The mystery begins with the disappearance of a Virginian Town of Frankville, the US Army base of Fort David and the United States Air Force base of Fort Ripper. The disappearance of these three locations in the United States of America has remained a mystery world-wide, no one knows how this strange phenomenon happened to Frankville, Fort David and Fort Ripper on August 10th of the year 2015, three years after the world was suppose to end which was a hoax as it joined with the other false doomsday predictions.

One the morning of September 13th at 1:23 am, nearby towns have witnessed what appears to be a green beam light shooting up in the nighttime sky during a thunderstorm before two more shooting back down to the ground, then witnesses of a nearby town of Fort Ripper, Idaho also witnessed the same green beam shooting down where Fort Ripper used to be. The American court debated it for days; scientists claimed it was some kind of energy field that somehow transported from outer space of unknown origins while others claimed it was an Act of God. Many theories sprouted up around the world like flowers in springtime such as a small black hole, passing through the Earth, another theory claimed a fragmented superstring has struck the planet a glancing blow. It became popular for a short time until the underlying mathematics were rejected in the light of later discoveries. But no matter what theories people claimed, it was never proven. The United States Army denied any knowledge about the incident of Fort David except it was part of where they tested new experiments for the future of America.

A group of Biologists pondered the mystery as they investigated on what was left of where Frankville, Fort David and Fort Ripper now known as the 'three craters'. This has stumbled many of the biologists. A week later a similar sighting happened over an British Army base of Fort Brooks near Manchester, England which also disappeared. The United Nations has been stumped over this for days and neither of the scientists or leaders have any idea what has happened to these locations.

In reality, the Frankville/David/Ripper disasters were the result of what humans of the day would have called this phenomenon human fault. Caused by the military experiment gone haywire during the thunderstorm, the armed personal of Fort David, Fort Ripper, Fort Brooks and the citizens of Frankville will experience the aftermath maybe change the course of the human race into a new discovery... This is where the story picks up of the aftermath of their displacement…

Fort David was one of America's largest military bases in the state of Virginia, it holds 100'000 soldiers and equipment ranging from tanks to attack helicopters to training courses including the new training simulator that gives new soldiers the edge of being in the battlefield. It also houses an laboratory underneath the base, it is one of the bases used to create an alternate fuel for automobiles, trains, planes and other kinds of transportation in late 2012 therefore averting the energy crises and eliminated Mankind's independence on Oil. The new discovery originated in the United States of America after almost forty years ever since the Oil Peak in 1973, scientists worked very hard to find ways of alternate fuel in order to avert Economic disaster and War for oil and after for so long they've discovered the key, Garbage such as rotten food, wrappings, skins of fruits and other forms of trash by converting them into an high velocity energy fluid capable of increasing the horsepower in the Internal Combustion Engine of an automobile it can also produce the exhaust that it produces giving it clean and fresh air that's safe for the environment, and it also increases the gas mileage making them last longer before the driver decides to refuel their car….it is called..'Green Gas', mainly due to its natural color that gives.

Then the 'Green Gas' discovery traveled almost all over the globe, nations of Canada, Mexico, the European Union, Australia, Russia, China, Japan and Southeast Asia accepted this as their new energy source. Only the Third World countries refused to accept 'Green Gas' as their new energy source, nations like Cuba, Haiti, Iraq, Iran, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and North Korea believe it violates the natural order. Eventually nations of the Middle East begin to fight each other as the oil fields of Iran burned out of control due to an explosion, deeply affecting Third World's supply following by relations between the US and Iran to dissolve completely, afterwards nations of South America, Latin America and Africa are slowly transforming into Second-World countries therefore ending starvation, dehydration and diseases, the Middle East however suffered from constant wars and slavery. Only Israel remained solid from the Chaos after being backed up by the United States and the European Union. For two and a half years, every automobile, every train (save for steam and electric), plane and boat is equipped with Green Gas powered engines and boosted the World's economy an all time high.

Fort David is located five miles north east of a big town named Frankville; the town is famous for its large businesses including working mines and two car factories, festivities such as The Fourth of July, Halloween and Christmas, and hunting seasons mainly deer and turkey seasons, it's also known as one of the nation's major tourist attractions ranging from American history to transportation museums. Frankville was built in the 1790's, ten years after the American Revolution ended it started a small town with hopes for a future and it grew in the early 1800's and business begins to blossom, after the American Civil War ended, Fort David was built in order to keep peace with the south while Reconstruction took place. Like the base, Frankville started out small and expanded. The town also survived during the Great Depression after the stock market crash in 1929 and helped supplied troops during World War Two. Frankville is located north of the Potomac River which they took their water supply from, Frankville depends on septic tanks since no sewer systems is built underneath until around August 6th, 2014 and all of the sewer pipes lead to the sewer treatment plant. The town's population reached almost 2000 residents and several of them are friendly to each other.

Ripper Air Force Base, one of the largest United States Air Force bases, it's known for having the largest airstrips and plane storage warehouses underneath the base from bombers to fighter jets. It also owns a valley where pilots can practice their flying skills and stunts either to improve their skills or just to show off. It also houses several prototype fighter jets that'll help change the course of Air Combat such as fighter jets with phased plasma cannons and smart missiles to bomber with radar jamming equipment and camouflage paintjobs. It's located in Northwestern Idaho from the canyons they own and use. These three locations are the main attractions for both civilians and military personal of the United States of America as well as their disappearance…

September 13th, 2015. Fort David, Virginia: 1:23 am….

The storm began the brew up in the north part of the base about half a mile away, thunder rumbled the sky. The man in a Military Officer's uniform became aware of the oncoming storm as he heard it on the weather report from his staff. His hair had a mix of black and grey in it, his name is James Anderson and he's the commander of the military post, promoted in early 2013 and placed in charge of Fort David he became one of America's best military leaders in the army. He was born on May 13th, 1958 in Tallahassee, Tennessee; he was the son of Henry and Mary Anderson, Henry Anderson is a Colonel of the Fort Dix and veteran of World War 2 and the Korean War. Mary Anderson is a school teacher of Tallahassee High. James Anderson graduated in 1976 and joined the army in 1980 two years after he graduated from college and became sergeant of the 203rd Battalion of the United States Army a year later. He was transferred to Fort David in 1992 and became Captain two years later. In the Millennium, Anderson was transferred in Baghdad Iraq two years after the 9/11 attack and after eight years the War on Terror ended in US Victory and he was promoted Major of Fort David in late 2011. And during the Second Korean War in early 2013 to late 2014 he was promoted to Lt. Colonel and led the 92nd Battalion to liberate Seoul from North Korean Occupation. After the war ended on October 24th, 2014; he was promoted to Colonel on October 29th.

Colonel Anderson sat in his office listening to the thunder rumbling as the storm begins to gloom over Fort David, the walls are decorated with army applications, firearms from the flintlock pistols, muskets to WWII weapons. His desk is covered with his paperwork, the name plate at the front of his desk and a portrait of his family. He is the father of three children, two boys and a girl and three more picture frames of his children all grown up and married. It was a happy life for him. He then got off of his chair and headed out the door, it was his time to call it a night.

"I'll be heading off to bed." He said to one of his secretaries and she nodded affirmatively as he leaves the office and to bed. The storm begins to roll over the base.

In the laboratory underneath the base, a medium antenna tower is being placed on a platform that rises to the surface, the tower had a. The scientist wearing a weather watcher coat is checking the tower for final preparations; he has a dark grey colored hair that reaches down to the back of his neck. He is known as Doctor Jacob Kennedy or Doc by the military personal. Doc Kennedy is planning on using the lightning bolt as part of his experiment to produce a 1.21 Gigawatt to power the tower in order to find a way to protect electrical lines and power stations from lighting storms.

"Photonic Generator, check. Fission Battery, Check..." Doc Kennedy says to himself as he marks the checkbook of preparations.

"I think we should abort this project doc. The storm's getting bad" One of the scientist assistant said.

"We cannot!" Doc Kennedy said. "We spent too long on this project and this is a perfect opportunity to test it out!" Then he writes in his clipboard. "There! Everything is set. Now let's bring it up!"

The assistant activates the platform's elevator and the platform rises up slowly to the surface. The storm is becoming fierce now as the cloud rolls over the base, lighting clashes out of the cloud and thunder is louder now.

"The Storm is getting worse!" The assistant said.

"What!?" Doc Kennedy shouted

"I Said IT'S GETTING WORSE!" he shouted.

"IT'S PERFECT!"

"PERFECT!? IT'S GETTING VERY DANGEROUS OUT HERE!"

"WE CANNOT ABORT THIS EXPERIMENT AT THIS TIME!" Then the platform reaches to the top and stops. The thunderstorm is booming like cannon fire. Doc Kennedy activated the tower and the tower lit up a bright green light from the bottom and all the way to the small ball on top. The wind blew hard as more lighting flashes and more thunder boomed in all directions.

"COME ON! COME ON!" Doc shouted as the lighting seems to get closer, and then he turns the tower on full power.

"COME ON!" he shouted. "I DIDN'T SPEND TWO MONTHS OF PREPARATIONS JUST TO HAVE YOU MISS!" then just as he said it, the lightning bolt hits the antenna tower. The tower didn't explode from the lightning strike, the doc jumped with joy of his success.

"YES! IT WORKS!" He shouted with joy. "NOW WE'VE DISCOVERED THE WAY TO PROTECT POWER STATIONS FROM STORMS!" Then thing took a huge turn when the lightning bolt hits it again...then again...and again…Then another lightning bolt hits the tower for a third time and it seems to remain connected to the tower's ball and the tower being to glow green and then the lightning bolt turned green. Doc's expression of joy turned to terror as the tower glows.

"SHUT IT DOWN!" Doc shouted as his assistant attempts to shut the tower down but the controls burst with electric sparks.

"I CAN'T!" The assistant shouted as he jumps back to avoid the sparks. "THE CONTROLS ARE FRIED!"

Then the tower shoots a blinding flash of green light, the blast knocked both doc and his assistant onto the ground as the light shoots up into the sky. Doc and his assistant got back up on their feet and stared at the sky.

"W…What just happened?" The assistant asked.

"I….I don't know." Doc said. "My calculations didn't predict this, something's terribly wrong here…"

Then the green flash shoots back down and hits the ground near them. Then it turns into a small orb. The orb thundered as it begins to grow and surround the entire base, engulfing bunkers, offices and warehouses, and then expanded outside the base and into the ground underneath. The orb expanded into three miles around the base. The light was so bright it could be seen for miles from all directions..Heck, it could be seen from outer space, then the orb disappears. The land around Fort David and the base itself has vanished under the orb of light, leaving a huge crater. The orb has caused the base to disappear…

The green light shoots up into the sky, leaving an orb behind to engulf the entire base. The light reaches earth's atmosphere and hits one of the satellites. The dish on the satellite collects the light and it stays there for thirty seconds or so, then the light split up in four streams of light. One went straight back down to Fort David, then the second one shot towards Frankville, Virginia which is located five miles North West of Fort David, the third one went towards the North Eastern part of the State of Idaho, the fourth and last shot in a different direction, heading east of the atmosphere, bouncing off of three satellites before heading towards an location of Southern Russia.

Frankville, Virginia, same time….

The town of Frankville is quiet before, around, and after midnight, but sometimes it's busy with festivities the townspeople have set up every holiday. But not tonight, tonight the streets are almost deserted; patrol cars of the Frankville Police Department roam the streets. One of the patrol cars, No. 38 is making its way around the town square, two policemen are sitting in the car, one who is driving is Jack Carlson, he's the sergeant of the Police Department for two years. The other was Nick Henderson; he was a rookie and joined the police force two months ago after he graduated from police academy and wanted to see some action, but hardly seen any crime activity in Frankville.

"So…Everything's calm out here. Right Sarge?" Nick asked.

"Always calm rookie." Carlson replied.. "…Always.."

"Right…" Nick replied...He clearly remembers how calm it has been lately. But that doesn't mean it gets criminals every once in a while and the FPD quickly rounds them up and throw them in jail to be testified by the Frankville Courthouse. Nick looked out the sky and sees lighting flashes from the clouds just a few miles away, then very much later a soft thunder rumbled.

"Carlson to HQ, Carlson to HQ. Everything's clear, no signs of trouble..."

Carlson said into the CB Radio followed by an affirmative response from the operator and they continued down the street 'til they got to the park. It was a beautiful view of the park; the streetlights glowed throughout the park, giving off an very calm perspective view. Even if the park is deserted doesn't mean a lone man takes a stroll every once in a while. I mean it's a perfect night to be outdoors when no one's outside…

Then suddenly Carlson spotted something in the sky a few miles away.

"What is it Sarge?" Nick asked, noticing Carlson's face expression.

"I'm not sure…" Carlson replied gesturing Nick to look in the direction he was looking and Nick saw what appears to be a green light shooting up into the sky.

"What in the hell's that?" Nick asked.

"That's the same question I'm thinking right now." Carlson said.

"I've never seen anything like that."

"Me too Rookie, I've been on the police force for two years and never saw anything like that.."

After a few seconds, the green light disappeared. It was so bizarre for Sergeant Carlson; he shrugs and then begins to drive around the park. Then after thirty seconds the green light shoots down from the sky and hits the ground right in front of the oncoming police car. The green flash caught the two policemen off guard and their car screeched to a screeching halt.

"What the hell!" Nick shouted. Then it formed into a small green orb which glowed for two seconds before beginning to grow. Carlson puts the car in reverse and slams on the gas pedal and starts driving in reverse. But no matter how fast or how far they got the orb continues to grow, engulfing the park, shops and many buildings of business 'til it engulfs the fleeing police car as they disappeared into the blinding green orb. The thundering orb continues to expand to great length as it engulfs the Courthouse, police and fire departments and small hospital and museums of all kinds. The orb spreads a five-mile radius around the town engulfing the land that surrounds it and finally the orb disappears, leaving behind a huge crater that Frankville once stood.

Fort Ripper, Idaho; 11:23 pm.

The base is semi busy with military planes taking off and landing, but this night the planes are landing and parking into the warehouses to unload its cargo of supplies for the base.

In the office of the base's leader, and man in his late fifties sits in his chair is General John Campbell. Born in December 3rd, 1956 He joined the United States Air Force after graduation from high school in 1974 and became a staff sergeant in 1976 and later on worked up his ranks in Fort Ripper during The Gulf War, the War on Terror and the Second Korean War. After the war ended on October 24th, 2014, he was promoted to General and runs the entire base, it was a big responsibility but it turned out nice at the end. General Campbell gets up from chair and looks out the window of his office seeing the air strip. He had forgotten how beautiful the nighttime sky was after being in the air force for forty-one years.

"One of the cargo planes have arrived General." One of the secretaries said through his PA system. General Campbell pushes the button to transmit.

"That's very good, and have the teams check the cargo for any possible damages." General Campbell said as he releases the button and slumped back down on his chair.

Check for possible damages he thought? He has been on the Air Force foe a little over forty years and since he became general of the air base there wasn't any damage report on the cargo the planes carry into the base. He sighs and turns his chair around to face the window again.

He looks up into the nighttime sky while taking a sip of Jack Daniels whiskey, as he does he noticed a strange green sparkle in the sky. This has got his attention as he gets out of his chair to get a closer look. He have never seen anything like that before but heard stories about the northern light but that light couldn't reach all the way from the North Pole and it wouldn't be just a sparkle either.

"What the Hell?" He thought to himself. Then the green beam struck in the middle of the runway, the sudden flash of light was blinding. General Campbell stumbled back, almost tripping over the chair and knocking most of his stuff off his desk, but he managed to regain his balance in time not to mention his sight from the sudden flash of light and takes another glance out his window. From his office he sees the small orb glowing in the middle of the runway, and then he sees three to four jeeps driving on the runway and surrounded the green orb. General Campbell reaches to his phone and picks up the receiver and presses the digital dials and just as he about to speak the orb begins to grow big and engulfed the four jeeps, it continues to expand all over the runway. General Campbell drops the receiver as he witnesses the orb growing to great lengths.

"By God…" He murmured to himself moments before the blinding light forces him to shield his eyes. The orb engulfs his office along with General Campbell. The orb continues to grow to great lengths and eventually swallows the entire base and the land surrounding it, then the green large orb vanishes along with the base and land. Fort Ripper has vanished.

These three locations disappeared under the mysterious circumstances caused by the military experiment gone wrong and caused a green beam of light to shoot out of the antenna tower and hit the satellite up in orbit which created four beams and shot back down to earth in different locations. Now with the rest of the world puzzled by this, citizens of Frankville and armed personal of Fort David and Fort Ripper will experienced the aftermath….
