Author's Note: I've gotten back into Case Closed recently. Though when I say that I really just mean I started rewatching it again for the nth time. I recently had this idea and I thought why not. Though I had to stew on it for a time because mom had the laptop for a week and a half. She went to visit grandma, her mom, over in Utah. As you know I tend to think up what if type stories...so here is going to be a what if involving the sixth Case Closed/Detective Conan movie. Also I will be using english names so long as one exists for that character. If not then they get their japanese name through no fault of mine.

Chapter 1:
The Sherlock of the Modern Age Reappears

"So the answer to whoever murdered him is somewhere within the game, Cocoon. It seems I must enter into the game after all," Conan Edogawa thought briefly as he made his way to the line of kids. The line was long, but the stewardesses made sure to move the kids along quickly.

"Conan! See you wanted to play this game too!" Amy laughed as he joined them in the line. He shrugged and laughed it off deciding not to tell them the real reason. Vi looked at him in curiosity. Knowing him too well to think there isn't another reason he is there.

"Not like it matters. You're terrible at games Conan," Mitch grinned causing George to laugh. Soon they were strapped into the Cocoon and ready to go.

"I am Noah's Ark and I have taken over the game Cocoon. This is no longer a game, but a test. Japan's class system is broken. Those who are the children of corrupt doctors grow up to be corrupt doctors themselves. If all the players die within the game then I will send an electric pulse through your brains and kill you. It will be a soft reset of Japan's government, however if even just one of the players survive till the end then no one will die."

Conan was in shock, but he was coherent enough to hear Vi confirm what he already knew. That Noah's Ark really could kill them in the way it described. "I'm not here just to solve the mystery of who killed Kashimura anymore, but also to save all our own lives," he realized.

Noah's Ark explained the different scenario's and the children chose. Conan, the Jr. Detective League, Rachel, and the three rich kids stood in front of the 19th century London scenario. Before they could go through Noah's Ark spoke up once more, "Hold on. There is something . . . off about two of you." Vi and Conan stiffened as suddenly they were both stuck by electricity.

"Conan! Vi!" Rachel and the Jr. Detective League called out as the other kids at entrance each of the other scenario's were forced into their choices.

Conan's chest felt like it was going to implode. Gripping his chest, "no! Not now. Not here." Vi, though unused to it, recognized what was happening thanks to Conan's descriptions. His words confirming it. Her own eyes wide in pain as her body shuddered. "I . . . I have no where to hide. Rachel. Don't hate me after this . . ." He gripped his chest tighter as it beat wildly in his chest.

Her eyes wide, "why would I hate you Conan!?" She pulled his head into her lap to try to relax him. "You're going to be okay." She looked upwards and yells, "what did you do?!"

"Damn it . . . Noah's Ark must of sped up the process Conan!" Vi shook in pain, "we only have a short time left as we are now." She fell back to the floor as Amy, Mitch, and George looked at them in worry. Unsure what to do. She looked at the trio, "it was great being your friend guys. Brought me back to a time of innocence. A time before my life twisted on itself."

"Wha-what do you mean Vi?" Mitch asked fearfully, "You two aren't dying are you?" Amy was crying as she saw her friends in pain.

She shakes her head, "No, but after this you won't trust either of us enough to remain our friends." Both of them grip their chest again and scream in agony. In a puff of smoke it became clear. Where Vi was there was now a young woman they didn't recognize, "Looks like . . . the truth is out now Kudo." She remained on the floor recovering from the pain that just rocked her body. "Heh. You are amazing. Enduring this pain just to see Rachel as many times as you did."
Amy, Mitch, and George were speechless, but the three rich kids with them were even more so. Hideki, Seichiro, and Shinya were shocked to their core with what they just witnessed.

Jimmy groaned as he looked up at Rachel. Unsure of what to expect. She was staring at him with tear-filled eyes. "J-Jimmy? Is that you? This isn't a joke right?"

He smiled slightly, albeit guiltily, as he looked up at her from her lap, "I am. Your one and only detective geek never left Rachel."

Author's Note: There will be one more chapter of this. I will be writing it over the next two-three days. I just wanted to write this much before that. At this point a couple of things will end up changing from what was in the movie thanks to Conan and Vi becoming Jimmy and Shiho again. Which didn't happen originally for those who don't know. That was my twist. Because this is based on an hour and a half movie I split this in two so the one chapter wouldn't be too long. Hope you don't mind.
