My Search for the Wizard

Now, although I may joke around about this a lot, it is 100% serious.

Introduction:
After school, every day, I always visit my old Elementary School. There's a janitor, like most schools. Me and my friend, Noah, always use the bathroom there, hoping to meet teachers on our way.
Now, this was like any other day. We got to the bathroom.
I opened the door, saw the janitor. I closed the door, turned to my friend (still holding the very handle) and said, "He scares me."
I opened the door again, maybe three seconds after the first time, and the man was simply gone‼ I checked all throughout the small bathroom. That is the only door there. The janitors' closet had been left open, as well. This has led me to believe that he is a Wizard, or something of the sort.

This is my journal on the topic.

:shock: :roll: :panic:

Day 1:
04-15-10, about 3:00 PM-4:00 PM
We went to the school, my friend and I. We went in that bathroom, he was not there.
We went to the other building, only to find him cleaning a teacher's room. I confronted him; this is the conversation,

Me: You're a Wizard, aren't you??
Wizard: No.
Me: Yes you are‼
Wizard: Get out [of the building]
Noah and I hung out outside of the building, discussing this. I went back in.
Wizard [upon seeing me]: Is there a reason you're in here??
Me: I know you're a Wizard‼
Wizard: No, I'm not.
Me: Yes you are, I've seen you vanish‼
Wizard: [No Comment]
Me: Can you teach me to be a Wizard??
Wizard: No
Me: [I forget]
Wizard: [response to my forgetful words]
Me: Can you teach me to be a Wizard??
Wizard: No‼
Me: Why not??
Wizard: Because I'm not a wizard‼

At that point I left.
I believe that in the OP, I forgot to mention;
I have two goals in this.
1.) To find out what he really is.

2.) To find out how to do it for myself, assuming I can.

So far, he has denied any involvement with magic. I don't believe this what-so-ever.
I know what I've seen.
I know what I know.

Dude, snap out of it. This isn't Harry Potter. :lol:

Reminds me of Socrates from The Peaceful Warrior. Have you seen that? If not, you should rent it. Great movie.

I do not actually believe that he is a Wizard, per say.
But, I know what I saw....

You never know, there could be a secret passage in the school bathroom. That would actually be pretty cool, and slightly possible if the school is over a 100 years old.

Also instead of yelling at him that he is a wizard. Probably should of been like, "I saw you in the bathroom the other day and I turned around and you disappeared. You didn't leave the door, what happened?" In which case he may have told you what happened. Unless he really can disappear, then his excuse probably would of been something really stupid.

Well, I was thinking of doing that tomorrow. And, no, the school is.... Maybe 30 at the most. And he's new, this year, so I doubt he'd know about it even if there was.
Also, I didn't yell at him. I simply persisted to follow him asking him about his Wizardry.

If he practiced magick, he probably wouldn't want to be called a wizard.


Than again you may just not have noticed him slip out, or maybe he was ducked down somewhere and you thought he was gone.

Magick is amazing, but I've never seen anyone disappear.

I never let go of the handle. and, no, I checked EVERYWHERE. It's not a very big bathroom....

Maybe he didn't disappear? Maybe he turned invisible because he thinks no one notices this poor old custodian! And of course a wizard would say "No I'm not a wizard" lol!

IKR??
Lulz

Hmmm. Never really seen somebody "disappear". That's weird but fascination.

This is a joke, right...?

Nope, he's serious.

Actually; No XD

Here's a possibility: you saw his reflection in the bathroom mirror, he was actually behind you.

I didn't look at the mirror, he was in the goddamned janitors' closet‼

It is not something that is taught, and so he will not teach you.
All wielders of the arcane are self made, and make that visible to none.

I beg to differ. Whatshisfce taught Mickey Mouse.

Epic win, Raccoon Boy :P

Everyone knows the wizard is nothing but an old man behind a curtain...

I read the book...obviously from my sig and below my avatar lol. This was my first thought too.

This is a fun thread. Please continue.

Remember how in Harry Potter, the witches and wizards had to reach that one train platform by running straight through a brick wall? That may be where his lair is... might be something for you to try.

Interesting. So you really think this janitor has some form of magical powers? Had you been on any mind altering substances? That's a serious question, I'm not mocking your belief that the janitor is a wizard.

Nope. You know, I'm not really convinced he has magical powers, I just want an explanation....

Maybe he can walk through walls. But why be a janitor when you can walk right into a vault and steal millions. I know that is what i would be doing instead of being a janitor.

It is a rare instance where he was in two places at once. You saw him so he appeared in that room but then you looked away, and at the exact same instance someone saw him in another location. Since at that brief moment the other person was observing him and didn't look away but you were and did look away, he no longer exited where you were, but instead existed only in the other location that he was being observed in. Then since they got a better view of him, reality shifted so that he had always been in the other location, and was never in the bathroom.

At least its theoretically possible that is what happened, though very unlikely. If you could some how prove that is what had happened however, it would be a major scientific breakthrough!

Because wizards value material things.

Maybe a doppelganger? I've read some interesting stories about them.

Possibly.
I've read up on them as well.

Have you asked him straight out where he went on that day? You could have possibly been hallucinating?
Also while on the topic, Doppelgänger, I have had many moments in my life where I have seen someone in front of me only to look behind me and have them standing there. I have seen my mum standing in my room staring at me while I sleep, she walked out and of course I followed to my parents room only to find my mum and dad still asleep. Anyway, it gives me the creeps when I think about it and remember, the brain is very, very powerful :P

EDIT: I have a story, no time to post now so PM me when you get back on and I'll Type it up for you. My dad experienced this with his friends when he was younger.

My dads Experience: Him and a few of his mates were sitting out the front of his friends house, just sitting there talking under the light of the street lamp. After a while his friends dad jumped the fence and said he was going to get some more beer, they sat there talking for about another 30 seconds when his friends dad jumped the fence once again and said the exact same words. They asked him how he got back in the house but all he said was "I never left". My dad and all his friends saw it and all his mates still remember it.

Anyway, do you believe in ghosts, Spirits, Doppelgänger etc. ?

You sure you didn't dreamed this? Sometimes dreams can be realistic as hell and they can trick you into thinking your awake. Janitors just don't vanish out of no where. Ask him if hes been practicing magic with Criss Angel the next time you see him. Ask the principal or teacher who the guy is. Tell them he vanished out of no where the last time you saw him. Heads up, If you tell them that they'll probably think your crazy.

Aw, come on :\
I KNOW when I'm not dreaming (but not always when I am, even though that is, evidently, my goal). It's A LOT easier to tell when you're not dreaming than when you are.

Sorry for the double-post, it's necessary, but don't ask me why it's necessary :\

I work as a Paranormal Investigator and am, indeed, certified for the position, so....
yeah XD

LOL I agree..


Well, maybe the guy can astral poject... (I read a story of a teacher, this lady could be teaching in front of the class, and kids reported seeing her behind them also... she was in to places at the same time!!)

OR maybe the guy has a strong energy, and he likes cleaning the school so much, he left his impression of cleaning the bathroom :lol:... maybe you're so perceptive you saw this 'impression'... I'm serious!
maybe something went thru his head at some point he was in that bathroom.. caused such an impact on the guy, his energy was left there... when you walked in, (in a receptive way) you saw him... when you walked in again, your mind was in a different state, you missed it... doesn't make him a wizard... maybe you're the weirdo who can actually see these sort of energy fields :lol:


hehe, just a theory!!! lol

I read the story of that one lady too‼
Anyway, I hope I am that weirdo ^-^

Maybe hes a ghost! O_O You really wouldn't know.
