"I'm going to cast a resurrection spell to rip through reality itself in order to bring Danni (no, not that one) back to life, thus restoring the status quo and hopefully making me...I mean, everyone feel better."
— Samantha Manson to Tucker Foley, Chapter Two Time Isn't Up
A Danny Phantom Fan Fic written by PhanOfDP333, posted on FanFiction.Net. The author claims it to be an Ultimate Universe.
A mysterious being, wanting revenge on the Fentons, causes an explosion in Fenton Works' laboratory, killing young Danielle (no, not that one) Fenton. Her best-friend (and potential-love-interest) Samantha Manson brings her back to life with help from the third in their trio, Tucker Foley. Upon Danni's resurrection, the trio quickly discover Danni is still "half-ghost", leaving her with ghostly abilities.
The three friends are the only (or so they think) ones who remember Danni ever died, as reality itself seems to have been altered. Things get complicated when her parents finish their Fenton Ghost-Portal, which leads into the Ghost World, dubbed the "Ghost Zone" by the Fentons.
Now with a Character Sheet. Go 'head and check it out.
Give it a try.
You might just like it.
Sadly, having not been updated in the last ten years, it can be considered a Dead Fic.
This work provides examples of:
- Abusive Parents:
- Adults Are Useless: Subverted. Lancer is a pretty cool guy, the Fentons are less oblivious, etcetera.
- Alternate Universe Fic: With a Gender Flip: Featuring girl!Danny.
- Amulet of Concentrated Awesome: Dora's Amulet of Aragon Sam gets to use it.
- An Aesop: A parody at the end of each story-arc (it's at the very bottom of the page in each of the chapters listed):
- At the end of the "Mystery Meat" arc (It's Lunchtime): don’t change your school’s cafeteria menu or an evil ghost will try and kill you.
- At the end of the "One of a Kind" arc (Plan B): extra-credit assignments will THREATEN YOUR LIFE.
- At the end of the "Fanning the Flames/Parental Bonding" arc (Biggest Fan): those Cramtastic things really work! I mean, Tucker did get a perfect score...
- At the end of the "Splitting Images" arc (In the Mirror): bullying is wrong. Wow, usually when I do a 'lesson learned' it's just a joke, but this one isn't!...That's weird.
- Attending Your Own Funeral: Danni in (Chapter Two) Time Isn't Up. A bit subverted, since she's a ghost at the time, unusual for this trope.
- Battle Cry:"I'm goin'-ghost!"
- Because Destiny Says So"So, what, I was destined to die? No way around it?" (According to Clockwork, yes.)
- Berserk Button:
- If you're an evil ghost and you hit on, threaten, or hurt Danni? Look out for a certain Goth Girl...
- In Chapter Sixteen:
Sam: Get in the damn Thermos."- When Ember gets on Sam's nerves again in Biggest Fan (Chapter Seventeen), Sam—who put on the Amulet of Aragon when she wasn't herself—turns into a dragon to try and kick Ember's ass.
- Beware the Nice Ones: Danni. As sweet as she can be, if she needs to kick ass, she will.
- Big Damn Kiss: At the end of Chapter 29, after they use a Combination Attack to destroy a platoon of Red Hunters surrounding them, Danni and Sam have their First Kiss.
- Brain Washed: Sam in Chapters Sixteen/Seventeen. Sort-of. It was the same love spell that Ember put Danny under in canon, but Sam confirms that it didn't make her feel anything she didn't already—it just made her act on every single thought and feeling she had about Danni, apparently.
- Breaking the Fourth Wall: Perhaps most notable so far is Chew-Toy of the Universe, but happens often anyway. The filler (Intermission) chapters have no fourth wall at all!
- Buffy Speak
- Came Back Wrong: Sort-of. Danni DID come back half-ghost, but otherwise seems to return to her "normal" self in a short amount of time. However, Danni does act a little strangely at times post-resurrection, such as wanting making a warehouse in Amity Park her "ghost-lair", implying she might be holding some things in...
- Canine Companion: Cujo
- City of Adventure: Amity Park.
- Clark Kenting: Danni's parents don't recognize her when she's in her ghost-form, even though, just like in canon, Danni and Phantom look generally the same except the different hair/eyes/outfit/ectetera.
- Clingy Jealous Girl: Just like in canon, Sam is extremely possessive of Danni and prone to jealousy if anyone hits on her. Ember learned this the hard way.
- Cool Car: The Fenton Family Ghost Assault Vehicle.
- Darker and Edgier: Well, the first chapter does have Danni being killed, being resurrected at the end of the second chapter and beginning of the third chapter, and realizing her powers. After that, it’s a lot more Lighter and Fluffier...so far.
- Didn't See That Coming
- Dish Dash: Danni saving Tucker and Sam from the Lunch Lady Ghost's plates of doom.
- Doomy Dooms of Doom
- Evil Laugh: Let's see...the Box Ghost, Skulker, and some others.
- Fanfic Header: (
Be warned, there are a ''LOT'' of authors notes at the end of most chapters). - Fanservice: Sam..."warming-up" Danni in Chapter Fifteen
- Filler: Intermission chapters, which have No Fourth Wall.
- Intermission: Happy Mothers' Day. This is only the first of intermission chapters. It was a lot of fun.
- Intermission: Author Existence Failure. Really, that's the title of the intermission.
- Intermission: Schedule Slip. Seeing a trend here?
- Intermission: Happy Mothers' Day.
- First-Episode Resurrection: Well...second/third chapter, anyway.
- "Freaky Friday" Flip: Poindexter pulls this off like in canon, taking Danni's body and banishing the ghost-girl to the 1950s Casper High.
- Girl on Girl Is Hot: Tucker’s reaction to seeing some Danni/Sam Fanservice in the fifteenth chapter.
- Glowing Eyes of Doom: Of course, but Danni is working on controlling it.
- Gosh Dang It to Heck!: Averted, for the most part. Characters do swear for real, but they do invoke it when around adults.
- Goth Girls Know Magic: Sam. Not only does she cast a spell to revive Danni, but it ends up being her source of power in combat.
- Great Big Book of Everything: Sam's Spell Book, Dark Magic not only has spells, but an entry on the Amulet of Aragon, among other things.
- Half-Human Hybrid:
- Harmless Villain: Subverted. Since Danni/Phantom cannot phase through objects ghosts are manipulating, she cannot phase through whatever the Box Ghost is using to attack her, meaning it's actually a challenge to stop him...unless there aren't any boxes around.
- Heroes Love Dogs:
- Danni LOVES dogs. She risked her own life in the very first chapter, before she had ghost powers, to save a dog from getting run over.
- When she first encounters Cujo in In the Mirror, she Squees at the cuteness.
- High School: Well...yeah.
- Hunter of His Own Kind: Danni, sort-of. Skulker as well.
- Idiot Ball: Compared to the show, subverted.
- It Always Rains at Funerals: Averted.
- Invocation: "Goin'-ghost!" Danni initially used this Battle Cry because it helped her transform into Phantom, but after a while, she just does it for own amusement.
- "I Know You're in There Somewhere" Fight: Danni talks Sam out of Ember's Brain Wash.
- The Man Behind the Curtain: Altered from canon. Here, Skulker's battlesuit is still a suit, but he isn't a tiny ghost, he's as big as the suit...but without it, he's not so tough.
- Most Common Super Power: Averted. Danni's an average-looking skinny teenager.
- Mythology Gag:
- Though the story is obviously a retelling of the series, with episode-order ignored, there are references to episodes from the latter episodes in the series even though, as this sentence is written, Resurrection is still in "Season One".
- Danni dies on April 3rd, 2010. "Mystery Meat", the first episode of the show, was aired on April 3rd, 2004.
- Our Ghosts Are Different: They already worked different in Danny Phantom, but here they work even differenter. Intangibility/invisibility work a bit differently, and it doesn't stop there.
- Phantom Zone: The Ghost World (what the ghosts call it) / the Ghost Zone (what the humans—well, the Fentons—call it)
- Post-Victory Collapse:
- After saving Sam and Tucker from Doris, Phantom de-transforms into her human-form.
- Again in Chew-Toy of the Universe, in which, upon Tucker defeating Technus, Danni faints.
- Power Incontinence: Danni seems better about controlling her powers than Danny, but she still has her moments where her powers malfunction or she accidentally changes-back to human. The latter usually happens more because she uses too much energy than a lack of control.
- Relationship Upgrade: Danni/Sam. It's a few-chapter-long Relationship Upgrade. This starts with Danni asking Sam to the dance in Chapter Fifteen, a talk in Sixteen, and going to the dance in Seventeen.
- Rich Bitch: Subverted with Sam, just like in canon. Though, she isn't below bribing somebody at Amity Zoo to let the trio be at the zoo at night with no adult supervision.
- Secret Keepers: Sam and Tucker, of course.
- She Is Not My Girlfriend: Danni and Sam until the Relationship Upgrade.
- Shout-Out: A lot. These are only some of them.
- PearPod (iCarly)
- "We're making Buffy references now?"
- The Lunch Lady Ghost is named Doris.
- "We're boned."
- Slash Fic: (technically, femslash)
- Spell Book: Dark Magic (for Those Who Want to Use It), Sam's spell book.
- Steven Ulysses Perhero: Subverted. Nobody is going to associate Danni Fenton with Phantom just by the names alone. Her appearance, however...
- Stripperiffic: Subverted. Phantom's outfit is not at all Stripperiffic—in fact, her outfit is simply made up of civilian clothes.
- Sub Text: Danni/Sam ...oh, who are we kidding? It's for real now.
- Super Hero Origin: Chapters One through Three.
- Tempting Fate: Danni does this.
- The Ditz: Paulina, it seems. But at least she's not shallow!
- The 'Verse: In the author's notes, the Alternate Universe this fic is set in is referred to as the Resurrectionverse.
- Transformation Sequence
- Two Girls and a Guy: Tucker is the only male in the trio, but doesn't mind the fact that his two friends are into each other.
- Unusual Euphemism: Oh, Butter Biscuits!
- Witty Banter: Danni.
- Word of God: There are very long authors notes at the end of nearly all chapters. They are very rarely essential to read, but they might be informative.
- Wouldn't Hit a Girl: Subverted. None of Danni's enemies seem to have any problem with hitting her. Though, to be fair, she can take it.
