CASE REPORT SUMMARY:
Atlantic Flight 591 crashed in Vermont when a mid-flight disturbance created an electrical and hydraulic systems failure. There were no survivors, and the NTSB determined that the crash was connected to a concurrent ground event where every vehicle within two miles inexplicably lost power. The electromagnetic force in the area increased dramatically and left a residual magnetic force on all metal objects in the vicinity. Agent Dunham and consultants Dr. Walter and Peter Bishop drove through Westfield, Vermont, where they became trapped by the same force. They encountered wounded resident Cliff Hayes, who explained the extreme circumstances started three nights prior, when his sister shot her husband in the head, saying she had never seen him before in her life. She, along with almost all of the residents, became delusional and paranoid, and some became violent. Eleven survivors retreated to the high school, where Agent Dunham and the Bishops took Cliff Hayes and determined from a blood sample that the townspeople's chromosomes were doubled. Dr. Bishop theorized that Westfield was merging with the alter universe Westfield in a destructive overlap. The fundamental forces of physics were colliding and destroying everything. The Bishops calculated the place where the opposite forces met and canceled out—the eye of the storm—and guided the survivors there to wait inside a bike shop. They all survived, but only an acre of the town remained intact. Investigators found several amphilicite-powered devices, which linked the event back to David Robert Jones.
