Chrononicles and Curious Cases of McLamb

Daniel: So what's the problem, Sammy-o? Is it just Mum or is it something else? Maybe... school - are you being bullied? Or is it something worse? Can you give me any clues at all?
Sam: You really want to know?
Daniel: I really want to know.
Sam: Even though you won't be able to do anything to help?
Daniel: Even if that's the case, yeah.
Sam: OK. The truth is actually... I'm in love.
Daniel: Sorry?
Sam: I know I should be thinking about Mum all the time, and I am. But the truth is I'm in love and I was before she died, and there's nothing I can do about it.
Daniel: Aren't you a bit young to be in love?
Sam: No.
Daniel: Oh, OK, right. Well, I'm a little relieved.
Sam: Why?
Daniel: Well, you know - I thought it might be something worse.
Sam: [incredulous] Worse than the total agony of being in love?
Daniel: Oh. No, you're right. Yeah, total agony.



The case file has become more curious and strange as the days go by. The silly lion and lamb seem to be acting all the more weird with time. Today she smiled more than previous days and she seems to be really trying. The lamb on the other hand seems lost at what to do. They parted ways and she went off. After the last encounter tailing the lion, I knew better that it would be a complete waste of time to actually follow her again. It was rather simple actually to follow the lamb instead.

He drove rather aimlessly and barely noticed as I jumped on board his car. The weather was fine today for spying and I'm rather pleased having to hide in the boot that it was finally clean except for some trails of mud and grass. This is another mystery that needs solving but not as important as trying to spy on the more vulnerable lamb. Will send samples of the grass and mud for HQ investigations later on. I had my ears as close as I could and it was only a few minutes before the lamb started on the phone.

How curious indeed that lamb was contacting the lion. Were they operating on a separate mission but working together to ensure their success? The lamb seemed more happy than yesterday and I found his conversation rather stupid and beating round and round the bush. It seemed that all he was doing was really finding an excuse just to hang on the phone with the lion. Was this some code that I need to crack? He mentioned funny stuff in between putting down the phone about just saying things just to hear her breathe. He was happier yes but still sad which I find it hard to understand.

He mumbled things about how hard it was for her that she was trying and he appreciated everything that she did. I nearly caught a tear but it was just a flash of the light. He said what was most important was to take things one day at a time and to just live life loving. Were they planning some coordinated attack on the public now and they just had to be patient and wait for their time? He said something that it's hard to remember happy memories so the only cure is to make happier ones day by day. The lion and lamb relationship seem to be getting odd and I just can't figure it out. On the overall, it was a good day it seemed to the silly lamb and I could gather no more information. Writing this reports without getting caught seems to be getting more hard and weirder by the moment. Hoping to find more clues soon.

I wanna tell you a little secret, being the one is just like being in love. No one needs to tell you you are in love, you just know it, through and through.

It has been a brutal two days. I have not been back to HQ for days and all communications seems remote. The weather has been horrible and so inviting for more rest. Two nights ago, managed to sneak in under the heavy rain in early morning but was nearly discovered placing a recorder in the Lion's den. McDog was acute and smart enough to create a diversion that the whole house would blame him instead and allow me enough time to sneak into the room next door. Hiding under the bed, I was relieved that McDog was somehow dragged by the Lion into the same room. McDog spent a good few minutes giving me a piece of his mind on how careless I was and that I was too impatient. The only excuse I had to shut him up was that he was making a commotion and was attracting more attention. I recuperated through the day but heard from McDog that the entire den was not pleased at all with the diversion he caused.

The feeling of guilt has not gone away but there is little time to spare as I set up the necessary sneaking aids around the den while it remains empty. I hid in the Lion's car earlier only to find that they were taking the Lamb's which was utter disappointment. Had to settle for eating scraps and leftovers. The plate of bacon and sausages from their cosy breakfast was left untouched and was so tempted but as a trained agent managed to control myself. That Lion sure knows how to cook. Yesterday had little opportunity for action as well with the den being all quiet the entire night. I was furious that all my efforts had gone to waster and had to sabotage the heating system, and the air-con later in the morning just to vent my frustration. At least it caused them a bit of misery and not to mention lack of sleep. I need to get back to HQ. Humans make me nervous and I miss having milk. At least I heard McDog is fed properly with milk. Sigh. These adventures seem to go on.

Was feeling like taking a risk and took the chance to hide in the car before they could get in this morning. Gladly, the Lion spoke and it was the Lion's car that they drove. It was cold this morning too like yesterday and I would have called in sick if I was on office duty but life goes on and a soldier has to be strong. The Lion was gently wrapped in the arms of the Lamb and how I wished I could have an arm around me too :( Tried to overhear anything worth listening but there was nothing recorded and it was a slow ride to the airport grounds. I remember my training jumping off war planes. McDog was equally brilliant in the air. Chuckling softly, I wondered how true could it be that the Lion & Lamb were the main culprits behind all these mysteries.

Pulling to a stop, I noted how the Lamb wanted to hold the Lion's hand but held back and saw how much he was worried about her and wanted to carry her all the way. This Lamb is weak. Must note to take advantage of the Lamb's weaknesses for the Lion in future missions. I tailed behind from a safe distance. Deciding to follow the Lion as the Lion and the Lamb went their ways, I sniffed a lot of tiredness from the Lion. This could be my opportunate moment I thought. The Lion was distraught and busy today. She seems confused and sad at the same time. Realising that no further information could be obtained, I switched targets to the Lamb. The Lamb was a more sad case, constantly sighing wondering what he could do to help the Lion. Always thinking how to make her smile.

Both targets were lost causes so far and my mission seems to be making no headway at all. I managed to find an unoccupied computer and had to key in my findings. Hopefully HQ gets news of this. Reporting over and out until the next journals of the Chronicles.

McLamb still alive

Footnote: The Lamb can not seem to smile at all when the Lion does not. They both seem to feed each other's energy all the time. Have even heard weird rumblings from the Lamb whispering to himself, "Today was beautiful because you are beautiful. And when you do not smile and hide the sun, how can there be sunshine in my life. What can I do to make you smile?". This evil plot is getting more curious by the minute.

Monday, 13th July Year of the Cow, Chrononicles and Curious Cases of McLamb

The hundredth post has come and gone. I'm sitting in a dark corner evading all capture as I put this down on thewrecktan's blog. During the past week, many mysterious sightings have happened. I am recording this as the first of many so that others may gather the clues and come to find the truth. I am writing this as part of the case files of the curious and the strange of our department while on the field.

Just in the past week, multiple agents have been sighted missing and all clues so far have lead to dead ends. We have taken great care to mark the crime scenes and have scrubbed the places clean with the latest technology. The only clues we have are lion and lamb paw prints all over the crime scene. This has equally puzzled all of us who have seen everything over the years of invetigating the curious and the strange. Our agency has dealt with the most mysterious files ever reported and here we were stumped. The only logical way forward was for me to go undercover and sleauth to dig the truth.



Only two days ago, a lion and lamb were spotted excitedly wading around the entire Klang Valley in search of diving gears. Seen prowling from shop to shop, the notorious pair have been known to have already acquired a near full set of diving gear while laughing their way through real bargains. Questions over whether they are known underwater terrorist have been raised back at headquarters. My attempts to follow them was an epic fail as they weaved in and out of traffic on a full day expedition of terror. Have sent signals back to Lamb HQ for more support on this matter after the trail went cold.

And only yesterday, I spent six hours snooping outside the lion's den waiting for another opportunity to sneak up on them. It was a brutal wait until the haze and hot sun. They finally emerged after the sun had long set with to my surprise agent McDog. The skies were dark with little to no stars which was perfect for my needs. I quickly evaded and jumped into a nearby drain as they went by. McDog was on his walk with the couple and I thought the opportunity was ripe to gather more information. I snooped around behind them waiting for agent McDog to be separated from them. Walking past a block, it was evident that the time was right and I slowly whistled to get his attention. McDog was not too surprised to find me around having been briefed by headquarters that I was on the case.

We hustled back to the lion's den to buy us some time while I gathered whatever information possible while the pair frantically searched in the wrong direction. Running off with me, agent McDog had little to share except for the fact that the couple have been having a good time plotting what we fear might be the end. Everything seems to add up to my suspicion. Diving lessons, more diving equipment after a lot of haggling and queer visits in the night with agent McDog. Did they already know McDog was a spy?

The search lights are already turned on, I must leave now and continue to monitor the lion and the lamb. Having run all these years, hiding in the dark to seach for the light has become tiresome. I have sent messages back to HQ and hope they too may provide clues on proceeding next. There are many questions to come and I only hope that I stay alive long enough to see the light and to tie up all loose ends. Signing off on the first entry of the Chronicles.

McLamb

FOOTNOTE. It must be noted that the lamb was transfixed with the lion applying strange powder and chemicals on her face. It was heard from the recording device of the lamb muttering, "People complain about waiting for their partners applying makeup but who would not give up everything to be right here waiting for you finish applying your makeup? People take things for granted but I really treasure this time even now waiting for you to make yourself beautiful for me. I love you". Curious indeed this evil plot.
