K so I kid you not the only reason for this story is because it was an excuse to listen to Centuries over and over and over. Enjoy.

Some legends are told
Some turn to dust or to gold
But you will remember me
Remember me for centuries
And just one mistake
Is all it will take.
We'll go down in history
Remember me for centuries
Moriarty smirked, humming to himself as he watched the fire blaze.
Remember me for centuries
Smoke encircled his head, rising up from the pile of growing ashes. He turned away from it as screams met his ears, causing his smirk to only widen.
He had done it.
London was his.
Mummified my teenage dreams
No, it's nothing wrong with me
The kids are all wrong,
The stories are off
Heavy metal broke my
"Da da da da, deda da da…" He continued to sing along to the music playing on his MP3 player, walking along the empty sidewalk as fire ate away at the English skyline.
Heart!
He tossed the MP3 player into the fire, singing from memory, his favourite music of the people's screams backing him up.
Come on, come on and let me in
The bruises on your thighs like my fingerprints
And this is for tonight
The darkness that you felt
I never meant for you to fix yourself
He walked a whole block. Two. Three. Five. Ten. He kept walking, placing a piece of gum in his mouth and chewing on it as he made his way to Baker Street.
Some legends are told
Some turn to dust or to gold
But you will remember me
When he got to 221B, he walked in, not bothering to destroy anything on this street specifically. It was the only one left not damaged in some way.
Remember me for centuries
Slowly, he walked up the stairs, humming softly as he walked through the open doorway and was greeted by Sherlock, sitting alone in his chair.
And just one mistake
Is all it will take.
We'll go down in history
"Well, well, well…" He taunted, smirking. "I would've thought that the genius consulting detective of Baker Street would've fled the country by now."
Remember me for centuries
"And let you think that you bested me? No, I wouldn't do such a thing. You have a big enough ego already."
Remember me for centuries
His smirk widened, followed by a small laugh. "Oh, Sherlock. You always did think that you had the upper hand."
And I can't stop 'til the whole world knows my name
'Cause I was only born inside my dreams
Until you die for me, as long as there is a light, my shadow's over you
'Cause I am the opposite of amnesia
And you're a cherry blossom
You're about to bloom
You look so pretty, but you're gone so soon
"Can't you tell who's won the battle? You've lost, Sherl, it's best that you admit that now. It's bad for your mental health not to."
Some legends are told
Some turn to dust or to gold
But you will remember me
Remember me for centuries
And just one mistake
Is all it will take.
We'll go down in history
Remember me for centuries
"I'm going to enjoy your demise for a long, long, long time. And who do you have to thank for it? Your brother dearest."
Remember me for centuries
Sherlock was silent. He couldn't admit Moriarty was right. This time, he really had lost their game, and he doubted there would be a rematch.
We've been here forever
And here's the frozen proof
I could scream forever
We are the poisoned youth
Moriarty had done it. He had won everything, and no one could stop him now. Lestrade had tried, as did Sherlock, but it was clearly to no avail. It didn't even push Moriarty back.
Some legends are told
Some turn to dust or to gold
But you will remember me
Remember me for centuries
And just one mistake
Is all it will take,
We'll go down in history
Remember me for centuries
The whole world would now know Moriarty as the man who destroyed England. And they would quake in fear.
Remember me for centuries
