Hunting Batman

What if Danny comes home from school one day to hear his parents in the living room talking about a new client of theirs that bought up a bunch of their ghost hunting gear in order to go hunt/capture the Batman. And like it's Batman. Sure the dude is a Gotham cryptid. But a Ghost?! Ha. He's totally not. It's a nice laugh and he can see how his parents would believe it. But Batman a Ghost? No. Danny doesn't believe it. Only. In the middle of the night. After Danny has come back from chucking the Box Ghost into the Ghost Zone for the 15th billionth time. He's still thinking about it. Could Batman be a Ghost? It seems unlikely, but....he's heard rumors over the years. Of the various Bats and Robins. How they can't seem to die. Or if they do...they don't stay 'dead' for long....not long enough for anyone to track down a body at least.

And IF he's a ghost. And IF this mysterious client is right....then his parents are going to be complicent in capturing and possibly torturing/maiming/trying to kill etc at this point THE BATMAN one of the FOUNDERS of the Justice League.

And despite all their flaws, especially around Ghosts, Danny does not want his parents to be labeled super villains and placed on the Justice Leagues's watch list or worst their Wanted List just because they didn't do a freaking background check on their new client.

So maybe for his peace of mind, Danny tracks down the paperwork. Just to, you know, double check and make sure the new client isn't some crazy super villain and just your normal regular amateur ghost hunter that they see quite often here in Amity.

And it all seems pretty normal. Sure it's A LOT of weapons and containment devices, but it's not like the government doesn't try to mass order them on occasion. So it's fine. It's all fine. Batman will be fine.

Until he sees the signature of the client at the bottom of the paperwork.

#Danny Phantom #Batman #dc x dp crossover #smiley face and all in the signature #cue the 'oh no my parents are totally going to prison!! for helping a super villain the /WORST/ super villain!!!' panic #and then Danny gets to Gotham and discovers the entire place reeks of stale/rotten ectoplasm #because there's lazarus pits underneath gotham #and while the weapons /shouldn't/ hurt humans #who knows at this point who has and hasn't been contaminated by the lazarus pit waters #So a lot more people may get hurt #So Danny's frantically trying to track down Batman or any of the other vigilantes to warn them #And depending on when in the timeline it is a lot of the bat crew besides Jason /could/ be affected by the ghost weapons. #Joker doesn't honestly believe Batman is a ghost #He just thinks it's a nice new joke #Look! I have this Fancy Gun! #But no worries. When I shoot you it won't hurt! Because you're not a ghost batman #Red Hood on the other hand? #Joker can't wait to see if Hood is actually the Ghost of Robin II
