Sherlock's POV

Mary and I sped down the street on our - stolen - motorcycle. Mary lifted her phone over my shoulder so that I could see the next text message.

8 minutes and counting...

Suddenly, a sound of loud revving comes up behind us. I turn around a bit, taking my eyes off of the road, to see (Y/N) coming up from behind us on a motorcycle.

She signaled off to us and nodded, coming up to the left side of us. I smirked at her, but I quickly slammed on the brakes of the motorcycle when I saw police tape blocking a part of the road. "Damn!"

"Shit..." (Y/N) said, voice muffled by her helmet. "Down here!" She quickly turned the motorcycle over to a walkway between two buildings. One of the policemen uselessly chases after her as I follow, trying to keep up with her by constantly revving my motorcycle.

The path descended down a long flight of stairs, but we head straight down them, our helmets bouncing up and down on the top of our heads, tugging my curls a bit. We turn on the road at the bottom of them, which happens to be The Mall. We race onwards the Buckingham Palace.

The next text message dings in Mary's pocket as once again she lets me see it.

Better hurry
Things are
Hotting up here...

We continue down the path, but our speed becomes impeded as we cross the bridge and are blocked by a slow-moving lorry. "UGH!" (Y/N) yells and slams her hands on the handles of her bike.

Stay of execution
You've got two minutes

"Two minutes." I whispered loud enough for (Y/N) to hear. I began to get worried, desperately looking around to see if there was any other way.

"No. We can do it in under that." (Y/N) nodded towards me confidently and took off straight down into a pedestrian underpass.

"(Y/N)!"

"Sherlock just go!" Mary demanded, revving up the motorcycle herself. I nearly screamed as it almost fell over, but I took off towards (Y/N).

We charge through the underpass, finally getting to a fence surrounding the park near The Less.

What a shame Mr. Holmes
John was quite a guy

"What does it mean?" Mary yelled in my ear as I saw the bonfire about to happen, the onlookers around cheering and yelling.

"Oh my god."

"John!" (Y/N) screamed, throwing herself off her motorcycle and sprinting towards the opening of the fence.

"Jump off!" I yelled towards Mary as I hurled myself off of the motorcycle. She jumped off right away and started to run after me to.

Suddenly, people started to scream; I assumed they heard John's screams. (Y/N) pushed everyone out of the way frantically, screaming bloody murder as she got towards the fire.

"JOHN!" She screamed, diving towards the fire and getting down on her knees.

As I was getting closer, I could hear John's cries of help. (Y/N) dug her arms into the fire, ripping out pieces of wood and throwing them aside.

"Help!" I heard John's muffled screams and got down beside (Y/N), helping her with the wood. She frantically throws pieces of wood behind her, making a path for herself.

Finally, she sees John's arms and cries out happily, pulling John out as he cries one last time. I help her tug him out until he's all the way out. He lies there completely dazed and covered in ash. (Y/N) looms over him, gently shaking his shoulder and crying a bit.

"John? John!" I yell, gently patting his face as his eyes slowly start to shut.

"Hey, John." (Y/N) said soothingly, squeezing his hand a bit. In a few moments he knocked out completely, and (Y/N) looked up at me with teary eyes. "What are we going to do?"

"How about we bring him back to the flat? He can rest there and regain his strength." She nodded and slung John's arm around her neck.

"Let's get him on my motorcycle. I'll drive him home." (Y/N) said as I helped her pick him up and place him on her abandoned motorcycle. "Thanks." She said, looking up at me. She calmed down.

"I'll meet you back at the flat... I'm going to drive Mary home." She nodded and placed a kiss on my lips. She pulled back and put on her helmet, smirking at me.

She revved up her motorcycle with John on the back. And she drove towards 221B.

I turned back towards Mary and took her hand. "C'mon, let's get you home."
