Charlie was startled by a bang in the living room. He swung open his bedroom door and ran downstairs. Two weeks passed, it happened again. The funny thing was when his parents leave this 12 year old boy alone it always happened. He slowly walked upstairs, but hesitated for a moment. Maybe if he stayed down there he would solve the mystery.

But then he remembered he had to get his baby brother, Brian. He started looking for him he walked past the living room.........   He saw a lump under the rug! Slowly he walked closer his hand started trembling he put his hand on the bump and lifted up the rug and.... Brian's toy truck! He solved the mystery! But who was doing it? Brian's favorite hiding spot was behind the couch. He looked behind the couch and there he was! HA! HA! You did all this? said Charlie. What do you think, we are the only ones in the house? said Brian. "I'm going to kill you!!" said Charlie.
