Set after His Last Vow. Please Read & Review. Thank you.
It had been three mouths since Sherlock was almost sent away by Mycroft. He had been in his mind palace, sorting out information. He was sat in his chair, with his hands under his chin, as if he was praying. Sherlock was so busy he didn't hear the door being unlocked. Nor did he hear footsteps.
The intruder made sure that no one would interrupt him. Mrs Hudson was out and John was too busy looking after his newborn daughter. As he came to the top of the stairs. The front room door was wide open. Inside he could see Sherlock sat up in his chair. He smirked as he quietly carried on walking. As he was sneaking behind Sherlock's chair. He took out a small bottle and a cloth. He poured the substance onto the cloth and slipped the small bottle back into his pocket.
With one hand he put the cloth over Sherlock's nose and mouth. With the other hand, he held Sherlock down so he wouldn't wriggle out. Sherlock immediately snapped out of his mind palace. Chloroform, his mind told him straight away. He struggled to get out of the intruder's grip. Before he lost consciousness, he heard a voice. He recognised but couldn't remember who the voice belonged to. It whispered in his ear, "Shhh, it's alright Sherly. Sleep well." Then he lost unconscious and went limp in his chair.
Who is the intruder? Will Sherlock be alright? What will happen?
I will update as soon as possible. x
