"I-!" Kazuha stuttered, starting to explain herself before Heiji marched over, grabbing her by the wrist and yanking her up. The album thumped on the wooden floor and sent up a cloud of dust.
"Come with me." Heiji said, no give in his voice and he dragged her out the back door. His expression was as dangerous as she'd ever seen it. She thought to cry out, for she didn't think Heiji would let Conan see anything upsetting, but she dared not.
He stalked over to a shed and pushed her roughly inside, closing and locking the door with a bang before turning to her angrily. She backed up and raised her arms slightly in self-defense.
"What did you think you were doing, huh? Are you stupid, is that it?" he yelled, pushing closer still to her, his face red with anger.
"You didn't say not to look at the books!" she said in her defense.
"I shouldn't have to! You knew better than that! You don't just go pawing through other people's things!" Heiji moved closer as he raged and Kazuha averted her eyes. "Do you have anything to say for yourself?" Belatedly, her noticed her turned away gaze. "Look at me when I'm talking to you!"
Kazuha's mouth turned down into a frown and her jaw set stubbornly.
Heii growled audibly, before grabbing her chin and forcing her to face him. Her eyes darted away defiantly. With a shout, he pushed her away harshly and she crashed into a wall of shelves. She heard a terrific calamity above her head and saw paint cans falling towards her face. They moved almost in slow motion as they came tumbling down. Time froze and for a moment, she could even read the label on the one heading for her head. Sea-green. It seemed so fitting.
She turned her face away and tried to shield her head, to no avail.
As her head throbbed painfully, she looked up and saw green eyes, anger giving way to something else. But before she could identify it properly, her head throbbed again, painfully and insistent.
And then the world went black.
Wow, its been a long time, hasn't it? Oops? ^_^' I didn't mean for it to happen, I promise, it just did! But, I really do want to see this story finished and its not too far from being over anyways, because if I'm remembering correctly, the time skip comes around in a few more chapters. And after the time skip its all downhill. Actually, this scene right here is the real turning point of the story, but that won't make sense for a while, trust me.
Either way, sorry again about the amount of time its been and sorry about how short this chapter was. It was always supposed to be this way though, so no complaining. Kirby's just been, preoccupied.
KIRBY: *muttering to self* And then there will be winglets! And one will die! No, wait, there's katie and the guilt, stupid conscience...AHA! Alternate universes! I'm a genius! And then they can come to normal-verse and THEN! Oh then the go on a-a journey! I'm brilliant! BRILLIANT!
*sweat drop* Yes, well, let's just say she likes our new project a lot. So much that it painful. Very painful. I need more caffeine.
Nevermind. Just, I don't know, R&R? Because honestly, the more proof I have that someone out there is still reading this, the more I'm likely to attempt to finish it.
