The Hypnotist

During the run round the garden Charlie told Fidelio about the ghost boy.
"He must be endowed…" Fidelio said with a thoughtful frown on his face.
"Maybe he's the boy that my aunts want on their side…." Charlie said.

"We can't let that happen." Said a voice behind them. The boys turned round to see Gabriel walking up to them with a determined look in his eyes. Charlie decided that Olivia or Emma had told him about the boy they were discussing.

" I think I know who he is." Gabriel said as they started jogging again. I think It's Jason Phantasias. He came up to his Piano lesson was still packing. He seemed strange he looked at me and I felt as if I was disappearing….

"You don't think they've got to him already?" Fidelio said with an edge of anxiety in his voice.

"It's hard to tell…" Charlie pondered

"I don't think that they could have him already…"

"Maybe Manfred…." Gabriel cut off as he looked to his right.

"Look!" He hissed. The other boys looked round and saw the flame cats darting into a hedge.

"What are they here for…." Charlie asked.

"I don't know…." Gabriel said. He started jogging in the direction of the cats.

"Only I intend to find out" The other two boys followed him. When the boys reached where they saw the flame cats they were waiting for them.

"I think they want us to follow them." Charlie murmured. The boys followed the cats back into the school. Strangely no one seemed to notice them. Charlie put it down to the cats powers. The cats led them to the music cloak room. Where the boys could hear voices.

"I just want to go outside." One said

" I just want to go outside, Sir" The other who Charlie identified as Manfred. There were footsteps and a scuffle It seemed that the boy who's voice they had heard had tried to make a break for it. Only Manfred had stopped him.
"Look at me Phantasias!" Manfred shouted. The boy struggled only stopped when his eyes met Manfred's. Charlie edged his head round the bottom of the door. Jason was was looking directly into Manfred's eyes. Manfred was looking into Jason's only he was sweating. He seemed to be having trouble Hypnotizing him. Charlie at his feet. The flame cats were staring at Manfred as well. After another minute Manfred stopped looking Jason's eyes. Charlie suddenly realized that this boy must be able to Resist Manfred. Or maybe Manfred couldn't hypnotize anymore…. The cats mewed as this thought crossed his mind. Manfred couldn't believe it. He couldn't even hypnotize this boy. His power was gone…. He screamed in a blind rage and aimed a punch right at Jason's head.
