Conan Edogawa, Detective

[Dammit, he only thought it was only a couple of the mutts but an entire pack?! No wonder why Conan looked like hell; bloody and who knows what else. He knew enough that he quickly took off his jacket and wrapped it around the boy's body as best as he could before picking him up.]

And hopefully they'll stay there.

[With boy in one arm and fighting rod in other, Adam starts running back towards the town. He was unaware that the pack mentioned was starting to catch up with them...

Or the fact that his communicator decided to turn itself on, sending a video feed of everything.]

[Conan doesn't fight against Adam's actions. He knows his own injuries, and can easily calculate his chances of evading the rest of the pack on his own. On his skateboard, with a full charge and no injuries he gave himself a good chance. Like this? There was no chance at all.

So he allows Adam to wrap him up and tuck him under one arm, even as he pays close attention to the forest behind them.]

...They're coming!

[Oh great. He's running on pure energy at this point and even forgets to hold back his swearing as one of the ferals decide to make an attack from behind him.]

Shit!

[He brings his rod swinging, smashing it down on the dog's head before giving it a good roundhouse kick back, making it hit a few other of its pack memebers backward. But he's not looking back, only thought is getting back to Dissimulo...more precisely, the subway.]

[And once again Conan experiences being tucked under someone's arm as they ran for safety. He keeps a careful eye on the area behind them, ready to shout a warning if necessary.]

[It takes him some time but Adam finally found himself running down the familiar main street of Dissimulo. It was only a matter of time before they reached the subway but the pack of ferals were still on their heels and right now, Adam can only defend against them instead of attack; Conan was injured enough and certainly did not want to add on to them.]

These things just don't know when to quit!

Adam!!

[Having seen the both Conan's broadcast and what was accidentally recorded by Adam, Ran doesn't bother to respond to either of them. She can tell they need help, so she runs--

Recognizing the main street of Dissimulo.

Putting her karate skills to use, she seems to be able to kick the ferrals back enough and keep them at bay until she can catch up with them--but she knows better than to try to fight the whole pack.]

Oh my god...I saw...

[Everything.

Or maybe not everything, but enough. No time to ask for details though, and no time to catch her breath--]

Is he okay?

Posted by

[Conan stares out from his position and follows her movements worriedly. When she catches up with them he hastily puts on a smile.]

Don't worry, Ran-neechan! I'm fine! Adam saved me.

Posted by

Just barely. We need to get to Discedo right now!

[He sees the pack starting to circle to them and growls. Persistant buggers...]

First, we gotta loose these pups.

Posted by

[Okay. Maybe she'll spare a second to breathe, as they try to circle them, but she's alert all the same. She does look a little relieved when Conan smiles at her, but of course his words do nothing to stop her from worrying, seeing his injuries like that.]

Yeah, I noticed--

[She gives good hard kicks to the two of them who were trying to make their way in front, letting out a sigh.]

I can try to hold them back, but we've gotta make a run for it before we're surrounded. The subway's just up ahead...

"I don't think their eyesight is very good. Maybe they could be tricked." Conan eyes the surrounding creatures with calculation.

Posted by

[Tricked? With what exactly? There wasn't much to use as a distraction. Adam took a quick look around and noticed a open barrel close by. If he could use his rod to tip it and startle the beasts, it can give them an opening long enough to run out.

But he couldn't do it while holding Conan so he puts the boy in Ran's arms.]

When you see an opening, run.

[In quick succession, he raises his weapon and smacks the barrel down, spilling the contents on the ferals close by. They yelped and started to scatter enough that a path was formed in front of the trio.]

Go!

Posted by

[She looks around as well when Conan suggests tricking them, but indeed, there really isn't much. She'll have to commend Adam on his sharp thinking though, and when the ferrals' attention is broken up and they're distracted--

She does what he says, running.

Dashing into the subway station as she holds the door open for them.]

Posted by

[Conan just does his best to hold on to Ran without getting in her way.]

Posted by

[And Adam's right behind them, sprinting as fast as he could and to provide good cover for the kids. It wasn't long before they reached the terminal and he made the call to get the train to them.]

All aboard!

Posted by

[She steps onto the train first then, panting--still running on the adrenaline from a few moments ago. The seats look more inviting than usual...

And after Adam steps onto the train with Conan in hand, she takes one.]

Nice thinking...

Posted by

[Conan closes his eyes, sagging a little in relief as Adam steps on board. With the immedate adrenaline gone he begins to fully feel the pain of his injuries.]

Posted by

[Right when he got in, Adam slumped in one of the seats completely exhausted. Breathing heavily, he pulled out his communicator and began to dial a frequency.]

I'm calling Harper and letting him know we're heading his way.

Posted by

[After a moment, the pace of Ran's breathing slows to a normal pace. She can't seem to take her eyes of Conan and his injuries, which seem to be bothering him a lot more now than it did a few moments ago. She does hear what Adam says though, and is alert enough to ask about it.]

Is he a doctor...?

Posted by

He says he is. I've talked to him before.

[He avoids Ran's gaze, not wanting to see the worry in her eyes.]

Posted by

He's right. Owen's the one who helped me during that fog.

[He could feel the tension in the train car...something he really wanted to be gone.]

Posted by

[She gives a bit of a nod, though it doesn't look like she feels any better about it. She lets out a sigh, looking once to both of them--

Noting how Conan is avoiding her.]

Okay...so?

Either of you wanna tell me what was going on out there?

[Like why the hell Conan was out there in the first place--

They've got a nice long sub ride to fill.]

Posted by

[He still doesn't look straight at her.]

It was my fault. Adam-niichan came and helped me.

Posted by

I saw the broadcast and ran over as fast as I could.

I'm guessing with my communicator on, it recorded something and that's how you came to help us, right?
