"Where is that book on ghosts? I know I remember it having something on this in here!" Alex fumed chucking books from her bookshelf onto the floor.

"Oh no," Alex groaned, "I used it for my project, it's in my locker." She checked her watch, if she left now she could be there mid-lesson time and she wouldn't run into any teachers, hopefully.

"Then I could get my book back and find out how the hell to get rid of this!" Alex grinned triumphantly, suddenly her fists bushed each other and those pale blue rings appeared and changed her into the black and white skinned monster that she had seen in the mirror before. She felt a change in her body come over her, her body felt less… solid… Alex looked down to see her feet slipping through the floor below her, she yelped scared and fell completely through the floor, landing with a thud on the floor below, she changed back to her usual self and groaned and hobbled off to school muttering angrily.

Alex pushed open the doors to Casper High and peered down the hallway. The coast was clear. She carefully slipped in and crept down the hall ducking under classroom windows until she got to her locker, pulling the key out of her pocket she unlocked it and pulled out the book she needed.

"What's this?" Mr Lancer's voice enquired from behind her. Alex gasped and spun around clutching the book to her chest, Mr Lancer advanced towards her.

"Mr Lancer I-" Alex began quickly but was cut off by Mr Lancer.

"MOBY DICK!" Mr Lancer exclaimed stumbling backwards looking terrified.

"Who- who's there?" He demanded looking around desperately to find whichever teenager was playing this horrible prank on him. Alex frowned and waved a hand in front of Mr Lancer's face, she gasped, there was no hand there just a faint blue line that she could barely see. She… was invisible. Alex whimpered barely noticing Mr Lancer backing away, she needed to figure out how to cure this, and fast! Absentmindedly she turned and slammed her locker shut before leaving and forever traumatizing Mr Lancer as he ran off screaming like a girl.

"Come on…" Alex muttered scrunching her eyes up.

"Become visible damnit." She hissed to herself. Slowly her body faded back into view and only when she was sure of herself did she move back to her home. After all, as much as she loved her family they were very ghost obsessed and she didn't know how well they'd take it. An image of herself tied down to a table with her grandparents about to 'investigate' her popped into her head. She shuddered, not a great idea.

Down the hallway a boy watched with interest, he couldn't wait until he told his master THIS!

Alex managed to make it through her week of suspension without her family finding out about her new powers and she gained a little control over them as well. It was only at school that things started going wrong, stress apparently weakened what little control that she had over her powers and when things got worse she got even more stressed and then things started going even more wrong. It didn't help that someone managed to show up out of the blue.

Alex was putting her books into her locker, shoving them in against the sheer weight of the unorganized packed mass that was in there already, she quickly slammed the door before anything could fall out.

"Hey!" A voice from behind her said and tapped her on the shoulder.

"Argh!" Alex yelped, her arm slipping through the metal door in her locker. She quickly yanked her arm back out and spun around terrified she'd been found out, it was then that she came face to face with those rich chocolate eyes.

"Oh! Max right?" Alex said surprised.

"Right, so this is your school too then?" Max asked looking around happily.

"Yeah. Popular kids and all." Alex muttered as some popular girls walked by and sneered at her.

"I'm sure it's not that bad." Max laughed.

"Believe me, it is, what are you doing here anyway?" Alex asked curiously.

"I just transferred here, I'm new remember?" he smiled at her, Alex was aware of the affect his smile was having on her normally anti-social character.

"Cool." She nodded lacking anything else to say.

"Actually, I was wondering if you could tell me where here is exactly. I'm kinda lost." Max admitted sheepishly and offered Alex his new timetable. She took it off of him gently, her fingers brushing his for a second, her face reddened.

"Oh! You have science next with me, I'll show you where it is!" Alex offered helpfully.

"Alex! I- who the hell are you?" Josh demanded glowering at Max.

"Way to go Mr. Social Skills." Aaron sighed rolling his eyes as he arrived after Josh.

"Josh, this is Max. Max, Josh." Alex introduced.

"Hi!" Max smiled sweetly, Josh glared at him and muttered a 'hi' to him.

"And this is Aaron, he's a Jock slash Nerd hybrid and annoyingly articulate." Alex grinned.

"What she means is I save her butt in English class and she still owes me." Aaron said pointedly.

"Heh, and here I thought you couldn't get that combination." Max smiled.

"Eh, someone has gotta be that odd statistic, might as well be me." Aaron laughed, "Where are you headed by the way?"

"Science with Alex apparently, you?" Max replied.

"Ah. Maths, joy of joys." Aaron smiled, "And speaking of which we gotta go Josh." Aaron said walking off. Josh stayed where he was and glared at Max who looked very uncomfortable at this.

"I SAID we have to go Josh." Aaron repeated dragging Josh off by the scruff of the neck.

"Uhm… science?" Alex asked trying to cover up her friend's weirdness with cheerfulness.

"Sure." Max agreed.

"What'd you do that for!" Josh demanded angrily as he struggled out of Aaron's grasp.

"What'd YOU do that for?" Aaron shot back.

"That guy is EVIL! Can't you tell?" Josh snapped.

"How? He was nothing but polite to you and you were acting like a jerk!" Aaron snapped.

"No! Look at that!" Josh exclaimed pointing at Alex and Max in the distance. Max said something to Alex with a sexy smile on, Alex laughed and blushed.

"Oh NO! Someone is FLIRTING with Alex! Quick! Alert the police! No, alert Batman!" Aaron shouted sarcastically waving his arms in the air in mock panic.

"Evil." Josh stated angrily.

"Big deal, if you ain't gonna tell Alex that you like her then you've got no right to get pissy when someone else does." Aaron pointed out irritated.

"I DON'T like Alex, I just-" Josh began but Aaron cut him off.

"Don't bother, you're not fooling anyone. Seriously, drop it." Aaron sighed.

"I- but- he's evil I tell you!" Josh whimpered following after Aaron.
