Chapter 1 – Strange place and people
2000
Jen was still at the docks after she had told Dawson to go and talk with his mother about their fit on asking Mitch Leery for help with the restaurant. She noticed a light and looked up "what the-" she started but suddenly she was around a large crowd of people near a lake by the mountains.

"Ok, what the hell is going on?" she demanded from a guy about her age standing near her.
"You tell me, one minute I'm with my cousin drinking beer by the beach next I'm here with all you strangers." The guy answered her.
Jen at him for a moment, "well no time like the present to go find out." She then said starting to walk out through the group of people to get some answers.
"Hey wait up" the guy said as he hurried to catch up with her.
"Jen?" a familiar voice called and she stopped turning around to look at where it came from. "Joey?" she asks as she sees her and "Pacey?" walk up to them.
"Hey Jen, you don't happen to know what is going on, do you?" Pacey asks her.
"I have no idea, you think Jack and the others are here as well?" she asks him.
"We haven't seen anyone else we know…speaking of who is your new friend here?" Pacey asks her.
Jen turned to the cute guy that had followed her and realized she didn't even know his name.
"Shawn Farrel" the guy said extending his hand to Pacey.
Pacey took his hand a bit cautiously, he had no idea what was going on and everybody he didn't know he did not trust. "Pacey Witter, this is Joey Potter and you've met Jen Lindley." He said to the guy.
"Guys, there is a news crew there, you think we should ask them if they know what is going on?" Joey suggested.
"Beats sitting here, doing nothing." Shawn said before they made their way over to them but they were stopped by a woman. "Diana Skouris NTAC, stop right there." The woman said holding a gun pointed at them.
"Geez women, what the hell? We just want to know what the hell is going on? Is this some kind of government secret weapon or something. Teleporting random people from places to this…wherever this is?" Pacey said to her.
"Stop talking and get back to the others. We have to investigate this but one thing I can tell you the US government did not order a ball of light filled with all of you. For all we know you could be caring some kind of disease." The NTAC agent told them.
"I feel fine, I have to get home, grams is probably worried sick about me." Jen said to her.
"You are not going anywhere." The woman said.
"You can't do this, we have rights." Joey said to her.
"We have to investigate this." The woman persisted.
"Well you go and investigate it all you want to, me and my friends are going back home. We don't know what happened one minute we're in Capeside…well except Shawn here but anyways the next thing we know is that we are here." Jen told the woman.
"Whoever took you may have done something to you. We need to give you all full medical tests." Diana Skouris persisted.
Trucks started to pull up and agents and soldiers started ushering people into them, including the three Capeside members and the Seatle resident.
"This is just great" Joey mumbled as the truck drove off. Unconsciously she reached for Pacey's hand needing him to be with her during this weird thing that had happened.
