"Yeah, but what. The odds of holding it ransom after this year are almost nothing. And, it's a standard seasonal vaccine. This isn't rubella, here." Allan sighed. "Maybe they're thrill seekers... or the national chapter of Friends of the Flu."
He paused, looking to choose his words so they will be understood by Aki and Dryzh. "In any event, if we chase the thief, we are most likely leaving this world for another. It will not always be safe or easy. If we are going to chase the thief, I need a show of hands. Who will go after the thief? Otherwise, we follow clues on this world, for now." He didn't raise his hand right away, looking to see others opinions. He knew he was the missions's boss, but this was more than pointing and shooting, or whatever.

" This is not my world, leaving it not bother me." Dryzh replied. " I willing do what needed, Allan." he turned to the others, his head tilted in curiousity," I thought human feetwear not smell good and no like smell."

"I'm certain Torchwood's investigative teams can manage." Tesla nods, "As long as we don't meet up with or bring back anything dangerous." His thoughts were concerned with a two robotic races that might try again, or be on other worlds not of this reality.
He didn't know a lot about other dimensions but found the topic interesting, especially after reading the accounts of a certain Doctor..

"As much as I dislike Dimension travel although it is probably more of the why than the actual travel itself. I think I am actually ready for it if you are master Tesla." She then scans the group, "But master you also stated you wished to be informed what I could do and plausibly the others, should we review that before we go or during the journey itself?"

"Getting provisions and gear before the trip might be a good idea.." he agreed with Sapphire and looked to the team leader. He seemed to cringe slightly at the dirt and wipe some off his military issue long coat.
Tesla was by no means a military man but found the gear to be quite practical. Since Torchwood was listed as 'British Special forces' it seemed a good disguise and it was functional. During WWII he learned to used firearms and knives. Both he chose out necessity. He was by his nature a non-violent type..

"Eh, I don't mind leaving the world for a little while." Dimentional journeys lost their meaning to Taifuu a long time ago. He wanted to get back into the action again and see what the low down was on these current events.

Sapphire actual requirements are near zero so she waits for whatever her master and his companions needs. If anyone requests help she will offer it but otherwise stays by Tesla's side until otherwised called upon!

"Aki?" Allan asks, looking at the little Korean woman and her friend. "Stay or go?"

***********************************
Torchwood, Dehli: The New Coronet Club
Eventually, the team makes their way back to Torchwood, Dehli.* No useful information was uncovered regarding Sapphire's finds. Seems to be a piece of pottery used by soldiers in an ancient campaign. The online info at the library identifies the scraps of a book as a work of fiction which contained some historically relevant ceramic descriptions.
One of the captain's from another Torchwood location is present to debrief them upon their return. After listening carefully to any details the team is able to recount, he sighs.
"There have been hundreds more thefts since you left. Some look to be copycats, but we think some of the major thefts are the same person you encountered at the vaccine lab. Interpol is in chaos. Most of the world's major intelligence outfits have contacted us with jobs to track down this thief. All kinds of information, designs, secrets and more than a few technological breakthoughs have been stolen. So far, there have been no breaks."
"Two other Torchwood teams are working on this project independantly as of now, yet you are the only ones to get a good look at the thief and to gather any legitimate leads."
"What do you need to find this guy? There are at least three areas we could apply resources too. One, we could search historical records to see if he has been active in the past, to see if we can get more information. Two, we could allow Torchwood to be infiltrated. There have been at least two attempts, and we think there is a good chance the thief is trying to find out more about our capabilities and monitor our activities to make his job easier. We could allow his spies in, feed them information and attempt to learn from them or trace their communcations back to his network. Third, we can find a time traveller to assist us in the search."
The man rubs his eyes. "All of those ideas will require alot of resources of course, so it would be really helpful if you can prioritize. Well, any inclinations? Bright ideas?"
He looks at them impatiently...
(*A couple more research posts can be added in the Cyber Earth thread if need be, but keep it short.)

Allan stared back, bemusedly. "I wonder why he's getting raids in these days. Unless he wants something from the past, maybe? Best way to learn about what you did in the past is to look back from the future. He could be testing us, or he could be distracting us. Maybe he just wants Sapphire's and Aki's phone numbers."
"In the meantime, do you have any information about a group called the Harriers?"

Aki looks up from her spot on a chair and watching Yuki wrestle a chunk of rope [about 12 inches or so killer snake and all].
'hmm? .. what is number? .. why i have one?' *looking at Allen*
*then looking at the other domininant male making many words comments 'he is not along. he seeks to ... butt heads? .. proof he can .. ' *she pauses looking at the man and wonders how to word it.
*slips into Korean* 'is being easier for me to speak this. the other is hard words from kit age .. lost long ago'

"I am not sure Aki. Yes if it is ok if I ask Mr. Allen. What is a phone number?? And why would the said individual want one?"
Sapphire looks around confused before looking at her master in hopes for an answer. "Also master would now be a good time to have that discussion from a little bit a go that you mentioned you wanted to have?"

Allan smiles. "I was implying, that all this was because the thief had a crush and you both. It is a joke on the thief and not yourselves, in case you are worried."
He smirked at Aki's suggestion of a power trip (or at least interpretting it as such). But he waits for the boss to mention what Torchwood knows about Harriers.

This prompts Sapphire to have an even more confused look on her face as she turns to see if Aki is confused as her. "Are you saying the thief would want to crush me?? Why would he want to do me bodily harm, as he seemed adamantly against that on our last meeting. Although this could work I guess in favour if you wish to use us as bait of some sort I guess. I mean as much as it hurts I doubt he could kill me very easily!"
She looks around at the rest half worried that this is the plan they wish to proceed with.
