Scotland yard, hallway
Xavier and Sherrinford was walking their way towards the exit when a unexpected man bumped into them.
The man smiles and told Xavier, "well inspector Xavier, I didn't know you met my brother long before I introduce him to you!"
Xavier, confused and asked the man; "sorry chief inspector, but your brother?"
--"yeah! Didn't he introduce himself? He's Sherrinford Radcliffe! My dear little brother always run off and annoys people, doesn't he?"
Xavier looked slowly at Sherrinford and asked him; "your brother is the chief inspector?"
Sherrinford looked away and shouted; "I told you not to call me your brother in public, Jonathan!"
The chief inspector replies "oh my this is no public, Shery, it's just between you, me and Mr. Xavier! Our father is very concerned you know. He doesn't know your wearabout and he's planning on visiting this weekend."
Xavier interrupts and asked the chief inspector; "sir, if I remember correctly, your father is from the military right? A general, to be precise! One of the heroes that fought in Afghanistan that has the nickname of "the hound of britain".
Sherrinford arrogantly told Xavier that;
"My father just became a general and earned his boring title because of his leadership, nothing else."
The chief inspector laughs and Xavier was surprised with his attitude towards his father. The chief inspector take his leave and the duo begun arguing about "attitude" and "respect".
Sherrinford had enough and told Xavier that they should hurry at Rakkan's house before some crooks capture him. Xavier agreed.
Streets of Whitechapel, London.
Sherrinford told Xavier that he should forget all about his affiliation with Jonathan. Which Xavier heavily disagree, telling him that his manner is nowhere near to be reckon. They have arrived at the house of Rakkan.
They knocked cautiously.
No one answered, so Xavier knock again. This time, it opened. a woman shows up, to Xavier's surprise, he was too numb to speak. So Sherrinford asked her regarding Rakkan, and she answered;
"What do you want with Rakkan?"
Sherrinford smiles and told her;
"I'm sherry, and this is Xavy, we are both Rakkan's friends!"
The woman smiled and opened the door. Unlocked all of locks and let the two in.
The woman appeared to be Rakkan's mother.
Xavier asked about Rakkan's current job and she told them;
"He works as a delivery boy and a cab driver, he's a very hard working man! When he got come, he always brings pounds of silver and gold coins."
While they're chatting, a man entered the house, it was Rakkan. The young boy got surprise and tries to flee but Sherrinford manage to grab his hands. He pulled him and look at him in the eye, telling him;
"Rakkan, I wanna ask you some questions, would you mind?"
In a terrified look, he shouted; "if anything about Laura, then I won't speak!" Sherrinford lift his shirt up and was ready to punch him, but his mother came between them and stopped Sherrinford.
Both are ready and clear their minds off, Sherrinford apologies to Rakkan and his mother. Xavier get straight to the point and asked Rakkan;
"What's your affiliation with Laura smith? Why did y-"
Rakkan interrupts, "I just met her before she died, she gave me some sort of a file that I don't even know what is it all about."
Xavier begs for the file and Rakkan gave it to them, he treathens the two of them that he'll kill them if they attack his mother again. Xavier and Sherrinford left the house.
Xavier looked at the file and saw nothing. He saw only a sheet of paper that says "YOU.ARE.DEAD." Sherrinford didn't believe that Rakkan gave the real one so they knock again. But this time, Rakkan shouted at them by saying;
"i am tired with these flaws! That's the only information Laura smith gave me!"
Sherrinford got a snap out of his head after hearing his words, Xavier asked him the matter but Sherrinford simply nodded. Sherrinford then told Xavier to deliver it to his brother immediately.
Now, from the shadows, a man smirks and ran the opposite of Xavier and Sherrinford's direction.
