After he read the basics and had read the part to hypnotizing with the voice, he decided he would try an animal. As he walked to the door he saw an owl fly to his window with a note. It said "Hello, hope your well, Dad".
"Oh, isn't he nice." Draco said, "Well, while the owls here…" and he grabbed the owl by the wing. It froze! Not wanting to hurt its wing, Draco put in his cage he kept for his own owl. "Okay, now what?" Draco flipped the book open to a page named "Hypnotizing an Animal"
In order to get into the thoughts of the animal you are trying to hypnotize, you must first calm it down. The way to do this is simple. Talking is known to calm most humans as well as animals so just take it slow and easy.
"This should be easy then," Draco said with a grin. He looked at the bird and started to talk, as he did the owl's eyes seem to droop lower and lower and Draco kept talking on and on until the bird was not truly awake nor asleep.
Now, the animal should be droopy and weak. This is the perfect time to start giving instructions. As said on page 12, all things are in the circle of life and therefore have the ability to listen to English, though they can not speak it.
Draco looked at the bird with satisfaction. "Okay then, owl, start to fly in circles when I say 'cage' and stop when I say stop." The owl did not move one inch. "Cage!"Draco cried and the bird started to fly in circles just like Draco had told it too. "Stop!" The bird stopped in midcourse and fell down to the floor and sat there as though nothing had happened.
To get the animal out of the trance you (and you alone) have to yell 'Awake' and the trance will lift and they will not remember anything that has jus happened.
Draco looked surprised. "That's it? Oh well, awake you silly bird." The owl shot up and flew away as if its letter had just been delivered. "Wow that was fun"
What if I could get a show for this! That would be awesome." Draco sneered at the thought.
Soon, it was widely known that Draco was going to perform in the great hall at 8 pm a week later. Harry, Ron, and Hermione didn't want to go really but Ginny made them come with her.
"Do we really have to be here, Ginny? I mean, this is Malfoy we're talking about. He isn't exactly the best person and is probably doing this to get something out of everyone.
Ginny looked excited, "Yes, you do!"
As everyone took their seats around a large table, the lights dimmed and Draco walked out onto the table and stood in the center. "Witches and Wizards of all ages, I give you the amazing Hypnotist." Draco then was in the spot light and everyone clapped.
"Now, you might be saying, hypnosis is not real. But with my show, you will see it is. Tonight, I will show you the basics. I will hypnotize animals from all over to do stuff even you would not think possible." The show went up from there as Draco brought out snakes, owls, baggers, ravens, and even a small lion cub. As all these animals did tricks at the command of Draco, the audience clapped fervently.
"That is the end of my show for tonight but next week, same place and time, I will have non-living things such as quills or papers do stuff. Come back and be amazed by the amazing Hypnotist."
Everyone left and as they did Harry, Ron, and Hermione came out and said to one another "Wow that was good. I hope it doesn't get better then that though. If it does, I'll be forced to congratulate him." They left while laughing and Draco sneered.
"Oh, it will be better! I can promise you," Draco said, and strolled off.
