"You're late." Came a voice from behind the only gas pump left standing. Sherlock walked around it to find a man sitting in a beach chair holding a pistol.
"Marcus Adams, I presume." Sherlock said as a form of greeting.
"Nope, sorry," the man replied, "But I work for him now. Ever since you killed my boss."
"Your boss?" Sherlock asked.
"He never talked about me? I'm offended." He started playing with the pistol, turning it over in his hand. "I'm Sebastian Moran, number one assassin for James Moriarty. I had a gun trained on your doctor friend that one day."
He stood up "that's not why we're here though. You want answers. I assume you already know why Marcus killed your brother."
"Mycroft was determined to send him to jail, so Marcus needed him out of the way." Sherlock said.
"Exactly. You know why, now you want to know how." Sebastian reached in his pocket and pulled out a piece of paper wrapped around a small object and handed it to Sherlock. "You'll find out how," he started backing away, "but it won't do you any good. 'Cause you'll be dead." With that, Sebastian turned on his heel and walked away.
Sherlock watched him for a moment before looking down at the odd package in his hand. When he opened it, a hair clip fell out. "Molly" he said under his breath. There was a message written on the paper. It read: "Here's some motivation. Her life for yours. Her flat. Now."
