Where it all Began

    I'm sitting on the roof of St. Barts Hospital listening to Let's Kill Tonight by Panic! at the Disco, waiting for Sherlock. He probably won't even show up. That'd be disappointing. I came back from the dead after all. I pull out my phone and send him another text.

You haven't lost your way have you?

    The roof door opens, about a minute after I had pressed the send button, and Sherlock steps out. " I don't get lost easily." he says in a matter-of-fact tone as he approaches me.

    I smile and take out my earbuds. I stand up and spread my arms in a I-would-like-a-hug gesture, " Sheerrloockk! Oh my, it's been a while hasn't it! Did you miss me?"

   Sherlock stiffens slightly at my words, " No, not really."

    "Not even a little bit?"

    He glances at me with eyes that can see through anybody. Well, anybody except for me. He quirks an eyebrow, " Not even a little bit."

    I sigh dramatically, " Oh come on, amuse me."

    Sherlock looks away from me and down at the city spread out below us. Silence. I'm about to break it, but he beats me to it. " How did you do it? How did you survive?" 

     He must know the answer. After all it was so simple. He has to know. He's amusing me, I suppose I'd better return the favor. 

    I smile devilishly. " It was simple... too bad you won't be around long enough to find out how I did it though." I say as I pull out my gun.

    " Drop it," says a new voice. I turn around and groan, but I do drop my gun. I didn't want a bullet to ruin this perfectly good night.

    " HOnestly, Sherwack. You had to bring your pet hedgehog along?"
