Bad Guys Suck

I had no idea who these guys were who kidnapped me, and I also had no clue why. If they were trying to get our ship they sure did a poor job of it. And speaking of the ship, I was really, really worried about where Darla would go and what she would do now. We had enough food onboard the ship for about a week for one person so I hoped she would go hang out on the moon to regroup but what then?

These guys who kidnapped me didn't seem too organized. As we sped down the road away from the farm they began arguing with each other as to what they should do next. They also weren't very security conscious, they addressed each other by name as they argued. I quickly learned their names, Belcher, Archer, and Simpson. I was pretty sure Simpson was the driver with Belcher in the front passenger seat and Archer in the back seat with me.

Even though I was blindfolded I could tell we were going south on the road away from the farm. They just drove in a straight line rather than mix in a turn here and there to confuse me. I was getting the impression these guys were real amateurs and I doubted they had ever done this sort of thing before.

“So,” I asked, “might I inquire as to who you guys are?” I doubted they would answer but it was worth a shot. They argued about whether they should tell me and it seemed they weren't going to but Archer then made the decision for himself.

Just my luck to be kidnapped by a bunch of wackos. “Aliens?” I replied. “I have absolutely no idea where you would come up with something like that.” And really, how do these people come up with these sorts of ideas anyway? Aliens? Come on now.

“We've been watching you, the FAA, the NSA and NASA,” replied Archer. “We know...” And then the car hit, or rather, was hit by, another vehicle that caused our car to slide sideways into the ditch on the right side of the road. The other car hit us from the left so I was relatively well protected from the impact but I think Simpson and Archer were unconscious. Belcher seemed unhurt but was trapped in the vehicle like I was. Before we could really do anything to free ourselves though I heard two men approach the car. One of them announced that they were with the FBI and to remain still. No problem there I thought, seeing as I wasn't going anywhere on my own anyway.

Belcher yelled some obscenity at them right before I heard a thud, after which he fell silent. One of
