Here we open to the Benton Resident where it's night and where we see Danie asleep with Kiko snuggling next to her. As Danie was sleeping, she moved a bit as her hand then started dripping a dark red fluid and as it dripped it hardened on the floor into a crystal like material. The next day, we see Danie and Kiko wake up.

Danie: *Yawns* Morning Kiko.

Kiko: *Squeaks a good morning*

As Danie got out of her bed, she immediately lost her footing and fell on the floor.

Danie: Oof! What the…!?

Danie looked and saw the floor was encased in red crystal.

Danie: Woah… how the heck did this happen? Kiko? Did you do this?

Kiko shook her head “no” indicating she didn't do this. Just then she noticed Danie's hands dripping dark red fluid dripping on the floor and turning into crystals.

Kiko: *Squeaks and points at Danie's hands*

Danie: My hands? What about my *notices her hands dripping dark red fluid* Woah! What is this stuff?

Danie then focused and the dripping stopped as she went to her desk and got a scanner and picked off one of the dark red crystals and scanned it.

Danie: *Looks at the results* Huh, cerebrospinal fluid, *looks at the floor* Woah wait a minute, this must be a new ghost power, oh cool!

Danie accidentally shot a powerful crystal blast at the ceiling making a stalactite on it.

Danie: Whoopsie… I should probably practice this huh?

Kiko nodded in agreement. We later see Danie and Kiko in an open field where we see Kiko was eating her breakfast.

Kiko: *Squeaky*

Danie: I know Kiko and I'm sorry for bringing to-go breakfast but I just had to test out my new powers after I absorbed that dwarf star.

Danie then glowed red as she turned into her ghost form as Kiko saw this.

Kiko: *Squeaks in concern*

Danie: Don't worry, I know what I'm doing.

Danie spotted a tree as she then shot a red energy blast encasing the tree in dark red crystals.

Danie: Nice.

Just then Danie and Kiko hear Danie's phone ringing as she answers it to see it's Danny.

Danie: Hey Danny?

Danny: *Over phone* Hey Danie, where are you?

Danie: Just in a field training with my powers, why?

Danie and Kiko hear some ghost attacks and the sound of a ghost ray being fired.

Danny: *Over phone* Oh you know, just being attacked by ghosts, as usual.

Danie: Right, we'll be there.

Danie picks up Kiko as she and Danie flew off to Danny. Meanwhile, we see Danny fighting off a giant ghost snake as it tail smacks him into a building as he falls on the ground.

Ghost Snake: Nnnow to end you…

However, before anything could happen, the ghost snake got hit from behind, as the ghost was nearly caught entirely of fire from that attack

Ghost Snake: *In pain* AHHH!...

The ghost snake screamed and tried to roll in an attempt to put itself out from all the flames.

Danny saw where the blast came from and almost smiled when he saw that it was Danie and Kiko, who was pointing a plasma sword that was still smoking and ready for more action. The girl swirled the blade in her hand before placing it onto her shoulder.

Danie: Get away from Danny or I'll turn you into the world's ugliest purse!

Danny: Someone's early.

Danie: Just one of the many perks of absorbing a dwarf star and somehow having a Spectertrix fuse with me. And  I figured I'd wait for you to be in trouble, and then I'd make an awesome heroic entrance. Pretty cool, right?

Danny: *Laughs* Super cool.

The ghostly cobra recovered from the attack and pointed it's attention toward the female on the battlefield. He hissed at her.

Ghost Snake: Who are you sssssupposssse to be?

Danie: The names Ghoul Girl.

Ghost Snake: DON'T YOU DARE LOOK DOWN AT ME, YOU SSSIMPLE-MINDED GIRL! IAM ONE OF THE MOST FORMIDABLE GHOSTSSSS IN THE GHOST ZONE!*re-readied itself to make a strike against Danie*

Danny: Since pretty much every ghost claims that when they come here, I doubt that means much…

Danie: So, Danny...mind if I join the battle? I wanna test out my new powers.

The two unique teens, and Kiko, then faced the ghostly snake, who saw no trouble with the two and refused to give up.

Ghost Snake: Two or two thoussssand, it doesn't matter...I'll ssstiiilI vanquisssh you two! *baring its fangs with an open jaw as its hood spread out*

Danie: We'll see about that. I've been needing a new pair of boots anyway. *charged at the ghost snake with her sword*

Danie swung and tried to slice it in half but it managed to dodge her but got hit by a magical leaf by Kiko as he winced in pain. The ghost snake looks really upset for Danie's earlier comment about boots, intending to swallow her whole for it.

Ghost Snake: Im gonna ssswallow you whole and your demise ssslow and painful! Your ssscreams will be music as you are ssslowly digested!

The snake strided to bite the alien girl, who dodged and Danny quickly fired, not wanting Danie and Kiko to be eaten.

Danie: Huh, kinda reminds of Kevin whenever his car gets totaled, which is like a lot of times.

Danny: Yikes, and that's why I fly to school instead of taking the bus or letting my dad drive.

Danie: Oh man, I hope you don't drive like your dad in future.

Danny: *Sarcastically* Oh haha, very funny.

The battle continued for a few minutes and Danny got an idea. He quickly sent more ice blasts to the snake, making it hard to walk or slither without falling over for a moment, just long enough for him to talk to his temporary partner.

Danny: Hey Monster- err I mean Infinite, I think we might need to wrap things up…

Danie: So any suggestions then?

Kiko: *Meow*

Danny: Like I said, wrap things up *pointing to something nearby*

Danie smirked, liking the idea. She nodded and Danny quickly whispered to her the rest of the details. The snake ghost then recovered and looked even angrier than before.

Ghost Snake: Thaaatttsss it! ItsSSSSs time to treat you two as my newest appetizersss!..

The snake ghost hissed, opening it's jaw as it's about to swallow something whole.

The ghostly hero and alien princess, however, had other plans.

Danny: So not gonna happen, you overgrown, slithering handbag!

Danny and Kiko flew towards the ghost. The snake hissed at the quip as he followed Danny and Kiko, making twists and turns until he felt Danie's blade scratch his face. With a glare, he turned his chase towards the girl as she ducked and weaved through the ghost's body. Soon, the girl stopped as she smiled at the snake.

Ghost Snake: You're mine!...

The ghost snake lunged at the girl, but found himself stopped before his fangs could touch her.

Looking back, the ghost saw he had fallen for the oldest trick in the book, having his body tied up while chasing prey. However, he smirked as he moved back, intending to de-tangled himself but that's when Danny came and froze the ghost to the ground. The snake ghost tried to wriggle free but couldn't.

Ghost Snake: Why do I get the feeling that the other ghost ssssnakesss are never gonna let me live thisssss down?... *grumbled, embarrassed at this current predicament as his enemies continued to mock him*

Danny: Sorry, but you can't open till next Christmas.

Danie punched the ghost in the face, knocking some teeth out.

Danie: Or the Christmas after that. *kicks the snake monster in presumably the belly*

The ghostly cobra was now on the ground, injured and unable to move or even slither at all.

Ghost Snake: *In pain*  Thaaattssss...ssssmaaarrrtttss...

Danie: Serves you right for daring to challenge us and interrupt our day. *loomed over her fallen foe*

Danny quickly pulled out his thermos and sucked his shame enemy inside, trapping him.

Kiko: *Squeaks*

Danie: *Pets Kiko* Yes you did a good job too Kiko.

Danny: That went better than even I expected. Thanks for the help.

Danie: Anytime. *Makes the sword disappear* Man, I am loving my new powers. So how's the chest logo?

Danny: Not bad, how's the whole Infinite hero persona thing going so far?

Danie: Not bad, I feel faster, stronger, and all around awesome. I'm like some alien ninja. I did have plans on testing my powers on some virtual illusions I made myself but this was even better.

Danny laughed at that and gave the girl a nod of approval. A laugh Danie could get used to.

Danny: I guess it could get boring. *quickly noticing the mess they made* This, on the other hand, isn't. Now let's get out of here before the reporters show up and find out an alien just helped me save the town.

Danie: Don't they already know that?

Danny: Let me rephrase, new alien hero.

Danie: Gotcha.

Danie and Danny took off just before people came out of their hiding spots and started wondering where their hero was.

After they won the battle, Danny, Kiko and Danie found a safe hiding spot in an alley. Danny changed back to his human form and Danie changed back to her human form too.

Danny had brought her and Kiko to the Nasty Burger and the alien model was gorging herself on the burgers they had to offer along with Kiko too who was eating her tuna melt.

Danie: *While eating* Mmm, man I can never get over the fact this food is amazing.

Danny: I still can't get over the fact that you're an alien in disguise.

Danie: Why? Your half ghost.

Danny: True, it's just I never dealt with an alien before. So are you and Sam like… cool now?

Danie: *Gulps down her food* Mm, well kinda, she thought I was trying to break you and Star.

Danny: Seriously?

Danie: Yeah, but I'd never do that, you and Star are obviously made for each other.

Danny: True, but it wasn't always smooth sailing.

Danie: Oh yeah, you guys used to hate each other, then you were friends and now you two are dating.

Danny: And happily too. Though it's a pain dealing with her step sister.

Danie: Oh, Colette. She wouldn't stop talking about how you and her are gonna be together and be her king.

Danny: Wait really?

Danie: Yep.

Danny: Like that's ever gonna happen. And I gotta say, what you did to Paulina was a nice thing but are you sure that…

Danie: That she changed? Yes I know, plus remember she left the A-Listers, and humiliated Dash. Though, I'm not sure if Sam believes it, but that's her opinion.

*Wipes her mouth* Mmm, that was good.

Danie to the cashier and gave him $100 hundred dollars much to his shock.

Cashier: Uhhh…

Danie: Keep the change man.

Danie, Kiko and Danny left the restaurant as Danny smiled a bit at Danie generosity.

Danny: You know you didn't have to do that, I could have paid for our lunch.

Danie: Yeah, but I wanted to pay as a thank you for accepting who and what I am. Besides, with how much I eat you should be glad your wallet is alive.

Danny: *Laughs* True.

Later on, we see Danny had brought Danie and Kiko to a play that they were showing in the park, one that retold the story of Hamlet, complete with emulated violence which the alien princess seemed to enjoy and afterwards, they even talked about other Shakespeare stories Danny knew of.

They all grabbed hot dogs, listened to a local band playing and saw kids playing with their dogs.

Right now, they were taking a breather and sitting on a park bench next to a couple of vending machines that offered beverages and snacks respectively. Now they were alone and chatting about what they had seen so far.

Danie: Well the play was nice, even though the monologuing and romance did take away the intensity of the war parts of the story.

Danny: It was a Shakespeare play but yeah, I agree that it was definitely fun to watch.

However, his ghost sense went off and he groaned.

Danny: Not again.

Danie:  Don't worry, I can handle another ghost snake.

Before Danny could say anything, he heard the sounds of a familiar motorcycle and blasts coming from a distance and getting closer towards them. He heard that sound getting louder as he realized it was getting closer to them. A sound that the ghost boy was unfortunately all too familiar with. He saw who it was and frowned.

Danny: Johnny, what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be fixing that bike of yours or doing something to prove to Kitty that she doesn't need to trade up...even if she should?...  *whispered that last part so Johnny couldn't hear it*

Johnny growled at that.

Johnny: Shut up, Little man. I just came to blow off some steam, that's all. As for Kitty, we might have had a spat but she knows that she loves me and things will go back to normal soon.

Danny: Whatever helps you sleep better at night. Assuming you even sleep. Now unless you wanna get your butt kicked, I suggest going back to the ghost zone...some of us actually are hanging out with a cool girl today.

Johnny: What? You? You finally made a move on that gloomy chick in black?

Danie: No, he's hanging out with me. And things were going good till you showed up.

Kiko: *Hisses at Johnny*

However, that would wait. Johnny 13 gasped when he saw Danie and immediately started hitting on her.

Johnny: Hey Kitten, what's a babe like you around these parts? *sent her a flirty look*

Danie: I was hanging out with my friend and playing with my cat, now leave before I rip you a new one.

Johnny: Huh...feisty...I like that in a woman. *trying to act all suave in front of her but he was just angering her more and more*

Danny: Bad move, Johnny...

Johnny: "You gonna do something about it, Little Man? *pointing to his shadow.*

Danny: Me? Looks, like I don't need to.

Johnny: What are you-

Johnny was cut off when Danie did a perfect roundhouse kick right into the middle of the ghost biker's face, sending him flying.

She also landed a good punch on the face thanks to using Ectonurite DNA.

Johnny recovered and seemed shocked by her strength.

Johnny: Dang...what is she? A robot?!...

Danie: You know between dealing with aliens, ghosts, and Sam spying on me, I can finally cut loose!

Danie turned into her Infinite form as Johnny's jaw dropped and soon he was drooling.

Johnny: WOW! I thought you were a 10 before but...dang...you're like a 20 now! *with an impressed whistle*

Danie: I don't wanna talk with you, I wanna kick your butt! Also, 10? Seriously? Either way, now its time to face your doom!

Danie then fired her construct sword and hit Shadow, who had been stunned and forgot to react with intangibility, was hit and was screeching like it was in pain before it was trapped in carbonite.

Johnny: What the- what did you do to my shadow?!

Danie: Relax, these effects only last a few hours...maybe days at the most...but you won't have the time to focus on that!

The biker ghost was panicking now.

Johnny: OH NO! I GOTTA GET OUT OF HERE!

Due to losing his main source of power, Johnny tried to flee but not only did Danie freeze the wheels of his bike to keep him from escaping but he also stopped in front of the punk ghost.

Danny: I don't think so.

Danny punched Johnny square in the face, causing the ghost biker to yell in pain and kneeled over, smarting from the blow.

But this wasn't over as the angry alien model went over to Johnny.

Danie: And this is for calling me Kitten.

Not wanting to waste any more of her swords power on this guy, Danie threw the handle into Johnny's face, causing the greasy-haired ghost biker to fall off his motorcycle completely knocked out cold. With Johnny beaten and on the ground, Danny used the thermos and sucked him in.

Danie: What a coward. He relies on some minion to do his dirty work and runs away the second that things look bad for him. Pathetic.

Danny: Johnny is more of a thug and a nuisance than a real villain, but that doesn't mean that he's not trouble if you aren't careful.

Kiko: *Squeaks*

Danie: Good to know.

The next day, we see Danie in her Infinite form as she looks at Amity Park as she inhales and exhales.

Danie: Look out Amity Park, here comes Infinite. *Stomach rumbles* Right after breakfast.

After a quick breakfast, we cut to a montage of Danie doing heroic acts around Amity Park including saving people, getting cats from trees, helping children cross the road, volunteering as a crossing guard, and volunteering at animal shelters too, all of which ended up in the newspaper.

Jack: *While looking at the news paper* Well now would you look at that, it looks like Amity Park got a new superhero.

Maddie: One with a good fashion sense.

Jazz: What? Who?

Jack: She calls herself Ghoul Girl.

Jazz: Ghoul Girl? What kind of superhero name is that?

Maddie: Well all I can say she's way better than that Phantom kid, see Jazz, *Shows a picture of Danie in ghost mode* Now this is a superhero.

Once Jazz saw the picture, it didn't take long for her to realize that was Danie.

Jazz: *In her head* Danie? What happened to her? Oh whatever she can tell me when she's ready.

Meanwhile, we see Danie and Kiko arrived at school where they saw everyone talking about Infinite as they went to the lockers where they saw the trio.

Danie: Hey guys, what's up?

Sam: Well someone seems popular today.

Kiko: *Squeaks*

Danie: What are you talking about?

In response the goth girl showed Danie the news paper as it said New Ghost Hero for Amity Park.

Danie: Oh that.

Danny: Well I gotta say, congrats Danie.

Tucker: Yeah, way to go dude.

Star: You earned it.

Danie: Aw thanks guys, this is awesome.

Sam: It's not awesome! You're stealing Danny's thunder!

Star: Sam come on she's not stealing Danny's thunder.

Danie: Yeah I'm not stealing anything Sam, and besides I think it's nice that Amity Park has a second hero.

Sam: Amity Park doesn't need a second hero, it only needs one, and that's Danny.

Danny: Sam cool it will you? Plus I think it's nice that Danie’s helping around.

Tucker: Yeah, even if she isn't kicking ghost or alien booty, she's helping out in more ways than one.

Star: Yeah not everything has to involve a dangerous supervillain.

Sam: Yeah right, she's a fame hog.

Danie: Hello I'm right here. And for record, I don't do it just for fame, I do it because it's the right thing to do.

Sam: *Sarcastically* Of course you do, you like “helping” people so much that you'll do anything for fame.

Danie: It's not like that, plus when was the last time you ever donated 10,000 dollars to charity or volunteered at an animal shelter?

Sam: I… uh… w-well…

Danie: Mmhm…

Sam: That still proves I'm right about you doing this for fame you bimbo!

Danie: Am not. And for the record, just because I have a hot body, good looking hair, a hot voice, doesn't make me a bimbo.

Tucker: Preach it sister.

Sam: *Sarcastically* Well I think we all learned a thing or two about sexual stereotypes, *to Danie* While you're stealing Danny's hero cred!

Danny: Sam enough, Danie isn't doing anything wrong here, she's just doing the right thing.

Star: Yeah, besides, what if Amity Park was under attack and Danny isn't around, then what?

Sam: Uh… w-well…

Danie: That's where I come in and save people who are under attack. *hears the bell* Come on guys let's get to class.

We then see Danie, Kiko and the others go to class together, except Sam who was still fuming in rage due to the fact she didn't want to admit Danny was right.

Later that day, we see Danie, Kiko and Danny getting ice cream.

Danie: *Eats her ice cream* Mm, I don't know what Sam's problem is, I'm helping people, not trying to steal your thunder.

Danny: Exactly, and sorry about Sam, she can be a little…

Danie: A pain in the butt to deal with? A nuisance?

Danny: I was gonna say stubborn but yeah that works too.

Danie: You think Sam is ever gonna treat me like an equal and not some stereotype?

Danny: Probably, if she wasn't so stubborn.

Danie: True but then again, we all know that's not gonna happen.

Just then Danny heard sirens and saw both police cars and fire trucks passing nearby and going down the street, which caught their attention.

Danie: What's up?

Danny: Trouble.

Danie: Another ghost?

We then see the duo, and Kiko go behind a tree and change into their alter egos and Kiko wearing a mask.

Danny: Wait, why is Kiko wearing a mask?

Danie: So no one knows it's her duh.

Danny: Good point, now let's go.

Danny, Kiko, and Danie both braved the fire and soon enough, they managed to get everyone out of the building, but they had to also get the fire under control before it spreads. They had to get it under control while they waited for more fire trucks to come. The ghost boy tried to think.

Danny: Let's see… *looked around before seeing a water tower* Cut that free so I can carry that over the building. *as he pointed at it*

Danie: Gotcha

Danie went to the water tower, made a blaster construct and immediately fired, making a hole for the liquid to flood out. But before much was lost, Danie fired an ice beam using Articguana DNA to freeze the water and used a special beam to maintain it, tilting it and keeping the water contained as it was sustained in the air.

Danie: This will do. Now where to?!

Danny blinked when he saw what she just did and how. He just pointed to the building and told her to douse the flames, which the alien model did rather effectively.

Danny: Okay that's kind of cool.

He snapped out of it and went back to trying to save people while Danie started pouring the water into the building. This, along with Danie duplicating herself and using their ice powers, managed to lessen the flames and provide a proper escape route for the trapped citizens until more fire trucks arrived.

Danny: Just a little more.

Danny was using an ice blaster Danie provided While she and Kiko kept dousing flames until more fire trucks came and soon enough, the flames went down and people started cheering.

Person: Thank you, Danny Phantom and your...new friend?

Danny: Oh this is…

Danie: Ghoul Girl part time partner.

Kiko: *Squeaks*

Danie: Oh and this is my pet…Rose.

Danie, Kiko and Danny left the area before the media came and started asking more questions.

The two and Kiko found an isolated spot as they transformed back, resuming their normal forms as they resumed hanging out.

Danny: So part time partners huh?

Danie: Well it makes sense right? We are equal opportunity butt kickers.

Danny: *Chuckles* True.

Just then, Danny's ghost sense went off and a familiar "BEWARE" was heard. He groaned and turned to Danie.

Danny: Stay here. I'll be back in 5 minutes...which may or may not be four more than I need *went to deal with that pest*

Danie: Well guess Sam was wrong, I am not stealing Danny's thunder. In your pasty goth face Manson!

However, a loud voice caught her attention, coming from below the streets.

Little Girl: Mommy!

A girl's voice called out as Danie and Kiko saw one of the girls who got out of the building earlier, running to her mother on the other side of the street.

Danie gasped as she saw the little girl about to be hit by a speeding truck. Without thinking Danie ran and flew over and swiped the girl, putting her out of harm's way in time to avoid the runaway truck at the very last second.

As soon as the crash was over, the little girl looked up to see her in Danie's arms.

Danie: Are you alright kid? *making sure that there was no injuries on her*

Little Girl: Yes! Thank you! *hugged Danie, much to Danie’s surprise*

Danie slowly returned the hug, feeling a warmth in her heart as she let go. The mother arrived shortly, holding onto her daughter with tears in her eyes.

Mother: Thank you for saving my daughter.

Danie: Anytime.

Danny, who had already defeated and captured the Box ghost, smiled at this. He had heard the scream and was about to do something when he saw that Danie had already gotten the girl to safety and reunited with her mother.

Danny: I guess I don't need to get involved then.

Danie: Well someone had to do something when you weren't here.

Danny: True.
