Cold Obsidian Eyes

London, after Moriarty's attempt to take over the country, is left in the hands of ruthless and power hungry gangs. Sherlock Holmes, scientist, found himself kidnapped, rescued, and dragged into the fight by a stranger and his unusual band of followers. But Sherlock has a secret that could spell death for all of them. An AU told in 221B format. Rated M for later themes.

Kings Cross, St Pancras, Euston. One by one the main line terminus stations exploded, but that wasn't the end of it.

Paddington, Victoria, Charing Cross, Cannon Street, Waterloo and London Bridge Stations were next.

Within an hour the three remaining main commuter stations were bombed.

The London Ambulance Service and every hospital in and around central London were thrown into confusion. With twelve major incidents and hundreds of casualties the capital's infrastructure was slowly grinding to a halt.

Scotland Yard called in everyone who was on leave, and pulled officers back from other cases in an effort to cover this new and frightening development in the ongoing gang warfare.

In a room that had been turned into a command centre, Mycroft received the first intelligence about the bombs as he was discussing strategy with Stevenson. The CTC Commander picked up the phone to mobilise his intelligence cells, while the government official reached for his mobile to ring his brother.

Frowning as it finally went to voicemail, he tried John, only for the same thing to happen. After a moment's pause he stepped across to open the door and request Matthew Reader to get him the landline number for 221B Baker Street.

Behind him, on the large television on the wall the news camera teams filmed a London that resembled the blitz.
