The meeting with Pevensy had gone better than expected, the Lord had appeared pleased with the teams results and had even commented that any attention from the London Constabulary would be well and truly directed from J.P.s activities.
Lord Reynolds had immediately started his own line of enquiry into the location of Doctor Sullivan Bennet, the inventor of the device, along the thought processes that he might well have began production of the machine, something Reynold's was less than keen on.
For Von Staffenburg's part he felt a score was to be settled with the Crime Lord Brom and had already vocally suggested that they start to know thy enemy, J.P had not been disagreeable to this as Brom's men had roughed him up and after all he had a reputation to maintain.
Wouldn't be good for any West End scum to learn that he had been bested, Criminal honour needed to be served.
However matters needed to be attended to, no point building a small but florishing enterprise on Shaftsbury Avenue if he wasn't going to keep an eye on it and with that he had Sam drop him off.
Location: The Shaftesbury Public House, Shaftesbury Avenue, The Captials West End.
Upon arriving back at the Shaftesbury the news that greeted him was possibly the worst he could have received, Lily had been found murdered.
Kat was both furious with him but relieved to see him, his silence and their inability to find him had made them fear the worst for him.
In the dingy upstairs bedroom above the pub, J.P looked at the angelic, blue face of Lily, her elfin face surrounded by dirty blonde curls, looking peaceful in her sleep the mar upon her were the angry red marks around her throat.
J.P felt sick, his mind spun, although that could well have been the fact he'd smacked his head no less than three times on the black tudor roof beams, which deviously hid among the also dark wood ceiling.
