                                              NEW YORK STREETS - JUNE 1903
                          Your secret has been found out.
                           “Ma’am, I’m going to need you to come with me.” The cop begins to drag you towards a horse-drawn car. 
                          You struggle and manage to break free of his grip, and run down the nearest alleyway. 
                          Imagine if you were wearing a dress and heels, you would have been caught in no time. 
                          The policeman bolts after you, but you are quicker. Agile. Nimble. Swift. 
                          You dart in and out of small streets, but you couldn’t go on forever, and if he caught you… you could lose your identity. He knew who you were, under the male exterior. You could lose Mildred. And you can’t let that happen. 
                          A new burst of speed propels you forward and you’ve lost him. Who knows what will happen to him now. But you did it. 
                          You can’t let that happen again.

                          A/N - whew our protagonist got away. Will it stay that way? What's going to happen next?
