Court

Tom was stood in the dock ready to be sentenced with murder. He still found it impossible to believe that a court date was found within a week, but hey, every judge in the country wants to bring down a Protector in order to prove their power.

Tom's mind was wandering as he attempted to link a series of seemingly unlinked groups in order to figure out what his next step should be. Briefly in front of him he registered his defense attorney was trying to plead temporary insanity, but he was doing it wrong. Tom instead focused on the small things that would seem like nothing to the guards.

His eyes moved to every entrance into the room in very fast succession, he even slowed down time a bit on everyone but him. Behind the Jury he caught a brief glimpse of a person creeping before he was distracted by the door to the view area opened.



Some random person wandered in which confused Tom because the trial was supposed to be under confidential with only people who knew him being allowed in, but Tom failed to recognize him. He turned back to the judge to see a girl moving in slow motion towards Judge Leah.

Leon was down in autopsy with Ducky, Palmer and Leanne's dead body. "You have to do the autopsy Dr. Mallard," Leon ordered.
      "I promised Tom that I would hold off on the autopsy until he has figured some things out," Ducky replied.
      "Tom is probably about to get life in prison," Leon replied. "He won't be figuring anything out anytime soon."
      "I'll do it once I'm up to date on all of my paperwork then. The autopsy isn't useful to any case as Tom has already handing himself in so it can wait," the Doctor sighed turning his back on his boss.
      "Get it done soon Ducky," Leon threatened.
      "I'll make sure he does director," Palmer decided, glancing at his mentor and then back at his boss.

Family Reunion: Father, Part 1

With only six surviving threats to the Protectors, Felix and Naomi had begun to work overtime. With the overtime finally paying off once they had located their fathers. Naomi had double, triple and quadruple checked the information to ensure that it was right, unable to believe that the two men would willing be locked up in a mental asylum.             “Well…” Naomi stated calmly. “I guess we’re going to a mental asylum.”             “They belong in a mental asylum,” Felix laughed. “But I can’t believe that either of them would stay there willingly.”             “It’s worth a look,” Naomi shrugged as she scanned back over the map that they used to track their parents’ whereabouts. “They go there and then the trail stops. There is nothing that points to them leaving.”             “Let’s go then,” Felix agreed.
