p style="text-align: center;"It was the dead of night. No cars went by, nor footsteps were heard. Conan managed to slip out from the detective agency, and darted behind a tree, as if trying to blend in with the brown branches./p
p style="text-align: center;"He uttered a single word, something that could change his whole life./p
p style="text-align: center;""Gin."/p
p style="text-align: center;"At first nothing seemed to reply, but Conan knew better. Then a myseterious tall figure, completely draped in black came towrds him. You'd think he would flinch, but this was exactly what he expected./p
p style="text-align: center;" /p
p style="text-align: center;""Well, Detective boy..or should I say..man..have you finally made your choice?"/p
p style="text-align: center;" /p
p style="text-align: center;""Yes." Conan replied. He grimaced, knowing what was about to arrive. /p
p style="text-align: center;"Gin smiled. "Really? You'd accept our invitation to join the black organization, if it means to protect your petty friends? My, my, are you foolish. And determined too..that's why we need blood like yours."/p

p style="text-align: center;" /p
p style="text-align: center;""From now on, you refer to me as boss. And of course...Kudo." He tossed him a small vial, containing the antidote to the poison. "And remember, any of your trouble making, I will make sure personally that you and your friends get murdered."/p
p style="text-align: center;"Conan swallowed the liquid, and the ever so familiar transforming began. Except, this time..was different. As if he knew he would be losing something..and it hurted a lot more. Heartache, perhaps?/p
p style="text-align: center;" /p
p style="text-align: center;"He felt himself growing taller..bigger, until he finally opened his eyes, and saw his normal, unshruken self. Surprisingly, his clothes had managed to expand to his current size. An update?/p
p style="text-align: center;"Gin bared his teeth. "Now, Kudo, follow me..or do I have to do it forcefully?"/p
p style="text-align: center;"Conan, now Shinichi Kudo, followed, not wanting to make trouble, for fear of his friends' death./p
