Elsey walks into the local bar, The Tricky Mister, and asks her old buddy Cyrus to pour her a drink.
"Something girly," she asks him. "Something the boys will laugh at."
She smiles and looks around the room. She thinks about who else might walk into the room tonight. She turns back to her girly drink and waits for Sir James to arrive, as he undoubtedly will at some point.
Just then, the front door opens and in walks....

bounds out from behind a tree where she had been hiding and throws herself at Makensie.

"Oh you're alright!!" She gasps. "I thought those Piranhas had done for you! There was such a lot of blood!

"I set fire to the bar! I didn't mean to; someone left a cigarette in an ashtray and I dropped some alcohol on it!

Pulling herself together, she stands straighter. "I promise to rebuild this bar, as good as new!" She declares. My agency has some savings, we can afford a few million to make the place a palace! Shady can have his own offices......"

*A Few Months Later...*

*The sun is shining, glinting off two huge picture windows fronting a modern airy building. The building looks delicate (and expensive) but a closer look will reveal the 2" safety glass, the wire mesh embedded in the walls and doors to prevent piranha related attacks and the team of bloodhounds roaming around the grounds. The double doors to the Tricky Mister (for it is, of course, the rebuilt bar) have a number of signs and posters on them. Pride of place is given to the liquor licence, awarded to one Cyrus Tibby, landlord and Order of Socrates Initiate.

Slightly more sinister is a "Wanted for Questioning" list, featuring a number of sleuths who seem to have slipped away in the Great Fire and the subsequent months. Topping the list is The Mad One. The cops are quite interested in his devices and chocolate experiments. If the loyal sleuths in the bar know where he is, they're keeping quiet...

Three girls are sitting in the sun outside the pub, girly drinks infront of them, chatting idly about old times. The wide brimmed hat sported by one of them is keeping the sun off her and the table. The second has a thin scar running across her throat, and the third is idly stroking a daft looking dog with Snuffles on his name tag. It is a picture of calm and contentment.

What could possibly ruin such an idyllic setting.....?

.....The Mad One. He sneaks quietly in through the side door and is intercepted by a bouncer. He ducks the fast moving cricket ball and proceeds to the bar for a drink. Cyrus points at the sign that says "Please check your weird scientific experiments at the hat check counter. The Mad One grumbles and walks over to the counter where he empties his pockets, twice. Cyrus says "I thought you were arrested and held for questioning".
The Mad one replies, "Yes, but they had to let me go after I ate the evidence. The nice policemen kept bursting into tears while they questioned me. In the end they had to let me go while all the policemen got therapy. How about a beer?"
Cyrus serves The Mad One and sneaks off to phone the police.
The Mad One walks over to the table where the young ladies are sitting when the door opens and........

in walks Makensie,checking out the newly built bar. "Wow", gleams Makensie, "this place looks GREAT!"

Makensie orders a drink and goes outside on the new patio and finds a table, and watches the bloodhounds running around, as one comes up for her to pet. Makensie stares off into space remembering a furry friend of hers that passed away, as she pets the bloodhound, and sips her drink.

Once again, the door opens, and.....

Larina Rhodes decides to enter. She slips into the bar looking around.
"This place looks a whole lot better" she says taking a seat.

*Lady Grey gracefully glides through the entrance and orders a Very Large Pink Gin for herself and a drink for the newest recruit to Behind Closed Doors*
*She remarks soto voce to Makensie, "Remember, no dancing on the tables"*
*Spotting her brother she grabs him by the ear and drags him to a corner wher he can't get into trouble*
*The Mad One grumbles but allows his sister to bully him into behaving himself*
Meanwhile outside a car screeches to a halt outside and.......

Makensie. Larina and Lady Grey move closer to Makensie in case the man begins to threaten her or anything.

Makensie is looking at this man, and having no clue who this guy is. She sees Larina and Lady Grey walking over to help me if needed, and Makensie is just having a bad day so she doesnt really give a care what she says , so she says in a very stern voice to this man, "WHO in the WORLD are YOU? I have no friggin CLUE to who you are,so I know I didn't do anything wrong." Makensie puts her hand on her Dragon fan,and finds the button that sends fire out when pushed. (and they thought this fan was just to look charming hehe)

Larina and Lady Grey are no standing beside Makensie,and they are all trying to figure out who this man is.

He continues walking in their direction, saying....

"It's you, Makensie Brewer it's you fault my son can't walk anymore, you made them break his legs when he tried to get her" he points at Larina. LArina recongizes this rough looking man to be her father. He pulls out a gun and points it at Makensie.
"I'll make you pay" and then...
