Our organization …”

“Youno longer have an organization. At this moment, all the members are being rounded up. It’s finished, Admiral.”

Overhead, the sky seemed to be vibrating with light and sound. The huge mothership was floating down directly above them, bright green lights flashing from its interior. They stared in awe as they watched it land. A smaller spaceship appeared, and then another, and then two more and another two, until the sky seemed to be filled with them, and there was a great roar in the air that became a glorious music that echoed throughout the mountains. The door of the mothership opened and an alien appeared.

The woman in white turned to Robert. I am leaving now. She moved toward Admiral Whittaker, General Hilliard, and Monte Banks. You shall come with me.

Admiral Whittaker drew back. “No! I won’t go!”

Yes. We will not hurt you. She held out her hand, and for an instant nothing happened. Then, as the others watched, the three men began slowly moving toward the spaceship in a hypnotic daze.

Admiral Whittaker screamed, “No!”

He was still screaming when the three men disappeared inside the spaceship.

The woman in white turned to the others. They will not be harmed. They have much to learn. When they have learned, they will be brought back here.

Susan was holding Robert tightly.

Tell people they must stop killing this planet, Robert. Make them understand.

“I’m only one man.”

There are thousands of you. Every day your numbers grow. One day there will be millions, and you must all speak with one strong voice. Will you do it?

“I’ll try. I’ll try.”

We are leaving now. But we will be watching you. And we will be back.

The woman in white turned and entered the mothership. The lights inside began to glow brighter and brighter, until they seemed to light up the entire sky. Suddenly, without warning, the mother-ship took off, followed by the smaller ships, until finally they all vanished from sight.

Tell the people they must stop killing the planet. Right, Robert thought. I know now what I’m going to do with the rest of my life.

He looked at Susan and smiled.

THE BEGINNING

Author’s Note

In researching this novel, I have read numerous books, and magazine and newspaper articles citing astronauts who had reportedly had extraterrestrial experiences: Colonel Frank Borman on Gemini 7 supposedly took pictures of a UFO that followed his capsule. Neil Armstrong on Apollo 11 saw two unidentified spacecraft when he landed on the moon.
