Here's the last chapter! I think most of you can figure out what's going to happen, right?
Okay, I think this is one of the fanfics that I'm not particularly proud of, but still, read and comment?

Disclaimer: I was one when Detective Conan first came out. I'll have to be some extremely talented baby to own this series (which I'm obviously not)


Haibara Ai was typing furiously on the keyboard. She knew what she was doing was hopeless, but she had to try. If not, all hope would be lost. Not for her, but for the one that calls himself Edogawa Conan.

Within weeks of obtaining her data and samples of the APTX-4869, she found the flaw to her design of the prototype antidote. The problem was this; the flaw could not be corrected. She spent more and more time in the lab, drowning herself in this new discovery, trying to find a way to correct the flaw or bypass it, so that Shinichi could go back to being a high school student, back by Ran's side…

She heard the door open behind her. She assumed it was either the professor or Shinichi trying to see what she was doing, so when she heard a female voice, she was shocked out so much she nearly jumped. She looked back to see Ran behind her, eyes red as if she had been crying and her entire body soaked to the bone. She stared at her, trying to make a response but failing miserably, unable to comprehend the scene before her.

"Shinichi tried to breakup with me."

Although it was a statement that was said clearly, the wavering of her voice was clearly evident to the shrunken teenage scientist. That statement made her eyes grow wide in horror as she realised what it really meant. Shinichi had discovered that she was unable to make a permanent antidote. He had tried to take it into his own hands. She struggled to process the information that was being passed to her, before Ran broke her line of thought once more.

"Ai…can I ask a favour of you?"

The girl that was Miyano Shiho looked up at the person she thought as her elder sister. She wondered what request was going to come from her. As Ran said her insane request, her eyes widened even further as she tried hard not to faint. Both Ran and Ai looked at each other in a deafening silence as the little scientist looked for a way to answer to Ran. In the end, she gave in, telling Ran to wait as she got off her seat to find the item she needed, all the way trying to convince herself that she was making the right choice.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~to the next scene~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Shinichi, now in the child form of Conan, sat in the park as he dried his eyes and tried to look normal. He doubted that he had ever looked normal but he tried, at least, to be as normal as Conan could ever be. If Ran was to get over him she needed someone to help her and he was sure that Conan could provide at least a bit of comfort.

He felt a tap on his shoulder. Since it was this late, he thought that perhaps Heiji had come to accompany him or that Professor Agasa had come to comfort him. What he did not expect to see was the 9-year-old form of Ran standing right behind him. He fell back, staring at the small child that was looking down at him.

Before he could even ask a thing, the child jumped onto him and hugged him, answering the question that was burning inside of him.

"I asked Ai to give me the poison, so that I could be back by your side again. Apparently, as an added bonus she also adjusted it so that the poison would not kill me if it failed to change me and slowed its effects so that I would be the same age as you."

He could not react; the event happening before his eyes was far past his comprehension. He tried to voice out his thoughts, but all that came out was, "w…w…why?"

"I dropped my handkerchief on the floor, as I came back to get it I came from the alley so you wouldn't see me but then I overheard everything."

His thought processes officially stopped at this point. She had heard? Then that meant…

"And I don't care what you think anymore. I want to be by your side. Just accept it; I already can't change my mind."

He had already stopped thinking, but his instincts had at some point caused him to sit up with Ran sitting on his lap. He used his hands to cup her face and leaned in…

"Aren't we both a bit too young for that?"

He stopped himself short to look deep into her eyes as his brain started to function again. Both of them suddenly realised the close proximity they were sharing and blushed. Then Shinichi thought of something.

"Wait, what about everyone else? Your parents, Sonoko, our friends and family, what are you going to do about them?"

"Hmm… I actually didn't even think that far. Something about being in love makes you miss stuff like that, doesn't it?"

He felt his blush intensify as she said that, casting his gaze downwards where he noticed her still sitting on his lap, causing his blush to intensify even further. Ran followed his gaze and felt her face heat up, before both of them simultaneously stood up.

Then, hand in hand, both of them walked towards Professor Agasa's house, intent on sorting out this mess, towards a new life…

But that is another story.


This came out a bit shorter than I thought it would, maybe I should have went deeper into their emotions but I wasn't sure how to do it so it came out like this.

This is the end! Give me your honest views on this one!
