disapparates

Pops out instantly

Disapparates is a third-person singular verb from the Harry Potter universe, meaning to vanish instantly from one location to reappear in another—the wizarding equivalent of teleportation.

The opposite is apparate.

The term has spread beyond the books to describe any sudden, unexplained disappearance: He disapparates whenever the check arrives.
