Danny Phantom Prompt - Migratory Mers
When Elle comes for a visit and watches a documentary about the North Atlantic right whale, she decides that she is going to join them on their migration to protect them from ship collisions and fishing debris, since those are the two biggest threats to their species. She invites Danny to come with her because they haven't had an adventure together in a while. Danny shrugs and thinks ‘Why not?’ School is out for the summer and the ghosts have been behaving.
So they join the whales. And Elle shows Danny the joys of altering forms for different environments. By the time the whales pass by their starting point, two black, white, and glowing green mers join their pod.
It's awesome. They tear up fishing nets that are left behind and disintegrate plastic waste in the way. They pick off barnacles and other pests that the suckerfish can't reach. They use their powers to gently rock the waves around incoming ships, thereby giving the pod enough time to pass. They not so gently glitch out computers and radar on poachers’ ships.
They also hold onto fins and ride the currents. They play with the calves and juveniles. They nap on their backs. They fully immerse themselves into the pod.
Over time, they even begin to understand the language. Ghosts can understand every language, and Danny and Elle take great pleasure in communicating with a series of clicking, crooning, and singing.
Whale-watching parties pick up on the mers rather quickly, and it isn't long before the whole world knows about them too. The internet is having a field day.
