if you don't know the connection between Subaru and Akai (which means you didn't read or watch the Scarlet arc) then Spoiler alert, do not read this. also if you're not his fan since most of it will be about him and Jodie and the organization.

I couldn't help but notice that there are very few fanfics about Shu. how could this be! I mean the man is one of my favorite characters, but it seems like his fan base isn't as big as I expected.

The battle against the BO won't start until in later chapters along with the appearance of Conan. For now, let's find out what will trigger Shu.

I'm sorry I talk too much now ignore me and read...

Chapter 1: Spaced out

Music suggestion: All that we are- creel commission

Chapter 1 characters: Jodie Starling, Gin, Andre Camel.

Chapter genre: angst, mystery.

She looked out of the taxi window at the ashen charcoal colored sky, she then focused her gaze on the raindrops racing down the glass as big, heavy drops of water kept on falling from the sky creating a pleasant sound.

The weather just suited the way she was feeling, as though it was some form of consolation to the blue-eyed lady sitting on the back seat of the taxi.

Jodie looked like a mess, her clothes were dusty and unorganized and her hair was all tangled she'd thrown it behind her ears just to get it out of her way, it was a wonder that the taxi driver stopped for her looking the way she looked.

"Are you okay miss?" the driver asked looking at her from the rear mirror.

Jodie was pale. Her mouth hung with lips slightly parted and her eyes looked wider than they would normally be still focusing a glassy look on the racing drops of rain. She has been like that ever since she told him her destination about ten minutes ago, which made him feel a little worried.

She did not seem to hear him, she was spacing out to a whole other universe.

"Miss!"

"Yes!" She said, finally looking at him.

"Are you okay?"

"Oh, y-yeah, I'm fine thanks" she smiled at him weakly before looking back at the window.

Jodi actually was so very far from fine, she was thinking about what happened just before she hopped into this taxi and with the memory still fresh in her mind, she recalled everything without forgetting any single little detail.

She was driving with Andre Camel to grab some lunch only to run into a black Porsche they knew too well parked in the restaurant parking lot.

Camel suggested they go look for Gin inside but Jodie denied thinking that he might not be inside the restaurant. They were both starving so Camel decided to go in, look around for Gin and buy them something to eat while Jodie will stay in the parking lot and keep the Porsche under surveillance in case Gin shows up.

blue eyes followed Camel until he got in and then looked back at the parked Porsche. Not long after, the silver-haired man showed up from the left corner of the building.

Just as she expected he wasn't inside, Jodie thought as she grinned in satisfaction grabbing her phone to call Andre only to wind up jumping from the sudden sound of a phone ringing next to her.

"Oh crap, he forgot his phone" she muttered.

The sound of the Porsche engine starting met her ear followed by it back up, and then it burned rubber as the wheels spun leaving smoke coming off the tires.

Gin was fast, and for the first time was alone and not accompanied by vodka, it was just one of the very few chances she could get so she couldn't miss it now by going inside the restaurant for Camel.

Eyes narrowed with determination, Jodie drove her car behind him keeping a more or less safe distance as she reached for her phone calling James black to ask for some backup.

She kept Weaving dangerously in and out of traffic, half blinded by bullet sized raindrops thundering onto the windshield for about twenty minutes, that's when they reached a place that had nothing but abandoned warehouses from every direction, there was no other car but theirs making it harder for her to be unnoticed but she kept following him anyway. The Porsche started to slow down until it finally stopped.

While Gin was in her line of sight, Jodie's car was still meters away. She slowed down sending a quick brief text to James about their location and then she stopped her car parallel to the Porsches but with a fairly away distance in between. looking up from her phone screen, she saw the Porsche parked still. However, Gin was nowhere to be seen.

Jodie pulled out a gun from her coat pocket, blue eyes darting more wildly with each passing second scanning the abandoned area for any moving object. Yet, she didn't step out of the car, because you know what's scarier than fighting Gin all alone? It's fighting an invisible Gin that she had no idea from where he could possibly appear and blow her head up.

Her eyes dropped down to her phone screen after a while, it's been five minutes since he had disappeared, that's good she thought because her goal now is to stay alive for the next couple of minutes until the backup comes to the location. She can't just leave now seeing that she had to keep an eye on his car, Gin wouldn't leave without his precious Porsche because if he was willing to leave he wouldn't have stopped it there in the first place. Jodie reached for the Floor Liner hiding her phone underneath it, just in case...

Boom

A gunshot suddenly cracked into the air as loud as the thunder that was striking.

The smashed glass that was once the window next to Jodie laid on the car floor and all over her lap like tiny daggers causing her to jump in reflex. Luckily the shot was intended for the window. She knew too well that if it was planned for her, Gin wouldn't have missed.

Looking at the bullet source on her right, she pointed her gun towards it, but he wasn't there. There was only a spooky silence that was interrupted by the sudden opening of the door to the passenger seat and before she could even respond, a gun tip was pressed against her forehead.

"Put the gun down and put your hands where I can see them" his threatening voice ordered.

Jodie didn't respond, she kept the gun in her hand still pointed towards her right, opposite to Gin's direction. She felt him pressing the gun tip harder on her head.

"Five, four, three, two…" he started counting down with a very calm tone that didn't fit the situation at all. Jodie let go of her gun raising her hands up as she was ordered looking at him from the corner of her eyes.

"Good girl" Gin's face split into his habitual freaky grin as he picked up her gun "now step out of the car and don't try being a hero or I won't hesitate to blow your head up "

The wind blew her golden hair as she stepped out looking around, hoping that the backup finally reached the place, but it still felt as deserted as when she first got there. Gin walked to her, gun still pointed at her head before he placed something over her nose that soon made her lose consciousness.

Next chapter: Face to face with Gin

*the driver seat is on the right side in Japan.

I hope that wasn't too short as a prologue. Actually, I already wrote this whole thing in my mind in which the Boss will be uncovered as someone Conan knew.

Until next time, love you :*
