Cameron and Connor were upstairs in Connor’s room. Their moms allowed them to hang out at his house while both the mothers were having a ladies night. Cameron told Connor about the book.

“What do you think it is?” Connor said.

“I don’t know, maybe it’s a curse…” Cameron replied.

“This is exactly like the show I was watching! Jay Danger just pulled out the secret treasure and t-...”

Connor stopped suddenly as he heard a door creak open.

They both heard overlapping voices as the two mothers walked in, laughing and joking about someone named “Rob.”

Connor and Cameron quickly put up all the items they were using to make a plan about the glowing book.

“Hello, children!” both moms said at the same time.

“Hi… mom.” Cameron said.

Connor was leaning against the corner of the wall digging his face into the village newspaper.

“What are you two doing?” Connor’s mom asked.

“Oh uh, just… y-know, hangin’…” Cameron replied as she leaned against a cupboard, just to slip and tumble over.

THUD

Cameron fell on top of the bed while the items on top of the cupboard lie down on the floor, some shattered.

“Oh my Notch! I’m so sorry Miss Robinson… I’ll help pick it up…” Cameron told Connor’s mom, with a sad expression on her face, looking like she was about to cry.

“No no, it’s fine, honey. Connor can help you pick it up while I walk Daisy out of the door.”

Miss Robinson was Connor’s mother. Cameron’s mom’s first name is Daisy.

Connor gave Cameron a nasty look, since his mom volunteered him to do work.

The mothers walked out the door and started jabbering off again.

“C’mon, let’s pick this up.” Cameron told Connor.

“Fine…”

Both were picking up the pieces of the broken figurines when Cameron noticed something from the corner of her eye.

A glowing metallic object was sitting on the windowsill.

“Connor!” Cameron yelled.

“What!?” Connor replied.

“W-what is that…?” Cameron asked.

Connor went to look over at the glowing object.

“No… it can’t be…” Connor whispered.
