13 years later...

Today was like any other previous days that the James Moriarty brothers had. Relaxing, carefree and successful...

For they commit yet another perfect crime.

After seeing Viscount Belfor die and sending off Mr. Burton and his wife, the three brothers left to go home. But as they walk to their carriage, they saw a woman being harassed by a drunk noblemen in a dark alley. The woman quietly pleaded to be left alone but the noble didn't bother to listen.

"Please my lord, don't do this..!" The woman begged in a timid voice. The man didn't answer and continue to rub her shoulders in a lustful manner. "Shut up wench, you were asking for it. who told you to seduce me back at the pub? You're basically inviting me to bed you."

"I was only serving the customers! I didn't seduce anybody!"

Silently watching the interaction, Albert frowned in disgust. "To do something like this when the sun hadn't even set just yet. Disgusting..."

"Shall I save her?" Louis suggested as he pulled out a pocket knife.

William nodded. "I'll be countng on-"

"Gaahhh!!" The nobleman from earlier gasped in surprise as the woman pushed him out from the alley. She was about run away if not for the man quickly grabbing her wrist tightly in rage.

"Ah! Please wait..!" The woman winced in pain when the nobleman continue to squeeze on her wrist.

"You damn bitch! How dare you harm a noble like me!!"

Louis gritted his teeth at the sight. "Brother, I will be going right now." Before Louis could get a few steps away from his spot, a graceful voice sounded right beside them.

"Wow, a drama started brewing this late?" The brothers look at the woman who owned the voice. From her clothes up to the way she carry herself, one could tell that this woman is a Noble.

Taking little steps towards the scene, she mumbled to herself, not caring if the brothers heard her or not. 

"Should I help her? Or not?"

Step.

"Should I help her?"

Step.

"Or not?" Then she stop walking. Only a few meters away from the harassing scene, she crouch down and picked up a pebble.

The noblewoman smirked and threw the pebble at the nobleman's head with great force.

"Gahh!!!!" He flinch away while cradling his painful head. Then all eyes went towards the Noblewoman who just naughtily smirk at the harasser. 

They were all surprised at the sudden changes in the events and couldn't help but watch the lady's next set of actions that leave them even more at awe.

"Oh sorry," The lady started. "I was just playing around with my rock that it accidentally slip away from me."

The man growled at her before shouting, gaining the attention of people nearby. "Bullshit! You literally threw that rock at me!! You lowly woman, you're clearly the type to fool around mindlessly, are you?!"

The lady raised her brow, "Yeah. I'm a mindless woman who do as she pleases..." A crowd is already forming around them but the nobles could careless about it. The noblewoman approach the man slowly then quietly said. "But for a drunk nobleman mindlessly harassing a powerless woman when the sun is still shining, a bastard like you is even more lowly than a woman like me..."
