Ali smiled looking down at the floor with slight embarasment letting a small squeak escape his lips, Taking back his notepad he thought for a while before scribbiling down something quickly trying to get the correct spelling and hopefully grammar.

My name is General Alexander Bracewell, commander of the the White Queen's Night Elf division.
Writting it twice on seperate peices of paper he handed one to Rielle and one to Jack, stratching his head he fiddled with his hair as he waited.

Rielle giggled and put her hand to her mouth in faux surprise, a warm smile on her lips. "Such a handsome young man of intrigue as well, Jack. I wonder who he could be!" She giggled again and took the piece of paper, her eyes widening in practiced awe. "Oh my. Well, General Bracewell," she said, standing and curtsying deeply, "it is a great honor to have you here in my modest little home. I fear I cannot live up to the White Queen's riches and glory, and my home is not as lavish as hers, but please stay here and let me show you hospitality." She sat back down and giggled softly. This was kind of fun.

Ali giggled lightly hardly making any noise as he did so, a beeping from his bag may his jump slightly. Digging into his bag he pulled out his phone the screen flashed as a new voice message appeard in block capital letters. Making a one minute gesutre with his hand he pushed the button that allowed the message to play, holding the device to his ear.

Removing the mask from his face he waited for the message to play, then the voice spoke:

"Alistair, were not made at you for running away. But we need to know where you are so we can bring you home where it's safe so, message me the location of wherever you are and i'll come and get you. Bye" the tone beeped signaled the ending of the message. Ali's face crumbled slightly, mostly in distress he didn't want to go back to the orphanage he didn't like it there. The other children made fun of him because he couldn't speak and the staff just didn't understand. Holding the phone out the Rielle he pointed to it then to his ear, trying to get her to listen to the message so she could figure out what to do.

Rielle frowned when she saw the look on Ali's face when he listened to the voice mail. Something wasn't right, she could just feel it. When Ali held the phone out to her, she took it delicately and listened to the voice mail herself. The look of worry soon faded into one of anger, and she turned away from them to hide the expression on her face. She wondered if she should find this orphanage and get rid of the people who were looking for Ali. That could work, but it could also distress Ali. She sighed and rubbed her temples, trying to decide what to do.

Ali had an idea, scribbiling down something quickly he showed her.

Why don't you invite them over, they might let you adopt me or something. I don't want to go back it scares me there.

He didn't know whether it would work, they would have to asses how well Rielle dealed with Ali's needs and choice of communication.

(Have to go may be back hopefull)

Rielle stared down at the piece of paper for a while, then looked up at Ali. "Well, I would like to adopt you, but I don't exactly look like I'm old enough to do that. Although..." She grinned and clapped her hands together. "All right. I have a plan."

Closely following Rielle's curtsy, Jack stood and gave a graceful bow. "An honor General!" Before long morale took a plunge. Ali retrieved some lit up bauble from his satchel and held it to his ear. Jack couldn't hazard a guess as to what the object was; it seemed no stranger than anything else he'd seen that day. What concerned Jack was that after being subjected to the item the others seemed distraught. Jack sat back and observed wearing a concerned expression.

"Well, I would like to adopt you, but I don't exactly look like I'm old enough to do that. Although..." Rielle said to Ali. A grin spread across her face and she clapped her hands together "All right. I have a plan." she exclaimed a moment later. Jack's expression persisted.

Rielle grinned and turned to Jack. "You will be a part of my plan, if you don't mind, Jack." She turned back to Ali. "You see, even if a person is young, if they are married, they will usually let them adopt a child who is close to their age. They find that marriage makes for a more secure home." Rielle turned back to Jack and bowed deeply, hiding her face behind a curtain of her long, blond hair. "I would greatly appreciate it if you would pose as my husband for just this one thing, Jack. The documents I can forge, and then destroy. Just please do both Ali and me a huge favor and put up with this for just one day."

"I'd be lying if I said I'm not flattered." Jack laughed in reply. "Rielle, I would gladly aid you in this endeavor. It looks like we'll have a masquerade of sorts after all."

Rielle smiled happily and stood up straight, clapping her hands together. "Right! I'll just go and age myself a bit and make the papers quickly. You two talk about what you want to do when I call the orphanage back and request to adopt Ali. After all, we want our story to be as believable as possible." She curtsied hurriedly and padded down the hall, disappearing quickly to do what she said she would.

Jack read over Ali's words. "Hmm... Well, I am a doctor. Simply stating that has gotten me out of more than a few predicaments. I'll just make it a priority not to muck this up, as I'm still not adequately familiar with your time. My, it feels so strange saying that." Jack pause for a moment but stopped himself from drifting into thought. "Rielle said she has a plan, so I'm sure she's simply counting on me not to say anything that would cause them to suspect the marriage is a ruse."

Rielle came back in, her appearance slightly different. Her blond hair was up in a ponytail and had straightened out; her blue eyes had become narrower, and she had added slight wrinkles at the corners; she wore a business-like black dress with pumps that made her appear taller. However, her warm, childish grin was still on her face. She handed Jack a small pile of papers and sat next to him. "Right, our marriage license is in there as well as a medical degree for you, since you are a doctor. Our names are Jack and Rielle turner. I am 27 and you are 28. We got married five years ago and because I am sterile, we decided to adopt Ali, who came to our doorstep. Can you remember all that?" She slipped a silver ring on her finger; it was in the shape of a snake coiled around her finger, its eyes a pair of gleaming rubies. "If not, I have the necessary tool to make them believe out story without us telling it."

Jack did some quick arithmetic in his head before answering "Got it. Like a steel trap." He said tapping his index finger against his brow. In doing so he realized he was still wearing his white gloves. Jack promptly removed them and slipped them into his jacket pocket.

Ali looked over as Rielle enetered the room again she did look different older and taller. Ali clapped his hands lightly he dug out a peice of paper with the Orphanage's phone number on. He stood up slowly and walked up to Reille handing her the peice of paper and making a phone gesture with his hand then pointing to the piece of paper.

Rielle nodded at Jack and then took the piece of paper from Ali, an old fashioned telephone appearing in her hands. She dialed the number for the orphanage and began speaking as soon as someone picked up. "Hello, my name is Rielle Turner and my husband and I have one of your orphans at our home. His name is Ali, and we intend to adopt him. If you could come by my home at [insert address here] with the papers, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you. Good-bye." She hung up without waiting for an answer and sat down, crossing her legs primly. "Now, all we have to do is wait."

((i'll play the social worker type person))

Anna sighed deeply as she stepped out of her car, she assesed the outside of the house first. The size of the garden how many floors the house had seeminglly unimportant things but it was part of the routine of the adoption process. She had to admit she was nervous for Ali, it took them a long time to get him fostered in the first place then he was returned five years later he was so heartbroken. People who met Ali were usually taken about by the way he acted and his strange choice of communication. She took in a breath and knocked on the door.

Ali jumped when the door knocked he gave a worried squeak and looked to the floor slowly rubbing his hands together nervously.

"Yes my name is Anna Richards, I'm Ali's social worker. I'm correct in thinking that you are wanting to adopt?" Anna explained as she stepped over the threshold closing the door behind her. Looking around the hallway she joted some notes down quickly.

Anna smiled shaking Jacks hand warmly "the pleasure is all mine Mr Turner. I'm very pleased that you are considering adopting Ali, he's a very special boy but you may have already noticed that" She spoke in a light airy voice with a warm smile. She turned to Ali and ruffled his hair playfully, Ali smiled lightly looking down at the carpet. "Obviously there are some questions that i need to ask you as part of the process, mainly about your backgrounds and a few about your home." She dug around in her pockets for a pen as she sat down in a chair. She turned to Ali "i'm sorry to ask you this Ali but do you have a pen the i can borrow to jot some thing down?" she asked softly. Ali nodded pulling out on of his pens from his bag making sure that it worked first he handed it too Anna. "Thankyou Ali" Anna replied taking the pen.

"So why is it that you would like to adopt Ali?" Anna asked turning to face both Rielle and Jack.

"Well, I don't know about Jack, but I want to adopt Ali because he is so sweet. Also, since I am sterile, we cannot have a child of our own, and taking in Ali would be like a dream come true." She smiled at Ali and then at Anna. "It would be such an honor if you would allow us to adopt him."

((Sorry it took me so long to reply! I had finals and didn't have time to get on here.))

(dont worry its fine i've had the same problems more or less)

" Well thats excellent news in itself, you two certainly have an intresting enough house to keep Ali happy. I will need to see proof of identification, a marriage certificate to make the signings official and correct" Anna said still smilling as she wrote some things down about the house, then notes about Jack and Rielle.
