Sherlock began to make his way towards the window. Suddenly he saw Strange and began walking speedily towards him, head held high, a grin stretched across his face. Until he spotted an odd creature. It was slithering very close.

Sherlock started running. Running like his life depended on it. Which appeared to be the case. Though it seemed quite unlikely that he could outrun such a thing. From then on, chaos ensued as more of these creatures started pouring in. Strange was no longer guarding the window. But instead trying to help his new friend. Sherlock continued running while Strange trailed behind him. And out of nowhere, a relic escaped from one of the displays.

The glass shattered to hundreds of tiny fragments. And the relic contained was gone. Until Strange looked right in front of him. He could hardly believe it.

"Holmes! The Wand of Watoomb has chosen you," he yelled from behind.

Sherlock spun around and the wand omitted millions of bright orange sparks. They hit the creature and rendered it unconscious. Sherlock's eyes widened in disbelief and curiosity. Then he responded to Doctor Strange.

"Oh my bad, I didn't quite catch that. I was too busy being hunted down by a murderous snake hybrid," deadpanned Sherlock.

Suddenly a cluster of the creatures started charging towards Sherlock and Strange. Together they began to defeat all of them, one by one.

"If a drug is truly causing this hallucination-"

Sherlock pointed the wand towards a group of them and sent them flying backwards

"I've got to get more of it!"

Strange took out the rest of them and Sherlock started to collapse from exhaustion.

"Are you alright?" Strange asked as he knelt down beside Sherlock.

"Oh I'm just splendid!" Sherlock replies, lying flat on the floor, adrenaline pumping through his blood.
