Yay, I updated (In less than two weeks!)
Enjoy the chapter =)

Chapter 9

It was dark, so dark that Danny couldn't see his outstretched hands. So dark that he couldn't see if he was in his ghost form, or his human form. It was like he was blind to the world around him, aimlessly searching around for some sort of light. He really didn't like the darkness; it gave him chills, as well as a feeling of eeriness. There was no smell or sound to give any indication of where he was.

He was lost.

Then Danny suddenly felt a whisper and a breeze beside his right ear.

The whisper slowly became a voice and then into a chant.

"Why did you leave us?" The voices said.

As Danny listened to the voices he started to recognize the voices.

Suddenly a light shined right above Danny from an unknown source. Danny started to look around and saw Sam with a tear coming done her cheek.

"Why would you leave us?" Sam asked on the verge of sobbing.

"Sam I didn't have a choice, I was attacked and-"

"Then why aren't you back yet?" Tucker interrupted in anger from behind.

Danny turned to Tucker, "I'm sorry I just..." Danny tried to explain but was interrupted again.

"Why would you abandon us for people you don't even know?" Jazz said on Danny's side.

Danny turned to face Jazz who looked like she was trying to decide between a look of anger or despair as she stared at Danny.

Danny then heard some sobbing from behind him.

Danny turned a full 360 degrees to see his parents huddled beside each other crying not even looking at Danny.

Danny turned away from the image of his parents, and felt a tear go down his cheek.

"I'm sorry"

Danny shot his body up and looked around quickly only to find that he's in his "room" as he liked to call it. His whole body was sweating all over body and he was hyperventilating. 'It was just a dream, just a dream' Danny thought in reassurance.

Danny tried to collect himself and try to control himself. But it was difficult as he kept on thinking of the details of the dream.

He started to look around the room that he resided in.

The room was a complete circle because of how the tower was shaped. Dumbledore had provided Danny with a medium sized bed, a desk with a chair, a mirror randomly hung on the wall so Danny could look acceptable. On the right side of the room implanted in the wall was a furnace to keep Danny warm in the winter. Danny told Dumbledore that it was unneeded since his ghost half can withstand any cold, but Dumbledore insisted on Danny to keep it. There was no need for a shower since Dumbledore had shown him a secret shower location in the castle that he could use.

Dumbledore had told Danny that he had the freedom to decorate or add anything he wanted.

But Danny didn't plan to do anything to the room. Danny liked it like this, it was simple and it was not like the wizard community had NASA and rock band posters.

Danny sat up when he finally had calmed down and turned into his ghost form. He turned intangible and went through the wall of the tower into the crisp open air.

Danny started to fly downward towards the Great Hall. He phased through some walls and found his way into the kitchen of Hogwarts where the house elves were busy at work.

Danny landed on the ground and on cue a house elf would rush up with a plate of food and hand it to Danny. With a quick thank you Danny took the food and phased out of the room to find a place to eat.

Once Danny finished eating he gave the plate back to the house elves.

'Wouldn't it be great if I had a house elf back at home?' Danny pondered. He then shook his forgetting about the idea; what would his mum say about taking home a creature that isn't supposed to exist doing his chores.

Danny then turned invisible and intangible and went through the ceiling into the Great Hall above to start his daily routine of watching Harry.

Danny while invisible scanned the table and found Harry talking to Ron, Hermione, Fred and George. After a few minutes Harry and co. got up from the table to begin classes.

'Another boring day of watching other people going through school. Which is more boring than going to school itself!' Danny thought bitterly.

At first watching Harry's classes were amazing to Danny since he was new to the magical world. But over the past two weeks, Danny started to loss interest because of his lack of involvement.

After a few hours of watching Harry's classes Danny decided he had enough and wanted to actually have a conversion with the trio.

Once their herbology class was finished Danny went up ahead of the teens and made himself visible in a corridor up ahead.

As Harry, Ron and Hermione got closer they noticed Danny and waved to him.

"Hey Phantom, how do you like Hogwarts so far?" Harry asked.

"It's great, I'm just so bored these days!" Danny exclaimed.

"I know what you mean." Ron said nodding in agreement.

"Well at least you have classes to go to! I have nothing to do with my free time!" Danny exclaimed.

"Why don't you read some books from the library?" Hermione said.

Harry and Ron looked at her with a look of disdain. "Were trying to find something FUN for him to do, not put him to sleep." Ron said with emphasis on the word fun.

"You know, that's not a bad idea Hermione. Thanks."

Hermione started to blush as her two friends looked at her for a response. "No problem Phantom."

"You do anything for the Order these days." Harry asked hopeful for an answer.

Danny crossed his arms and raised an eyebrow at Harry. "You know I can't tell you that." Danny said teasingly.

"Can't blame a guy for trying" Ron said laughing while patting Harry on the back.

Just as Danny was going to reply a blue chill came from his mouth. He suddenly became alert looking for an enemy only to find himself staring at one of the intangible ghosts who had a wide smile on his face floated towards Danny.

Danny sighed, it just another of one these harmless ghosts that were all around the school.

Through Danny's first week at Hogwarts he kept on sensing these ghosts. But as Danny slowly discovered, he sensed these ghosts only at very close distances. That fact alone, made living in a castle full of friendly ghosts somewhat bearable.

As the ghost neared the three magical teens waved at the ghost. "Hey Sir Nicholas" Hermione said cheerfully.

The ghost named Sir Nicholas had ignored them, having his full focus on Danny. "So it's true. The great halfa, the savior of the ghost zone Danny Phantom is here at Hogwarts!" The ghost said full of enthusiasm.

Danny was nervous; the ghost had actually called him a halfa! "Uh, hey" Danny said rubbing the back of his head. "Who are you?"

"Ah I'm the great knight Sir Nicholas. What an honour to meet you." Nick said while shaking Danny's hand vigorously.

"Wait savior of the ghost zone? What the bloody hell is going on!" Ron said very confused.

Nick turned to them awestruck. "You haven't heard of what he's done!" Nick said very surprised. "Well of course you wouldn't it was an event that happened in the ghost zone."

"What are you talking about Sir Nicholas?" Hermione said very puzzled.

"Phantom here stopped the ghost king from taking over the ghost zone and the earth." Sir Nicholas said with pride. "He's like you Harry in terms of popularity to all of the ghosts."

The magical teens all looked at Danny, before Harry said "Is this true?"

Danny scratched the back of his head nervously, "Yeah, it kind of is."

"Like I said before, what an honour to finally meet you. There were rumors that you were here amongst the ghosts. I see that there's finally a truthful rumor in Hogwarts" Sir Nicholas said shaking Danny's hand again. He started to drift away when Hermione suddenly asked Sir Nicolas a question.

"Sir Nicholas what do you mean you said that Phantom is the great halfa."

"What is a halfa?" Harry asked as well.

Danny stared at the ghost and made a hand motion saying 'Please don't tell them!'

All of the teen's attention was on the intangible knight so they didn't see Danny. Nick saw Danny's plea and respected the young man's wishes.

"It's a special kind of ghost." Sir Nicholas explained in the briefest of words. He then quickly turned to leave.

Hermione ran after the ghost trying to question Sir Nicholas further but he'd gone through the wall. She turned to try to question Danny but just as Sir Nickolas left Danny had turned invisible and left.

'Thank goodness for actual respectful ghosts' Danny thought thankfully.
