Chapter Text
Eliza…
Once upon a time there was a beautiful young lady with golden hair and bright blue eyes. It was her dream to succeed as a private detective. Over time, business had begun to look up, more and more clients had started to roll in, and she was proud of her moderate success, and the fact that she was very good at her job.
Which was why she was now wondering, with not a small amount of surprise, at how she had ended up sitting in a massive puddle, with the rain heavily coming down on her.
She caught a glimpse of a scrap of paper at her side. With her heart pounding so hard she could practically hear it in her ears, she tentatively picked it up and read it.
Miss Scarlet, Let the games begin…
She gasped. It was the second note in two days that she had received. The first had been delivered by a messenger at her office. It had simply said,
Miss Scarlet, Let’s play a game…
Eliza sighed and struggled to stand in her sopping wet dress, What should I do next?

William…
William stood at his office window, watching the rain coming down. Lousy day. I’m actually glad for once to have paperwork to do. He went to his desk and sat down, pouring a whisky before starting.
He shuffled through the files, a small slip of paper slid out from between two of them and fell on the floor. Sighing, he leaned over to pick it up.
Inspector Wellington, Let’s play a game…
William read it and his eyes widened in surprise.
