Chapter 36

Danny began to protest, saying that he didn't know if it was a good idea but when others around the room began to plead for a story he gave in.

“Alright, alright, so there was a time when one of my powers was going bizerk.”

There was loud gasps happening all around the room but none were louder than the kids and unsurprisingly Dash's and Paulina's. It was thought that Danny Phantom was experienced with his powers, that they could never be problem to him.

The trio looked at the group of students with furrowed eyebrows before Danny continued, “Anyway, it was a new power and it came during a bad time.”

“Why Danny?” The Raven haired teen smiled softly at David, knowing that the kid was probably feeling awkward with the situation he was in. Not knowing whether to call him and Sam by their names or 'mom’ and 'dad’.

“Well, because a plant ghost by the name of Undergrowth took form and attacked Amity Park. He wanted to begin a new era of plants that ruled the world with him as his king and-”

He paused the story to take a long sip of his water and took an even more exaggerated sip when people began to complain about what happened next.

“Alright, so he wanted to be King and he also wanted your mother as the mother of the plant children.”

There were a series of disgusted faces, followed by phrases making Danny laugh slightly. “ Yeah, you say that now but it was more horrifying in person and well as much as I fought and as hard as I tried, I couldn't defeat him.”

“What did you do? Did everyone die?!” Dash was at the edge of his seat and ignored the odd looks he received from his peers.

“No,” Danny said after a minute once he found out that Dash was serious, “ I had to take refuge here in the Zone with a friend of mine who helped me with this power, they trained me and when I came back I won the fight against Undergrowth and your mom, with some difficulty of course.”

“That's so cool!” The kids were excited as they nodded along the others who agreed.

“Is that how Sam got her powers?” Mikey asked as he wiped his mouth gently with a napkin. Danny nodded, “Yep, Undergrowth infused some of his ghost DNA into Sam in order for his plan to work and Sam could be the mother of the plants. There was no overshadowing involved with her throughout the invasion.”

"What about you Tucker?" Charlotte asked with a curious twinkle in her eyes.

“Every time I had powers the DNA wasn't infused with mine. Instead the powers were held within a wish from a ghost genie and a scepter. Which is why I don't have powers,” Tucker said when they eyed him expentantly.

Star felt her curiosity grow as she reviewed the story in her head, asking “What power was it?”

Danny smiled as he brought his hand up, his crystal blue eyes flashed to an ice blue and his hand began to glow. Much to the amazement of everyone- including Maddie and Valerie- they saw a simple locket be formed.

It was shaped as a simple shield, bright blue with green ecto energy swirling through it.

“Cryokinesis”

At the confused glances the Raven haired teen elaborated, “Snow and Ice.” There were a couple of 'oh’s’ before Danny extended his hand out to David, who stared at the locket in shock.

“Is this for me?”

Danny smiled, “Sure is bud, you're my son and a part of the family. Everyone in the Phantom Family has one. It has our family crest in the back too.”
