    About this ebook

    Based on actual events...maybe...
    It was just a party.
    There were six of them, three guys and three girls enjoying the cool fall evening. Good friends, they had been drawn together in high school like pieces of steel to a magnet. Considered nerds by many in their school, all of them were near the top of their class and seemed destined for big things.
    But something in the sky that night changed their lives forever!
    The Abducted is a prequel to The Adventures of Gabriel Celtic series.

      I walked down the road with a hunched back and a wet cigarette in my mouth—the fire had died a while back. My hands were tucked into the pockets of my jacket, and my hair fell over my face, limiting my sight. But I wasn’t really seeing where I was go

      The Abducted

      It was just a party.

      There were six of us, three guys and three girls, our ‘gang’. We were a pretty tame group as gangs went, didn’t drink or smoke, and all of us were near the top end of our class.

      Nerds, one and all!

      I only mention this to assure you that there is no reason to think that mind altering chemicals were in anyway involved in the story, nor were any of us prone to mental illness.

      We were prone however, to inventive and imaginative thinking, which one could point to excitedly, justification of the unlikelihood that my story was in fact true. But I assure you, we as a group and I in particular, were no more inventive than any other of the multitude of people of our age. Point of fact, we had less incentive than most to create a story such as I bring forth to you today, for you see, we just wanted to be …normal!

      But I digress, it was a party. It was about 9:30 on a cool September night when we moved the party outside, kicking a soccer ball around the yard. Eventually we migrated to the side of the yard where a tall water tower loomed over the landscape.

      Looking up, I noticed a large bright light floating toward us out of the west. Thinking it an airplane and initially giving it little thought, I soon realized that it had stopped moving, and that there was no noise emanating from it at all.

      Motioning to Bill, the closest to me, I pointed out the anomaly. Soon, the whole group was looking up, the ball forgotten. We all seemed mesmerized by the floating orb perched above the water tower, seeming to stare at it for minutes…

      And then, it was gone!

      ***

      There was no zipping off…no noise…just gone.

      Thinking I had missed something, I looked over at my friends, who were lowering their heads and going back to kicking the ball!
