Introduction

The sun was shining on another beautiful day in the state of Indiana, as summer had arrived. With summer comes the freedom of all students from the terror and torture that was school. For many, this was the end of a few months of school, but also the beginning of an adventure for five individuals, an adventure that would change everything.

For in the depths of space, a lone beam of light traveled at incredible speeds towards the planet Earth. In no time at all, it quickly cut through the vacuum of space and into Earth's atmosphere, which did not falter the speed it was going at.

As the beam of light enters the stratosphere and above the state of Indiana, it splits into five individuals beams. Three from the group move in one direction, while the remaining two went in different directions. These lights were on a collision course with five destined humans.

Three human youths walked alongside each other after finishing their last day of the school semester.

"Summer, the time for no school, no homework, no bossy teachers, and no worries. Nothing but sun and fun." Alice Johnson, Eighteen-years-old with dirty blond hair, kept in a ponytail and sapphire blue eyes. She stood at 5'11'' Wearing a white and blue tank-top with a pair of jean shorts and white sneakers. Her chest size BB-cup, but she had a perfect hourglass figure and a small bubble butt. She had finished and graduated high school and ready to rest before college.

"You've got that right. Time for some downtime." Next, Matthew Summers or Matt for short. He was also eighteen and graduated high school with Alice. Matt stood at 6' with raven black hair and brown eyes. He was wearing a plain blue t-shirt, a pair of cargo shorts, and red and black sneakers. Matt has an average body with muscle definition. He also had a pair of pilot's goggles resting on his head, which had a large crack running across the entire right lens. The crack came from a childhood accident. Matt was also smart with an IQ of 150; he was only ten points off of being a genius.

Last was Abby Summer, Matt's younger sister by eight years. She was currently ten. She had brown hair, which she kept in twin pigtails and emerald green eyes. She was wearing a plain white t-shirt, a black skirt, and white sneakers. She stood at 5'4''. She had an average body build for a child with a little pudge around her stomach. But overall, she was cute, which meant her brother was overprotective when it came to boys. She was right now getting ready to enter middle school.

"So what should we do for summer vacation?" Asked Alice waking ahead of the sibling before turning around, walking backward with her hands behind her back.

"Anything sounds good to me," Abby added while she walked alongside her brother while holding his hand.

With his free hand, Matt cupped his chin as he thought about his answer. "Well, I was thinking about visiting a few theme parks." This caused his little sister to squeal with joy, bouncing up and down.

"I'll see if my parents will let us rent a week out in their condo in Hilton Head Island." Said Alice while pulling out her phone to message her parents

"You sure we can afford a week at Hilton Head Island," Matt asked, sounding concerned.

"I know my parents could lend me some money to cover some of the cost. Plus, I know you have the money your parents left you." Alice said after sending her text message

Matt lowered his at the mention of his parent. "That's true."

Two years ago, a terrible car accident took Abby's and Matt's parents' lives. Their parents had the foresight to create a savings account for their children with plenty of money for them, along with making sure both children were in their will. After losing her friend's parents, Alice, a friend of the family, offered to help Matt raise his sister and manage their finances.

She was one of Matt's closest friends. He cherished their friendship and knew that he could never repay her for all she had done for him and his sister, those two years without his parents were made slightly bearable thanks to her. Abby also looked up to Alice like a big sister and talk to her about girl things that her brother would never understand no matter how hard he tried.

"It would be fun to go to the beach, and I know Matt would love to play golf down there," Abby added, knowing her brother's hobbies.

"Plus, I bought a new bikini," Alice said in a teasing tone as she sways her hips while glancing at Matthew.

Matt turned his gaze elsewhere as a noticeable blush appeared on his cheeks. "Well, it would be fun." He spoke in a flustered tone earning a giggle from the two girls.

The trio continued to talk about their summer plans, unaware that three beams of light were heading straight for them high above them.

Elsewhere, an eighteen-year-old African American was waving goodbye to his friends.

"Same time next week, James." A teenager called out as he and a group of his friends were leaving.

"You know it." James Smith. He stood at 6'2'' with short black hair and emerald green eyes. He was wearing a white shirt, sport's shorts, and a pair of red Jordans. He had finished playing a fun round of basketball with his closest friends but enjoyed football more since he was the wide receiver for his high school.

He graduated this year and wanted to start his summer fun early before heading off to training camp to prepare for when he joins the football team at the college he'll be attending.

James also had a large scar running down the side of his right cheek. It came from a fight he had with his father when he was thirteen.

James sighed as he took a long sip from his water bottle as he walked out to his car.

He was happy he could spend time with his football buddies before they all went their separate ways. He stopped at his car and fished around in his pocket for his keys to unlock it. 'Well time to get home and shower.' He thought, unaware of the beam of light heading straight for him

Elsewhere a teenage girl exits her school stretching her arms above her head. "At last. I'm finally free." April North, an eighteen-year-old female. She stood at 5'8'' with short chocolate brown hair and seafoam green eyes. She had DD-cup breasts. She liked to wear dresses. Right now, she was wearing a strapless aquamarine dress and light blue sneakers. She also graduated from high school and was enjoying her summer before college. April is a shy girl and kept to herself but loved to express her feelings through art. She especially liked painting. She wanted to one day have her paintings spotlighted at a large art gallery. "Time to go home and start on that new painting I had been planning." The fifth and last beam of light was making its way toward her.

Soon the lights began to make their way to their distended host.

Abby, Matt, and Alice walked back to Matt's car when the lights made their descent to their targets. James, who was about to enter his car, stopped when he saw a light that suddenly hovered right in front of him.

The light meant for April, who had already sat down in the car, zoomed through the open window of the car before stopping in front of her.

A light hovered in front of Abby, Alice, and Matt.

Each of the lights stopped short of their destined recipient before flashing and dropping a device in front of them. Out of curiosity, the children moved to pick up the small device before and examining them closely.

The device looked similar to a plus sign with a screen in the middle and a light ring that lit up when each of the humans took hold of the device. Matt's was red, Alice had blue, Abby had pink.

At the same time, James and April had also received the same items. James's was gold, while April's came in green.

Each of five humans scrutinized the device, wondering what it could be and where it came from. Before they knew it, the screens of each of them began to glow. A white aura envelopes each of the human's bodies.

"What's happening?" Matt asked, feeling restricted in his movement. Soon he felt as though a sensation was pulling his body up. Looking down, he could see that he was indeed being pulled up towards the sky.

"Matt!" Alice screamed as she tried to break free from the white aura.

"Big brother!" Abby cried out, sounded scared and worried as she looked to her brother for support.

Simultaneously, both James and April experienced the same phenomenon as they too started to float upward into the sky.

Once the five humans had reached a certain altitude, they were immediately and without warning shot straight up at incredible speeds. The highest of the five was Matt, with Alice and Abby not too far behind. James, who looked terrified, looked all around him as the ground beneath him started to move further away from how high he went. April hid her face in her hands as she had wished that this was nothing more but a bad dream.

Five beams of light began to speed through the atmosphere of planet Earth heading towards space. Each occupant was screaming as the light pulled them further away from their plant and their homes and families. Once they had reached a high enough altitude, the beams of light shot across the inky darkness of space as they made their way to their intended destination.

Each occupant was screaming as the light pulled them further away from the ground and their homes. Soon each beam shot like a bullet into space towards its final destination.
