"Supposedly UFO footage from Groversville from 'A Fan'. But for all I know it's a video Cease and Desist declaration from Anna." He shakes his hand. "I knew I shouldn't have sent her Swan Lake posters packed inside her borscht..." He goes into the back room and pops the tape into the VCR...

The letter reads:

ooc: Is there anything we are already supposed to be doing when we go back to work, or can we request to be assigned down there with a reasonable expectation of it happening? Also has that kevlar vest Solomon looked into ordering since being shot and gutted a couple months ago come in yet?

"Oh you've gotta be kidding me." says Andrews, "How the hell are we supposed to explain this to Mason? Well, let's see that the Tennessee office has to say." Andrews calls information and gets the number for the Knoxville office. "Hey Brown," he says with his phone tucked under his chin, "do me a favor and check our voicemail at the office. I have a feeling....Hello, James Derringer please."
(OOC- I'll wait til Maerdwyn's questions are answered til I continue.)

Rook pops in the tape and hits play. After a few seconds of static, a night scene overlooking a wooded valley is shown. There is a campfire with several teenagers having a party/cook out. The time log at the lower left says 9-14-05 11:32. Off camera you here someone say. "Hey there's one!" and the view swings around and focuses on a view of the night sky above the valley. A blue and green light moves slowly across the sky and Rook gives a huff. "Nothing but a airplane." he thinks. Suddenly the light stops and hovers in place for a couple of seconds and then races straight down at a great speed. It begins to flash one different color after another in rapid sucession. Just before it hits the valley floor it zigzags up at a sharp diagonal. It then stops abruptly and then loops downwards and disappears behind a low hill on the far side of the valley. What ever it was that was no airplane or heliocopter that Rook knows of.

OOC: I am going to go with the X-File form of FBI protocol. Right now you don't have any pressing assignments and if something comes along you are pretty free to investigate it on your own. You can just tell Mason that Derringer has asked for your assistance in a case and your going to be gone a few days.

"Sir, this is Agent Richard Andrews, DC Bureau. My partner, Agent Solomon Brown and I have been informed that you will be needing our assistance on a case." says Andrews as he makes questioning looks to Brown across the table, "We have our tickets and will be there to meet with you tomorrow." Christ, he thinks, I can always use the "oh, I thought this was Knoxville, KY" line if this fouls up.
Rook stares for a moment in shock. Finally, he speaks. "Holy *CED*ing *CED*ing *CED*." This is it. The thing he's been looking for years. The holy grail. A really good tape that's nearly impossible to fake. He rewinds, and notes the colored lights briefly shading the teenagers below--the ship's shadow moving fluidly, as a shadow ought to--basically an entire tape that screams 'real' at you while jumping on your spine and twisting your arm... Glancing over at Mark, Jacob asks, "Hey, Mark, you got some blank tapes I could use? Got a live one here..."
