[QUOTE="Eccles, post: 5802009, member: 5675"] The farm was a series of low white painted buildings next to the road. A long garden sloped up away from the driveway to the left of the house, and a woman in her mid-fifties leaned on her hoe as the van pulled up and the three operatives decamped. “Excuse me,” smiled Morag up at the woman. “We’re looking for Jane Frobisher?” “That’s me,” the woman smiled back. “How can I help you?” It took a little while to explain to the woman that they were there to talk about her experiences of a few nights earlier. “It was over there in the copse that I saw it. I heard a noise, and then there was a massive bright light – God’s own fire, I’d have said. It shot down from just above those trees towards the ground. The sound of it! Made my ears fair quiver, I can tell you.” The woman sat on a bench, kicking the mud from her wellington boots whilst stroking the head of a labrador which sat near her. “Then the pressure in my ears seemed to spread over my face somehow; some kind of power the aliens had to simply switch my mind off. I don’t know whether I collapsed, but when I came to my eyes were stinging and blurry. I could barely see as my glasses had fallen off, but I could see the little grey men in their silver room; all lights and metal edges everywhere. “Aliens were gabbling; I didn’t understand a word of it, and they had me laid out and trussed on a table. One of the creatures reached out with his long boneless fingers, and just touched me.” She nervously indicated a brushing of her breast with the back of her hand. “Another of the aliens; little short things they were with big foreheads and massive black eyes, didn’t like that so much. He clouted the first one and jabbered away in alien at him, and he stopped. Then they turned on some kind of machine. I heard it whining, like nothing I’d every heard before. They used it to mark me; I don’t know why.” Pulling up a tweed covered sleeve, Mrs Frobisher showed them a series of round marks up near her shoulder, and three needle marks could also clearly be seen lower on her arm. “Really, my dears, that’s all I remember. They must have used their powers on me again, as it all went black again, and I was back lying by the back door of the farmhouse.” [/QUOTE]
