Shinichi had slept for several hours but it only felt like minutes to her and she was woken by the feeling and the presence that someone was in her room. But this person was not dangerous at all just thinking that it was Agasa she was going back to sleep.

And as she was about to close her eyes they were met with the stinging feeling coming from the sun. She could feel the curtains had been pulled open and the sun was now shining in her eyes making them hurt in so much pain.

" Arghhh " she screamed in pain as she covered her eyes with her pillow.

" Sorry! " said Sonoko.

And then she was quickly pulled out of the bed and away from the light.

" What the hell do you think you are doing Sonoko! " screamed Shinichi as she rubbed at her eyes.

She stood on her feet unable to understand what was going on.

" You are not even dressed yet and you were still in bed when I got here so I had to do something to get you up and ready. So here I am " said Sonoko.

" Can't you see that I am not well and I just wanted to sleep the rest of the day no please leave me alone so I can go back to sleep " said Shinichi carrying the pillow and heading to close the curtains.

" Not so fast " said Sonoko.

And Sonoko grabbed her arm stopping her.

Shinichi gave her a death glare.

" You do look like you have just died " said Sonoko.

For some reason Sonoko was the only one that her death glare did not affect.

Shinichi just shrugged pulling her arm away and continued to glare.

" Your big date with Ran is today and you are already running late " said Sonoko.

Shinichi`s face deadpanned as she had completely forgotten all about that.

" You forgot didn't you "said Sonoko.

"...? " said Shinichi.

She just blinked confessed and unsure.

" SHINICHI! " screamed Sonoko.

Shinichi was nervous.

Sonoko walked over to her and hugged her.

And Shinichi scratched the back of her head confused.

" Fine I am getting ready " said Shinichi.

And she could feel the burst of excitement in Sonoko and how it was about to erupt.

" Right now, I have to do something about that hair of yours and that cowlick you have that never seems to go away " said Sonoko.

" Sonoko! " said Shinichi scolding.

" Arrghh" screamed Shinichi in pain.

And she began to rub at her shoulder in pain.

" That hurt " said Shinichi.

And before she knew it Sonoko was invading her personal space and pulling down her top were her shoulder was covered in bandages from the injuries.

" Shinichi what have I told you about hiding your injuries you will have Ran worried sick if she knew about these and you could have warned me about these and I could have helped you. Done something about it " said Sonoko giving her a lecture.

" Sorry Mum " said Shinichi guilty and then covered her mouth.

'Oops' she said inside her head.

But Sonoko just ignored this and began to walk around Shinichi`s room and was rummaging around her drawers and in the closets.

" What the hell are you doing ? " said Shinichi.

Her clothes were currently being thrown across the room in every direction possible, it was like a hurricane of clothes and she could barely avoid it. And she was just able to avoid the heavy winter coat that was about to hit her and knock her onto the ground unconscious with the bag attached to it.

" I am trying to find you an outfit that will hide out those horrible injuries of yours so Ran will not be scared off or cancel the date and then again she could play Nurse while you play patient " said Sonoko thinking.

She held a few things in her hand and then threw them away again.

" Do you know how hard it is to clean up after Hurricane Suzuki? Because all of your mess that comes with it because it s hard as hell and I do not have the energy for it right now " said Shinichi.

And now Sonoko was gleaming with happiness.

" What ? " said Shinichi.

And the clothes were placed on the bed, the clothes did not even belong to her, or did they ?

It was not ones that she had worn before and then she realized that they were a present from Sonoko that she had gotten for Christmas. She had just thanked her and chucked them in the back of the closet with the other things that Sonoko had gotten her and she had never used or would ever.

" Now off to the bathroom and do something about that bad breath and brush those teeth for goodness sake Shinichi your breath stinks " said Sonoko.

She was forced to take a shower and had to redo all the bandages that had just been done all with Sonoko standing in her bedroom waiting for her. But with Sonoko screaming her name and her ears were in pain and the only way to stop her was to get out and get dressed to satisfy her every need and just do what she needed to do.

And now she was wearing a pair of skinny jeans that Sonoko had made her wear and was an actual Christmas present that Sonoko had got her. But she had never worn for obvious reasons and trying to fight in them was harder than in spandex and she would never wear spandex because who in their right mind would ? And a tank top that was silver and shiny as hell and might as well be a neon sign.

" Sonoko! " said Shinichi.

" Keep the zip down so you can show the goods that you were born with " said Sonoko.

" Right! That is enough just there stop it right now " said Shinichi blushing like hell.

But Sonoko continued to pull the zip down and it was like a war between them before the zip got stuck and they were both not happy with the result.

" Now that hair of yours " said Sonoko ready with the claws out.

" What is your problem with my hair " said Shinichi mad

" This, this part right here " said Sonoko as she pulled at Shinichi`s hair.

" Ouch " said Shinichi pulled her hair back.

" Your hair could be perfect if it was not for this no tiny bit that is a huge giant cowlick and if it was not for this part. And the fact that you always get it dirty and that you need a hair cut because it so long and in your face. You really need a haircut I mean look at all these split ends, if I could only get my hands on a pair of scissors..." said Sonoko.

" It is my hair not yours and it is not your so stay the hell away from it " said Shinichi defending her hair.

She was ready to fight Sonoko if she came at her with a pair of scissors trying to cut her hair and she remembered the last time she did it. She had to wear one of her mother's wigs for a year so that her fringe could grow back to normal length. And she was just glad that the wig was just right for her because that would have been one hell of a nightmare. Come on who cuts the entire fringe off in one cut.

" Fine then " said Sonoko huffing.

" But I am putting it own because you always wear it up and it is much better down but when it is not covering your face and your lips " said Sonoko.

And the fight went on for another five minutes before Sonoko`s phone rang just time because she was saved by the bell because Shinichi was ready to throttle her at that moment.

And now she was being pushed out the door by Sonoko where Ran was waiting for her with a taxi in tow. And now she was being pushed and pulled into the taxi by the both of them giving her little choice but to go on the date. But here in the car she was feeling happy and save with Ran that just made her smile and feel at home. But the question was being these feelings the correct feelings that you are supposed to have with someone you feel romantic towards or something else.

One thing about Ran Shinichi felt that she could trust her and trust was important to her.

" Shinichi, you look amazing " said Ran.

" Thank You " she said nervously.

Ran took her hand and she could feel her feelings and she forgot all about everything and just maybe she could be happy with Ran and feel almost normal like she did with Ran when she treated her like a normal person like she was doing now but on a date. She just smiled at Ran and the date had followed on from there.

Ran had made her smile all day and they had a laugh, it was great and was wonderful day that she had but there was just something missing for Shinichi. And she knew it was because Ran did not know the real her and she did not really know who herself really was a she getting to know who she really was. And this made her feel guilty and this would be a part of having a relationship if she was to have one with Ran. The secrets and lies, she would hurt Ran eventually if she ever found out the truth and she would have hated her and disgusted with her.

Ran was the kind of person that she wanted to be with and if she had to give a description of the kind of person she wanted to date. Then Ran would have matched that exact description, exactly to detail but if you imagine the person you want to be with for so long or just make up something then you are in for a disappoint.

Ran was her escape from life and made her life simple and easy no matter what had happened Ran was the one person she could count on. And she did not want to disappoint her or worse hurt her feelings because she did not want to be that kind of person.

" SHINICHI? " said Ran.

And she was snapped out of her deep thoughts and she had now turned to Ran who now had her undivided attention. And she realized that she just had been rambling about Sherlock Holmes for the past hour or maybe even all day. And she could tell that this was getting to Ran and that she was beginning to annoy her because of it.

But they were interrupted by a group of friends.

And Ran really did not like the fact that Shinichi had given her deduction of the gymnastic girl when she was accidentally pushed into her and was helped to her feet when she was able to deduce that she was gymnast. Shinichi so hated it when she was nervous and did not know what to do or say she usually got clumsy and always and I mean always say the wrong thing, usually a slip of the tongue or something like that.

" Yeah " she said nervously.

" Enough the Sherlock Holmes already! " said Ran mad.

" I wanted to spend the day with you I was hoping a day out with you Shinichi without detective stuff getting in the way. And I am beginning to think that you are trying to avoid me by just talking about that to annoy me " said Ran sadly almost crying

'Well!' thought Shinichi.

" Ran! " said Shinichi in a readable way.

" It is ok! I can't believe you actually fell for that " said Ran laughing and little heartedly.

Shinichi just laughed nervously.

" But seriously I am getting fed up with the Sherlock Holmes talk and I would just like to talk about us instead " said Ran serious.

" Ok! " said Shinichi.

And then the ride started and she had no way out as Ran grabbed onto her hand and she could feel all over her every single emotion going through her body at that moment. And there was spark at that moment and she felt what she felt their emotions were the same and she felt that she could understand her and felt like they could understand each other. She smiled but then they were now going under the tunnel as everyone started to scream and she took her hand away automatically wanting to cover her ears from the pain that was about to come.

But then she felt a drop of something.

It was a single tear.

And a familiar perfume.

And the smell of blood.

She tried to get out of her seat but the she was securely held in and she could not help, it was far too late and she knew in that moment that he was dead.

And she covered her eyes as they all came out in daylight again and the joyful screaming then stopped, replaced with a moment of dreaded silence. Then it was followed by horrific screaming and then the smell of blood and then the sudden stop of the ride throwing them all back into their seats. And all of them squirming trying to get out as some of them were covered in blood. And then the girlfriend who was sitting beside was screaming to get out, screaming and until she was no longer as she was crying and was horrified and in shock.

And as the handle bars went up she knew that she had another case on her hand and that this was the end of her date with Mouri Ran. As Ran was already crying and she was in shock of what was happening.

But there was another reason because there was two men there dressed in thick clothing covering themselves hiding their faces and their identities and they were definitely hiding something. It was in the air and knew this feeling well they were getting impatient, angry and they did not even care about the murder. And most sickening of all they had zero reaction to the blood or just how awful the murder was and there was just nothingness in them. And she knew that they wanted to be somewhere else and they were not even scared of the police just annoyed as if they were just pests and nothing more. And if it was not for all these emotions and other evidence she would swear on her life that they were responsible for the murder. She already knew that they were responsible for other deaths and that they were cold hearted murderers with the literal stench of blood on their hands. And something else something sinister about them and she knew this feeling before.

"THEM! " she said as she tightened her fist in anger.

And as she clutched onto the evidence bag in her hand she was ready to tell them all who the murderer was.

She just wanted this case to be over with and quickly as possible because the sooner the better for everyone.

Even if she had to be a little cold to do it she had to do it and quickly because she had a gut feeling that something was happening.

The two men had not given their names and were beginning to argue with the police and with Megure and she did not want this.

" It was an accident! We should sue them for this it could have been us that was killed. I demand you let us go so I can speak to my lawyer about this " said Tall and sinister is what she was thinking of calling him.

" You are wrong, this is a murder and nothing more " said Shinichi in the distance making everyone look.

And then she began to walk forward.

" Also, the criminal was one of the seven that was on the ride on one of the carriages and that makes the both of you suspect in this case. The murderer is among the seven people that got onto the ride " said Shinichi.

" Shinichi where did you disappear to you have me worried " said Ran running over concerned.

" Kudo is this true what you say ? " said Megure.

" What ? Kudo! " said the bulky sidekick she was calling him.

" That girl is Kudo! " said Tall and sinister.

And she knew the warning signs, they knew who she was and one of them did not seem to care much but the other was panicked but both were definitely on alert. And then she heard the whispers when everyone else heard her name and looked around distracting her from the men in black.

Megure got a diagram out of where everyone was sitting.

" So, if I just exclude you and Ran as suspects then that remains five suspects " said Megure.

Shinichi nodded.

" Sitting in the first two seats were the victim's friends, then behind them were you two and on the third row directly behind you two was the victim and his girlfriend. And behind them in the back row was those two men in black " said Megure.

And he scratched at his head.

" But with the safety restraints on then... the only person that could have possible have killed him was the person sitting right beside him and that was his girlfriend " said Megure.

They all looked to the girlfriend.

But she was still crying and was in shock sitting on the ground and this was not a cold-blooded killer but just someone that had lost someone that they were deeply in love with and nothing more. She could not feel but sympathize with this girl but she could not let this get in her way.

" Oi can you hurry up and solve this already enough with the detective games and just get on with it " said Tall and sinister.

She turned around and cold feel his cold and emotionless eyes on her and she knew he was a cold-blooded killer just from this. She would bet her life on it and she would take him down as soon as she could, she just needed the evidence and the reason to do it.

'Who is he ?' she said inside her head because she knew that he was different from any other men in black that she came cross.

This one was smart and he was probably perfect at everything he needed to be to do his job and so much more.

" Inspector there is a knife in this lady back " said a police man.

" No! Please believe me I never knew it was there and I had no idea how it got there " said the girlfriend.

A bloody knife was revealed to all of them in her bag shocking everyone.

" Aiko how could you ? " said her friend.

" I thought that you loved Kishida ? " said the friend.

" No! I didn't " said Kishida.

" There you have it that woman is the criminal " said tall and sinister.

" Ok! Arrest that lady " said Megure.

They were about to arrest her.

" Hold on Inspector she is not the killer " said Shinichi defensively.

" Ah! Then who is ? " said a shocked Megure.

Shinichi then walked towards the girlfriend.

" There is always one truth " said Shinichi.

" The criminal is you " said Shinichi pointing to the killer.

Everyone stood shocked.

" What are you talking about the murder weapon is in her back " said the friend.

" There is no way a knife as dull as that could cut someone's head clear off and decapitate them " said Shinichi.

" And also considering the differences in strengths between the both of you there is just no way that she could have done it " said Shinichi.

" You wanted to frame her and so you put the knife in her bag earlier in the day " said Shinichi.

" But she was in the front of the carriage, making it impossible for her to do it ? " said Megure.

" But if you use the speed of the rollercoaster and a piano wire/metal hoop then it very possible " said Shinichi.

" Huh! " said the friend in shock.

And to demonstrate this Shinichi got Megure on the rollercoaster to play the part as the victim and Shinichi played the part of the killer as they and other police got onto the carriage to show how it was possible.

" Before the handle bars came down the criminal put her bag pack behind her creating a space that she needed. And as the handlebars came down making space for her to have an alibi but also space for her to escape at the same time " said Shinichi.

She demonstrated this as she escaped easily while the other were still stuck and easily slid out.

" You see because of the extra space I am very easy to just slip out "

Then she heard a prop of a hook on a rope.

" Next, I then take out what I need to kill and take action, using this metal rope and hook I made earlier to show you this as a demonstration and a possible choice of weapon " said Shinichi.

Skilfully she used the handle bars to show how it was very possible.

And she then got quickly out to confront the suspect.

" You are trained gymnast making this very possible " said Shinichi.

" Stop it, Stop it! I hear all this but you have no evidence " said the friend.

" Where is your necklace ? " said Shinichi.

She gasped in shock.

"You were wearing a pearl necklace before we got on the ride and now it is gone " said Shinichi.

And then Shinichi took out the bag of evidence that she had in her pocket.

" This is part of it " said Shinichi holding the bag of evidence.

Showing inside was the hook and some of the pearls inside.

" There is also the evidence...of your tears. When you leaned across me I felt a tear drop fall on me and you were crying because you knew that he was going to die and you were already crying for his loss before he even died " said Shinichi.

The girl was now beginning to cry.

" There is still traces of tears on your face it shows that you were crying even before any of us got on the ride and that you have crying on and off since say yesterday when you set this plan up in motion " said Shinichi.

And then the killer fell to her knees crying and defeated.

" It is all his fault " she said as she cried.

" He dumped me " she said.

" Hitomi you two were together ? " said the other friend.

" That is right just before we started college wanting a fresh start thinking it would be for the best and thought we would be better off just being friends " said Hitomi.

" And he wanted to come here of places where we had our first date and it was just cruel of him and evil reminder. So, I wanted to end it here where it all began using the necklace that he gave me as a present and kill him " she said and then covered her face as she cried.

Then all the girls started to cry except for Shinichi.

All that could be heard was the silence and the tears.

" Hey you need to stop crying " said Shinichi.

" How can you be so calm about this " said Ran.

" I am used to it and this has not been the first time I have seen something like this and it will not be the last. So, you better get used to it " said Shinichi.

" No, I could not get used to something like this and I don't know how you could either " said Ran crying.

Then in the background Shinichi could feel that Bulky was running somewhere and she had to find out.

" Sorry Ran but I have got to go...sorry I will call you later " said Shinichi.

She went to kiss Ran on the cheek but their lips met instead and they had kissed for a second both blushing but she knew that she had to go and now.

And then she ran away without think about it.

Ran stood still for a moment.

" Shinichi wait " said Ran.

But she took her first step and tripped over her shoelace.

" I will catch up with you later " said Shinichi waving.

But as Ran watched Shinichi disappear into the dark she felt like this would be the last time that she would ever see her again.
