Gumshoe continued to look over his shoulder once he'd passed it; the place where he'd been ambushed, that was! Unfortunately, he was so caught up in what he was doing that he hadn't thought to check for things that might be in front of him!
When he finally noticed that the voices up ahead were getting louder, he turned his head and--
"Ahh!" He comically jumped back in surprise. Phew. That was close! He nearly ran into someone. "Ah, sorry about that... Whoa!" He gazed in awe at what the lady was wearing. How did someone come across an outfit like that here!? A smile spread across his face. "Somebody's dressed to the nines! Where did you get..."
But then he realized who he was speaking to, which stunned him into silence. The smile vanished. "Wait, you're Ms. Skye?"
