I’ll never forget where I was when I first saw the lights. I was out in the river wash west of Cashes Dade playing hide and seek with my friend Blake. He’s in the Sixth Grade with me. This is classified, so don’t tell anyone we were playing out there, it’s a secret. You see, the river wash is a massive field with many of these narrow valleys where at any moment fast raging waves just roll through before going back out to the river. I know, I know, it’s kind of sort of dangerous, but it’s not as risky as it sounds. You just have to be ready, like all the time, otherwise at any moment you might get swept up in the rush. Anyway, I was hiding behind the haunted stones. I saw Blake getting close. He’s fast, but I’m fast and stealthy. I shot out like a lightning flash…Blake says they’re not haunted, but I know they are. They glow when the sun sets and no, it’s not just the light reflecting. You see, I’ve also seen them light up…sorry, that’s not the point. What was I saying? Oh yeah, so I ran past and scrambled up some large stones. It took me only 3 jumps. That’s a new record! I did. Seriously. I really did. Anyway, that’s when I saw the flash. The entire sky lit up in this green flash like a slow explosion. Then the rush came. I heard this loud boom like a cannon taking up the entire sky. It pushed me back. That’s when I saw them, these triangle shapes lit up in bluish-gold lights like they were on fire. Then, I didn’t know what they were, but I do now. It’s a night I’ll never forget, the night the aliens invaded our Kingdoms. Then, they invaded our schools…
