Describing what Kev and Anya saw with the angels, only confused Theodore, and Lila, as they shared looks with each other. Hearing how they're covered in dirt, apparently digging somewhere in the train yard.

Hearing all the stones and minerals they found, baffled the two equally, mostly because of the descriptions given of Kev and Anya's haul. Finding that amount in one spot, seemed almost impossible, especially some of the sizes they described.

While true there's always a possibility of stumbling upon a mineral ore hidden in a backyard, the fashion in which these were found, gave the two pauses, as they're all loose. Not attached to clumps of rock or other, simply loose, with some dirt attached.

Indeed, there have been instances of people finding lose stones and minerals, not in this quality.

Baffling, indeed, both Theodore and Lila went through the knowledge they procured reading genealogy books in the library.

Without the backpacks, they're unable to study them closely, because it intrigued Theodore.

He asked if anyone found similar and Kev responded he didn't hear anyone finding anything like their hauls before.

"Angels digging to China, that's a new one," Lila raised a brow at this while Theodore processed the information given about why the angles might've come to the train yard.

It baffled him that they're digging, considering they generally try to remain prim, hoping to catch prey off-guard, and it made him curious as to what's buried in that spot that they wanted.

A source of energy, presumably, but considering what they heard, didn't seem possible. Seemed impossible more than anything and Theodore turned to the only thing capable of deciphering the mystery.

Helming the controls, Theodore went by memory as he worked to switch on the search and scan, configuring it so the TARDIS' able to weed out what's in the train yard the angels wanted.

A push of the button, he looked up as the lights wavered, the TARDIS having trouble scanning because of its age, and he sighed before telling the three to stay put, as he prepared to reroute power.

Getting on his knees and prying open the underside of the console, Theodore worked to rewire and redirect power to where it's needed.

Between his job, playing the part, feeding his ferrets, Theodore's hard at work trying to fix the TARDIS, as it struggles at time.

If not for Gallifrey having issues with him being part human and the fact they planned to scrap the TARDIS, Theodore would've taken it to there for them to look at it, as they'd have tools, he didn't have to fix it.

Jumping up as he dusted off his knees, Theodore tried it again, and this time, they're getting results. Not in a timely matter, but results nonetheless, and they're showing no energy sources in the train yard. He even checked the area where Kev said there's the hole, nothing, and it further confused him as he looked at the scans.

Angels don't dig without reason, but without an energy source at the end of their dig, it didn't make any sense as to why they're digging.

Curiouser and curiouser, this adventure.

"If there's nothing there, why are they digging?" Lila questioned why the angels wasted effort digging a hole if there's nothing for them to supple their energy needs.

Frowning, Theodore replied he wished he knew, but he summed that the angels started digging not long ago, sensed Kev and Anya coming to the train yard, and hunted them.

Now, he's sure they're circling the train yard, searching for them, and would've gone back to digging until they sense them again.

"What now?" Kev asked Theodore what he planned against the angels.
