"Sugoi!" Ran said in awe, as they finally made it to the Suzuki family's new hotel. Unfortunately, she was unable to change her school outfit, and niether Conan. Colleen, always the prepared, did and had her black bag over her shoulder. She was wearing black flowly pants, and a red, long sleeved, cold shoulder shirt. She had her hair in a bun, the crazy bangs spiked up in their usual messy way. On her feet were red strappy sandals. Conan and her were looking around at the scenery, Colleen taking out a piece of bacon from her bag. Conan sweatdropped,"Where'd you get that?" Colleen replied with a mischievous smile. After a bit of small talk with Sonoko, Ran was pulled off after her caramel haired friend, Agasa following behind her. Ai came up, her arms crossed.
"Why did you come anyways?" He asked, as he didn't ask her that the day before. The three were following after their 'caretakers'.
"Well you know, a girl has to look at other girls, to make herself feel pretty." Ai replied, walking faster. Conan and Colleen looked at each other and then back at her.
"Huh?"
"Sonoko-san!" A black haired woman in a pantsuit said hurriedly.
"Ah, everyone, this is Miss Japanesque's sister, Kotobuki Mimi-san." Sonoko said. Colleen gave a small wave. Mimi nodded at the group, but then turned back to the heiress.
"There's a bit of a problem..." Mimi said,"Imouto has gotten some blackmail." Conan raised his eyebrows at that, while Colleen immediately started to write it down.
"A new plot..." She muttered under her breath, causing Ai to roll her eyes. The group went to Karen's room and Mimi showed Sonoko the blackmail:
My dearest Karen
Congratulations on receiving the award
Tonight, I'll shoot through your heart,
And make you a puppet I will control
If you disobey me, 'death' awaits.
Sonoko's eyes widened, her hands bringing the paper to Conan's eye level. He got closer, reading it too.
'It has a sweet smell...' He thought. Colleen took a smell too.
"Maybe we should stop the ceremony..." Sonoko said, closing the paper up.
"That won't be necessary," Kotobuki Karen said, coming out from around the corner. She lifted a piece of her dress, showing that she was hiding a knife.
"They come near me, and they have this in their throat." Karen said threatingly, causing everyone in the vicinity to gulp involuntarily.
"You don't meet girls like that everyday..." Agasa said as Karen left, looking down to Ai and Colleen,'Although I know two quite personally...' He thought.
"Well, let's go to the party!" Colleen cheered, causing everyone's mood to lighten up a bit.
Later...
The group managed to get to the party hall with no problem, and the group was sitting at a table.
"Here you go, madam." Sonoko smiled, placing the cake in front of Colleen, the girl drooling. She immediately took her fork and began to dig in, Ai and Conan each sharing with her.
"Ne, Ran, how about you call that detective geek to see if he can solve this case?" Sonoko suggested, causing Conan to look up,"Or at least that Homuzo friend of yours. Wasn't she a well known detective in England?" Ran took a split second glance at the shrunken teens, no one noticing.
"But they're probably busy and..." Ran trailed off, looking to the side.
"Ran, onegai! (Please)." The heiress urged once more, and Ran gave in. She pushed in Shinichi's number.
She sighed,"I knew I wouldn't get through." The beep for the voicemail came.
"Ah, Shinichi! Miss Japanesque, Kotobuki-san, received some blackmaile and I thought..." She was interrupted by Sonoko taking her phone.
"Ran is in trouble, you better hurry over here!" She threatened and hung up.
"Sonoko! Shinichu's very busy and..." Sonoko shushed her.
"If he doesn't come, you should forget that guy and move on!" Sonoko glared,"Now, let's get some food in you!" The girl dragged her friend off to the table. On the way their, Ran relayed the message to Michiko's phone box.
"You two should call her back." Agasa suggested. The two pushed their glasses up, and walked out. Conan whipped out his flip-phone, ready to call Ran first when a sudden bout of pain convulsed through him.
"Shin-chan!" Colleen said nervously, kneeling to help her cousin. But suddenly, she was overcome with the pain too.
"W-what's going on?" The girl, obviously not familiar with the pain of changing to normal, said through gritted teeth.
"We're... changing back to our teenage selves..." Conan replied painfully. Ai came running out, clutching her chest too.
"Haibara! The cake!" Colleen panted.
"Yes, I know, it was baked with Baigar..." Ai replied, when another convulsion came.
"Haibara!" The cousins said in unison, and grabbed her hands. The three then ran to the nearest secluded spot, which was the girl's locker room. The three seperated, each hiding in a different aisle to keep their privacy.
"I-I'm sorry... I... broke the lock to the... door..." Ai said through the pain,"Nngh!"
"Haibara!" Conan yelled, clutching his chest. Colleen was having the worst of it, never knowing how the pain was.
"Aaah!" She yelled though gritted teeth. The scream wasn't heard from any outsiders, as all of the floors guests in were in the awards room, which was overwhelmed by clapping.
"Michi! Hang in there!" Conan yelled.
"I'll... try... Shin-cha-" She was then over come by exhaustion and the world was concealed by black.
