The world ended on an ordinary afternoon.

One moment Aaron was just a teenager with a backpack and a restless mind. The next, the streets were silent and something was very, very wrong.

He isn’t alone. There’s Charlie, who jokes when he should run. There’s Willow, sharper than anyone gives her credit for. And there’s Max — a German Shepherd puppy who follows Aaron into danger he can’t begin to understand.

Together they’ll cross a world that shouldn’t exist and outrun things that shouldn’t move — and learn that survival isn’t about being the strongest. It’s about who you refuse to leave behind.

But the deeper they go, the more Aaron suspects this nightmare isn’t what it seems. And the truth waiting at the end will change everything.

Dawn of Nightmares is the explosive chapter in the TNT: Teens & Tales series — a fast-paced adventure about courage, friendship, and the moment you stop running and start fighting back.

Teams are challenged to research a specific real-world problem and design, build, and program an autonomous LEGO® robot to conquer complex mission tasks on a

competitive playing field.

Arvin’s journey in the league is highlighted by an incredibly impressive debut in the 2025 FLL tournament. Defying the odds as an underdog duo, Arvin and his sole teammate went up against much larger, fully-staffed teams and walked away with the highly selective Best Newcomer Award. Building on that momentum, he returned for the
