Jade Moriaty's killer chick, was about the easiest person to find and follow. She never really did anything but work and sleep and when she wasn't doing either of those she was killing someone and it's not like I needed to be there for that. So after what Jade had said about Sherlock Holmes I felt like giving a visit to her older sister.
I found Myra holed up in her office in some undistinguishable building in the center of London. With my usual attitude I walked past the secretaries, falling asleep because of overtime, and sat myself down in front of Myra's wooden desk in her posh office. "Hello Ms. Holmes," I said with a smirk as I popped my feet up onto her desk. Myra was a tall, ginger, middle aged woman that always dressed like she was meeting a dignitary, which was always possible.
"Hello Sebrina," Myra said as she shuffled some official looking papers. "Unless you want the Yard to know you are back in town I would get out of my hair."
"Hey, I just wanted to talk," I said putting my hands up in defense.
"Yeah about my sister," she said typing on her computer.
"What about her?" I asked as I sat up and started to look threw the papers on her desk.
"Sebrina leave," Myra said grabbing the envelope out of my hand that I had picked up from her desk.
"But Myra, I just want to talk."
"About what, hm, do you want to talk about the fact that you are now a killer for hire, or how about the fact that you are sleeping with the most dangerous woman in London?" Myra quipped in a huff.
"My, I was curious about what the big deal was with your sister because she's starting to make a name for herself and in the past you never talked about your family," I said looking her trying to find the girl I had gone to college with.
"Sebrina, what makes you think that I would want to ever talk about my family?"
"I don't know," I said as she finally met my gaze. "I guess I wanted to know if you were still the girl I used to know."
"Well, am I?"
"No," I said as I stood up. "I hope this will be the last you see of me."
"I'll just casually forget to mention you are back," she said as she looked back to her computer. "Please close the door on the way out."
As I walked out of her office I remembered the last time I had left her. We were in college both studying law when I had told her that I wanted to go into the military. She didn't talk to me for days. Myra said it was too dangerous and I would get killed but honestly I didn't care at that point and I think that was what made her dislike of me finally stick. She was always a rational girl and dating me was the craziest thing she had ever done, it was no small wonder when she broke it off. We went our separate ways, she went on to government and I learned medicine on a full ride from the army, it all worked out.
Once I was on the street I notice a familiar figure standing on the street. "Hello Jade, for what reason do I have the pleasure?" I asked as I stuck my hands in the pockets of my coat.
"Your charge is getting sloppy," she said walking up next to me.
"I thought as much," I sighed into the cold night air.
"What were you doing here?"
"I was checking up on an old tie," I said as we started to walk down the street. "Don't worry it's very broken by now."
"So you knew Myra?" Jade inquired.
"Yeah we dated once but it's over and done," I said looking over to her. Her small thin frame was encased in a big fluffy jacket. "Do you know her?"
"Well… kind of. We both know of each other but I don't think we need to get entangled."
"Good, because you two crossing paths wouldn't end well," I said. I stopped walking, wrapped me arms around her small frame, and kissed her lightly on the forehead, "I don't want to lose you."
"You never will," she reassured me with a slow loving kiss.
