Satellite that very clearly wasn't a satellite, strange blue light transfer from a star to this light in the sky

I was working my pizza delivery gig sitting out back waiting for a delivery, looking up at the sky. All of a sudden I saw a small, distant light that looked and moved just like a satellite, traveling North Westernly over Minneapolis. Nothing strange there.

Suddenly there was a flash of light around the satellite-thing and it stopped moving right where the flash happened. It stopped very near to a bright star - or maybe a planet - in the sky. If I held my hand out at arm's length the distance was probably the width of my thumb from the star/planet to the satellite that just... uh... parked.

A strange pale blue ambient light appeared around the star, then flickered and moved toward the satellite. This is by far the strangest part of this experience. It almost looked like light warped by gravity around a black hole or something, like a teardrop shape, and the tip of that shape was going toward the satellite/UFO, almost like it was sucking energy out of the star.

After probably 10 seconds there was another flash of light around the craft/satellite light, and it began moving again from right where it was, and continued it's trek in the same direction. I quickly lost sight of it, but think it may have changed directions. I was just so floored by two aspects: - the weird sucking light and flashes - the fact that it stopped and then started moving again from the same position in the sky.
