Dp x dc idea 3
In this phantom planet happened but they did not thank him they turned on him Dc and dp are in different dimension in this.
His parents managed to convince world leaders that phantom killed there boy and was just using Danny body. The world only agreed because they were terrified of his powers.
Jazz tried to convince them, they were wrong and he is Danny. Sam and tucker are trying to protect Danny and elli. I’d imagine all of Casper high backing Danny the a list did protect him when the whole gauntlet of reality happened.
When all is said and done the world took no prisoners. Danny, Ellie and vlad (he’s still hiding in space) are the worlds most wanted. Dani and Ellie were severely injured and hardly able to get away.
They wake up with frostbite and clockwork over them. The world is no longer safe but they can’t remain in the infinite realms they are half human. The obvious solution send them to a different dimension.
They were sent to dc and end up in Gotham. All they had was a thermos, Ellie took a lipstick laser gun, and some medical supplies from frostbite. Danny is pissed off and hurt he doesn’t want to hurt anyone but he only wants to protect his sister.
Danny was willing to steal enough money to get a shabby hotel room for a month or so to figure things out. He got to fake identity’s and a job at bat burger he may not like anyone but he doesn’t want to have to steal more then he has to.
Elli the little menace that she is still wants to help people. It’s her personal mission to annoy red hood until he puts up with her what’s he gonna do shoot a kid. She wants to avoid Batman both Danny and Ellie think he is a demon with bat powers. Danny cant stop Ellie so he just mother hens her. He would be ready for when they turned on them this time.
Red hood is just freaking out there is a child meta no older then 10 in Gotham just following him and beating up people. He’s not Bruce he doesn’t want to deal with this. Following this child calling herself spirit was harder to then he’d admit. She went from white hair to prime adoption bait and great she has an older brother no older then 15. How was he gonna keep the two pieces of adoption bait away from bruce and why did he feel calmer around them.
Besides worrying about Ellie Danny was doing just fine ignoring his problems. Working at bat burger was fine definitely not reminding him about the nasty burger explosion that lead to him abandoning humanity. There was a regular who would just stare at him like he was glowing.
Duke was freaking out.
By the time Jason got forced into a mandatory dinner the two adoption bait were there. He did get a warning from cass not to ask Danny about his past he was greatly hurt by whatever it is. Ellie immediately knew he was red hood the minute he walked in. He was definitely getting a lecture about not reporting meta children.
As time goes on Ellie gets more open and talks about her dimension, how it turned on them and talk about her hero phantom. She was just his clone how he saved her and she met Danny because of him . How he saved everyone in a town that hated him. How he saved the world and they turned on them. They were horrified but Bruce got two new kids and finally had one who wasn’t a vigilante who liked galas.
During a bad fight against a massive invasion were everyone was down. Danny was just watching from the bat cave as Ellie and his new family went down. Alfred just looks at him and hands him a mask asking if he was going to go help.
Danny does and takes names. He downs the threat in less then two minutes just grabs Ellie and Damian they were the most injured looked at Batman and said he was taking them. Then he starts to mother hen them at the batcave.
The league and Batman were now freaking out.

The Princess' Dolls
After Danny has ascended to the throne of the ghost king, something goes wrong with his clone Ellie. Her form destabilizes again, and when they stabilize her, she's physically only five or six years old.
Danny takes to watching her, but looking after a half ghost child is a lot harder than it looks, especially when Ellie learns duplication but can't seem to figure out how to undo it for hours on end, and each clone gets bored really fast. To counter this, Danny makes Ellie a set of dolls, all modeled after the Justice League and various related figures. He even uses a special enchantment he learned to make sure the dolls stay intact no matter what Ellie puts them through.
Ellie loves the dolls and she and her clones have a tendency to put together large productions using them, ranging from superhero fights to sitcom stories to fairy tales to a few 'things' Ellie remembered reading online before she was de aged.
Meanwhile, almost every single Justice League member has been noticing some oddities as of late. They can hear voices from no where, they feel like something is touching them when there is nothing, their muscles sometimes spasm without cause. And, on occasion, they find themselves sleepwalking as they dream of a giant telling a story.
No one brings this to the attention of the other members until several members get knocked out on a mission, only for their unconscious forms to start acting out a play.
(Or Danny accidentally makes several Justice League Voodoo dolls and a young Ellie keeps playing with them)

Fentons and Kents
More Extended Family au stuff!!!
There are an excessive number of DC crossovers that have Danny secretly related to one of the bats or about to be attacked with adoption papers, but I think if Danny is going to be related to anyone in the DC universe, he’d be distantly related to the Kents.
Clark Kent doesn’t seem a lot like Danny Fenton (other than being OP), but even adopted, he has a lot of traits in common with Jack.  They both:
Are extremely strong
Are built big, and I mean big.  Clark’s canon height is 6’3”.  I’m pretty sure Jack is taller and definitely broader
Have black hair and blue eyes
Are more capable than they first appear
100% believe in Santa Claus
Are good natured and helpful
It’s even more likely if you subscribe to @floralflowerpower's idea that the Fenton’s come from a rural background.  Add in @lucifer-is-a-bag-of-dicks idea about the Fenton’s throwing massive family reunions that include the entire extended family and more, and you can’t tell me these two didn’t come from the same family of human golden retrievers. 
And come on.  Who else but a Fenton would adopt the random space baby they found in their fields without a second thought?
No one really remembers how they’re related, but the Kent’s have been showing up to the Fenton Family reunions since the early 1900’s.  And the family reunions must be so relaxing for Clark.  Not only is everyone there super friendly and welcoming, but Clark can cut loose (to an extent) without exposing his secret identity. 
That time he crashed into a bench, destroyed it, and walked away without a scratch?  No big deal; Fenton’s always bounce back quick!
When he tackled a cousin a little too hard?  No worries; Fenton’s are durable! 
That one time he forgot most people can’t lift an entire picnic on their own?  That’s nothing; Fenton’s are always strong!
And let’s be real.  Clark isn’t even the biggest guy there.  He can blend.
The first year was probably nerve wracking for and Jonathan and Martha.  They had a kid still learning to control his superpowers and Clark had been told for a while now that he had to hide his abilities.  And this was a lot more people than he was used to dealing with.  But shy, nervous Clark was greeted by a flood of grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins who looked like him and welcomed him with so much warmth, acceptance, and open kindness that it made it easy to forget that he wasn’t human, let alone adopted.  This was his family, and it’d always be there for him.  This was worth protecting.
The year he finally brings Lois along has got to be a bit of a shock for her.  Here, he’s not the mild-mannered and bumbling Clark Kent or symbol of peace and justice Superman.  Here, he’s just a boisterous farm boy who can rough and tumble with his cousins without worrying about breaking anyone.
Connor had a little trouble adjusting at his first one.  He’s a teenager and “too cool” for all this country bumpkin stuff, but the rest of the family is aggressively inclusive, the mood is infectious, and he has a good time despite himself.
Jon is busy stuffing his face with as much food and fudge as the grannies will feed him, which is a ton, and there’s nothing Lois can do to stop it!
Somewhere along the line, they find out about Danny having superpowers.
It gets even better once Dani sneaks into the reunion to get at the food.  Jon and Kon find out that not only does she have superpowers, but she’s also a clone made by a billionaire asshole.  Kon, Jon and Dani start a “clone club.”  Jon’s not a clone, but he’s close to Dani’s age, so he’s allowed in.  Danny isn’t “because” and that’s the only reason Dani will give.  But he can still come on midnight flights with them.
Jon is just so excited that there are other superheroes in the family and almost immediately blabs to Clark and Lois as soon as they’re all back in the hotel room. It also leads to Danny finding out his cousin Clark is Superman.  His silence can only be bought with one of Ma Kent’s pies.  A whole one!  All for himself!  Her pies are legendary.

Project KRDP
"He isn't going to like this?" One of the techs said
" I don't care if he does or doesn't like it we are going to do it this way. The first clone was a failure. We only have enough workable DNA for one more try." I told them.
"why do you want to use this sample and not Luthor's? Someone else asked
"The sample from Phantom came from another place with notes. Someone else had been working on a clone for a while and they got it to work," I told the room.
I waited as the others went over the data. My idea was quickly put to a vote and all but one wanted to go with my idea.
Now a little over eight months later I wish I have never come across the old flies. Two months ago the project escaped with the help of the mini justice league.
After it has escaped nothing seemed to go correctly. Everything we have on cloning vanished. Every single computer turned into a brick. I learned quickly it wasn't just the work computers.
Every one whom had worked on any of the cloning projects had the same computer issues. I bet it was that bird boy hero that works with Batman.
And the worst part was the sample for project RAG had gone missing. At least his clones where still in place and not compromised.
_________________________________________
I could tell something was going on by a few of them sat in their seats. I dealt with Constantine more than them. Issues from the past and all that.
I raised an eyebrow at what Batman had just told me. Camus had made a clone of myself and Superman.
"I see, were is the boy now?" I asked.
"At mount justice for now. We felt it best to tell you before anything was finalized," wonder woman said
I thanked her and told Batman I wanted to meet him. The meeting could have gone better but I laid everything that went wrong at Superman feet.
Batman just gave a small smile for him anyway when I took the kid home with me to get to know him.
"Why are you taking this so calmly?" He asked as we walked to my house.
I just told him he wasn't my first clone and he would meet Dani later on. As she was due this month for a visit.
Jazz was the one to help him pick out the name Connor. We told him to take time to figure out on how he wanted to fit into our family.
He had demand to know what we meant by that. Dan was the one to explain just how crazy our family was.
My parents where ghost hunters
Dan my oldest brother was my future self whom came back in time to take over body to prevent our family from getting killed.
Jazz was a psychologist to the living and dead
Dani was not only my clone but had settled into the role of little sister.
So if he wanted to be my son or little brother I left it up to him.
My father on the other hand told him whatever he chose he would be family no matter what.
"Wow he looks nothing like you; " tucker said as Connor came down stairs.
"tuck," I said as I poured some coffee. My best friend just held up his hands before saying they would get right to work on what I asked him to.
" you can ask if you want to know," I said and he did. I told him I wanted tucker to work with some ghost we know to find out what all Cadmus knew about cloning before distorting their work.
"Why?" He asked as he made himself a bowl of cereal.
Telling him he had the right to know seemed to shock him.
Connor, Dani and I walked in on a yelling match the next time we head over for a team meeting.
I blinked a few times before asking Connor is that how Superman always seemed to treat him. His flinch was answer enough for me.
"Dani take your nephew home is seems blue wonder and I will need to have a talk. Connor you won't be back if he is here. Your team can visit at home," I said to the now silent room.

The long road of how starting a fight with superman over clone parenting eventually lead to Danny Phantom become God Part 4: The final warning
https://archiveofourown.org/works/47818321/chapters/121415806
A month had passed since the clone support group's last meeting and this meeting was going even better than Dani had expected. They discussed so many things and then the group expressed trying to find and reach out to other clones. However, all the momentum stopped when Conner spoke up. "I... I have to be honest with all of you. Despite Danielle's dad talking to Superman, things didn't get better. If anything, they've gotten worse."
Linda, Jarro, and Danielle exchanged concerned glances, their brows furrowed in disbelief. Linda was the first to break the silence, her voice filled with concern. "What happened?”
Conner took a deep breath, his voice laced with frustration. "Superman told me that I shouldn't be dragging others into our personal business. He made it clear that he sees my actions as a threat to his reputation, and he even threatened me, warning me to stay away from him and his affairs."
Danielle's eyes narrowed, her fists clenching involuntarily. She had hoped that the man would get some sense. That he would learn his lesson and be better to her new friend. Apparently, she wasn’t the only one, judging by how the room’s temperature began dropping dramatically.
“Dad!”
Everyone stood silently as Danny dropped his invisibility. They all looked to see her father, he couldn’t have looked older than fourteen. They were all surprised, he had just been a kid when he died. Danielle told them, but it never really hit home until they looked at the man.
However, by looking at him they also knew he wasn’t just a kid. He exuded power. His bright glowing green eyes with endlessly black pupils. The way his salt and pepper hair floated and fluttered in a nonexistent breeze. His very presence unleashed a pressure that made it hard to breathe.
“I’ll take care of it,” Danny said his tone was flat and serious. It was nothing of the fun-loving nature that Danielle had spoken about.
“Dad, can I use the mirror?”
“Just use the Mortal filter,” Danny said before exiting through a portal.
“Mirror?” Conner asked.
“So we can watch Dad kick the crap out of Superman!” Dani grinned.
“Mortal filter?” Linda asked.
“Dad’s true spirit form, even in base, can be difficult to look at for those not accustomed to the supernatural.”
There was a collective “oh.” as Dani set up her 85-inch spectral mirror. Her dad really loved to spoil her.
At the daily planet Clark Kent, Lois Lane, Jimmy Olsen, Kara Danvers, Catherine Grant, and the rest of the staff were having their morning meeting when a voice sounded from Clark’s direction. They all looked to see a white-haired kid with green eyes.
“Hi, Clark!” Danny said with a grin with too many teeth to be human. He was resting his hand on Clark’s chest.
“You!” Clark said, recognizing the boy from the watchtower.
“Bye Clark!” Danny said with a cheery tone that belaid his anger. Danny gave the man a push sending him out the window falling from the building and leaving a crater in the street below.
Everyone stood in shock, Danny recognized the look on Kara's face, the tensing of her muscles.
“Do not interfere Kara Zor-El.” Danny threw kryptonite-based bolas at her at a faster-than-light speed. She was tied up tight and because they were laced with his ectoplasm they would only come off when he willed it.
They saw him disappear and reappear on the street walking towards Clark. Clark looked up to see Danny. Clark felt his clothes come off revealing his Superman outfit. He saw a bright ring encompass Danny’s form. What he saw hurt his eyes.
That thing, yes, there was no way it could be human, its body elongated. Danny’s legs no longer existed. He became like a lamia, He no longer was on the ground, the boy floated. His skin became a representation of the night sky, he sprouted hundreds of black and white wings covered in eyes. The shadows he cast had mouths with hundreds of rows of teeth that consumed anything that happened to fall in them. His hair was a pure white that floated above his head like a crown. His eyes glowed bright green with endlessly black pupils. Each finger had a ring on it. Each gem represented the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. There was a volleyball-sized hole in Danny’s chest. Floating freely in that hole was a translucent black crystal with stars on the inside. The crystal was encased in a clear layer of ice. The crystal was surrounded by a spinning silver ornate metal crown that emanated blue fire.
“I warned you, the realms warned you Kal-El to treat the mirror born with respect, to treat your mirror-born son with respect. Now the realms will have their retribution.” Danny’s voice was layered with that feminine voice from earlier.
The Man of Steel was a man of action. He took the initiative and fired his laser eyes. They were blocked by an ecto shield. When that didn’t work he used his ice breath. Danny let loose a small whistle. It only lasted less than a second but the sonic force stopped Superman’s ice breath causing a wave of destruction causing the road to crack and nearby windows to shatter.
Danny appeared in front of Superman, uppercutting him in the gut and sending him flying into the sky. The man of steel didn’t even have a moment to reorient himself in the air. Danny appeared behind him and backhanded the man sending him crashing back to earth.
Superman decided to try his laser eyes again and put in every ounce of power he could and this time Danny didn’t block with a shield. Instead, Danny reached out his hand, and at the center of it was a black dot no bigger than a tip of a 36-Gauge needle. The dot sucked in the lasers, all of the debris in the air, its gravitational pull meant that anything loose was also sucked into it. Cars, light posts, and benches started to creak and croak as they were drawn toward the dot. Once Superman relented, Danny dismissed the black hole he created.
Danny generated a red ball of light in his hand and Superman fell to the ground instantly. As Danny floated over to him.
“I want you to start treating Conner better, You see this?” Danny gestured to the red orb.
“I can create these at will, I am the King of the infinite realms, Ancient of Space, The King of the endless. Creating a Red Giant is child's play. I’ve used not even a fraction of my power.” Danny’s layered voice echoed so loud it could be heard for miles.
A burst of magical energy caused Danny to jump back. The justice league and the Justice League dark appeared to surround Danny and Superman.
“King Phantom, please don’t kill Superman. Constantine told me you have every right to do so, but I ask as a favor please don’t.” Batman said.
“I wasn’t going to kill him. That isn’t necessary. In Fact, I was giving him a gift.” Danny laughed as he dismissed the Red Giant in his hand and began collecting red energy at the tip of his finger into a little ball.
“The gift of having time to reflect and to spend with Conner so he can see Conner as his own person. The mirror born are truly special. They’re a gift, I hate to see something so precious squandered because he wants to be a bigoted obstinate dick” Danny said as the red ball formed a beam that shot through Superman's shoulder.
“Kal-El take this warning to heart. It is the last one you will receive.” Danny said before he faded away. The members looked around to try and find him. The only thing they found was that all of the damage from the fight was gone as if the fight never occurred in the first place.
AN: Sorry totally forgot to post this one here, Finally the first big fight between Danny and superman,

YJ/DP Crossover 9
Allowing for the shell shocked staring happening between Superboy and Dani- Phantom’s clone!- everyone else’s minds are also buzzing with questions.
Wally quite literally until Artemis stomps on his foot and gets him to stop talking at light speed.
Phantom chuckles, “Yeah, I didn’t catch any of that, KF. You’re gonna have to repeat it.”
“YOu HaVe a CLoNe!” Kid Flash yells, his voice pitching high with incredulity.
“Yeah.”
“A cLOnE!” He points and gestures again,
“Yep.”
“A clone!”
“Uh huh.” Phantom nods with a proud smile. Wait… hang on… that’s not just his proud smile… Robin knows that smile…-
“BOO!”
M’gann shrieks, shooting into the air when Dani pops into existence behind her. Artemis yells in surprise as well, seconds away from aiming her bow at the giggling child in front of them.
“And she’s just as prank obsessed as the original...” Artemis pauses with a grimace, disarming her bow, “..great…” She says sarcastically.
Dani chuckles from the floor, rising up to float next to Dani.
“Who cloned you? Why? When? How???? Can you even clone a ghost??? How did you find her?! Wait, you didn’t do this yourselves, right?” Wally rattles off.
Dani’s eyebrows scrunch, “Blech, no, Plasmius did it, tried to get me to eliminate Phantom and everything,” Dani smirks and flips her ponytail mockingly, “Guess I’m just to good to trick,”
Phantom rolls his eyes at the antics. When he turns back to them though, his tone is more serious, “I wasn’t kidding when I said he was my arch enemy. Plasmius… I’ve fought a lot of bad… but he’s smarter and crueler than most of them..”
Superboy steps up to where the group has circled, “But you.. you don’t hate her for what he did? -or even for what she did, you said she tried to kill you-“ Superboy looks confused, staring up at the both of them.
“I mean, yeah I was pissed at Plasmius, and I hated having to fight Dani but after we got past the whole ‘I was created with sole purpose of ending you’ thing… Dani makes a pretty good cousin slash clone sister,” Danny props his elbow up on Dani’s shoulder, looking even more like siblings when Dani pushes him off.
“Even though she was made by your enemy?”
Phantom shrugs, “It’s not like it was her fault, or her choice and she made the right choice when it mattered… oh my Ancients, I totally forgot! I know where this is coming from!” Danny visibly straightens off Dani, “Dani, Superboy here is a clone too, of Superman!”
Dani’s head whips to look at Superboy so fast he flinches back, “He is?!”
“Uh… yeah..” Super answers hesitantly, unsure where this is going.
Dani zooms up to Superboy, pulling him this way and that, jabbering the whole while.
When Superboy looks to Phantom for help, Phantom just stands floating there like a proud papa-ghost.
Superboy freezes, “Wait, did you just say you don’t like Superman?”
Dani groans, “Ugh, yeah, I mean like he does good stuff and everything but he wouldn’t let me sit on top of the big gold globe thing, what a Boy Scout,” Dani says with a roll of her eyes.
Phantom gasps dramatically in the background, “Dani, you can’t just say that! That’s Superman!”
Dani responds by sticking her tongue out at him and blowing a raspberry, “I do what I want, Fantom. If he didn’t want me to badmouth him he should’ve let me sit on the globe.”
Artemis gives a sardonic smile, “Oh, you and SB are gonna get along just fine.”
“Well of course we are!” Dani turns back to Superboy, “I mean, you’re the first clone I’ve met who wasn’t of me or Phantom. And you’re not melting into a puddle of goo so bonus points, man!”
“Melting into… what?” M’gann says from the side. The team shares mildly panicked looks.
Dani waves the concern off, “Yeah, I mean, you destabilize and turn into goo one time and suddenly nobody lets you travel the world alone anymore,”
“That… uh.. happen a lot around here?”
“Not really, most of my brothers never made it past the first stages before they melted and once I stopped trying to kill him, Phantom was pretty chill about helping me get stabilized,” Her and Phantom both shrug simultaneously like it’s no big deal.
Robin would beg to differ, he considers it at least a little bit of a big deal.
“And that’s where I come in,” Huntress says as she comes up the stairs.
“Yep! She used to work for Vlad-“ Dani winced and cut herself off, “uhh… Vlad Masters that is… Y’know the mayor, who we’re against because he.. works.. with Plasmius.”
Dani gave thumbs up to Huntress, who only sighed with resignation and continued the story, “After taking down Vlad- and Plasmius- I couldn’t work for him anymore. I mean, I was all for hunting ghosts, but… that? The cloning, the experiments, his working with ghosts, his secret…s,” Val’s fists clenched, “I joined up with Dani, and we… I dunno.. came to an agreement? Not too long after.. Phantom disappeared.”
She looked up at the spector, “That’s the last we heard of you, and with you gone, things started to get bad in a big way. The Guys in White had practically free range, and they were out constantly. They have the worst aim possible, they’ve even shot me down a couple times! And the mayor let’s them! He uses their chaos to do whatever he wants in the background. First it was small things, a pulled funding here, an annoying statue there, then it was the mysterious construction projects, the curfew, the random rules he imposes. Anyone that tries to stop him, all he has to do is point his finger and the GiW comes running.”
“This sounds like a dictatorship…” Aqualad says in surprise.
“It doesn’t just sound like one, it is one,” Huntress says, “Amity has always been closed off but now we’re paying the price. Nobody listens to us, so nobody believes what he’s doing. We’re on our own here. Now that Phantom’s back, we might have a leg up though.” She looks at him, “I don’t think we ever realized how much you kept him in check. I mean, I’m good but I’m not that good.”
Phantom’s eyes flare, “I’m gonna squash that fricking fruitloop for this!”
Huntress smiles and slaps Phantom on the back hard enough to make him lurch forward with a wince, “Good to have you back, even if you are a ghost.”
“He doesn’t stand a chance against us,” Wally says as he steps forward.
Huntress casts a look at Phantom, “Listen, Vlad Masters and Plasmius, they’re the dangerous alone, but you’ll never get them alone. If Vlad’s there so is Plasmius, hell, Plasmius is everywhere. The only reason we’re able to fight back at all is because he doesn’t think us kids could do anything to him. It’s not going to be easy, even for a bunch of heroes.”
“Where did you go while we were talking earlier, Huntress?” Aqualad steps in.
“I was gathering up a couple of my main recruits, the phone lines don’t work well so I had to make a house call-,”
“Which she knows is super dangerous because it’s past the Mayors curfew but insists on doing anyway!” Someone says from behind the group.
The heroes all turn around simultaneously to the new voice, leaving Phantom and Dani in open view in the back.
“Tucker!?”

I always loved the relationship between Danny and Dani, and I love the fics where she was much younger than the show portrayed her to be. The Dad!Danny fics make me so happy ;w; In turn, when watching Young Justice, I was so angry towards Superman and most of the League for acting so aloof around Conner Kent? He was in an impossible situation he couldn’t control, so I had a bit of a more angry Danny chewing out the team about it.
It was well known that Danny Phantom was one of the strongest members of the Justice League, as his powers rivalled that of Superman’s. He was a ghost, the first ghost superhero on Earth, and the Human Zone was glad to have him fighting for them. Phantom was reclusive towards the public, not liking press for fear of misinformation, as has happened to him before. Phantom was, however, very open to his team, and although he didn’t outright tell his life (afterlife?) story, but he answered questions honestly and openly.
One thing that the team didn’t know, was that Phantom had any family members on Earth.
Of course, they knew he had a strange relation with some adults on the living realm (all coming from his home town, Amity Park). Phantom’s strange, almost sibling-like, relationship with Gotham’s lead psychiatrist had always made the young adult happier. His friendships with Samantha Manson, a leading botanist, and Tucker Foley, a technology millionaire, had constantly had the few housing their ghost hero. Other than those three, the Justice League had just assumed that Danny had died a long time ago with no family to speak of.
That was, until they were interrupted during a conference.
Phantom was acting a bit disinterested as Batman was talking about resolving some sort of conflict with the press (Danny didn’t see what the big deal was. It was one construction site. It could’ve been so much worse). His form was hovering slightly above the chair as he sat next to Superman, who was offering different ways to soothe the PR problem. Phantom curled a lip and sneered a bit, “Why are people getting so butthurt about this? We’ve done worse damage before.”
“Yes, but this was to the construction site of a hospital, Danny,” Superman sighed, trying to make the ghost see the reason for this. He wondered how long ago Danny must’ve died to not see the point in an infirmary, “Phantom, the city needs a hospital because-”
A light hiss passed through the ghost’s lips, “Supes, I know what a hospital is, I’m just wondering why the city is angry. I mean, it was still in construction. It’s not like they couldn’t just start over; and besides, the city has three hospitals already.” Phantom sighed. He kicked a foot on his chair, taking advantage of the lack of gravity he seemed to possess, and flipped himself upside down, “Can’t we just help the city build it?”
Flash’s eyebrows raised slightly at the ghost’s position, but nodded, “I mean, if we helped with the construction, we could do the work in half the time.”
“That’s a nice proposition,” Batman nodded gruffly, his voice low, “When should I tell the-” A whirling sound cut him off, and all the Leaguers looked around warily, many slipping into battle stances. Phantom, in particular, had the oddest reaction. His head tilted to the side, his ears perked up a bit, as if he was trying to pinpoint the location.
And then the mist came from his mouth. Everyone knew that that sign meant a ghost attack was about to occur, and even Danny flipped himself back to his normal attack position, his hands glowing green. The sound grew louder and louder, before a radioactive green spark , the same color as Phantom’s glowing eyes, appeared above the large table. A portal was opening-!
And then a black and white blur charged towards Phantom, barreling him over onto the floor. The team all held their weapons respectively, some just holding their fists, at the sight of the flustered ghost, who’s hair was flying in every direction possible. The most surprising addition to the ghost, however, was the…. Smaller ghost hugging him?
“Daddy! You wouldn’t believe how much me and Wulf have been learning from Frostbite!” A small girl smiled widely, showing small canines and two dimples on her cheeks, similar to Danny’s, “I learned how to make portals just like you!”
A hushed silence fell over the Leaguers as they heard the child shout ‘daddy’. She looked to be barely seven, white hair in a loose ponytail and glowing green eyes. Their shock at the child seemed palpable, as if Phantom could touch the suspense and tension filling the air. But Danny knew that Danielle would feel worried if he did not give her a proper response, “That’s great, sweetheart! Does that mean Wulf is nearby?”
“Nope!” She grinned again, and on closer observation, a few of her teeth were missing, “I wanted to see you and Aunt Jazz and Sam and Tuck by myself.” A cheek puffed out, almost like she was offended that he thought otherwise.
“That’s very dangerous, Ellie. What if a stray ghost saw you? You know how most feel about me and you, pumpkin.” He kissed her lightly on the forehead, his mood lifted from seeing his ‘daughter’, “But I am always happy to see my little girl.”
She giggled before looking away from her ‘father’, seeing all of the heroes. Her face instantly lit up a bright green in embarrassment, seemingly ashamed for interrupting… whatever they were doing beforehand. Superman opened his mouth to ask something, but Flash beat everyone, and spoke first, “So… ghosts can have kids. Who knew?”
The League was then greeted by two blushing ghosts. Phantom buried his face in Danielle’s hair, not wanting to look at his team, “It’s… not that simple, Barry.”
Phantom took a few seconds simply to collect his thoughts by murmuring to his daughter small terms of endearment, and it seemed to calm him down before he looked up and spoke, “I’d uh, like you all to meet someone very close to me.”
A clearing of his throat later, and he smiled shakily up at the superheroes, “This is Danielle, or Ellie, as we all call her. She’s my child.” Ellie smiled up at everyone as her father spoke, “I can explain the whole thing later, but for now, I’m, uh, going to show her to Jazz.” He seemed to be using the excuse as a cop-out, and was met with small glares from everyone.
Superman wasn’t impressed with his answer, “Danny, I thought you didn’t have any family relations anymore.”
“Technically, you never asked.” Danny blushed again, “Of course I have living family. Ellie’s just very much more closely related to me than others…” He cleared his throat once more, “Ellie dear, these are some of my teammates. You know some, remember? They were on the news a while back.”
Her eyes lit up and she smiled shyly, “Yeah! I remember the rope-lady with my name!”
“Her name is Diana, not Danielle, but yeah, Wonder Woman’s here.” He gestured to the woman, who tentatively waved at the small, beaming girl who seemed to love the attention from her way too much.
Flash held his hands up, “Woah, so are we not going to address that Casper here lied about his family? And that apparently he has a daughter he never thought to tell us about?”
“It is a bit suspicious, Danny,” Superman mused, a hand rubbing his chin.
Wonder Woman raised an eyebrow, “Where is the mother?” “Is she a ghost like you?”
“How can something dead make life?”
“Why haven’t you told us?!”
“Stop it!” Danielle shouted, holding herself closely to the chest of her father to block out all the noises from others, “I’m not daddy’s real daughter anyway… “
Danny rolled his eyes as everyone became completely confused at the small, quiet statement from the child, but went to comfort his daughter, “Now, baby girl, you know that you’re my little ice flower, no matter how we are related, yes?”
“Yeah, I know, dad.” She murmured as Phantom reached over and brushed her white locks from off her shoulders. Danielle looked over at the heroes before whispering over to her father, “Daddy, I think you should tell them about what Uncle Vlad did.”
Batman’s interest piqued, “Vlad, as in your archnemesis-turned-ally Vlad?”
Danny seemed to flinch, remembering that the heroes were in the room watching them, “Y-yeah, that Vlad.” He was silent for a moment, not wanting to continue with the conversation. Danny knew it would come up eventually, but figured he’d have more time to prepare himself for this day, “Maybe you should leave as I tell them, Ellie. Aunt Jazz is seven streets north and two buildings left, alright?”
Most of the team seemed appalled at the thought of him leaving her alone to try and find the psychiatrist, but realized she had flight just as Phantom did. She nodded before giving him a big kiss on the cheek and floating away as she waved goodbye to everyone.
Phantom smiled wistfully at the small girl before turning his gaze to the league members. He opened his mouth, and then closed it. He repeated this process a few times to no avail before finally sitting down in his chair with his snowy hair being the only part of him visible. Wonder Woman tilted her, questioning him, “Phantom, why have you wanted to keep your daughter a secret from us? We are a team.”
A glowing green eye met her before it lazily circled the room, landing on Superman, “Clark. Do you remember CADMUS? And Project Kr?”
Superman’s eyes widened, and he seemed to be uncomfortable with him mentioning it, “Yes, I remember. Are you saying that… Danielle is…”
“Yeah,” Phantom murmured, tugging on a piece of his hair, “You guys all look so uncomfortable when you speak of clones, and I understand. But you all, with the exceptions of Black Canary, Red Tornado, and occasionally Batman, had treated Connor as if he was… beneath you. Like because he was a clone, he wasn’t worth as much as a human or kryptonian because he wasn’t the original.”
He looked up, watching the shocked expressions on his team’s faces, but looked away to watch his much more interested boots instead, “You could imagine my surprise as a fourteen-year-old that my enemy had tried to clone me,  but couldn’t get the chromosomes right, or the aging right. Vlad had created a baby girl out of my DNA.”
Silence stayed in the air as they waited patiently for Phantom to continue. He took another shaky breath before trying to speak again, “It… It was so hard trying to raise a child while trying to save the city everyday, you know?” He gave a light chuckle, but it didn’t do anything to lighten the mood. He gave a deep sigh and continued with the same unnatural calmness he seemed to always possess, “She acts… nothing like me. I wasn’t as loud as her as a child, I was definitely more scared of everything around me. She’s so brave, and different, and unique. Danielle is her own person, and she’s amazing.”
He looked up, fierce determination in his eyes, as if daring anyone to question him, “After seeing the indifference from everyone toward Connor, I knew I would never wish to tell you about Danielle. You would do only the same to her, and no one gets to hurt my baby girl.”
Wonder Woman leaned over a bit, resting a hand on the younger one’s arm, “You know if we knew the situation, we wouldn’t have-”
“But you would!” He shouted, actually practically roared. His eyes glowed even brighter, and his canines a bit more pronounced. It was a frightening yet small display of power that kept everyone uneasy, “You’ve seen how Connor acts. Defensive, unsure of himself, scared. And yet, you treat him as if that should happen to him, as if it was his fault to even exist. Of course I wouldn’t tell any of you! After seeing it, I was so disgusted that I contemplated leaving this team for good!”
Superman swallowed, suddenly not wanting to have the conversation about his clone. It was strangely invasive, and personal to have this sudden attack on the league from their ally, their friend. Suddenly, Phantom’s attachment to Superboy made much more sense. “If I had told you about Ellie, you would’ve thought I was crazy for raising her. And in turn, if she were to ever visit her father, you would’ve treated her the exact same way as you treat Connor. Think of the effects that would have on a small six-year-old? She would’ve been so hurt that her so-called heroes would never like her because of how she was born, something that she had no control over!”
The other hero who was actually cloned successfully frowned and opened his mouth, ready to speak, but Phantom held up a hand, “Nah, I’m out. Going to hang out with my kid until I can calm down enough to talk to you guys again.” He floated upwards, his eyes not really focusing on anyone, before pausing, “Black Canary, Red Tornado, Bats? If you want to join, I’ll be at Jazz’s.” And he was gone.
The team had a lot to talk about.

Writing prompt: Danny is a League member who is den mother to YJ. Superman doesn't know what to expect when Danny calls him for a meeting but he isn't expecting an angry halfa to rip into him about being a responsible family member to Superboy. Little does he know that Danny knows just how violating it feels to learn you've been cloned. Does Danny convince him where even Batman failed? Please write it!
“You have to be the stupidest person I have ever met.” Frost covered everything once those words left the mouth of one Phantom. Phantom himself didn’t exactly look all that threatening due to the fact that he looks like a fourteen/fifteen year old boy with a black and white jumpsuit. But the way that his voice echoed and held that icy tone, the way that his usually acid green eyes was blazing with a fire made out of ice, and his pure white hair stood out from his tan skin made him look VERY intimidating. Oh and he was the reason for the frost in the room.
“Ex-excuse me?” Superman stuttered in shock. He knew that Phantom called for him for something, but he wasn’t expecting this.
He wasn’t sure what he was expecting honestly. It was rare for Phantom to call meetings with heroes. So rare it was unheard of.
Well, except with Batman. And Captain Marvel. It was like Phantom had a connection with the two.
“You heard me,” Phantom’s voice was clear, cutting Superman out of his thoughts.
“Uh, if I could have some context for why I’m the stupidest person you have ever met, that would be great,” his hand rubbed against the back of his neck. The Man of Steel was uncomfortable to say the least.
Phantom scoffed. “I’ll give you a hint. His name starts with a ‘C’.”
Clark stiffened.
“Why does that make me stupid?” He asked, unsure if he wants the answer.
“Because he needs you!” Phantom snarled.
The man flinched.
Phantom never snarled.
“Because you won’t give him the time of day! Because he needs a family and you won’t give it to him!” Phantom was eye level to him now, “You don’t have to be his freaking father for crying out loud! You could be a brother, a cousin, or a freaking uncle for Pete’s sake!”
Stalagmites and stalactites of ice were growing from the floor and ceiling.
Superman’s anger grew along with the ice.
“He’s a clone! My clone! DNA was taken without my permission to create him!” He yelled back. He had felt violated when he found out about Superboy’s existence. And hearing about it from not only Batman and others from the League about it made it worse. Now Phantom topped the cake.
“He didn’t asked to be made!” Phantom shouted back.
“Don’t act like you know everything!” How could this CHILD possibly know what was going on?
“I don’t know everything,” Phantom admitted, “but I do know what it’s like to find out that someone took your very essence to create a clone.”
The Kryptonian froze. He looked at Phantom straight in the eyes and saw no lies.
“My nemesis wants me as his son, but I won’t join him. His solution? Make a clone of me.” Phantom told.
“All of them were failures,” he paused, “except for one.”
Phantom watched as the man before him blinked.
“Her name is Danielle, but she likes to be called Dani with an ‘i’. She looks to be twelve but isn’t really that old. She looks to be my sister or even my daughter if I was older,” Phantom continued, “unfortunately my nemesis didn’t like this. He tricked her into thinking that he was her father since he created her, but he wanted what made her stable to create a BOY clone.”
The teen stopped to let what he said sink in.
“See, at first I wasn’t a big fan of her, but she grew on me. Eventually I found out what was going on and stopped it. Now she’s traveling the world because she wants to and I won’t stop her. We agree on calling each other cousins, but sometimes I see her in a little sister light. I’ll admit that I worry for her and I want her to be ok. She didn’t ask to be made, she didn’t ask to be a girl while HE wanted a boy, and she wants a family. I will be that family and I’m sure that my friends at home could be family to her.”
Phantom flew closer to the alien. So close that their noses nearly touched.
“Conner needs a family like Dani. I gave her one and you should give him one too.” With that Phantom flew off.
Clark Kent stood there, feeling a chill as his feet were stuck to the floor due to the floor with ice that continued to crawl up his legs.
He had some things to think about…

Made a post a few days ago about Superman being Danny's biodad.
And had this to add Danny is somewhat exited about this not that he doesn't love Jack any less. He might just get to meet the guy from mars. Sorry can't spell his name.
So as phantom he agrees to meet the YJL notice Superman beef with Superboy and asks what is up with that.
Gets the story and then tells Superman he is disappointed in him. And to never contact him again but tells superboy to call or stop by if you like.
Superman doesn't understand why his son was so happy before hand. They were working on their relationship. He was new to this father thing okay
He blames superboy for this and says so.
Only Danny didn't leave just went invisible oh he never mentioned he brought Dani along cause she wanted to meet Robin.
They are shocked when they pop back in Batman demands to know who Dani is Danny goes my cousin she goes I am his clone but we decided on cousins. Tells Superman he is a donkey butt then tells superboy we have to hang out sometime
