2 years later.
Sherlock and Mycroft were playing chess at Sherlock's apartment.
"Why are we playing chess instead of Operation?" Sherlock asked Mycroft.
"Because you always intentionally shake your hand when it's my turn" Mycroft answered. Sherlock laughed.
"But, your way seems to be quite effective"
Mycroft frowned and asked "What way?"
"Imprison Eurus by love. Instead of imprisoning her in Sherrinford, now we just need to bring her to live with our parents and imprison her by love"
"Eurus will receive love from family, parents will also have her go to the theater together. Kill two birds with one stone" Mycroft said. Sherlock laughed.
"We also need to thank to Celina and Athena when they help us hide her" Sherlock said.
"Yes, but it seems we sinned more than I thought" Mycroft thought and said.
"Now I know the reason why you work in it. Clearly, you're criminal mastermind"
"A necessary evil, Sherlock. And Eurus is helping them a lot". Sherlock laughed.
"But why are you still sitting here? Didn't you intend to say goodbye to me?" Mycroft asked.
"You're sitting here, why do I need to say goodbye to you?"
Mycroft looked at Sherlock and frowned. Sherlock smiled.
"Let's go Sherlock. It's about time"John came out and told Sherlock.
"I don't go anywhere. If you want, you can go alone" Sherlock still staring at the chessboard and said.
John looked at Sherlock.
He came close to Sherlock, sat down and said "Look at me, Sherlock. I know you're disappointed but what you do won't be able to change the truth. And today is that day, let's come to say goodbye to him"
Sherlock looked at John and remembered what happened two years ago.
------------
"We've found them" rescuer said.
Sherlock and John quickly ran to their place. Rescue workers brought Mycroft and Eurus out.
"Eurus" Sherlock help Eurus and tried to wake her up. Eurus gradually regained consciousness.
"Save him, save him" she whispered.
Sherlock turned to look at his brother "Mycroft"
------------
After a few hours of surgery, the doctor came out and said with a disappointment. "Sorry but you brought him here too late. We did a lot of tests and we regret to say that his brain was dead"
Eurus knelt on the ground and didn't say a word. Her tears stopped falling when she knew it couldn't help her erase this harsh truth.
Sherlock looked far away and walked in silence.
And 2 years, 2 years was the time they decided to stop his life if he didn't wake up.
------------
"Sherlock" John called him. Sherlock was startled.
"I won't go" Sherlock pouted, turned to look at John and said.
"Don't be like that, Sherlock. Death does not mean over. Look at me, I was very distressed by Mary's death. But I know, I know she wants me to continue living. And I continue to live, for me and for those who care about me"John looked at Sherlock and said softly. Sherlock turned to look at Mycroft, Mycroft was also staring at his brother.
