Last Time: "Well, don't worry, I won't tell you to go away. Would you be okay if I brought some friends here next time? We can all work together to and figure it out." Danny asked. Myrtle seemed delighted.

"Oh, well okay. I don't mind. But only because you're the King." She said.

"Word travels fast Huh?" Danny asked. The coronation had happened in the short time between finding out he was king and going to school. Not many ghosts had been there but apparently every ghost knew. Clockwork probably had some kind if newsletter sent out.

And Now:
---

Danny was spending a lot of time in the library, which in its self was something Jazz would be proud of. Except he wasn't there for school needs most of the time. He, Dale, Hanna and Dina, who'd heard them planning and wanted in, were looking for ways to become Animagi. Now of course that didn't mean Danny had neglected his studies. He was currently in the library doing his Defence Against the Dark Arts homework. Professor Quirell was a jumpy man that Danny had a hard time getting along with. It felt like his ghost sense was going to go off but it never did. Like it was stuck in his throat which caused Danny some discomfort. He couldn't figure out why. Danny moved from sitting with Dale, Hannah and Dina at lunch to sometimes sitting with Harry and Ron, who seemed to be having their own little adventure. Danny was a bit sad not to be a part of it but it couldn't be helped. When he did sit with Harry and Ron they played the jelly bean roulette game. Which had begun to spread. Other groups and other houses starting to join in or order their own jelly beans and playing with their friends.

Dale sighed and closed his book. "Done." He said cheerfully.

"I'm almost done." Hanna replied.

Dina was explaining the many uses of wolfsbane to Danny when there was an odd noise to their left the four looked in that direction with a frown.

"Why do we always sit so close to the restricted section?" Dina grumbled.

"Restricted section?" Dale asked intrigued.

"Books that students aren't supposed to read." Dina explained. "Apparently it's all topics that are restricted to certain years or just aren't supposed to be learnt. I heard some of them are even cursed."

"You reckon the key to being an Animagi is in there?" Hanna asked.

"Quite possibly. But we'd never be allowed in there." Dina sighed.

"Leave that to me. I'll find a way." Danny assured them. "I'll do it during lunch today."

"Yeah okay and I'll teach a narwhal to fly." Dina snorted.

"You won't be laughing when I get the answer." Danny huffed. "Now shush. I'm gonna write a letter to my parents and friends."

"Say hi to Sam for me." Hannah said. Danny had spoken fondly of his Hogwarts friends in his previous letters and Hannah and Sam had really hit it off over the letters. Apparently they were pen pals now, using Danny as a medium. Tucker would send long, detailed explanations of muggle devices specifically for Dale, which he always looked forward to reading since he couldn't get a straight answer out of Danny. Dina sent her own letters to Jazz, Danny suspected she was telling Jazz if Danny was being good or not.

During lunch Danny went off to the library, while his friends waited with Myrtle in the girls bathroom, Dale complaining about being out numbered. Danny waited until he was alone and transformed behind a shelf before taking off, invisible, into the restricted section. He turned visible as he scanned the titles, getting bad vibes from certain books, he guessed they were the cursed ones. He heard a few giving off muffled screams when he drew near. He yelped as he heard a meow. He looked to see Mrs Norris, Filch's guard cat. Which meant Filch was near by. Danny eyed the cat who eyed him back and meowed again.
