I am so excited to be done with the semester and see that this story, along with Life After a New has new followers and favorites! Thank you so much!

For those who don't know Blacklist the only thing you need to know is that Raymond Reddington is a wanted criminal who gave himself up and will only speak to an agent named, Elizabeth Keen (Lizzy). This story will focus more on the Detective Conan characters so there is not much you need to know. The characters will basically introduce themselves in this fanfiction.

On with the story!

Chapter 6: Daughter Dearest

In Washington D.C., Agent Keen and her partner Agent Ressler had just settled a case with Reddington and were in the office packing up to head home. Getting up to leave Agent Keen's phone rang showing an unknown number.

Must be something from Reddington… she thought

She picked up and answered, "Look if this another case can you at least wait an hour, we are just about to leave and-"

"Hello Agent Keen."

Lizzy was set back by the female voice on the other line. "Who is this?"

Even Ressler was concerned and sat by Lizzy and tried to hear the voice on the other line.

"That's not important. All you need to know is that I must contact Reddington and you are the only one who I know has contact with him."

"You are mistaken, I don't know Reddington. No one in the FBI-"

"No need to hide it from me Agent Keen, I have resources who have told me that he speaks only to you."

"How-"

"Tell Reddington to meet his Daughter Dearest at home."

"I am not going to say anything!" Agent Keen was getting impatient, and wanted to know who this woman was and if she was a threat, could she risk having Reddington go anywhere?"

"You don't need to worry Agent Keen. Reddington will be in no harm. But you must tell him to meet me! Before 24 hours is up, I need him here."

"Where?"

"None of our concern. He is to have NO ONE, no one, not even Dembe with him."
Lizzy hesitated for a while and looked at Ressler who was shaking his head.

"I can't guarantee he will speak to you."

"He will. I have information he wants and if he wants it, he will come alone."

"What if-"

"No, I need his help and his help along, I trust no one but Reddington and my information is valuable to him. Please this is urgent, people's lives are in danger. Speak to him as quickly as possible and tell him to meet me at home." *click*

The mysterious woman hung up and Lizzy was left with contemplation about the matter. She thought for a moment what the woman said about lives being in danger, she was unsure and instead of phoning Reddington, she decided to meet him in person. Being just as stubborn, Ressler refused to let Agent Keen go alone and went with her to speak to Reddington.

According to their last meeting, Reddington would be at an old home he used as a safe house and was getting ready to leave. Upon arrival, Reddington was sitting in a lawn chair in the back taking in the sun.

Seeing Keen and Ressler, he grinned and got up from his seat. "Ah! Lizzy, what do I owe the pleasure? I thought the two of you would be far from me after the last chase I sent you on." He chucked a bit and kept his posture and confidence when he spoke.

"I received a call."

"I hope it wasn't any sort of threat."

"No, a request, from a woman who called herself- Daughter Dearest?"

Hearing that name, Reddington raised his brow and sat down urging them to sit down on the bench. Reddington turned to Lizzy and replied, "What did she say to you?"

"So you do know her?"

"No time to explain Lizzy, time is of the essence, what did she tell you?"

Lizzy as brought back by his urgency and replied, "She said to meet her at home. She needs your help and in exchange, she has information that you would be interested in."

Reddington turned away and thought for a moment and allowed her to continue. "She also said to bring no one, including Dembe; she only trusts you."

"That she does. Very important information? With that, I must go."

He stood up and placed his hat on his head and left.

"WAIT! WHO IS SHE?" Lizzy ran towards Reddington.

Reddington heard the urgency in Lizzy's voiced, turned, and replied, "Now is not the time to explain Lizzy. Everything will come into place and when the time comes, I will tell you. But, for now, I must leave."

"You mean to tell me you are going in alone?"

"Yes, If I need you, I will call. But, if she wishes for me to alone, I will respect that. She is taking much risk to reach out to me as it is." Agent Keen was still not convinced. Ressler turned to her and said, "I am sure there is nothing to worry about. Reddington has eyes and ears everywhere. And I am pretty sure he can handle himself."

Lizzy shook her head, "Something just doesn't seem right."

Not being able to do anything any further, the two went back to their homes until further instructions from Reddington.

Reddington's POV

Arriving at the airport, I told Dembe to stay close and will be called when needed. He knew to keep Dembe and others near but made sure that they knew he must be alone when he spoke to Daughter dearest who he presumed dead. Looking back, Reddington looks down by the plane's door says farewell Dembe and his other men.

"And where will you be going, Raymond?" Dembe asked

He chuckled and replied, "Well, while you're enjoying London, I'm headed to Japan."

Well...there is the introduction to Reddington! This is a bit short but the next one will be longer I promise!

HATE, LOVE? REVIEW! (please?)
