Holly's phone rang. She whacked the off button. It didn't turn off. She groaned, and picked it up.
"HOLLY! What are you doing still in bed! We have a crisis here! Get your pointy ears in here, right now!"
It took Holly's still half asleep mind two seconds to process both the fact that it was Colonel Root on the phone yelling at her, and that he had said there was a crisis. As soon as she had gotten that through her mind, she was instantly awake. She leapt out of bed, put on her uniform, and was out the door in record time. After a long wait in traffic, she arrived at Police Plaza. She spotted Root as soon as she ran in the door.
"Colonel! What's wrong?"
"Foaly is missing!"
"WHAT?!"
"You heard me! I need you to do an above ground sweep for me. Take a squadron and the Hummingbirds. I need you up there now!"
"Yes, sir!"
A few hours later, she had returned. She reported to Root immediately.
"Nothing, sir!"
"D'arvit! Well, help us search Ops. Actually, just let us in. Foaly has that thing locked up tighter than a dwarf's tunnel. You're the only other person who knows the password."
Holly led the way to the Ops booth, and typed in the 50 digit password. She had always thought that Foaly was a little too paranoid, but maybe he was right to be. In any case, she opened the door and looked inside. Nothing unusual at first glance. However, she saw that his tinfoil hat was in the garbage, and there were scrape marks on the floor. He had obviously not wanted to be taken away.
"You know, Colonel, there is probably only one person who can find Foaly now."
"No, Holly. Even if we could bring him down here, he couldn't. We wiped his memory. He has no idea that we even exist anymore."
"But sir, we could just implant Foaly's saved copy of his memory over what we erased, then mind wipe him again."
Root paused for a second, then said "Maybe. If we really need to. But only if we can't find any trace of him. And we can't replace all of his memory. Let him forget about our technology and about Mulch Diggums."
"Yes sir!"
The lead member of the search team said "We can't find anything, sir. All we can make out is that he didn't want to go. No final notes or anything."
"D'arvit." Root swore.

This is my first fic. Please read and review. Any correction or mistakes you spot, please tell me about. I am trying to do this mainly in the style of the third book. There will be a lot of Artemis's journal entries for a while. And I will not set a clear date for update times, at least for a while.
