PLEASE READ AUTHOR'S NOTE!

A/N: There are two versions for this story and this one is the Non-Yao version. Both will start out the same, but will differ later on from each other for obvious reasons.

I'm telling you right now that Inuyasha/Kagome and Danny/Sam isn't going to happen in this story. They will be implied at the beginning but I plan on having different pairings for the two hybrids.

I will be adding the language barrier to this story so remember that characters from DP will be speaking English and characters from IY will be speaking Japanese unless I say otherwise.

For Danny Phantom: This takes place a month after D-Stabilized and Phantom Planet never happened. Dani is staying in Amity Park with Danny and his family. Valarie knows Danny Fenton is Danny Phantom and is helping him fight ghosts with Dani.

For Inuyasha: This takes place two months after episode 167. However this may go into Inuyasha: The Final Act episodes as well. I will be following the anime since I only know a brief summary of what happened in the manga. Of course my own little twists will be added to this.

Disclaimer for whole story: I don't own Inuyasha and/or Danny Phantom.

Prologue

I was currently in my ghost form, flying close to the ground at a slow speed through a very thick forest. I was trying to be as quiet and stealthy as I could to avoid drawing as much attention to myself as possible. I had all my senses on full alert as I continued to scan the area all around me. The problem for me was that there was so much foliage and not a lot of open space in this forest. It was definitely very hard to find someone around here; unfortunately it's also easy for a person to get someone else. It certainly didn't help that it was dark out and that the forest was huge and ran on for miles. Oh yeah, finding someone in a place like this was very tricky. But I refuse to give up, besides sooner or later either I was going to find him or he would find me. Honestly though, I would prefer the first option much more than the later.

Suddenly a wisp of breath escaped from my mouth. Normally this would mean that a ghost was near, but this time was different. Instead of my breath being the light blue color that it usually was when I sensed a ghost; it had come out in a light red color. This told me that the person I had been looking for was very close so I immediately stopped flying and started looking around for him.

My instincts kicked in and I quickly moved out of the way in time to avoid being sliced by deadly gold glowing claws. Seeing that he missed me, my attacker tried to hit with his claws again. I retaliated by shooting numerous ectoblasts toward him, but he easily dodged them and made another attempt to swipe at me. I flew higher to avoid the attack but I wasn't quick enough as he managed to cut the side of my right leg. From what I could tell the wound wasn't too bad, but it would definitely leave a scar later. Yet that wasn't my main concern right now, so I focused back on the situation at hand. Since I had the advantage of flight, I decided to go up higher so he wouldn't be able to reach me. He must have noticed what I was trying to do because he started jumping from tree to tree allowing him to gain some height and was now closing the distance between us. I began using my ice powers to freeze the tree branches so it would slow him down. However he used his fire powers to melt the ice and pulled out his sword as he continued on.

I flinched when I saw him pull it out and knew he was getting serious now. He yelled out his attack as his sword sent thousands of gold colored adamants shooting towards me. I knew going intangible wouldn't do any good, so I hurriedly made four copies of myself and each one created an ectoshield that fused together to form a huge ectoshield wall. The adamants pounded against the shield with tremendous force making a few cracks in it, yet the shield had managed to hold up against the assault. Unfortunately right after that he called out another attack with his sword that sent a strong combination of wind and fire at me. One thing I learned about my shields was that even though they deflect ghost attacks they couldn't deflect any other kind of nonphysical attacks, so using it for this next assault wouldn't do me any good. Therefore my duplicates and I dropped down the shield and sent beams of ice from our hands and eyes causing wind and fire to meet lots of ice. It soon became a battle of will as both of us continued to increase the velocity of our attacks until one could overpower the other. But apparently the huge accumulations of the three elements were too much and caused a massive explosion, making us both get knocked down to the ground several feet away from each other.

I got up from the ground a few seconds after I got back my bearings and flew to where I saw my opponent had landed. After that fight, I was grateful that concept of exhaustion didn't apply here. I knew if it did I would have passed out right now and probably awake an hour later. By the time I reached him he was already standing up with his sword in its sheath.

"Not bad," he replied, looking at me with a smirk on his face.

"Thanks, you too," I said back wearing a smile on my lips.

"What do you want to do now?" he asked nonchalantly while putting his hands behind his head and leaning against a tree.

"We could talk about how our day went," I suggested, causing an unreadable expression to appear on his face.

"I guess," he stated in an even tone before he closed his eyes and leaned more onto the tree.

"Do you want to go first or me?" I questioned, sitting Indian style while levitating a few inches from the ground.

"Does it matter?" he asked back.

"Right…well this morning I received a detention because I was late to school since I had to catch the Box Ghost. I actually managed to stay awake in my first half of classes. Then during lunch Dash threw food at me and started a food fight that I got blamed for, earning me another detention. During Mr. Lancer's class, Sulker appeared but Dani and Valarie were able to take care of him for me. Surprising nothing happened while I was in detention so that went by quickly. When I got home my parents showed me their new invention that almost fried me. After dinner Jazz helped me with my homework that I'm finally getting caught up in. The Box Ghost showed up again so I had to take care of that right before I went to bed. And that's basically it. Your turn now," I told him using an ordinary tone in my speech.

By the time I finished speaking, he had changed his position. He was now sitting on the ground with his legs folded and his arms crossed. He glanced at me with indifference written on his face before he closed his eyes again and leaned his back on the tree.

"Nothing much happened really. We killed a demon that was terrorizing a village. Then we stayed there since the villagers insisted on it and Kagome wanted to use the hot springs that were there. Miroku being his stupid perverted self went to spy on Sango and Kagome when they were using the hot springs. They caught him and Sango hit him on the head with her Hiraikotsu. During dinner Shippo was being a whiny brat again so I hit him three times. Kagome sat me for it and after we were done eating we went to our room to sleep. Yeah, so it was a pretty boring day," he finished explaining in a laid-back voice.

Neither of us did or said anything after that and just decided to relax for a while. Five minutes had passed and we both were now kind of restless from doing nothing for that small period of time.

"We're just not used to having free time on our hands are we?" I asked in a joking manner that made a light chuckle come from him.

Even though no words came out of his mouth, I knew that that was his way of saying he agreed with me on that. I figured that I might as well continue conversation since both of us didn't know what else to do.

"So do you have any more questions about anything from my/Kagome's time that you want to know about?" I asked him, making a thoughtful expression show on his face.

"What's so important about this school thing and its tests? Kagome keeps saying she has to leave because of it and I don't get why it's more important to her than our mission," he stated with an edge of annoyance in his words.

"Well, school is where we learn about things and tests are basically used to see if we remember the things they taught us. The reason it's important, or the reason people tell us, is that going to school and getting a good education will help us have success for our future. So, it's a very important thing in our time and society declares that without it you're pretty much screwed for life," I elaborated as best as I could for him since I myself didn't care that much about school.

It was obvious by the expression on his face that he was taking in what I just told him. He didn't respond right away, but when he did I noticed the annoyance he felt earlier was no longer there.

"Even though it's that important you would think she'd realize that if Naraku gets the whole jewel her future may not even exist anymore," he replied, going back to a usual tone.

I shrugged my shoulder at that since he had made a good point and I agreed with it.

"Honestly I don't really understand her desire to go to school more than saving the word either. If I could choose between going to school and saving the world rather than having to do both, saving the world would be my choice. Of course that's just me. I'm sure Jazz, my overachiever know-it-all perfect older sister, would choose school first too," I remarked with a little irritation creeping onto the last sentence.

"Older siblings are definitely troublesome," he muttered crossly.

I couldn't help smiling at the thought of both of us having over bearing older siblings. In fact the only difference between our siblings besides the genders and species is that his wanted to really kill him and mine wanted to really protect me.

"Agreed. Hey, you know what we could do?" I questioned him eagerly, making him look at me with curiosity.

"We could start a younger brother's club," I announced with a huge smile.

"Younger brother's club?" he wondered with confusion still written on his face.

"Yeah, it would be you, me, Souta, and if he ever gets free Kohaku would be in it. And during our meetings we could say anything we want or feel about our older sibs to each other," clarifying my idea more to him.

"Anything huh," he said as an enthusiastic look along with a sly smirk adorned his face.

"Yep," I conferred, getting more excited about the thought of it.

"That's not a bad idea, besides I wouldn't mind revealing a few things about Sesshomaru that no one else knows," he mischievously proclaimed as his smirk grew even more.

"Same thing here with Jazz," I replied in my own mischievous voice before we both started laughing.

When we were done laughing, he stood up and turned towards me as anticipation displayed on his features.

"You wanna go another round before we wake up?" he asked in a challenging voice.

"You bet and this time I'm going to win!" I told him excitingly as I stood straight up and flew a few inches higher from the ground.

"We'll see about that!" he yelled with the same amount of excitement before taking out his sword as it transformed into its larger form.

He made a lunge for me and I immediately turned intangible causing the sword to go threw me. Seeing this he quickly focused his power into his sword and it became a gold color. Even though this meant more danger for me, I couldn't help feeling a sense of satisfaction from this. He must be feeling it too because I saw a flicker of enjoyment flash in his eyes before he went in for another attack. This one did manage to scrape me before I could dodge it, yet all this did was bring a readily smirk to my lips. The game was so on now.

A/N: I'm sure you know exactly who is who so there's no need to tell you. For those who noticed they both can understand each other perfectly even though I said there were going to be language barriers. Don't worry there is a perfectly "logical" reason for that. So if you're a little confused about something, ask and I may answer.
