Creating The Strongest Familia In Danmachi

Chapter 11: Chapter 11



Hestia and I are standing near the welcome sign of Amity Park. The small town has a quaint, suburban charm to it, with neatly trimmed lawns, tidy houses, and a general sense of tranquility. It's a far cry from the bustling city life I'm used to back on Earth.

I gaze around Amity Park, taking in the quaint, suburban charm of the town. Hestia and I are standing near the welcome sign, and I can't help but feel a sense of excitement bubbling up inside me.

"So this is the world you chose, David-kun?" Hestia asks, her brow furrowed in concentration as she examines the sign.

I nod, a grin spreading across my face. "That's right, Hestia. This is Amity Park - the home of Danny Phantom."

As we stroll down the sidewalk, I can't help but admire the town's picturesque appearance. The towering oak trees lining the streets cast gentle shadows over the pedestrians below, and families walk hand-in-hand, stopping to window shop or grab a bite to eat at the local diner. It's a far cry from the bustling city life I'm used to back on Earth, but there's something about the tranquility of this place that really speaks to me.

"David-kun, why did you choose this world? What makes this place so special? It looks ordinary to me," Hestia says, her voice laced with curiosity.

I can't help but grin at her question, knowing she's about to be in for a real treat. "Ah, Hestia, this place may look ordinary on the surface, but trust me, there's a lot more to Amity Park than meets the eye." I gesture around us, my enthusiasm bubbling over. "You see, this is the home of Danny Phantom - a teenage superhero who can turn into a ghost!"

Hestia's eyes widen in surprise. "A ghost? A human who can become a ghost?" She furrows her brow, trying to wrap her head around the concept. "But how is that possible?"

I chuckle at her bewilderment. "Well, you see, Danny Fenton - that's his human name - had a little accident in his parents' ghost portal. It infused his DNA with ectoplasmic energy, giving him the ability to transform into the ghostly hero, Danny Phantom."

Hestia nods slowly, her expression a mix of fascination and skepticism. "I see... And this Danny Phantom, he uses his powers to protect the town?"

"Exactly!" I exclaim, throwing my arms out dramatically. "Amity Park is constantly under attack from all sorts of ghosts, and Danny Phantom is the only one who can stop them. He's got all kinds of cool powers - invisibility, intangibility, energy blasts, and even a devastating sonic attack called the Ghostly Wail."

Hestia's eyes widen with wonder "So this Danny Phantom is the only one who can fight these ghosts? That's incredible!"

I chuckle at Hestia's enthusiasm. "Well, not exactly. Danny has two close friends, Sam and Tucker, who help him catch and contain the ghosts. And get this - his own parents are ghost hunters!"

Lunamon's voice pipes up from my Digivice, "But if his parents are ghost hunters, how do they not know their son has these powers?"

I grin, "That's the funny part. Danny's parents are brilliant scientists who have developed all kinds of crazy ghost-fighting tech. But they have no idea their son is the very ghost they're trying to catch!"

Hestia lets out a delighted giggle. "Oh, that's rich! So Danny has to use his parents' own inventions against the ghosts, all while keeping his identity a secret?"

I nod enthusiastically. "Exactly! It makes for some pretty hilarious situations. Danny's always having to sneak around, make excuses, and use his powers in creative ways to avoid getting caught."

I turn to Hestia, a grin spreading across my face. "Well, Hestia, what do you say we explore this town and see what other wonders it has in store?"

Hestia's eyes light up with excitement. "Oh, David-kun, that sounds absolutely wonderful! I can't wait to see more of this fascinating world."

With that, Hestia and I set off down the sidewalk, taking in the sights and sounds of Amity Park. The quaint charm of the town has me grinning from ear to ear, and I can't wait to show Hestia all the highlights.

"Look, Hestia, there's the Nasty Burger!" I exclaim, pointing to the iconic fast-food joint. "It's the most famous burger place in all of Amity Park."

Hestia's brow furrows in concern. "Nasty Burger? That doesn't sound very appetizing, David-kun. Are you sure this is a good idea?"

I turn to Hestia, giving her an encouraging smile. "Don't worry, Hestia. The Nasty Burger may have a silly name, but it's one of the most popular places in Amity Park. You have to trust me on this one."

Hestia still looks uncertain, but I can see the curiosity shining in her eyes. "Alright, David-kun. I'll give it a try. But if it's truly 'nasty,' I'm holding you responsible!"

I chuckle and lead Hestia into the Nasty Burger, the familiar smell of grease and fries wafting through the air. We approach the counter, and I turn to Hestia. "Okay, let's get a couple of burger meal sets. Trust me, you're going to love this."

As we place our order, I hear a familiar voice piping up from my Digivice. "David, can I have a burger meal too?" Lunamon asks, her tone hopeful.

I glance down at the device, a grin spreading across my face. "Of course, Lunamon! I'll make sure to get one for you to enjoy later." I turn back to the cashier. "And can I get one more burger meal set to go, please?"

The cashier nods and hands me the receipt, and we find a cozy booth to sit in. Hestia looks around the diner, her eyes wide with curiosity. "So this is what an Earthly dining establishment is like. It's quite different from the taverns in Orario."

I nod, leaning back in the booth. "Yeah, the Nasty Burger is a classic American fast-food joint in this world. The food might not be the healthiest, but it's definitely delicious."

Hestia's eyes sparkle with excitement. "Well, then I can't wait to try it!" She takes a bite of her burger, and her eyes widen in surprise. "Oh my, this is...actually quite good!"

I chuckle, taking a bite of my own burger. "Told you so. Sometimes the best things come in unexpected packages."

Lunamon's voice pipes up from the Digivice again. "David, when do I get to try my burger?"

I smile, glancing down at the device. "Don't worry, Lunamon. I'll make sure to bring it back to you as soon as we're done here. Wouldn't want you to miss out on the Nasty Burger experience."

Hestia nods enthusiastically, her mouth full of fries. "Mmhmm! You're going to love it, Lunamon. It's like nothing we have in Orario!"

Here is the continuation of the story from David Miller's perspective:

As Hestia and I enjoyed our burgers, I couldn't help but notice a familiar trio walk through the doors of the Nasty Burger. I recognized them instantly - Danny Fenton, Sam Manson, and Tucker Foley, the main characters from the Danny Phantom tv show.

"Hey, Hestia," I said, nudging her gently. "See those three over there?" I pointed discreetly in their direction. "That's Danny Phantom and his best friends, Sam and Tucker."

I subtly leaned in, straining to hear their conversation over the din of the Nasty Burger.

"Ugh, I can't believe Mr. Lancer assigned us another essay," Sam groaned, rolling her eyes dramatically. "Does he not understand we have lives outside of school?"

Danny let out a heavy sigh. "Tell me about it. Between ghost hunting and homework, I'm barely surviving as it is." He ran a hand through his messy black hair, a frustrated expression on his face.

Tucker, ever the voice of reason, patted Danny's shoulder sympathetically. "Hey, man, at least you've got us to help you out. We're in this together, right?"

Danny managed a small smile. "Yeah, I guess you're right. I don't know what I'd do without you guys."

The three of them shared a warm, camaraderie-

I watched with fascination as Danny, Sam, and Tucker ordered their food and found a table to sit at. Hestia and I continued to enjoy our burgers, though I kept one eye on the trio, eager to see if any ghostly hijinks were about to unfold.

Suddenly, the Nasty Burger's entrance burst open, and floating square boxes started whizzing through the air at high speeds. My eyes widened as the Box Ghost himself appeared, cackling maniacally.

"I am the Box Ghost!" he proclaimed in his trademark booming voice. "Beware!"

The normal patrons of the Nasty Burger immediately panicked, jumping up from their seats and rushing for the exits. I grabbed Hestia's arm, pulling her closer to me.

"Stay close, Hestia," I said, my voice tinged with excitement. "This is about to get interesting."

Hestia looked around, her eyes wide with a mix of fear and curiosity. "David-kun, what is that strange creature? And why are the people running away?"

I grinned, gesturing towards the Box Ghost. "That, my dear Hestia, is the Box Ghost - a rather comical villain who has an obsession with... well, boxes."

As if on cue, the Box Ghost raised his hands, commanding the floating boxes to swirl around him in a dizzying display. "Tremble before the might of my cardboard minions!" he bellowed.

The remaining patrons scrambled to get out of the way, knocking over chairs and tables in their haste. I couldn't help but chuckle at the absurdity of the situation.

"Hestia, this is exactly the kind of thing I was talking about," I said, leaning in conspiratorially. "Amity Park is never dull, I can assure you."

Hestia watched the chaos unfolding with a mixture of alarm and fascination. "So this... Box Ghost, he is a threat to the people of this town?"

I nodded, grinning. "In a manner of speaking. But don't worry, Hestia. I have a feeling our hero is about to make an appearance."

Here is the continuation of the story from David Miller's perspective:

As the Box Ghost continued his rampage, a familiar voice suddenly rang out across the Nasty Burger.

"Alright, Box Ghost, what's the big idea this time?" Danny Fenton exclaimed, stepping forward with a confident grin. "Don't you ever get tired of trying to terrorize this town?"

The Box Ghost whirled around, his eyes gleaming with manic delight. "Ah, Danny Phantom! I should have known you would show your ghostly face!" He cackled, gesturing wildly to the floating boxes. "But this time, my cardboard army will be too much for you to handle!"

Danny rolled his eyes, a playful smirk spreading across his face. "Cardboard army, huh? This is going to be a piece of cake." He took a deep breath and shouted, "Going ghost!"

In a flash of light, Danny transformed into his ghostly alter-ego, Danny Phantom. His messy black hair turned stark white, and his blue eyes glowed with an eerie green light. I couldn't help but grin as Hestia's eyes widened in amazement.

"David-kun, he really can become a ghost!" Hestia whispered, her voice filled with wonder. "This is truly remarkable!"

I nodded, leaning back in my seat. "Just wait, Hestia. The real show is about to begin."

Danny Phantom shot forward, his body becoming intangible as he effortlessly passed through the swirling boxes. "Alright, Box Ghost, time to put a lid on your little box party," he quipped, firing a barrage of ecto-blasts at the hapless villain.

The Box Ghost howled in frustration as his cardboard minions were blasted apart, scattering across the Nasty Burger. "No, my precious boxes!" he cried, desperately trying to gather them back together.

Danny Phantom chuckled, crossing his arms with a triumphant grin. "Give it up, Box Ghost. You're never going to win against me and my friends." He gestured towards Sam and Tucker, who had sprung into action, using the Fenton Thermos to capture the errant ghosts.

I watched in awe as Danny Fenton transformed back into his human self, the bright white light fading to reveal the familiar black-haired, blue-eyed teenager. Danny, Sam, and Tucker shared a triumphant high-five, their camaraderie evident in their easy banter.

"Nice work, team," Danny said with a grin. "Looks like we showed that Box Ghost who's boss, huh?"

Sam rolled her eyes, but I could see the fondness in her expression. "Please, Danny. That guy is so predictable, it's almost not even a challenge anymore."

Tucker chuckled, adjusting his red beret. "Yeah, but you gotta admit, it's still pretty fun watching him freak out over his precious boxes."

The trio shared a laugh, and I couldn't help but smile at their easy rapport. It was clear that their friendship ran deep, forged through the countless battles they'd faced together.

"Come on, guys," Danny said, motioning towards the exit. "Let's get out of here before my parents show up and start asking questions."

As the trio headed for the door, I turned to Hestia, my eyes shining with excitement. "Did you see that, Hestia? Wasn't that incredible?"

Hestia nodded, her expression a mix of wonder and disbelief. "Yes, David-kun, that was truly remarkable. I can scarcely believe my eyes. To think that a human can transform into a ghost and wield such power!"

I chuckled, leaning back in my seat. "Well, you better believe it, Hestia. Danny Phantom is the real deal, and he and his friends are the heroes of this town."

Here is the continuation of the story from David Miller's perspective:

Hestia turned to me, her brows furrowed in concern. "David-kun, I don't understand. If this Danny Phantom is the hero of this town, then what are we doing here? Wasn't our goal to find a world where you could gain powers of your own?"

I couldn't help but chuckle at Hestia's bewilderment. "Ah, you're absolutely right, Hestia. That was the plan, wasn't it?" I leaned back in my seat, a mischievous grin spreading across my face. "But you see, I have a little something else in mind."

Hestia's eyes widened, and she leaned in closer. "David-kun, what are you thinking? Do you plan to steal the Fenton family's ghost-hunting gadgets?"

I let out a hearty laugh, shaking my head. "No, no, Hestia. Nothing like that. I've got a much better idea." I paused for dramatic effect, savoring the look of anticipation on Hestia's face. "I'm going to turn myself into a half-ghost, just like Danny Phantom!"

Here is the continuation of the story from David Miller's perspective:

Hestia's eyes widened in shock, and she leaned back, her hands raised in a gesture of concern. "David-kun, are you serious? You want to intentionally turn yourself into a half-ghost? Do you have any idea how dangerous that could be?"

I couldn't help but chuckle at Hestia's reaction. "Come on, Hestia, don't you see the potential here? Just think about it - I could gain incredible powers, just like Danny Phantom! I'd be able to protect people, fight off ghosts, and have all sorts of cool abilities."

Hestia shook her head vehemently. "But David-kun, what if something goes wrong? What if you end up hurt, or worse?" Her voice trembled with worry. "I couldn't bear the thought of you putting yourself in harm's way like that."

I reached across the table and gently squeezed Hestia's hand, giving her a reassuring smile. "Hestia, I appreciate your concern, really I do. But you've got to trust me on this one. I know what I'm doing, and I'm confident that I can pull this off without any major issues."

Hestia still looked unconvinced, her brow furrowed in worry. "David-kun, I don't know. Shouldn't we at least try to find a safer way to gain powers? One that doesn't involve such a risk?"

I chuckled and gave Hestia's hand a reassuring squeeze. "Hestia, trust me on this one. This is one of the least dangerous ways I could think of to gain powers - no near fatality rate, I promise." I flashed her a comical grin. "Besides, what's life without a little excitement, huh?"

David's confidence came from the fact that this world was based on a children's cartoon. A lot of the shows he'd grown up watching in the 2000s didn't tend to show characters dying or facing serious, lasting consequences. Even Danny's arch-nemesis, Vlad Masters, had merely gained his ghost powers from a freak accident in the lab. With that in mind, David couldn't help but feel a bit more at ease, a mischievous grin spreading across his face.

I held Hestia's small hands in mine, a grin spreading across my face. "Trust me, Hestia, this plan is gonna work! I've got a good feeling about this."

Hestia sighed, her blue eyes looking up at me with a mix of exasperation and reluctant hope. "Oh, alright, David-kun. I'll trust you, but if this goes wrong, I'm holding you responsible, you hear?"

I chuckled, giving her hands a gentle squeeze. "Wouldn't have it any other way, Kami-sama." With a wink, I turned and headed off, ready to put my madcap scheme into motion. What could possibly go wrong?

I strode up to the eccentric Fenton Works, Hestia by my side, her eyes wide with wonder at the strange UFO-like structure atop the building. "Well, this is the place, Hestia," I said with a chuckle. "The home of the famous Danny Phantom, in all its...unique glory."

Hestia tugged at my sleeve, her brow furrowed. "David-kun, are you sure this is safe? That contraption on the roof looks most peculiar."

I grinned and patted her shoulder reassuringly. "Relax, Kami-sama. What's the worst that could happen?"

We sneaked to the side of the house, peeking through a window. Inside, I spotted Jack and Maddie Fenton, the eccentric ghost-hunting parents of Danny Phantom, deep in conversation.

Jack and Maddie were gesticulating wildly, their voices rising and falling in a comical back-and-forth. Jack, with his bulky frame and bright orange jumpsuit, appeared to be explaining some sort of elaborate ghost-hunting device, while Maddie, in her sleek blue suit, listened intently, occasionally interjecting with technical jargon.

I watched the Fentons' exchange with amusement, a grin spreading across my face. Hestia, on the other hand, seemed a bit perplexed by the whole affair.

"Maddie, my love! Just wait until you see what this baby can do!" Jack exclaimed, waving around what looked like a large, clunky weapon.

Maddie eyed the device with a mix of exasperation and curiosity. "Jack, I've told you, we need to make sure these new inventions are safe before you start playing with them. Remember the last time you—"

"Ah, but that's the beauty of it!" Jack interrupted, a mischievous twinkle in his eye. "This Fenton Ghost Annihilator 3000 is foolproof! No more accidental explosions or, er, small fires."

Maddie raised an eyebrow, her lips twitching with the hint of a smile. "Is that so? Well, then by all means, show me what it can do."

Jack's face lit up with glee, and he eagerly pointed the device at a nearby potted plant. "Observe, my dear! Fenton Ghost Annihilator, activate!"

A loud whirring sound filled the air, followed by a bright flash of light. To my surprise, the plant vanished in a puff of smoke, leaving behind only a charred pot.

"Jack Fenton, what on earth—" Maddie began, her voice laced with both exasperation and amusement.

"Aha! I told you it works!" Jack exclaimed triumphantly, turning to Maddie with a proud grin.

I couldn't help but chuckle at the Fentons' antics, their lively exchange a welcome distraction from the weirdness of this whole situation. Hestia, on the other hand, still seemed a bit bewildered by the whole affair.

Just then, a young woman with vibrant red hair entered the room, her expression a mix of exasperation and amusement. "Mom, Dad, what's going on in here?" she asked, her voice laced with a hint of sarcasm.

"Jazz, my dear daughter!" Jack exclaimed, turning to her with a grin. "Your dear old dad is just demonstrating the latest and greatest Fenton invention - the Ghost Annihilator 3000!"

Jazz raised an eyebrow, glancing at the charred remains of the plant. "I can see that. And how's that working out for you?"

Maddie chuckled, shaking her head. "Well, it seems to be effective at, uh, annihilating plants. Though I'm not sure that's quite what we were going for."

"As usual," Jazz muttered, a wry smile tugging at her lips. "I swear, you two are going to burn the house down one of these days."

Jack waved a dismissive hand. "Nonsense, Jazzypants! This baby is completely safe. Isn't that right, Maddie?"

Maddie shot him a skeptical look. "Let's just say I'll be keeping a close eye on it. You know how your inventions can be."

Jazz sighed, running a hand through her hair. "Well, at least try not to destroy the entire neighborhood this time, okay?"

I couldn't help but interject, stepping forward with a grin. "Ah, the famous Fenton family, in all their glory. I have to say, this is quite the show you've got going on here."

I chuckled at the Fentons' antics, shaking my head in amusement. Hestia tugged at my sleeve, her brow furrowed with concern. "David-kun, what should we do now?"

I grinned and patted her shoulder reassuringly. "Don't worry, Kami-sama. I've got a plan." Leaning in closer, I lowered my voice conspiratorially. "We're going to sneak into the basement and recreate the accident that gave Danny his powers. But we'll have to be careful not to get caught."

I grinned and patted Hestia's shoulder reassuringly. "Don't worry, Kami-sama. We'll cross that bridge when we get to it." I chuckled, my voice brimming with mischievous optimism. "Besides, a little adventure never hurt anyone, right?"

I rubbed my chin, my mind racing with ideas on how to sneak into the Fenton's basement. But before I could come up with a plan, the universe seemed to lend a hand - or rather, a ghostly disturbance.

Jack and Maddie suddenly sprang into action, their faces alight with excitement. "A ghost sighting!" Jack bellowed, his voice booming with enthusiasm. "Quickly, Maddie, to the Fenton Ghost Assault Vehicle!"

Maddie nodded, a mischievous grin spreading across her face. "Right behind you, dear!" she replied, grabbing a few gadgets and hustling after her husband.

I watched with amusement as the eccentric couple rushed out the door, leaving their bewildered daughter Jazz shaking her head in exasperation.

"Well, what do you know," I said, turning to Hestia with a conspiratorial wink. "Looks like our opportunity has just presented itself."

Hestia's eyes widened, a mix of excitement and trepidation crossing her features. "David-kun, are you sure this is wise?" she asked, her voice laced with concern. "What if we are discovered?"

I flashed Hestia a reassuring grin. "Don't worry, Kami-sama. With the Fentons out chasing ghosts, we've got a golden opportunity here."

Hestia still seemed unconvinced, but I gently nudged her forward. "Come on, live a little! Where's your sense of adventure?" I winked mischievously.

Carefully, we made our way through the front door, which, as luck would have it, the Fentons had forgotten to lock in their haste. I couldn't help but chuckle at their absentmindedness.

Jazz was still lingering in the living room, so we tiptoed as quietly as possible, doing our best to avoid detection. The last thing we needed was to get caught by the Fenton family's responsible daughter.

With a bit of careful maneuvering, we finally reached the basement door. I turned to Hestia, my eyes gleaming with excitement. "See? Piece of cake. Now, let's go recreate some ghost-powered magic, shall we?"

Keeping our footsteps light, we descended the stairs, our eyes adjusting to the dim lighting. The basement was filled with all sorts of strange, ghostly gadgets and gizmos, and I couldn't help but feel a thrill of anticipation.

I stood before the Ghost Portal, my eyes gleaming with excitement. The swirling green energy within beckoned me, promising untold adventures and power beyond my wildest dreams.

"David-kun, are you sure this is wise?" Hestia asked, her brow furrowed with concern. "What if something goes wrong?"

Beside her, Lunamon nodded, her large eyes filled with worry. "Yes, please be careful. This seems very dangerous."

I flashed Hestia and Lunamon a reassuring grin. "Don't worry, you two. I've got this all under control." With a chuckle, I turned off the Ghost Portal and stepped inside

I could see Hestia and Lunamon's worried looks, and now I was even starting to second guess my plan. Taking a deep breath, I reached out and pressed the on button inside the portal.

Immediately, the Ecto energy surged through me, and the searing pain was unlike anything I had ever felt. My body convulsed as the power coursed through my veins, and before I knew it, everything went dark. The last thing I heard was Hestia and Lunamon's panicked cries as I lost consciousness.
