Long Time, No See

Vivian Norbury

I made Rose come out after I took all the weapons Ajay had and I also took all of Rose's weapons as well. Rose then told her version of what happened that night. "Old habits die hard." Sher whispered to me. I looked at him confused. "When Mycroft and I fought you would threaten to smack us if we didn't make up."

"Oh, that." I whispered back, "I guess they do."

"That doesn't explain what I heard." Ajay told her.

"Ajay, what did you hear?" I asked him.

"What did I hear?" He questioned, "Ammo. Every day as they tore into me. Ammo. Ammo. Ammo. Ammo." His hands begin to tremble, "We were betrayed!"

"And they said it was her?" Sherlock asked him.

"You betrayed us!" Ajay said to Rose.

"They said her name?" Sher asked firmly.

"Yeah, they said it was the English woman." Ajay said.

"Oh my god." I said out loud. "Why didn't you tell me that?!"

"What?" Ajay asked.

"Rose isn't Ammo." I told him, "The puzzle I never solved: Who is Ammo? That narrows it down so much."

"Wait, you've been investigating Ammo?" Rose asked me.

"You should know by now I don't trust anyone I can't research." I told them. "In this case Ammo isn't short for ammunition, in this case it's Amo. A-m-o which is Latin for 'I love'." Then it clicked, "We need to go back to London. Now."

"What? Why?" John questioned.

"Lady Smallwood." I said and I saw Sherlock's eyes go wide.

"I'll call Mycroft." Sherlock said.

"Ajay, you need to go into hiding, again." I told him, "You know how to contact me."

Airplane back to London..............

John and Rose sat in the row in front of Sherlock and I. Despite there being three seats Mary took the isle seat and John took the seat closest to the window, leaving a seat in between them. I sat next to Sherlock, holding his hand as we had a whispered conversation. "How did you meet them?"

"I was undercover, protecting a friend of mine, undercover as his girlfriend." I sighed, "They were contracted to kill him. I stopped them by doubling the payment then they found out who I was they gave me an offer I couldn't refuse. I said yes so that I didn't have to keep moving country to country."

"Anything else I should know?" He asked me.

"Let me think, I told you about Irene Adler, you know about James, you know about Garcia and Shane, and you know about A.G.R.A then after that I A.G.R.A. is when I told you I was alive. So nope, there is nothing else to tell." I told him. "Garcia did tell me that Irene Adler is dead."

"That is........... surprising, are you okay?" Sher asked me.

"I'm fine." I shrugged.

"Yeah, sure you are." He said, looking at me. "You know receptionists know everything."

"What do you mean?" I asked him.

"Lady Smallwood has a receptionist, Vivian Norbury." He told me. "She was there when they were talking about the video of someone else 'killing' Magnussen."

"Would make sense, she has access to a bunch of classified information." I commented.

"I love you, Sammy." He smiled slightly at me.
