A Book and That Thing in Your Pocket

by With-the-Wolves

Will finds a book titled "How to become Sherlock Holmes: A Step-by-Step Guide." He didn't realize the title was so literal. Now he has to work his way through the TV show Sherlock guided by the book and a strange object he finds in his pocket.

1. Prologue

So, *claps* new story. Pretty much, I just wanted to write something Sherlock-ey because we're sort of in the middle/finished with series 3. And Ranger's Apprentice was here, as always, for crossover material.

Prologue

"Horace, guess what?" Will yelled as he appeared out of nowhere behind his friend.

Horace jumped and turned around. "You have to stop doing that, Will!"

"I can use my Ranger training however I like!" Will said. "And guess what?"

Horace rolled his eyes. "What?"

"I'm going to become Sherlock Holmes."

"What?"

"I got this book," Will said, conjuring the book out of nowhere. "And I'm going to use it to become Sherlock Holmes."

Horace looked at the book. How to become Sherlock Holmes: A Step-by-Step Guide. Oh god. "So…You're going to follow all of the steps—"

"And I'll become Sherlock Holmes!" Will said as he opened the book to the first page.
