"Are you Okay Conan-kun?" Ayumi asked her boyfriend(to her at least).
Conan coughed into his hand. He didn't feel so good, but he didn't want Ayumi to worry.
"It's alright, Ayumi-chan." He stared down at his kids meal. He usually got them to avoid suspision. But he had a feeling that he wouldn't be able to keep it down. He just wanted to go home.
Home. It was strange how he had come to think of the Mouri's as home. Probably because Ran was there.
Another round of coughing from Conan made Ayumi's face contort in worry. She felt his forehead. It was hot to the touch. No doubt about it, Conan was sick. After telling Genta and Mitsuhiko to go get help, she held Conan's hand as he laid on the park bench.
Scene Change
Kogoro Mouri sat in front of the t.v., drinking. Oh sure, being a self-employed private detective sounded great. But it meant that he had no control over the stability of his job. One week he would be flooded with cases ranging from infidelity to missing persons to murder. But other weeks he wouldn't get one case. And this had been one of those weeks.
There was a knock at the door, and he spit out his beer in suprise. Finally, a case!
"Mouri detective agency. How may I help you?." Kogoro said in his most professional voice as he opened the door.
He blinked and looked around. There was nobody there.
He then looked down to see two of Conan's friends. His mood quickly deflated.
Genta grabbed him by the hand. "Hurry, Conan is.."
"What's he done now?"
"Nothing!" Mitsuhiko shook her head. "He's sick! He needs to go to a hospital!"
Kogoro wasn't impressed. "Look, I'm sure it's nothing. When he gets here I"ll have Ran check on him, and then..."
"No!" both boys shouted as Genta once again tried to drag him out the door. "Conan is dying!"
He looked at the boysseriously. They seemed to be really afraid for their friend.
"Alright, I'll go take a look."
Scene Change
Ayumi sat with Conan, his head in her lap. She wanted to cry, but wouldn't let her self. She had to stay calm. Conan needed her now.
Conan was getting worse. He coughed up yellow phelegm and shivered uncontrolably. And it had another effect. Conan had coughed so much, so hard, that he had torn some of the capilaries in his eyes. It didn't impare his vision, but it did fill the membranes of his eyes with blood, making them crimson.
"Ran?" Conan asked.
"No, I'm Ayumi. Remember?"
"Ran, please don't leave me." he said delerious.
"I won't leave you." Ayumi replied, stroking his hair. She didn't know why Conan thought she was Ran. But if it made him feel better, she would let him.
Genta and Mitsuhiko appeared, with Kogoro in tow. They took one look at Conan's red eyes and knew this was serious.
Kogoro called the hospital on his cell phone while the detective boys rallied around their fallen member.
"Come on Conan." Genta said.
"You can make it." Mitsuhiko told him.
"Please don't die!" Ayumi started to cry, unable to hold it any longer.
An ambulence arrived minutes later, and it's crew laid him on a stretcher. They cut open his shirt with surgical scissors before attatching sensors to his chest.
As they drove away, Kogoro told the three children to come with him. They would follow the ambulence in the taxi they had taken here. He opened his phone and pressed the speed-dial.
Scene Change
Ran sighed to herself. While she enjoyed shopping as much as the next girl, Sonoko was completely obsessed. There couldn't be a stitch of womens clothing in the store that her friend hadn't tried on today.
He cell phone rang, and she pressed the bitton and held it to her ear. "Hello?"
Sonoko walked out of the stall with her arm full of clothes she had decided she didn't want to find Ran on her phone. She was about to grab more clothes when she heard Ran gasp.
"Sonoko," Ran said. "I have to go. Conan-kun is in the hospital."
To be continued.
The red eye thing happened to me once. True story. What I mean is the red eyes from too much coughing happened. The rest is completely made up.
