Your POV
Bea walked in first once they opened the door the rest of us followed. "Beatrice, Y/N time for you too to speak to your old acquaintance" Sherlock said he handed Bea a bag with a Sringe that had a white liquid in it. A guard opened the cell and me and Bea walked inside. Arthur looked at us "What are you two here for" He asked "Let's just say we need a favor" I said he touched the wall "They won't let me have a widow, on account on the bird" Arthur said "Yeah, I... I figured" Bea said "There's a man coming, Arthur... a bad man, he's going to try and get into your head and find out where the Rip is" Bea said "I don't know what that is, A Rip" Aurthur asked "It's where your powers came from" Bea said, she walked over to him and sat next to him, "The things you did were terrible, Arthur, but I know how these powers twist people, because I know you're a really good man" Bea said putting her hand on his shoulder. He nodded, "Once he's been in your head" Bea said and handed him the syringe "We want you to put him under" Bea said, he took the syringe.

Spike had gotten inside the palace and was now flirting with Louise. "Honestly, I could take you to some traverns where the music plays until morning... you know, afterwards we could go on a little walk down by the river, I'd commission an oarsman, you know, take us out on the water, watch the sunrise while we have some breakfast" Spike said "I like you" Louise said looking him up and down, "Of course you do, your eyes ain't painted on" Spike said they both chuckled. Leo walked into the room and saw that Spike was there, "Spike, What are you doing here" Leo asked walking over to him "Your sister let me in... you didn't tell me you had such a... charming sibling" Spike said and he looked at Louise, "You didn't really tell us anything about yourself, thought, did ya" Spike said "Louise, give Spike and I a few minutes alone, would you" Leo asked "But we were just having a conversation" Louise was cut off "Louise" Leo said "Hmm" She said and got up "Mmm" She said and looked at Spike before leaving. Spike walked to Leo, "The city is getting destroyed, if we don't find this Rip, and pronto, that dear old mum of yours, mate, she won't have a kingdom to rule over" Spike said looking at the painting of the queen of London. Leo walked over to a window and pulled the curtain and looked, "I used to look out of this window and wonder what excitement I was missing out on, it didn't take me long to realize that London is a cruel city" Leo said Walking away from the window "It's treated you and your friends terribly and yet here you are trying to save it" Leo said "Me and my friends, so what, you're not part of us anymore" Spike asked "I'm not sure I ever was... maybe I just enjoyed the idea that I could be someone else for a while" Leo said "So, it was all a big act" Spike asked, Leo stood silent, "Bullshit" Spike said. "I had to pretend to be someone else to hang around with you all, you'd have never have liked me if you knew who I was... perhaps you should leave before I have you removed" Leo said, Spike looked at Leo, turned around and began to leave but then turned back around and walked back to him, "Before I go... I just wanna hear you say it, tell me you're not my Mate" Spike said "Don't be stupid... you're not my friend" Leo said "And that Jessie's not your friend" Spike said, Leo said nothing "Now say it say, Jessie's not my friend" Spike yelled "Jessie's not my friend" Leo said" And that Y/N means nothing to you" Spike said, Leo began to tear up. "You know I can't say that, you know I can't" Leo said "Then what's your problem, then" Spike yelled "My problem is that I just lost the only friends I've ever had, my problem is that I, I don't belong anywhere, not here, not there, nowhere, that's because no matter where I go, I'm always me" Leo yelled and he say down on the coach. "I'm too broken to belong" Leo said, Spike walked to him "That's why you belong to us" Spike said and Leo looked at him.
Your POV
We waited until the Linen man showed up, me and Bea where on the stairs, while Watson and Sherlock where below us and Gregson was by the door, "Remind you of the good old days, John, out working a case... how did we get so bloody old" Sherlock said "Speak for yourself" Watson said "I feel old anyway, like a dull blade... barely capable of opening a letter" Sherlock said "I never told you what happened with the collector case" Watson said "You solved it" Sherlock asked "Mmm... it was Edith Dubois, the head botanist, she was... she was trying to build her husband out of others people's body parts, listen, I just wanted to tell you... you were right, she lied to me, it was Snowdonia Hawkweed, sorry I was so easily fooled... sorry if I made you feel like you weren't incredible, you are incredible" Watson said "How were you to know" Sherlock said "Thought you'd be over the moon, learning you were right after all these years" Watson said "Yes, well, Um... there's more to life than being right, I suppose... I wish I could go back and tell my younger self that, I wish... I wish I could've been a better man, now look at me... I may not be the hero of the story anymore, John... but I Can at least, help" Sherlock said, Bea looked a them and then looked at me, I nodded and she left to join them. "You cold" Sherlock asked "No" Bea said "You're cold" Sherlock said "You can wear my scarf" Sherlock said "I don't want your scarf" Bea said "You're as stubborn as your bloody mother, take it" Sherlock said "Fine" Bea said, I looked at the roof and wondered if Leo was okay.
