It was about ten forty-five in the morning on Tuesday. Evie was looking out through the small train window. She noticed the trees nearby that disappeared from the panorama and the valleys in the background that seemed to want to stay. She was standing with her hair down and her white nightgown. He looked at Henry, who was still asleep, with no London in sight. Evie chose not to wake him yet.

Now dressed, Evie decides to pay a short visit to Agnes who had not slept that night but remained tough enough to finish the trip in good condition.

"Good morning Agnes."

"Good morning Miss Frye. Did you sleep well?"

"Yes, as always. How are we, still far away?"

"No, Miss Frye, very close. We are about fifteen minutes from London. We will arrive in the blink of an eye. Are you looking forward to returning?"

"Yes. I am about to see my brother's work." Evie said in a slightly ironic tone.

After about half an hour, Bertha, the big train, bursts through the gray clouds of steam from the other trains at London's big train station. Henry, who had already woken up, was packing his papers and books in boxes alone, on the other hand, Evie was sitting with her eyes fixed on the window, when she feels the train slowing down she starts looking for Jacob. Her smile does not fool anyone, in less than ten seconds, she finds that unmistakable expression on his face, with the master assassin wearing the insignia on the left side of his coat collar and the typical high-top hat, he was proud of himself and eager to show his sister the fruits of his work during his absence, fruits that were right behind him when Evie joined the four young apprentices. She couldn't help but see the different and obvious personalities. Juliet, in the corner on the right side was straight and right with her hands behind her back and one foot in front and the other behind, Genevieve grabbed her left arm with the hand of her right arm, her feet were the same as Juliet's but somewhat more relaxed, and she smiled. McGee had a sturdy posture, he was straight with his arms outstretched and his feet hip-width apart. Byron was the most disconcerted of all, with his hands in his coat pockets and his legs spread apart. Only Jack was not at the station. The train stops. Evie looks at Henry.

"Do you need help?"

"No Evie, I do this alone, don't worry, go to your brother. I'll be there too." Evie smiles, kisses Henry, who has two books in his hands, and drives to the exit door. She opens it and looks at her smiling brother.

"Good morning Jacob." descends getting ahead of your brother.

"Good morning dear sister." The two look at each other and smile:

"You look different." Still smiling:

"As for you, you're still the same." Evie keeps her eyes fixed on her brother and then looks at the space around her.

"I see that London is intact." And she looks back at Jacob.

"You entrusted me with that task, didn't you, sis?"

"Yes, and I see that this was not the only one." Evie looks at the beginners. "Aren't you going to introduce me to your students?" Evie chose the word unreasonably to sting Jacob who looks back when his sister speaks.

"But of course." Jacob takes two steps, standing beside Juliet but still away from his beginners. He extends his arm to each of them when he introduces them.

"This is Juliet O'Halloran." Juliet lowers her head and raises it again. "Genevieve Curtis." Genevieve performs an elegant bow as the ladies do. "Marcus McGee." McGee does the same thing as Juliet except in his nervous way as usual. "And Byron Parkins." Byron, as expected, with his legs still apart, opens his hands, but still with them in his coat pockets, and lowers his head. Evie with crossed arms smiled.
