I walked out the back door of the government building, I paused for a second and checked to make sure I had everything.

My bag- an old converse All star bag that went across my shoulder

Money- 20 pounds from Mycroft but in 1 and 2 pound coins, less suspicious

Spare socks and undies- in my bag

Blanket- in bag

Flash light- In bag and with extra batteries

Tooth brush and paste- in bag along with a little mouthwash

Water-two bottles, in bag

Food- only have a little, some cans, jerky and energy bars also a spoon, in bag

Book- the hobbit, a real good classic

Great looks- never gonna lose those

I laughed a little inside at my joke and then I Began walking away from the building and down some alleys and made it to my favorite spot in no time. I decide to go a day or two without any excitement just to get used to living out here again. then I would go and hang around with some other people and see if I can find anyone in the homeless network and talk to them. I pulled out my book and started to read.

'At your service!" Said Bifur, Bofur and Bomber standing in a row. Then they hung up two yellow coats and a pale green one; and also a sky blue one with a long silver tassel. This last belonged to Thorin, an enormously important dwarf...'

I read for a while longer then tucked it back into my bag. I decided to try to sleep, it should be safe where I was, it was pretty tucked away, I was I an alley behind a dumpster In a pretty friendly looking neighborhood. I felt my eyelids droop as the lights of London light up all around me.

"John" I heard a deep voice say a few feet away from me "John, I think she might by dead." I stayed still recognizing the voice a small bit from eavesdropping once on Mycroft. I placed it fast. Sherlock.

"Don't get so excited" said another voice, probably 'Johns'

I felt someone lean over and feel my neck "nevermind, she's got a plause,let's go"

"We just gonna leave her?" Asked the man named John

"Yah,it's the same thing like we never found her" said Sherlock quickly

"But what if she's hurt?" Said John "she looks no more then fourteen"

"Well then, doctor that's up to you, might as well wake your patient" said Sherlock briskly

"Umm alright then" I heard john take a few steps forward and lean down. My mind worked quickly and I got and idea.

He pushed my shoulder gently, I stirred slowly and pretended to be alarmed. "Who-um-who who are you" I said groggily pushing my self away from him and slowly going into a sitting position with my back against the dumpster.

"I'm Dr. Watson and I wanted to know if you are okay?"

"I'm- I'm fine" I had a plan set in my head. I quickly stood up making a pained face. I threw my blanket into my bag. I limped away, well pretended to limp.

"Are you sure" said Dr.watson

"yah, yah I'm fine... Fine" I leaned up against the wall of the alley and used it as support.

"I really don't think you are" said Watson. I smiled to myself and continued my acting, By making it look like I took a bad step and fell.

"Owwww" I moaned just loud enough for John to hear, he rushed forward and picked me up and carried me. I was after all very light.

"Sherlock, sherlock we need to help her," John said walking over to Sherlock. I kept the pained expression on my face hoping it looked convincing.

"Alright then John but with your shoulder I'll carry her." Said Sherlock as though carrying a fourteen year old homeless girl was normal. Sherlock picked me up out of Johns arms and into his.
