Superwholockthecomic does fanart friday, and drabbles are okay.This weeks theme is “career change”. I have two ideas, so this is the first one. John as an Angel and Sherlock as a Hunter.

Sherlock  held a knife in his hand. He flipped it as he watched the strange blonde step closer. “What are you?” He hissed.

“I am an angel of the Lord,” said John drawing himself to his full height and meeting Sherlock’s eyes.

“Angels?” Sherlock scoffed. “No such thing.”

John stepped closer and Sherlock darted forward, plunging the knife into his chest. John held his eyes, not even flinching. “You are the one who observes, Sherlock.”

Sherlock stepped back, for once at a loss for words. John pulled the knife out and dropped it to the floor. “I am the one that raised you out of perdition.”

Sherlock shook his head as if seeking any other explanation. “I don’t have friends and I certainly don’t have an angel sitting on my shoulder.”

John closed the gap between them and reached up to touch Sherlock’s face. Sherlock flinched but met his gaze. “I have been here far longer than you realize.”

“Then why show yourself now?”

“There’s work to be done. You’ve never stepped back from a challenge before, will you start now?”

A tiny smile crossed Sherlock’s lips. “The game is afoot, then?”

“Far more than you realize.”
