Leila's Night Adventure

Leila was a cheerful girl with glowing blonde hair. "I want to be a hero tonight!" she declared as she looked out the window at the twinkling stars. The moon beamed down on her, making her feel brave. She wore her special cape made from a beach towel. "Time to save Moa!" she whispered with excitement.

When night fell, Leila tiptoed outside. The sound of waves crashing filled the air. She scanned the beach for the mischievous menehune. "Where are you, little tricksters?" she called softly. Suddenly, she heard giggles from behind a palm tree. Her heart raced as she moved closer.
