As Saya was looking at the moon, a light suddenly surrounded her. Before she had time to register that it was even there it had gone. It was suddenly warmer and brighter than a moment ago. I quick glance at her surroundings told her that she was no longer outside. Her first thought was that a car may have bumped her through a door into a building, but for one, she hadn't felt any sort of impact, and for two, this place looked nothing like any building on campus that she knew of. She considered the highly improbable possibility of teleportation but decided to suspend any conjecture until she had more information.

Reassessing her current surroundings, it was a strange, circular room that seemed populated with advanced technology, or what pretended to be advanced technology. In the center was a raised platform ringed with consoles. There stood what looked like a small person with a strange saucer-shaped helmet with blinking lights. At the far end of the platform was a tall glass cylinder with a large face floating inside.

Saya felt a cold feeling in her stomach, but tried her best not to appear afraid. Nothing could have prepared her for this.
