Hello and welcome to another Detective Conan fanfic! Well, actually, this is just a revision of "You Lied To Me". I plan to edit the chapters and fix the grammar mistakes. Because I just had to.

Well, anyways, here's the chapter! But before you read, though, here's a disclaimer:

DISCLAIMER: Detective Conan and its characters are not by the author. They belong to Gosho Aoyama and Gosho Aoyama ONLY. The only thing the author claims is her fanfiction and the plot.

Thank you! You may continue on.

Fog envelopes the entire room, and she stands up, not knowing where she is or how she got there. But right about now, she was panicking; trying to find out where her friends are, her father, herself...

She could see a shadow from the mist, not too far away from her. The shadow was familiar; even if no defining features were seen that could make her identify them, still its position makes it quite clear that they were someone she knew of.

She calls out. "Hello?" Her voice resonates around the room. The figure must have heard, so they turned around. A grin was plastered on their face, and she shivers in... discomfort? Hurt?

Fear?

Regardless, she smiles triumphantly. Ah, finally! Someone who may guide her out of this mysterious place! She waves her hand kindly. "H-Hello? May I ask who you are and why you are here?"

She didn't expect the figure to speak, but they did. "Actually, I was supposed to ask you that question." They state out, then extends their hand. A dangerous object was what they were holding right now...

...And it was pointed at her.

She shakes in fear and raises both hands, surrendering. "Wh-What did I ever do?!" She questions shakily, blue eyes trembling in fear. "D-Did I do something bad for you to point your gun at me?"

The figure only chuckles darkly, ready to pull the trigger. Ah, so this was a woman. The voice's tone was evident enough. But she never really expected that a woman is pointing a gun at her.

"H-How did you get your weapon?!" She asks the figure again. "Th-That's illegal! You can't be carrying a gun around like that!"

They chuckle again, and this time, she flinches in annoyance. Why doesn't she want to answer? Is she hiding a secret? Regardless, this attitude was really starting to get on her nerves.

After all the laughter, only then do they speak.

"You do realize we are in the fog, where no one can see us, right?"

Her eyes widen upon that realization. She looks around; the fog is still there, trapping them in their own little dark world. How did I get here, really? She questions herself. How?

They add pressure to the trigger, and she faces the gun again. They were really going to kill her, and she can't do anything about it anymore.

The figure speaks again.

"Let's see who wins the fight then, Angel."

Angel? She wonders, not really knowing what that means. Why did she call me Angel?

Before she could even answer her own question, a gun shot was fired.

Everything went black after that.

Mouri Ran yawns and sits up from her bed, stretching her arms. "Oh my God!" She blurts out sleepily, rubbing her blue eyes. Seeing the rays of the sun hitting her face, she covers herself with her arm, then shrugs to herself. "That dream was... weird..." She muttered to herself.

Conan Edogawa stirred from his slumber after hearing Ran's voice. He jolts sleepily up his bed, groaning. "Mmm... Ran-neechan..." He closed his eyes and lay back down on his bed, trying to sleep again. "Don't be so loud... I still want to sleep!"

Ran scoffed at Conan, standing up from her bed and walking up to the closet to choose her uniform. "Conan, you do remember that it's Monday, right? And that every Monday to Friday, there are classes?" She informed the boy, then glanced at the clock. She grinned at Conan. "Oh, look. It's 6:38 a.m. already. You still don't wanna wake up?"

With that reminder, Conan's eyes shot itself open. "Oh, no!" He quickly jumped out of bed and raced for the bathroom. "I'm going to be late!" He yelled, with Ran giggling at this reaction.

Nothing's funny here, Ran! The shrunken detective thought, stripping off his pajamas and getting ready to take a bath. There's this certain activity that needs to happen at exactly 7:00! I can't afford being late at such an important time as this!

Ran peeked through the CR's curtains, Conan's shadow visible to him. "Lesson learned, Conan-kun! Wake up early in the morning for school!" She chirped from outside the bathroom. "You might get late. Or maybe... you ARE late."

The bespectacled boy groaned. "Ran-neechan, please remind me to teach you not to tease anyone who are going to be late for school." He said. The older girl just laughed.

"Anyway, Conan-kun! Just hurry up in there! I'm still gonna take a bath, you know?" Ran yelled from outside, before she went to the his closet to get some clothes from him. Conan could simply sigh as he turned on the shower. Once he turned it on, water from the shower started to rain all over his body.

Suddenly, he remembered something about going to Agasa's because of another important matter he needs to share with the shrunken boy. Conan remembered that it was urgent, and he needed to come to his house as soon as possible.

Some news, Agasa, some news. He thought, rolling his eyes at the memory. Maybe it's just another dumb invention or something.

"Conan! Hurry!" Ran shouted, making the young boy gasp in surprise. "H-Hai, Ran-neechan!" He replied, quickly washing his own body off with the water splashing over him.

Ran, you didn't have to shout like that!

"Edogawa Conan. You are late."

Conan knew he was going to get a comment like that from his teacher.

He arrived at exactly 7:05 a.m. Yes, he was late for five minutes. But he sure as hell has a reason why he got late like that. Kogoro Mouri, his "uncle", presumably decided to question him as to where his beer bottles are. He tried convincing the older man that he would NEVER steal them away, but to no avail; Kogoro was still shouting. The last thing he saw before leaving the house was Ran scolding her father for blaming a young child to have his beer bottles.

And now, here he was, being stared upon by his classmates and his teacher glaring at him intently.

Conan scratched his head. "Ahaha, s-sorry, Sensei..." He apologized, feeling the bump he received from Kogoro still present. "I had an argument with my uncle early this morning. He thinks I was hiding his beer bottles somewhere; I don't know why he took the blame on me."

This was received by a burst of giggles from the whole class, and the surprised look of the teacher. Conan glared at the giggling students, who immediately tried to shut up. He then turned back to his teacher. "I-I would have come here earlier had my uncle not disturb me and demand his beer bottles."

The teacher only blinked, keeping quiet for a few seconds. She then nodded. "Alright, I understand. You may now take you seat, Edogawa-kun."

"Arigatou gozaimasu!" Conan bowed before running up to his seat next to Ai Haibara.

The auburn-haired girl snickered after seeing her friend. "Really? Kogoro-san blamed you on hiding his beer bottles?" She asked. "I find that really hard to believe."

Conan glared at her before turning back to his seat. "Hey, it really happened. That idiot knows very well that I have no interest in his beer bottles."

"Now class, settle down..." The teacher began. She was now discussing about the activity that they are about to do. "Your partner will be the one seated next to you." When she said that, Ai and Conan glared at each other with a challenging look. "Now, bring out your materials. I will start giving instructions once everyone is ready."

Conan and Ai immediately took out their materials, with the bespectacled detective finishing first. He then looked out of the window in boredom. I hope this class ends earlier than expected... He thought, then glanced at Ai.

Her joyful expression from earlier suddenly turned to doubt as she picked out her materials from her bag. Now what happened to her now? Did she leave something at home?

"Now, to start our activity..."

Conan could only look at Ai's doubtful face, while she listened intently to the teacher. He sighed to himself and shrugged, turning to the teacher.

Maybe I should just ask her later.

Streams of students ran out of the hallway with bags behind their backs. Their mouths were curled up into smiles as they ran up to their lockers to get their shoes.

It was announced that there was an urgent meeting that is about to happen to all the teachers of the campus, so they were only halfday today. Conan and his friends can't help but be delighted with this news. Ayumi, Mitsuhiko, and Genta were actually planning on dropping by Hakase Agasa's home today.

Conan chuckled as he took his shoes from his locker, dropping them to the floor. "Really, Ayumi? Will your parents even allow you to visit?"

Ayumi nodded enthusiastically. "Of course! My mother always agrees with me!" She then took out her phone to send a message to her mother. "Surely she would agree this time-"

It took a moment for her to realize that she received a text message from her mother, saying that she should come home because of an urgent happening with the family. Ayumi frowned and sighed sadly, shaking her head as she placed her phone back inside her pocket. She pouted. "Aww, I won't be able to go hang out with you guys," She turned to Genta and Mitsuhiko. "Are you two free?"

With that question, both shook their head. "Mother told me earlier that she wouldn't allow me to hang out with anyone, because she wants to see me study." Mitsuhiko replied. Genta nodded. "Me too. She also wants to spend some time with me."

Ai nodded in understanding. She smiled reassuringly at the three. "Well, that's a shame. But there's always a next time." She told the three.

The trio nodded, then turned to leave for their own home. "Bye, Conan-kun! Bye, Ai-chan!" They yelled, before finally disappearing into the crowd of students who want to go home.

Ai smiled, then turned to Conan. "Well, we should get going." She urged the boy, then tugged on his shirt. "There's something I would like to tell you."

"Hey, Ai, what's going on?" The boy inquired, stopping Ai from her tracks. "In class, you seem to be worried about something. Then in recess, you gave me a cold stare. What's wrong?"

Those questions were left unanswered by the auburn-head. Instead, she sighed and glared at Conan.

"You will know later."

"Oji-san! I'm home!"

Conan chimed from the sala as he put his bag on the sofa, turning to the Detective table. He sweat-dropped once he saw Kogoro sleeping lazily on the chair, a stack of beer bottles surrounding him.

Hearing his voice made the sleeping detective stir in his slumber, further waking him up. The detective scoffed once he saw the bespectacled boy. "Oi, Conan," He called out, sipping on another root beer he had on his hand. "You're here early. Were you cutting classes?"

I am NOT cutting classes, you drunkard. He thought. "Oji-san, we're halfday today, that's why I was here early." He explained, then started heading down the flight of stairs. "By the way, Oji-san! I'm going to Agasa-hakase's house today, if you don't mind! Bye!" With one last wave, Conan exited the house. He could hear Kogoro about to protest, but he got out of the house, anyway.

He saw Haibara waiting patiently outside of the Mouri Agency. She smiled once she saw Conan emerge from the entrance. "Well, since you're already ready, let's go." She urged the boy, then walked off on her own, not bothering to wait for Conan.

The boy only raised an eyebrow, but followed suit. He ran up to her with a questioning look on his face. "Haibara, what's wrong?" He asked again. "You've been keeping something secret from me and I know it. What the hell is going on?"

Haibara only turned her head and nonchalantly stared at him. "Ask Agasa. I'm not really sure how to answer that question." She then looked over to the road, seeing that they were nearing Agasa's abode. "But you do have to know that what he is going to tell you is really bad; bad enough for you to flinch."

Edogawa smirked teasingly. "Like... his inventions, per se?"

Haibara burst into laughter before her face immediately went serious.

"No. Even worse than that."

Agasa panicked on the field of his own home. He just received a test message from Haibara saying that they were half-day today. Good. Enough time to actually tell Conan about them.

He paced back and forth just in front of his door, worry painting on his face. Where are they? He wondered to himself. They should be here right now. They're halfday today, right? They should be here.

Or maybe I was just exaggerating too much.

Finally, after a few more paces, he finally saw two child-like figures entering the gates. He sighed in relief. "Ah, Shinichi! Shiho!" He called out, running up to them. "Finally, you two are here!"

Considering that the Professor just called him by his real name a while ago, he immediately sent a signal for Agasa to keep quiet. "Shh! Agasa, you're too loud!" He then walked up to the professor. "By the way, what's gotten you into a frenzy, Agasa? Something wrong?"

Agasa inhaled and exhaled, before turning to the shrunken detective. "Shinichi... I've got some important news for you."

Shinichi only raised an eyebrow. "What kind of news?"

The professor's reply made the detective's eyes widen, and Ai's expression to go dark.

"...Bad news."

Well? How did it go?

This is the revised edition of the first chapter, everyone. I hope you liked it. To be honest, I actually like this more than the previous one. It kinda makes more sense now, like what happened to Ayumi, Mitsuhiko and Genta and why they didn't appear with Conan and Ai in the professor scene. Also added Ran's dream.

All other chapters will be edited, so stay tuned!

Sayonara and see you all in the next chapter!

R&R!
