[Some have passed. After talking and learning some things about Rory and the past self of who he keeps mentally calling as the Bow Tie Doctor--and a bit of contemplating--Hei's decided that choosing to look for this Time Lord could possibly be beneficial to finding any Organization members in the process...

Hei's wearing a white, creepy looking mask and speaking in a lower voice than the lighter, more alto voice that belongs to his alias identity. No, he doesn't sound like Li Shengshun at all when there's a grim seriousness to his speech.]

For how long has the Doctor with the bow tie been missing now? Five days? Longer?

I've started a thorough search of Paixao, and in the fields surrounding it. So far there has been no sign of the man...

If we collaborate and assist each other, we might be able to locate him.

I'll do what I can within my capabilities. I have some conditions though...

My true identity must not be known to the public. For everyone's safety, and to prevent unnecessary injuries. My skills and abilities aren't for the faint of heart.

My other condition; I don't trust the security on this network. Specifics will have to be discussed in person.

[Xion doesn't often post to the message board... but this time, she's got a really good reason.

The observant might be able to tell she's in some sort of busy area, from the background noise. The fascination in her voice is more obvious.]

What's all this... white stuff? It's really cold... but kind of nice, too.

[yup, Xion's never seen snow before.]

[Filtered FROM the Master; several days after this]

[Speaking about the filter] I hope I did that right.

Uhm, anyway, I know I still haven't really...spoken to a lot of you [He sounds a little guilty, sorry he's been busy] but I know a lot of you also know the Doctor. [pause, oh, right, there's two of him] Bow Tie Doctor. Listen. Has anyone actually seen him lately? I know the man likes to run off, but I don't think he would have left his TARDIS this long.

Maybe I can look on the other floors...or something. Of course, even if he was on one of the other floors he'd hear this, yeah?

Hello, Paixao. I am Colonel Jade Curtiss. Thanks to the rambling help of a man calling himself the Doctor, I've gotten the general gist of this place. Searching through past messages on this board has yielded me more questions than answers, but I suppose I can't be surprised. I only have one real question at this point, if someone would be kind enough to answer.

Is there anyone out there who knows who I am?

N-No! Stop! {Belle's desperate words soon turn into a terrified cry. There is a thump - almost as if she has fallen - followed by a whimper.}

D-Don't... {Using what little strength she has left, she tries to hit her attacker. Of course, it does no good.} B-Beast!

{Who else can she call for? Who else has the strength to kill these creatures (or at least scare them off)? Belle hasn't seen anything like them before!}

S-Someone... {Her voice is much weaker as the things attempt to drag her away.}

[Did anyone order some ham? Because that's what the Doctor sounds like right now. Exasperated ham]

RORY! Where are you? I've been looking for you for ages. Where've you gone? I told you I'd come and pick you up, but I can't pick you up if you're not here!

[Aaaaand the ham is gone. For now.]

Also, Roxas, don't forget to give me a poke over these things when you're ready, okay?

Timon! I'll have you ready, I'm going to pick you and your friend up. Get your coat - wait, don't get your coat, you're already wearing it. You can't take it off because you're born with it. Forget the coat thing!

We're going to get a fez!

And Rory, don't think I've forgotten you. I'll come and get you soon, just stay out of trouble.

{The sound of flipping pages begins this entry. Belle is hard at work in the library, cataloguing anything of interest. Her notes are extensive and she isn't sure most of it is useful. Yet she doesn't feel right leaving anything out. Epiphanies might come later.

Unfortunately, because of the nature of the library, there is a thin layer of dust on the table. When Belle tries to speak, she sneezes.}

S-Sorry... {She mumbles, freeing a handkerchief from her pocket.} I wanted to ask if anyone else has spent extensive time at the library. I'm sure I would have seen you by now...unless you stopped coming.

The reason why I'm asking has to do with some recent additions I've found. {She shuffles some papers.} Keeping notes on what has happened seems important. If you can write, would you mind adding your own experiences thus far to the library? And if you can't, I don't mind writing for you.

Okay, so this thing is like a PDA then, is it? It's not so bad once you get used to it...but still weird because I don't normally talk to people I don't know. Or post, I suppose I'm posting, aren't I? Sorry, I'm new here and this is all a little much. I'm not usually asked to post things.

Anyway, I'm Rory. I imagine you must get this a lot but I'm looking for someone. Someones, maybe. One would be a woman with gorgeous red hair and answers to the name Amy. She's my wife, by the way, so please don't try anything. Second, a man with a bow tie and goes by...just The Doctor. I know they tend to run off but I don't think they'd ever pitch me out of the TARDIS and then disappear.

So, yeah, if you could give me a start on that I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.
