GO JOHN ESCAPE, ESCAPE, ESCAPE!!!

I was not expecting Fletcher to get whacked, is that why Barrymore left? Was that his breakfast appointment?

.... so.... chapter 10....

[pottsfanatic]

Oh, look at you. Got it in one. LOL Neat how that worked out eh?

[darkhorse_99]

YES! You must write more after this story. *Willy Wonka voice:* You must, you must.

Well, that depends on my dreams I think. I can't take all the credit for this fic. I dreamed it. I'm putting in filler here and there, of course but the main story was all my subconscious. (What does that say?? LOL)

I will try though. I'm having too much fun.

Oh! So, Fletcher's dead. Interesting. I only vaguely saw that coming as I had been sufficiently distracted by you torturing John. LOL! Poor Fletcher, if I remember correctly, he was rather nice looking.

Excellent chapter as always. I really REALLY hope someone other than the bad guys find John. And soon. It sounds like he's lost a lot of blood. :-( Poor thing.

OH!! Good that Sherlock's photos seem to be a boon for Mycroft. :-) Hopefully he'll regain his position and become their helpful contact again. As I said in the first chapter. Mycroft seems rather like a cat to me and is bound to land on his feet once all this shakes out.

Mycroft is a favourite of mine. He seems to be all non-chalant but he LOVES his position and likes to Lord it over everyone so for him, it's a necessity to get his position back.

As for Fletcher, he shouldn't have called Moriarty to tell him he wouldn't capture John. He thought he would understand, but this is Moriarty we're talking about here. LOL

I've got such a great scene for Watson coming up. He and Sherlock. I cried ... and I wrote it... but I'm a sap so who knows. LOL

Thanks so much for continuing to read and review.

Oh, that's awesome. I love all things Holmes. Have done since I was a wee little thing. I just like how it makes you think. Have you seen the BBC show? I'm sure you've seen the RDJ movies right?
I can't wait to see the US take on it too with Lucy Liu and Jonny Lee Miller.

I will have to admit though, I'm a bit obsessed with the BBC version. I think Benedict plays the character a lot like Jeremy Britt did back in the day.

All that said. I do feel a bit bad for Doyle that he was writing the same character in his 60's that he'd written in his 30's
