CHAPTER ONE: Bright White Lights Return! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tuesday,April 8, 2003- 10:32AM Richard's home- Indianapolis,IN ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- I sat in the chair writing my sci-fi story. I had told the publisher the story. He didn't believe any of it. I tried to tell him that it was the truth of the reason why I was gone. I had mysterious feelings of today's events that are coming in the future. I had psychic powers to explain those feelings. I couldn't name the bad event... something bad would happen today, I knew. Tuesday, April 8, 2003- 4:44PM Tami's and Richard's home- Indianapolis,IN ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Tami!" I called. She came into the room. "Want to go with me and Dan to the new club called so easily "The Club"?" I asked. "Okay. When?" Tami asked. "In about two hours. We have to pick him up. He doesn't have a car yet." I told her. Tuesday, April 8, 2003- 8:21PM Tami's and Richard's car-Indianapolis,IN ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- We had just left the club. It was fun. I drove the car down the deserted road. Dan had said he had some work to do at home. That's why we left early. Suddenly, a bright white light beamed down on us. The car stopped and the radio went off. Everything was silent. I tried to look up to see the source. The light was just too bright! Tuesday, April 8, 2003- 10:43PM Tami's and Richard's car-Indianapolis,IN ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- My eyes opened. I was still in my car. Tami sat in the seat next to me. No one sat in the back. Dan was gone. "What happened?" Tami asked me. "Don't know. Dan's gone though." I answered. The engines restarted all by itself. I looked at my watch and gasped! "Where did we lose two hours?" I said softly. "What?" Tami asked. "We... we lost two hours. Let's go. We're getting outta here." We drove off while Tami had a puzzled look on her face. Early Wednesday, April 9, 2003- 2:27AM Dream ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- The oval faces with black oval eyes surrounded me. They had the faces of extraterrestrials. One of them "spoke" in a language I never heard before! Wednesday, April 9, 2003- 7:31AM Tami's and Richard's house ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- My eyes opened quickly! Sweat rolled down my face. I pulled my arm up to look at my watch. It was a little after 7:30am. I got up from the bed and put on my clothes. After that, I went into the living room. Tami had just turned on a radio. "Tami, I know what happened last night!" I said to her. "I know too. We were taken by a UFO piloted by extraterrestrials. They did thier expieriments on us. They must have kept Dan." said Tami. "Yes." I agreed. "Today's show is about UFOs." said the DJ. "Call in if you want to share your close encounter with us. Call now...555-2768.We'll be back." A song started. "Can I?" I asked. "Sure." Tami said and left the room. "Unmarked helicopters...Hovering..." sang the group on the radio. Wednesday, April 9, 2003- 7:33AM Tami's and Richard's home ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- I held the phone in my hand. The phone on the other side was ringing. "WETL...do you have a UFO encounter story to tell?" said the DJ. "Yes. Ours occured last night at around 8:30. We were coming home from a night out and there were three of us. The car stopped automatically. We saw a bright white light from above. Two hours later, we woke in our car and discovered one of us was gone. The car started up all by itself. We left and went home. Last night, we both had a dream. The extraterrestrials surrounded me on a table. One of them had a scalpal in its six-fingered hand. Suddenly, I woke up. That was about fifteen minutes ago." I told him. "That's some story!" said the DJ and went to the next caller abruptly. The station hung up on me. "It sounded like they didn't believe me." I told Tami. Wednesday, April 9, 2003- 2:33PM Pentagon- near Washington,D.C. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Another few abductees to shut up agian, huh?" said one man. "Yes. We'll have to watch Richard Broadstreet and Tami Routier very closely." said the man sitting at his desk. He started the tape of the radio show. "He told this story on the radio." They listened to the tape for a while. "Let's go. We have no time to waste." The two men walked out the door.
