X-Force: X-Force Only Comm

My flight leaves very early, so I'll leave these instructions for the rest of you. It's now been twelve days since we started looking for Jennie with little to show for it. Turns out another student is missing as well, Marius something, and guess where he was last seen? If you say 'Paris', you won a cookie. While I'm not Sherlock Holmes, even I can make a solid guess that the two disappearances are somehow connected.

The good news is that it doesn't seem likely that this is a kidnapping. There's been no demands, and neither disappearance is alike enough to make two seperate random kidnappings that plausible. It's also less likely that they went off to join Magneto and strap on the magenta codpiece of evil. That means we're not going in loaded for a combat situation. What seems the most logical is that Jennie's disappearance somehow led to Marius' disappearance. Maybe he went to help her, maybe they got her to get to him, maybe they ran away to get married and missed Vegas by a long shot. If someone is keeping them hostage, they're not going to be able to move around much. If they're trying to stay hidden by their own choice, they're going to leave tracks we can find. They're not trained how to disappear, so they will make mistakes. We use those to find them.

First things first. Doug, you're on the media. Mutants leave traces where they go, even if they're trying to be sneaky. I've left copies of both of their powers in your e-mail. Start looking for anything that might be a result of one or both of them using their abilities. Focus on Paris around the dates last seen, and move forward and out in radius. Marie-Ange, you're our resident French woman; help Doug pinpoint where an American and an Australian are likely to try to hide and get themselves noticed. Also, go through that information we grabbed from the kidnapping ring to see if there are any connections with European outfits, just in case.

Wanda, your contacts in France. If they don't have anything useful for you by Wednesday, get yourself on a flight over here. Bribe or threaten. Consider the funds unlimited for both. Betsy is trying to work out some of her international links, see if they might have skipped out of Europe on shoddy passports or something. Mark, you're working with Wanda for the next couple of days. I want you to give her all of the clubs, DJs and other things connected with the young mutant culture in Europe. NYC is crawling with Eurotrash larve, and I'm willing to bet they show up at your club to try and turn a bad accent and European club name dropping into a blowjob.

Amanda, if you've still got that location spell, see if you can narrow things down for us. If that doesn't work, you and Sarah get over to the school and talk to these students friends. Find me some motives or information that would make them not want to be found by anyone else. Why would they be hiding out from everyone in Europe, good and bad possibilities. After that, you guys can help the others with the media search.

Sofia, I'm betting you either still have access as an FBI officer to Interpol's query database, or you can get it without killing someone. See if you can find me arrest warrents, incident reports or criminal investigations that might have anything to do with these two missing kids. Find me something and I'll even call you 'Mistress' while I'm on the couch in your office.

E-mail me updates, use the comm to share what you find with each other. If anyone has an intelligent idea or course of action I missed, now is the time to mention it. Otherwise, let's get on this. If I'm out of contact for more than 24 hours without any explanation, assume worst case scenario, and get the X-Men involved before even considering coming out in the field after me.
