Hard Candy
Micah and Molly slouched on the couch flipping quickly through channels on TV.
“I’m bored.” Molly complained as Micah sighed and slumped lower.
“Me too.” Micah agreed and then perked up. “Hey wait, I have an idea!”
Micah scurried off and hurried back, his school bag in tow.
“What is it?” Molly asked curiously.
Micah opened his bag and poured the contents onto the floor.
“Candy! Where did you get this all from?” Molly asked incredulously.
Micah grinned at her. “Let’s just say that I have a way with candy machines…”
Molly’s eyes widened. “You used your power? Micah, you know that’s wrong!”
“It was just this once.” Micah shrugged. “C’mon, dig in.”
Molly watched Micah carefully as he unwrapped a chocolate bar and took a bite out of it. She had to admit that it looked too good to pass up, so she joined him.
The pile of candy was gone within a matter of minutes.

DL let his shoulders fall as he walked through the front door. He had had a long and hard day and now all he wanted to do was waste his evening away watching TV.
“Micah?” DL called out, looking around the house for his son. Instead all he found was a pile of candy wrappers on the floor.
“Oh no.”
“I found him!” Came a giggle from outside. DL followed the sound and found Molly and Micah on the back porch.
“What are you two doing out here?”
“Shh!” Micah silenced his father. “We’re having fun.”
DL noticed another pile of items on the ground in disarray and gave Micah a warning look. “Son…”
“I’m tracking the neighbours.” Molly announced.
DL shot her a look. “What? Why?”
“As soon as they’re out of the house we grab something. Anything. We want to see how long it takes them to notice.” Micah explained. “And there’s no way we’ll get caught, I know my way around every type of security system.”
DL eyes widened as he realized what they were up to. “You’re stealing!”
Micah and Molly laughed louder than was necessary. DL lowered his voice and settled into a serious tone. “You know you can’t do this. You can’t mess around with your powers just for fun.”
“Relax, dad. We’ll put all of their stuff back when we’re done with it.” Micah replied simply.
Molly perked up. “The Stevensons just left their house!” Immediately Micah and Molly bolted, making their way down the street.
DL sighed and began chasing after them. A kid on a sugar rush was bad enough, but two kids with special powers on a sugar rush? DL was in for a long night…
