An Unusual Visitor
January 7, 2011
[Author's Note: This story is set in a mix-matched universe where everyone lives in the same world at the same time, with an assortment of time periods at the same time, don't ask… actually do ask and I'll try and explain it to you to the best of my abilities. Also "V" and the first person refers to a character that is basically me, but just awesomer, I use her in a few stories under a few names. She has special powers that never really get explained in my stories because she just pushes the plot along and acts smug. If you want a fully fledged explanation you're going to have to ask.]
~221B Baker Street, London England~
It was a fine Sunday morning in London, Watson was sitting in his chair by the fire and Holmes was working on some chemistry project or another.
"Holmes," the mentioned detective nodded, though still focusing on the chemicals "I found an advertisement requesting a detective." At that Holmes walked over to Watson and leaned over his head to read the advertisement.
"Hmm…" Holmes read the ad curiously, "It might be worth it…"
"I thought you might be interested." Watson smiled as Holmes flipped over the ad and wrote his name on the back as the writer had instructed then returned to what he was working on.
A few seconds latter there was a knock on the door and Watson shouted for the visitor to come in. I entered the room.
"Have a seat." Holmes requested motioning towards one of the chairs around the fire place and Holmes sat in the other vacant one. Watson put down that day's paper as I began.
"First of all, it's nice to meet both of you, I'm called V, and I'm the one who put up the advertisement that you so kindly responded to." I nodded at Holmes "Now for the case it's self; from what I have gathered, a group of people have been brining myths and legends to life around the world and this has been causing several problems, including several deaths. So, I was wondering, if you, Mr. Holmes, could find out who's behind this and why they're doing it, to what end."
"I see, it seems interesting enough…" the detective mused.
"Good, here are the locations that have been attacked, histories of those locations, and the witness reports. Feel free to visit any of the places any time, there will be other detectives on this case because of the importance of it being solved as soon as possible. If either of you need anything feel free to ask, and if anything worth you two knowing happens you will both be informed." I handed Holmes a stack of papers then left them so I could answer another reply to my ad.
