Summary: Sherlock and John have reached the end of their hunt and now it is time to claim their booty.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Mapleton," John reads and looks back at Sherlock. "That is the other stable, the stable owned by this guy called Brown."
"Silas Brown," Sherlock says and John recognizes the glint of success in Sherlock's eyes. "We have reached our destination, John."

"So the track led here?" John asks, looking at the building with new found suspicion. "That track was from Silver Blaze, wasn't it?"

"I do believe so," Sherlock answers and then steps forward silently and he is careful to stay out of view.
"So, the terrible storm has led us to our booty," John murmurs, deepening his voice and Sherlock rolls his eyes.

"Really, John and you call me childish. But as to the so called booty... you will be surprised."
"Aren't I always?" John snorts and they both giggle, making their way silently through the yard and after a few moments they reach the stable with the horses.

Slipping inside, Sherlock motions John to follow him and then they move forward.
"Booty, here we come!" John whispers and grins broadly when he can hear an almost silent snort from Sherlock.

Their hunt is almost over.
