"Bring out the evidence please"

Two members of the task support department come rushing through the doors to the meeting room, holding boxes of papers and things from the raid. The other department leaders widen their eyes at the amount of evidence that the field team had managed to take back to the headquarters.

"We have papers, toys and belongings from the mansion, that all seem to belong to one boy"

Edith slides over one of the boxes and peeks inside, seeing a mountain of schoolwork and graded papers. She looks at the name and notices the familiarity of it.

"The boy is Dion Elton, at least that's what's on his graded test papers"
Allan takes out one of the papers and shows the rest of the leaders. Evelyn nods, satisfied.

"Dion Elton? Like Derix Elton?"
Lele looks bewildered at her friend and opens another box. This time it's not test papers, but a bunch of expensive clothes in small sizes. A Gucci shirt with Dions name written on it is highest up on the pile.

"Yes. We suspect Dion to be his son, since his nephews and nieces live in the public eye. This Dion must be more important than a brothers or sisters son or daughter"

The other department leaders open the other boxes. Alex opens the one with toys inside. Most of them are either old baby toys that they found inside a closet, or science based ones. It seems like Dion wasn't one to play with toys. Skye peeks inside another box filled with notebooks, and opens one that says "Dions diary" in beautiful handwriting. In fact, all of Dions notes seem perfectly done and always right. Every single test paper has full marks and every single clothing is neatly folded and used.

"Look I found his diary"

The others look towards Skye as they open the notebooks first page.

"Could you read it out loud?"

Skye squints their eyes until they are used to the style of writing, and begins to read in a clear voice.

"Dion Elton, 8 years old.

Today my tutor requested me to do a university exam. She wanted to know if I was good enough to pass, if I can remember the exact words, she said something about wanting to find my inner genius. I was not so thrilled by this. Father had been very clear that I should not get a single paper without full marks, yet this test seemed very hard. My tutor said I got a B. I am very frightened and I hope my father will not be too angry with me. I have to study harder next time."

Skye finished reading and continued to flip through the pages. The others stare at each other in wonder and amazement.

"Do you think he is some sort of genius? Getting a B in a university exam at eight years old?"

Evelyn shakes her head in bewilderment and checks through the box in front of her. It's filled with test papers and she notices that each grade is perfect. Nothing less then full marks. She buries her head in her hands and sighs.

"Here! The most recent one before he stopped writing!"

Skye yells out and scans the paper.

"What do you think happened to him? Why was the mansion left in such a hurry?"
Allan spoke carefully, having seen the state of the empty hidden mansion earlier that day. Jake gives him a supportive smile when he notices the worry in his eyes. Whatever happed to Dion, they have to know if he is dead or alive. The future of their country rests on his shoulders.
