"Mangolio goes up to bat for the Detroit Tigers here at Comerica Park, but Troy for the White Sox is ready to strike him out," the announcer said into the microphone. His voice boomed throughout the stadium so loud that even the old lady who forgot her hearing aid could hear what he was saying, "here comes the pitch. He swings and he hits. It's a far one. Up, up and…" he never finished his sentence. He simply vanished into thin air, along with Mangolio, Troy, the old lady who forgot her hearing aid, and every other adult in the park.

The private jet that had been carrying Bill Gates began to plummet towards the ground at an almost ninety degree angle.
