The girl's head came off with one swift motion, Marcus picked it up and tossed it at Throne, he then lifted the body and hurried off. The rain still came down and the wind still blew wildly. "The bloke couldn't have gotten far! I'll try to head him off!” He was already running back to the street when he heard a very faint chuckle, his rifle was already in his hands, the butt just below his right shoulder, he scanned the area, then moved onto rooftops. He saw a figure, but it was gone too quickly. His dash picked up again.

“Ah,” The cabby was still there, “didn’ find who ya was lookin’ for, did ya?”

“Perhaps,” William climbed into the cab, his deeper voice trumping that of the cabby,”Take me down that street,” He pointed to the one that ran along the building he saw the figure on, “With haste!” The cabby whipped the horse and it shot off down the street bringing the carriage with it.

The street was empty save a few folk hurrying home, “Turn there!” it was an alley that opened up into another street, the other street was near identical to the last. The horse’s hooves clopped against the cobblestone street madly as it dashed from street to alley to street again. This had gone on for some time, “Turn down that alley!” the cabby pulled on the reins, “I think I just saw him.” Hadley said as he redid his rifle, “There!” he whispered to himself. A figure was at the end getting ready to climb the ladder, there were a few bloody hand-prints on the alley walls.

The horse stopped at the entrance to the alley, William took aim with his rifle, “Keep it steady.” he told the cabby. As his finger pulled the trigger the horse was spooked and began jerking around, moving the entire carriage and causing Hadley to miss the shot and fall out of the cab.

“Dammit man! I said to keep it steady!” He'd picked himself up and whipped around to see if he could still make the shot, but who seemed to be the Whitechapel Murderer was gone. “Blast.” William climbed into the cab and gave the man an address to take him to that was near the church.
“That’d be four quid sir.” The cabby was glad to get paid and be done with Hadley. Hadley paid him and began walking toward the church to meet with the others.

The night sky wasn't as much sky as it was clouds, it was London after all, rain and cold were strangers to no one in the city. Lightning arched across the sky, or clouds rather, then the rain started. It fell heavily hitting the cobblestone streets, making more noise than it was warranted, the wind cause large waves to smash against the walls surrounding the Thames. The wind blew the rain in a sideways torrent, not long after it had began to fall.

"Cabby!" He put his fingers to his mouth and whistled, the horse drawn cab stopped in front of him.

"Where would ya like ta go?" The uneducated cabby yelled over the rain as Hadley climbed into the carriage, it rocked with the new weight.

"Just take me 'round, I'm lookin' for someone." The man driving the cab didn't ask about the rifle he carried, he didn't actually care so long as he was paid afterward. He heard the screech of what sounded like a young woman nearby, Will quickly tried to decide were it came from - "Go down that street!" He yelled at the driver, the man pulled on the reins and the horse obeyed. "For God sake man! Hurry it up!" He further yelled at the cabby. They had to stop because of crowds, Hadley reached into his pocket and pulled out a pound, he handed it to the man and ran into the tens of people filling the alley. He could see the body and knew that it must've been the Ripper. Hadley shouldered his rifle, reached into his coat and pulled out his peacemaker, he ran towards his comrades to regroup.
