"Blasphemy!" Shouted Rasmus, the temporary leader of the Azzorie Family. He's quite muscular along with the rest of the Family along with wearing the same white habit, both he and the Father stand in a Corridor near one of the walls. "This is just absolute Falsehood." He's saying to the leader of the Society.
"Rasmus Azzorie, as I know that it is hard to believe..." Boon began talking but soon to be cut off.
"What! That the possibilities that the Doctor, our Doctor, will pull something like this." Rasmus began. "We know him a very long time."
"To the point, he could snap and know the capabilities of what we could do," Father said.
Rasmus folded his arms in front of his chest. "He's not that kind of man who's ravenous to Absolute Power."
"He has stolen something before."
"With no relative event involve us.I don't remember us created a machine that is can travel in space and time like its some kind of waterfall."
"The Doctor does have history when it comes to theft."
"This whole conversation is biased."
"Look." Father Boon place both of his hands on each Rasmus' shoulders. "I know how you feel about this, but what Deepak and I saw, it leads the Time Lord under suspect of the Heist."
Rasmus only gave a heavy sigh and looks in a different direction for a brief moment then looks back at the Father. "I want to see Deepak."
"Sorry Rasmus, but-" Father Boon spoke yet again get cut off.
"It's not far don't you think? Can the Azzorie Family speak on the behalf of this."
Father Boon press his hands together. "Yes but not you, Wolsey, since he is the Boon of the Doctor."
"But he's not here!"
"Here or not, it doesn't change it, Wolsey is the Behalf of the Doctor. Sorry, Rasmus." Father Boon began walking down of the Corridor, Rasmus brush his hair with one of his hand as he exhales heavily, he let his hand drop to the side to looking up to the ceiling for a moment or two.

In one room filled with other members of the Family, all agitated and concern on the news that they might get, soon they all hear the Leader walks in the room, about three other members walk up to him asking for information about the situation with the Doctor, Rasmus held both of his hands sightly.
"Sorry everybody, nothing useful and that the Doctor is still gonna be under suspicion."
The whole Family groan.
"This is just terrible, just terrible." Kallix Azzorie said sitting in one of the chairs in the room. "Did you even try to make Father understand?"
"Believe me, I had," Rasmus replied.
"Well, it sure doesn't sound like it to me."
"I asked him what should we even speak on our behalf, but it as to be Wolsey to do that."
"Speaking of him, where's that indolent fool?" Kai Azzorie raised. Rasmus shrugged his shoulders.
"Neither I nor the Father knows where he is, which I think doesn't even care about that"
Kallix scoffs. "Of course he doesn't, Father Boon is against of ones that be absent a lot."

Deepak jogs down the same corridor once before when he was with the Father but now this time he is alone this time, he walks the same pathways and went through the same secret entrances to the same place which held the Samaritan Ancient Text. Deepak felt as if his eyes are playing tricks on him as he sees the book on the stand, on being astonished he began taking steps more closer to the stand, book wide open, he began to openly smile not questioning on how or why it has returned. He closes the book, took it off the stand, and hide underneath his robes, he instantly heard something coming from behind, he turns around to only see a Muscular featureless humanoid as the same height as him with long raven black hair with the face covered by a Silver Mask with glowing eyes and zig-zag mouth like a pumpkin carving, it began to make hissing noises and having Deepak frightened.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?"
There was no response, the Humanoid began to walk towards him.
"No! You keep away! No! No!
Deepak screams in horror from what it did. The Humanoid vanish, as the body of Deepak fell to the floor with the book flew out with it still being closed.
