From Chibi To Baby

Note: This story was written with the permision of Detectivegirl2005. She even helped me come up with the baby's name, I'm terrible at coming up with names. Same with origional concepts.

Chapter 1: Hello Kochan-kun!

"Um, Shinichi, you really need to come over. Now!"

That was all he had told the miniature detective before hanging up. Telling Ran he was going to Agasa's, he slipped on his shoes and heaed for the Professor's.

What could it be this time? It sounded urgent. Mabey Hiabara had found the antidote! Or mabey there was no antidote. These thoughts and others raced through his head as Conan ran to the house next to his own. Opening the door, he expected to see Haibara, ready to tell him she had found the antidote.

Instead, he saw the Professor sitting in his chair holding a baby.

"WHAT! THAT"S AI!"

"Yes Shinichi, it's her."

Conan stared at the scowling baby girl. She flailed her tiny arms in an unsuccesful attempt to hit him.

"How?"

"Yesterday, her research showed that the aptx4689 actually is performing it's job. It is killing the both of you, but very slowly. It's damaging your organs, and basicly, it will kill you in a month unless something is done."

Shinichi completely forgot about the mystery of Haibara's transformation. "So, I'm going to die?"

The professor smiled. "I'm happy to tell you that there is another way. Haibara here did make something of an antindote. She tried it on herself, and test have shown that the organ damage is reversing. Unfortunatly, there is a side-effect."

Shinichi was not at all pleased. "So, it's either die or turn into a baby?"

"It should only last for a few weeks. Then you'll become Conan again."

Conan held his head. He didn't really have a choice. "Alright, I'll do it."

Scene Change

Shinichi and Agasa spent the rest of the afternoon working on their plan, when the professor wasn't taking care of Hiabara. It gave Shinichi a glimpse of what his life was going to be like for the next few weeks. And he didn't like what he saw. Haibara couldn't walk, or talk, which was kind of nice for Shinichi at first. But she made her demands known by screaming at the top of her lungs.

It was agreed that Conan would be going to see his parents, and that Ran would be taking care of his little brother. When asked about it Ran seemed excited by the prospect. She even helped them set up the crib that Agasa had found in the attic of Shinichi's house in her room, along with other baby furneriture.

The next day Ran took Conan to the airport with his suitcase all packed. She kissed him goodbye and told him how much she was going to miss him. After she left he found Agasa and they drove back to his house, with Haibara in a car seat in the back.

"I really don't want to do this. For one thing, what's going to happen with Kogoro's cases? That man can't even find his socks in his sock drawer, let alone a killer."

"About that," The professor began, handing him an object. "I made this, it combines the watch stun gun with the voice changer. Just hold it against your throat and try to talk. It will pick up the vibrations in your throat and make words."

"But did you have to make it look like a pacifier?" he complained.

"Sorry, I couldn't think of anything else." the old man said shyly.

Once they arrived at Agasa's Shinichi took off his clothes and swallowed the pill that would make him a baby. Fully expecting another round of agony as his body shrunk again, he was supprised to feel no pain. Instead it was like drifting off to sleep.

Scene Change

"Ran-chan, he's here." Agasa held the phone away from his ear as Ran commenced squealing.

"Conan-kun's little brother! Oh, he must be so cute!"

"Yes yes. Please come now." Agasa hung up and went to the two babies. Ai was in a bad mood, having gotten a rash. Earlier he had found her pulling Shinichi's hair. He was very glad that he only had to take care of her. One baby was enough. Two was more then humainly possible for him.

A pounding on the door told him that Ran had arrived. Opening the door, he was nearly trampled by the exited teenager.

"Where is he? Where's the cute little baby?" Ran looked around. Her eyes fell on the tiny form crawling towards her. It was wearing blue jammies, had black hair, babbled inainly, and seemed happy to see her. Ran picked him up, cuddling him. "Well hello to you too!" she said.

"I think he likes you." Agasa pointed out. Ran happily cradled the baby boy in her arms.

"So cute! What's his name?"

Name! We forgot a name!

"It's Kochan-kun." Agasa said without missing a beat.

"Hi Kochan-kun. My name's Ran. I'm going to be your nee-chan." Suddenly the baby started to cry.

"I think he's hungry." Agasa moved to go heat a bottle.

Shinichi's body was doing this, not him. In truth Shinichi wasn't that hungry. Agasa handed the bottle to Ran and she started to feed him. As he finished the last of his meal, his eyes grew heavy.

I guess this body wants me to sleep. He wasn't in a position to argue. Giving in, he laid against Ran's chest and let sleep claim him.

To be continued.
