Heehee :) So here it is, the sequel to At the End. This is also a stand alone story too so there's no need to go read At the End if you never read it, but it's better if you do.

Disclaimer: I don't own anything. All the characters and the everything goes to the awesome Gosho Aoyama.

Shinichi's foot feel heavy as he step out from his house. For some reason, he feels sad. Like something is dying in him. He look around, thinking to himself, 'this is going to be the last day I'm Conan'. He walks to school, mesmerizing every inch of the view and the angle he's seeing things in. On the way, he saw Ayumi, Genta, and Mitsuhiko. His eye softens and he waves at them.

"Ohaiyo Conan-kun!" They all said in unison. When they all catch up with him, they starts to talk about the usual stuff, homework, the recent murder case, the morning news, etc.

'They all looks so happy.. how could I tell them? That I'm leaving today..' Shinichi's heart aches. Walking in the middle between them-his friends, his eye suddenly wells up with the unwanted tears. Quickly, he tries to wipe them away. Relief that his friend didn't notice, he casually joins into the conversation. 'I better not tell them until later.. it's better this way..'

"You guys go on first ok? I'll catch up later." Shinichi says as he walks toward the school office. Again, he walks slowly, passing each room, the art room, the music room, and the cafeteria. When he finally reached the door of the office, he clutch on his backpack straps tighter and he push the door and walks inside. He never came here often, but somehow, it feels somewhat cozy.

Standing in front of the office lady's desk, he clears his throat and says "Um.. excuse me, I'm here to sign myself out of school… I mean, I have the paper works and everything.." He reached into his backpack and pulls them out his fake IDs, birth certificate, his 'parent's letter with their signature, and the school enrollment paper.

The office lady, eyes wide cry, "Conan-kun! You're leaving us? Why so suddenly? I mean, it's still the middle of the semester…"

"Um.. heh heh, something came up so I have to go back to America with my parents…" Shinichi lamely says.

She then told him to sit down on the sofa and together; they go through the paperwork, having 'Conan' sign the papers all those other stuff they do when student is leaving school.

When they were done, she sends him back to class with a late-pass and a note to the teacher.

Taking a deep breath, he opens the door into his classroom and gives the note to Ms. Kobayashi, his homeroom teacher. Her face turn pale when she finish reading the note. Tears fall down her face and she stood there, looking at Conan.

"eh? Kobayashi sensei, please don't cry, I mean, I-It's not that-" Shinichi babbled, trying to calm her down.

"Conan-kun, how could you still… I… you're leaving afterall.." Kobayashi sensei whimpers, wiping her tears away.

The class turns silence.

Then,

"EHHHH?" The whole class exclaims all at once. The boys came rushing over to Conan, while as the girls follows soon afterwards. The Detective Boys, they stay at their desk; their eyes blank. Ayumi was the first to react. A single drop of tear rolls down her cheek; then more and more follows. Her body shakes and she clasp her tiny hand together. She tries to brush the tears away but the tears keep on rolling down. Raising up from her seat, she slowly walks toward Conan; walking faster and then running toward Conan. The crowd give ways to her and she, when she reached him, she stops. Looking at him. More tears drop down her cheeks and she embraces him, finally letting herself cry out loud. Like a little girl, she bawls and sob from her grief.

Seeing Ayumi like that, Genta and Mitsuhiko came and join the embrace. Shinichi feels his heart break. The rest of the class, then too, starts to sob. All the girls, whom all have a crush on Shinichi, cries together in a little corner. The boys they, trying to look strong, didn't cry as much but most of them, all have red eyes by the end of first period.

Ms. Kobayashi declares that they would throw a farewell party doing the afternoon class.

Ok. For some reason, I can't seem to fit in Haibara into any part of this story. She just doesn't seem to fit. Let's just say that she's staying home at Agasa'a deciding on what to do with her life. Wither she would take the pill or not. I'll just say that for my story, she's not taking the pill and is going to relive her childhood that she had lost. Wait, scratch that, I'll write a separate one-shot for her then. I'll name that story 'Haibara's Decision' Look forward for that story kay? I would probably get around to writing that sometime soon when I finish this story.

Next chapter would be out soon. Maybe at April 10 or something. I can't guarantee. Songkran break is starting on the 13th and I'll be traveling to Japan with my family so I won't be updating as much.
