     A man is abducted by extraterrestrial beings.

I.

I should have never gone outside ...

All I did was go hunting.  No problem there.  I had gone hunting lots of times before, with little, if any, incidents, but this time was different.  I felt as if I were being watched.  I had a sudden creepy feeling ice up my spine and it gave me a bad case of the nervous nellies.

I knew that there were reports of spaceships (or other spacecraft) being reported in this general vicinity, but I just laughed it off and paid little attention to it.  Besides, I thought to myself, that was utter nonsense: there was no such things as extraterrestrial beings, let alone, spaceships (unless, of course, you counted the Space Shuttle or some other type of rocket deal) ...

I was with my friends that early morning; we were hunting for deer befor five: it was still dark outside: the sky wasn't even beginning to show any light yet; it was studded with stars, stars as far as you could see.

Suddenly, without warning, there was a whirring sound above me.  A loud, deafening whirring.  I looked up ... only, to my horror, see a spaceship.  It looked about as large as a small city: it seemed half of the sky was blocked by this ... this ... this THING.  I grew terrified and felt my heart jump into hyperdrive.  I don't know where this object came from, but all I kept thinking was, I wish it would go away! I wish it would go AWAY!!  

A bright greenish-yellowy-orange orb of light stabbed my eyes, blinding me.  I suddenly felt myself being lifted up in to the air.  I felt like I was floating.  In reality I was.  I saw the ground getting smaller and smaller as I was lifted up by this beam of light into the bowels of the spaceship.

I was being abducted.   Abducted by aliens.  

My friends started shouting and screaming as they saw me being lifted into the spaceshp, but their cries were abruptly cut off as the floor of the spaceship slammed shut.  I was now at the mercy of the aliens.

At first, I didn't see them, but I could definitely hear them breathing.  They sounded like giant vacuum cleaner canisters, or perhaps, respirators, like I had heard on tv medical shows.  There was no other explanation on how to describe the sound of their breathing.  

It truly terrified me.

They didn't say a word, but one of them directed me to a long, steel table.  He beckoned me to lie down on it.  I did as he directed.  I felt the sensation of my clothes being removed, until I was as naked as a newborn baby, then felt my arms and legs being encased in steel straps, so I couldn't move.  In addition, they put some sort of brace around my head, so I couldn't turn it. I didn't know what was going to happen to me, but I suddenly realized that these aliens wanted something from me.  What I didn't know, but whatever it was, I didn't think it was going to be at all good.

~To be continued.~
