We arrived at home john was sat at the table as i walked past, him and into the hallway to my room, but i see sherlock's door was open, he was hurling clothes across the room.

"What are you doing?" i ask

"Going into battle, y/n. I need the right armour." sherlock shouts, i look at john and he shrugs.

Sherlock walks into view wearing a yellow hi-vis jacket "no" he says simply, taking it off in a rush.

**********

We where sat in a taxi, on the way to irene adler's house.

"So, what's the plan?" john asks

"We know her address."

"What, just ring her doorbell?" i ask

"Exactly."  sherlock says "Just here, please."

The taxi pulls over.

"You didn't even change your clothes." john pints out.

"Then it's time to add a splash of colour."

we climb out of the cab and sherlock leads us down a narrow street.

" Are we here?" john asks

" Two streets away, but this'll do."

"For what?"

" Punch me in the face." sherlock says, gesturing to his cheek.

"Punch you?"

"Yes. Punch me, in the face. Didn't you hear me?"

"I always hear 'punch me in the face' when you're speaking, but it's usually sub-text."

"Oh, for God's sakes." sherlock sighs and punches john straight in the face, i stand back and watch them fight.

John immediately punches sherlock back "Ow!"

"Thank you. That was – that was ..."

John suddenly attacks sherlock, getting him into a headlock.

"Okay! I think we're done now, John!" sherlock says, choking

"You wanna remember, Sherlock: I was a soldier. I killed people."

"You were a doctor!"

"I had bad days!"

**********

Sherlock rings the door bell "Hello?" a voice says from the intercom.

"Ooh! Um, sorry to disturb you. Um, we've just been attacked!" sherlock says, wrapping me into a side hug. "Um, um, I think they ... they took my wallet and, um, and our phones. Umm, please could you help us?" 

"I can phone the police if you want."

"Thank you, thank you! Could you, please?"

"Oh, would you ... would you mind if I just waited here, just until they come? Thank you. Thank you so much."

The door opens a lady lets us in "Thank you!" sherlock says, still in character looking around "er, ohh!"

" I – I saw it all happen. It's okay, I'm a doctor." john says, closing the door " Now, have you got a first aid kit?"

"In the kitchen."

"thank you"

Me and John find the kitchen and get the med supplies, being a bowl and a few napkins.
