The taxi pulled up to 25 lariston garden he paid the man and headed down the path. Sherlock took out his key and went to put it into the lock when he noticed that the door was already open, panic overtook his mind for a brief moment as he stealthly entered the building as different scenarios went through his mind.

After checking that no one was there he headed for the cloak cupboard pushing the coats aside to reveal a hidden door. He knocked the door frantically "Louise, Sheringford are you there". A click was heard and the door opened to reveal 3 kids hiding in the shadows.

"What happened?" This was the first question that Sherlock asked as he scooped up Luna into his arms as she cried into her dads shoulder.

"It was him dad, one of Moriartys men. He broke in, mom held him off long enough for us to get in here, im not sure what happened afterwards but from what i could hear they took mom away." Sheringford paused as the events ran through his head "but i can say one thing she put up a good fight."

"Yeah she did. I knew there was a reason why I never wanted to cross her when she was off on one." Nova piped up after his older brother.

"Ok boys take your sister into the living room I need to make a phone call." Sheringford took a very reluctant Luna from her father and took his younger siblings to the seti as Sherlock held the phone against his ear.

"Hello brother dear, and what do i owe this pleasure of a telephone call?".

"Shes gone Mycroft, they took Louise. The kids are safe, according to Sheringford it was one of Moriartys men who took her."

There was silence for a moment before Mycroft began to talk.

"Ok stay there for now Detective Inspector Lestrade has been contacted and he will be with you shortly. I will also be there, it seems were not out of the woods just yet."

"Ok see you soon". Sherlock hung up and headed to the living room "Mycroft is on his way and a friend of mine will be here soon from scotland yard. Then we will go from there."

"Whats going to happen to mummy?" Luna asked as tears threatened to burst from her green eyes, the boys took after there father in there features but Luna, she was so much like her mother it was unreal. The same brown hair and deep green eyes, the only thing she inherited from her dad was his high cheek bones and signature smile.

Sherlock wrapped his arms around his daughter and sighed "she will be back soon i promise you we will find her".

They all remained that way in silence waiting for help to arrive.
