rabidsamfan"Watson, look out!"
Holmes's warning meant that I could brace myself for the impact of Merridew's furious attempt to knock me from my feet. I could not risk falling, not with Holmes still leaning upon my arm, and the boys nearest us were too small to support us both.
Nor did I wish Holmes to become involved in a fracas, although the color was high in his cheeks, and his hands were curled into fists. He and Merridew were of a height, and the one as damaged as the other, but I could not allow it.
"This is my fight."
