Chapter 4: The Weird Girl in his Dreams
Conan stared at the girl before him, then she suddenly smiled, he flinched,
"Wha-What do you want?!" he asked, the girl shook her head, it meant nothing, "Huh?"
"I just came here….to talk…" she said taking a seat on a table right in front of him,
"I-If so, could you…uh….please take off these shackles?" he asked, she shook her head,
"That's not for me to decide…"
"Then who?"
"Someone who is respected and most feared," the girl replied, somehow the girl gave off the same vibe with Ran, "But there is a way for yourself to take it off…"
"H-How?"
"Well, that would be a quite hard task, but not telling you would do no good, the only thing you have to do is…." But before she could continue the same force took him away from it, he was again greeted by the blinding light, after getting a clear view he could see Ran doing something well, putting flowers in the vase to be exact that is, she smiled at him, but with a slight anxiety, Conan took his glasses from the bed-side table and put it on, then looked to his right and found a mirror, he was okay, except for the disturbing demon-like left eye, if this was permanent what will he say to the school? Or to Hattori and the others who still doesn't know? Heck, he couldn't even imagine, of course he can't just say, 'Hey guys! You know what I got into this incredible journey where I met someone who is like that can turn into a weapon!' they'll just think his joking and that he's wearing a contact lens of sort, sighing he rubbed his temples,
"Does your head hurt?" Ran asked,
"Huh?" he was confused but soon got what she meant, "N-no…just thinking of something…" he said, he wasn't lying, Ran just nodded, sighing again, "Ne, Ran-neechan…did Maka-san tell you something about why does my left eye look like this?" he asked, Ran blinked, she was hiding something,
"Hn…" Ran shook her head and smiled at him, "She didn't why?" she asked
"N-Nothing…" Conan replied, but thinking of something, 'Maka probably told her not to tell me…' he sighed,
"Oh! So our Prince is awake!" Soul chirped as he went inside, Maka who is behind him eyes widened, and smacked him at the head, "OW! What did I do?" he hissed
"You just deserved it!" Maka scoffed,
"Ne, Maka-san, do you know why my left eye is like this?" he asked, half childish and half serious,
"Huh? You don't know? That simple you're a…" Black Star tried to tell him but immediately earned an elbow to his gut from Maka, who glared at him, which he just nodded as an apology, Conan narrowed his gaze at them,
"Who knows! I have yet not seen anything like this…" she lied, "I'll have to ask our seniors to know first…" she continued,
"Yeah, even father didn't tell me about this…" Kid followed, obviously they were hiding it from him, but what is it? He sighed knowing there was no way out,
"So, is this permanent or what?" he asked, Maka nodded, he stared at her dumbfounded,
"Well, that is unless you get to control that unknown wavelength and power inside of you," she said, Conan stared down,
'You have got to be kidding me?!' "So what should I do with this?" he asked, pointing at it, now looking at Maka,
"Hmm…Now that you mention it you still need to go to school, where an eye patch over it then!" Maka chirped, Conan stared at her with his 'you've-got-to-be-kidding-me' or 'you're-kidding-right?' look, he then pointed at his glasses, Maka just let out a 'oh' then thought about it, "Say you got into an accident?" he gave back the look, Maka sweatdropped, "Well, it's not like you could tell them the truth…" sighing he lay down again, then thought of something,
"I know! I'll just go over to Shinichi-niisan's house and take my contact lenses, wear one on my right while my left is covered with an eye patch saying that I got injured because of a case!" Conan chirped it was fairly easy to think of though, everyone just nodded,
"Good, because you're living in five minutes we'll give you an eye patch then…" with that they took their leave leaving Ran and Conan in the room, the two sighed,
"Conan-kun…" Ran called,
"Nani, Ran-neechan?" he chirped, thinking she might tell him the truth,
"Good luck, since everyone will think it's weird for you to have an eye patch…" but got this instead, Ran took her leave telling him to get ready, he glared at himself,
'As if she would tell me…' sighing he got up and began to change, everyone else waited in the lobby of the building, Conan got down, rather annoyed and angry, well, why shouldn't he be? When he was left alone he could talk to Chiru and ask, but she wasn't answering, ever since his eye reacted like this he was not able to contact his ghoul at all, stomping down he glared at everyone who shivered under it,
"Umm…Conan-kun please don't glare at us like that…" Mitsuhiko started,
"Yeah, especially with that eye…" Ayumi followed, Conan tucked his hands in pockets, and smirked mockingly at them,
"So, you think it's creepy don't you?" he asked, they all nodded, he just sighed, they really didn't get the joke, Haibara smirked at him he blinked,
"Well, you look like a detective from hell right now, fits your current situation…" she mocked, Conan blushed embarrassedly, good thing Satou, Megure, and Takagi were sent back to HQ by Maka who said that they can't be tracked in the building, so they went off to lessen the suspicion,
"Why you…" he gritted his teeth, still glaring at her, then his glare disappeared when Makino appeared in the room, she looked at him then looked away, she looked like she wanted to say something, she was about to open her mouth, when he drag her out of the room, signaling Maka that they need to talk, Maka whom got the signal nodded, "Makino.." he started once they were away from everyone's sight, "You were involve with them?" he asked, she just nodded, "Never mind that for now but can you contact or talk to Chirou?" he asked, she shook her head,
"N-No, ever since I saw their past…" she said, Conan's eyes widened,
"You saw their past too?" he asked rather surprised he thought he was the only one who saw it, she nodded,
"Yeah, I was planning on asking them but I lost contact…" she replied, Conan just sighed, "So you are Kudo Shinichi?" she asked, he nodded, "Only son?" he nodded again, she sighed, "Is your mom an actress?"
"Yeah…"
"Is your dad a novelist?" she asked further, Conan nodded, eyes widening, could there be some kind of connection?
"Yeah, that's right….why?" both paled, "Don't tell me…"
"That there was a connection to this!" Makino added, Conan narrowed his gaze at her,
"H-How old are you? Really?" he asked, she smiled at him,
"Hm? Well, I'm already 19, I accidentally-and intently-drank an unknown drug my brother was making, he said to test it out, and I shrunk, 12 years from my age, which I totally blamed him, he promised to find me an antidote, but before he could do it, he was killed by them," she answered, Conan nodded,
"So, it's different from the one I have drank…" he muttered she nodded,
"Let's get going, they'll think it has become weird since were gone for a long time…" he nodded, with that both of them met up with the others, when they got to the agency, Maka and the others said they'll be staying with Conan, since it was needed so they'll have to stay at the agency where Kogorou meets up with their clients, which they agreed on, while Makino will stay at Ran's room, Kogorou at first didn't agree with it, but soon was forced to, when Maka said that Conan and Makino are vulnerable and unable to perform battle, they might even involve Ran who will protect them, and gets hurt, so they need them to be there for the time needs, of course Conan already wore the eye patch on the way, then bid farewell, to go to the Kudo mansion to take the said contact lenses with Makino, Maka and Soul accompanying him, he actually went there, with the two following, there was Subaru expecting him, but not expecting him to see him with an eye patch covering his left eye, Conan went inside taking off his shoes, in hurry with the three guess following what he's doing but before he go and rush to the library, Subaru stopped him by saying,
"Oh, and someone was looking for Kudo Shincihi earlier, and said to wait for him in the library even though I told her it was futile…" Conan just nodded,
"Thank you, Subaru-san…" with that he ran to the library, with the two following him, when he got there, there was a woman with her back facing them, but clearly she have a raven hair, a long one to be in fact seeing it ended by her thighs, she was also wearing a black jeans, and a black long sleeved top that had white collars in each end, "Umm…" Conan called, the girl whom seemingly heard his call, smiled and faced him, the meisters and weapon paled at the girl, she had a hazel brown eye on her right, but the same eye as Conan's on her left, she smirked, she was the girl, the girl in Conan's dreams, there was no doubt at all, it was her, though Maka, Soul nor Makino didn't know it,
"I had been expecting you, Edogawa Conan-kun…" she chirped,
"Um…but I thought it was Kudo Shinichi you are waiting for," Subaru asked, poking his head in from the corridor, the girl smiled at him,
"Well, I only said that so I could get in…" she lied, she obviously knew Conan's identity, she stared at Conan and smiled at him, Conan turned to Subaru-san and gave him a silent signal to leave them alone for a while, who nodded and closed the door and went somewhere else,
"And you are?" Maka asked,
"Mayuki, Hisashi Mayuki…" she answered, they all nodded, she opened her eyes and stared at Conan, smirking at him, which sent shivers down his spine, she truly fit the description in his dreams, "Do you know why you have that eye, Edogawa Conan-kun?" she asked, Conan shivered and touched the eye patch, then shook his head, "Can you give us a moment?" she asked the others who nodded and went out of the room, she turned to Conan and is about to open her mouth but stopped and faced the door, "Please do NOT eavesdrop…" she stated or threatened judging from her voice she was quietly dangerous, she then turned to Conan, "Well, I have no right to tell you technically, but that doesn't mean you don't have the right to know, but to know it must be to know it for yourself, I am merely here to guide you and show you the way, and give you hints about that newly awakened powers of yours, I might not be able to tell you what that is, and you might not have much time to figure out what that is or to control what that is, but since if you can control it you can hide that left eye of yours(she doesn't mean hide like hiding it with the eye patch, but like turning it to his normal azure eye)obviously I haven't controlled mine, though I know how, I can only teach you on how to control it but then I do NOT know how it will turn out so I hope for you to already be prepared on the future answers and results…" she said and explained with no trouble nor stopping, Conan just listened though was about to complain when she said that she doesn't have the right to tell him, which he thought that he didn't have the right to know but stopped and decided not to when she just continued probably knowing what he was about to say, he just nodded, she smiled, then she held out her hand then with that a scarlet fluid light gushed out of her palm which transformed into a pole, a long one, then she pointed it at Conan, "egressus…" she said, but instead of expecting Conan's ghoul to come out, a same scarlet fluid light came out of his chest, which actually shocked him, then the fluid transformed into a scythe far more bigger than the one Soul transforms into or the one Maka wields, but Conan cought it and held it as if it was nothing, he blinked and looked at her,
"How'd you?!"
"I just did what my senior did to me…" then he looked at the scythe, it had the same pattern as the mark he saw in the secret underground room in his dream where he saw Mayuki though he thought that it was just mere symbol but then it was right there marked on his scythe's blade on both sides and worse it was also on the handle, he felt his brow twitch, Mayuki who noticed this said,
"What?! Is the symbol weird enough for you?"
"Ah, no…it's just, I just thought that isn't a bit too much? And this symbol…what does it mean?"
"Oh, that's…" she was about to say but thought about it, with a pause, "for you to find out!" she continued, but judging from the long pause she was having a hard time deciding either to tell him or not, but then there was no use arguing with her, though he just sighed also not sure what to do with the axe, then Mayuki smirked and picked up a stance, then used the pole to hit the eye patch Conan is wearing causing him to step back ending up sitting on the ground while the eye patch fell off the side, he gripped the scythe and looked at her with both eyes wide open, but he could see differently, instead of the place's normal color it was in black and white, though he could clearly see the pulse on her neck, heart and left eye connected by veins also glowing, and he could also see a green glowing fluid ball beside the said glowing heart, he blinked, then she prepared to attack again which he used the scythe's blade to block it, thus scratching his left palm, then she gave another attack which hit his left abdomen, which made him step back again, they started to it in patterns, he even was forced to use the scythe to try to fight back but always fail to do so as she keeps attacking, then as if a spark, after a couple of minutes, his left eye started to glow red while the other blue, then with that with a speed that matches Mayuki's he started to attack back, using the blade also smirking, it when he felt that he was finally free, free from something he should've realized when he was young, they continued on till it was sunset, then he called Ran to not to be able to get home since his staying at 'Hakase's house' which she just agreed to, Maka and Soul who heard about the weapon type and the power he found, they just gaped at him and said nothing, while Makino remained silent, though what do you expect? She fell asleep on the couch before Mayuki and Conan could even summon out his weapon, they ate dinner with Maka and Mayuki cooking the meal, they had a silent dinner afterwards then called it a day, Conan, Maka, Soul, Makino and Mayuki slept inside Shinichi's parent's room, though Mayuki stayed awake stating she cannot sleep, and they can go ahead of her which they did, Mayuki smiled at them, Conan was staying still silently snoring, Soul was drooling, while sitting on the carpeted floor, Maka fell asleep leaning on the wall beside the corner which she eventually took her seat in her sleep, while Makino was about to fall from the bed with her head hanging on the side, seemingly having a good dream, though Conan might have a serious one, Mayuki approached Makino and positioned her on the bed, Mayuki smiled at the crowd before leaving the room, she went down to the living room only to find, Subaru sitting on a couch, drinking a coffee while reading a book, he looked at her,
"Don't you want to sleep?" he asked not showing any particular emotion, she shook her head,
"It's sometimes not needed for me…" she replied taking her seat on the other couch,
"I see…by the way, what's with your eye? It's different than the other…" he asked,
"Oh, this?" she touched her left eye, the chuckled, "It's nothing, really….but knowing your intellect you probably know that I just said that to get off the hook so, I'm going to say that it IS NOT one of your concern, this matter is strictly prohibited to be shared to civilians, and if you must know then you'll have to find the source, link, and clues by yourself, which there won't be any hints, but I can still help you on that…" he just raised a brow, "then how about you? I know you don't need that glasses of yours and that your hair isn't naturally pink…if you'll share I might tell you something about those guests that bespectacled boy brought earlier…" she conditioned, Subaru smirked,
"Wise…but fair enough for a condition…" he said then they had a long conversation,
(In Conan's dream)
[Conan's POV]
Everything was black…maybe it's better, but then it wasn't long when I had a vision of my house, when I still had the identity named Kudo Shincihi, which I have lost, or so they say…I walked towards the library and recalled something, then some hard covered books glowed light blue and went out of the library on their own and floated around me, somehow I felt smiling, like as if they were my long lost friends that I won't ever dare to lose ever again, the pages moved on their own as data's filled my head, that as if a story was being read to me, I smiled, even though it didn't contain the one I wanted to know most, but it surely did and gave me a hint, that I'm one of the descendants of the kishin or a 'demon god' though it still not cleared on what race he belonged since there were three races of the Descendant of kishin, sighing the books lined up at my father's desk, I walked down the hall and entered my room only to see an unconscious girl sleeping on my bad, but as I have figured it was Chiru, my ghoul, I now know the laws, rules and regulation for the host and being one, so she wasn't replying to any of our contacts because she has been fallen into a coma, probably same for her brother as both of them had forcefully cut off the Soul Resonance, then my gaze and concentration fell on the mirror that wasn't supposed to be in my room at all, she probably re-decorated it, and found my, no, Kudo Shinichi as my reflection, I gasped at it and ran towards it, scanning myself, but when I touched the mirror it looked like as if there was a water in it to create the peaceful waves, and showed my actual appearance in the real world, right, not as Kudo Shinichi but as Edogawa Conan, I stared at my own reflection,
"So this is me, huh…" I muttered then the reflection laughed, not my-Conan-/Shinichi's voice but in that second demonic voice,
"What are you?! First Grade to not to be able to understand?! HA! As if Kudo Shinichi a.k.a Edogawa Conan, who is desperately lying to everyone he knows about his identity," the reflection mocked, I felt my brow twitched the reflection was insane!
"What are you getting on? Technically speaking I'm a first grade if you judge by appearance but in knowledge? Way more than that, and I didn't lie for no reason, I tell the lie in order to protect them…" I fought back, but wait doesn't that mean I'm also insane? I mean I'm actually talking to my own reflection of sort, who is also talking in a manner I do not own, he laughed again,
"You must be mad…." The reflection mocked, it also signaled and warned me that he was just stalling for something, but if that's the case, then I better get the hell out of this room and try block all mirrors, something tells me that this guy whoever he is who is now using my alias identity is definitely NOT a good person, neither someone to be underestimated, I hissed at him,
"No, I'm not, I may be a descendant of a kishin or whatever you call them, I'm just a descendant, nothing more, means that I do not produce that wavelength of Madness if that's what you mean…" I turned my back to him and turned to walk towards the door, I could hear him yell,
"Oi, wait where are you going?! We just met! Baka! You better not seal me off! You have no right!" but I just shrugged them off and went to the library again to search for certain books, which I couldn't find any even though Chiru did say something about the book that doesn't exist can exist in this library where she called her hosts-memory-home, in which it exist there as long as it is needed for the host to read or to know, but none did give it to me, some gave me hints but those were it, yet this seems another challenge and a puzzle, in needing to connect the dots, that are missing their lines and corresponding order, that is….
[Normal POV]
Conan then drifted into his dream even while thinking about his current situation, while his reflection kept yelling for him to come back, after a few hours, the household started to shake violently, not just in his dream but in the real life, Subaru and Mayuki who had been having a conversation stopped and looked around, it looked like an earthquake, but too strong, gripping the armchair only both could think of four persons, the ones in the room sleeping, after the violent shake they heard something fell on the floor on the second floor, but judging from the noise it wasn't a person, nor from the room where the four people slept, but from the library both exchanged glances before nodding and went upstairs, they reached the library's door, before opening they yet again exchanged glances and nodded at each other then opened the door, looking inside they could only see one book on the floor, and nothing else, approaching the book, Mayuki picked it up, there was no title of sort, she opened it, everything was in English, she was about to read it when they heard a noise of a something loitering around, a living one to be precise, then they heard it,
*SFX: Monstrous growling* they tensed and turned around only to be greeted by the same description as the monster-except it had glowing red eyes-or the suspect suspected to be the murderer of the serial killing and heck that thing was on top of the book shelf! Subaru raised a brow and smirked thinking that it was an ordinary human, or probably interested, Mayuki glared at it,
'Was he that cause of that?' she thought, she was about to summon her pole, but then remembered that she has yet to tell Subaru that she could summon a weapon herself, she told him about the guest but not herself, she muttered a curse under her breath,
"He's here…." The monster said, she raised a brow, *laughs maniacally* "HE'S HERE!" with that the monster strode towards her, trying to stab her with his claws only to be dodge, Subaru took a step back and took out a gun from who-knows-where he was keeping it and shoot at the monster's back as it faced Mayuki, it turned around, "human…" it said, Subaru raised a brow, but before he could react it charged towards him, he began shooting, it hit the being's chest and stomach but it didn't stop, but before it could get near him a sharpened tip golden pole went through the back of its throat to its mouth blood splattered on Subaru's clothes, face and glasses, the gleam of its eye went out, then the pole was pulled out by the attacker, then everything went slow motion, he had expected the attacker to be Mayuki, but found another one, it wasn't her, she was in a corner also injured but not fatally, the attacker was a man, a man who looked like a teenager version of Conan with no glasses but with red glowing eyes, he was wearing black from top to toe, any person could mistake him as Dracula, but then judging from the weapon he used? Nu-huh, he's not, the man glared at Subaru, and made his way pass him and went towards the door, but before he could get closer to it, a shuriken was thrown at his black by,
"Mayu….such irresponsible..." he turned around smirking, "and an amateur thought…" Mayuki was now standing up next to Subaru with the red fluid coming out of her palms, her left eye glowing, while Subaru only looked at her wounded right shoulder and then to her palms then to the man, then they could hear footsteps from outside, Mayuki who probably knew who was going to come in first,
"CONAN DON'T COME IN!" she yelled but was too late it was opened by none other than the shrunken Edogawa Conan but his right shoulder was also bleeding, who first came in with Maka, Soul, and Makino, they eyes widened at the man, except for Conan who paled, his eye also glowed, both with its corresponding color, then the man smirked as the shuriken dropped, before anyone could react he dashed to Mayuki with such speed then punched her in the gut, Conan then felt a raising pain and gripped his gut groaning, same for Mayuki, but then she landed on the floor, the man then shoved Subaru to the bookshelf, who hit his back hard and also landed on the floor, then he turned to the others, who paled, he pushed his palm towards them, then Maka, Soul, and Makino couldn't move, Conan froze at his position, the man smiled at him,
"W-Who are you?" Conan asked as calm as he could, the man just gave him a warm smile and walked towards him, he crouched as he approached the boy and whispered,
"I'm…." he started, Conan's eyes widened, "you…" then both shed a black shadowing smoke,
To be continued…
