BRRRIIIINNNGGGG! The bell rang and soon the halls echoed with joy and laughter of little children. Another day of school has past and the young ones couldn't wait to get home to play video games, hang out with friends, and of course, record everything on a video camera. As the group of four exited the school building, Mitch still continued to play with the shiny silver gadget, leaving his friends really concerned.
"Mitch, don't you think you're spending too much time with that video camera?" Amy asked with a worried look on her face.
"Come on. Finally I have something I really like to do," he replied.
A cheerful little bird sang perched on a windowsill and with much interest, Mitch flipped the camera's lens in the direction of it. It was a pretty little bird with shimmering white and gray feathers. It sang as though it was a singer with an audience of a million people.
"But if you spend all your time on that video camera, you won't have any time for us," Amy whined.
"I have lot's of time to spend with you guys. I'm talking to you now ain't I?"
"Yes, but that's not the same. Were really worried about you, Mitch," the little girl continued, "Isn't that right Conan?"
Conan, however, didn't even lift an eyebrow to his friend's question. His attention was focused on the evening sky and a huge smile resting upon his face. He was daydreaming. His thoughts were on a special event that was going to take place after he got to an old friend's house.
"Uhh… Conan? Conan? Hello?… CONAN!?" Amy called.
The shout awakened Conan from his little world and he looked around, confused.
"Huh? Wha?"
"Were you listening?"
"Err… Not really. Was there something you wanted to ask me?"
Amy sighed, "Never mind."
The little girl's attention was soon directed to her other friend, George.
"What do you think George? Arn't you worried about Mitch?" she questioned him.
"Huh?"
The big seven-year-old boy seemed to be as connected to the world as Conan. Amy put on a frown with a concerned tone to back it up. "Am I the only one who knows what is going on?"
"Don't worry about it, Amy. I'm happy the way I am with my camera," Mitch reassured her.
"Yeah, but your obsession with it scares me."
The bird in the window continued to chirp happily despite the group's feelings. As Mitch continued to watch it with his camera, a new guest came in to view. She was black and furry, with a tip of white on her nose.
"Reorrr!!!!"
The feline tackled the poor little bird and dug her claws into its feathers. After the bird quit struggling, the cat gingerly picked it up in its mouth and carried it back into the house that it had pounced from. Mitch slowly lowered the video camera down from his eye, in shock. Amy unfortunately saw the tragedy as well and her hand came up to cover her mouth.
"That was uncalled for…"the tall boy stated while staring morosely at the now deserted perch. He slowly started putting his camera away in its case. He was not in the mood for any more filming of this day's events.
"Oh, that poor birdy," Amy cried.
"I'll see you guys tomorrow," Mitch mumbled as he waved his friends good bye. He trudged down the sidewalk but cast one last sideways glance. Conan seemed to be the only one waving back, however. Amy was still traumatized by the tragic death of the bird she well knew (for 40 seconds) and George?.... Let's say his little friend owes him money.
As Mitch walked down an alley on his way home, he saw a group of girls chatting by a card shop. Mitch again felt the twitching of his obsession and it took control. His momentary bout of sadness was forgotten as he quickly decided to again take out his video camera. He ran over to the nearest box he could hide behind while covertly zooming in on the scene. He peered around the side of it to watch the girls.
Soon after Mitch had gotten his camera, spying on various girls became a bad habit of his. It wasn't exactly his fault, though…of course…These girls always had juicy gossip or something silly to say. Mitch enjoyed being the center of attention of the guys when he was making them roll with laughter over some of the girl's secrets which he exposed for entertainment and delight. This time however, Mitch heard too much.
"Sara, are you crazy? An adult can't turn into a kid," a brown haired girl with pigtails retorted.
"But, what if he was fed some pill that shrunk him?" asked Sara.
"Nah, that can't happen."
Another girl in the conversation decided to make her comment like the others. She had hair just as black as Sara but she wore it in a tight ponytail.
"I think it can."
The brown-haired girl gasped and yelled, "Natalie!"
"What?"
Mitch noticed a smirk on Sara's face. She had something to prove them wrong or at least convince them.
"If you don't believe me…" Sara said pulling out a newspaper and a photo, "… look at this!"
She whipped out the newspaper and the photo in front of the girls. The newspaper held the portrait of Jimmy and the photo held a small picture of Conan. Natalie gasped but her brown haired friend grew red.
"So? Maybe they're relatives," she snapped.
"But don't you think he's strange. He never listens in class and yet he always gets straight A's," stated Sara.
"Yeah, and he reads those big books with a lot of pages," said Natalie.
"Well… Maybe that's because he's a geek… and a bookworm…"
"Hey, didn't he show up at our school around the time that detective disappeared?" Sara asked now just getting the idea into her head.
"Okay, maybe you are right! Conan is Jimmy!" their red faced friend yelled.
Mitch jumped in shock that they were talking about one of his closest friends. Not thinking he accidentally let out a shocked, "What!?"
The group jumped around to have their eyes meet the spy. The girls glared at him with rage.
"Were you spying on us?" snarled Sara.
"N-no. I was just…"
"Look! He has a video camera," gasped Natalie.
The girls' mouths dropped open in dismay.
"WHAT!? You were video taping us!?" the brown haired girl shouted.
"Nnn…nooo!…I…I…wasn't!" Mitch was fudging a bit and the girls were still suspicious. He could tell by their narrowed eyes and the way they started purposely toward him that they were probably going to do him or his video camera some serious bodily injury. He had to think fast and distract them. The best defense is a good offence. Mitch raised his voice aggressively and started striding toward the girls. "I heard you all yapping and gossiping about Conan and I was curious, that's all. Besides, why are you making jokes about Conan anyway?"
"They're not jokes. They're true! What does it matter to you? Do you even know him?" Sara questioned raising an eyebrow.
"I do. He is a FRIEND of mine and I say that he is not Jimmy Kudo!"
"Is that so?"
As the tension heated up between Mitch and Sara, the other girls started backing away. They knew Sara quite well and when she got angry, she preferred one on one. They figured Sara had a plan for this boy, probably a nasty one.
Sara frowned in concentration as she studied Mitch for a few seconds before she continued…"OK, I got it….Why don't YOU prove it!?… I know, let's make a bet… If you can prove Conan isn't Jimmy, then I'll give you my entire deck of Yaiba cards," With Sara's betting, she finishes by flipping out a hand of cards with images of characters and items from the show.
Mitch held his breath in awe. Some of the cards that reflected in the sunlight were extremely rare and hard to get.
"However," the girl continued, "If I can prove Conan IS Jimmy then you have to give me… your new video camera."
Sara lashed out her finger like a whip to point straight at the video camera. Mitch looked at the camera like a mother to an only child. That camera was his life. If he lost, he would lose his camera forever. Sara wasn't the forgiving sort…On the other hand, some of those cards she held up to him were impossible to get any other way. Also to be considered was that, if he didn't prove this rumor wrong, then his dear friend Conan would probably be continually tormented and victimized by these gossipy girls and their endless tall tales. He swallowed hard, not liking anything about this situation at all.
"So? Is it a deal?" Sara asked with a smirk upon her face.
The boy took his time to think over, again, but he soon replied with, "I-It's a deal."
