Green Mill: The Kid

    "He likes chasing the shadows on walls" Daisy said with a straight face. Charlie realized that she could not be serious about her proclamation, after all the shadows on the wall stayed still, for the most part. "I've always known that The Kid was a little off" Charlie replied. The Kid had been missing for several days now, no one had seen him since he went into Witchipoo's house across the street. His parents called the police and sent out search teams through a ten mile radius of the Green Mill subdivision. They even searched Wichipoo's house and had found nothing except peeling wallpaper and old furniture. Daisy and Charlie sat on edge of the front porch their house swinging their legs, "What do you think happened to him Charlie" Daisy said in between huge gulps of lemonade and bites of ginger-snaps. Charlie stared at the flowery, overgrown, house across the street, "Maybe he fell in" he said.
