You Really Want To Do This?

It was passed 7:30 and getting dark by the time Ran reached Agasa's house. She was lucky that he and the Detective Boys were still out. Haibara answered the door, taking in the expression of the person she saw who was so like her deceased older sister.

"Come in. You aren't here for just a social visit, are you?" Haibara turned and walked back into the house.

"Yeah," Ran didn't know how she should phrase her request, "um-"

"You know, right? About Kudo," Haibara cut Ran off before she could say it, "And now you're probably going to ask about the apotoxin and its antidote." Haibara didn't need to see Ran's face to know this was true, "I still don't have any new leads on the cure."

"Really? Ah, but that's not exactly what I want. And, yes, I found out about Shinichi. I eavesdropped when he told Dad about it a few hours ago. Will you give me one of the pills to take? I know the risks," Ran had a determined look in her eyes.

"Yes, if you really want it, I will. I must warn you though; the actual shrinking part may be the worst physical pain you've ever felt…Okay, I'll be right back," Ran sat down on the couch while Haibara went down to the lab to retrieve the apotoxin after making a phone call.

"Hello."

"Agasa, you're taking the Detective Boys home?"

"Yes, that's right."

"Then I ask you to bring Kudo-kun here with you after that. I'll explain later," Haibara hung up without waiting for a reply.

Haibara went back to Ran with a pill in one hand and a glass of water in the other.

"Here, if you really want this," Ran took what she was offered.

Ran swallowed the pill and then lay down on the couch as she heard Agasa's beetle park in the driveway. Haibara covered Ran with a blanket.

The door suddenly flew open and there stood Conan with Agasa behind him. He was yelling for Haibara, desperate for news about the antidote. Conan calmed when he saw Haibara standing at the end of the couch closest to the door. She looked cool and calm and expectant of a storm. And then he caught sight of Ran. He took in the glass of water on the coffee table and saw her face—she was in pain. His eyes widened in horror at what he was sure had just taken place.

"Ran! No!" Conan turned to Haibara, "What did you do?" Haibara didn't react to the shout.

"Now, now. Calm down," came Agasa's attempt to keep things under control.

"I gave her the apotoxin. I did what she asked. And it's not like I shoved it down her throat, so don't look at me like that," her voice was icy. She turned and went back to the lab. Agasa also left the two to go to in his room and give them privacy.

"Shinichi, I asked. I want this. Don't blame Ai-chan," Conan turned back to Ran and walked over to hold her hand.

"I'm sorry, Ran, I'm sorry for hurting you and lying and everything…" Conan looked like he wanted to cry.

"Baka! You don't have control over everything. Well, I still forgive you. And I still love you," both Ran's and Conan's cheeks were red.

"Did Haibara tell you?"

"No, I overheard you and Dad but she did answer a few questions," Conan nodded.

"Ah! There's something I want to do while you're still smaller than me," Conan just looked at Ran with curiosity.

There was a second of silence and then: "Itai! Ran-neechan that hurt!"

"Oh! I'm sorry Conan-kun."

It took a moment for Ran to process that. "Hey!"

The boy let out a laugh and his best friend joined in before the drug took effect.

Ran sat up on the couch, dwarfed in her teen-size clothing. She would have to get used to everything being so big again.

So as Ran changed into the smaller sized clothes she had brought with her, Shinichi went to apologize to Haibara.

Working Out Being Small

Soon after that, Ran transferred to Teitan Elementary. Shinichi and Ran took a different route to school so as not to run into the Detective Boys. Shinichi went into the classroom ahead of Ran, leaving her in the hallway. When everyone was at their desks, the fourth grade teacher gave her announcement.

"Class, we have a new student."

Little Ran walked into the classroom to stand in front of her new classmates, "Hello. My name is Morita Ren. It's nice to meet you."

The class echoed back, "It's nice to meet you."

Ren was then told to take the seat next to Conan.

The Detective Boys were excited to have a new classmate. They immediately asked her if she wanted to join their group. She said that she would love to. Haibara and Conan were off to the side talking about the future while the other three asked Ren questions about herself.

Haibara had decided to continue to try and find a cure for the apotoxin until she ran out of the resources to do so. Conan told her that he and Ren would live with his parents in another part of Tokyo that was away from the Kudo house but was close enough to easily commute to Teitan Elementary.

After school, Conan and Ren miraculously got away from the others and went to the Kudo residence.

Shinichi's parents had come back to Japan while he was in school. They were waiting at the house with Ran's parents.

It was decided that the cover story for Shinichi and Ran would be that they had both decided to study abroad. Shinichi would be in the U.S. and Ran would be in Canada.

They would handle any problems as they came up. In the end, everything would work out fine.

Note: I know the ending's not the best it could be, but this is what I originally wrote a few years ago and I didn't want to change it.

Thank you so much for reading!
