Alanna exited the room now in a pink dress with a pink bow in her hair wearing white gloves. Once she walked into the room and saw that her husband was no longer there "Sherlock?" Alanna called

Alanna heard nothing so she decided to look around more "Sherlock? Sherlock if this is some kind of joke of yours, it's not very funny."  Alanna said and then she entered his Study

Sherlock was there staring at his board not saying a word, all he did was tilt his head in confusion "Sherlock?" Alanna called touching his shoulder , and Sherlock jumped.

"Alanna." Sherlock said in relief "What's wrong with you?" Alanna questioned "Nothing. Just this case. It's rather confusing to me." Sherlock told "Well maybe, if you let me help it wouldn't be confusing." Alanna said and Sherlock rolled his eyes

"I'm not going to let you help, it's too dangerous, and I'm not putting my wife-" before Sherlock could finish that sentence there was a knock on the window

Sherlock and Alanna both looked at the window and say Enola dressed as a boy. The couple furrowed their brows and looked at each other, then looking back at the window "Could you let me in please?" Enola asked

Alanna rushed to the window and then there was a knock at the door "That might be Lestrade." Enola said "Enola?" Alanna questioned "Is there anywhere to hide?" Enola questioned as Sherlock went to get the door

Alanna rolled her eyes and lifted up the board "Hide, quick." Alanna whispered. Enola went in at the hole shaped as a square in the wall and Alanna pulled the board back down and heading to the door with Sherlock

"Ah, Lestrade of Scotland Yard. You remember me, I hope." Lestrade smiled and Sherlock furrowed his brows at the man, Alanna appearing at Sherlock's side "Miss Alexander, pleasure to see you." Lestrade greeted "Pleasure to see you too, but it's Mrs. Holmes now." Alanna smiled

"Oh, We're looking for your sister. She's caused a bit of trouble." Lestrade told "May I?" Lestrade asked to come in and Sherlock and Alanna allowed. Sherlock closed the door and Lestrade gasped looking at the smoking pipe "Is it, sir? Is it?"

"Take it. I have others." Sherlock told him "Take it? I can't. I can't. Perhaps I can." Lestrade said sighing picking the smoking pipe up "And this, the famous fiddle?" Lestrade questioned heading towards the fiddle "That I do not have two of." Sherlock said

"Perhaps you can explain what you believe Enola has done." Alanna spoke "I wish I was at liberty to say, ma'am. Do you mind?" Pointing at Sherlock's study already walking there. Alanna and Sherlock looked at each other with a confused look heading towards the study

"Oh, your latest case. What's it concerning? Is it another Brixton Strangler? Or a Periwinkle? Don't tell me it's a Clerkenwell." Lestrade questioned as Sherlock poured a glass of rum

"What evidence do they have against my sister?" Sherlock asked growing impatient "Perhaps, uh, you tell me yours and I'll tell you mine." Lestrade said

Sherlock furrowed his brows once again and sucked his teeth "Government case, some missing money. Now you." Sherlock said

"Super wants to talk to her. That's all." Lestrade told "Why?" Alanna asked "Just following orders, Mrs. Holmes. Or May I call you Alanna? And you Mr. Holmes, Sherlock?" Lestrade questioned. Alanna and Sherlock gave him a blank stare, looked at each other and both headed towards the door Lestrade following
