This story is indirectly related to the manga Heads and is in no way a crossover, the main characters in Detective Conan will not be meeting any characters from Heads. In this fan-fiction I am only using a storyline idea from Heads. In this fan-fiction I will relate to the main character of Heads a few times but only indirectly. This story actually has nothing to do with Heads so don't get confused. Sorry if any of the characters seem OOC but this is my first fan-fiction so don't beat me up too much. Please don't be afraid to tell me about errors or if my story is too fast or slow for you. I will try my hardest to update this fan-fiction at least every week.
Disclaimer: If I owned Detective Conan there would be more serial murderers and more Eisuke. =P
Chapter 1 ~ Two knights to save the princess
Conan Edogawa finally decided to wake up, it was already 10 o'clock but the extreme humidity made him lethargic. The detective boys haven't shown up yet either, thankfully, but he knew they could be barging in any minute to make him play kick the can or hide and seek. Ran invited him to go shopping with her and Sonoko around 9 o'clock but there was no way he was going to help carry her bags around.
After Conan got dressed he heated up the breakfast Ran had prepared for him in the fridge, he always liked her miso soup. I wonder if shes having fun shopping, he thought as a knock came to the door. Conan looked to the door dreading the detective boys but when he opened it none other than Suzuki Sonoko was looking at him with a worried expression.
"Is Ran here?" she questioned "I have been waiting at the mall for a whole hour because of her, she better explain herself!" Conan looked dumbfounded at Sonoko processing the information that ran was missing.
"What!" Conan finally exclaimed "If shes not here and if shes not with you, where the heck did she go! What could have prevented her from going to the mall." At that the realization finally struck Sonoko and her face paled "Wha-what Ran's missing! Hey, don't tell me she was kidnapped, Ran doesn't just leave without telling anyone!"
"Calm down Sonoko we don't know for sure if she was kidnapped or not, maybe she just got held up somewhere." Conan reassured "Go check anywhere between here and the mall to see if she got held up on her way, I will look around here to see if there is some sort of ransom note in case she really did get kidnapped."
Geez, why do I have to do what this brat says, Sonoko thought, but he does make a good point and it's the best plan we have right now so I have to go along with it. "Fine!" she fumed "But if you find out anything about Ran you better call me right away." and with that Sonoko ran out the door.
There is no way that the kidnappers note is inside the house because I would have seen or heard a stranger creeping around, Conan thought to himself, or Ojisan's drunk expression would have scared them away. If there is a ransom note it will either be in the mailbox or somewhere on the steps but if it was on the steps Sonoko would have seen it. There is a chance the culprit didn't leave a note and might call the detective agency instead but it wont hurt to look in the mailbox.
Conan opened up the mailbox finding a package addressed to Mouri Kogoro but he quickly disregarded it because it said Yoko Okino 2013 calender on the mailing sticker. Under the calender he found a couple of bills and picked them up. When he picked up the bills a small tan envelope fell out from between them landing on the ground. Something on the envelope caught his eye and sent dread through his body, the dread that only the black organization can stir.
Slowly Conan bent down to pick up the fallen letter and noted his fake name on the back, his eyes widened as he turned it around to the wax seal on the front. The seal was crimson red but the letter etched into the wax frightened him "V" Vermouth? No, it couldn't be, Vermouth doesn't care much for kidnapping. The black organization doesn't really kidnap people but if it's to get me alone it might just be the easiest method, Conan thought. Conan knew that this is the day he will probably die to save the one he loves. Conan slowly broke the wax seal and pulled out the message finally reading the words imprinted on the page.
"Dear, Kudo Shinichi if you want your girlfriend to survive
you will come to the abandoned warehouse behind Haido
Central Hospital. If you do not appear before 2 o'clock then
she will be killed. When you come bring this letter with you.
You know what will happen if you contact the police. Come
and she will be set free, don't come and everyone you know
shall die leaving you to die last."
Vodka
It looks like Vodka wrote the note but Conan knew that Gin was behind it. Conan looked at his watch, it was 10:32, he had 3 and a half hours to save ran and he knew he would be killed in her place. He had to go because he didn't want ran to die. Conan rushed out into the street calling for a taxi to bring him to Haido Central Hospital.
Ran woke up tied, gagged, and blinded with no sense of direction or inclination of where she was. All Ran knew is that she was sitting on dirty concrete, probably in a building somewhere. Ran squirmed in her bindings trying to scream but could only make a muffled noise. Just then a hand grabbed her shoulder and a deep voice called to her "shut up girl, you will be released as soon as we say so and if you become trouble I think I might just kill you now." As he finished his sentence she heard the sound of a gun cock making her tremble and freeze up in fear.
Conan jumped out of the taxi practically throwing his money at the driver telling him to keep the change. The bad traffic made him lose a half hour and it is currently 11: 13. Conan has plenty of time until 2 o'clock but he never knew when Gin would get trigger happy. He had to save ran at all costs, had to run with all of his might so they don't shoot her. "Faster, run faster" he screamed at himself and turned around the corner to the other side of the hospital.
"Oof!" Conan grunted, he had run into something and the letter he was holding flew out of his hand. He hit the ground hard on his butt but got back up to see what he had run into. What Conan saw was a girlish looking boy about 17 wearing large circular glasses picking himself up off of the ground. "Eisuke what are you doing here?" Conan asked. Eisuke looked flustered for a moment but quickly noticed Conan was the one that knocked him down.
"Oh Conan hi how are you doing I haven't seen you in awhile..." Eisuke looked beside him noticing a brown envelope "Hey whats this? Is it some kind of love letter?" he joked taking out the note. "Uwahh, Don't look at that!" Conan warned but Eisuke opened it anyway and snuck a peek at the letter's contents.
"Oh my god!" Eisuke exclaimed "Ran was kidnapped!? We have to go save her from this Vodka guy but why doesn't he want anything other than for you to show up? Come on lets go get her back!"
"No!" Conan threatened "You cant come with me, just pretend you didn't see that note and leave now unless you want to die too!"
"Screw that!" Eisuke retorted "I cant just sit idly by and know Ran is in trouble, you of all people should understand that, I can help."
Conan screamed in annoyance "No, you cant, it's only something I can do and if you get in the way they will just shoot her so don't follow me!" Conan quickly snatched the letter from Eisuke's hand and ran off into the direction of the warehouse. Eisuke sat for a few minutes trying to understand but still wasn't convinced by Conan's plea and started after him.
Conan stopped at the warehouse huffing from the hard run and found one of the doors slightly cracked open. Readying his tranquilizer watch Conan creaked open the door and peered inside. He didn't see anything other than darkness but knew they were there waiting for him to come inside.
"Hey Conan." a voice sounded behind him making him jump like a kangaroo on crack. Conan looked behind him and let out a sigh of relief. "Damn it Eisuke you scared the crap out of me. Didn't I tell you not to follow me!" but it was too late to get rid of him because all of a sudden the lights in the warehouse all turned on revealing Gin with a Beretta m9 pistol in his left hand pointed at Conan's forehead.
"Oh look at this you brought another mouse for us to kill, Shinichi." Gin chided "Don't worry we will let her go but now both of you have to die because he saw my face." Vodka was standing in a corner of the warehouse with ran tied up waiting with a knife to cut her wrist bindings. "I think I will start with your friend here so you can feel the pain of losing someone before you die." Gin stated with murderous intent "Now come here little mouse."
Eisuke stood, all color drained from his face and did as the man said, he knew what was coming next and he didn't want to die but he had to or they would kill ran. "He has nothing to do with this just let him go!" Conan reprimanded but only got an evil glare from Gin, Conan knew he couldn't get Eisuke out of this and if he acted on his friend's behalf everyone would probably die.
"BANG!" The gun fired but it felt like slow motion, Conan could only watch in pure shock as Eisuke fell to the ground. The bullet entered his left temple and went all the way through and out the left side of his head, he was most likely dead. Conan dropped to the ground in tears over what had just transpired and noticed Eisuke's eyes, they still had life and could still see.
"BANG!" Another shot was fired,Conan dropped to the ground and felt immense pain shoot through his left leg, he quickly realized he had been shot. "Do you feel that you little shit" Gin laughed "that's what you get for not dying like a good little boy when we gave you the pill. Here have another one." he said setting the gun barrel to his chest.
"BANG!" The third shot was fired right through Conan's right lung. Conan gasped in pain and for oxygen but still managed to look up. Gin looked like he was having fun but turned to Vodka quickly and gave him the signal to cut Ran's bindings then turned back to Conan. "It looks like you aren't very much fun so I guess I will kill you so your girlfriend can mourn over your death, goodbye Shinichi." and with that he held his gun to Conan's right temple.
"BANG!" The last shout sounded and rang through Conan's head, everything seemed to blur at once as he fell backwards. The bullet went straight through his head and out the right side. For a second everything seemed to spin and the darken as Conan lost consciousness.
Whew! I finally finished the first chapter, I know it's slow and not much has really happened yet but the next chapter will get better. I still dont like my writing style and might change it in the future but I still want to get my story out there. If you like this story please rewiew and if not review anyway just to tell me if I suck or not. I still can't believe i'm writing a crazy story like this but it's fun. Yeah!
