No wonder I couldn't find it, the name was different than I remembered.
And I don't remember that restriction on previous employment being there...

Forensic
The first time I saw an extraterrestrial anomaly was when I was sitting in my living room, debating with a friend who had come over to visit (ironically, over the existence of UFOs--I was skeptical). A man knocked on the door, and I answered it. It seemed odd for a Jehovah's Witness or whatever to be showing up at this hour, but what was I to judge?
The rest of the evening gets increasingly fuzzy. I invited the stranger in, we had supper, and after some drinks got into a fight. My old friend was knocked out after one blow, but I managed to hit the stranger in the chest with something. Suddenly, my memory clears. I don't think I'm going to forget the next bit.
My friend's head was cracked open. He sure looked dead, and the coroner later agreed. The stranger didn't look human anymore; it seemed more like some kind of...buggy reverse anemone thingy. It was unconscious as well, I must have hit it pretty hard with what turned out to be a dirty frying pan. Naturally, I called 911. Surprisingly, these guys showed up...And you know the rest.

Sorry for the delay.

That was always there.
Also, NSA, CIA, or FBI?

Its Kent. You're the only one who knows him (as far as I know) so you're the only one who will understand when he acts. Plus I didn't like you stealing from Predator. :D You can just make up something short this time if you don't feel like it.

Ah, okay. Actions coming up in a bit.

--------------

"Ah, sorry sir, some guy named Barkley dared me to do it; said you were rather spectacular."
Andy slicks back his hair.
"But no seriously, I did have alien contact. It was, however, much less deadly than my story ... thinking about pitching that to an author or something.
Anyway, it went down like this: 
I was a detective working down in Brooklyn, and I'd been called for a missing persons case, nothing special in Brooklyn at this time. In fact it was a little pathetic how little their tracks were covered; the kidnappers accidentally cut the girl - it was a little girl, just so you know - while they took her, and left a little trail behind them. They weren't very subtle, either - they knocked over trash cans, left doors open behind them, all that. Anyhow, it was quite the shock when I stumbled upon some sort of ... spider like thing, holed up in a warehouse on the edge of town. It was doing something to the girl, but I couldn't see what. I pulled out my PISTOLGUN and unloaded on the thing and called the cops when it stopped thrashing around. Instead, you guys pulled in. I think you took the girl too; hopefully she's okay."

"Hm. You wouldn't happen to know how large this building is, would you? I wonder how close to the perimeter we are."

"If I were to guess... I would say there was a lot of concrete between us and the outside world right about now. Helluva way to go out."

If you want, put the girl through a horrible fate. I think I was going to say the spidalien was mutating her or something, but I dunno.
