After what Eve estimated as some 20 seconds, the objects made a type of jerking motion, and in flash, they were gone. This was her chance. She ran for the house, and tried to open the screen door. It was locked. She couldn't believe she was locked out of her own house, and she began banging on the door, shaking the screen door, making all the noise she could. "Where was everybody?" she thought. She called to her Aunt, who eventually came to the back door in her bed clothes. She asked Eve, "Who are you?" Eve said, "It's me." Her Aunt asked her what she was doing out so late. Eve told her that her cousins had just came in a few minutes before. Her Aunt's reply shocked her, "Everyone has been in bed for a while." In Eve's mind, she had only been outside about five minutes after her cousins had ran into the house.

She wondered, "What had happened?" Her Aunt explained that she remembered Eve was in the house when she locked the doors. Eve went to her and her cousin's bedroom, and woke her cousin to ask her what had happened.
