A/n: Well here's chapter two. I'll put chapter three up once I've finished writing it. or I get enough reviews.... Which ever comes first. And no Kara or Celeste, you can't make multiple reviews to get the next chapter. Tough luck. Oh, I'm currently looking for a beta, since some one pointed out that I would be better off with one..... . ..... Read and review please. Though I ask if you are going to flame me, do it constructively. Thanks.
As promised here is the summery.
Summery: Kaito Kuroba has gone missing and it seems the Kaito KID has as well. This leaves Kiseki heart broken and alone with only her cousin Ran to comfort her. Meanwhile it's a race between the Phantom Thief Kiseki and the Black Organization to find the Pandora Jewel. So what do Conan and Ran have to do with all of this?
Disclaimer: I do not own the characters of Detective Conan, nor do I own the song the title is taken from. I do, however, own Kiseki Mourisato and all aspects of her and the plot.

Chapter two
Dr. Hiroshi Agasa looked up from his lab table as the door to one of the guest rooms opened up. He smiled as a small boy, no older then seven, walked out into the light, the highschool uniform he wore slowly falling of his body. His smile grew wider as the boy's blue eyes looked up at him curiously, then widened in recognition. He knew this man from Kiseki, he had been her tutor last year when she had began failing classes because of her illness.
"Ah you must be Kaito Kuroba. Glad to see you've awaken," came the slightly accented voice of Dr. Agasa.
Kaito nodded and looked around the strange room. Kiseki had been able to work in a cluttered room like this? He shook his head, she had always been able to make the best out of any situation. Kaito looked back at Dr. Agasa, his mouth opened to speak. But before he got the chance to utter one word, a new voice broke the silence.
"Dr. Agasa! Did you hear about the disappearance?!! I think it's another case of APTX!!"
Suddenly, a boy about seven years old ran into the work room, his blue eyes wide and his glasses slipping off of his face. He wore the primary school uniform and a bright red bowtie. There was something awfully familiar about this kid....
"Ah! Conan! I was wondering when you were going to show up."
Conan... Conan... "Conan Edogawa?"
Conan nodded, blinking as he did so. It was so odd to hear Kaito's voice smiliar to his own. "Yea. I'm Conan Edogawa. But how do you know me?" Okay.. so he was playing the innocent act even though he didn't need to. He just wanted to see how good Kaito was at figuring things out.
Kaito huffed and walked over to a couch to sit. He wasn't in the mood for jokes or games. Especially not from Shinichi Kudo. Managing to climb up to the cushions, her glared down at Conan. "You wanna play that way huh, Shinichi? Fine then," Kaito smirked. "Two can play that game."
"Hey dad, I'm going to go by Dr. Agasa's house and pick up Conan!" Ran called as she slipped on her tennis shoes.
"Fine fine, but bring back some beer will ya? I'm all out."
If Kiseki hadn't have been so downhearted she would have rolled her eyes at her uncle's statement. It was surprising that he could get any detective work done with how much he drank. In her eyes, he was borderlined alcoholic. Of course that didn't mean she loved him any less, he was just a hopeless drunkard.
With a soft sigh Kiseki slipped on her shoes and joined her cousin at the door. She was going to go with Ran to pick up Conan and then the three of them were going to go out for ice cream. Ran figured it might cheer up the crestfallen girl, though she wasn't sure how much it would work.
"You'll have to give me a little bit more cash then dad. You only gave me enough for the ice cream."
Shuffling and a deep sigh could be heard as Kogoro got up from the couch and handed his daughter more cash. 'All this for some lousy beer,' Kogoro huffed, none to pleased about having to give out any more cash. "There ya go, just be back in time to make dinner will ya? I'm starving as it is."
Sweat dropping, both girls made a promise to be home in time to cook dinner for the starving detective. With a shake of their heads, the girls walked out of the apartment and into the streets.
"Why do I have to play as your brother and lived with Kogoro?" Kaito whined as he walked out dressed in a smiliar primary school uniform as Conan, minus the tacky red bow.
"Well I suppose we could always have you stay with Sonoko," Conan replied, knowing full well Kaito wouldn't go for that. That statement was met with a gagging noise from the now chibified Kaito. Conan hid a laugh, "Or we could always ask your mom."
Kaito nearlly fell over right then and there, "My mom?!" Sending him to live with his mom while the effects of the Apotoxin were in effect was like sentencing him to death. Not only would the Black Organization come after his mom if they found out he was still alive, but there was something worse he'd have to live through. Having to grow up once more as a little dress up doll for his mom. That thought in itself was bad enough, but to make it worse his mom would take pictures! Lots and lots of pictures!!
"Oh no! I am not going to live with my mom like this! No way no how!!" Kaito stomped his foot to prove how much he did not want to go there.
"Fine then. It's settled," Conan grinned. "You'll come live with me, Kogoro and Ran."
"Conan has a brother? Really? Why didn't his parents leave him with Conan?" Ran asked, her surprise at the new turn of events eveident in her voice.
"He had been staying with his grandmother for some time but she just recently passed away. I tried to get a hold of his parents to let them know, but I received no answer. I was hoping the boy could stay with you," Dr. Agasa explained.
"Of course! He can share a room with Conan. I'm sure my father won't mind."
"If he's too drunk to notice that is," Kiseki interjected.
Ran sweatdropped, a nervous laugh escaping her. Quickly she looked around the room, wondering where Conan and his brother might be. Seeing no sign of them she turned to Dr. Agasa, a questioning look on her face. "Where are the boys now, Dr. Agasa?"
He only smiled and went back to working on what ever it had been before the girls had arrived. This of course had Ran and Kiseki wondering where the boys could be in the first place. That question was pushed aside as Conan walked out leading, or rather dragging, a young boy who looked almost identical to him. They could only assume that this was Conan's brother.
"Hi Ran!" Conan cried happily.
"Hey Conan. Who's your buddy there?" she asked, kneeling down to Kaito's new height.
Kaito didn't reply, his attentioned solely focused on one person and one person only. He hadn't expected Kiseki to be with Ran and it was heartbreaking to watch her. Her stance, the lost look in her eyes... it was almost as if she really had to reason to be living besides Ran. And it was all his fault.... "Ow!" Kaito whined as he recieved a sharp elbow to his side. "What was that for Conan?"
"Ran asked you a question. I would have answered for you but it'd be better if you answered. Can't be shy the rest of your life, can you?" Conan smirked, his voice a bit too sugary for Kaito's liking.
"I guess not... What was the question Miss. Ran?"
Ran smiled, he was so polite! Just like Conan! "You don't have to call me Miss. Just call me Ran." Conan turned and made a gagging noise, all the sweetness between them was driving him insane. "And all I wanted to know was what your name was."
"Oh," Kaito replied sheepishly. "My name is..."
