"Goodbye John"
The last words Sherlock had spoken to John, right before he jumped off the rooftop of the building and plummeted downwards, hitting the pavement. Images of the great detective lying broken in a bloody heap flashed through John's mind as he looked around the empty apartment of 221b. After multiple flashbacks of this event did John finally reluctantly realize that Moriarty had indeed won and that Sherlock had lost; that the accusations from the press and the public had finally caused a reaction from the great detective and his friend was dead. John slowly grabbed the handle of the British Browning L9a1 he had recently found in one of Sherlock's coats and put the muzzle of the gun into his mouth; the cold metal brushing his lips as if to kiss him goodbye. Like a slideshow, images of Sherlock and John running from the police, investigating cases, almost dying multiple times, running after murderers, sharing many holidays together all seemed to quickly flash through John's mind with a flood of emotion. Slowly, he pulled the trigger of the gun, the bullet blasting through his brain, for an instant, painless death. Thus, roughly a month after Sherlock Holmes's death, the final resident of 221b Bakers Street ceased to live. Soon afterwards, Mrs. Hudson would rush down to the apartment, startled by the noise, and find the dead body of John Watson.
The funeral took place about 2 weeks after John's death and was filled with a dull, depressing hue. Military members and past clients showed up to present their condolences and pay their respects. Mycroft, Lestrade, and Molly could be seen standing politely against the outskirts of the crowd. After about three hours did the crowd finally decrease in size. Once everybody had left, a single man, unnoticed by all throughout the funeral, slowly made his way to the casket that held the doctor's body. With the wind blowing his already tousled, dark brown hair, his brilliant green eyes watered with tears as he placed a single red rose on the casket containing his only, one, friend.
