Plot

Aliens come to Earth, beam some humans onto their spaceships, and go down to the surface looking for other people. A group of kids run from the aliens, and meet a former astronaut who was abducted and experimented upon by the aliens years ago. He explains that the aliens have visited Earth several times in the distant past, and have guided the evolution of life on Earth. He's been preparing for their return, and he ambushes some of the aliens. The kids all end up being taken to the spaceship anyway. They're among a few thousand humans who are abducted, then returned to Earth. The government declares that it's going to put the abductees in quarantine when they return, but it ends up trying to kill them. Although the kids survive the government attack, due to superpowers they got from the aliens.
