Now it was the day of Simza and Septimus were going to get married at the Holmes Manor. All of Sherlock's brothers and sisters and other family members had all turned up. So had all their friends.
Sherlock was starting to get better his arm still in a sling and he was leaning heavily on a cane. He needed to talk to his brothers about what they had seen at Watson's.
He sees his brothers getting into suits in one of the living rooms.
"Brother sit down before you fall down", John says
"I can stand", Sherlock says
"But you might injure yourself and your wife would kill me sit down and I will help you get in your suit", Louis says
"Noah how is Watson? And Mary" Sherlock asks
"They are still grieving about you. Mary is trying to help Doctor Watson through his grief. But I can see he is struggling. You should see them Sherlock", Noah says straighten Sherlock's tie
"No I can't go back now. They will have a better life without me", Sherlock says
"Watson is gutted that you 'died'. You should tell them the truth", Noah replies
"I want him safe. And with me out of the picture he will be. It is the least he deserves for putting up with me", Sherlock replies
"Why are you keeping an eye on him and his wife then?" Mycroft asks smirking at his brother
"Better to be safe", Sherlock says
"It has been four months. Do you honesty think Moriarty is still out there?" Mycroft asks
"I do. It is a gut feeling and you know I am always right. Even Charlotte my loving wife agrees with me", Sherlock replies
Mycroft rolls his eyes
"Your wife would say anything to get you to rest", Damion mutters
"Charlus have you found Moriarty?" Sherlock asks changing the subject
"He is being difficult to find. But I will", Charlus replies
"Septimus are you ready to be wed?" Damion asks changing the subject again
"Yes. I am nervous. But I love Simza", Septimus says with conviction, "Louis are you making sure the weather is sunny?"
"I am making sure no rain or snow comes. You know I can't control the sun", Louis says straightening his tie
"This day will go down fine", Mycroft says
"The ladies are going to be late", Dezmond states
"They are still working on their makeup", John says having read the ladies mines
"That is just wrong John", Sirius says to his brother
"He can't help it", Leopold says sticking up for a brother
"Why don't we see to the guests?" Mycroft suggests
"This is going to be fun", Noah says
"Oh yes it will be", Sherlock says groaning as he stands up
"Come on brother no need to be sarcastic", John says grinning
"Stop reading my mind", Sherlock says
"Never", John says
"Do I look all right?" Septimus asks in his best suit
"You look great brother", Dezmond replies
"Lets go out and great the family", Louis suggests
"How much fun", Sherlock says sarcastically
All the family has arrived Simza met everyone she was shocked to kind how many Holmes there were. Each member of the family told them their curse. Simza knew if she gave Septimus a child it would be cursed like all members of the Holmes family. But after having a talk with the Holmes females who had children she felt more comfortable of having children.
Now was her wedding day and the Holmes females were helping her get ready while the boys were talking to Sherlock. Simza still couldn't believe he had survived that fall. But he had and was slowly starting to recover with the help of his family. Charlotte Idler-Holmes was Simza's Matron of Honour and with the other Holmes were getting Simza ready. They had made her dress for her with a long train and veil. The dress was made of lace with long selves. She had a delicate gold phoenix with blue sapphires as eyes hair clips. Around her waist was a blue sash that added more detail to the dress.
"You look amazing Simza", Katiryi says to her soon to be sister-in-law
Thalia who was in animal form nods her head. Selena finishes Simza's makeup. Lenora was finishing the hair of Simza.
"Your mother and father are here", Alexandra says
Alexandra could see the dead. She saw both of Simza's parents were standing in the room.
"Tell them I love them", Simza says
"They can hear you. Just talk to them they can always hear you", Alexandra replies
"We love you Simza. You have made us so proud", her parents say
Alexandra repeats what they have said and some other words.
"I think we are ready", Sashandra says smiling at the bride
"I agree. You look amazing Simza", Cassandra says
"You will be a wonderful sister to the family", Joan and Joanna say together
"Septimus will be lost for words when he sees you", Josephina says
"He might even faint", Seraphina adds
Charlotte chuckles, "Maybe"
"Are you ready Simza?" Joanna asks
"Everyone is ready down stairs", Mycroft says appearing in the doorway with Sherlock
"Then lets start", Simza says going over to Sherlock
Simza had asked Sherlock to give her away. After all he had been a great friend to her and she wouldn't be here without him. He had saved her life.
"Careful", Sherlock winces as the lock arms
"Sorry. I am nervous", Simza says as they walk
"I can tell. Septimus is the same", Sherlock replies
"Am I going to be a good member of the family?" Simza asks Sherlock
"I would ask Seraphina. But she might not be about to see you. Since you are marrying a family member", Sherlock says at they get to the open doors, "Ready?"
"As I will ever be", Simza says holding on tight to Sherlock
Sherlock winces but doesn't comment. As the wedding march starts and they make their way down the aisle which was outside. All the family members were in their seats. Simza's eyes had looked on Septimius's.
"Here you go brother be happy", Sherlock says handing Simza to Septimus
"Thank you brother", Septimus says
They look into each others eyes.
"You look amazing", Septimus says to Simza
"So do you", Simza says
The vows were simple but personal. Sherlock had to sit down in the middle of the ceremony. He was still sick no matter how much he wanted to hide it Charlotte knew he husband better then anyone. As the ceremony ends and the reception begins. Sherlock looks around at everyone all family and friends had come together for this day. But Sherlock saw a man that didn't belong here.
"Charlotte dance with me", Sherlock says to his wife
"Your injured you can't dance", Charlotte replies
"Trust me", Sherlock says looking into her eyes
Charlotte saw the need to speak in his eyes so she got up and joined him on the dance floor.
"See that man in the boulder hat?" Sherlock mummers to Charlotte
"Yes", Charlotte says seeing the strange man
"Do you recognise him?" Sherlock asks
"No. I don't", Charlotte mummers
"He doesn't belong here. His clothing and everything is not such I would expect from our family and friends", Sherlock mummers
"Have you told your siblings?" Charlotte asks
"John has told them. Look the man is running. After him!" Sherlock says running after the man he had saw
"Sherlock! Your not well enough!" Charlotte yells as he takes off
Sherlock's male siblings follow they turn a corner on their property and the see that the man had disappeared. And Sherlock was winded and crouched on the ground with the man's hat.
"Are you alright Sherlock?" Sirius asks
"I am just winded. That man must have worked for Moriarty. John did you read his mind?" Sherlock asks as Leopold and Noah help Sherlock up
"Sorry I didn't catch his mind. There are too many people here. Do you think that person could have been after you?" John asks
"He was a warning. Noah get back to watching Watson. I have a bad feeling", Sherlock says
"I will leave after Septimus and Simza do", Noah replies
"Then the game is afoot"
