"So, how long have you been a ghost Phantom?" Maddie inquired the floating young ghost they managed to contain. The said ghost glanced at the lab for a moment and frowned to think.

"How long has the Fenton Portal officially activated?" He asked.

Why would he ask that?, "Six months ago, approximately."

The young ghost only smiled at her and replied, "Then I believe I've just answered your question."

Maddie could only frown in confusion, is this ghost playing with her? She glanced at the Fenton Portal, they're proud of it, but they confirmed that the other side was too unstable for humans to go through, it's like peering into an endless well full of the unknown.

She could see Phantom lazily spun around in the Fenton Ghost Cage (which is a huge aquariumin the wall), humming to himself. It unnerved Maddie Fenton that a ghost isn't paying much attention to her!

Phantom suddenly tensed, as if he could sense her anger and landed on the bottom of the cage as quickly as he could.

"What do you mean, I have answered your question? I only said how long has the portal been activated."

The boy tapped his chin, "Yeah you did, but that's exactly how long I've been a ghost too you know."

Maddie lurched towards the containment wall, startling the boy on the other side. "W-wait a minute! You mean you died on the day the portal was activated?!"

Phantom eyes widened, "N-no! I mean, kinda? I don't know!" he suddenly shouted, exasperated, "I only been a ghost for half a year! All of the other ghost even got a habit of calling me a baby ghost! That's even more embarrassing than dad playing the videos of my childhood!"

He remembers his life before his death?
