AN: I know this is really short, but I needed to introduce his character. It might be a slight AU, thus why I put this warning here. This story will switch back and forth from John and Sherlock's POV, so it might get confusing for a little while. It will help me write faster if you review.

By the time he was three years old, he could read complicated texts made for highschoolers, and had started conducting experiments in his free time. He had many friends, but they quickly came to realize that he was more intelligent then all of them combined. Knowing this, they became jealous and decided that Sherlock didn't want friends, as he always seemed to be talking to himself, and doing strange things when he was at home, or alone. It wasn't helped by the fact that Sherlock was 4 years ahead of them all. Sherlock soon found himself friendless, and with a reputation that made people stay away from him. Sherlock was left alone for reasons he didn't understand, and became bitter towards whole world. He decided to create a persona for himself so that he could infringe on societal norms without being completely shunned. In other words he became a sociopath. Well he did on the outside, but kept his incredibly caring center safe. As he grew older, he decided that when he grew up he would do something to help people, because even though most made fun of him or disliked him, he still felt like they had a right to be safe. He noticed his skills for observing early on, and that was when he knew.
