Chapter 1
Gin blinked disbelievingly. In front of him was standing a teenage girl with blonde hair, green eyes, and the biggest glasses he'd ever seen. He turned to Vermouth. "You want me to do what now?"
"Look after her," the actress replied, as if it were the most obvious thing in the world.
"Why?? This isn't a daycare center, and I'm sure as hell not a babysitter!" the silver-haired man snarled.
The girl blinked a couple of times, then pointed at him, exclaiming, "Oh, you must be Kelly! Chris-obaasan told me about you!" Immediately, she was suddenly looking down the barrel of a gun.
"Never say that name again," Gin threatened, his eyes narrowed in anger. "Not unless you have a death wish." Then he noticed that Vermouth was holding a gun to his head.
"Kill my niece, and you are utterly screwed," the blonde said sweetly. Vermouth then noticed that there was a gun pointed at her head.
"Kill aniki and you're next," Vodka vowed.
Just then, the teen, the source of this whole situation, held up an oddly shaped object. "Anyone starts killing anyone and I drop this grenade!" she announced cheerfully.
Everyone blinked, then lowered their guns. After about a 10 second awkward silence, Vodka spoke. "Still, why do we have to watch her?"
"Because, not only am I too busy doing very important stuff (that I won't tell you about), anokata was very impressed with the way you handled her up till the time she defected," Vermouth informed Gin smoothly. Neither of the men could think of a proper comeback or complaint, so, reluctantly, after giving Vermouth a mutinous death glare, Gin nodded.
After the actress had left, Gin turned to the woman's niece. "If I'm going to be babysitting you," he sneered, "then I should at least know your name so I can yell at you properly."
"I'm Kilju," the girl replied, grinning with just a touch of lunacy. "How do you get your hair like that? Do you use a special brand of shampoo?"
He'd barely known the girl two minutes, and he already wanted to kill her. This was going to be a difficult assignment…
Note: Kilju is a Finish alcoholic beverage, made primarily with sugar, water, and yeast. It is mainly consumed for the sake of its alcohol content.
A/N: Well, my first Detective Conan fanfic! Hope I got a good handle on the characters and didn't make them too OOC. And, oh, yeah, her would be Sherry, a.k.a. Haibara Ai. I'm basically planning on making Gin's life a living hell ^-^ Thanks to StargateNerd for helping me beta, and the voices for giving me good ideas. Don't forget to review, please!
