Chapter 7

When they get back to Baker street Sherlock bursts through the door throws off his jacket and scarf and flops onto the couch and begins massaging his temples. "John...Do you have any pain reliever?"

John takes off his coat and walks towards the medecine cabinet "Yeah, why?" He then pulls out a Tylanol bottle and tosses it at Sherlock.

"Withdrawal symptoms." Sherlock then opened the bottle and swallows 3 pills dry. John walks over and takes the bottle from Sherlock and closely inspect the doesage instructions. "Ummm.Sherlock It says to take only 1 pill every hour or so.."

Sherlock lazily rolls over to face the wall  "What a brilliant bout of deduction that was John."

"Um hey Sherlock...Why about that clue that is in the basement?"

Sherlock rolls over to face John "What?...Oh yes the clue, Lets go." The two make their way down to 221C. When they get to the landing John goes to open the door only to find it locked. "Well Sherlock do you have a key?" Sherlock turns around and goes back to the bottom of the stairs. "MRS. HUDSON! WE NEED THE KEY TO THE DOOR OF 221C!" He then turns around and walks back to John "Jesus Sherlock! We could have just gone and asked for the key. Not bloody yelled for it!"

Sherlock just stand there and shrugs. "Well it worked didn't it?" Then almost as if on que Mrs.Hudson comes down the stairs. "Here you boys go. Sherlock it is rude to yell like that."

Sherlock walks over to the door and inserts the key and goes to open the door but it is jammed. So he wiggles the door nob and rams it a few times with his shoulder, then John comes up and taps sherlock on his shoulder and gestures for sherlock to move out of the way. John backs up and gets a bit of a running start then he throws his weight against the door and with a loud 'CRACK!'  the door falls to the ground with a large puff of dust.

Sherlock strolls into the room and turns to look at John.  "I just wanted the door opened."

The room is thick with dust and a musty smell as though the room has not been entered in years. the only thing in the entire room was a pair of sneakers. Sherlock goes over and picks up the sneakers and observes them closley. He then turns and leaves the room. John comes trotting up behind him.

They both go out front and Sherlock sits and investigates the sneakers farther while John hails a cab to go to the hospital.
