At the infinity library:

Shario walked into the infinity library after having eaten at the TSA Headquarters. She could see that there were some looking for books. As she looked above her she could see Yuuno flying above her putting some books back on their place. "Yuuno!" Shario called and she could see that she had Yuuno's attention. He flew down towards the ground.

"Yes, Shario. Do you have the necklace so that we can get started?" Yuuno asked

"Yes I have it here" Shario said as she pulled a plastic bag from her handbag. Yuuno could clearly see that some sort of weapon on it. It was made of some octagon composed of two rectangles with a star in the middle. He could also see that it was made in an intriguing way and he could see that whoever made it had to be skilled at making jewelry.

"Alright, shall we go to a technical room here for some testing? We really should find out where this necklace came from and maybe find out its precise age" Yuuno said to which Shario nodded. They walked towards a clear technical room.

When they entered the room Shario gave Yuuno the bag with the necklace, while she took place at a consul. Yuuno took a glove, put it on and took the necklace out of the back and into an examining pod. When the pod was closed Shario started the examining procedure and the necklace was examined. While they were waiting for the results to show up, both started working on other work that they had to finish. They also talked about work and the normal stuff colleagues talk about.

After two hours of examining the results showed up on the screen and both were shocked by the results as they showed that the necklace originated form a planet they didn't know excited. The coordinates of the planet were showed, with a warning that this might not match completely and that during traveling there caution should be high.

"We should get this information to Admiral Harlaown" Shario said to which Yuuno reacted with

"We should also ask the navigation department for their opinion on how to proceed with traveling to these coordinates"

Shario agreed on this and saw that when she opened her message box that she had a message in there with the name and location of their ship. She send the information from the exam towards the admiral. When she was done she stood up and walked with Yuuno towards the office of the navigation department.

Meanwhile at Nahoha's house:

Vivio had just finished showering when she heard the front door opening. She quickly dried herself and made her way towards the living room when she saw Nanoha coming up the stairs. When their eyes met, Nanoha walked back towards the ground floor with Vivio following. Entering the living room Nanoha motioned towards Vivio to sit down on the bank and when they both were sitting she said:

"Vivio, Chrono-kun has given me permission to take you along on this mission as you are applying to become a member of the bureau. You should know that you are not to go into the field, if you want ask permission beforehand and not act like me and do it without, which will result in a scolding. Do you understand?"

"Thank you Nanoha-mama!" Vivio called enthusiastic.

"Do not thank me, but Chrono once we get on the ship. He will have everything arranged that you can come along without problems, so go get your stuff. Don't forget anything" Nanoha said as she saw Vivio nodding and running towards her room to get her stuff. Half an hour later Vivo was ready and eager to leave.

"Can we leave now, Nanoha-mama?" Vivio asked.

"Yes, we can. First we need to go to the airport to get on a ship to the headquarters and there we need to go to dock 25" Nanoha said.

"Alright" Vvio said as she and Nanoha went to their car and went to the airport.

Meanwhile in the neighborhood where the commander lived:

When arriving at the scene after the meeting, Fate said "Teana, Ginga could you start with a neighborhood investigation. Caro, Lutecia help with managing the scene and if you can do some investigations. Erio, take care of Agito and tell her what were are doing. Also tell her that she can help with the investigations as she might recognize the aura of the unsup and be able to find Signum if she is close" Fate said as she started to walk to the lead technical investigator, who was called Sam.

"What have you found out already, anything that might be of use to us?" Fate asked Sam.

"Yes, we have found somethings or rather the lack of traces. There are no fingerprints to be found that belong to anyone other than the commander and her family. Also the aura which we have investigated can only be found in the attic and nowhere in or around the house. This means that the unsup is either well know with technical investigations as we had to find traces of this even after this time. The only explanation I can give is that they were taken by some creature that we have not yet come in contact with" Sam said.

"This is worrisome but have you found a trace as to which direction they left in?" Fate asked.

"No, that is another strange thing. Some traces have suggested that they have come from space, but sensors that we recently put to use haven't found out anything while they were working perfectly" Sam said.

"Could you sent me the data you have and keep up the good work" Fate said.

"Of course" Sam said as he started to send the information. Afterwards Fate started to overlook the information while Sam got back to investigating the scene.

Three hours later when the neighborhood investigation was finished the group was called back together to give report about what they have found out, which was not much as the neighborhood didn't notice anything of importance in the night Hayate disappeared. There had no unknown cars stopped in the neighborhood, no people or creatures that were suspicious.

"This means that we have a complete lack of leads as we can't find a place to start, the only thing we can hope is that Shario has found something or else this might become a cold case for lack of evidence" Fate concluded. "Let's return back to the ship as we have gotten the location of the ship"

A few days later everyone was gathered on board of the ship, in the conference room:

As Chrono walked into the room everyone stood up. He walked towards his chair and sat down while waving for everyone to do the same. He looked at everyone who sat around the table and said "Fate, Teana, Ginga, I know you went back to the commanders home for some further information and investigating but I don't have a report from what you have found. Send me the information before the meeting is over"

"I will send it to you right now, we were too engrossed in the information we gathered and simply forgot about is. I apologize" Teana said as Fate and Ginga nodded to show the felt the same about forgetting to send the information. A few minutes later Chrono received the information.

"Alright, as I didn't have time to read it, would you explain what you have found in the commanders neighborhood?" Chrono asked.

"Teana and I conducted a neighborhood investigation on Fate's request while she talked with the lead technical investigator. During the neighborhood investigation we discovered that no one had seen anything suspicious, no cars or individuals. For them it was a normal evening where nothing strange happened. As for the technical investigation, we only know what fate told us. I believe she can explain that better than Teana or I" Ginga said while looking towards fate who nodded.

"Sam, the lead technical investigator, told me that they had a complete lack of evidence save for the aura in the attic. They couldn't find any fingerprints that belonged to any other person who was not of the commander's family. The fact that they also couldn't find any trace of the aura anywhere in the house save for the attic, also there were no traces of this aura in the area surrounding the house. This concerned him but also me as this means that this person wanted us to know who he was in the attic but managed to cover his tracks on other locations. Our only hope is that Shario has found something or else we don't have any leads left to follow and we might not find the commander" Fate explained.

"This is indeed concerning that the unsup managed to cover his traces everywhere. He would have had to scout the area before he could abduct the commander and her family. Because of this information I want everyone to remember that we are dealing with an intelligent, strong and resourceful.

Shario, you and Yuuno managed to gather information on the necklace. I want you to explain what you have found out to everyone" Chrono said.

"Well, Yuuno and I found out after examining the necklace that according to the examining procedure it originated from another planet, which has been undiscovered until know. We were able to get coordinates, but the program warned that it might nog necessary be completely accurate. I send you the data already so you should know the coordinates, Admiral" Shario said which created a steam of confused and curious questions from the others around the table. Chrono started to think everything over and came to the conclusion that they would have to go to those coordinates and see what was there. He said after letting everyone convey their thoughts

"Alright everyone, I think the best course of actions is to travel to the coordinates Shario found as we don't have any leads that force us to conduct more investigations on Mid-Childa. Anybody disagrees with me?" He got a series of "No" as an answer and shakes of the heads.

"Admiral, as we will be traveling to this unknown planet I want to warn you and everyone else that we should proceed there with caution, for we don't know what is out there" Nanoha warned to which everyone agreed after considering her reasoning. With this all said everyone got back to their work to prepare themselves and their ship for the travel and arrival at this strange planet.
