((This isn't a one-off character, it's new OC!))

Deciding to spend a holiday in Devon, Griffin had left the Society and in extension most of his research in his office. Not because of his distrust of Fiona or the fact that his science could be stolen, but because Jekyll had recommended that Griffin have a break before continuing with his exhibition piece. And so, Griffin's office was locked, empty of occupancy, with only the rats with a week's worth of food.

That is, until a brick was hurled through it's window during the night.

Jonathan Cheshire had not always turned to a life of crime and thievery. Having a respected upbringing by an industrialist and a socialite wife, Cheshire was described by many of his friends as "a fine gentleman". He thought that was amusing. Cheshire was anything but a fine gentleman. He had stolen from over two-hundred households from his career spanning over five years. The papers had called him "The Millbank Marauder"; a title which he did approve of, but preferred to include his own name. Cheshire had never been caught, nor suspected of his secret crimes.

Cheshire had first heard of the invisible man from various gossip and speakeasies from around the city of London. Rumours of a specter or an apparition had been terrorising a manager of some restaurant called La Rose Vivante, or a milkman in Sussex having plant pots thrown at him. Cheshire had only one thought of this: invisibility would be a godsend for a cat burglar.

So, Cheshire had begun to investigate the rumours. Most of them were completely fabricated, old wife's tales and the like, but few were true. One was a health inspector mentioning a building somewhere in the city that housed many professional and unprofessional scientists. "Disreputable" he called it. When Cheshire asked him further information, the inspector had told him that many professions were there, including a man who could make rats invisible. Cheshire knew that that must be where the invisible man would be.

The window breaking didn't create much noise as the brick hurtled through it, thudding heavily on the back of the desk chair. Cheshire had perched himself on one of the building's, a residential home, and had thrown it straight through one of the windows. Cheshire knew that the window belonged to Griffin; he'd been watching the Society for some time, seeing all sorts of weird and wonderful experiments. After seeing a bunch of rats in cages, Cheshire realised that it must belong to the invisible man.

The gap between the roof and Griffin's window was over a metre wide, but was easy enough to jump across. Cheshire leaped into the office. He'd brought a lantern with him, and the dim light of the candle showed a completely vacant room. Thank God, thought Cheshire.

Cheshire began ruffling through the drawers and cabinets around the room, searching for anything that might be something to do with invisibility. Opening a grand old oak cabinet, Cheshire found a small safe buried behind stacks of paper. The dial had been frequently used, the hinges rusted and near-broken and the paint job completely faded.

Taking his crowbar, Cheshire stuck it sharply in a thin gap within the safe hatch, and pulled. After three tries, the hatch eventually gave way, toppling onto the floor. The contents of the safe was a small vial, containing a few drops of a clear liquid. This must be it, Cheshire thought. Stopping himself from drinking it, Cheshire decided to test it on a rat first.

Finding an eye dropper, Cheshire took a single drop of the liquid, seized a rat from one of the cages and force-fed it. After a few minutes of waiting, the rat began to slowly disappear, it's tail and feet completely gone. At last! Without even thinking, Cheshire took the vial, and downed the last drops. It tasted surprisingly like nothing.

As he waited for the process to start, Cheshire went back to the safe, and found a small note that was beside where the vial was. Must've missed it. The note was written with very sprawled handwriting, but was just readable.

If you're reading this, and have taken the liquid within the container beside this note, then I utterly pity you. Those few drops were a completely diluted compound of my masterpiece formula; a potion that will render you permanently invisible. I have kept this creation completely secret. I've too many enemies wanting them. Hyde, Moriarty and Steinmetz. I will not take it. I do not wish to be permanently unseen to the world. But if you have taken it, then know this: there is no antidote. The adhesive within the formula will keep it within your bloodstream until death. May you find solace in your curse.

- Dr. Hawley Griffin

After he read the note, Cheshire noticed that his hands weren't there. As a matter of fact, his entire body wasn't there; only his clothes remained the visible part of him. He laughed. He'd done it. Cheshire had done it. He could steal anything now. But...

"There is no antidote." Cheshire read aloud, reminding himself. He was to be like this for the rest of his life. Unseen. Unnoticed. Invisible. "Sh\*t!"

He didn't mean to outburst, to shout too loud. He heard footsteps out near the door. Oh, Christ. Cheshire quickly undressed, amazed at the fact he couldn't see himself, and dived for the gap behind the door. Stupid stupid stupid!

The door opened, and someone entered.

Alicia had been walking by when she heard a voice. She frowned and opened the door. "Is everything o-" there was no one in the room. "Kay...?"

Was she hearing things again? She hadn't been thinking about them, she was distracted! But there weren't other voices... there had to be someone nearby...

Cheshire held his frantic breath as a girl with red hair appeared. He eyed his discarded clothes on the floor. He forgot to toss them out of the window. Damn it all!

No question about it now; he'd have to knock her out. Reaching for a piece of firewood in the fireplace, Cheshire raised the weapon high above his head, prepared to strike.

Cheshire was a thief. He had stolen many things. Money, jewelry, documents. He was a criminal. But he was also a gentleman. Cheshire just couldn't hit a defenseless and vulnerable girl without even facing her properly, let alone invisible.

Deciding, Cheshire threw the club back to the fireplace with a loud clunk.

Cheshire backed away and made his way to the door. As it was his first time being invisible, and hopefully the last, Cheshire was quite unsure with his footing. As such, his foot caught a stack of paper, and he fell to the floor.

"Ouch!"

Kito had been walking back, he didn't want to check on Griffin but he did anyway. "Griffin, if you don't shut up I will not restrain myself and tear you apart?" Kito looked around, he didn't see anyone in the room but saw a broken window and a brick. He sniffed the air, he knew someone was behind the door. He eyed the door which was now open. Kito stepped inside looking around seeing the safe and crow bar, he almost laughed. No wait, he did laugh, Griffin was one of the most paranoid men he met and a safe of his was broken in to, the very fact his room was broken in to was hilarious.

The barricade was managing to hold, for now. Cheshire looked about the room, which seemed to be a former bathroom filled with discarded furnishings and furniture. Buried in the mix was a single shower. That thing can smell me, clearly...

Cheshire rushed quickly to the shower, and doused himself in hot water. That'll take away the stench.

Kito took a step back and changed in to wolf form, this was going to hurt, it was going to hurt A LOT, but he needed the extra strength his wolf form offered. He then ran down the hall and bounded toward the door gathering speed. He turned his head to the side before his shoulder slammed against the door causing the barricade to give way.

Gemma stormed into the room, red in the face. "GRIFFIN!!!!!!!!!" Her eyes searched the room in anger. "I know it was you! Who else could it be?" In reality, her accusations were brought on complete, or otherwise, falsehood. Someone had disobeyed the 'No rouge science allowed sign' and she suspected him. "I heard you!

"Sure did..." Gemma shook her head slightly amused. "Night!"

She made her way over to the window and judged the distance to the ground. (That is rather long... Well better break an ankle than deal with Griffin whenever he comes up here.) She pushed up the broken glass and swung her legs over the side of the windowsill. Turning around, she caught the toe of a boot on the wall. Taking a deep breath, she began to lower herself down the brick wall.

"CRAP!" Seven feet off the ground, almost there, she slipped. She landed flat on her back and lay there dazed. Not your smartest idea Gem.

((The end? Unless you have another idea))
