My story (it's short)
 

About 10 or 11 years ago I heard a loud and fast screeching noise, like something plummeting from the sky.

A few weeks later there were all sorts of rumours about finding a crashed alien in the lake an hour north from my city.

Nobody I talk to about this heard the noise.

Interesting. What part of the world do you live in?

I was living in Winnipeg, Canada when this happened.
