Nick Pinto sat up in bed. His red hair was flat on one side. He blinked and rubbed his sleepy brown eyes.
Nick thought he'd heard as strange noise outside his bedroom. Yawning, he climbed out of bed. He tiptoed by his twin brother's bed. He stepped over the two lumpy sleeping bags on the floor.
Nick put his ear to the door. No noises. He opened the door. Nothing out there.
Then he noticed a bright light out side his bedroom window.
"Oh my gosh!" he said.
Nick ran to his brother's bed.
"Hey, Brian. Wake up!" Nick whispered.
"Umph, "Brian mumbled.
Nick poked Brian's leg. "Bri, wake up! There are weird lights in the backyard!"
A sleeping bag sat up. Inside it was Nate Hathaway, one of Nick's best friends. "Let me see!" Nate said. He crawled out of his bag. Nate had black hair, like his sister, Ruth Rose. The twins' older brother, Josh, was best friends with Ruth Rose and her neighbor dink Duncan.
The other sleeping bag popped up. It was Lucy Armstrong. she was Dink's cousin, visiting for a year from California. Her Parents were helping build a school on a reservation in Arizona.
