Summary : sleepover. flashing lights. blankets ripped off bed. tall thin figures "spoke" to us. abduction. woke with strange triangular marks on our bodies that vanished within hours. constant feeling of being watched. S.O.S.Me and my friend are 14 years old. We had stayed up late studying for finals. We went to bed at about 12 and stayed up till about 1 afeter talking about school. At about 2 we were both awakened suddenly to a strange silence and bright flashing lights out side the window. We both remember a sence of absolute shock and severe fright, when our covers were suddenly and yet gently drawn from our beds. At the foot of my bed I saw a the silouette of a tall thin figure with large black eyes that had a shiney luster to them, it was as if I could see myself in them,(after this moment I regret to say that the rest is the account of my friend because I cannot remember anything else)......I looked over at Patty and I remember thinking that she was dead because she lie so still. her body began to rise above the bed into the arms of the figure described above. I also was "carried" into the figures arms, but i did not pass out. Before I knew it, we were in a different place that is defficult to describe because i was surrounded by these figures. I was laying on a strange surface that was both hot and cold at the same time. It felt as if there was a sheet over my body put there so that i could not move. The only part of my body that i could move was my eyes. I did not see Patty anywhere, until the beings parted for a split second, and i caught sight of them carrying her body out of the room, i was sure she was dead. i then directed my eyes toward the celing and saw an object slowly and silently descending toward my stomach. It resembled a very large needle, and it was then that i fainted. i awoke in the morning laying beside Patty on the kitchen floor. We vaguely (at first) remembered what had happened. We noticed three strange triangular marks on our bodies--one behind the left ear, one on our stomachs, and one on our lower back. Now Patty and i feel that if we ever separate after this experience together, somthing bad will happen.
