2 silver-reflective sphere/orbs seen in the sky west of I-5 in Lakewood,Wa. area.

I never thought I would be making a UFO report to NUFORC, but I suppose there is a first time for everything.. I was on my way to Seattle from the Lakewood 512 Park and Ride, riding on the #594 Sound Transit this morning. It was a sunny and clear morning at about 9:15 am after we had merged onto the I-5 Northbound somewhere around 84th st exit, or a little past that, but way before the Tacoma Dome, I was looking out the bus window, sitting in the very back- left or driver side-seat; I witnessed up in the sky to the west (about a ¼ mile out), not far from the freeway, what appeared to be-2 silent, silver orb or sphere like objects (3 to 5 ft in diameter?), that were either reflecting the sun or had sun like-light emanating from them (hard to tell)-flying at insanely high rates of speed and what looked-to-me like one was chasing after the other!

At first thought, the most logical explanation I was thinking was,“ Wow, those are some fast moving drones!! ” But then I quickly realised that that was impossible due to the fact that they were travelling way too fast, making dive bombing and zig zagging motions thru the sky and stopping and then darting off at a right angle and then shooting straight back up into the sky and then disappeared! As I witnessed this I pointed and yelled to my friend who was sitting 2 seats forward, directly in front of me, “Nate, look! Look! What the hell are those?! ”

He immediately glanced out his window to his left and scanned the skies but couldn’t see what i was seeing. A few other passengers glanced up from their smartphones and looked at me like I’m crazy and then went back to whatever it was that they were doing. So, I seem to be the only one who witnessed this 10 to 15 second event. It happened so fast that I didn’t even have a chance to try and get video of it with my own smartphone, which I really wished I had been able to do, because nobody is gonna believe this...I hardly believe it myself! I do know that Fort Lewis McChord joint army/air force! base is very close to here. So, is possible it could of been something from there they were testing? If so, I’ve never seen anything move like that and at those speeds in all my life! They literally defied our known laws of physics. If anyone else witnessed what I saw, please report it! I know that even tho my friend didn’t see what I saw, he believes me and knows that I don’t make things up. But, it would be reassuring to know that I didn’t hallucinate the event and am not the only witness, and that perhaps someone else from this area of Washington had seen it too and can corroborate my story. Thank you.
