Okay, review time!

Krystal Black- Well, you'll find out what Watson thinks in this chapter, and I'm glad you think that they had at something that remotely resembles balloons back then.

Midnight Moonbeam-Thank you. I thought it was funny, too!

Chapter Six: Burnt Journals and Worm Sandwiches

When Watson walked into the sitting room, he found Holmes standing near the fireplace with a burnt looking book in a pair of tongs.

"Holmes, what are you hold…" Watson trailed off, coming closer and seeing that the book was one of his journals.

Holmes knew that Watson was going to think he had caught his journal on fire, and his expression clearly showed it.

"Why did you do this," Watson asked incredulously.

"Watson, I didn't do it," Holmes began.

"Don't tell me 'Rover did it,'" Watson interrupted.

Just then, Mrs. Hudson announced lunch, and Holmes realized that Rover had gone. Where has he gone, Holmes wondered.

Here I am!

"Rover, where were you," Holmes asked quietly.

In the kitchen, helping Mrs. Hudson fix lunch.

"Help? As in actually help," Holmes asked dubiously.

Depends on what you call "actually help."

"Come on, Holmes, let's eat, we can finish our discussion afterwards," said Watson, making his way to the table.

Holmes followed, and Rover, who didn't need to eat, or any of that, went to Holmes's room to 'chill.'

Holmes joined Watson at the table, and soon found out that Mrs. Hudson had made sandwiches for lunch. They both took a bite of the sandwiches, and found that they were very chewy.

After a few more chews, they both noticed that there were worms in between the bread!

Rover, Holmes thought, thinking back to his last conversation with the invisible man. I should have seen this coming after Rover said he was 'helping Mrs. Hudson' fix lunch.

Mrs. Hudson came out then, and said, "What's wrong with my sandwiches, gentlemen?"

"My dear Mrs. Hudson did you intentionally put worms in them," asked Holmes, knowing the answer.

"No. There was a jar of worms on the counter, and I might've accidentally put them in there, thinking it was something else," Mrs. Hudson answered.

"I'll just throw these out, and make some more," the landlady continued, picking up the tray of worm sandwiches.

"No," both Watson and Holmes said in unison.

"What," asked Mrs. Hudson, turning around.

"We mean, no, that's quite all right, Mrs. Hudson. We're perfectly full now, right, Holmes," asked Watson.

Holmes nodded his agreement.

"Well, if you're sure…" said Mrs. Hudson, backing up into the kitchen.

After Mrs. Hudson went back into the kitchen, Watson continued where he left off before lunch.

"Now, Holmes, I think we need to have a little talk about Rover."

Just then, a young man came in, and said, "Mr. Holmes, I really need your help."

A/N: Well, that's it for chapter six! In the next chapter, we learn more about the young man, and Watson talks to Holmes about Rover. R/R!
