I was standing outside with my mom looking toward the eastern sky. She made a statement about UFOs because she saw a plane nearby. I said how UFOs and taking about them kind of spooked me. I was looking to the sky and saw one light moving. I thought that it was a satellite. It was too bright to be a satellite, though. Then I looked a little bit down from the one light and saw the other two lights moving with the first, forming a triangle. It was moving slowly from nearly due east to east-south-east and a little downwards in the sky. As it moved, the lights began to fade. At no point was I able to see the body of the object. I was very afraid as I had never to that point seen a UFO, and am still very confused as to what I saw. I lost sight of the object once its lights faded away. I didn't do anything other than go get my dad from inside, but the object was gone by the time we got back outside.
