Liam and Sherlock make it to where Edith worked.
"Have you any sense what time it is?" Edith asks, spotting the two.
The two men turn to her.
"Hello Edith." Sherlock says.
"You're lucky. I almost broke you legs." Edith tells him. "Then I recognised the shoulders. You have very recognizable shoulders."
"Lilli's been arrested." Liam blurts out.
"For why?" Edith asks.
"Murder." Sherlock answers.
"What she and Enola have got tangled with, my go wider than we thought." Liam explains.
"And there's something about this case that..." Sherlock starts.
"Deduction alone will not solve?" Edith asks.
"We may need your... we may need your help." Liam admits.
"Well, like my mother always said, those who can turn to others when they're in need are the truly brave amongst us." Edith says.
"Your mother sounds very different to mine." Sherlock says.
"We did try to stop her, but she's full of this fight." Liam says.
"You can't control Lilli Wilson. She's a force of nature, a law into herself." Edith says. "Just like Enola."
"Yes, they are." Sherlock agrees. "And I fear she will hang."
Edith looks at the two men before the door opens. The three of them turn to see Enola and Tewkesbury stood there.
"Enola?" Sherlock questions.
"Tewkesbury." Liam says.
"We've got a problem." Enola says.
"Lilli's been arrested. We know." Sherlock says.
"Okay, plan of action. Me and Enola go break Lilli out of jail. I know the perfect person who can help us. She's actually waiting outside. Meanwhile, you boys, try and figure out what's going on with this Sarah Chapman girl." Edith says.
"How do you know about Sarah Chapman?" Enola asks.
"I know more then you think I do." Edith says. "Now come on."Enola and Edith walk out to a carriage. Edith gets up onto the seat to drive while Enola goes inside. She was shocked by who she saw already sat there.
"'Tis I." Eudoria says. Enola smiles rushing to sit next to her mother as they hug. "Oh, it is good to see you."
Before long they were off on their way to the jail.__________
Lilli was in the courtyard, walking in a circle with the other girls. All of a sudden a girl pushes her into the middle.
"There we go. Finally." A guard says, as the girls continue to circle Lilli, slowly closing in. "Go easy on her, girls."
Lilli scoffs slightly at the last comment.
The girls stop circling her, but stand still in a circle. Lilli gets ready to fight, but the girls just cover their eyes. Lilli looks at them confused before doing the same. All of a sudden there was a explosion. All the girls run towards the new hole in the wall. Lilli was at the back, and just as she was about to get out, the guards grab her.
"No!" Lilli screams, trying to fight them off. That's when she sees Enola, Eudoria and Edith waiting for her. "Go!"
Lilli sees the three of them take off, before she gets dragged back inside by the guards."Trying to escape, were we?" Grail asks, standing infront of Lilli who was sat on the cell bench.
"I had nothing to do with the explosion." Lilli replies.
"Really? We spotted your friend Enola and her mother. We followed them, but lost them." Grail says.
"That's Enola and her mother for you." Lilli says, unbothered.
"Don't think they'll be coming back for you. If they were smart they would stay as far away as possible now." Grail says.
"Well, Grail. Can I call you, Grail? I'm going to call you it anyway. Grail, Enola and her mother are smart. But that's not how they play. Once they get their mind set on something nothing is going to stop them. If they want to get me ot of here. They will." Lilli says.
"Will see about that, Miss Wilson. We'll see." Grail says with a smirk, before leaving the cell.__________
After getting away from the officers and leaving her mom and Edith, Enola goes to get Bessie.
"I need you to pack your things. I need you to be in a safer place." Enola tells the young girl.
"Is... Is my sister gone?" Bessie asks. "Like Mae?"
"No." Enola says.
"Is she-" Bessie starts.
"No." Enola cuts her off. "I'm sure she's alright. I'm closer to finding her."
"Doris, she'll take me in. She's got a spare bed now." Bessie says, starting to pack.
"Her sister?" Enola asks.
"Dead. Typhus." Bessie says.
"Dead." Enola says, looking at the plants before walking over, taking a closer look. "There's traces of something in this soil. One has red, and one has white in it. The matches you make, when did they change from red to white?"
"I dunno. Around two years ago." Bessie says.
After putting two and two together Enola realised it was the stuff they used to make the matches white that were leading to the girls getting Typhus.
"When i said a safter place to stay. I meant with me. I'll drop you off with mine and Lilli's brothers while I go talk to a friend." Enola tells Bessie.
"Really?" Bessie asks.
"It's the least I can do, as I have so far been unsuccessful in finding your sister." Enola says.
"Thank you." Bessie says, hugging Enola.
"No problem." Enola says, hugging her back. "Now, let's get you packed and out of here."
