All the stories? All those rumors? They were all true - well, most of them. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was my grandfather's best friend, so, he'd know that side of the story very well. - The Voice I Call Steve 

So, we are sent to a different form of child labor, where we solve mysteries with whatever grey matter we have, eh? - Markeith 

Come on, lass. You must have heard the stories? You do recall who was Holmes's greatest enemy? Surely you must have heard of him? - James Moriarty, Professor Emeritus of Chemical Engineering 

*.*.*.*

It was a snap decision when she accepted the terms given to her by The Voice. It was either that, or remain in the system that abused her. She wasn't even sure until she was brought to a mansion of some sort and was slowly being deprogrammed from her previous lifestyle. She became Markeith, one of the many adopted into the system of Sherlock's Home, House for the Orphaned. 

Sent on one of the bigger missions with her partner, things began to turn for the worse when a man that went by the name of Moriarty began to surface, sending cryptic messages and little riddles that involved the assassination of the Queen herself. It further goes south when a mysterious man called Cedric Marton decided to help her and her team of rebels with a cause. To help matters worse, she couldn't help but feel attracted to both - Moriarty and Marton. But, will she let her heart be ruled over, or would she let her mind choose her own path?

"Why did you do it?" "Hmmm" "Why did you do it if you loved him so much?" "Because sometimes aunt Rebekah, love, isn't enough" According to Seraphina Von Potter, insanity was a relative term; after all, you never know who has been locked in what cage. Seraphina had a locked cage too-one that she keeps locked deep in her mind because pretending it doesn't exist is much easier than acknowledging it. After all, one doesn't come out sane when you grow up with a soul shard stuck in your head-an old headmaster who raised her like a genuine pig for slaughter. The British wizarding world has always put Dumbledore on a pedestal; they worshipped the ground he walked on, and maybe it was one of the reasons that they were selectively blind to all his faults and shortcomings, but Dumbledore knew better. He knew that, contrary to popular belief, he was no match for Tom Riddle. He was desperate, and when he saw a young child with the bluest eyes he had ever seen that sang with unhinged power and the blood of the oldest vampire family, he couldn't help but take her. Yet, despite all of his plans, Dumbledore didn't account for Peverell. He wasn't prepared for the kind of madness that ran in the blood of a Peverell, lest one be as powerful as her. After all, Hope Mikaelson, or Seraphina Von Potter, has always had a very special connection with death. Death was there when she was born, and she was there when Hope became Seraphina.

[Sherlock x Female OC] The thing is, there is an empty, gaping hole at the base of John's throat where his overwhelming guilt and periodic bouts of torturous grief used to be. It would be so easy to... to be angry and punch a hole through the wall, through the foam of his pillow -- drive his fist through Sherlock's heart. But he remembers; in the most tragic and inopportune of fashion, remembers how angry he had been when Sherlock had jumped, how furious he had been at his funeral, and how it hadn't stopped him from breaking down at his grave nonetheless. The thing about his anger is this: it does nothing but leave him behind in the end, a bundle of nerves and frailty in his bones and an unsteady sway to his gait. It does nothing at all, but reduce marginally the constant, suffocating oppressiveness of his days bleeding into one another with a burst of adrenaline. The thing about his anger is this: it doesn't give him back Sherlock. So he gets a new flatmate- a woman named Holland. They were great friends at school and in fear he would be lonely again after Sherlock died he started to meet up with her, and soon, she moved in with him. They're just friends, though. No one could have a bond with John like Sherlock did. Sherlock was his best friend. But then Sherlock returns, and John is more furious than ever at him. Also, Sherlock and Holland seem to bond quite well, which is something Sherlock finds too complicated to explain itself.

"Annabeth, I-" "SHUT UP!" I yell. I take the ring off and throw it at him. "I hate you! Do you know that? I hate you. I will never marry you. Ever. Why do you think I would marry you?" I start crying. "I don't want to be with you. I don't want to see you again. I don't even like you!" I look at the ground as tears overtake me. How could he do that? Why did he do it in front of so many people? 'Witnesses', he said. That belongs in a court case, not a marriage proposal. I can't believe anyone would think I want this... He comes up to me and puts his hands on my cheeks, forcing me to look in his eyes. "You must act excited about this, Annabeth. You can't tell anyone your true feelings about this, especially Alexander." So that's what this is about. He saw me being friendly with Xander and has to keep me for himself. I always thought he liked me... "If you tell anyone I forced you into this, I'll have you killed, and it will look like an accident." *** Annabeth Hutcherson just wanted to find a job so she could see what life was like outside her town. When a handsome gentleman approaches her and offers her the one thing she needs to stay, she accepts. Everything would be provided for her? It was too good to be true. She wasn't aware of the consequences that came with the position, like having to leave all her friends and family, being held prisoner, and... get married? And then she meets Alexander Matthews, and he changes her whole world. Can he help her get away or will she be stuck forever?
