Author's notes: Yeah, it could happen. *snicker* Just keep in mind that the Gunmen would not necessarily reveal everything that they know about Yves to a television audience, nor would they be above embellishing some of the events in All About Yves to gloss over the fact that most of their actions - and Yves' - were not entirely lawful. This fic takes place *before* the events of Jump the Shark but uses some information presented in that episode. Dedicated to those of you who know and love and are highly addicted to Unsolved Mysteries. The Disappearance of Yves: An Unsolved Mysteries Segment by Martha marthalgm@yahoo.com (cue intro music) (flash place card - Missing Persons) (The scene opens in a darkened alley lined with metal fencing and with one dimly lit street lamp. The host, Robert Stack, dressed in his signature trenchcoat, walks into the spotlight.) STACK Late one spring evening, a young woman is kidnapped, driven away into the dark of night and never to be heard from again. Her name is Yves Adele Harlow and, at the time of her disappearance, she was gathering information on a company that has since ceased operations. Three of her colleagues, witnesses to the kidnapping, are still searching for her one year almost to the day after they last saw her. Why was she taken, and where did she go? (cue film of John F Byers, in a low-lit room so that only the outline of his upper body is distinguishable with his face masked by the darkness. The legend identifies him only as `B', and his voice has been slightly altered.) BYERS We were following up on a lead we'd been given about The Fenix Atlantic Corporation in Washington, DC. We had been told that there were a number of items stored at their headquarters that had been reported as stolen from several other companies. (cue film of Robert Stack, still in the alley) STACK The three witnesses have come forward in the hope that telling their story will lead to clues of the woman's whereabouts. They have asked Unsolved Mysteries not to show their faces or to reveal their identities due to the nature of their investigative work. (cue film of Melvin Frohike, lit and disguised in the same manner as Byers, and identified only as `F') FROHIKE Our initial inquiries into Fenix Atlantic turned up some suspicious activity, and the complete lack of information on their Securities and Exchange Commission filings raised a lot of eyebrows as to what their actual purpose was. We still don't know what they really did to this day. (cue film of Ringo Langly, also lit and disguised as the other two and identified as `L') LANGLY They've got a heavy-duty security system for a really old building. Kind of makes you wonder what they've got to hide there. So we went in to ask some questions. Imagine our surprise to find that not only was Yves there, but she was there against her will, being held by some guy with his own personal SWAT team. (cue grainy photograph of Morris Fletcher) STACK She was last seen by these witnesses in the company of this man. His name is Morris Fletcher. (cue B) BYERS Morris Fletcher works for the federal government. His last assignment was at Groom Lake, Nevada, a place more commonly known as Area 51. We know that he dealt with national security issues and had access to top-secret records, but what any of this has to do with Yves we have not been able to uncover. (cue F) FROHIKE There was some sort of communication going on between Fenix Atlantic and Morris Fletcher behind the scenes, that much we know. And from what we've been able to find out over the past months, it appears that Yves was to go to the Fenix headquarters to discuss acquiring some new merchandise, but she had been lured there under false pretenses by Fletcher. (cue L) LANGLY Yves lives in the fast lane. She likes to go after some new gadget on the market and then sell it to the highest bidder. The only thing that we can figure is that she had something that Fletcher wanted - or had acquired something from Fletcher that he wanted back - and that's why he kidnapped her. (cue to film of Robert Stack, now in daylight, standing in front of the abandoned headquarters of Fenix Atlantic) STACK Repeated requests for information from the federal government about this individual have gone unanswered, and a review of public records finds no Morris Fletcher listed in the state of Nevada. He, too, appears to have vanished. (cue L) LANGLY We haven't been able to connect Fletcher to this Fenix Atlantic Corporation or to find out why the Feds would be interested in that company in the first place. For all we know, Yves could have been working for Fenix and Fletcher grabbed her when she wouldn't give him what he wanted. (cue Robert Stack) STACK Although there have been several reported sightings of Yves in various European cities, none of the local law enforcement there can specifically verify that the person seen is Yves Adele Harlow. State Department records show no use of a US passport in her name. Is it possible that she is free of her captors, traveling under another name, and is no longer in danger? (cue F) FROHIKE We have a colleague who's been doing the legwork overseas for us. Every time he gets a new lead as to where she is and he follows it, Yves - or whoever it was - is already long gone. We've expended a lot of money following these tracks, trying to find out if it's her or someone who wants us to *think* that it's her and that she's just carrying on with business as usual. The thing that doesn't make any sense is that she hasn't tried to contact us in almost a year, and I would bet my last dollar that, if she felt safe, she'd let us know that she was all right. (cue B) BYERS We've done some work with Yves in the year before she disappeared and have relied on each other's resources. She was taken captive *right in front of us*. If she were alive and free, she would let us know that she was okay. I know that in the bottom of my heart. She still has to be on the run, in fear of her safety. (cue to grainy picture of Yves, taken from the camera at the front entrance of The Lone Gunmen headquarters) STACK Yves Adele Harlow is approximately five foot six inches in height and weighs about one hundred and five pounds. She has long curly black hair, brown eyes, and speaks with an English accent. She has been known to completely disguise her appearance and speech patterns, and, we are told, she does have one particular quirk. (cue F) FROHIKE Yves Adele Harlow is not her real name, but it is the name she most often uses. That name is an anagram of Lee Harvey Oswald, and all of her other aliases are anagrams of that name as well. She's a stickler for it. We usually find out where she's been after the fact, if we look for variations of that name. But lately, we haven't had any luck with that system. (cue Robert Stack) STACK If you have any information on the whereabouts of Yves Adele Harlow, you are asked to contact the Metro Police Department of Washington DC or call our toll-free hotline at 1-800-876- 5363.
