The Amazing Airship Adventure
Sheldon was furious, and he started upon his course for revenge.”
    â€œWait a minute!” Jimmy’s eyes lit up. “The S.H. on the side of the red carriage..that stood for Sheldon Howe, not Sherlock Holmes!”
    Everyone burst out laughing. “When have I ever owned a two horse carriage?” Sherlock asked the boy.
    â€œSorry, sir, I didn’t know if the whole thing was a kind of test for us,” Jimmy admitted.
    â€œIt did end up being a test, in a sense,” Mycroft explained, and he took, from his coat, two shiny gold medals. “Jimmy and Emma, because of your bravery, London is safe from the mad bomber. I hereby make you honorary members of British Intelligence, and you two will henceforth be known as The Baker Street Youth Detectives.”
    Mycroft paused to pin the medals on the twins. “Whenever a youth is in trouble, my brother Sherlock Holmes needs an extra hand, or the Queen herself needs your assistance, you shall answer the call of duty..with your parents’ permission, of course.”
    Jimmy and Emma winced at the last part but were surprised to see both of their parents beaming with pride. “If the Queen needs their assistance,” Mrs. MacDougall assured Mycroft, “then the twins will be there.”

    Dr. Watson suddenly shouted, “Three cheers for the Baker Street Youth Detectives!”
    While everyone cheered and applauded, Jimmy turned to Emma. “We did it, sis,” he said proudly.
    â€œWe sure did,” she agreed. “Now, I wonder what’s next in store for The Baker Street Youth Detectives…”

    Chapter 1: Sherlock Holmes’s Special Guests
    â€œThis is so exciting,” said Mrs. MacDougall. “I’ve never ridden in a landau [1] carriage before.” The MacDougall family was riding in a luxury carriage to go to the theatre. Tonight was the first performance of a play based on a Sherlock Holmes case.
    â€œI just hope the play isn’t boring,” said Mr. MacDougall. “Dressing in a suit! Riding in a gold plated coach! This ain’t to my liking,” he complained. Mr. MacDougall was a chimney sweep. He preferred wearing dirty jeans to dressing in a fancy suit.
    â€œNo need to worry, Father,” said Emma MacDougall. “This is a play about Sherlock Holmes, the world’s greatest detective.”
    â€œAnd,” Jimmy, Emma’s twin brother added, “it deals with a giant, killer snake!”
    â€œAww, that sounds good,” Mr. MacDougall chuckled, “but does it have a Violet Vampire?!?”
    â€œOh Dad, not that again!” said the twins together. Jimmy and Emma MacDougall were ten year old twin detectives. They had solved the case of the Mysterious Airship. Now, all the children of London came to them for help. Since the airship mystery, Jimmy and Emma had been working nonstop. They helped their friend, Nolan the Newsboy, find his stolen stack of papers. They helped the pet store solve the case of the kidnapped kitten. They even helped Scotland Yard track down a missing little boy, who was really a foreign prince.
    â€œDad, everyone knows that there is no such thing as a vampire,” Emma scolded.
    Mr. MacDougall smiled at his fiery, red haired daughter. “How do you know? It’s in all the papers.”
    Emma shook her head. There had been strange reports in East London of a bat winged monster attacking people. At first, it was one or two reports. Now, it seemed like every other day, people were reporting seeing a strange, violet colored creature with sharp teeth, and glowing red eyes.
