Puffing her pipe, she exhaled the heady smoke, enjoying the subtle relaxing veil that encompassed her mind, due to her special Amazon Monta, or Weed as people called it. Dimly she realized it was illegal in most of the known world, but that fact didn't bother her, at least, not as much as the question. The question of just where the heck her Great Grand Daughter had gone off too. She wasn't here, she had checked. The bedrooms weren't empty, filled with people quickly caught in a hazy red lust. That was her first clue as to what happened here. She didn't claim to know any of the people currently making randy in the upstairs bedrooms, but she highly doubted that high school girl would really give herself to the seventy year old Kusanagi. The man was surprisingly virile for his age, which wasn't very surprising since he practiced a rather esoteric form of martial arts, that being Anything goes Postal Worker Mail Service.
"Lust.." she hmmed, biting at the end of her pipe. A quick check of her personal store of such things showed nothing to be missing, so this had to be some type of outside influence. That still left far too many questions for her to make any type of judgment. Why here? Who did it? Just what was used? Was her GG-Daughter affected? That wouldn't be good, no ma'am it wouldn't be good at all. She spared her trashed main room another long glance, eyeing anything that could be a clue that she had missed in her initial scan. It wasn't long until something caught her eye. Hopping off the table, she upended one of the stools, pulling out a rather large flour bag that had no reason to be there what so ever. Tentatively she reached in, pulling some of the remaining dust out.
"Not flour.." she mumbled, stating the obvious. The material was sandy, like dust, only with numerous sparkling particles that glinted off the dim light every so often. She tentatively took a lick of the dust, before her body suddenly stilled. As a haze began to envelope her mind, she quickly swore never to smoke weed again, at least not while investigating something like this.

Theodore softly tip toed down the hall, mindful to stay near the walls less any unsuspecting worker bump into him and ruin his invisibility field. He didn't think anybody would be very happy to find an intruder in one of the most protected Government buildings in Japan. If he got caught, he didn't doubt he'd be able to escape, but that would cause so many problems he didn't even want to think about it. M would be pissed, as this would no doubt some how fall on him, since it wasn't a secret he had worked for the Agency.
He froze, pressing up against the wall as two old ladies came out of an adjacent room from the hall he had been sneaking down. The were rather homely Japanese women, fat from numerous child births and their lack of will to actually exercise, with permanent scowls pressed into their features, no doubt a sign of how much they hated their lot in life.
"That bastard Sanada gave Ms. Top Heavy Shinuria the promotion." one lady grumped nastily.
The other simply scowled, "What do you expect from a girl who'll spread her legs for a yen note?"
Theo ignored them, waiting silently as they passed by. Once they had turned the corner, he carefully began moving forward again. It didn't take him long to find what he was looking for. Gazing up and down the hall quickly, he summoned his power, reappearing for a brief second only to suddenly disperse into a fine grey mist that lowered to the ground, traveling under the door, and rebuilding upon itself on the other side.
Theo grimaced, rubbing his head tiredly once he had reformed. Turning into Mist wasn't a hard thing to do, what was hard about it was trying to go where you wanted to. It was like looking through a kladeiscope, his senses spread out over the entirety of his misty body. It always gave him a terrible headache. Shaking that off, he spared the room a glance. There was little light in the room, and lots and lots of files stacked all over the place covered with years upon years of dust. He sighed then, knowing that this was going to take quite a bit of digging around, and also realizing he only had a few hours today to do it. He hmmed, "Maybe Julia wouldn't mind staying a few more days?"
