Abduction!

You've probably heard about a sim here in Prosperity being abducted, haven't you? Well, that was my son, and I'm here to tell you the true story, not some rumor.

I'm Kevin O'Neill. I have four kids, all adults now, and a gorgeous wife named Melissa. The whole thing went down not long after my two youngest, Maeve and Connor, came home from college. My daughter wanted to focus on her career for a while before marrying her fiancé Henry - she knows the importance of working hard and making money, that one. She takes after her old man in that way. Fortunately she's much prettier than me. Here, I have a picture of her.


Now, the boyo, he'd fallen in love in college, too, but there was some trouble between him and the girl. See, she's not too particular about which side of the law she's on. Me, I don't see the big deal - I may have been a cop at one time, when I was younger, but I left that job when better opportunities beckoned. But Connor, now, he was never happier than the day they named him Captain Hero.


Well, we went about our lives as people do. I became Chief of Staff! At the time, that seemed like the biggest thing that would ever happen to me. Well, then I decided I'd like to try my hand at cooking for a living. Maeve made a name for herself in business, like she'd always dreamed of. Melissa made the Hall of Fame! And we had ourselves a grand anniversary party, the missus and I. We're getting up there in years, you know. But all those things happened before The Abduction.


I didn't see it myself, you understand. Melissa and I were upstairs... well, never you mind what we were doing. But Maeve saw it all through the window. She says there was this sudden bright light out of nowhere, aimed at Connor where he stood stargazing. And then it started to pull him up into the sky!


He tried to cling to the telescope, but whatever that force was, it was too strong for him. The next thing we knew, he was just gone. We were horrified, wondering what had happened, where he was, and if he'd ever come back to us.


He did come back, hours later. A big flying saucer came to hover outside our house, and it just spit him out onto the street. Flat on his face! He wouldn't talk about what had happened, except to mutter about aliens and cry a bit. But then he dusted himself off and went to work. There was some big crisis that day, some thing about a giant robot on the loose, but my boy handled it so beautifully that they gave him a big reward - 50 000 simoleons! No aliens are gonna make my kid crack, I tell you.


Well, he did quit his job after that. But minutes after quitting, he was calling up that girl of his, and she came over for a visit. I don't know what was said between them, but when he came back inside after several hours, he told us there was going to be a wedding soon. Guess he got his priorities straightened out.


Looks like it's none too soon, too. Somehow, those aliens got him pregnant!
