Moonbeams and Nightshades

by Padfootette

Four girls in their late teens early twenties move into 221B Baker Street looking for a new start in life and a quiet life then what they had led before, but with Sherlock and John living in a flat above them, Mycroft Holmes and Greg Lestrade popping in unexpectedly, not to mention Moriarty the girls may have got more than they bargained for.

1. Prologue

Hi everyone, just a few author notes before we start. This as you may all ready know is a Sherlock fanfic however, I have created five new female characters that go by the following names:
*Elvira Fay Haven
*Amieanna Verity Haven
*Abriana Sahara Haven
*Echo Arwen Moonbeam
*Ebony Lorelei Moonbeam

As you can see there are the Haven and Moonbeam sisters. The following prologue is a little piece that will hopefully make sense to you however it is set during the third series of Sherlock, however chapter one and the following chapters will probably go back to during series one as it is sort of a series of flashbacks of how the sisters meet their lovers. Anyway a bit long winded but I hope that makes it a bit more understanding and I hope you enjoy reading my story :)

Disclaimer: This story is a fanfiction that I or my friend make absolutely no profit from, as we're writing this together. All credit goes to the author of Sherlock Holmes the one and only Sir Arthur Conan Doyle as well as the makers of the Sherlock tv series and the BBC.

Prologue:

A loud sigh echoed around the empty white room causing the other four occupants of said room to stare irately at the young woman who made the annoying sound. "Seriously Echo, would you please stop. I know your worried and bored and frankly we all probably are and staying in this room is making me feel claustrophobic but sighing isn't going to help and is only making me even more annoyed and right now I'm trying to keep calm and not end up letting my emotions overrule me and cause me to panic." Elvira stated in a sharp voice causing her two sisters to wince slightly as they had been on the end of there sisters temper more than once before and well it was never a pretty sight.

"Calm down El, everything will be all right our husbands are probably all ready on there way here." Amieanna states trying to calm her sister. "She's right you know. At least two of us has some sort of tracking device on our person considering how paranoid your husbands are." Ebony stated staring pointedly at Elvira and Amieanna. A snort left one of the young lady's lips at the statement. "Paranoid is putting it lightly." Echo mumbled under her breath but considering the room was eerily silent the other four woman could hear her quite clearly.

A despairing moan can from Elvira after that statement. "We are going to be in so much trouble once we get out of here. Why did I even agree to go along with your stupid idea. My will soon find out what I've done and then he'll never trust me again." Elvira whined in slight despair. "It'll be fine Elv, you were only helping us besides I'm sure he won't do anything too drastic. I mean this isn't exactly the first time we've got into a sticky situation." Abriana stated nonchalantly not really worried about her husbands reaction, especially considering he had gotten into even more trouble than she had with his friends.

"Yeah well you four are all right, your other half are used to you being in these sort of situations and won't even worry much considering they know you can handle yourselves but My probably won't even allow me to leave the house without being under constant surveillance if we ever get out of here alive." Elvira mumbled worriedly.

"Oh yeah, you have got a valid point he can be rather overprotective when he wants to be, not that he'll ever admit to being so." Ebony said thoughtfully as she remembered the many times her husband had complained about such a thing during one of his many dangerous cases.

"Do you think Magneson was telling the truth about the files?" Elvira said quietly as she remembered what the man had said before they were thrown into his white thinking room or what ever he liked to call it. A sigh broke the awkward silence once again. "Probably, which complicates things especially as he has so much information about us, especially you Elvira. I'm sorry we got you into this mess and once we get out of here I'll make sure My doesn't keep you locked up like a little damsel in distress all right." Ebony promised her friend knowing that her lover would be against doing such a thing in order to keep the people he loves safe.

She could relax slightly as she all ready knew her husband wouldn't allow his brother to do anything so drastic to her or himself so the only thing she would have to bother with is the many surveillance cameras and shadows that would no doubt be ordered to follow her. "Thank you." Elvira smiled at her friend however she still felt slightly apprehensive when she thought of her lover, well fiancé really since he had finally plucked up the courage to ask her a few weeks ago to marry her.

The very thought caused a rosy blush to rise to her rather pale cheeks and a small smile to curl her lips upwards however her lift in spirits did not last long as the only door to the room swung open revealing Magneson who she had slowly come to hate after all he had done to her friends and family. Rising to her feet she was the first to walk towards the door, her sisters and friends following behind as she heard the sound of the choppers of a helicopter fly overhead.

"Well come on lovely ladies it's seems the cavalry has arrived to save the day." Magneson stated with a rather twisted smile as he made quickly towards the glass doors that led outside. Elvira bit her lip to keep from replying sarcastically and followed behind.
