Chapter 4:

"Are you ready to go?" Sara asks Sam and Dean.

Dean is already standing by the door anxiously,"Yeah, let's go!"

Sherlock walks out of his room with a frown,"Go?"

Sara nods and picks up Rosie from the ground,"I am going to show Sam and Dean around London."

A week has passed since Sara encountered Tom and so far they have not seen or heard anything of the man. Sam and Dean found a nearby hotel, but they have still spent most of their time at 221b and have not had the time to see much of London yet.

"You're not going," Sherlock announces. He then walks into the kitchen to make some tea.

Sara follows after him with a frown,"Excuse me? This is not your decision-"

"My brother is out there. You really think being a tourist is a smart idea?" Sherlock barks, turning to glare at her.

Rosie flinches at his harsh tone and cuddles up more to Sara. The vampire glares back at him,"I will have both Sam and Dean with me. I am confident that the three of us will be able to overcome him."

Sherlock focuses his gaze on the two men standing awkwardly in the living room. Looking back to his girlfriend,"I do not know them, so I do not trust them."

She frowns,"Isn't my trust of them enough?"

Sherlock's face softens,"I just want to protect you. Tom is not someone to be taken lightly."

Sara sighs,"I know, but hiding for the rest of my life is not the answer. Tom won't try anything in public, and Mycroft has eyes all over the city looking for him. I am honestly surprised he has lasted this long undetected."

Sherlock turns to the stove and removes the kettle. Biting his lip,"I will join you then."

"Huh?"

Sherlock turns back to her,"I will accompany you four. Being able to protect you myself will put me greatly at ease."

Sara smiles (AN: Love that song by the way) ,"Okay. Let's get going then."

"Yay!" Rosie squeals.

Sherlock follows them out to the living room. "How does John feel about Rosie coming?"

Sara shrugs,"He was a bit concerned but I assured him she would be safe with us, and she will, even more so with you coming now."

He nods and grabs his coat and scarf from the hanger on the flat door.

"Sherlock is coming," Sara tells her friends.

"...Cool," Dean mutters. He isn't too fond of the sociopath. He has heard of the pain he has brought Sara, and frankly Dean hasn't seen the great man everyone has told him about. He has seen a child-like man who shoots walls when he is bored and ignores everyone else half of the time

Sam elbows his brother and gives Sara a smile,"That's great."

Soon they are in the midst of central London, checking out all the tourist sites. Their first stop was Hyde park, then the London eye, and the Palace of Westminster. Dean and Sam loved every place, Rosie and Sara enjoyed them as well, and of course Sherlock was bored as ever.

"Lighten up," Sara tells him as they walk to their next destination.

He just pulls his hood higher over his head and lets out a huff.

Sara narrows her eyes at him,"You didn't have to come."

He rolls his eyes,"What was I supposed to do? Leave you alone with those two?" He glares at the two Americans walking in front of them.
