Turf War

Chapter 1: A Warning

It was a lazy summer day at the Moore Detective Agency, Richard was swiveling left and right out of boredom in his computer chair. Rachel was punching the air in front her in her karate stance. While Conan was flipping through the channels moodily until giving up and turning the t.v. off. Conan hoped that either the rain would stop or Dr. Agasta would call. A while later the phone started ringing lifting his sprits at the possibility of Dr. Agasta having something for him to do. Rachel who was the only one to seem to have the energy to answer it walked over ringing phone.

"Hello?" she said in a bored tone," Do you want to talk to my dad? O.K. "

She looked over to Richard who was sleeping with his arms sprawled out over his desk covered with empty beer cans. She sighed not wanting to wake him up and returned to the phone.

"Uhh.. Can it wait?" Rachel asked sighing again," Hey Dad!...HEY DAD!"

Richard bolted awake out of both surprise and anger. Rachel walked over and handed him the phone.

"Dad, it's Inspecter Meguire," she said handing Richard the phone.

I wonder what that's all about. Hey wait I put a bugged phone and can listen via a receiver in my glasses, Jimmy thought.

Conan twisted a small portion of the end of the ear brace to turn on the bug.

"Richard, listen to me our criminologists and undercover cops are all telling us the same thing: all of the major crime organizations in Japan are getting closer and closer to war. The major players are the Yakuzas, Triads, Japanese Mafia and the Black Organization," The last one on the list made Conan gasp but, he listened further," This confrontation will most likely engulf all of Japan bringing it into a long and bloody civil war."

It did not matter anymore weather the Black Organization found out who he was; he had to tell her now. He could possibly bring them to a safe place while the fighting was going on. Conan walked over to Rachel and tugged on her skirt while monitoring the conversation between Meguire and Richard.

"Rachel, I need to talk to you..privately," Conan said in the most serious voice she ever heard.

"Sure, Conan," Rachel said now believing that this was important and having flashbacks to when she first met him and that train trip they had to a wedding.

He led her to a neighboring room and stared at her seriously. He sat down in a chair and asked her to sit down as well.

Conan sighed," Rachel, what ever I tell you will you promise to get mad? Because the sooner we leave the sooner we get to safety."

Rachel didn't know what to expect," I promise but, what do you mean?"

Conan lowered his head," My real name is…," he sighed," it's Jimmy Kudo," Conan whispered looking Rachel into her blue eyes.

"It's okay Jimmy. Somehow I always suspected," she said starting to walk over to Jimmy to comfort him," What did you mean by all that stuff you said about leaving?"

But before he could answer automatic gun fire broke out shattering the window right next to them. As Rachel took cover a bullet caught her in the arm splattering blood across the wall. Seeing this Jimmy, felt as if he'd taken a heavy blow to his stomach. At this point he wasn't thinking at all; he was reacting.

Rachel, NO!

SG: That's the end of chapter one! I hoped you liked it; I know Rachel didn't.

Rachel: Hmph (looks the other way)

SG: This is my own unique idea so, please ask me first before making a fanfic like this. Oh, before I forget please review!
