"Well Watson." he said. "You have risen slightly earlier than usual I see. Here, read this telegram." "But Holmes." I said "Why are you still in your dressing gown?" "I hadn't time to get out of it Watsonn, news of a case sends me speeding to it, now read the telegram." It was adressed from Birmingham, and read a follows. Dear Mr Holmes, I am in great distress. I am the sole surviving owner of my late father's estate. His will said that when he died, I would inherit all his possesion's. However, A strange man named Oswald King claims he has a right to the estate, and that my Father's will to me was forged, and his real will gave everything to him. I beg you to assist me in proving him wrong. As it is nearing Cristmas, I don't wan't a scandal that would harm our family's good name. Yours truly, Michael South. "Michael South was a friend of mine from school." said Holmes. "I'd do anytihng for him."


"Happy Christmas to you Watson," he said form behind his paper. "And happy Christmas to you too, Holmes. You do realize it is nearly 10:30? Have you no case to settle today?" "No my dear Watson. At least, not yet anyway. I am however expecting a visit from Lestrade sometime this afternoon. Help yourself to breakfast. I'll go get dressed and when you are ready I would very much like to go see the Christmas play outside Buckingham Palace. I hear it is becoming very popular," he said as he eyed the paper on his lap.

Holmes said,"I will engage in Michael's case tomorow. In the meantime, I will prepare for the play. Fetch my coat will you Watson?" I did as he asked, and very soon I saw him step out into the morning air to the play of "Henry the Fifth" at the theater. I re-glanced over the telegram from Michael South. Just then Mrs. Hudson announced a visitor. A Mr. Oswald King. The name from the Telegram. Mr. King was a tall healthy man. About forty. As he walked in he glanced at me with a face of steel. "I hear Sherlock Holmes is engadged in a case." said he.


"Watson! Fetch my ChritmasPie!"


I had just read the telegram when it struck me. "Holmes" i said. "You have once told me that you have no friends." "No my dear Watson" he replied. "I said that i have no friends that come visit me. I do have kept contact whith some companions from my eduication. As a matter of fact many have read my report on aches 124 diffrent cigarr sorts. But as you know i never want much credit for my discoverys. There for its only my closest friends who know. I would like to think of you as mayby the closest friend I have."

Ho,Ho,Ho? A Christmas story by Connie Gordon "My dear Watson, have we any news on this fine Christmas morn?," Holmes was pacing round his small study smoking his finest pipe. "Saddley yes sir, yet maybe you cold take the day off? Holmes stop's pacing and stares at Watson "What do you mean?," "Well sir maybe you should take the day off no matter how many crimes are happening," "I could not live with myself if I did dear Watson, for you see if I take just one day off one hundred crimes could happen while I drink tea and eat cake! Would you be able to do that Watson?," Watson goes very red and replies grimly, "Well sir maybe well... you could let me do the cases wile you spend some time on your own?," "Fine, fine my dear Watson I shall spend half a day relaxing and let you do the work, but then when that half is over I will see how you are doing and if you do well and have solved what ever it is then maybe I will take the other half off. But if not and that you have failed then I will solve the rest of the crime and it will be you who will be taking the day off!,"


Inspector Lestrade was one of the chief alcocholics of Scotland Yard. So, he invites us to take a pint of ale in Auld Queenes Head pub. "For Merry Christmass!!" said Holmes "Cheers"


"You're still in your dressing gown Holmes, how is that so?" asked Watson "Yes, morning Watson, well I heard a bump in the night and came down to investigate the most disturbing case of my career. I saw a fleeting figure that seemed to fly up the chimney breast. This strange aparition caused me to examine the room for clues. I found this sack, containing wrapped gifts with your name, my name and that of Mrs Hudson on it. I also found a small scrap of red material caught on the fire fender. Watson, I am exhausted, but mentally stimulated. I have spent the last six hours pondering over these intriguing clues." "Holmes, you should have called me down." "No, Watson, I know how you need your sleep to keep your brain cells in working order." "After spending all this time considering the clues, have you come to a conclusion?" asked Watson. "Of course, my dear Watson, you are in the company of the Great Sherlock Holmes. It is elementary, we have been visited by none other than Father Christmas."


il était une fois helene raconte a sherlock holmes coment elles c'est fait tuer


The adventure of the rattling drainpipes One night at dusk there was a rattling coming from outside. Sherlock Holmes looked out the window saw nothing (because it was very dark) and went back to bed but struggled to get back to sleep. A few minutes later Watson walked in, claiming that he had heard a rattling noise from outside. Sherlock and Watson went outside to investigate for anything suspicious. They heard a faint creek here and there but were never quite quick enough to find out what was going on. At 3:00 am Sherlock and Watson trudged back to 221 Baker Street. In the morning, at 9:00 a.m. Watson saw Sherlock in his dressing gown. "What are you doing undressed? We have a mystery to solve!" Stressed Watson. Sherlock stepped back and showed Watson the empty wardrobe that he was investigating. Watson was shocked to see that Sherlock's wardrobe was empty. Watson and Sherlock exchanged glances. Watson noticed that Sherlock was holding a crumpled note saying' Sherlock Holmes, you will never find out who stole the clothes and wallet. From??? ???????' " There are some fingerprints on the note!" Squealed Watson delighted that he had found a clue. "Get the D.N.A and later we shall go to the police station for any records or names." Announced Sherlock. "Meanwhile can I borrow some of your clothes?" So Sherlock got dressed whilst Watson checked the D.N.A fingerprints on the note. When Sherlock went to Watson's lab Watson wasn't there. Sherlock heard some rattling from the drainpipes. He dashed to the window quicker than quick but it was only Watson looking at the drainpipes for more fingerprints. Sherlock suddenly noticed that there were some muddy footprints on the floor. He nodded to Watson so that Watson would come inside. When Watson was inside, Sherlock led Watson outside. On their way they saw people looking at their drainpipes looking confused. When they arrived, they asked the head policeman if he would kindly let them have a little look at the criminal records. The records showed that Jay Caspian, Ben Tolkien, Don Corniel, Michael Cooney and Bob Fleming all break into buildings by climbing up drainpipes. Sherlock and Watson went home with those names in their heads wondering who it was. It was the end of the day and they both felt tired. That night there was another rattling of the drainpipes. Sherlock ran to the window and grabbed the man before it was too late. "What is your name?" Asked Sherlock but the man stayed silent" What is your name?" Questioned Sherlock being extremely patient. The mysterious man eventually replied "Don Corniel". By this time, Watson had walked in. "Watson, check the D.N.A to this man." It is hardly surprising that the D.N.A was an exact replica of the one that Watson had. Sherlock and Watson took Don Corniel to the police station, where they told the police his name and crime so that the police could deal with Don Corniel. The next day everybody on Baker Street knew about Don Corniel.


sherlock holmes is so handsome


It was a cold and rainy Monday morning of 1878. "Hello Holmes" I said "Have you got any cases this week?" "Yes, I do, Watson" said Holmes "A very difficult one" "What's happened?" I asked "Joseph Swan has been kidnapped with his new invention" said Holmes "What is his new invention?" I said "I don't know" said Holmes "Let's go down to his garage" said Holmes. "Hello dear officer" said Holmes "Have you got anything to tell us about Swan" "No" said the officer "But we got some witnesses" "great" said Holmes "One of them saw the thief" "How did he then look" said Holmes " He was big, had strong moves, orange hair and blue eyes" said the officer "Wait just ten seconds" said Watson "I've seen that gentlemen on the street. He walked into a little house on... can't remember, but the house number was 111c" "Elementary" said Holmes "There is only one street with this number" "Which?" said Watson "Laker street" said Holmes.


THE MISSING WAX HAND. IT ALL STARTED ONE NIGHT ON FEBUARY 19, 1952. HOLMES RECIEVED A LETTER FROM SIR HUNTER NAPIER. HE SAID THAT A WAX HAND FROM KING LOUIE THE xiv OF FRANCE WAS STOLEN FROM THE MUSEUM OF WAX IN LONDON. HOLMES AND WATSON WENT TO SEE SIR NAPIER IN THE WAX MUSEUM. INSIDE THEY SAW LOTS OF WAX STATUES INCLUDING ONE OF KING AURTHUR. SIR NAPIER TOLD HOLMES THAT THE HAND WAS STOLEN FROM THE STATUE AT 9AM. THE JANITOR DEVAMON WAS THE ONLY ONE INSIDE AT THAT TIME. THE JANITOR WAS IN HIS OFFICE WHEN HOLMES ARRIVED HOLDING THE WAX HAND. THE THIEF WAS CAUGHT AND THE HAND WA SRETURNED TO THE STATUE. THE END


I didn't know what the paper was about, however, with the look on Holmes' face, I decided not to ask questions. We had arrived at the scene of the paly, and Lestrade eas there. "Ah, my dear friend, how nice it is to see you!", said Holmes. Lestrade, however, did not cheer up with the arrival of me and my companion.


Watson couldn't believe his eyes


The Christmas Cracker is good because i like the little gifts inside !


"Here we are! Buckingham Palace. Let's go and get our seats before all the good one's ar gone!" ,said Watson. "Wow, It is so beautiful in here." ,said Sherlock.

Holmes whisked her off her feet ,swings her round ,and sets her down after some chatter ,She motions for Holmes to intoduce her."This",he said laughing"is my sister Victoria Anne Devirre." "You are married I see,"said I. "oh heavens no,'Locky'hasn't told you?Anyway,Father named the boys and Mother named me.She wanted one girl child form her father's family to hve the last name 'Deverre'.So I became Victoria Anne Holmes Devirre and the boys became --Devirre Holmes. Our parents were excentric."Holmes similed and said"The dissolvent of crim runns in the family,Victoria here work at Scotland Yard."he said. "which brings me to my point."She said."Lockie,we need your help."


hello ! Whom are you ?


THE MYSTERY in the rum It was a cold gloomy day when I went down stairs as I passed the rum barral and saw that note it siad urgent dear mr. laine meet me at the corner of 221b street at midnight. tunnal fineshed we'll break in to the bank to night. so I called up watson and told him what I found. that night me and watson called up the police agent and the police and watson and me folled Mr. Laine and there we arrested is friends.


"What are you planing today, me dear Holmes?" questioned Watson. "Anything stupendous my friend?" "Not at all my dear Watson. I was thinking something along the lines of an evening at the theater. Maybe we will enchant our time with music of the most heavenly quality. For the most superior instrument on the streets of London is the violin." My dear friend Holmes then bean humming a piece of music, and he was so annoyingly cheerful, that I could perceive something was up.


As we walked to the play, a black figure was heading our way. As he got closer, I could see his eyes as black as the night with hair to match. His nights seemed to be late but it was no one I knew. "Ah! Mr. Michael Smith! How good to see you!" exclaimed my friend. He turned to me with a smile unique to him. I knew we had a case on his mind. "Remember the Mr. Smith we had talked about this morning?" I could vaguely remember for I was only barely awake. "I thank you again Homes for taking this case." said Mr. Smith, true gratitude shining towards us. "I can not talk now but how about if we meet at 0900 hours to-morrow at your house for the details" my friend said with great intrest in his face. As we walked back to Baker Street, I had a feeling that I would be very busy to-morrow.


Detective Julia by:Julia Garriott I am Julia. I'm going to tell how I became a detective. It was March and I heard Holmes was coming to America. So I went to New York to see him. Just him because Watson was off somewhere in Ireland. On count St.Patrick's Day. Some how I found him at a police station in New York. A cop told me he was helping out with a family murder case. He said no one like them so it could have been anyone. Holmes and a New York cop where looking at descriptions of the case.I walked by and noted it said two sets of foot prints by the door. I asked how could it be two sets of foot prints with a small New York apartment door. Holmes looked surprised to see woman a long man cops. He said the lady is right,it doesn't make since. After that he said sit and help us think,we need all it we can get. About a minute later some children bought cookies to the station.They where so small they came in together. I yelled,"I got it". Sherlock and the cop looked at me. I said,it was kids who did the murder,little ones. They where all shocked. So we reinterviewed the family friends. In the end one told me about a fight with neighbor kids. Threads were made toward the family by two mean kids. After the interview the two mean kids were arrested. After resting at a hotel Sherlock and I went out to lunch. Then he ask me," How would like to be a London Detective". I said,"That's my dream". So after lunch we got on a boat and three months we were in London. Two months later I was helping out Holmes and Watson.And that's how I became a detective London.


The Adventure of the Christmas Cracker It was late Christmas morning of 1882 when I went downstairs to the study for breakfast and was surprised find Sherlock Holmes still in his dressing gown.

"Well Watson." he said. "You have risen slightly earlier than usual I see. Here, read this telegram." "But Holmes." I said "Why are you still in your dressing gown?" "I hadn't time to get out of it Watsonn, news of a case sends me speeding to it, now read the telegram." It was adressed from Birmingham, and read a follows. Dear Mr Holmes, I am in great distress. I am the sole surviving owner of my late father's estate. His will said that when he died, I would inherit all his possesion's. However, A strange man named Oswald King claims he has a right to the estate, and that my Father's will to me was forged, and his real will gave everything to him. I beg you to assist me in proving him wrong. As it is nearing Christmas, I don't wan't a scandal that would harm our family's good name. Yours truly, Michael South. "Michael South was a friend of mine from school." said Holmes. "I'd do anytihng for him."

"Happy Christmas to you Watson," he said form behind his paper. "And happy Christmas to you too, Holmes. You do realize it is nearly 10:30? Have you no case to settle today?" "No my dear Watson. At least, not yet anyway. I am however expecting a visit from Lestrade sometime this afternoon. Help yourself to breakfast. I'll go get dressed and when you are ready I would very much like to go see the Christmas play outside Buckingham Palace. I hear it is becoming very popular," he said as he eyed the paper on his lap.


At 12, noon, Holmes was finally dressed. "At last", exclaimed Watson, "Now to Bukingham Palace". They left Baker St by a cab. When they nearly half way there, Holmes noticed that they were being driven towards Trafalger Sqaure. "Excuse me driver", said Holmes, "This is not the way to Buckingham Palace." The driver answered in a deep voice "There is an obstruction down Pall Mall and so we are having to take a detour." "Hmmm Watson," said Holmes, " I think something is amiss." Just then Watson noticed a peice of paper on the floor of the cab, it read: The Traitors Gate, The Tower of London.


It was just after luncheon when Lestreade arrived and Mrs. Hudson showed him up. "Hello Lestrade! I'm so glad to see you, Merry Christmas!"


but then he found out that christmas night, that his wife had been having an affair with his father and so he charged down to his dads house to find her there with his father (like eastenders) and he knocked his father out and said "come on you, home" to his wife!


"Well so what do you think about this case?"sad Holmes. "Who do think is the susspect?Do you think that it was the dude in the red hat?"


A lamp glows dimly. It is late and the London fog swirls about the feet of the horses that pull the hansom cabs. A figure rush's past and a dull thud can be heard. No one sees the shoes of the body laying still as the fog is very thick tonight.


once upon a time there was a little boy who wanted to be sherlock holmes. His name was che. He had two books: The case book of sherlock holmes and the return of sherlock holmes. Soon che who was seven years old decided to visit the master detective himself. And so started the adventure of che the 21st century detective who will soon come knocking on the doors of baker street all the way from india !!!!


Well see here..."my good man" i was sitting there- can you excuse me- on the way home i decided to stop in the old cigar emporium shoppe along madison avenue when all of a sudden - there was a carriage that had stopped and a very "mysterious" woman got out - and she watched me and i wondered.


The estenders scene then stopped due to lack of interest and watson was no longer loved. THE END :)


Holmes fixed me with a beady stare when I entered the room. "You have been in the library again, haven't you Watson!?" "But Holmes!" I cried out, half-laughing."How did you know?" "You know my methods." My companion said briskly "Apply them!" After a bit of thought, I gave in. "Tell me! My thinking skills aren't as good as yours!" "A human brain,"Sherlock proclaimed wisely "Is as good as any other if you only know how to use it correctly. Still," Said Holmes, standing up "I will answer to your wishes. You have dust on your shoulders where you have wiped your hands; And you have ink on your fingers that comes from leafing through newspapers and the Like. That, and the fact that you have a pencil behind your ear." "Holmes! Once again, your powers of deduction have amazed me!" Suddenly there was a knock at the door. Holmes opened the door and a small hobbled figure came in.


hi becca I have to take Hip Hop and Jazz at Regencey Dance studio And IM looking forward to it.


hello, i'm bob and this is my story: Once apon a time, there was a guy named bob. he was very boared, so he went to sleep. The next day, he woke up and had a cup of coffee. He walked to his bed and sat on it, then he went to sleep.


"homes!" said bob... once again bob was boared. He always says that to sherlock holmes... the end, this is the best story ever i hope you publish it. thank you so much, this is ym dream the story above is very long so it took a long time... almost 2 sentences. bye!


I think that a story idea could take place in India, when Sherlock investigates the ransacked palace of Prince Stephan and Princess Rayna. There could also be a stolen diamond.


SHERLOCK HOLMES AND THE STUCK CAT. The cat climed up the tree and got stuck.Sherlock holmes got a ladder.He climed the ladder and saved the cat.He was given £5,he spent it on sweets. the end.by a bored 9year old called kate.


On a cold and fogy night Holmes and Watson where on there way back from a play when Holmens called "Stop driver!" and went rushing awy. Later watson asked why holmes had sudanly ran and was ansewered "Because, my dear Watson I noticed a murder." Do you know who did this?" Watson asked. "No no my dear fellow. But I plan to find out."


Is it really THE END?


Where did Sherlock Holmes live? How long did he live there?


Sherlock holmes' last wish "well my dear watson it seems i'm lying hear ready to pass on to a new life, there is one thing i'd like you to do for me though" he said. "i'll do anything for you my dear friend. anything." "I never told you watson as i was ashamed of saying this but i have a daughter that i wish you to find for me" "a daughter, but, how, i've never seen you with any woman in your life other than our clients, how can this be so?" " it was when i was alot younger and had not met you my dear watson, but i will have to tell you after you find her, i have something i wish to tell her" ........


Holmes was the coolest detective in town.


who was sherlock holmes

It was a cold winter's day approaching Christmas in 1887. The crossing-sweepers were out in the streets clearing the heavy snow, and you could hardly walk along Baker Street without being accosted every few yards by a muffin seller. As I looked down upon Baker Street from our cosy sitting room, I was surprised to see a well-dressed gentleman looking up at our frosted windows. He appeared to be checking our address against a business card he held in his hand.


Funnily enough, he was also furtively biting a muffin. obviously he had not been able to resist the temptation. And, to be honest, the muffin seller was the sweetest-looking thing on the street. Sweeter that her muffins by far.


I decided to go outside to greet him and to my surprise it was none other than Mycroft, dear brother of Sherlock Holmes. He was sweating rather profusly and muttered (that's 'muttered', not 'muffined') and stuttered when I tried to see what was wrong. "Oh, you must come inside and warm yourself in front of the blazing fire." "Y-yes thank you, but one thing...."

"What's that?"

"I'll just go grab another muffin." And so he hobbled back towards the muffin lady before entering the house of his brother.


Dearie me! That lady was certainly making a profound impact on Mycroft, a shocking revelation, as - very much like his brother- he normally seemed unaware of any female presence, leave alone charm.


As we both approached the lady, an exquisite tall and lean figure, she was swaying down the street, the basket of muffins against her hips. Mycroft looked at her intently, then at me and, much to my surprise, he then roared with laughter. Without a word, he grabbed me by the elbow and directed me back to our front doot. He was still laughing when he finally collapsed on the sofa opposite the fire.

Mycroft looked at her intently, then at me and, much to my surprise, he then roared with laughter. Without a word, he grabbed me by the elbow and directed me back to our front doot. He was still laughing when he finally collapsed on the sofa opposite the fire.


"What the...?!" I tried to say, but just then the door of the studio opened with a bang and the muffin lady herself appeared under the threshold!


"You big fools! You nearly ruined my disguise!!!" Well, that lady was certainly angry, and she had a very grave voice... Very much like my dear friend... "Holmes? Is that you?" I asked. "Who else?" he answered, removing his beautiful curls with a sudden movement. That man certainly knew how to apply makeup, I must admit.


"Anyway, Mycroft, will you please explain the reason for your visit? why, I think I haven't seen you laughing like that ever since... well, never before! Stop it now, will you please?" said Holmes with a frown.


It was a bellendish night and sherlock was counting how many muscles are in his toe.


Honestly,the nerve of Mycroft.He could´ve given me away.I thought he´d have a little more self-control." I continued chewing on a muffin.However, the question refused to exit my mind." Sherlock, what were you doing disguised as a women?" "I was trying to look inside the window across the street.The one with the red curtains. My latest case requires me to know house. However the old man who resides there happens to be of a bitter dispostion and won´t let me enter."


CHAPTER ONE : Once upon a time, in 1886 a private detective who lives in the south of London. He was tall, nice and generous. He had blue-eyes, dark-hair and longs arms. He is used to wear a deerstalker hat and smoke a pipe and he wears larges glasses.


Honestly, the nerve of Mycroft.He could´ve given me away.I thought he´d have a little more self-control." I continued chewing on a muffin.However, the question refused to exit my mind." Sherlock, what were you doing disguised as a women?" "I was trying to look inside the window across the street.The one with the red curtains. My latest case requires me to know house. However the old man who resides there happens to be of a bitter dispostion and won´t let me enter."


Mycroft frowned at this. "Bitter disposition, you said?" he asked Holmes. "I shall show the gentleman in that house what a bitter disposition is! Will you follow me, gentlemen?" Holmes got rid of his disguise in no time and we both trotted after Mycroft, who left the house and crossed the street walking briskly. Once in front of the door in question, he knocked loudly. A few seconds later the door creaked open and an elderly lady watched us in awe. "Good morning, madam" said Mycroft. "Will you please inform the owner of the house that the president of the commitee for the embellishment of the streets of London, the vicesecretary of the league against poverty and the chairman of the association of victims of urbanistic disasters are here to see him?" He did not stop to breathe once!


Three.. very important gentlemen are here to see you, sir," mumbled the poor woman to her master in the sitting room across the parlour where we were.


Two seconds later, an elderly gentleman, elegantly dressed up in an impeccable tuxedo, entered the room with a smile on his face. "My dear gentlemen," he said,"I am delighted to welcome you in my house. And what exactly can I do for you?" Sherlock was not taken aback by the sudden change of disposition of the man, and took advantage of the situation. "My dear fellow," he started, "we are delighted to tell you that your house has been selected to host the First International Meeting of Optimal House Preservation. The way you have preserved this building has attracted the attention of... I'm afraid I have to be discreet now, but be it enough to say that we are talking about a crowned head."


The gentleman seemed to grow ten inches taller at those words, so impossible to conceal was his satisfaction. "Em, er, of course, my dear fellows," he muttered."I will be deligthed to help in any way you decide suitable". Mycroft spoke before Holmes could say anything, a wicked twink in his eye: "I must warn you that all members of the committee insist on having fresh muffins served at each meeting, and there will be at least three." "That will be my pleasure, my dear friend" said the poor gentleman, his eyes gleaming with the expectation of a private reception at Buckingham, maybe?


 Back at 221B half an hour and several muffins later, Holmes seemed ready to speak about the case in the open. "Well, my dear Watson," he said,"I had a visitor two evenings ago. He was a most peculiar man, a black dwarf with only one leg. He was nevertheless a happy man. He insisted in seeing me despite the lateness of the hour and Mrs Hudson felt sorry for him so she ushered him upstairs. He told me he was born a twin to another boy. His brother was of average height and had two legs, but had a reddish birthmark all over his right buttock. His mother, a maid to a rich family, told him that. When they were born, the family looked after the maid and children, and a few days later the tall brother disappeared in the middle of the night. That was the last time the woman saw her son. She suffered terribly for many years until last year when she died. She had been very generously looked after by the family and lived her last years in a homely residence down in Clarence Street. My client, Hampton Fleet, a tailor by trade, found out about his brother's existence when his mother was about to die. She asked him one final thing, that he would look after his brother to tell him that his mother loved him and would love him in heaven."


Mycroft let out a big hearty laugh. "Splendid!" he cried. "This is the perfect place for it. Now, we must inspect every inch of it to be quite sure that it fits all of our needs." "Indeed, indeed," replied the elderly gentleman. "I do hope that everything will come up to your standards. "Oh, I'm quite sure that it will. We just need to inspect the premisis to make sure," said Holmes.

Yes, my dear fellow of the previous entry, you simply add a next part to the story. But, obviously, it must relate to the actual story that is already started.


You can add a chapter, paraghraph whatever you choose. The basis is that you keep to the original story unless you create a new one.

The Case of the Red Bamboo On a warm fall day,Holmes and Watson were both reading in the sitting room next to a small, warm fire. Holmes was,very oddly,reading a letter from Violet Hunter.Watson was reading the newspaper. The letter from Violet Hunter said, "Dear Mr. Holmes, please I need your help desperately. I have been robbed of my money. Also, money from the Bank of Spain was stolen with it. I must ask you for your services again. I still live at Stroke Moran. The gypsies are still living in the lawn so be careful." Signed, Violet Hunter Holmes read it aloud to Watson and asked, "what do you make of this?" I conclude someone has stolen her money simply to make use of it. Then Holmes said, "I fear not." "I believe that someone has stolen the money to set up a trap." Later that night Holmes went out to find where the money was hidden. In the morning he told Watson that that afternoon he wanted to meet him in the cellar of the tower of London, and to bring his revolver. Somehow they knew the money was still there. And they waited. They whispered in the darkness.

Soon Holmes tapped his walking stick against the wall and floor. The floor was hollow. Immediately he presumed there must be a crawl-space or tunnel. He found a small block missing. Large enough for a small person to fit through. Holmes also could fit through the hole. After entering he followed the tunnel. He saw someone creeping in the darkness. He lit his light and called for Watson. Watson raised his revolver and shot the stranger dead. He immediately realized it was Victor Helms lying on the tunnel floor. They carefully disposed of the body and located the stolen money. It was returned to Violet Hunter. They were heros until the end of their days. And Holmes' cane became famous, for it was made of red bamboo.

The Hound of the Baskervilles II The rain was sheeting and trickling down the side of the terraced houses. Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson were on their way to Marcini’s for their usual dinner. It had been half a year since the closure of the case of the Hound of the Baskervilles, but Watson remained unease that Stapleton was not captured, alive or dead. Watson alone was convinced that Stapleton might still be at large. Holmes had told him firmly that it was nearly impossible to survive while escaping at night in the Great Grimpen Mire. Marcini’s was a small, popular restaurant situated on the corner of Baker Street. The owner knew Holmes and Watson very well as they were regular customers. The atmosphere was usually peaceful and tonight was no exception. The waiters were always helpful and Holmes knew all of them Holmes and Watson were directed to a different table then usual because a couple had requested a window seat. Holmes and Watson were discussing their latest case when they heard a scream. There was a crash and a waiter shouted out that two people had fallen off their chairs and thrown up. The little noise in the restaurant had died down. Holmes rushed over with Watson at his tail. A man and a woman, who were holding wine glasses, were lying on the floor clutching their stomachs. Holmes looked at their wine; it looked normal but there must have been something in there as the couple had drunk it just before the incident happened. Holmes thought that the couple had probably had an allergic reaction, something they have eaten earlier or that they had been poisoned. There was no other possible reason.

As he was thinking he looked out the rain stricken window and saw someone walking hurriedly away in the shadows of the tall, stately buildings of Baker Street. There was something jammed into his pocket. It was small but in the darkness Holmes could not make out what it was. The moon rose in the slivery sky, impearling the clouds around her. A doctor arrived and completed some tests before he said that the man and the woman had been poisoned with Ricin. They would need special treatment. Holmes asked Inspector Jones if he would come down and help them with the case. They kept all the people in Marcini’s so they could question them.

The next morning Holmes went with Watson to Marcini’s for the questioning. Holmes was getting frustrated. He had cross questioned many people but they were not falling into his trap. From Holmes’ experience that meant two things. Either the culprit was very clever or everybody was telling the truth. The manager had made a list of all the waiters and chefs and checked they were all present. One of the chefs said that a man had brought in a crate of wine for the restaurant. The man was holding a wine bottle in his other hand and said that it was especially requested for table twelve and not to be given to anyone else. Holmes was frowning even more, he lit his pipe with a deliberation that Watson knew from the past that Holmes was engrossed in deep thought. Watson left the room as quietly as he came in. Holmes stared at the floor. What if the culprit wanted to kill them?

They were not sitting at their usual table and the culprit did not know that. That also meant the culprit did not have to be at the scene of the crime. Holmes had worked it out but he did not know who the culprit was. It had been three weeks since the incident in Marcini’s happened and Holmes was aggravated by the fact that the killer could still be out there planning another plot against him. Holmes was going to the opera with Watson. The maid opened the door to the monthly chimney sweep. It was a different one from normal but he said he was covering. There was a man who stood by him. He said he was the chimney sweep helper. The helper had a plan to kill Sherlock Holmes and Watson. He was going to wait until Holmes came back and he would set fire to his house and make it look like it was an accident that started from the fireplace. The helper would wait in Holmes’ room, when Holmes came home he would hide in the lounge by the fireplace then use a log from the fire to set fire to the sitting room and leave the house. That was his plan but it was very risky. After the opera Holmes met a good friend of his and because it was so late at night his friend let he and Dr. Watson stay the night. Watson sent a message to the maid to tell her they were not coming home. When she returned home she found Watson’s note. Once the helper heard the maid open the door, he thought it was Holmes and Watson so he took a log from the fireplace and set fire to the carpet and the sofa. He left the log burning the carpet. The maid could see smoke everywhere so she rushed into the lounge and saw that the whole room was on fire. The flames were getting white-hot as they licked the walls and spread to the ceiling. The room was like an oven; the heat was unbearable. She panicked and tripped. She inhaled the smoke started to cough. Her apron caught fire so she ripped her it off so she could carry on towards the phone. She managed to reach the phone and call the emergency services before the fire finally engulfed her and she passed out. She did not see a man rushing to the back of the house where he clambered out of a window and into the backstreet. The fire spread to the hallway and burnt everything in its path. The distant wail of sirens could be heard getting louder and louder. Holmes and Watson arrived at their house just after 1 o’clock. The fire fighters had managed to extinguish the fire and there was little damage down but it told Holmes and Watson that they were still wanted dead. The only exterior damage was the front door. Everything in the lounge and hallway was soaking so Holmes and Watson went to Holmes’ room. They had a small wooden door with a hole in it for post. The door was temporary but not very strong. Holmes saw a small, crumbled piece of paper. In elegant handwriting the paper had the information of where and when Holmes was and at what time. The first entry was the Inspector entering their house. The note also meant that the culprit could watch Holmes even while he was at Baker Street. That confirmed his suspicions the man that tried to poison them was the same man that set fire to their house. It also meant that the culprit spent a lot of time around Baker Street watching Holmes and his movements and he had been all over the house. Holmes and Watson tried to catch some sleep. Holmes and Watson were eating when a note came through the door. Watson looked to see who had delivered it. The post had already come and there was no one out side. He hastily took it to Holmes read it. Now was his chance to find out the conspiracy against him. The letter said Come to the end of Camden Canal at 12pm on Tuesday and all would be revealed. It was written in capital letters so it was hard to tell whether it was the same man that wrote the observation of Holmes. Holmes knew they were dealing with a very clever man. There was total darkness in the sky and the only light was coming from the small gas lamps on the side walk. There was fog everywhere. It curled softly down and coiled its body around the railings. The water was gushing swiftly by. The smell of fresh water filled the air. Holmes and Watson arrived slightly early but there was no one there. The chilling wind swept down and set them shivering. Holmes walked over to the bush there was something mysterious about it. Watson saw a small wooden boat moored along the edge of the bank. Holmes turned to look. A smooth hand came across Holmes’ shoulder wrapping itself over his hand and his nose. A punch to the kidneys crumpled Holmes. He then put is hand in Holmes’ pocket and took out his gun. Watson saw Holmes on the floor and rushed over he punched blindly into the bush and a howl of pain told him that he hit the attacker. He pulled Holmes away from the bush and looked at him. He had a nasty cut across his neck. Watson could hear the attacker getting up so he quickly got up nad drew his revolver. Holmes recovered and jumped to his feet. Both of them were ready and alert. Holmes could hear his footsteps on the gravel path. They could now see the man. He was standing there staring at them with his cold, blue eyes. They were both speechless; it was Stapleton. Stapleton walked towards Holmes and Watson who both stepped back. He told them that he had had a small amount of money in a bank which he had used to get a small room near Holmes’ place. He was then watching them and recording what they were doing. He then dressed up as a waiter and tried to poison them. When that did not work he set fire to their house and now he was going to kill them now. He told them that he was not going to make the same mistake as Holmes did and he was going to make sure that they were dead. Stapleton was holding Holmes’ gun in his hand and it was aimed at Holmes. He told Watson to throw his gun in the water. Watson looked at Holmes who nodded. Watson dropped his gun into the water. A wicked smile spread across Stapleton’s face. He thought he had control over them Stapleton gradually walked towards them. Holmes muttered to Watson that there was a small net on the side of the canal, the gun would be caught in there he was going to occupy Stapleton while Watson could get the gun. He was overconfident. Stapleton was watching them and he queried why they were muttering to each other. However, he did not wait for an answer he said they were probably planning some plan to escape. Stapleton was still getting closer and closer until Holmes said now. Watson turned around and scrambled towards the canal. He bent over and searched for his gun. Meanwhile, Holmes had staggered over to Stapleton and punched him in the stomach. He dropped the gun which Holmes immediately picked up. Holmes shot a hole in the boat. Stapleton shouted you cannot win. He said that they would have to stop Beryl marrying Sir Henry otherwise all the money would still go to him. Watson had retrieved is dripping gun and it was aimed at Stapleton. Suddenly, Stapleton kicked out at Watson who fell down. He pushed Holmes aside and started to run but Holmes grabbed hold of his collar and dragged him over to the side of the canal. Watson picked him self up gruffly and brushed himself down. Holmes picked him up so Watson and Holmes could both train their guns on him. They wanted to take him to the police station. All of a sudden, before Holmes or Watson could shoot, Stapleton dived into the water. There was a splash and he submerged. Holmes only saw a green swirl where Stapleton went underwater. Holmes saw a small, tube fall out of Stapleton’s pocket as he fell. He picked it up. It contained a small powder- Ricin. He passed it to Watson who smiled. Holmes lit his pipe, turned, and with a heavy heart walked down the canal with the intention of finding Stapleton’s body. Stapleton was right; he was not going to make the same mistake twice!

Then he came into the house and he heard a big boom. AHHHHHHHHH he screamed. never mind I just messed up. ok here we go. He came into the house and a dog attacked him. luckily he got away with only a couple bites
Okay, so Sherlock was really bored on this rainy day. So anyways, he goes outside with his cool little umbrella. Then all of a sudden, something comes out of the sewer and grabs his leg. Now, Sherlock got pretty scared, so he screamed. A neighbor looked outside, and to her surprise she saw Sherlock get sucked into the sewer. Now, that's pretty scary, right? And this neighbor's name was Megan, and she was a big fan of Sherlock. So she tries to go down into the sewer to find out who captured Sherlock. Well, Megan was a really smart girl. And she found out who it was. And guess who? It was Sherlock's great uncle Bob! Well, Bob is in jail and Sherlock was alright. Thanks to Megan who saved the day! :)

One evening in the middle of winter my friend and I, Sherlock, were on a walk when up the street there was a crowed gathered in front of an old a apartment building


Rain pattered hard against the window and I tried in vain to complete the research on Oliver Marrow, my new patient. The door bell rang, I got up, startled, at who could be here at this time of night. I grabbed my umbrella and tiptoed silently towards the door. Opening it, I raised the umbrella but stopped in mid-air as I saw it was my friend, Shelock Holmes. "Ah! I see you are well prepared, dear Watson, but I do not think a mere umbrella could harm any one." Holmes said, as he stepped inside and elegantly dried himself. He looked thinner then usual, but he had the same exciting glint in his eyes, as he always has when on hold of a mystery.......... I will try to write more another time...Bitesky.


my dear watson.i am sure the villian has two left feet....notice the shoes watson, they are both left handed.


my dear Watson Cant you see the point? here it is on the end of this spear handle.I know the suspect has two left feet,look at his shoes they are both left handed


I glanced over my shoulder at the sofa where Holmes lay, completely absorbed in his letter, put aside the paper and slumped into the old armchair. I closed my eyes, their lids a burnt orange colour from the sunlight blaring in through the window. Suddenly there was a creaking of floorboards, and when I looked up I realised that Holmes had shifted from his position curled up on the sofa, and was now stood at the window sill, his face pressed up upon the glass, peering out onto the street. Wondering what could have possibly distracted him from his letter, I went to stand by his side. Outside, a cab had pulled up in front of the house, and from it emerged a cloaked figure that slowly made their way to our front door. I turned and saw that my companion was already at the door and had flung it open before our unidentified guest had even the chance to knock.


sherlock strikes again it's a cold and stormy night on Baker street Sherlock was cleaning out the barrel of his piston magum, warming himself up next to theroasing fire while dinking out of his decanter of whisky and soda.When he decided to go to his bedroom to through a punch at his punch ball trying to work at his moves at the same time. "Good Heavens" he shouted as the matallic coloured doorbell rang a ding dong and spolt the silence.Sherlock said to himself: "Thats weird as the doorbell has never worked before"! Sherlock answered the door and sees a destruted shadow of a man holding a baby in an dangerous way. At the same time an outrageous scream was heard of a women shouting "Give me my baby back"! Sherlock loked through his crime files and says"This has happened before"! He remembered that the voice is of kelly smith. Sherlock made his way to the lab to work out a postion to give this man so he ives th baby back!But what is going to happen next................ to be continued


I think this page needs resetting and people shouldn't contribute unless they've got something good to say.


Sherlock Holmes rose from his seat in manner which would define that he had something on his mind. His old friend John Watson could see the odd look on his face as Holmes went to the table with a rather odd looking object. He had collected this item from his brother Mycroft, who also had no idea what it was, and since it was approaching Christmas he could have a new mystery to solve
