Snap, Crackle, Kill

Short Story

Jackie is nine-years-old and seems like a typical kid until you talk to his friend, Stuart. No one else can see or hear Stuart except Jackie. It was Stuart's idea to start that fire and it was Stuart who wet Jackie's bed. It was Stuart who told Jackie to kill those little animals. Jackie looks out his window to see little Timmy playing across the street. He'd better hope Stuart doesn't hurt that little kid.
