Short Story
​
Synopsis:
I had just turned to head inside when, it happened. The air grew cold, I felt the hairs on my neck stand on end. “Look, Jess? LOOK!” he said. I turned and saw the metal can start to rise. Floating, like nothing I had ever seen before. I tried to make fun of his magic trick but he was suddenly so still and calm with a laser focus. I had never seen him like this. The can started to shake and so did Chris. His fingers curled, his knees buckled, his head rattled. He was losing it. I dropped my bag and ran to him. The can shook more and more. And Chris dropped.
