Yeah... You guys can kill me all you want... I'll just keep coming back to life (well, more like Darkberry is gonna bring me back to life with the Tenseiga)... I did warn you about the procrastination though...

Chapter 3
"*Who does that guy think he is, coming in and solving the murder like that.*" Heiji growled when he sat down.
"*You should just be grateful that the murderer was caught. It would have taken a lot longer if that guy didn't know what the poison was.*" Conan pointed out.
"*I still would have solved it...*" Heiji sulked.
"*Sure you would have.*" A voice said.
The two tantei's looked up to see the blonde that solved the murder.
"*HELL YEAH I WOULD HAVE!*" Heiji yelled.
"*I have no doubt that you would have, but I just solved it faster.*" The blonde teased.
"*Why you...*" Heiji growled.
"*What can I say, I'm just one of the best detectives ever.*" Blonde bragged.
'Okay, now he's just trying to annoy Heiji.' Conan thought.
"*WHY DON'T YOU TELL ME THAT AFTER WE HAVE A KENDO MATCH?*" Heiji yelled.
"*Okay.*" The teen said shrugging.
'Why does this guy seem so familiar?' Conan thought. Everything about him looked average, but he could tell from the way held himself he was ready to defend himself at any time.
'Is he expecting someone to attack him?'
While he was pondering this, they made their way to the Kendo club down the street.
"*I'm not gonna take it easy on you!*" Heiji warned.
"*Good, 'cus I wasn't either.*" Blonde answered cockily.
Conan took a seat next to the two teens that came with Blonde.
There was a girl with brown hair and brown eyes. She seemed to have no clue what was going on.
The other was a boy with brown hair and brown eyes. He seemed to have as much of a clue as the girl.
"Mags, do you have any idea what's going on?" The boy whispered to the girl.
"Jasper, if I knew, do you think I would keep it to myself?" She whispered back.
"Maybe..." The boy whose name was apparently Jasper said.
Mags just punched him on the arm.
"I hope this guy knows what he's doing. Remember that Kendo competition we had the school?" Jasper asked.
"Yeah. He almost lost to that kid..." Mags answered.
Conan turned his attention back to the fight.
Heiji was taking the offense with slashes and swipes heading Blonde's way before he had any time to recover from the last one.
Blonde was defending with everything he had, but it seemed like it was barely enough.
Then, after blocking a low swipe from Heiji, Blonde ducked under the next high swipe sent his way, and hit Heiji's leg, making him fall over.
Holding the wooden sword in Heiji's face, Blonde laughed.
"*Looks like I win!*" He declared.
"Did he just win?" Jasper asked Mags.
"I think so..." Mags answered.
Blonde held his hand out to help Heiji up, but Heiji just ignored it and walked towards Conan.
"*C'mon Kudo, we're leaving.*" He growled.
Conan cringed at the use of his real name, he looked behind him hoping that no one had heard, but one look at Blonde's shocked face told him that his hopes were in vain.
SARCASM IS THE BODIES NATURAL DEFENSE AGAINST STUPITY!
Henry was shocked.
It wasn't because Heiji had blatantly refused his help up. No, it was because of the last thing Heiji said before leaving.
"*C'mon Kudo, we're leaving.*"
Heiji couldn't lie to save his life, Henry knew that already. So, that must mean that the little kid really is Kudo. It would make scene, why nobody would be able to find him, no one would look for a kid.
But how did he get that way?
"Hey, Henry. What just happened?" Jasper asked.
"Did you win?" Maggie asked.
"Y-yeah, I won..." Henry trailed off, still thinking about the whole 'Conan is Shinichi' thing.
"Are you okay, you're just staring off into space..." Jasper asked.
"Lets get to the hotel, there's something I need to ask you guys." Henry muttered.
O.o CAN YOU BE ILLEGALLY BLIND? o.O
"So you think that kid sitting next to us is actually a missing teenage detective?" Jasper asked skeptically.
"Yep." Henry answered.
"You do realize that is impossible, right?" Maggie asked.
"Yep."
"So why do you insist that he is this 'Kudo' guy?" Jasper asked confused.
"Just because its impossible doesn't mean it can't happen." Henry answered.
"Dude, you just contradicted yourself." Jasper pointed out.
"Just think about it guys! Ever since I came back the DC impossible things have been happening all around us! If we can find a bug that was supposed to be extinct thousands of years ago, a guy can shrink." Henry explained, leaning back on the couch.
"Is anyone else hungry?" Jasper asked.
"We just came from a restaurant." Maggie exclaimed.
"Yeah, but we were too busy trying to solve a murder case to eat." Jasper retorted.
"Then go eat an orange or something!" Maggie told him.
Jasper got up and grabbed an orange.
"Okay... So anyway, we have a possible case that involves shrinking teenagers. Any ideas?" Henry asked his two friends.
"You're crazy." Jasper stated.
"I'm going to ignore that. What do you think Maggie? Uh... Maggie?" Henry asked.
Maggie was looking at a newspaper, her brow furrowed in concentration. "Henry, what's this article say?"
"Uh... Kaitou Kid to strike tonight. The elusive Phantom Thief has escaped the police many times with the treasure he stole. According to his heist note, he is to strike tonight at the Beika museum, at 9:00. He is going after the 'Hope Diamond' which has been sent to Beika Museum for a temporary exhibit..." Henry read.
"Oh yeah! I remember that!" Maggie exclaimed.
"That's basically it. The rest is just Nakamori keibu talking about how he's finally going to catch 'that damn thief'." Henry said, tossing the newspaper back to Maggie.
"Don't tell me," Jasper started, "We're going to go to the museum and meet this 'Kaitou Kid' guy, and protect the diamond."
"Oh yeah." Henry said, getting a determined look in his eyes.
Oh yeah. You guys can totally kill me now. It's been what... 3 months... I unfortunatly have no excuses other than "I'm a procrastinator". Now, if you'll excuse me... I'm gonna go bash my head into that concrete wall over there...
