Shocked This Didn't Happen Sooner Part 9

masterpost

Duplication is not a power that comes easily nor naturally to Danny and so his focus was split along with the physical strain of keeping a clone up and running mostly independently. So one could forgive how short he'd been with the police officers when he went to get Jack out of prison. It was actually really easy. Phantom simply walked into the police precinct, literally phasing his way through the lobby walls to loudly state who he was and why he was there.

Danny was… shocked by the response from the police and the few civilians in the lobby.

Cheering, honest to god cheering for his presence.

Phantom stood there in the lobby while police walked up to him, slapping him on his back and congratulating him on his return. It was quite possibly the most positive attention he'd ever received from strangers. Nobody was screaming, nobody was yelling at him, nobody was pointing guns at him. It was… refreshing. It was nice. Danny could feel his core humming in his chest while he was thanked for the years of service that he'd given protecting the town and the surrounding communities.

"I- yes. As pleasant as this is. I'm hear about Jack Fenton." Phantom declared, his face still slightly green in a blush from all of the praise.

"Fenton? Yeah, we had him in for questioning with relation to well… Trying to kill you." One of the officers said sheepishly. "And well, about that. I speak for everyone here when we say… We're sorry. We all drank the kool-ade from the GIW and the Fentons. That you and the rest of the ghosts were nothing but obsessive, violent echoes of people. We blamed all of the ghost problems on well… All of the ghosts. Nobody was willing to give you a second thought while you were out there really solving the problems."

Phantom held up his hand, cutting off the officer. "Yes, yes, that's nice. But I'm here to state that I am not represented by the Justice League. I am NOT, pressing charges against Jack and Madeline Fenton and I am demanding their release at once." Phantom said authoritatively, shocking the crowd of cops.

"Uh, are you… sure, Phantom?" One of them asked looking nervously towards the holding cells.

"Yes, considering that I'm DATING their SON. I would very much like for them to be released Immediately all charges made in my name dropped." Was Phantom's reply, quickly followed by a shocked hush from the assembled officers.

The cover story of Phantom and Danny Fenton dating had the bonus effect of explaining away the bone crushing hug that Jack gave Phantom once he was released. Once out of the police precinct and inside the GAV which had been impounded, Phantom explained the cover story of him and Danny dating since they were sixteen. Jack was more than supportive, he thought it was hilarious and effective. Jack's one recommendation was to get a pair of wedding rings and 'Make an honest man out of yourself'.

Phantom didn't want to wait for traffic to get to his mother though, so he said goodbye to Jack and started flying towards the hospital that his mother was in. The thought still made Phantom clench his teeth in anger. The slash to his mother's arm wasn't very deep, but the blade had gotten turned in the strike and caused more damage than it should have.

Madeline had just gotten out of a second surgery yesterday night that had been needed to avoid permanent nerve damage to his mother's arm and hand.

~All because of that awful little Brat in pajam- He's in the room. He's IN HER ROOM?!~ Phantom's thoughts came to a screeching halt as he saw into the window of his mother's hospital room. Robin was there and his sword was out. ~no, no no noNONONONONONO-~

Phantom stopped thinking rationally at that moment. speeding up and going intangible while he phased through the hospital windows and then grabbing the little sword wielding nightmare. Phantom didn't think before he moved, the only thing he wanted, NEEDED, to do was get Robin AWAY, from his mother.

Phantom flew through the hospital room, grabbed robin by his cape, and turned the child soldier vigilante intangible before flying though the nearest wall and the floor.

Robin's reaction time was exceptional as soon as he realized that there was a threat. The first two swipes of Robin's katana simply went wide, unable to strike at Phantom while they were both intangible and he hauled Robin along by his cape. But as Phantom was dragging Robin through the Hospital cafeteria he made his move. Robin's free hand detached his cape from the collar of his vest and Robin dropped into a roll over top of a table.

Robin half skidded, half rolled off the table and landed on his feet, just in time for Phantom to reach for him once more. Phantom's eyes were glowing like spotlights as he growled. Phantom was torn between wanting to beat Robin senseless and simply wanting him GONE, the only thing holding him back was the knowledge that this was still a child, just a very dangerous one.

Phantom advanced on Robin. His hands swiping out like claws to try and snag Robin's uniform once more, but Robin was dipping, diving and dodging out of his grasp. Another two slashes of Robin's sword as he back pedaled simply passed through Phantom's grasping hands.

Upon realizing that his sword was useless, Robin stabbed his katana into the top of a table and readied himself. The next grab that Phantom attempted, Robin jumped back out of the way of using much more power than his previous evasions. Robin reached out his had to grab his sword once more in midair, instead of pulling it out of the table, Robin used his sword as a pivot. Tumbling over the table and around his impaled sword, Robin landed behind Phantom as the ghostly hero continued forward with the momentum of his failed grab.

Phantom turned just in time to see the Robin emblem coming at his face. Phasing back into intangibility, Phantom expected the blow to simply pass through him, instead the stylized 'R' cracked into his jaw, momentarily stunning Phantom from the unexpected blow.

Robin took the second of Phantom's stunned shock to hop back out of Phantom's melee range, the robin emblem that was normally over Robin's heart was detached and strapped to Robin's right fist like an improvised set of brass knuckles. The Nth metal emblem Robin's only anti ghost weaponry.

"Phantom! I know you must have quarrel with the Doctor Fenton! But I am honor bound to defend her while she cannot defend herself! Cease hostilities at once until she is capable of dueling you properly!" Came Robin's voice, confident and demanding, though his words dimmed Phantoms rage into confusion.

"What in the Infinite Jest did you just say?"

Weaving Webs Chapter Two! Here’s the Ao3 link

poor danny, you can’t have a ghost portal without someone going through it

I’m really excited to share this, @maskedemerald did such a fantastic job writing these characters and showing the grief of loosing someone, and also the inability to let go even if the foundations of your belief tell you that ghosts are evil

Jack and Maddy as Justice League consultants

As the world's foremost experts on ectobiology the Fentons are an invaluable resource, and their activities probably count as vigilantism, but The JL never invited the couple as official JL members. 

Officially this is due to the Fentons being so specialized in ghosts and ectobiology. The Fentons are brilliant scientists, that much is indisputable. With their skills in biology, radiology, and engineering they managed to quantify a form of magic and pioneer a whole new field of study. 

It's just that they can get a little… absentminded. 

This ends up a moot point when Fentons (believing that the JL was about to invite them to join) state that they intend to focus on studying ghosts. But don't worry they would be happy to help out with any ghost problems!

…

edit: got rid of the duplicated paragraphs, Super embarrassing!!!

The League first became entangled with the Fentons when a young sorcerer named Nicolas Edgar Nolan, more commonly known as Nick Necro, launched an attack on the members of the Justice League. He sought revenge on Giovanni Zatara for rejecting him as a student when the stage magician discovered that Nick had become involved with a dark cult. 

Nick had managed to get his hands on a gauntlet that allowed him to create gremlin-like servants by sacrificing the lifeforce of other creatures. (Unbeknownst to him, the artifact's original owner, known only as the Overlord, was locked away within the gauntlet. With each additional minion the Overlord gains more influence over the user) The dark sorcerer had sent these creatures to attack the Justice League, thereby leaving Zatara without his allies. 

The artifact is eventually identified by Zatara as the Gauntlet of Tyranny, one of many curios that could be found in the Infinity Realm. Due to the gauntlet’s nature, its creations had the same properties as those of the Infinity Realm’s denizens, making them very hard to defeat. 

At least they were, until a couple of crackpot graduates from the University of Wisconsin-Madison came blasting onto the scene. 

Like everyone else in the world, the recently married Fentons were paying close attention to broadcasts about the latest alien invasion. Of course the couple were able to recognize the ghostly origin of the minion’s powers, and the pair immediately packed up their home-made ghostbusting equipment and set out on the most important cross-country trip of their life! (Unfortunately there was no way for them to fly out as the airport security refused to let them bring their blasters onboard)

Since Zatara’s main place of residence was in Gotham, that's where Nick Necro focused his attacks. It's also the direction that Jack and Maddy’s prototype Fenton Finder points them towards.

The Fentons make their way to Gotham with a trail of defeated minions and property damage behind them. Along the way they encounter Flash, Hawkwoman, and Captain Atom. The Fentons supply the heroes with their prototype ecto-based weaponry. Unfortunately the scientists don't wait to explain anything so the heroes are left to figure out who that couple was and how the gadgets work.

Flash is given a glowing baton that pops the minions on contact. Unfortunately it’s battery cant hold a charge and Flash has to keep repowering it with his lightning. 

Hawkwoman is frustrated when the hard light ecto-blade keeps fritzing out, but discovers the nth-metal of her mace stabilizes it. 

Captain Atom gets a giant tuning fork to his confusion. Eventually he figures out that by channeling his power through it the nearby minions are forcibly gathered at the fork’s end, and he can take them all out with one blast.

Upon arriving at Gotham the Fentons make their way to the city’s last operating clinic, arriving just in time to save doctor Leslie Thompkins. Together they fortify the clinic and set up a shield that keeps out all ghostly beings. 

Poor Batman hasn't gotten a break all week. A mystery enemy had been ambushing members of the League. By the time they identified the culprit as Nick Necro the man had been able to gather enough forces to launch a siege against America's largest cities, with a special focus on Gotham due to it being the home of Nick’s target, Giovanni Zatara. Now some unknown vigilanties were setting up base in his godmother's clinic. Sure the couple claim to want to help, but Batman didn't get this far by trusting people at face value. He interrogates them about everything,  why are you here, how do you know so much about the attackers, what are your devices, etc…

The Fentons are thrilled that this bat-themed fellow is so interested in their work and are happy to gush about it in between shooting minions. Batman is immediately given full access to their makeshift lab and equipment without so much as a thought to security or safety.

Baman begrudgingly teams up with the Fentons but will definitely do a more thorough (re: invasive) investigation on the Fentons later. But for now they cooperate to make a device that neutralizes the Gauntlet of Tyranny.

…

And that’s how it all started.

On one hand Jack and Maddie now have a support system of fellow scientists and vigilantes. On the other hand they are now heroes in the DCU.

Occasionally Jack and Maddie end up on comic book flavored adventures (I'm watching clips of Batman the Brave and the Bold while coming up with this). When they're gone the Fenton kids are usually looked after by their parents' work friends. Mr Terrific, Atom, Swamp Thing, Barry Allen, etc. At some point 12 yr old Dick ends up babysitting 6 yr old Jazz and 4 yr old Danny.

Ya know... Wouldn't it be funny if Vlad and Danny didn't know the other's superhero/villain identites. Like obviously they don't like each other in both forms and they still know that the other is a halfa.

But the ghost zone is a big place and the Drs. Fenton have been fiddling with ghost portals for years. Vlad obviously wouldn't be surprised if they managed to half-kill another person... again.

Danny on the other hand would look at all the ghosts the portal has spit out, look at Plasmius, and go 'same shit as always' and carry on with his day.

How I imagine the reveal would go:

*Fentons + Vlad are having some holiday or sports themed dinner party*

Vlad: I just don't understand why you don't just leave your father, Daniel.

Danny: fruitloopfruitloopfrhitloopfruitloop

Jack *in the background*: Whoops!

Vlad: Honestly-*something smacks into him at terminal high velocities*

Maddy: Tsk. First you, now Vlad. Jack honey, calibration on the Boomerang still seems off-

Danny: *surprised Pikachu face*

A short comic I did as a commission for a dear friend of mine :3

[definitely-jax]

Ok but, brainstorming here, danny as an avatar of the end but also the spiral and/or the extinction ? Like the end yeah sure obviously, but the spiral in that he looks vaguely wrong in BOTH forms. He looks like walking corpse as a human, pale and cold and somewhat decaying. As a ghost he's got too much blush to his cheeks, you can feel his bones and see him bleed and he doesn't look quite as transparent/translucent as the others do, he's too human. The extinction idk if I'd include or not but idk something about being one of the only of your specific species kinda hits in that area I think.

The only other characters I have a clear fear tie to would be his parents, while yes you could argue their also the end I think they fit so much better with primarily the hunt, for again probably obvious reasons. The end could tie into that, IF they have to come to the realization that they are tied in with what they've seen as their prey all along, which could be fun to handle. Oh, like parent like child as well, you could say their extinction purely bc they gave the ghosts access to the living and created danny which creates dan who kinda ends humanity 😁 just brainstorming don't mind me.

Danny Phantom + DC Writing Prompt

Another thought I had. Haven’t really thought it all that much but it’s pretty much Danny kidnaps Damian when he still lived with the League of Assassins [LOA]. The idea for this time period is that it’s after Phantom Planet except only Danny’s family and a few others know he’s Danny Phantom (and that the rest of the world still has no idea about ghosts being real). Also, no idea if Danny is related to the Wayne/al-Ghul family or if he’s just some guy who decided to kidnap the obviously traumatized child.

Talia and Ra’s are freaking out over Damian’s kidnapping (Talia because her son is missing. Ra’s because he lost his heir). The LOA is searching all over for Damian but cannot find him. They never considered checking a small town in Illinois known for being ‘haunted’ and looking like any old tourist trap.

The Fentons, meanwhile, are ecstatic to have another family member. They already claimed that Dani (now known as Ellie) was a cousin they took in/adopted, what was one more ‘cousin turned adopted sibling’?

[thenewgirl76]

Maddy ends up fatally wounded thanks to the GIW's typical uncaring recklessness in pursuit of Danny. Despite the hospital's best efforts plus her own desire to live, she dies four days later. Naturally Danny blames himself and decides to run away out of fear of the same thing happening to the rest of his family and friends.

In his distraught state he doesn't take notice of the tagalong he gains the moment he takes off. Turns out Maddy's passing was anything but peaceful. Though unconscious more often than not she could still hear everything, including Danny crying to her over how much he regretted messing with the portal, that he tried so hard to do good, and that he was sorry he didn't do better when it counted. The shame and guilt during her few moments of consciousness is what lead to both her hanging on as long as she did and her coming back not long after taking her last breath, desperate for a way to make up for her failure as a mother.

So none the wiser to his travelling companion Danny's travels eventually bring him to Star City. From there he continues his routine of survival and avoidance as a homeless teen, Maddy guarding and watching over him every step of the way.

While the whole situation is less than ideal, given how Maddy can't do more and has yet to muster enough bravery to reveal herself to Danny, the system they have works and is somewhat comforting to her. Of course it doesn't last long as one day Danny lets his guard down and gets careless to the point of ending up involved in a hero villain standoff.

He gets away unscathed. But not before drawing the concerned eye of citizen and hero alike. It's only a matter of time before he begrudgingly agrees to be taken in. This does not please Maddy. At all. Just like that, it's no longer simply about making amends however she can, but about protecting a highly valued possession. In life and death Danny is her son, her baby, and hers alone.

And no one, absolutely no one is taking him from her. Not Vlad, not the GIW, and ESPECIALLY not some trashy looking shrink and her Robin Hood wannabe boyfriend. She'll see them dead first.
