Chapter three

Leah absentmindedly watched her fingers take turn disappearing, it was one of the few things that kept her amused in the longs hours at Bloors. Of course unlike the other students she couldn't just go and blend in with he crowd. She knew that her stupid git of a brother had already run off to their father, blabbing she had returned. Dr. Bloor won't be amused, he had so carefully gotten rid of her, he considered it inhumane for her brother to simply hypnotise her, seeing as hewas her brother. He thought her disappearance through so thoroughly no one thought to come after her. More honestly, no one thought she existed, a rather comforting thought when your endowment is the ability to become invisible. A nasty coincidence? Leah doubted it, her horrible father probably thought that as a clever added bonus to his plan. Unfortunately he didn't take into plan that she may return. What's more Leah had to find her mother on top of all the pressure of not being found. Was her mother still in the school? She defiantly wasn't part of the family, but maybe she was still here. Where else could she go? What else could she do? More to the point what was Leah going to do? There was a creak of a floorboard and Leah looked up. Being extra careful she became transparent and lifted herself to her feet, she may be invisible but didn't change the fact she could make noise. She peeked round the corner, not sure what she would see. She let out an involuntary gasp as she saw Manfred swinging his arms about wildly down the hall,

"I know you're here, Leah. Get your cowardly ass out here. Right now."

Leah rolled her eyes, as Manfred tried to make eye contact where he thought she was. Instead he was just glaring at the wall, no where near her.

"You know, I'm taller than that."

Manfred jumped and walked determined over to where her voice had come from. Leah held back a laugh as she slipped past and tip toed to the other end of the hall. Manfred stood directly in front of the spot where she had just been and continued to look at the height he was glaring at before.

"Manfred, I wasn't kidding. If I really was there you'd be staring at my chest. You don't stare at your little sister's chest, it's just wrong."

Manfred spun around and marched over to where she was, but she once more slipped away.

"Just because you're invisible lil' sis' doesn't mean I can't see you," he snarled.

"Being invisible means you can't see me, you idiot."

Once again Manfred stomped over to where she was standing. She choose to stay put, as Manfred continued looking at the wrong height.

"Well, true I can't see, but I can defiantly figure out where you are and I know for a fact that you've moved once more."

Leah gave him a shove, catching him off guard. She then turned and walked away saying,

"Don't think I'm so predictable. I could do anything."

"Oh really, like to see you try! You saw all those kids in the Kings Room, they all have powers and their under my control. Anything you can do, they can do in their own way. Twice as better." He hissed.

"All in your control? Yea right, and pigs fly!" Leah's voice called from down several stairs.

Manfred scowled,

"They could do..."
