CHAPTER

9

Aunt Edna

Aunt Edna had much to deal with and, consequently, was inconsolable. The upside was she was talkative, especially as we recounted Andi’s condition, our own encounters with glowing spheres and orbs, what happened to Abby, and the strange almost-encounter with the dolphin. “Oh my, oh my, oh my! It’s the end. We’re being invaded! It’s aliens from outer space!”

To the facts, I thought. “You said your nephew had pets: three cats, two dogs.”

“A yellow lab, a chocolate lab, a white cat, a black cat, a mangy cat . . .”

“Any idea where those pets are?”

“No, and that’s the truth,” she said. “But the yellow lab, Boris . . .” She hesitated.

“You can tell us,” Tank urged.

“Boris got snatched by the UFO, just like your Abby. But he came back alive. His eyes were gone, but he was still alive, like that dolphin! He came home and ran right into my nephew’s room as if he could see where he was going, and after that . . . that’s when my nephew started acting crazy.”

“And Boris?”

“Disappeared. Except . . .”

“Go on.”

She nodded toward her nephew’s room. “Right after Boris came home, the aliens started snooping around the house, shining their blue lights in the windows and scaring us, and then . . . that brown powder. My nephew had it on his shoes; he was tracking it around the house. There was brown powder, but no Boris. And then my nephew got crazy.”

“The, uh, aliens . . .” I approached the topic gingerly. “Do you mean orbs? Spheres of light?”

She nodded, trembling with fear. “They were watching us, watching him, and then, when he wouldn’t come out of his room, they went looking for him. One came right into the house, searching all around with a blue spotlight. It was like we were animals in the zoo, or, or, fish in a fish bowl, or . . .”

“Or specimens being studied,” I said, recalling words the nephew had used.

“Yes! Yes, exactly!” She sobbed, and her whole body shook. “They’re going to take over. We’re all gonna turn to powder!”
