Haunting Memories of Past

Chapter 2

Conan hurried towards the entrance of the hospital, holding the bleeding strawberry blonde girl tightly in his hands, after seeing them the nurse hurried towards them and took the little girl from his hands.

"Please help her!" Conan told the nurse while hurriedly handing over Haibara.

"We'll do what we can, but her condition is serious", the nurse replied and hurried towards the operation theater.

Aggh,, if anything happened to her I will never forgive myself, how could I let this happen,

Beep beep beep,, suddenly his phone started ringing, he picks up the phone after snapping out of his thoughts,

"hello"

"ahh Shinichi-kun, where are you, is Ai-kun with you", he heard the professor from the other end.

"hakase! Haibara just got shot so I am at the hospital", he tried to keep his voice calm but the panic could still be seen from his face,

"WHAT!! I'll be right and I'll inform Subaru-Kun"

"Sure"

And with that he ended the conversation,,, soon the lobby was filled with visiters,, the detective boys were there too, Ayumi was crying while Genta was comforting her, Mitsuhiko was walking in the lobby, panic and sadness could be seen on his face.Agasa was talking to Ran on phone telling her the situation, while Conan was away from all of them, standing in front of the door, lost in thoughts

I know Haibara will make it,, she always makes it,, but its all my mistake,, if I hadn't told her to follow the culprit,, if I just hadn't brought her along,, nothing would've happened, if I just....

Conan was brought to the reality when the door opened and he fell backwards,

"Ah sorry kid,," The doctor said while giving him a hand,, "I didn't see you, are you hurt,,"

"its nothing"Conan said while standing,

After seeing the doctor, Professor Agasa stood up and hurried towards him,

"how is she?" Agasa asked nervously

"You are lucky she was brought to us in time, if you would be a bit late, the girl could've died,", he said to everyone as they all gasped in relief,

"So it means we can see Haibara-san soon?" Mitsuhiko was the first to answer,

"Sure but she is unconscious right now, but you can still see her" the doctor replied with a smile

"Thanks" and with that the detective boys hurried into the room.

"So is her injury dangerous," Agasa-hakase asked,

"Well the wounds due to the bullets on her leg would not allow her to walk for a period of time, if you take care of the wound it will heal soon"

"Ah sure"

"And about the bullets near her heart, luckily she was wearing the latest cloth which is a little bit bullet prove, but I'm amazed that how can a little girl wear these type of clothes, I mean only the FBI and important personalities wear them, this kind of cloth is not available in public," the doctor said thinking to himself,

Aghh how can I tell him that Akai-kun was the one who provided such clothes

"Anyway due to this special cloth only one reached near her heart but we removed it and the rest of the injuries aren't serious,, but a little girl being hit by 8 bullets is not a case we doctors deal with everyday,, you will have to explain it to me later on!!" the doctor said with a serious face.

"Umm.....it was a public crime scene and unfortunately she became the victim"Agasa-hakase replied while smilling

"Ohh...how unfortunate,,,but you would have to be really careful with the wounds she shouldn't bend, and should put these medicines on the wounds twice a day"the doctor said while giving Agasa-hakase a list of medicines.

"Thanks, a lot" Agasa-hakase replied.

And with that both he and conan entered the room.

"Ok kids now don't disturb Ai-kun anymore" Agasa-hakase asked the children who were surrounding Haibara,

"hai" the children replied all together and left with the professor while Conan remained. He silently walked towards the nearest chair to Haibara's bed.

A smile crept its way to Conan's face as he saw Haibara sleeping.She looked so pale but comfortable.

Wow she really looks beautiful while sleeping,,just like an angel,, so peaceful without any fear or tension if she could just be like that every day,

And unconsciously he moved a strand of her strawberry blonde hair behind her ears.

"Onēchan,, please don't leave me like that please stay!"Haibara was pleading with one of her hands reached in the air as if catching someone.

"Edogawa-kun save her,, don't let her go away" Haibara was talking in her sleep.

It made the smile disappear from Conan's face. Hearing Akemi's name from her mouth reminded him of the terrible incident in which he couldn't save Haibara's sister. Haibara was now shivering

"Akemi, Akemi"

Conan took Haibara's hand gently while whispering,

"Haibara wake up,, its only a dream"

"Edogawa-kun I'm so sorry I ruined your life,, Please forgive me" still talking in her sleep she tightly gripped his hand

"You didn't do anything Haibara,, wake up now"

"Edogawa-kun!!!" and with that Haibara bolted straight upwards and suddenly let out a scream because of her wound.

"Oi Oi, you don't have to jump with these wounds" Conan said and hurriedly help her lay down.

"Oh..... What happened????" she asked clueless.

"hmmmm...... Nothing much you just tried to be the hero of the day as you were tired of me being one everytime,,, and got shot" Conan replied coolly while putting his hands behind his head.

"Oh,,,, But its really painful, and were you with me all this time,"

"Definitely idiot" Conan replied annoyingly "I'll go bring the doctor and inform hakase that you are awake now" he said while walking out of the room.

Haibara smiled,,

so he was here after all,, I wonder if he was worried,, even a little maybe,,, Noooo he was here just because of being responsible or just trying to act cool

and she closed her eyes again.
