Danny Phantom: Into The Unknown

Prologue - The Beginning

What comes to your mind when you think of the word ghost?

Most people would think of the ghost stories they were told late at night. The stories that made you scared at every little sound. Some people can't tell fiction from reality, but let me tell you this: Ghosts are real. Those of you who don't believe me and believe in the laws of science, trust me on this one. I used to be the same way. But then I became the evidence I desperately searched for. I didn't ask for this. Most people don't seem to get that. I used to be the kid that dreamed of being an astronaut. The thought of seeing the moon and the stars up close fascinated me. But now they're just dreams, dreams that won't happen. Now, I'm a freak of nature. Alive and dead at the same time. A halfa. Half-human, half-ghost.

At first, I thought this would change everything. I was finally special. I wasn't just some 14-year-old kid like everyone else. I was different. But I was naive. I called myself Danny Phantom. I saved Amity from all the ghosts that tried to take control of the town. I never would have thought that I would be hunted by my own parents. I never thought that they would want to 'rip me apart molecule by molecule'. I was public enemy #1. No matter how hard I tried, they always thought that I was evil and would turn on them. I saw how life was in the real world. You can't fully trust everyone you know. I learned that the hard way.

Sam and Tucker stayed with me until the end. But then came a new beginning, and they left. They saw me how I saw myself, a freak. Only they had the guts to tell me to my face. Apparently, they're dating now. I don't see it. Dash turned out to be a really nice guy. His parents hated my parents and told him to beat me up every day to see if my parents would do anything. They didn't. He only played football to get a scholarship to college. So he and I have actually become really good friends. He found out about my ghost half after I transformed right in front of him. Not my greatest moment. Paulina is Paulina you really can't have a lot of hope for her. Jazz and I have always had a good relationship especially after she found out I was Phantom. She went to a college in Amity and is currently taking a year off. Valerie and I talked it out and I eventually told her I was Phantom. She immediately slapped me and then hugged me. We are still friends, the good news is she doesn't hunt me anymore. Dash, Valerie, and I have become that one friend group that are opposites but somehow make it work. Jack and Maddie are just the worst. I've stopped calling them parents right before sophomore year.

However, I was still a nobody in my school. Phantom however became a King. Yep, you read that right, a King. Clockwork convinced me to help out the ghost world since Pariah was no longer the King and the Ghost Zone was falling apart without one. So I became the King right after I turned 18. Skulker, Johnny, Kitty, and I actually became really good friends. Most of the fights that happened daily were staged. How the citizens didn't know that is beyond me.

As for my life as Danny Fenton. Nothing else has changed. I'm still the same student that people don't pay attention to. I am still a failure, a disgrace to my family, and a nobody. But trust me it's better to be unnoticed than noticed. No one really cares about what happens to the nobodies of the world. It's easier to be Danny Fenton and Phantom at the same time. No one questions anything. But with the secrets I'm hiding, there is always bound to be a disaster. Sure, I've faced many disasters and I've come back alive but...

I have a feeling that the worst has yet to come.
