[Flower .4]



Rich and mighty guests alike crowed into the large estate of Count Addington. For you see, the man had invited noble woman and men to his private gathering. A few of his guests however, weren't nobles. But rather a few lucky officers and a familiar detective and doctor duo. Along with the elusive Moriarty borthers.

What a interesting cast of characters.

William stares down at his wrist watch. Staying besides his brother as the two walk around. Stopping when men or woman would greet them and want to converse with them. Their older brother was off with the host of the party. Most likely conversing with him.


"Sir." A voice calls out to the youngest Moriarty. Louis turns his attention to the one who called him. Which also caught his twin brothers attention. "Would you like some wine, champagne?"


"Oh, no thank you." The servant nods, "and you sir?" "I'm quite well." The young (h/c)-nette haired waiter/servant goes along their way. Holding a sliver tray in their right hand with a bottle of wine and champagne on top of the it. The servant goes around towards more guests to give them more glasses of wine and champagne.


Elsewhere, a conversation with Count Addington and Lord Moriarty had began.


"Haha! I cannot wait for tonights main event!" The older man cackles in delight, taking a occasional sip of his wine glass. Lord Moriarty stood next to the man, waiting for the man to explain what was "tonights main event".

Count Addington starts to speak lowly to Lord Moriarty. "You see my good man, I have bought a rose red ruby founded in American. My son will be married soon, so I wished to throw this party for the start of his marriage and give him the ruby as a gift."

Albert's eyes widen. "Is he here?" The old count sighs, "no. He's off with his fiance tonight."


"Then why through this party?"


"You only live this life once Lord Moriarty. Might as well make the most of mine!" The man laughs in delight once more. "You!

More wine!" Lord Addington points to one of the servants.


"Yes sir." The servant walks over to them and pours the wine bottle in his glass and stops before it could overflow. "And you sir?" "No thank you." The servant takes their leave right after.


A smile falls on the old man's face.


Lord Addington gestured Lord Moriarty to follow him. The eldest Moriarty follows the old man, suspicion filling his thoughts. Passing by multiple hallways the two males head down deeper into the mansion. Lord Addington stops walking, making Albert stop and stare at the old man with puzzlement.


Lord Addington pulls out a single golden key from his breast pocket. He unlocks the door and opens it for the two of them. "Lord Moriarty, have you ever seen a ruby such as this? I would of thought a man of your status could enjoy the sights of it." Albert nods slowly, though didn't truly agree with him.


The two walk into the room towards a lone case centered into the middle of the room. Covered in a red blanket from watching eyes. This ruby is probably worth less than my entire fortune. But is still enough to keep my son and his wife in good health." The older man explained.


Lord Addington picks up the red blanket dramatically. Showing the- a empty glass case..

"..."


"...!?"




All the while Sherlock Holmes was talking with his buddy John Watson. "This place sure is lively.."  The doctor stated as he looks around the room. Where people gathered everywhere like flocks of birds. Squawking or drinking with colleagues or acquaintances.


The upbeat classical music plays in the background. Some men and ladies dance in duet on the dance floor. Others watch with awe or wait for their turn. Sherlock takes a sip from one of the wine glasses by the refreshment table. John lightly elbows Sherlock, hoping he'd take that as a sign to not drink much.


Mr. Holmes rolled his eyes moves the glass away from his lips. Suddenly, the lights are gone. Screams and gasp of terrified nobles are heard in the darkness. The lights flicker back on while mocking laughter echos around the room. "What the hell?"


"A thief!! Someone find them!!!"

"Thief?"


Sherlock was about to run to where the shouting was. But then sees a servant who caught his sapphire eyes. And it seemed as if waiter had saw his as well. The presumed "servant" takes this as the time to RUN!!


The thief glides past the shocked nobility and runs down the hallways. Sherlock chases after them, excitement pumping in his blood. With Watson a surprised following close behind him. The two men not noticing a pair of awestruck red eyes watch them from afar.


The skates on thief's feets make it harder for the crime solving pair to catch up to them. When thief finally get's to a dead end, they don't even wait for the men to speak and jump out of a glass window. The moonlight shines through the shards of glass and the thief's figure. The mask the thief wore covering their face glimmers, slightly.


The thief falls a few stories down. Crashing into a bush down below them. Then just like that, the thief gets out of bush. They blow a kiss to Sherlock and Watson before they go and run out of the estate.



~°~



" "Phantom Thief (T/N) strikes once again. The thief had stolen a precious rose ruby from Lord Addington the night before. The thief has yet to be caught by the hands of justice.." " (Y/N) reads through the morning paper. A small smile graced her lips.


Which turns sour right after. "I wish I could've caught some sleep instead of that ruby." (Y/N) crumpled up the paper and shoves it underneath her counter. Placing her hand above her cheek and elbow on the counter. It seemed like she was day dreaming to passing eyes.


The same couldn't be said for her.


'Man I wish I could've done that again. That detectives shocked face was hilliarious, maybe even cute..' The woman started to giggle at the image that formed in her head. 'This makes things a lot more entertaining for me, maybe even for him as well.' Her giggling falls into a silence.


'I need to plan for the next one.'



"Oh, hello Mr. Moriarty!"
