BBC Sherlock imagines

The tardis meets baker street#Part3

A few hours later the five of them are in a dimly lit room. John, Bill and Nardole are all tied up to each other, Bill is unconscious and John and Nardole are desperately trying to wake her up, despite their own throbbing heads from where's they'd previously been knocked out too. Sherlock and the doctor are tied together on the other side of the room with even tighter restraints. Knowing they'd be harder to knock out, their attacker drugged them instead so had no head injuries. The door creaked open....

"Did you seriously think that it would be that easy to get rid of us. I mean hello, they've got me helping" a taunting, Irish accent called out into the darkness.

"Hate the Irish" the doctor whispered in an attempt to lighten the mood but Sherlock didn't reply; a sick feeling was growing in his stomach. "Oh come on, we're not all bad.

He explained, now stepping into the newly made spotlight directly in the centre of the room. His deep brown glaring eyes and mischievous smirk sent chills down Bill's back, "who are you?" She demanded but not very confidently. "Oh dear, sorry. Where are my manners. Jim Moriarty, hi."
"Now, I apologise for the wait, I'll get to it fairly soon. But first I want you to meet someone- my queen" he called. The door opened again and the sound of heels tapping the floor echoed around the room...
