 		[TRAILHEAD] AIXO 2881
The AIXO 2881 Automatic Space and Time Portal Device (Now Coming to A Time Near You)!
Just recieved a message from hickorydickoryinc. Apparently the two brothers Isaac and Edward have invented the perfct solution to anyone wanting to see their futures without Ms. Cleo..

Currently interacting with a character, some grammatical/spelling errors on the webpage but I'll chalk that up to hurriedness. We'll see where this goes.

Hickory Dickory Inc

Also, there's a mention of a "transcript page" on the News section, followed by a comment by someone going by "timecop"..

Interesting.

also that timecop has a freeweb which talks about the AXIO 2881

the above translates to this

 		Wow.
I'd hate to add yet another ARG to my already-a-little-too-long list of complex ARGs....but this may just be too good to pass up.
Gotta love how it says "founded in 2009." Apparently this groundbreaking Space/Time portal device has been tested already....

I'm the Running Mouse. I managed to hack HDInc's stupid pages and put in this message- If they find it, my goose is cooked. I'm not sure what to write here, but the AIXO is mine, not HDInc's. Seriously. Find my page and live a little. Remember: Moonfruit. Simple enough if you know what it is.

 		Running Mouse's Page:
Quote:
I am the Running Mouse.

I have been running since time and space begain, I'm attempting to find a little help...

I can't say much here. It's not that the people chasing me would even think about looking online, because that's how dumb they are, but I simply don't have enough time. And I've never been talkative.

You think you can help me?

Well, find my device and bring it to me. Yeah. It's the AIXO 2881 Automatic Space and Time Portal Device (Now Coming to A Time Near You) (TM).

It's the only link I have to my time, and I think it's been stolen. I know, I know, my fault. It's been stolen by Hickory Dickory Inc. I dunno what they want with it.

You can IM me at findrunningmouse. If you want.

It's only the future of time that's at stake, after all...


And I bet you're wondering what you can do, after all. I mean, you guys are a bunch of civilians, right?

Well... Hickory Dickory Inc. is holding my precious AIXO ransom. And I'm stuck in the 21st century. Sucky, right? I just need any help at all.

Wow. Dramatic yet?
I'm trying to find him on all IM sites-- YIM, Skype are the only ones I have. Someone wanna try AIM/MSN?

 		Updates
Very interesting.

According to a conversation I just had with Isaac, as well as information gathered from the Hickory Dickory Inc. website as well as the TimeCops website, they're currently in the process of marketing their product and convincing authorities in the business world that their product actually works.

From what I can tell, Isaac and Edward may have stolen a time machine from a so-called "Time Cop" by the alias of "Running Mouse" and are attempting to reproduce and market it as a product. This may leave Running Mouse stranded in our time and would explain why the brothers are looking for him - perhaps to eliminate him and ensure that he doesn't get back to the future.

Running Mouse's blog, found on the Time Cops' member's section, leads to another AIM username.

I'm talking to him now.

 		Albany, what are you using?
I messaged him on Skype and he's not responding.

And of course Isaac doesn't. He stole RM's machine. I dont trust him...

He does.

[15:35] ecolifornia: I see. Well, I'll respect your right to privacy. How about something a little more light-hearted.. perhaps a clue to this contest? I wonder who Running Mouse is..
[15:37] isaacdickory: Running Mouse is... a future agent of our police force. We've been trying to find him for quite a while, and to be frank, we actually don't have much of a lead on things.
[15:37] isaacdickory: Although I should probably talk to Edward about that prize...
[15:38] ecolifornia: Wait, he's missing? I thought it was more of just a puzzle to promote your new product. Speaking of police forces, you might check the comment on your news post..
[15:38] isaacdickory: He's in on-and-off contact, you might say.

Hm... I'm going to check that comment, hang on.
