Hi! This is me jumping on a new bandwagon in a completely new fandom! *Jump* This is my first published adventure into the world of Sherlock Holmes. I have more written, and even more ideas (moreso than any other fandom) so expect more from me in the near future. At least, if I can get away from my real life in college. Scary!
I've always had an affinity to Holmes, if only for the fact that we share a last name, but I hadn't read much until recently. The movie got me started, and then I read much of canon, and discovered in retrospect that the literature was so much better! I also like the Granada versions.
Well, I've rambled long enough. This is from the Watson's Woes LJ promt table, put up by KCS. 221B drabbles telling a tale in three parts.
I don't own any of these fantastic characters, though I like to claim a relation to one of them :D

"Tell me again, Holmes? Whoever had this fantastic idea?"
Holmes grimaced, waving me on.
"Whatever do you mean Watson?" He panted. I huffed out in exasperation, and ran onwards, pulling up beside him. I felt a flash gratitude. His long legs could easily outstrip mine, but he
stayed close beside me.
"I mean," I gasped, "climbing the fence wherein two very large dogs were loose, antagonizing said large dogs, and then breaking a hole in the fence on the way out!"
Holmes glanced backwards at the two hounds that followed on our very tail. I had no need to. I could picture them quite well. I didn't think I should ever get the image out of my mine of
the bigger of the two lunging at us. They were massive, and they had an apparent fascination for Holmes' and my jugular veins.
The baying sounded anew behind us, and we leapt forwards, crashing through the old farmer's field.
My foot suddenly lurched and twisted to a stop, and a shooting pain gripped my leg. I sprawled to the ground, scraping my hands. I could hear the dog's heavy breathing behind me, and
I flipped over.
From my prone position, I could see the hound's mouth wide open, and I was ready to bet its bite was worse than its bark.
A cliffie! You should know that I am very evil about the cliff hangers.... Hope you liked it! Please let me know!
