Hi! Just as I promised, here is the next chapter!
IMPORTANT: Okay, I still need a good murder story! This is very important! This is probably the last chapter before the murder! BUT, if I don't have a good murder story, the chapter will be seriously delayed! I will credit whoever came up with the murder, and a chapter dedication. And maybe, MAYBE I will write something of your choice! Isn't that a tempting prize! It shows how desperate I am! So, pm or email me with a murder and what you might want written! Thanks!
Okay, something that came to my attention recently is the pairings. This is not, I repeat, NOT a Shiho/Shinichi pairing! I'm not focusing on pairings, but if I was, this would be a RAN/SHINICHI story! Sorry for any confusion!
Dedication: This chapter a double dedication- first to Mimi, my twin. Happy B-day to us, sis.
Second, to our dear cousin J-chan. Even though it's past, Happy B-day, girl.
"W-what?" Haibara stuttered, surprised at the offer.
Shinichi gave an exasperated sigh. "You know what I said! Come to school with me! You won't be able to work on an antidote to fix this until all the new equipment is here, and your lab is set up, right? Well, during that time, you can come to school with me and be with people our own age and learn stuff we don't know yet!"
Haibara shook her head. "No, I can't. Sorry, Kudo-ah! Sorry, Fuyu-kun. I won't be attending school with you."
Shinichi threw her hands into the air in annoyance. "Why ever not?"
"Because," the young woman stated simply, "I have things to do."
Shinichi put her hands on her hips, leaning forward slightly. "Like what things? Wait-I don't even need to know, so don't tell me. But, whatever it is, can wait. We'll be seniors in highschool, and then graduate!(1) You only do that ONCE in your life, Haibara-cha-uh-san!"
"Well, true, but-"
"No buts! Besides, did you even get to go to highschool when you were still with the Organization? Or did they keep you on a tight leash?" Shinichi questioned.
When Haibara didn't answer, he mentally decided he shouldn't raise the topic again. "My point exactly! You didn't go to school! Don't you want to at least see what it's like? Highschool is supposed to be one of the most fun experiences in your life!"
"Well, I've always been curious as to what it's like, but-" she didn't get to finish before Shinichi interrupted again.
"What did I say? No buts! Besides, you can teach me how to be a girl, since I don't know how, and I'll teach you what to and not to do at highschool. Deal?" Shinichi stuck out her right hand, extending it towards Haibara. She hesitated for a few minutes before grabbing the slender hand in front of her. They shook hands as Haibara whispered, "Deal."
"I suggest we head to bed, it is late. But, I need a blood sample first." Haibara told her after they had let go of the other's hand.
Shinichi giggled. "I think Agasa-hakase was way ahead of you." Shinichi pointed in the direction of the sofa.
Haibara looked in that direction and giggled softly. The professor was sitting down on the couch, his head reclined back on the edge of the sofa. He was snoring softly, insinuating that he had gotten bored of their conversation and fell asleep.
"Class, we have two new students today, so I expect you to behave. Come on in you two." the teacher said. As soon as she was done talking, the door opened and in walked two girls wearing the Teitan High School uniform.
The first girl had shoulder length, dark brown hair that swayed as she walked. Her deep blue eyes seemed to say "I'm happy." She had a big grin on her face. The second girl had short hair and pretty blue eyes which looked slightly nervous. She wore a small smile, though not as genuine as the first girl's smile.
"May I introduce Fuyu Ishikawa" the first girl smiled bigger and waved her fingers, "and Mika Ishikawa." The second girl raised her hand and gave a small wave, her smile slightly more genuine.
It had been hard to decide on a name for Haibara, but it had been accomplished. Having no ideas of their own, they had turned to a name generator. You answered some questions, and it told you the name that would best suit you. When the name 'Mika' had flashed on the computer screen, they knew it was the one.
The last name was a bit harder, especially finding two separate names that fit each girl. But, when the situation was reassessed, they came to the conclusion that the girls should go in as sisters. I mean, what would the odds be if two UNRELATED transfer students came in on the same day? Very unlikely, and very suspicious. The last name was, again, gotten from a name generator that they found online, but it fit.
"Now, are there any questions for our new students before we start class?" the teacher, Tamari-sensei, asked her class as the two new girls still stood in front.
"Are they sisters? Cause if they are, then they'd have to be twins."
"Yes, we are sisters, but-" Fuyu began
"If they're twins, why don't they look alike?"
"That's a very good question, we actually-" Fuyu tried again.
"Do either of you have boyfriends? Cause if you don't, I'd-"
"-be more than willing to let you be my girlfriend. Both of you can."
"Um, Fuyu, a little help-" Mika requested.
"Settle down, class. One at a time okay?" Tamari-sensei called, trying to bring back some semblance of order back to her classroom.
"Are you going to take up his offer? Cause if you aren't, I'd-"
"No, we're not, but-" Fuyu tried to say.
"Wait, which one is Mika? I'm so confused..."
"Are you going to let your boyfriend ask out that new girl, Ayumi-chan, or-"
"Class, please, settle down!" Tamari-sensei said once again. But it was to late. The whole class was talking, and not everything said was a question for the new girls.
Tamari-sensei curled a piece of her waist-length black hair around her finger as she contemplated what to do. She was not one to take charge, but she knew someone who was. Or rather, some student. Settling on a plan of action, she whispered to a girl halfway across the room, "Sonoko-chan, if you would please do the honors..."
Said girl nodded before shouting, "QUIET!"at the top of her lungs. After hearing the eardrum-splitting scream of Lungs-Of-Steel-Suzuki, many of the students quieted down, knowing that if they didn't, they would suffer the wrath of Karate-Girl-Mouri.
"Now, one at a time, class, one at a time! And the next person to speak out of turn will get an after school detention that will occur on Friday. Alright? Mika-chan, Fuyu-chan, you can call on whoever you like." Tamari-sensei smiled sweetly at the two girls.
Mika called on the first person she saw. His question was if they had boyfriends. Her response was, "No, but we're not interested in a relationship now, so we're not interested."
The next question was if they were twins, or just sisters. "We're sisters, but not twins. And before you even ask, I'm not going to tell you how we can be sisters, the same age, and NOT be twins." Fuyu answered the girl.
"Any other questions before we begin? No? Well, alright. Fuyu-chan, your seat is behind Ran-chan. Will you raise your hand, Ran-chan? Thank you. Mika-chan, your seat is in front of Sonoko-chan. Sonoko-chan is right next to Ran-chan. There you go!"
The two girls walked over to their seats, sitting down quickly as the teacher said, "Now, open your books to page 27..."
RING RING
That bell signaled the end of morning classes, and that it was time for lunch. The halls could be filled with the sound of hundreds of students, all rushing to get outside to enjoy the warm air before it disappeared in a month or so. Even the teachers rushed out.
The only students not joining the stampede were the new girls, Mika and Fuyu Ishikawa. "So, Kudo-kun, is it normal for a classroom to clear this fast at lunch?" Mika asked wonderingly.
"Well, I'm not sure if it's ALL classrooms, but it's normal for ours. I don't know about you, but I do NOT want to try and find a place to eat outside there. I'm gonna eat in the classroom." she said, bringing out her lunch.
"I'm with you. Besides, all those boys kept trying to take us out on a date, or get us to be their girlfriends. It was like being constantly harassed." Mika went on, pulling out her lunch as well.
"Ugh! That was the worst part! When someone first asked that, I almost asked if they were interested in guys. Then I remembered, I'm supposedly a girl. But it felt so disgusting to be flirted with by a guy! I was almost sick!" Fuyu exclaimed, biting into her sandwich.
Mika watched as Fuyu shoved the sandwich into her mouth. "Girl lesson number one: girls don't shove that much food into their mouth at once."
Before Fuyu could come up with a good comeback, the classroom door opened, revealing two of their classmates. Ran and Sonoko walked into the room, sitting down near Fuyu and Mika.
"So, this is where you're eating. We looked for you outside, to eat with you, but we didn't see you. So, we figured you were in the classroom. Who was right, Ran?" Sonoko said, looking at Ran with a superior look on her face.
Ran sighed. "You were, Sonoko. Well, in case you didn't know, I'm Ran Mouri. It's nice to meet you." she said cheerfully.
"And I'm Sonoko Suzuki, the most fashionable girl at Teitan High, Heiress to a lot of money, and the girl who makes sure Ran has a love life. Nice to meet you, Fuyu-chan and Mika-chan!" she said excitedly.
"SONOKO! You are NOT in charge of my love life! And that was disrespectful! They may not want to be addressed so informally. I apologize for her rudeness." Ran said first to Sonoko, then to the new girls.
"Um, it's fine, Mouri-san. We really don't mind being addressed that way, do we Fuyu?" Mika said, finishing her lunch.
"No, we don't. I mean, it's not like you can call us by our last names anyway." Fuyu said.
The four girls were silent before Mika decided to embarrass Fuyu. "So, Suzuki-san, what did you mean about making sure Mouri-san had a love life?" Mika smirked evilly as Ran and Fuyu blushed slightly.
"Ugh, don't get me started. She has this boyfriend, Shinichi Kudo. They've been friends for practically their entire lives. They're totally in love, even though they won't admit it. But he's the thing: he's been gone for almost, what, two years? She only gets phone calls from him. It's so romantic! A long-distance relationship!"
Ran turned to Sonoko, blushing. "I do not love him! And he does not love me!" she cried, highly embarrassed.
"Well, thanks for eating with us, girls, but lunch is going to end soon. We really should get going, Mika and I need to find the rest of our classes." Fuyu said, throwing away her trash.
"Don't worry! We'll help you find your classes! After all, what are friends for? Ran, you help Fuyu-chan, I'll take care of Mika-chan." Sonoko exclaimed loudly before grabbing a protesting Mika by the hand and dragging her out of the room.
"Well, come on Fuyu-chan. What class do you have next?"
The two remaining girls walked from the room, one trying very hard to pretend she hadn't met the other girl before, let alone known her their entire lives! The second girl was completely oblivious to the first girl's problems.
