1. Chapter 1

Tessa stepped out of Heathrow on a very foggy morning, her cheeks flushed due to the cold. She had travelled to London to seek out the famous detective, Sherlock Holmes. Her father. Yes, she, Tessa Brianna Holmes, had come to London to meet her high functioning sociopath father. Why was she bothering to meet with a father that never cared about her or her mother? A face flashed in front of her. That's right, her mother's disappearance and her not very helpful note. 'Find your father- he will help.'

Like that will ever happen. A gust of wind blew over her blonde hair and she pulled her dark blue overcoat around her. She dragged her small case onto the pavement and hailed a cab.

"And where would the young miss wish to go?", the cabbie asked. Tessa pulled her black beanie hat down and replied, "221b Baker Street".

John Watson awoke to the sound of Sherlock's violin. His flatmate's finesse at the instrument never ceased to amaze him, however this screeching just had to stop. John hauled himself over to where the dark haired man stood, his hawkish features scrunched together, dragging the bow randomly over the stretched strings. "What in the devil's name are you doing, Sherlock? Do you have any idea how horrible that noise was?" Watson tried and failed to suppress a yawn while reprimanding his best friend.

"Oh, John! Good morning. I suppose you had a good night's sleep." Sherlock put down the bow and faced the doctor with a polite smile.

John was mildly surprised as the consulting detective was rarely polite to anyone at all. "Why, yes, than…"

"Then let us be off! We have work to do." Sherlock breezed pass Watson, threw on his black overcoat and walked downstairs. Watson stood still for a second. Ultimately his mind registered something and he followed the detective, muttering obscenities and repeatedly shouting 'Sherlock' angrily.

Out on the streets in front of 221b, John confronted Sherlock Holmes. "Did you wake me up just to go on a case?"

"Of course, why else would I play something so horribly disgusting? Every thing I do has a perfectly sound reason behind an interesting case in months!" Sherlock practically jumped in excitement. As his jumpy self approached the road in preparation for hailing a cab, a car carrying a passenger stopped in front of him. Tessa stepped out and addressed the detective, "Mr. William Sherlock Holmes? I'm Tessa Brianna Holmes, your daughter and I'm afraid we have a lot to discuss."
