In the ditch was the figure I had seen. I wasn''t sure if it was man or a woman. The narrow beam of my flashlight hardly illuminated the figure in the snow. I changed the beam of my flashlight from narrow to wide, which now lit up the figure. This...being, this...creature, revealed by my flashlight, was more than six feet tall and had very light-colored skin, almost pink. He wore no jacket, hat, or gloves, only a shiny dark-blue skintight jumpsuit. A strange yellowish liquid was flowing from several cuts on his right arm, neck, and head. Man, I thought to myself, what is this thing?
