I now have my third fic up! (No worries, I'll still be continuing my other two...) In case you don't know, "Infernale" is Italian (according to my dictionary) for "hellish" or "devilish"

(Yeah, yeah, yeah. We all know that I don't own Detective Conan or Magic Kaito, even though all of us wish that we did...)

Also, here is some vocabulary that you might be confused with:

Touri= (I won't tell you right now)

Aneki= Older Sis (Similar to "ANIKI")

Gakuran= (the type of school uniform Kaito, Saguru, and Heiji wear)

"Mom! Dad! Where are you?" Saguru called into the seemingly endless, empty darkness. Desperately, he ran into every room, yelling out. He gasped for breath as he frantically banged open door after door. "Are you there?" Saguru's ears began to ring. He sank to the ground in the corner of his room as he clutched his head with both hands. He shut his eyes to try to blink back the tears, and ground his teeth to keep them from chattering. He covered his ears with his palms. This couldn't be happening. Not again. Out of fear, he screamed the only thing he could think of. "TOURIIIIIIII!!"

Saguru opened his eyes. He was back in his room, on his bed. Just a dream huh. No, more like a rerun. He sighed slightly as he put his right hand to his forehead. His head was banging. That's why you don't go running around until 4 in the morning, he told himself. He sighed deeply. Saguru suddenly heard the sound of Baaya calling him from downstairs. "Hmph." He got up, called back downstairs, "I'll be there in a few minutes," straitened out his blanket, and quickly got into a white shirt and his black school pants. Yawning, he entered the connecting bathroom, and picked up his toothbrush. He glanced at the toothbrush stand. There was one more than usual. "Hmph, she's back eh?" He said to himself.

"Thanks Baaya." Saguru said, grabbing a slice of toast off the thick, dark colored table where his breakfast was laid out on. He picked up his Gakuran jacket from the chair where it hung.

"Saguru. You're not going to eat the rest of that wonderful meal I made for you?" The old housemaid said with a smile.

"Sorry Baaya, but today seems to be a busy day. Besides, I want to wait until dinner to really eat a good meal." He picked up his bag, which was leaning against the wall beside the door, and slipped his cell phone into his pocket. He held a corner of the toast in his mouth. Saguru opened the door, stepped into his shoes, and left.

"Hey! Did you hear? There's going to be another transfer student today!" Ayumi told her friends excitedly.

Mitsuhiko spoke up. "Yes! I heard it's going to be a girl! Kobayashi-sensei said that her name is… uh…"

"Risou Naitou. The last name 'Naitou' comes from the characters meaning 'inside' and 'wisteria.' Risou is 'jasmine' and 'wise.' It's the name my mother's friend gave me." Ayumi, Mitsuhiko, Genta, Conan, and Haibara all turned around to face a dark haired, brown eyed girl. She smiled sweetly and said, "I'm going to be in this class for the rest of the year. I hope we can have lots of fun together." She giggled. Her shoulder length hair gave a slight bounce. The girl reached into her pants pocket and pulled out a watch. It was an old fashioned one with an opening cover and chain.

"Wow. That's a pretty fancy watch you have there," Conan said.

She smiled sadly while looking at the inside of the clock cover. "It's my grandmother's memento. She passed away when I was four. This is the picture of my family with her. It's my most important treasure," she said, turning her wrist so that the five of them facing her could see the watch. "See, that old lady standing behind me? That's my grandma. That's my mom and dad. My mother's British, just like my grandma," she said, pointing at the figures in the picture.

"That's the same as Haibara then. Her mother's British too. Right Haibara?" Conan said, turning to her.

"Yes, my mother was British. By the way, who is that boy right there?" Haibara asked. She pointed to a short child who was standing with Risou in the picture.

Risou was ready to answer the question which she had anticipated since a long time ago. "That's my older brother. He's been missing since half a year ago after he got caught by the waves at a beach in England. There was a huge storm after that, so the police said that he most likely wouldn't make it," she answered Haibara's question suavely. "He doesn't look very much like an older brother does he? I always ended up taking care of him. He was always so full of curiosity, but he was really small for his age, so he often ended up getting hurt all the time and I had to watch him when he got sick a lot. That's why he always used to call me Risou-nee." Risou stared at the picture with a nostalgic look. "His name was Tanshi. Our birthdays were just about one year apart."

"Risou and Tanshi huh. You both have rather interesting names. Did your mother's friend give your brother's name too?"

"That's right. I think she said you write it, 'search' and 'will.' She always said that the one with the will for curiosity will always be guarded by the wise one. Oh that's right, she used to tell us this old legend about something like that. It was really a long time ago so I can't remember what the story went like. That's where she got our names from."

"Risou-chan! Class is starting, so can you please come up to the front right now? I'd like for you to introduce yourself to the whole class" Kobayashi-sensei called from her desk at the front of the classroom. To the rest of the class, she said, "Everyone, please sit down at your seats. We have a new transfer student today, and I would like to introduce her to you. I expect all of you to welcome her with your most excellent behavior."

Everyone walked over to their seats while Risou skipped forward. Mitsuhiko whispered to Genta, "It always seems that people who are half-and-half of totally different ethnic groups are very cute doesn't it?"

Haibara sat down next to Conan in her seat. "I don't like that attitude of hers," she said.

"Huh, what do you mean?"

"I mean she the way she acts seems too intentional."

"Now that you mention it, her childishness seems sort of deliberate and overdone, especially for a first grader who just transferred from another school," Conan replied. "Well, it could just be that she's trying to fit in. She must be pretty nervous you know. I doubt there's really anything to worry about."

Haibara narrowed her eyes at Risou, who was now seated directly in front of the two of them, but didn't say anything. Trying to fit in only because she's new, or trying to fit in because that is not her true self?

Saguru Hakuba rested his chin on top of his interlocked fingers with his elbows propped up onto the window sill. He checked his watch. Nine minutes and twenty-seven seconds until lunch break was over. He suddenly felt a rush o air over his head, and looked up. Two feet dangled in front of him. "Kuroba, you really are quite a daredevil aren't you?" he said to the very playful teenager who was sitting on the metal bar that crossed the window, legs facing outward toward the schoolyard. "I hope you are aware that that bar is there as a safety precaution, regulated by the district. It isn't there for people to sit on."

"How cold. Maybe you can tell me what's on your mind. It's very unlike you to be daydreaming during class. Especially during biology when you can pick up useful information about corpses which you are most fond of," Kaito said with a grin.

Before the young detective could reply, he felt a slight vibration in his right pants pocket. Kaito looked down at him as Saguru pulled out his cell phone.

Text message? Kaito thought. He jumped down onto the hardwood floor.

"Hey, Kuroba. Give that back!" Saguru said to Kaito, who had snatched his cell phone out of his hand.

"Hey, Hey. Don't be so unfriendly. Let me take a look at this text message of yours. Uhh… let's see…" Kaito quickly browsed through the message history as he tried to keep the small object out of Saguru's reach. "Aha! A text message from… 'Nao.' Let's see what she has to say to you shall we? 'Hi Saguru-chan. It's been about half a year since we last got to go have some fun together. I'll meet you after school today at the usual spot. It'll be my treat. XXX –Nao-chan.'" Kaito whistled teasingly. "Got yourself a girlfriend, Hakuba? I'd like to go meet her," Kaito grinned and tossed the cell phone back to Saguru while making his own appear in his hand. He quickly sent a text message while muttering, "… late… after school… be home in time for dinner… okay, I'll come with you to meet this 'Nao-chan' person."

"Damn you Kuroba." Saguru muttered.

Rena Mizunashi had finally found her chance to contact Jodie Starling about news of a young member who was beginning to make their move. She glanced around as she quickly pressed the buttons on her cell phone. She held the phone to her ear, and waited impatiently to hear the click which would signal that the FBI agent had picked up. Jodie never interrupted or said anything. The young CIA agent spoke quickly.

"I'm sorry, but I have to be quick about this. I don't have anything new on Bourbon, but I have heard of a secret mission that a lone member is conducting. Only the boss and her parents, who are also members, have been informed of the details about her task. There are rumors of how this member is quite a dangerous one, maybe even more than Gin or Vermouth, but very few in this organization have actually ever met her in person. I have just once seen her real name printed on a file, but I only got a glimpse of the character 'steal.' But, as this name suggests, she is quite talented no, more like a genius not only in crime, but in nearly everything she does. In fact, the theft of the police records was organized by her back when they needed the information on Mouri-tantei, and she's even hacked into government computers, but only to prove that she could. Also, it's been said that she trained under Vermouth in the art of disguise. And yet, she's a mere teenager, about high school freshman age at the most. On top of that, she's got a real bitter personality, but can act and can sweeten herself. It's just like the origin of that spirit that comes from wormwood, and the name of it is derived from how an herbal drink made from wormwood was sweetened with honey and made drinkable to children. That's right. It's the alcoholic drink known as Absinthe."

Saguru sighed as he sat down at a counter in a small café near the train station. He set his bag down on the small shelf above the counter as Kaito followed suit. "So, she's not here yet? That 'Nao-chan…'"

"Shut up Kuroba."

"Oh, Saguru-chan. You brought a friend?" a voice said to the blonde teenager. Both Kaito and Saguru turned to face a beautiful, black haired woman, probably about 20.

No way, Kaito thought. Hakuba going out with someone that pretty and older than him by like, what? 3, 4 years? He stared at the woman. Her dark, amber eyes sparkled in his direction. He eyed her outfit. Really good fashion sense too. He could tell with his years of experience disguising. After a few seconds, Kaito finally attempted to speak. "So uh…"

"You should've told me you were back in Tokyo, Aneki!" Saguru said, cutting Kaito off.

For the first time in months, Kaito stammered in surprise. "A- A-Aneki?!?!?!"

Please review or else I will go and jump off the roof of my apartment building. (If you don't want to become a murderer, then do as I say... Just Kidding... not very funny is it...*scratches head wondering what to say next*...)
