Hey there! Here's the sequel to Samantha Hopkins Part 1. Read it first; this one'll make a lot more sense if you do.
Disclaimer: I own nothing. Zilch. Nada.
Samantha Hopkins was on her way back home when she started noticing something strange. As she crossed campus to get back to her car, people had been increasingly glued to their phones and congregated in small groups. People were whispering something about someone coming back. Samantha didn't pay much attention to them, as she had a bunch of notes to transcribe once she got home.
Samantha drove home, and 30 minutes later, was staring at the TV screen in shock. After nearly three years dead and reviled, Sherlock Holmes was back. He had faked his death and dismantled Moriarty's network, proving once and for all that Moriarty was truly the Consulting Criminal. Once the news program switched to something else, Samantha started to make herself dinner and got out her notes. No rest for the wicked, or college students. She was graduating in just a few weeks. She'd managed to graduate in just three years, since she been a part-time college student in high school. Graduation. She hadn't really thought about life after college, but she already had her house on the market and was poking around for job opportunities.
"I wonder if Sherlock's offer still stands?"
