John tried to focus on everything that was happening. Sherlock and Joan had left, and it seemed as if everything had been their responsibility. Not to mention the disappearance of Samuel that made him too distressed. His children were bred to be hunters and knew how to defend themselves and take good care of themselves. But that didn't mean that John was not worried anymore.
Suddenly someone knocked on the door of his office waking him from his thoughts.
"You can come in," he said.
"I'm sorry." Emily Holmes walked into the room. "I know the situation is difficult with Samuel, but I have news about my father. He sent me a letter so we could keep an eye on Artie even more. It looks like he'll be in danger in the next few days.
"What do you mean?" "John stood alert." "Where's Sherlock's letter?"
"It's here with me," Emily replied. "What I mean is, Mr. and Mrs. Doyle will travel and stay away to visit a sick relative. They thought it best not to take Arthur with them so they asked me and my mother to take care of him."
"Well, I didn't see much of anything," the doctor said, "where is the danger?"
"Let me finish godfather," Emily rephrased, "he was invited to participate in a poetry reciting contest and my mother and I will accompany him. The event will happen on a field near Stonyhurst. I think the murderer behind Arthur can attack him at the event."
"Murderer?" John exclaimed in surprise, "so someone wants to kill a little boy? But why? What did your father find out?"
"I don't know why, but I just know that my father discovered that Artie is on the lookout for a killer named Yancy Calum."
"I'll go with you on the day of the presentation then Emily," he said decisively, "I know Mary can take good care of everything here."
"Thank you Godfather," Emily said and left the Watson's house.
