Easter Special

This is going to be a really short update. I just wanted to write this. It's based on something my old friend's brother did when I was little. I know they don't really do Easter in Japan, but I thought it would be fun. Just go with it! 😁

-----------------------

You were sick and tired of being a little kid. People treated you like an inferior species, who couldn't possibly comprehend anything. Normally you just bit your tongue and let it go, but this was the very last straw. Ran had forced you into a bright pink sundress, shoved a pair of fake bunny ears on your head, and handed you an empty wicker basket. You were now standing in the middle of a crowd of sniveling brats, getting ready for an Easter egg hunt.

"What exactly are we doing?" You yawned.

"I already told you, an Easter egg hunt." Conan sighed.

"And what does that mean?"

Conan looked at you as though you'd grown a third eye. "Are you serious?!"

You frowned at the boy. "I'm sorry for my ignorance, Judo. I mean, I should obviously know about all of these things that normal children grow up doing with their parents, siblings, and friends. Gosh, how could I possibly forget." You grumbled sarcastically.

"My bad." Conan mumbled.

"You think?" You snorted.

"All you have to do is go around and find the colorful plastic eggs." He explained.

"That seems pointless. Why am I here?" You grumbled to Conan.

"Because Ran wanted us to do this." Conan replied.

"That's not good enough." You retorted. "If I am going to suffer through this humiliation, I need a better incentive."

Conan thought for a second, then smirked. "The eggs aren't hollow. Each of them has candy in it." You looked at him, your curiosity piqued, but not satisfied. "And, whoever gets the most eggs wins 5k yen to spend at the candy store that is hosting the hunt." Conan added, knowing very well that candy was a quick method to motivate you.

When they blew the whistle to begin, you took off like a bat out of hell. You didn't slow at all. You simply scooped up eggs as you ran. You already had seventeen eggs before most people even found one. You even went so far as to snatch one that a little three year old was going for.

Conan caught up to you, and glowered. "Did you really just steal that egg from a baby?" He chastised.

You glared back. "All's fair in love and food. Especially candy. Besides, I've stolen worse." You grumbled, before taking off once again. When you filled your basket, you brought it over to Ran, who kept an eye on your eggs for you.

You were determined to gather as much candy as you could get your grubby little hands on. You loved candy with a fiery passion. Needless to say you were crushed when Kogoro had informed you he wasn't going to waste money on your sugary addiction. Hence your ravenous search for all the eggs.

You didn't let up until they blew the whistle to end the hunt. When they went around to see how many eggs everyone gathered, they didn't bother counting. Most people had five to ten, but you had 127 plastic eggs piled at Ran's feet (you'd counted as you collected).

You were beaming with pride, despite the glares you got from some of the other children. They brought you a clean trash bag to carry all of your eggs in, and handed Ran the candy money. You skipped happily all the way back home, the bag slung over your shoulder. You'd completely forgotten about the dress, and the bunny ears. All you cared about was getting back, so you could open up each and every egg, and retrieve the treasure hidden within.

Conan was going to be mad that you'd been absolutely ruthless in a competition for children, but he couldn't help but smile when he saw the childish joy beaming from your face.
