Hello readers! Thank you for those wonderful reviews, they were little highlights in my days, pushing me to keep writing and working on this fanfiction! I do make reference to a Magic file, if you haven't seen them, I really recommend seeing them. They're soo good, I really encourage it. So, on with the story.

Makes reference to Magic File 2

Shinichi had managed to avoid them asking about his genetics, but it had only been a day and half so there was still the potential they'd ask him later. However, that day and half had been of him just being inside, and he was already getting stir crazy. His novels had failed to keep him entertained, nothing descent was on TV, he couldn't work on any cases, wasn't allowed to go outside because then he might run into someone who' recognize Edogawa Conan. He had considered asking the other two if they could go outside for a bit, but he had the feeling that they'd hover, and Kaito would decide a disguise would be in order, one that would involve him being dressed up as a girl. Shinichi shuddered at the thought, he'd already had to deal with his mother dolling him up like a girl the first time he'd been a child. He was not going through that for a second time. In truth, he was just plain rstless, something about the house just felt strange without Kaito and Saguru there. The thought of sneaking out seemed like a kind of betrayal, considering he'd been the one to ask if he could stay at their place while he waited for his Shifter blood to awaken.

Sighing, he stuck his head out of his room, glancing around for either of his companions. Seeing no one he ducked back into his room, grabbing a Conan backpack he stuffed a striped sweater, jeans, and found a blonde wig that looked real that Kaito had left lying around. He felt suspicion niggling the back of his mind at the fact that he'd found the wig, but then he considered that Kaito was a rather messy person. Letting a sigh out, he decided it would be better to be safe and paranoid then caught by the mischievous magician. He knew the two of them should be busy, Kaito with setting up his magic show, and Saguru with his university classes.

Walking out of his room without the back pack first, he confirmed that there weren't any cameras in the house that he wasn't already aware of, realizing that there were no blind spots in the cameras, he sighed and shook his head. Well, he'd just have to move quickly then. He grabbed his bag, skate board stuffed in there with the other stuff. The moment he grabbed his stuff, he was dashing for the door, he had already noticed it was locked, and he didn't have keys. Grinning, he fished out the lock picks that Kaito had left lying around, he knew the theory of it obviously, and he'd practiced ever since Kaito had handcuffed him at a previous heist. It was more difficult than police issued handcuffs, but easy enough for it to only take him a minute. The moment he heard the click he felt a sense of relief and pride swell in his chest. Pushing the door open on silent hinges he glanced around before darting for the stairs instead of the elevator. If they did manage to come home earlier than he expected, they were more likely to take the elevator, but even if they did take the stairs, he had room to move, to escape. Besides, if he was feeling vindictive enough, it even gave him room to send soccer balls flying.

Shinichi had to scramble back around the corner of the stair case the moment he spied Saguru and Kaito walk into the lobby, apparently having a heated discussion about something. Glancing around he spied the bathroom, and then glanced back to Saguru ad Kaito. Sighing through his nose, he watched as a group parents came in with their children. Looking at his watch, he blinked at the time, then grinned. School had finished and he'd blend right in with the group. Sneaking behind his two friends, he quickly merged into the back of the group. Cursing the wind when he felt it push against his back, wafting his scent over to them. It was kind of fascinating to watch the two of them pause and look around, suddenly taking deep breaths as subtly as they could. They glanced around, probably searching for him. For a brief moment he felt his heart stutter when he thought thier eyes connected with his, their eyes were largely dilated much like when an animal found something they liked or when they're happy. Then their eyes kept moving, he wasn't sure if it was them deciding it would be better to give him his breathing room, or they honestly didn't notice it was him.

When a couple of parents broke off from the group with their children, he folllowed them as he deduced their path would cross right in front of the toilets. Ducking into the toilets the moment they passed, he quickly made his way into a stall and tugged on his disguise. When he looked in the mirror there was nothing that resembled Kudo Shinichi or Edogawa Conan. Smirking, he hefted his bag onto his shoulder and made his way outside, jogging right passed his two friends. The moment he was out onto the street, he had his skateboard down and he was away, lazily touching on the ground to keep going. Using the turbo function or anything of the sort would get him immediately recognized.

Shinichi made his way to the nearest park, all he wanted was some fresh air where he could let out his edginess. He wasn't even going to be gone that long, well, that was the plan at least. The moment he arrived at the park he immediately made his way to the wall he used to use in middle school to practice soccer. Now that he thought about, there had been a case last time he'd been here. Pulling a soccer ball out of the back pack he started kicking it against the wall while he thought, letting the physical exercise wash over him. It had been an interesting case, one he kept escaping class to solve. He let a grin cross over his face when he remembered smoking the chemistry lab up so that he could keep working on it. Despite the fact that he'd had to get a criptic clue from his father to figure it out, it had still been a good case. The fact that someone had thought a guitar looked like a dog had been an eye opener into the human mind in regards to preconceptions.

"Ah! Your really good a soccer! Can you show us?" A high female voice that he instantly recognized interrupted his thought process. He missed the next kick, the ball rolling to stop in front of the trio. His eyes widened, and had to stop himself from exclaiming their names. Ayumi was watching him wide imploring eyes, he could still see red rimming them from when she had been crying. Genta and Mitsuhiko were also watching him with that child like curiosity that he had grown to cherish. A knot in his chest that he hadn't even noticed existed loosened at the sight of them. The developing wings unde his skin felt like they shuffled around before settling in a more comfortable position. He recognized the feeling, it was similar to what he had when he was a shifter the first time round, but it only happened when he was around Ran. He had first thought it meant mate, but he was quickly recognising it to be flock; my family.

"Ah sure..." Shinichi answered, mumbling quietly. He couldn't let them recognize that he was Conan, so that mean no detective work, but didn't exclude soccer. He felt a twitch in his lips when he realized they had been there for that case too. When they were in kindergarden, they had been his important little witnesses.

"How about a game?" He asked, careful to alter his speech patterns slightly.

"Sue, but first, introductions! This Ayumi-chan, Genta-kun and I'm Mitsuhiko." Mitsuhiko introduced, taking charge since there was no Conan and no Haibara around. Shinichi nodded, feeling slightly dejected at the fact that he was starting at point one and he hadn't even become Shinichi. He blinked and let out a nervous chuckle when the three of them were staring at him expectantly.

"Ah, Gomen, my name is... Lupin." Shinichi answered, his heart thudding in his chest at the lie.

I know it's short, and the next few chapters will be short too, and I apologise for this, but this means that I'll be giving you chapters sooner. It also gives me room to do mini time skips and all that. I hope you enjoy the chapters, and I look forward to any advice, reviews, and all that. See you next chapter! Love ShySecret-chan~
