It had been weeks since anyone saw Kudo Shinichi or Edowaga Conan. It was like he disappeared of the face of the planet. No one or anything could track him down, not a thing. And it was all because Ran had died and it was all his fault she died.
Because he betrayed the them, he betrayed them all and if he just told Shinichi the truth that day then Ran would likely be alive and he would be happy and maybe just maybe the Organisation would have been defeated a long time ago if he just told someone the truth then none of this would have happened. But you can't change the past as much as you want to you just can't.
*****FLASHBACK*****
It was the day after the Funerals of Ran and Mouri Kogoro and a surprising amount of people had come to pay their respects to the deceased. There was a lot of people who 'Mouri Kogoro' had helped from cases and a lot of people from school and children coming for both of them. But all of them had come also to pay their respects and to comfort Edowaga Conan the boy that was always seen with either or both of them and enabling to help them.
But the boy was like stone he shook their hands and said "Thank You" but barely anything else it was like he was in a trance. To everyone that knew him as Edowaga Conan he seemed sad but perfectly fine, he was just like an innocent boy that lost a sister and a role model. And they all thought that he would bounce right back and be himself soon again but never would. To everyone that knew him as the intelligent Detective he really was they all could see the truth he was not alright one bit.
He did not cry not again it was thought that he was still in shock and was his way of grieving process that the death still had to hit him and when it did it would be the hardest thing ever. Shinichi now had lost the reason and will power that he had to go back to his Teenage self. Everything that he wanted was stripped from him and he had nothing to go back for because the one thing keeping him going was Ran and she was now dead. And died in his arms. It was something you could not just get over.
After that he was pretty much the same but worse it was like nothing ever happened. He was ignoring his reality and barely talk to anyone, he would spend most of his days in the library reading books and ignoring anyone.
He would go days without seeing anyone, he did not want to see anyone but he did not tell anyone why. He said he just wanted to be alone with his thoughts. And that he would be fine he just needed the time.
But everyone could see he was not fine and that he was falling apart in the inside. He felt like he had to do something his parents said the he was going to be fine and he was dealing with it but they barely knew their own son. So, he was going to call the only person that he could think of that could help but he knew that see could not but saw it as his only option.
"Hello" said the caller.
"It is me" said me.
"Ah it is you" said the caller making him shiver.
"I am worried about Shinichi is there..." said me.
" I will stop you right there. There is nothing I can do or to be more frank there is nothing I want to do" said the caller.
"But you said" said me.
"And you actually trusted me " said the caller laughing.
" I trusted you " said me angrily.
" Ah and that is what makes me so great " said the caller.
" You are a monster " said me.
" And you are the fool that trusted me and betrayed the ones you love " said the caller.
" I thought. I thought you wanted to help. Help Shinichi " said the caller.
" You mean you thought I would help you get revenge or some comfort out of it " said the caller.
" That is not..." said me.
" You are a Traitor after all and one of US it is in your blood after all. So, you should be grateful after all you are really what you were meant to be " said the caller laughing.
" I am nothing like you " said me angrily.
" But you are after all you betrayed the ones you loved to ensure the safety of the ones you love and willing to sacrifice everyone and everything. Am I right? " said the caller.
I was stunned in silence.
"Now goodbye " said the caller.
" And remember A secret makes woman, woman " said Vermouth and she hanged up.
The phone line was dead and he felt guilty putting his face into his hand covering up the look he was giving himself. He was think she was right if he was never secretly in contact with Vermouth all this time from the beginning then she would never have found out the truth or less things.
He just wanted to keep everyone safe, he thought that Vermouth just wanted to help like she did him but this whole time she had been using him and for what? Nothing all that she got out of it was a trail of dead bodies and now that Shinichi was broken...
He had just noticed someone had turned the lights on, someone was watching him and now stand in front of him. He moved his hands slowly to see this person and he was shocked to see him standing there.
Conan/Shinichi was standing in front of him with his hands in his pockets staring at him. He knew the look he was discovered and Shinichi knew everything and he was caught he was the suspect, he was the criminal.
"Shinichi, I " said.
The look of hurt, hate and betrayal was written all over his face.
"NO Hakase I already know about you and Vermouth " said Shinichi.
"But..." said Agasa.
" I never would have suspected you. But the day that Ran had died I never called you and you were not told by anyone else what happened and you just happened to be there. Just in time for my rescue. That was no coincidence " said Shinichi.
" I can explain everything " said Agasa.
" I already know. Thinking back to the night that this happened to me. You were the one that convinced me to not tell anyone, not even Ran. You were the one that told me to take an alias and you even helped forge papers that helped. I was just thinking you were just trying to help but..." said Shinichi.
"But I was I did not want you to be killed by the Organisation " said Agasa.
" I know that I believe you. But that means you already knew about the Organisation before everything that had happened. That means you were one of them " said Shinichi.
"..." said Agasa making it clear that Shinichi was right.
"Your relationship with Haibara makes it clear " said Shinichi.
" But Haibara is not " said Agasa.
" I know she is not involved but you and Vermouth are she knew you as a child. I am guessing much like Haibara your parents were in the Organisation and you were born in as one of them " said Shinichi.
Agasa just darkly nodded.
" But your family managed to escape when you were a child but you were still young enough to remember the Organisation " said Shinichi.
"And the Organisation came after my family killing them all but Vermouth saved me. She rescued me and got me a new family away from the Organisation away from everything. I was free on them. I felt like I could trust her " said Agasa.
" I know " said Shinichi.
" And that is why I asked for her help. I thought she wanted to take them down after all she saved me. She kept you safe and spared Haibara for your sake not mine. I just thought she wanted to protect you " said Agasa.
" I know " said Shinichi.
" But you were wrong. You should have told me " said Shinichi.
"I know that but..." said Agasa.
" You felt like you could not and that there was no point in telling me. But you were you wrong. You should have told me and it would have helped" said Shinichi.
" I know I was only thinking of myself now that I look back but I did not want you to look at me like I was the criminal " said Agasa.
" You had multiple times to tell me. Tell Haibara " said Shinichi.
" I know " said Agasa.
" I would have forgiven you. For everything if you had just told me " said Shinichi.
"How long have you known " said Agasa.
" Since the moment I woke back up and saw the look on your face. I have seen that look a lot of times and that instant I knew you were guilty of something " said Shinichi.
" And then you tricked me into calling to make sure " said Agasa.
" Yes, I did. I knew someone betrayed us and I had to find out. I need proof and I am saddened that I was right " said Shinichi.
" I gave Vermouth all the list of names " said Agasa.
" I know " said Shinichi.
" Only someone close with the all the names could the Organisation have known that and got the information from " said Shinichi.
" I am sorry Shinichi. I really am " said Agasa.
"But now that you know we can ..." said Agasa.
"I forgive you " said Shinichi.
Agasa looked hopeful and pleased.
" But I quit " said Shinichi.
" What " said Agasa.
" I quit being a Detective "
" I quit tracking down the Organisation "
" I quit EVERYTHING " said Shinichi.
" But you can't. You just..." said Agasa.
" The moment I started was the moment I lost everything. And I have lost so much already I cannot lose anything else. And I cannot be a burden to anyone else " said Shinichi.
"But " said Agasa.
" I have already given the FBI all the information they needed and they now know about you. So, you can all work together. I am finished " said Shinichi.
"Goodbye Hakase " said Shinichi.
***** END OF FLASH BACK *****
And that was the last time he saw Shinichi and the last anyone had heard from him.
After a week Haibara had found out everything and she soon followed, she too had disappeared.
The story was that Edowaga Conan left because his parents thought he was in far too much danger and they wanted to get their son as far away as possible. And it was true but no one could find his parents or Kudo Shininchi`s they all vanished.
Haibara wanted everyone to think she was abroad travelling then getting an Education there a much better one for her future because she was a child prodigy. And that she would not be coming back she had to leave fast or she would not get what she wanted.
Kaitou Kid came looking for Kudo Shinichi and Edowaga Conan but was too late. He was looking for answers and hope but with the disappearance of both and find out that Kudo Shinichi had quit. Edowaga Conan`s parents did not want him involved in anything and that he was no longer in the country. He could not find either of them and came to Agasa looking for answers.
He saw the look of on the thief's face he had given up and was defeated in the inside, he could tell he gave up as well. He had quit because there was no hope.
The FBI worked hard but everyone could tell they too had given up hope. They had no leads and could no longer track down the Organisation they soon gave up. The FBI ended up leaving Japan and were trying to catch the Organisation from America instead but everyone knew they had lost all hope.
They all had lost Kudo Shinichi and they all lost the hope they had in defeating the Organisation along with it.
Within a month the Organisation was back to full strength and Agasa had lost all contact with Vermouth.
The Organisation had won and they never knew why but they were happy and growing stronger than ever.
