[VIDEO: Drake's Network mirror suddenly begins streaming a video without a clear introduction, focus, or message. It's angled at the floor most of the time, but jostles around chaotically and blacks out every time his hand readjusts or closes around it. There are voices; one is definitely Drake's, and there's the occasional flash of a knife being brandished at an adult Malcolm, who looks white-faced and cautious.]

-chance, mate. My roomie is [muffled]-it-all boy. Malcolm [muffled], 'bout eleven. Yea tall, dark hair, likes fruit suckers, bit of a creepy air about 'im, now I think about it. Now get [muffled] and explain yourself. You'd better make it good, I'm broadcasting.

[It's evident that Drake has been caught entirely by surprise and would very much like some form of law enforcement to show up to take care of the intruder who, for all he knows, has kidnapped the child.]

Re: Action (Although one of their main targets just left before they find him...)

Once it's clear that the perpetrator has fled, Rice doesn't hesitate into going over to the unconscious man on the floor and checking him for injuries, and any clue of what happened before they got there.

"Mmn, Indeed," She says, flipping out her 3M and putting out a broadcast.

"An update on the previous transmission. One of the men, Drake I think, is unconscious and the other man has fled the scene. If anyone could keep an eye out and let us know... And also perhaps send a medic to Drake's room," She says, leaving her compact on the floor while she and Harry take a closer look.

"I can't see any blood," She murmurs.

(Oh thank Merlin for that, he thought that there might be injuries graver than a few bruises on Drake and him being unconscious for now. And in addition to the knife left unattended, Harry saw some bags of groceries on the kitchen counter and on the floor, hence why he originally thought that the other man was out to steal Drake’s groceries. Although he does have some audio clues on based on the feed.)

Hmm... That guy (Drake) did mentioned having a child for a roommate before right now, then the other man claimed that he was that child under a new name and hates his old name. I wish that this man will wake up after this and can tell us what he knows of the little boy before his older self showed up. Rice, do you find some other clues yet?
