The first character, Snake, is mine and somewhat hard to explain though I will if someone asks. Otherwise any Detective Conan fan should know the other characters mentioned. (The reason for reversing Shinichi's name and not using honorifics, I know many fanfic authors would use them, is because I'm easily confused by the honorifics and even more by the last name first thing.)
There is one other of my characters mentioned, Blue. He is even harder to explain than Snake and requires her explanation for anything about him to make sense.
Other than that all I have to say is please read. (I've edited it a bit because of sstimson's post, added better spacing and such, but I'll leave off changing the end for now.)
The Detective and the Time Traveler
Snake sighed and flopped lightly onto one of the two couches in the Mori Detective Agency. It hadn’t been that long since the portal had thrown her into this world but it felt like it was taking forever for her time serpent to find her.A simple trip to another time, that was all this should have been. But instead her trip had landed her on top of Shinichi Kudou and the man named Gin right in the middle of the worst moment possible. After she had knocked herself senseless, it was quite the fall, and Gin had figured out exactly what happened, Snake found the very same poison that Shinichi had just been fed being forced into her mouth.
‘If it hadn’t been for Blue I’d never have survived that.' She thought sighing again, her alien counterpart always saved her even if he didn’t know he’d done it. Looking out the window at the elusive sky she wondered if she really had been saved. That day as the poison shrunk her body it also shrank the Kohasian form within her. Still able to transform she had immediately switched only to find herself even tinier, she had become a tiny, flightless, and nearly helpless pup. It hadn’t been easy to follow Shinichi on four tiny paws, and it was even harder to convince him to let her hang around while he worked on finding Gin and his partner, but she had and now here she was playing the part of Conan’s adopted sister.
As she sighed a third time Shinichi, aka Conan, opened the door to the office and found her. Conan eyed the girl laying on the couch and thought about going back upstairs instead of entering the room, but after seeing the haunted look on her face he decided it was time to do something about her. There was only so long anyone could stand having someone so gloomy around. Conan had an idea of what might help so he quickly hunted out his soccer ball and returned to the room.
