"Come on Shinichi! We have to go on that roller coaster!" Yelled Ran.
"Alright, I'm coming."
I don't really mind hanging out with Ran but something is bugging me. You see, people think I am not capable of doing magic. I can use magic, I just don't really see the point of using it 24/7. My magic advanced my senses so I am more alert to danger. I can observe people better than most, it usually takes a glance and I will know their life story. But I can sense darkness, I usually sense something similar with murders, but this is different. This aura is a lot stronger than most.
During the ride, someone thought it would be a good idea to kill someone during the ride. We had her arrested moments later after she confessed, but what worried me most was that the aura was getting stronger. In the carts, there were two men dressed in black that sat near the back. Sensing that these were the ones that were giving of the aura, I followed them. Ran was looking around for me, calling for me, but she would never find me.
I turned a corner and found a deal being made just out of sight from the visitors. I don't really know what happened next, my head was pounding and I had fallen to the floor. I felt a pill being pushed down my throat and water was filling my mouth, a way to make the pill slide down my throat. The men stepped away and the darkness took me.
I find myself waking up a moments later, but something was different. I was glowing. I was glowing blue, other than that I noticed I was in a child's body. I was still confused until I remembered about that legend. The legend where when the chosen one dies, the gem will replace his heart so he can continue living. It was also known to give that person power, so they will be stronger than all the rest, like a God.
A policeman finds his moments later when he is still trying to get the fact that he is dead and was brought back to life by a gem. Why was he the chosen one? Before the Policeman could take him the station, he made a quick getaway and went to his house. By the time he reached his door, he couldn't open it, he was too short. So he did the next best thing.
I knocked on the door at the Professor's next door and waited for him to open the door. Once he did, it took awhile to make him believe that I was actually Shinichi. Before he could say anything the TV (which was on) suddenly changed channels.
"We are now reporting that the Legendary Gem that once caused destruction has split into two. Once it did so, one half lit up a light blue and vanished. Does that mean there are two people in the world who are the chosen? Or was this person only given half so he doesn't take over mankind."
"I wonder who this person is," said Agasa.
Nervously laughing I started with "Well eh... I might know who that person is."
"Who?" Curiosity covered the professors face.
"I'm actually the one that died..."I muttered
"What?! How did you end up dying?!"
"It was that pill I was forced to take, I was meant to die but I didn't"
"You really need to be more careful when advancing criminals Shinichi."
He really does need to be careful, he could've just died tonight.
There was a knock on the door which caught both of our attention. The professor went to answer the door while I got dressed in my old clothes (Thankfully I still had some clothes from when I was little.) but froze when I heard who it was at the door.
"Hey professor, have you seen or heard anything about Shinichi? He just left me and disappeared." He could tell there were anger and worry in her voice.
"I'm sorry I haven't seen him since this morning."
"Is that so, could you tell me when- wait who is that?" She was pointing right at me.
"Eh, that is Shinichi's cousin, he came to visit from America!"
"Aww, he's so cute~ What's your name?"
Damn, what should I say?! I need a name now! Conan... Yes, but Conan what? Ah!
"My names Edogawa Conan!" I need to work on my voice.
"What a nice name Conan-kun, will you be staying here long?"
Well, that's something he can't really answer at the moment since it is already a miracle he is alive. So maybe yes?
"Yeah, My parents are really really busy so they sent me here for the professor to look after me!"
"Will you be able to take of him on your own professor? If you need help I could look after him."
"Well I am quite bust myself, Conan-kun, who would you like to stay with?" Asked the professor.
"Ran-nee-chan!" Wait why did he just say that?! One he doesn't know her name for starters and second, what if he changes!?"
"How do you know my name?" She wondered.
"oh ah... Shinichi told me about you!"
"He did?"
"Yeah, and someone called Sonoko!"
"Ran if you don't mind, could you take him tonight? I don't want to keep the lad up all night when something might explode in the night."
"Of course I will. Do you need anything before you go Conan-kun?"
"Some clothes and a toothbrush!" Gah, I'm already getting tired of speaking like this.
"Alright then, I will be here when you're ready."
I borrowed one of the professors' suitcases and started filling it up with clothes. Hopefully, Mouri-san won't mind me freeloading of him (He probably will knowing him) and Ran won't suspect me of being Shinichi. I also need to know what else I can do now that I have this rock in my chest. I should also keep that a secret from now as well, it would be terrible if people found out that I was the one. There is something strange though, why did it split in two? Could the other half be for my soulmate? Or is it true that is did it for my own safety, that I wouldn't turn to something like that man did hundreds of years ago?
I trudged down the stairs and went out the door with ran, saying goodbye to the professor and praying that things will get better. Maybe he could start researching about them, about the drug that killed him.
Another thought came to him, what if his soulmate finds out that he has that gem in his chest? Will they be afraid of him? It is said that they will stay with you through everything, but will they really when they know about the legend, about what it did to that man.
With his thoughts running wild, he didn't notice that they had already stepped into the home and were kicking off their shoes. He would have to go to the professor to ask to do some research for him. Well that can wait tomorrow, he was tired and as soon as his head hit the pillow, he was out like a light.
