Nina's POV

It was just another day, not really of importance to record, actually. But boy was I wrong.

I was sitting in the dining room, awaiting Trudy's infamous pancakes. Alfie staggered in, trying to keep himself up.

"Are you drunk, Alfie?" I asked him.

"No," he mumbled. "I was up all night studying for Ms. Anderson's test." He crashed into his seat.

Mara laughed. "That's what you get for procrastinating."

Before Alfie could make a snappy comeback, Trudy came in with a platter of her pancakes. "Eat up!"

The doorbell rang. "I'll get it." Trudy said.

I was too busy talking about the test to see who came in. Like I said, it was an average Monday.

"Kids," Trudy said. "These are kids who go to a camp I teach at during the summer. They've requested my presence immediately. Since I can't leave you guys alone," We glared at Alfie and Jerome, "I have to bring you with me."

Mara and Alfie had shocked expressions. "What about the test?" Trudy explained that we've been excused from tests starting now. "I wasted nine hours of sleep for nothing!" Alfie passed out. Very smart, Alfie.

There were three kids standing next to Trudy; a boy with outrageously messy hair that was hidden under a Rasta cap, a girl with curly blonde hair and serious grey eyes, and another boy who had straight, black hair and bright green eyes. They all wore a simple orange T-shirts with letters I didn't recognized. I don't know why, but I think I've met the boy with black hair somewhere, sometime ago.

"Now, you guys have half an hour to pack and we're leaving." Trudy and the three kids went to the porch to discuss something.

It only took me about ten minutes to pack up, give or take. The rest of the twenty minutes I wasted trying to help Amber with hers.

When both of us got down the staircase, Trudy said, "Come on, kids. We're off to New York."

New York? I thought. This just keeps getting weirder and weirder.
