"I don't know much about flying wings," Cleve stated, "but it does sound interesting. In any case, don't leak anything I'm about to tell you, okay?"
While Theo was not watching, Cleve started whispering to Frank. "You know Albert Einstein, right?" Cleve asked, "He has this theory that says that when an object has gravity and a large electromagnetic field, we can get all electromagnetic waves to bend around the object. That means that you can't detect the object with radar, magnetism, or your eyes. So they invited me onto this ship, a destroyer-escourt named the Eldridge, probably because I'm familiar with radio, radar, and magnetic waves. They put all these field coils on the front of the ship, and they were supposed to create the electromagnetic field needed for invisibility. But when we turned on the field coils, a green gas filled my room. I fainted, and when I woke up, I was here."
Cleve looked around to make sure no one was listening. Then, he continued, "I believe that the electromagnetic field might have been too high. If we formed our own electomagnetic bubble, that means that no light reached us. I don't know exactly how it worked, but that elecromagetic bubble might have formed a time-space warp that sent me here."
