When a teenager discovers he can summon a spiritual beast when in danger, he will have to learn how to control his gift if he is to stop a murder who targets those with abilities like himself.

Hi KnowledgeKnight,
Sounds like a revamp of "Jumper" to me. There the twist is that his own mother was actually one of those who were after "gifted" people. What is the twist in your story and how does it innovate on the idea of someone being persecuted for being different/special? This is a very recurrent theme in countless stories... Is your hero the one actively hunting down the hunter, or is he on the run like Jumper?

oops - wasn't logged int for that Lx comment.

Hey KK. Your first version worked for me and the second fixed a little error. As a story idea it grabbed me. I'm fine with a "spiritual beast: Of course I don't know what it is, and that makes it interesting. Internal / external - it's your story idea, you decide. The somehow knowing murderer created a sense of mystery for me. How does the murderer know, how does he/she find your teenager and why is the possession of this gift a cause to murder? All intriguing questions. I see some parallels in your story with "Jumper" of 2008 - Kid, special power, need to control, targeted because of special power. Just a heads up to make sure your story is different.
