"I'm coming too!" I heard John yell in the distance. He was quick to catch up. We got into a black car that I guessed was Lestrade's because got in the drivers side. He drove us to the police station and we saw a crying woman with a young child.
"Before Delilah and John go in there, what happened?" Sherlock asked.
"Her husband died. After this will show to the crime scene," Lestrade said.
Me and John walked into the area they had the mother and her daughter.
"I got the girl. Talk to the mom," I said and walked to the girl,"Hey Princess are you okay?"
"Someone hurt daddy," she said.
"Oh no. Do you know who he was?" I asked.
"No," she said tears in her eyes.
"Can you tell me what happened so we can find the bad guy and beat him up for you?" She described what she saw through her childish eyes.
"Alright that was a big, big help. Just from that I think we can find him," I said incouragingly. I looked up and nodded at John and we went back to Sherlock.
"Mmk, Dad we got a few things. The kid was in bed she couldn't go to sleep because she was afraid of a monster. She went downstairs to see a man in all black stab her dad she quietly went back to her room and pretended not to see anything. The kid's gutsy," I said Lestrade looked me.
"Did you just call him dad?" Lestrade said. Donovan stopped and looked over Lestrade's shoulder.
"Dad?" She questioned.
"Is that all you got from that? I adopted her yesterday. Why is everyone so shocked by this?" Sherlock questioned.
"Because you are supposed to be emotionless, " John chimed in," Back on the murder. Mum was asleep when she heard her huband scream. She ran down stairs and saw the murderer. He was tall and she said looked alot like you, but was certain you weren't him," John said.
"Jimmy tried and failed," I said, with a giggle.
"Not quite she saw his face bit she will be second guessing if it was me or not," we need to find the man quick.
My eyes widened, "What did Molly's ex look like?"
"Oddly like Sherlock,"John said. Sherlock an I bolted out the door and caught a taxi John and Sherlock on my tail.
We told the driver to head toward Bartholomew's.
Once we there we ran up flights of stairs to see Molly examining the body of the guy who was hired by Moriarty.
"Your ex, what is his number," Sherlock asked.
"I can call him now," she said.
"No, just a minute" I said.
"Just give us the number," Sherlock said. I snapped my fingers.
"No, call him and tell him you want you meet up with him tonight but still have something to do in the lab so tell him to meet you here at eight," I said. She nodded and did so.
"Sherlock go get my black dress and heels," I said, "I'm sorry I meant Daddy please." I smiled.
Molly gave me a confused look while on the phone with her ex.
Sherlock left and Molly got off the phone.
"Why did you call him daddy?" She asked.
"He adopted me yesterday," I said. She looked at me surprised.
"Yeah I know. Now what we are going to do. When Sherlock get's back I'm going to change. You have makeup right?" I asked. She nodded.
"Good because I don't," I said.
~time skip~
My back faced the door Sherlock and Molly we hidden and the clock hand moved. It was eight and he was here right on time.
"Molly," he said.
Molly read the script I gave her and she messed up a little but it was okay. She then said my que and gave Sherlock his que to block the door. I turned around.
"I'm not Molly," I said,"infact im Sherlocks daughter."
"D-daughter?" He stuttered.
"Yeah and we know it was you," I said.
He went to run and saw Sherlock. I hit record in my phone.
"So why did you do it?" Molly said coming out of hiding.
"Because, he took you away from me that's why!" He said pointing at Sherlock.
"He didn't do anything. She is the one inlove. No offense Molly," I said.
"But why? Why am I not good enough?" He asked.
"It's not your fault. Next time though, think before you act," I said.
"So who gave you the means to kill?" Sherlock asked.
"His name is Moriarty," he said crying. I stopped recording and sent the recording to Lestrade. I gave Sherlock his que to move and Lestrade and John came in. Lestrade arrested the ex boyfriend.
"If she wasn't adopted I'd think she really was his daughter," Molly said.
"What I'm adopted?"I said, fake crying,"Daddy why didn't you tell me?"
"Stop that,"Sherlock said.
"Or naw," I said with a smile. We went back to baker street. Sherlocks family had left and Marry was waiting on John.
"Well, I guess we'll see y'all when we see y'all," I said,"Oh Lilly a thank you to you for being an awesome wittle pickle,"I said making a baby voice at Lilly.
"Bye, don't get in to much trouble!" Marry said.
John, Marry, and Lilly left and went to bed.
