Prompt: July 13 - nature is red in tooth and claw
John gasped at the sharp and sudden burst of pain in the left side of his groin but grimly hung on to the end of the heavy trunk until Sherlock was well out of the way. Only then did he allow it drop to the floor and himself to curl up in agony. Sherlock made a cry of alarm but John ignored it. He was too busy silently cursing each and every one of his evolutionary ancestors for having endowed their male offspring with testicles that had to descend out of the body, thus leaving them prone to inguinal hernias.
