Cara had heard the stories about the kooks that thought little gray men were abducting them and performing breeding experiments. Who would've thought it was true? Or that she'd actually be relieved to see the cavalry arrive when the cavalry was actually another group of aliens almost as scary as the first? Or maybe more scary? On the other hand, the Furians--Dagon, Gilen, and Joar--were fine looking specimens when they shifted from beast to man form.
