Holmes looked calm. He went to his chemistry set. I heard bubbling as I stood there wondering what he was doing when he yelled
"Tea is done!" he yelled which was very odd at this point in time. I mean we had to investigate and he made tea?!
"Mr. Holmes, please lets investigate," I said persuasively.
"No not tonight," he answered while sitting down finishing his cup if tea.
He picked up his violin and closed his eyes. This time he was not playing
Beautifully, he was making a horrible screeching noise. I could tell he was deep thought. Watson retired yet again after the excitement. I just sat down. I started to write down facts.

This case was going to be hard. She defiantly killed her husband. But I tossed the thought aside and I folded the list. I went to sleep.
The next day talking awaked me. I herd Mr. Holmes, Dr. Watson, and a woman's voice. A knock came upon the door. I wanted to yell "Go Away!" But I was so lazy. Dr. Watson walked in with Bernard following.
"Annabelle wake up, get dressed and hurry about it," Said a hurried Watson.
"What?! It's five am why do I have to get up?" I asked covering my head with a pillow to shield my eyes from the light.
"Teenagers...." Watson sighed as he walked out the door.
I got dressed and walked into the den. The woman from the night before was now crying in the den. She didn't have the man with her. Watson stood listening closely and Bernard sat next to Watson's feet. I started to listen.
"Please Mr. Holmes you have to help me. My sister is trying to kill me," she sobbed
"I'm the real Sophia, she is not. She killed my husband! Please help me."
"We will help you but you must answer some questions," Holmes said slowly"
First what is you sister's name?"
"She's my twin, Scarlet McKaskill," she answered.
