Description: This phenomenon appears randomly around the world, and because of this, nobody can seem to track it or glean much information from it. Additionally, everybody in the vicinity at the time this phenomenon occurs simply disappears, according to security cameras. What we do know comes from a lone eyewitness, recovered from the scene. She was passed out, but she survived due to unknown reasons. Unfortunately, she was traumatized by the events that she has witnessed, so we were not able to extract much from her.
Biography: This is her story.
Us: "First, please tell us your name."
Nameless Woman: "Wendy."
Us: "Thank you. Now, what were you doing when the event happened?"
Wendy: "I was working as a bank teller. It was a fairly ordinary Wednesday, nothing out of the ordinary. This was right after my lunch break. There were some people in the building, but not much. Suddenly, we all heard a siren. At first, I thought it was just a fire truck passing by, but it wasn't quite like the usual fire truck siren. This one was louder, and more droning. It reminded me of... you know, those air raid sirens you hear in documentaries of London during the war? Then... hm. I don't..."
Us: "What happened? Please tell us."
Wendy: "... I don't remember. Or... no. Wait, I think I... Yes, I definitely saw something."
Us: "Please attempt to describe it."
Wendy: "...Well... Everybody started disappearing one by one, and I couldn't do anything. Literally, I was frozen in place. When my turn came... Everything went black. N-no... there were these... horrible eyes. Staring at me. They were staring! Staring!" (At this moment, she was thrashing about, and had to be restrained by hospital staff.)
Us: "Please calm down. What happened next?"
Wendy: "No! They saw... everything! They saw my soul! The siren... so loud! SO LOUD GET IT OUT OF MY HEAD STOP LOOKING STOP LOOKING NO NO NO!"
At this moment, she passed out, and was unable to be woken up. It's been 3 months since this happened, and she still hasn't woken up. Her brain activity is consistent with that of normal REM sleep, with occasional sharp spikes in activity now and then. However, nothing we do to her, including electric shock, will wake her up. Further research showed us that she was partially deaf in both ears, which might explain why she was still alive.
