Jey guys, Jess here! It has been a while since I have uploaded anything, and I apologize. However, hopefully my strong love for Sherlock Holmes will rekindle my love for writing :) Maybe Ill be able to finish something, with a little positive support from you guys, plus some constructive R&R as well. Love ya :)

Disclaimer: Unfortunately I do not own these lovely characters :( This is just a dream that I was lucky enough to have, so Ill share it with you. I do not own Sherlock, Watson, Mycroft, Irene etc. I dont even own the Brighthearts, they are from my sister, Sodapoplover111...I only own Max, but shes good enough for me.


Two friends, Amanda Brightheart and Max Adler, were sitting in a little pub outside of London. They were trying to have fun watching the drunken men make fools of them. Some were being thrown to the ground in a fight, while others just fell there on their own. Some of them were hitting on ladies, and failing horrible. It truly was a horrific sight, these men were. However, this event was really a distraction for Max, so she could forget about the mystery that they have just solved.

About three months ago, Max had been staying with Amanda for half of a year. The two girls have been best mates since birth, and she was excited to hear that she would be staying at the Brightheart residence while her mom went away on business. However, after three months of missing her mother terribly, she wakes up to see the beautiful face on the front page of the morning paper. Max was horrified to see that her mother had fallen ill and died of a rare case of tuberculosis. To make matters worse, Irene Adler died in the same restaurant that Max had visited so many times with her beloved mother. It was their favorite. She was so heartbroken and could do nothing but cry.

After attending her mother's funeral, Max made plans to find her "long lost" father. Irene had not told her daughter much about the love of her life, but what Max knew he was a great man. Sherlock Holmes was a great detective and fighter, and although he was not great with romance still somehow swept her off of her feet. However, along with a few great stories, there was a horrible story that had stopped Max from seeking Sherlock out before today. Irene always felt that Holmes was cheating on her. Although it was never confirmed, Max's mother knew it was true. So when she found that she was pregnant, Irene fled town to avoid being dumped by the man she loved. Hearing this, Max hated her father, he hurt Irene, but deep down she knew that if she ever met him, she would love him. He was everything she wanted to be in life, and he was her father after all. Since her mother was no longer here for her, Max set out with her friend to find this mystery man.

Irene had told Max that they had moved far away from Holmes so that he would never find them, so Max left her home in London and started in France, knowing that her mother had lived there before. Along the way, Max and Mandy stowed away on boats, slept in people's sheds (unbeknownst to the owners) and even had to "borrow" some horses to travel easier. Once in France, Max began looking for signs of her father. No one fit Irene's description of him, but it had been almost 15 years since she had last saw him. After getting nowhere on their own, Max and her friend decided to ask others for help; using the very little French that the girls had learned. Most people had never heard of her father, but she finally got a lead from a group of French rebels, that they should head to Switzerland. The two friends stowed away on one last train and headed to the country of Peace with high hopes.


Hey, I know that this is the shortest chapter on the planet, but I promise it will get longer, and more interesting. Any guesses about what the girls will find? R&R :)
