(I did not write Harry Potter nor own it. This is just a story I made up about the Ghosts of harry potter. Enjoy ;) And please come back for the following chapters, I will be working on this story daily.)

In the Footsteps of a Ghost.

Chapter 1

I'm ducking beneath one of the toilets in the girls vicinity. I have never been here in my life and am wondering why anyone would live in such a place. I'm waiting patiently, of course, yet my stomach feels like its going to flip any second now. I'm waiting for her to come in, she should any minute now..

Then I hear it, the screeching and weeping of a young girl, a sad girl.. a dead girl. I rise from my hiding place and face her.

"Hello there."

I say softly as I look at her pale face.

"What?! What are you doing he-- Who are you? You're.. Good lord, you're a boy!"

I smile and nod.

"You shouldn't be here, you shouldn't be here at all! This is a girls washroom! Get out or I'll start screaming!"

She threatens me as I continue to smile.

"You wouldn't do such a thing.. you would never send off company. I am company."

I say sweetly as I continue to gaze into her pale eyes.

"No, I most certainly do not want you here, leave now."

My smile fades as she says those words. But surely I don't give up.. not after all I've done to be here.

"I won't leave, people don't care if I am here Myrtle, no one cares. You are a ghost Myrtle, a ghost lost in the darkness of it all."

Her expression saddens as she hears theses words.

"Don't worry, I am a ghost as well mind you."

She looks at me curiously. She then approaches me.

"How do you know my name? How do you know who I am, that I live here.. in this abandoned vicinity.."

I look at her closely.

"I know a lot. I know that you are lonely."

Her expression saddens yet again and she glares at the floor. She does not speak, so I glide and float beside her.

"I am Xander, a wandering ghost."

She looks at me quite puzzled.

"Wandering? How could you be wandering?"

I look at my see-through feet.

"I just am, it is of no importance, I am nothingness."

We look at each other then stare out the window at the cold environment surrounding us.
