READ BELOW!
Posting this now but next one will be on Saturday if I do 2 more chapters or Sunday if I only do a second! I will try and post EVERY weekend unless I say otherwise in a chapter (like something important like Mid-Terms or Finals) Depending on how many chapters for a case I have I'll start posting: 2 chapters Sat. &Sun. 3:Fri-Sun OR Sat.-Mon. 4: Fri-Mon. and 5+ will be divided into two weekends; Fri-Mon the continuing the next Friday. I will not post Tuesday-Thursday. Making this exception because I noticed that each chapter has more views than visitors meaning 1 person's viewing it multiple times, probably to check if there's a new chapter. Follow the story or just check every Saturday. Easier that way, not that I don't like views I'm just trying to save you time.
CASE #2: SKELITAL CLOSETS- PART ONE
3rd person:
Sherlock, without a case, was bored. It was still early; John and Krista were still in bed as far as he knew. After a few minutes John came down and went into the kitchen in his robe. Sherlock heard some pans rustling then John popped his head in the room.
"You want some breakfast?"
"Just coffee." He nods and goes back into the kitchen. After five maybe 10 minutes he hears his bedroom door open. He looks up as Krista walks in but, he looks away a little uncomfortable. She smirks upon seeing him nervous.
"Morning Sherlock." John, upon hear her speak, popped his head back in.
"Morning Krista do you want some-?" He stopped as he looked at her. "W-why are you only in an over-sized T-shirt?" She shrugs.
"It's what I wore to bed." Sherlock's eyes narrow slightly.
"Tell me you had something on under that since you're sleeping in my bed." She rolls her eyes.
"Don't worry I have panties on." She giggles. She walks past John, who watches her go by then follows her into the kitchen.
"K-Krista, don't you think you should put something on?" The t-shirt went down to just below mid-thigh.
"Why? No one's coming over and I trust you boys."
"That's nice of you but, people do have the tendency of just popping up here."
"If it'll make you feel better I'll go get changed." She smiles walking up to him kissing his cheek before walking out of the kitchen. Sherlock looks up at her and opens his mouth to speak. "I know, I know, I'm going." She rolls her eyes when his narrow. She goes down to her flat. John walks out of the kitchen, his face slightly pink. Sherlock narrows his eyes for a second.
"John." He looks at Sherlock.
"Hm?" Sherlock gives him a pointed look.
"My coffee?"
"Oh right." Sherlock rolls his eyes as John goes back into the kitchen.
Krista's POV
I got down to my flat and went into my bedroom.
"Let's see. What to wear today." I open my dresser and take out a long sleeve black shirt, dark green skinny jeans and got my black boots. Once dressed, I go back up stairs. I walk inside to see Sherlock on the phone.
"-on our way." He hangs up and grabs his coat. "Come on John."
"What's up? New case?" Sherlock smirks, excited.
"Yep, three abductions! Only reason they're calling us is because there's a code they can't crack. Like that's new." John comes down, dressed, fixing his coat.
"Jeez, Sherlock, you get too excited about these things. We only just had a case yesterday."
"That was a whole 10 hours 34 minutes and 52 seconds ago!" I laugh.
"Lemme get my coat."
"Hurry!" Sherlock shouts running down the stairs. John rolls his eyes.
"He's like a kid going to the toy store." I say nudging John.
"What would that make us? The parents?" He laughs.
"I would have loved to see how his handled him."
We got down to Lestrade's office.
"Finally. Okay three people have been abducted; they've been reported missing all within three days. Two men and a woman; George Solis, Zoe Hart, and then David Young. From where they were taken, their homes, we found a note. Not sure what means. We know it can't be a different language; it's just mixed up letters." He picks up three pieces of paper. "Of course the actual notes are in evidence. I had them photo copied for you though." Sherlock takes them and gives me one.
"Why do I get one?" I mumble. He looks at me.
E ghuf fryd oui tet
"What the bloody hell does that mean?" John asks looking over my shoulder.
" 'oui' is French for yes, but the other 'words' don't make sense. Sherlock, let me see the other two."
"If I don't get anything what makes you think you will?" I hold out my hand, giving him a look. "Oh fine." He hands them over.

"I know this." Sherlock looks at me.
"What?"
"It's…" I raise an eyebrow. "Al-bhed?"
"Al what?" Lestrade gives me a confused look.
"F-From a video game." I look away embarrassed.
"Why couldn't you tell it was that from the first message I gave you?"
"Cause I had to see the "teth'd" part. Switch T and D and you have 'DeDh'T' closest English word to that is "Didn't. Knowing that we know E is I and H is N."
"Apply that same concept to everything else." Sherlock gets a pad and pencil and gives it to me. "Here." I roll my eyes.

"Wouldn't the I's be E's then?" John asked. I shake my head.
"Doesn't work that way."
"Is that all you've got?" Sherlock looks at the paper. "I blank blank blank Did. It blank blank blank. Blank Didn't blank It?"
"If you'd gimme a second." I start to change more of it. "Now working on process of elimination, 'paaN' how many four letter words can you think of that end in N and have two repeating letters in the middle?" John and Lestrade start to think. "Rhetorical boys. When you think of words with those characteristics you think 'seen, been', etc. Working by my logic, it could be, It blank blank BEEN/SEEN blank. Now three letter words, I think BEEN YOU works better than It blank blank seen you so if we change it based on that…"
"What if you're wrong?" Lestrade point out.
"Babe I'm hardly ever wrong."

"Okay so now we have: I blank blank You Did. It blank blank Been You. And, blank Didn't blank It. Just looking at this I can tell what it's supposed to say." Sherlock looks at me.
"Well what?" I frown.
"You're not even going to try? Where's the fun in that?"
"I don't know this Al-Bhed."
"Here's a Hint C is S."
"There are only three C's."
"It's enough to help you."
He picks up the pencil and writes.

A look of realization came over his face.

"Looks like our abductees have secrets." I shake my head.
"What do you mean no?" Lestrade crosses his arms.
"If the notes were meant for the abductees they wouldn't have been found when they were taken. They're meant for someone the abductees know. Three different notes, three different secrets, and three different people. Everyone's got a few skeletons in their closets. This is gunna be fun."
Sherlock, John and I went back to Baker Street.
"Alright, so we know each abductee has a person they know with a secret. They took that certain person because they had something to do with the secret. We should look up the abductee's backgrounds online. Sherlock, John, you take the two men I'll look up the woman. My lap tops downstairs I'll be right back." They nod and get their laptops. I run down stairs and go into my flat. I hold out my hand and whisper.
"Venire." Suddenly my laptop is in my hand. I smile and run up stairs. I walk into the boy's flat and Sherlock is on his couch while John is in his chair. I sit down next to Sherlock, who glances at me, and then start to work.
About half an hour or so later we share our findings.
"George Solis. Only bad thing that happened to him was, his wife was murdered. He and his sister-in-law were the only one's home. The murder was almost pinned on him because the sister had told police that the two had been fighting and it sometimes got violent. Possible motive. But he was the one who called in to the police and their home had a security camera and showed him coming home after she was murder. He said, 'I came home and went into our bedroom to change and that's when I saw her dead on the floor.' And this happened Last year … three days ago actually." Sherlock looks up from the screen. "John?"
"David Young. He was…" He sighs. "Convicted on the rape of his niece, Jenna." I frown. "David's brother called it in. After a few days of being teased at school the niece committed suicide. The Uncle was in prison for a year… just got out on parole …yesterday. He was taken yesterday." John frowns. "Krista?"
"Zoe Hart. Only bad thing was that she was in a car accident where one of her friends was killed. She was driving with three friends, one who was in the passenger's seat and the other two in back. This statement, from the girl who sat behind her on the driver's side, says: 'Everything was calm, then suddenly the car swerves into the opposite lane and Lilly tries to steer the car back but a big truck hits the side of the car, on Lilly's side and then Lilly was dead.' It also says that Zoe had been knocked unconscious somehow. There's no mention of the girl who was sitting behind Lilly. But the girl-who-gave-that-statement's name is Marisa Davis. And get this, this happened two days ago."
"They were taken a year later on the day someone connected to them died." Sherlock points out.
"I know what you did. It should have been you. She didn't deserve it. Some one knows who killed George's wife, someone thinks that Lilly shouldn't have been the one who died, and someone knows David's niece didn't deserve what happened to her."
"The first one does seem like a secret but the other two don't." John says.
"Not if something else happened from what people were told." I close my laptop and put it on the table.
"It's getting late. Tomorrow we'll head out John, you'll go and talk to Mr. Solis' sister-in-law, Krista you'll talk to Miss. Davis I'll go visit Mr. Young's brother."
"Well night Sherlock." John and I stand up.
"Night." He remains seated on the couch on his laptop.
"You're not going to sleep?" He looks up. By now John had go to his room.
"I don't sleep during cases."
"That's not healthy. You should get some sleep."
"I will tomorrow if we finish the case." I roll my eyes.
"You'll pass out one day." He smirks.
"I don't let cases drag on that long."
"Goodnight Sherlock." I lean down and kiss his head. He looks up. I smile and walk to his room.
"Goodnight Krista."
WORKING ON NEXT ONE NOW POSTING NEXT ONE SAT. OR SUN.
My BF just broke up with me (for 2 weeks til his "head is clear") and the only way to get my mind off things is to write.

Below are translations and such
(1)No idea if that happens but it must for this story.
