Wow, I didn't realize how addicting writing oneshots could be. And thank you for the reviews! If you see any more mistakes, feel free to tell me what they are so then I can fix them.
This oneshot is not a continuation of the previous story. Sorry about that. If you want to continue any of these ideas, just let me know and then reference back to this story and you can do it. I would love to read what you come up with.
Summary: In which Ran gets a stepmom.
Disclaimer: If I owned it, that would mean I could draw and come up with hundreds of murder scenarios and be rich… and Japanese.
Stepmom
Ran stood nervously beside Conan as they both waited to meet her new stepmother. Finally throwing in the towel in his marriage with Eri, Kogoro had went off on some case and came back announcing that he had eloped with a beautiful woman.
Ran, of course, was devastated and did not think that she would take too kindly to this new woman. But she'd try and give her as much a chance as possible. After all, she was seventeen, not a spoiled brat and if her stepmother didn't try to raise her or be her mother, things should be okay, right?
Conan on the other hand had his own worries with the news. With someone else in the house and most likely sleeping in the same room as Kogoro, where was he going to sleep? He did not want to be in the same room with the man and his new wife. Nuh uh, no sir. Not happening.
They heard the footsteps of multiple people climbing up the stairs and Kogoro opened the door to reveal the woman he had chosen to marry. And as he said she was beautiful.
Kogoro coughed to clear his throat, "Presenting Mui. Since I've married her it's too crowded to stay. We're going to be moving in a week. So pack up." With that he grabbed Mui's hand and ran off to show her the house.
Only when he dragged her away did Ran notice that someone had been standing behind Mui. The teenaged boy shuffled a bit and pulled his baseball cap lower to hide his features.
Kogoro shouted from somewhere upstairs. "Ran, show your new brother around town! And take the brat with you!"
Ran stepped closer to the boy and gave a small bow wondering what the other teen was trying to hide. "Hi, my name is Mouri Ran and this is Edogawa Conan." Conan also gave a bow and scrutinized the somewhat familiar figure in front of him.
The boy returned the bow, keeping his face hidden. "Kuruba Kaito. Nice to meet you."
Not that I think this would ever happen but the idea wouldn't leave me alone and I thought it would be funny. Hope you enjoyed and that friendly button is awaiting your mouse click
And what Kaito is hoping to accomplish by hiding his face now, I don't know. They're gonna see it eventually. Anyway, take it and run.
