"See?! I told you guys!" Kaito exclaimed. "Why didn't any of you believe me when I told you?"
"Because it seemed so crazy that Akako-san would be a witch!" Keiko yelled. "Akako-san, are you sure that you aren't just faking it out trying to get out of telling us your secrets?!"
"I am not lying." Akako said calmly. "Ask me anything and I will tell you the answer. You can ask me about the past, when you did something with no one around and I will be able to tell you exactly what you did. Ask me any equation and I will be able to answer it. Ask me about the future and I can tell you everything from who you will marry to how you will die."
"Really" Akemi said with hints disbelief in her voice. "Then let the questions begin. When will the nurse come in, and for what reason?"
"She will come at five twenty-three and the main reason is to see if you took your medicine."
"What is the number I am thinking of?"
"What kind of dumb question is that? I'm a witch. Not a kindergarten mind reader."
"Are you saying that you can't answer it?"
"No... It's pi, but you can't get very far... All you can think of is three point one four one five..."
"What did I eat for dinner last night?"
"Curry but you added extra carrots because you felt like you eyes were getting worse because you couldn't see the second question on the board in the third period. The question was if f(x)=the cubed root of x, and x was 8, what if f(x)?"
"You know," Akemi said. "I think she really is a witch..."
"What kind of magic do you use?" Keiko asked. "White or black?"
"I don't use either of those." Akako replied. "I use red magic. Much darker than what you know as black magic. But it is of no concern. I have told you my secret. And I will help KID so we should probably get the dark-skinned Osaka detective soon and tell him of this plan."
"You're right." Shinichi said. "But first let me call Ran otherwise she'll kill me with her karate..."
"Go ahead and call her." Akemi said. "And why don't you all step out so I can go get ready?"
"Of course." Akako replied. She paused in the doorway. "5,4,3,2,1."
A nurse with long blond, almost white hair, entered the room.
"Fujioka-san, did you take your medication?"
Everybody turned to look at Akako who shrugged.
"Yes I did" Akemi replied.
"Then you are free to get dressed and leave. Just remember to sign out on the paperwork at the front-desk before you leave." The nurse said in a cheerful voice. "But be careful." She added is a lower voice. "Snake is not someone easily defeated. I should know. It took both Gin & Vodka along with me to try and stop him when he killed the first KID, and we obviously didn't succeed in that aspect... Well, good luck!" The last part was said in a sing-song voice as the nurse walked out the door.
"Wait!" Akemi barely managed to say before the nurse left. "Who are you, how do you know Snake, and how do you know what we are up to?! I was sure that nobody was listening in on us!"
"A secret makes a woman, women."
