"William Sherlock Scott Holmes!" Mycroft shouted at his sibling.
Sherlock knew he had gone too far this time, putting a hole through Mycroft's brand new umbrella. His older brother stood by his bedroom doorframe, fuming and yelling at Sherlock for what he had done. He wasn't listening though. Mycroft was notorious for patronizing him, so now everything that came out of his mouth was like white noise to Sherlock.
Once Mycroft's anger died down, he resorted to looking over his hole-filled umbrella. As he was distracted, Sherlock grabbed his toy sword from under his bed, and his large pirate hat. He placed the hat on his head and jumped in front of his brother, his sword pointed forwards and his left arm positioned low behind him. He was ready for the fierce duel.
"Argh!" Sherlock declared, making Mycroft raise his eyebrows. "I've caught ye defenseless this time, Captain Mycroft the Terrible!"
"Sherlock, what in the name of—"
"Yearghh!" Sherlock yelled, whacking Mycroft's side and slipping between his legs in an attempt to escape the room.
"Sherlock! Get back here this instant!" Mycroft hollered.
But his little brother wasn't slowing down now. He successfully ran down the stairs, pushing back his large pirate hat.
"Redbeard!" Sherlock called once he reached the living room. "Come here boy! Come here!"
His dog's ears perked up at the sound of Sherlock's voice, and in a blink of an eye he was right by his owner's side.
"Clever boy!" Sherlock praised, stopping to pet his dog before breaking out into a sprint once more. "Follow me! We must defend ourselves against the enemy!" He laughed, opening the door to the backyard.
"Into battle!"
AN: Hey thanks for reading! I was pretty bored and I had to get over my writer's block, so I forced myself to write this. I know it's not great… and it's the shortest story I've ever written, but whatever. My first attempt at a Kidlock story. So let me know how I did and where I should look to improve. Reviews are MUCH appreciated!
PS: Yes… the "into battle" was a reference to when Sherlock says that as he gets ready for John's wedding. Sorry.
