Merlock (Mermaidlock) - Part 7

Sherlock frowned. He just sat and sulked. There was nothing else to do. It was only 2 days untill the wedding and he loved some one else. Another boy, a human boy!  Everything was going wrong.

He leaned on the window sill and looked blankly out to the forests of blue and green. He was snapped back to reality as he heard a small squeak. A tiny orange sea horse was bumping into his ear in an attempt to get his attention.

"Lestrade, what are you doing?" The tiny sea horse backed away and looked Sherlock dead in the eyes.

"It's John. Moriarty got him." He squeaked.

"Shit!" Sherlock hissed as he raced out of the window.

Moriarty was a class A criminal. He was a phycotic lunatic with the ability to do pretty much what ever he wanted to. He was a slippery eal. Hard to catch and very dangerous too.

"Will he be ok?" Lestrade squeaked, scared.

"God knows what he will do to the helpless human!"

Sherlock had made friends with the little orange sea horse in the rock pool. Lestrade was abondoned by some kids in there and was unable to get back to sea. Since he was able to talk to the sea creatures, Sherlock helped him get back to sea. The two worked together to watch out for trouble, and of course John too.

Sherlock knew exactly where to find John and Moriarty. Alot of people knew where the infamous James Moriarty lived, they just never dared to go there because they knew what he was capable of.

He swam as fast as he tail could take him. The cave where he would find John and James was only a few miles off shore.

Meanwhile back at the cave, James was having alot of fun...

"Please....I'm begging you!" John squirmed. Seb drew closer, a whip in hand. There was no way he could avoid the painful lashes. His hands here tied and a weight hung around his tail.

"Stop!" He cried out as he was whipped. He hissed as the saltyness of the sea stung his wounds.

"Mmm, don't worry. We will eventually, but you will probably be dead when that happens." Cackled James. "Oh, and about Sherlock? He will almost definatly end up dead too." He teased, a smug grin on his pale face.

"Don't you dare touch him!" Two voices called. One came from John, the other from an very angry Sherlock.

Moriarty pouted and then laughed.

"You guys are too cute! Aren't humans adorable?" He asked Sherlock, still smiling. "He followed me all the way here. He even let me kiss him!" He hissed.

Sherlock scowled. He had never warned John of Moriarty and was regretting it massivley. He had also not told him about the whole biting thing either. It works in a similar way to how it works with vampires, exept the venom wears out ofter a while depending on how much is injected.

"Leave him alone." Sherlock growled, Lestrade hiding sheepishly behind his master's shoulder. "You wanted me, now let him go." He tried to reason.

"Oh but that isn't any fun! You obviously love this boy! You gave him you engagment shell for god's sake!" James whinned, poking the pink shell hung around John's neck.

"This was an engagment shell?" John stammered. "You basicly proposed to me Sherlock!" John cried, it was then he discovered that you can cry under water. John's heart throbbed and he just wanted to embrace Sherlock and hold him close.

Sherlock nodded slowly and sighed. It was all true. He hated Irene and would have much rather married John in any situation. So he gave his engagment shell to John, whether he liked it or not, John was engaged to Sherlock now.

They had only known each other for less that two days. I guess it's what you call love at first sight.

"Awe, look at you two! You're killing me!" James hummed.

"What do you want from me?" Sherlock demanded.

"Oh not much. Well, you see, you know you're gonna marry Irene and all that? That would kinda make you the future king, soooooo....I'll let John go, if you do exactly as I say when you're king. Got it? Because if you don't, I will hurt him." The Irish merman smiley playfully and swam over to John and traced the line of one of the gashes with his finger while he spoke.

Sherlock snarled and glared at the phycotic creature before him.

"You repel me." He growled visiously.

"C'mon Sherly! What do ya say?"

Duh Duh Duuuuuh! Cliff hanger!
