Day: 4
Jacob's condition, no matter what they did , was still getting worse. In fact, today he was getting even more symptoms: vomiting, dehydration, low blood pressure.
His seizures were getting worse whenever he would have a high fever.Evie was getting worried. She watched her brother as he slept on the hospital bed, wondering what the hell was going on. Jacob was asleep right now. He was still pale and his wound wasn't healing well enough. They had to always clean it to prevent infection.
Henry took over some of the research and looked for any other shipments that stored a unique poison or capsule. Eventually he found a lead, one that led to an underground storehouse. He took this information and headed to get Evie. Once he arrived he gently knocked on the door of the hospital room.
"C..come in" Came Evie's tired voice.
Henry walked in with a light smile on his face,but a feirceness in his eyes. "I have found a lead" he said handing her the notes he found. "There's an abandoned storehouse near Westminster that we might want to look into" he said
"But why? Didn't you just say it was abandoned?" She asked
"I did. But I found a recent letter that was sent to that location. So someone is using it" he said to her.Evie thought about that for a long moment before standing up. "Alright. Well let's go see what that is all about then" she said walking out, her fists closed tightly as she headed outside. Westminster was not too far from here so Evie used her grapple gun and got to the roofs to run to the location. Henry followed suit, staying close to her as they ran.
They made it to an abandoned building. Evie stepped inside without hesitation. She began to look around for clues. As she was looking Henry shouted from upstairs "I found something!"
Quickly, Evie ran upstairs and to Henry. "What did you find?" She asked him.
"This" he handed her the letter. "Its addressed to a Templar named Sherwin Black." He said to her.
"Well then. First let's find the entrance to the storehouse" she said to him. She then began to look around for anything that could unlock, or be, a door.After 30 minutes of searching, she found an unsual floorboard that, when she tapped with her foot, sounded hollow. Immediately she knelt down and tried to pry the board open. It sprang open, a ladder led down to the room below. "Henry I found something!" She said to him.
He walked over and looked at the entrance. "Well then, Miss Frye, shall we go in?" He asked her.
"Indeed we shall, Mr. Green" she said as she climbed down into the room below.Once inside she lit a torch that was on the wall. She saw boxes and boxes of supplies, all witch had a skull painted on them. "Well we found where the poison is being stored" she said looking at them with angry eyes. "Let's see to it that its never used." She said. "But first" Evie walked over and pryed open one of the crates, grabbing one of the viles of poison then sealing it shut. She then grabbwd the torch from the wall and tossed it at the boxes. They lit up quickly causing a fire that would destroy it all. Quickly, the two climbed out, closing the hatch and covering it back up. Evie pretended to dust off her hands "well now that's taken care off" she said with a smile. "Come on. Let's go meat this Mr. Black" she said walking out of the building.
Henry just looked at her and then chuckled, shaking his head. "Just like her brother" he muttered chuckling as they headed out of the building with her. They now had a lead.But before they would go find this Mr. Black, they headed back to the hospital. Evie found Nightingale. She was talking with one of the nurses. Evie approached her with a smile. "Mrs. Nightingale?" She said walking to her.
"Why hello, Miss Frye. What is it you want?" She asked her.
Smiling, Evie grabbed the vile from her pocket. "I need you to help me find out what this is. It's the poison, but maybe we can find out how to treat Jacob" Evie said to her.
"I'll see what I can do, Miss." Nightingale said nodding. She carefully took the vile from Evie and walked off twords her office.Evie then headed back to Henry, who was waiting outside in the carriage. "Off to see Mr. Black then?" Henry asked her.
"Indeed, let's 'ask' a few Templars where he could be" Evie said smirking.
"And 'ask' we shall, Evie" Henry said with a chuckle.
The two headed out into the city. They had a lot of searching ahead of them , but as long as Jacob was okay for now, they still had time.....
