"Oh, hey there, Cayden," Anna said, not glancing up from the book she was skimming through. She'd reached a really good part, and she didn't want to lose her place. "How's it going?" Anna read on a little further, then promptly slapped the book closed. She slid it back on the shelf where it belonged. It had turned out to be a false alarm in her search for more information about Peeves.

As the Gryffindor Prefect spoke of what book she was looking for, Lyra noticed something out of the corner of her eye.
There floating along the aisle was..."Umm...Banana...er...why don't you ask...her?" Lyra punched Anna in the arm and then pointed towards the ghost that was floating. Her eyes fell upon Cayden that was trying to talk to the ghost and then smiled back at her. She returned the smile and then her eyes fell back to the floating ghost.
"Yeah, yeah," Anna said, running her fingers along the books once more. Were there
not any books on Peeves in the library? There had to be---
somewhere. Professor Shackleton had mentioned that the Poltergeist was mentioned in
Hogwarts, a History, so the chances that it was also mentioned in another book were really high. Anna had promised a good many people she'd try her hardest to solve the Poltergeist issue, so that's what she was doing.
"Yesss?" Anna asked, still not looking up from the shelves. Anna finally looked up to see who it was Lyra was referring to. Had this been any other day and time, Anna just might have run screaming for the doors. It just so happened that this was her fourth different ghost to see, and she'd gotten a little used to them by now. Besides Peeves, most seemed to be harmless. "Oh, hello there," Anna said, smiling up at the ghost. As she looked up, Anna spotted the
one book she'd been looking for all along. The ghost was standing directly in front of it, though. Anna couldn't just reach right through her---
could she? No, that didn't seem to be proper etiquette for interacting with a ghost at all. "Excuse me, ma'am? May I get that book behind you, please?" Anna asked.

"A type of ghost," Anna simply answered. "Specifically one that causes a great deal of chaos." She didn't intend to scare poor Theo, but the truth was that he'd find out sooner or later. Better to tell him
now than to let him see them himself without being warned. "They're here---at Hogwarts," she added.
