PoV Bill
I didn't believe anything that just happened.

I had held him, he was dead! Lungs not breathing, heart not beating, DEAD!

THE ADULT DEMONS SAID HE WAS DEAD!

...and then he just stood up and won the tournament. How?

Did he have powers we didn't know about?

I was still under shock when I hugged him.

Then our older brothers hugged him too.

Our parents looked horrified though.

"How did you do that? We were scared for a moment!", said Chill.

"I have no idea", Will lied. I could tell. I needed to ask him later.

When we went to bed I decided you confront him about it.

"Even if I knew, I couldn't telk you.", he sighed.

I kept bugging him about it, until I got bored and accepted my defeat.

At least I pretended I did.

I had heard Will talk in his sleep, maybe he'd to it again and tell me that way.

It was hard to stay awake with my eyes closed. Eventually I heard him.

"No, I didn't mean to do that! I jumped, right?", he asked. I glanced towards my brother, but to my shock, he seemed to be fully awake!

Who was he talking to?

"I don't know. I'm coming.", he said. Then he looked at me. I quickly closed my eyes.

When I opened them again, the window was open and Will was gone. I jumped up and ran to the window, but I didn't see him.

Where was he?

In the morning Will was asleep in his bed. I didn't see him coming back.

To be honest, I did sleep in.

William was very quiet, as always. The others were very loud, as always.

Soon the weekend was over and we went to school again.

Everyone was looking at us weirdly.

Then Will got called to the principal.

PoV Will
I sat in the big chair and felt kinds lost.

There were 4 men standing in front of me, one being the principal. My teacher was there and I didn't know the other two.

Even my ghosts fled.

"William, do you know why you're here?", the principal asked.

I shook my head.

"Liar.", one of the men barked.

I sank into the chair.

"William. We know you cheated on the tournament. ", my principal said.

"I did not cheat.", I spoke up.

"Then how come your magical signals were there at the beginning and end, but not during the first rounds?", my teacher asked.

"They weren't?", I asked shocked.

"Almost as if you left, then came back.", a man said.

"I was on the field the whole time, I swear.", I said.

"How?"

"I can't explain it, but I can do it right now.",  I claimed.

"Do it.", the principal said.

I concentraded, then did what my ghosts taught me. Become invisible to the living eye.
