   It was a quiet and cold night. David was looking out the window as he used to do after dinner. There were two cars parked in front of his house, and three men were silently looking up at something he couldn’t see from the window. Suddenly, the street was covered by a bright light, and the three men ran away. David quickly went outside to see what was happening. When he got out of the house, looking for the source of the light, he saw a huge flying object over his house. The bright lights blinded him for some seconds, and then everything was over. By the time the police arrived, David and the three men had mysteriously disappeared.
