The Phone Death Case

Author: Kazumi Kairi or Kairi-chan

This is my very first 'Tantei Gakuen Q' aka Detective School Q. And may I remind you that their last names will come first before their first name. This idea was made by myself while I was sorting out for this story. And the OC(original character) has been already made long time ago or last year October.

Event 1: Appears Takahashi Hitori

Somewhere in a tall building in a very dark room, a young boy was staring at the window's view. He was staring at the city's beautiful view with a frown expression that was on his face.

"Soon I'll be out of my cage…" he whispered.

"My son… it's time." The man told him, "You should go to school.

"I know, Otousan. And thank you for letting me out." Said the boy.

The man gave out a smile to the boy, "No problem. Like I said before I'll find a perfect school where you can fit in."

"DDS or Dan Detective School… sounds really fun. But what if I—"

"Don't worry son. I'm sure you'll find some who'll accepts you." He told him

In an old and scrubby mansion of DDS or Dan Detective School where Class Q are, they are doing their usual routine in their classroom while they're waiting for their teacher's arrival. Kyu was slumping himself on his desk. Ryu was reading a black book while he was sitting on his desk. Meg was looking at her notebook as she was scribbling or doodling. Kazuma was typing the keyboard on his laptop that he brings it everywhere he goes. And Kinta just came on the classroom gasping for air.

"What's with you, Kinta?" Kazuma asked him. "You seem really sweaty."

"Well… I was just practicing for my new techniques but then I forgot the time." Kinta answered.

"So in other words you ran really fast." Meg finished Kinta's explanation.

"It looks like you're really busy on chatting with each other." Said an middle man's voice

"Principal Dan!" Kyu exclaimed.

The Class Q all stands up straight and greeted to their Principal. Morihiko Dan was well known all over Japan and he is the only detective who could only carries the gun. Also he is the founder and the Principal of DDS. Katagiri was pushing Principal Dan on his wheelchair.

"What's bring you here today, Principal Dan?" Kazumi asked him politely.

"I'm here because I want to introduce a new student." Answered Principal Dan.

"You may come in, young man." Katagiri called.

A young boy appeared behind the sliding door and goes next to Principal Dan and the blackboard, and then he faced to his new classmates. The new boy was a brunette with few bangs over his forehead and his ears, his eyes has the color of a raging red like fire and his skin were tanned. The boy wears a red long sleeve shirt with a turtleneck, brown pants that reminds the color of an eagle, around his neck was a dog tag with his name in Japanese letters, and he's wearing black shoes. The new boy has a smile on his face, which wasn't removed from it.

"This young man will be your new classmate. I want you all to be nice to him. That's all." He said. "Let's go, Miss Katagiri."

"Yes, Principal Dan." Answered Katagiri.

With Ms. Katagiri pushed Principal Dan's wheelchair for him and left Class Q. Kyu was the first one who near the new brunette haired boy, since he's being socialize.

"Welcome to Class Q. My name's Kyu, and you are?" Said Kyu

"My name's Takahashi Hitori." Said the boy called Hitori. "You guys are?"

"My name is Minami Megumi, you may also call me as Meg." Meg gave a sweet smile at Hitori.

"I'm Narusawa Kazuma." Said Kazuma.

"Tooyoma Kintarou. You may also refer me as 'Kinta'." Said Kinta.

Hitori turned his head to the last person who didn't know.

"And you might be?"

"Ryu… Amakusa Ryu…" Ryu answered.

"Everyone back to your seat!" a loud voice exclaimed.

Hongou appeared at the time being for Class Q. Everyone including Hitori went to their seating place, as the angry teacher looks around the class he saw the new brunette lad in front. Hitori didn't looks scared at Hongou's stares but he still has his smile on his face. Meg was really surprise to see Hitori was smiling at the angry teacher.

"And who might you new student be?" asked Hongou in his usual tone.

"Takahashi Hitori, sir!" Hitori answered back calmly still in his smile.

"Wow! He seems really calm at that." Meg whispers.

"Yeah most likely they get all scared from him." Muttered Kazuma.

"I wonder why he keeps on smiling?" Kyu wondered.

"Okay enough of it, everyone turn the page…" Hongou announced.

"Oh boy.." Kinta muttered. "Another death lecture."

Hours later

Class hour was done, and it's lunchtime for the class. The Class Q were slumping on their own desks except for Ryu, still as calm as ever, and Hitori who still has the smile on his lips.

"Man that was too harsh for Mr. Hongou. Doesn't he ever get tired on that tone?" Kazuma complained.

"Since it's lunch time how about eating at outdoor. It's really a beautiful day." Said Meg.

"Sounds good to me." Ryu agreed.

"Hey Hitori you want to joined with us?" Kyu offered him.

"Sure. It would be great." Answered Hitori. "If you really don't mind…"

"Not at all, Hitori-kun." Said Meg. "Hey how about we give you a tour in this school, since you're new."

"That's great!" Kinta exclaimed.

They all went out of the old mansion, the burst of the sunlight's rays reaches on the Class Q.

"It's really beautiful!" said Hitori.

"What's beautiful on the sunlight?" Kinta asked him.

"My eyes are getting burn." Kazuma complained.

"Well… if you see under the sunlight you'll find the true beauty." Hitori explained with a smile.

Kyu and Ryu were surprised at Hitori's answers. And they find themselves that the new brunette lad's explanation was really deep of the sunlight. But for Kinta and Kazuma they find it really difficult on understanding what he really meant.

"Who! This is really great like a perfect day for a picnic!" said Meg.

"Hm?" Hitori whispers.

"What's the matter Hitori?" Kazuma asked Hitori.

Hitori neared under the tree and lifted up something that was on the ground. Kyu and Meg went next to Hitori and leaned forward to see what the brunette lad was doing. And saw Hitori was helping out a poor little bird Meg also noticed that the bird's left wing was left unfold.

"It seems that the bird's left wing is broken." Said Kyu.

"That shouldn't be a problem for this poor creature." Hitori said, "I'll bandaged this one."

"Hey you know to nurse this one?" Kinta asked him.

"Yeah…" answered the brunette lad with a strange tone.

Ryu heard Hitori's voice really clearly that his answers wasn't that sure, but to his guess there's something in him that they didn't see the holes on the brunette lad. What Ryu could see from Hitori was his eyes as it was telling him that there's more of this new guy.

"There this should do for it." Said Hitori as he finished aiding the bird.

"That was awesome, Hitori! You sure know to aid the bird." Kyu compliment him.

Hitori put the bird back to the tree's branch where most birds really loves and belongs to.

"This where you should be little one. I'd bet your child will be lonely if you got caught." Said Hitori to the bird.

"? Man that seems pretty deep for him." Said Kinta

"Boy he's a real genius, alright." Kazuma commented.

"I wonder how Hitori knows about that?" Meg wondered.

"Whoever he is, he sure is a mystery." Said Kyu.

Away from Kyu and the others, a boy who seems to be one of the DDS students was watching behind of the trees. He was watching at the new brunette haired boy who was having a happy conservation with his new classmates. The boy was smiling very evilly.

"That new kid…" he said, "Your life will be miserable."

After eating their lunch, the Class Q went to the main building of DDS, as Hitori entered the main building. Eyes are all seeing at the new boy, many girls were giggling at the new brunette haired lad's presence on their school. While the boys were commenting or asking to one to another about the new kid, Hitori felt a very nervous tense.

"Hey who is that new cutie?"

"I heard he's from Class Q."

"Eh? Is that true?"

"Look at the way he smiled. Isn't he that cute?"

"I like his kind and caring attitude. I wonder if he has a girlfriend?"

Many girls were whispering one to another one commenting on the new boy of Class Q. There the large of crowd of girls were nearing to Hitori. Luckily Kyu, Ryu, Meg, Kinta, and Kazuma were out of the way from the crowds. As for Hitori he stared at the crowd of girls that are forming circle around him.

"Whoa! I didn't quite expect that Hitori would be that popular." Said Kinta.

"Well it's really obvious when it comes to a new guy in this area. And also the girls react fast when it also comes to a new guy." Kazuma explained.

"Yeah but you know there is a mystery to Hitori…" said Kyu, "I mean did you just noticed that he always smile?"

"Hm? What are you talking about Kyu? Of course it's normal for him to smile like that." Said the older Class Q.

"You may be right, but my sense is telling me that there's more than being a normal guy for Hitori." Ryu answered in a mysterious tone.

The boy was smiling evilly while looking at Hitori who was attracting many girls and they were forming a circle as they were questioning on him. Hitori was being nervous yet he was cool with it when the girls kept on asking. The boy stepped out with a fierce glare that was forming on his face.

"Hey you!"

Hitori turned his back and looked at the person, "What is it?" he asked him kindly

"I heard that you're Takahashi Junko's only son of the Takahashi family. Isn't that true?" said the boy.

Hearing this Hitori felt a sudden shock at the boy but he continue to be calm, "Umm… yes, was there something wrong?" he answered.

The person looked at Hitori with an evil smirk that was forming on his lips, which made Hitori felt a very bad aura on the person. Kyu and Ryu also saw that yet they were curious on it.

"I heard you're an all gifted child, but I also heard you're the Akuma no Kodomo that everyone has been talking about. The child cursed that your grandfather hated you so much." He spat out, "YOU'RE A CURSED CHILD WHO COULD BROUGHT DISASTER TO YOUR FAMILY!"

Hitori froze still like a statue. His eyes widen up and his face darkens. Everyone gasped at what the other person have said it out loud. Kyu and Ryu were listening yet they find it something bad on that boy's speech.

"Hitori-kun's an 'Akuma no Kodomo'? What is that boy babbling about?" Meg wondered,

"Wait if I'm correct there was a rumor that one of the wealthy family kept their son in the family building and never lets him out for years." Said Kazumi, "But I never thought it would be Hitori."

"Hm? Why is that?" Kinta questioned.

"Who knows why but I think Hitori has." The young genius answered,

"I'd get a bad feeling that the situation isn't good." Ryu whispered.

All eyes are turning to Hitori and the boy. The boy was still grinning evilly, he seem to be enjoying to see Hitori was really shocked and see him looking miserable. He really enjoyed making fun to innocent people and messing out their lives, like he was doing it to Hitori.

"Even though you may be a great genius, many people labeled you Akuma no Kodomo because you bring death to everyone!" he exclaimed.

"THAT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU!" Hitori yelled at the person.

Meg gasped as she saw the brunette lad's reaction. The Hitori they all know was kind and caring but when he shows his furious and anger side, it made her scared. Then Meg saw Hitori's eyes changed that she had never saw it before. The Takahashi lad's raging red was replaced a deep crimson red that matches his anger. But that's not all, Hitori was holding the boy on his collar up in the air. This is a very bad situation on their school campus. Luckily Kinta went between Hitori and the boy.

"Snap out of it, Hitori!" Kinta yelled.

Kinta's loud mouth reaches on the new brunette lad as he really snapped out of it. Hitori found himself gripping on the boy's collar really tight up in the air. Of course he found it really frightening at the thing that he almost doing drastic, then he put the boy down very slowly and removes his grip from him.

"I'm sorry…" he apologized. "Please forget what I did."

Without another word, Hitori turned his back and began to walk away from the crowds. The girls were really shocked to see the new boy can be really pissed off and that drastic like he just did from now. The Class Q stared at the sad brunette haired boy. Then new murmurs about the new brunette boy,

"That boys is really dangerous."

"I feel bad about him."

Far away from the main building of DDS, Hitori was leaning his back against the tree. The wind greets him by blowing against it while his hairs were covering his eyes. He was trying to prevent himself from crying. The bird that Hitori aided him was sitting at his shoulder looking at him curiously.

"It looks I may have to stay in that building again." He muttered.

"Hey Hitori-kun!" Meg's voice called him.

Hitori snapped out from his daydreaming and looked at the person who were in front of him. And he saw Kyu, Ryu, Meg, Kazuma and Kinta were staring at him with a concerned look. Hitori… just gave out another smile, which is obvious that he was just pretending he was all right.

"Oh hi Meg-san and minasan. Is there something you want to tell me?" he said.

"About what happen just now was it really true?" Meg asked him.

"… I see that you've all heard of me just now from that boy." He said, "I'd bet you'll dislike me…"

"That's not true is just that…" She said.

"We're all concern about you." Kyu finished Meg's sentence.

"I know this may be hard for you but was it that true about 'Akuma no Kodomo'?" Ryu asked him.

The young brunette lad stared at them surprisingly that he had never thought there would be someone who are interested to know more about his background. Of course since his new classmates are very curious about him, he has no other choice but to tell them.

"Yes I am. You see, I used to have a twin brother who was two minutes than me. My mother and Oniisama suddenly become ill but only I didn't get ill. Then after two days they both died because of me." Hitori explained. "After they died, my grandfather suddenly accused me that I'm a Devil because I bring death for them. However Otousan defended on me that it wasn't my fault that I killed Okasan and Oniisama. After all, I ended up staying in the building… like a bird without seeing what's true freedom was like."

"That's really sad." Said Kazuma.

"Hmp! I can't believe you have such an arrogant grandfather but it wasn't your fault." Exclaimed Kinta.

Meg stared at Hitori who was now gripping as both his hands formed into fists. She could see that the brunette haired lad was really angry and sad to his background. Ryu, however felt the same way as Hitori described of being alone, he used to experience the same loneliness to him. And Kyu also felt bad hearing about the death of both mother and twin brother. Then Hitori chin up his head, this time they're seeing his eyes being determined.

"But of course I won't let that easy! I tried really hard for my family that I'd prove to them that I'm not a curse child. Even if they're harsh to me I'll overcome to my fears. So I won't give up until I succeed." Added the brunette lad. "Also I bet that what Oniisama and Okasan wants me to."

"You know, Hitori. You're really strong and you never give up." Said Kyu.

"I'm much agreed with Kyu. I think you shouldn't give up that easily." Agreed Meg.

"So am I." Ryu also agreed.

Kazuma and Kinta nodded their heads together with a smile.

Hearing this Hitori never felt this happy all of his life. Mostly he only thinks that when people saw him and labeled him as 'Akuma no Kodomo', he felt this was the end of his life. But now his life changes as he finds that there is new hope for him to make his life easy.

"… Thanks guys you're the second one who accepts me." Hitori muttered.

They didn't hear Hitori was muttering out but Meg and Ryu were the only ones who could barely hear the brunette lad's small mutters. Then Meg suddenly remembers.

"Umm… Hitori-kun, I don't want to ask your personal but a moment ago, I saw your eyes turned deep crimson. It's like you're angry." Said Meg.

"I also saw it too." Ryu added.

"That is because… I was born with this supernatural, Meg, Ryu. You see, my eyes can changed any colors depends to what mood I get." The brunette explained, "Like what you said Meg, deep crimson can means I'm angry. There are other colors in my eyes but you'll get to see it soon."

"Hey that sounds really cool, Hitori!" Kyu exclaimed in an excitement tone and his eyes were flashing.

Hitori stared at Kyu with a small sweat-drop above his head. Then the rest of Class Kyu sighs in annoyed except for Ryu who was very calm and used to that. It was the first time for Hitori to see Kyu in that age yet he find it like childish for him.

"Ahaha… you're really funny Kyu." He said. "I guess I have to stay here as Class Q for awhile."

"That's good to hear Hitori." they said.

And this is the beginning for Takahashi Hitori in Class Q.

Event 1 Ends

Kairi: So how was it? Since I know you might be wondering on Hitori's label Akuma no Kodomo, it means the Devil's Child. And I know I might that I'm being harsh on my character but hey I was trying to find some good character's background behind to his smile. Please R and R.
