Disclaimer: I do not own Sherlock or any of its characters. They belong to BBC/ whoever else owns it. also do not own the idea I got from the show Merlin. I only own Krista, the cases (I make them up, if there's something like it out there I'm not copying I swear.) and other OCs.
Note: 999 is England's 911.

3rd Person
Sherlock froze when he heard the explosion coming from the other side of the area and the other end of his phone but soon began to run again, faster to the building Krista was, keeping his phone to his ear; the call hadn't been disconnected. Soon a cab pulled over to the side of the road near him and John got out, after paying the driver, and began to run with him. They were only about a block away.
"Oh god it was Krista's building?! Are you calling an ambulance?"
"No doubt they're already on their way hearing that. She called me before the bomb went off. The call is still connected." On the other line of the phone Sherlock could hear rumble crumbling and everything settling down for the most part. The two ran to the parking structure. They froze seeing the building in ruins. There were people on the streets looking in disbelief. Some were calling 999. Sherlock looked around the rubble for an entrance. "Krista! Can you hear me?!" He let go of the breath he had been holding when he heard coughing then her shouting.
"Sherlock!"
"She's alive." He said to John. John let out a breath. "This way, careful." Sherlock said walking towards a small opening.
"Sherlock, I can't hold this up forever, help."
"Hold what up?"
"Just…Hurry!" He could hear her shout from inside of the rubble. The two carefully made their way around cars and fallen floors. Sherlock noticed a sort of light coming from one area.
"This way." He then spoke into the phone. "Krista can you hear me nearby?" He said loudly. John could hear the distant sound of police and Ambulances sirens.
"Yeah!" The two followed her voice till they found her. The two men stared in awe at the sight. Krista was standing in the middle of an open area with her arms up. A mix of pink and purple light seemed to be holding up the ceiling and rubble from crushing her about 8 ft. up.
"Krista!" John exclaimed. "My god." She looked over to the two of them. Her arms were visibly shaking. Sherlock noticed the phone a few feet away.
"H-H-Help." She stuttered her tear filled eyes holding absolute fear.
"Can't you stop time and come out?" John suggested.
"I-I don't know if I could stop everything from falling in time." She blinked and some tears rolled down her cheeks. "I'm gunna die."
"You're strong, Krista, you can do it." Sherlock said "What would I do without my witch." She nodded slightly.
"Y-you two should clear out of here; I don't want to take you with me should I mess up."
"You'll make it out alive." Sherlock said giving her a long look before turning, pulling John with him, away. Krista waited a few moments, enough time for them to get out before she took a deep breath closing her eyes. In a fraction of a second the force-field she had been holding up fell and with it came the rubble. It all fell two feet before Krista opened her eyes. They were glowing golden. She glanced up at the rubble barely touching the top of her head and let out a shaky breath as she slowly walked over and through the rubble. Just as she got outside time resumed and the rubble fell the impact sending Krista to the ground. John rushed over to her. By now police and an ambulance were already at the scene. Paramedics rushed over to Krista and helped her into an ambulance even though she struggled. Sherlock was talking to Lestrade and John helped get Krista up into the ambulance. She gripped his sleeve.
"I-I don't need to go to a hospital; I'm fine."
"Krista, please just go."
"I-I don't want to, please." John frowned and got into the ambulance with her and held her hand. He looked to Sherlock who glanced over before turning back to Lestrade.
"Don't worry, you'll be fine. It's just a hospital they just need to see if you're alright. I'll be right by your side." Krista gripped John's hand before closing her eyes and letting the dark wash everything away.
I woke up to the sound of my heart monitor in a hospital bed about an hour later. Sherlock was sitting a chair next to my bed. He noticed that I was awake and looked at me.
"It's Thursday. You were out all of yesterday. The police were able to find your phone. Only has a cracked screen from falling; nothing fell on it. We'll get it fixed later." I was about to ask where John was when he beat me to it. "John had work so he had to leave. We got the guy, in case you were wondering; zip-line broke and he broke his leg. Found him in the alley below with park of the building crushing his broken leg." I grimaced imaging it. "A man showed up and helped identify him. Apparently he was the next victim; was told to meet him on the roof." He was quiet a moment. "John asked me to say until you woke up... I told you, you were strong.. I can understand if you don't want to come to anymore cases, after what you've been through."
"I wouldn't give this up for the world; John's worried isn't he?"
"I told him you were fine."
"You don't want me to stop coming to cases, do you?"
"Course not," He said instantly. "John's worrying too much."
"Well I did have a building almost fall on me."
"And look at you, you're fine." Sherlock said lightly hitting my arm. I let out a gasp and clutched my arm. A look of panic rushed to his face. I held up both my hands.
"Kidding, kidding; I'm fine. I'm sorry." He glared at me. "Lighten up, Sherlock." I saidover pronouncing the 'o' and 'k'.
"Don't say my name like that." He said narrowing his eyebrows.
"Why not Sherlock?" He gave me a look. "Sher-" He put a finger to my lips. "I'll lick your finger if you don't move it." He moved it away slightly alarmed. "You didn't think I actually would, did you, Sherlock?" He suddenly put his hand over my mouth. I tried to say 'I'll lick your hand.' But it came out as mumbles. He raised an eyebrow. I licked his hand and he pulled away and stared at his hand for a moment before wiping it on the bed. "I warned you Sherlock." He gave me a playful glare. He stood up and was suddenly leaning over me, his face right by mine. "S-Sherlock?" He smirked as the heart monitor beeped slightly faster. I felt my cheek almost burning. He leaned down closer. I stared up at him. "Sherlo-mm" My eyes fluttered shut as he pressed his lips to mine. The heart monitor skipped a beat, beeping faster. He pulled away after a second with a smirk on his face. I looked up at him my face red as ever. He looked at me for a moment, just looking me in the eyes.
"See you when you come home." He said kissing my forehead before walking out of the room. I let out a breath and glared at the heart monitor which refused to beep any slower.
The next day I was lying in my hospital bed waiting for John to come get me to take me home when my phone trilled. I picked it up from the table next to the bed and looked at it.
They wouldn't let me in so I told them I was your boyfriend. Go w/ it.
-JM
I raised an eyebrow before putting my phone back.
Well he found out my personal number.
A second later Jim came in with one of the nurses.
"Hey babe." He said coming over and pecking me on the lips, taking my hand. The nurse left the room closing the door behind her.
"What are you doing here? If Sherlock or John see you here you're toast." I said pulling my hand away from his.
"Not much they can do in a hospital."
"Yeah but-"
"Don't worry so much." He paused for a second. "You've been ignoring my texts." He said almost sadly. "I had Sebastian see if you had left town again...he told me you were in the building that collapsed… are you okay?"
"You.. came just to see if I was okay?" I asked.
"I can be a caring guy when I want to be." He said shrugging slightly.
"I'm alright."
"I wasn't that worried anyway." He said shrugging it off and looking away.
"Sure you weren't." He gave me a playful glare before quickly leaning down and kissing me again.
"Where's your phone?" He asked.
"Right there." I said nodding my head to the table next to the bed.
"Your other phone." He said looking at me.
"Oh.. I left it home. You have this number too apparently, why not just text this phone."
"I'd rather you keep the one I gave you on you."
"You've got the GPS on it on haven't you; keeping an eye on me?"
"So I know you're safe." He said stroking my hair. "You've been avoiding me either way." He said narrowing his eyes as if trying to find an answer. I looked away. "Because of things John and Sherlock have said." I opened my mouth to respond when my phone trilled on the table. I grabbed it from the table.
On my way up. Just arrived.
-JW
"John's on his way up. Not sure if Sherlock's with him; you'd better go."
"That's not fair; I just got here." He whined. He leaned down, putting a hand on my cheek, and kissed me again. He did it too fast for me to turn my head. "Please.. Just carry the phone with you. You don't have to answer my texts. Just let me know you're safe." All I could do was nod. He gave me a small smile and left the room. A few minutes later John came into the room.
"Why did the nurse tell me your boyfriend stopped by?" He said tilting his head slightly. "It was him wasn't it?"
"I didn't tell him to come here… Can you get me out of here?" He sighed.
"Right.. I'll sign you out." He left the room and I got up to get my stuff together.
John signed me out and got us a cab back home. Once we got there I went to go down to my flat when John stopped me.
"Come up, I'll make you some tea." I nodded.
"Just give me a minute, I'll be right up." He nodded and went upstairs. I went down to my flat and opened the drawer of my night side table. I took out the IPhone and looked at new messages.

The last one was from a few minutes ago. I put the phone into my pocket before heading upstairs. I walked into the living and Sherlock was in his chair watching the news. He turned to look at me.
"Knew you didn't need to go to the hospital, you're fine. You were freaking out for nothing, John."
"Sherlock." John said looking away, walking away into the kitchen.
"Awe, Johnny, you were worried about me?" I asked walking over to the opening between the kitchen and living room.
"Of course. He was too." John said pointing to Sherlock, who quirked an eyebrow in confusion, before turning to make tea. "Pacing back and forth, muttering to himself, checking his phone every two minutes. You only calmed down when I got the call that I could pick her up."
"Sherlock worried? I'll believe that when I see it." I said walking into the kitchen and standing by the table.
"Considering Moriarty can enter your hospital room just by saying he's your boyfriend," Sherlock suddenly got up and walked over. "He has every reason to be."
"He visited you in the hospital?" Sherlock asked.
"He left before John came in." I said nodding.
"Why did he say he was your boyfriend?" Sherlock said narrowing his eyes slightly.
"The nurses wouldn't let him in I guess." I looked at Sherlock to see the frown on his face. "He's not my boyfriend, Sherlock." The frown seemed to fade and I would've sworn I saw the corners of his mouth turn up slightly in a small smirk.
"We'll have to keep a better eye on you."
"He and your brother do a fine job of that already." John looked to Sherlock. "He keeps an eye on him," I pointed to Sherlock. "And I'm with him most of the time." I clarified. John handed me my cup of tea and we went into the living room. "Anything going on with the news?" I asked sitting down in John's chair. John looked at me a moment before going to sit at the table. He took out his laptop.
"Nothing noteworthy." Sherlock said sitting in his chair and looking to the TV. I took a sip of my tea.
"I'm going to go do some shopping later today, you boys need anything?"
"Milk." Sherlock said simply.
"Alrighty then."
"Are you sure you're alright to go out?" John asked.
"John I'm fine. Look," I held my arms up. "two arms, two legs, 10 fingers and toes, 1 head; I'm good. Stop worrying." I said walking over to him. I kissed his forehead. "I'll be back later."
"Just be careful, Krista." I gave him a little salute. He rolled his eyes and me and I left.
Ending it there. Sorry this case was short but I have a bunch of original cases, so yeah. I like the title I picked for the next one. Although most people will find it stupid. Next one is one part otherwise each part would be REALLY short.
