first time in his life, dejected as his 'old buddy' flew off and left him, alone. Where everyone, especially his parents, hoped he would stay and not come back ever again. But Danny somehow thought differently. No matter what Vlad had done, he always remembered later what a much older Vlad had told him, once when he had lost the Fenton's, including Jack.

-Flashback-

Vlad: If any good came out of this, its been that the 10 years without ghost powers, gave me the chance to see what a fool I've been.

Danny: Maybe that's what anybody needs... a second chance...

-End Flashback-

'A second chance...' thought Danny forgetting lunch as he flew off toward the building proudley declaring to others as Fenton Works, but known to him as Home. For deep down, no matter how he tried to deny it, he truly thought...

'Maybe... after all this... he really deserves a second chance.'

"Mom! Dad! I'm home!" called out the raven-haired teen as he strolled through the front door. Literally through it. For upon coming up to his house he found it locked up tight. Normally Fenton Works was open 24-7 in order to welcome those who needed ghosts dealt with. Of course no one actually came, but nonetheless it was normally unlocked.

It was eerily quiet inside as Danny found. All the lights were out so that the door was the only light source, lengthening Danny's shadow across the entire living room. Almost like when he had come home last summer only to find the GIW in an ambush. Thankfully in thanks for saving the world 'Guys In White' had agreed to work with him instead of against him. Which, of course, Danny had replied that only in case of emergency would he call up on them.

"H-hey? Mom? Dad? Where is everyone!"

Danny strolled through the not-so-cheery kitchen only to find nothing more than darkness. Looking around he noticed that all the curtains where closed and the doors were locked so that not an ounce of warming sunlight disturbed the gloomy mood within. What he did not notice was the blood-red eyes peering at him. Like a cat watches his prey.

'Not liking this... not good not good not good.'

Upon reaching the refrigerator he found an object that confirmed his horrifying suspicions. An object that managed to reach out cold, darkened hands and shatter the poor boy's world into a million pieces.

A note.

--------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile In an Area of Space Unknown...

Elsewhere, a shadowy figure is flying amongst the asteroids, searching yet again for shelter until he feels like wandering again. Yet he dreads resting, for then he must yet again think about his actions and feel such pain that even a 40-year-old must not feel. Like when he was a little boy... and his mother sent him into the corner to think about his actions, only instead of the seemingly-forever 15 minutes, he was doomed to wander the galaxy for all eternity. For, as the poor fellow called itself trying to keep a tiny sense of humor, the 'Free-wandering Space Nomad' was banished. For the world had not excepted him not for what he was...

But for what he had done.

He couldn't actually blame them, for he was guilty of oh-so many things that now he was cursed to live in pain and sorrow for. He had enough time to realize that it was stupid to go after a woman who was married. Idiotic to try and kill someone for what he now realized, was a mere accident, and partly his fault. It was stupid... All of it. No, he was stupid... 'Young Daniel was right... I was being a fruitloop...'

But all he could do now was wander and hide, wander and hide, until finally he was too tired to continue. 'Maybe...' He thought, 'I can feel a little better if I apologize... to them all. Regardless of them not hearing nor aware of me. Regardless of the fact I'm millions of miles from them... Maybe someone, just someone, could forgive me.'

So in the shelter of a small asteroid the anonymous figure began to chant in his damaged head the apologies that he could say if only they could hear him, if only they would listen. He didn't notice the small comet of negative temperatures coming towards him... he barely felt the pain for loss of sanity. And as the ice encased him, imprisoning him within, it slowed down his mind and reduced it to one thought, and one thought alone... And that one thought continued to replay in an endless cycle as the ice prison sped towards Earth...

'I'm sorry Jack...'

' I'm sorry...'

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

"SAM! Oh God, Sam!"

That was the first thing the girl heard as she sat on her bed reading. For indeed her name was Samantha 'Sam' Manson. Ultra-recycle Vegetarian and Goth extraordinaire, she was known to most people as the 16-year-old girlfriend of none other than Danny Phantom. Pushing back her unnaturally black hair she sighed and glared up at her floating boyfriend. Who seemed to have a look of immense relief plastered on his face.

"What's wrong Danny?"

At this the halfa said nothing but pulled out a small slip of paper and handed it to her. Then turning back to human and sitting on her bed he motioned for her to read it. After a questioning glance his way she did so.

Danny Phantom

As you may have noticed your family is no longer there. Such was my doing. If you have any wish to save them you must simply do the following:

Disappear.

I recommend you do it soon or there shall be Dire Consequences. And not directed towards you.

Good day.

Sam, now paled quite unnaturally, looked over at the shaking ghost.

"Danny? What are you going to do?"

With a loud sigh he simply stated.

"Sam, I'm going to do what it says."

"Disappear."
