I'm just bored 
'Troublemakers' is a combination of several short stories of the DC/MK characters when they were younger, written, of course, by me XD It's still in the progress though, and I've only completed Part One. I posted it in FanFiction.Net as well, but figured I'd post it here anyway

PART 1
The door swung open very slowly, stopping at every creak it made. A head poked out of the bedroom, looking around. Kudo Shinichi slipped his small body out, a mischievous smile on his face as he shut the door. He started to tiptoe down the hallway.
"Where are you going, Shin-chan?"
Shinichi froze. He turned and laughed nervously, looking up at his father. "O-ohayoo gozaimasu, Otou-san! Otou-san is up early!"
Kudo Yuusaku bent down so that his height leveled with Shinichi’s. "Yes, I just managed to finish up the last chapter early last night and got enough sleep. Now, don’t lie to me, Shin-chan…Otou-san is very good in deduction, you know, and I can see that you’re very nervous now."
"Otou-saaaaan," Shinichi whined.
"I’m only concerned, Shin-chan. It’s very dangerous outside, you never know what will happen. So, unless you tell me where you’re going, I won’t let you leave this house."
Shinichi tried to think up an excuse. He had to leave the house now, or he would be late. "I---I’m going---going to---"
"---Agasa’s house."
Shinichi blinked as Yuusaku turned to see who had answered. His wife, Yukiko, walked up to them with an amused smile on her face. As he stood up, she patted Shinichi’s head. "He just wants to play at Agasa’s like usual, isn’t that right, Shin-chan?" she said cheerfully.
"Ahh…umm…" Shinichi quickly nodded. "I want to play with Professor!"
"He doesn’t lie," Yukiko added, casting Yuusaku her most charming smile.
Yuusaku blushed. He could not bear to object Yukiko---after all, she was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen, and the smile always did its charm. "Okay…but don’t give the professor any trouble, okay?" he told Shinichi.
"Okay!" Shinichi chirped.
When Yuusaku was out of ear shot, Yukiko turned to Shinichi mischievously. "I see you’re going out with Ran-chan, right?"
Shinichi turned very red. "Don’t tell Otou-san, please!" he pleaded.
"Don’t worry, I won’t," Yukiko said with a wink. "It’s so cute to see both of you together! Make some progress, why don’t you?"
"Okaa-san, we’re only seven!"
Yukiko laughed as she led him towards the front door. "But it’s not too early! All right now, you will be late if you don’t hurry. Go get her, tiger!"
"Bye, Okaa-san!" Shinichi called with a wave before hurrying out. Yukiko just stood waving at the doorway, smiling.

"Otou-san, can I go out to play?" Mouri Ran asked, hopping in front of her father’s desk. Her father, Kogoro, could only see her head bobbing in and out of sight from where he was. His face was red---obviously drunk.
"I don’t know, ask your mother," Kogoro replied simply, picking up his cup. But before he could even take a sip, a hand reached out and snatched it away from him. "Oy!"
"That’s enough drinks for you," Eri Kiseki said sternly, taking the wine bottle away from him as well. Kogoro glared at her as she put the bottle in the cabinet and threw the leftover in the cup out of the window. She turned to her daughter. "Where are you going, Ran?"
"I’m just going out with my friend!" Ran chirped. "It won’t be long!"
Kogoro grunted. "Is it that Kudo kid again?"
"Umm, no…" Ran said in almost a whisper.
Eri picked up her bag. "Never mind, you can go out to play, Ran. Just don’t go too far and don’t get yourself dirty. By the time I come back, you better be back too. Understand?"
"Haaaaaai!" Ran squealed happily. She grabbed a little bag (which she always carried around) and rushed out.
Kogoro narrowed his eyes at Eri. "I can’t believe you let her go just like that."
"They’re only seven, what else can they do?" Eri replied, locking the cabinet where she put the wine in. She put the key in her purse. "At least Kudo-san’s son doesn’t act like you." Kogoro could only glare as his wife left.
---
"Ehh, what took you so long?" Shinichi asked, his hands behind his head as Ran ran up to him. He had been waiting in the park for only one minute, but he liked to tease her.
"It’s hard to get out of Otou-san, you know," Ran snapped, catching her breath.
"Well, you’re here! Let’s go then!"
Shinichi started to bounce ahead, heading out. "Hey, wait for me!" Ran shouted, rushing after him. Soon, they were walking side by side, Ran following Shinichi. "Where are we going?"
"I want to show you a very cool place I found not long ago!" Shinichi said gleefully. "I think I’m the only one who ever found it. You’ll like it!"
"It’s not dangerous, is it?"
"Nope! Why do you ask?"
"Because wherever you take me, we always end up almost getting lost or in trouble."
"But I won’t this time, I promise! Hey, wanna see something cool? I found it in Otou-san’s desk last night." Shinichi fished out an instrument from his pocket and showed it to Ran.
Ran peered at it. "What’s that?"
"A magnifying glass. Sherlock Holmes always uses it."
"Sharlog Homes?"
"Oh, I haven’t told you? Okaa-san told me Sherlock Holmes stories recently. He is a detective from London who is really, really cool! He can solve any crimes! And he also uses this!"
Ran frowned. "Detective again? Okay…what does this do anyway?"
"It can make things look big, like---" Shinichi looked around and saw a bush. He held the magnifying glass over a leaf. "Look!"
Ran leaned over to see. Showing on the magnifying glass, was a huge caterpillar. "EEEEEK!" she shrieked, jumping away quickly. "SHINICHI!"
Shinichi laughed. "Gotcha!"
"It’s NOT funny!" Ran punched him hard in the arm. Shinichi yelped, almost dropping the glass.
"Ehhh, that hurts!"
"That’s what you get for teasing me!"
Soon, they were climbing up a hill, Shinichi still leading the way. "Almost there!" he kept saying. He skipped ahead until he disappeared among some hedges.
Ran tried to catch up, but she was getting tired. When she reached where Shinichi disappeared, she could not see him anymore. "Shinichi? Where are you? Don’t leave me alone!" she exclaimed in panic.
"Over here, Ran!" Shinichi’s voice floated from the other side of the hedges.
Gingerly, Ran pushed the hedges aside and stepped through. She saw Shinichi crouched over the edge of a cliff. He pointed down. "Look!"
Ran walked over and peered down. She gasped in awe. "Sugoi!"
"I told you it’s worth it!" Shinichi said with a grin.
They were looking down at the most magnificent view of Tokyo city, even though it was still day time. The slope in front of them seemed dangerous though, and there was no guard rail to protect them. But at that moment, they were too engrossed in the scenery.
Just then, Ran’s bag slipped off her hand and tumbled a little way down the slope. "Ahh---my bag!" She tried to reach her hand down, but she could barely touch it.
"Ehhh, don’t! It’s too dangerous!" Shinichi exclaimed.
"I need to get it back!" Ran shrieked.
"Oh, come on, it’s only a silly bag! Nobody told you to bring it out too," Shinichi said as if he did not care.
"B-but Okaa-san will scold me if I don’t get it back!"
Ran was already in tears. Shinichi blinked. He bit his lip---and sighed. "All right, all right…I’ll get the bag," he muttered.
Ran stopped crying and watched as Shinichi started to slide down the slope very slowly, his arms spread out to balance himself. I can’t believe I’m doing this, he thought grumpily. But…at least she stopped crying. He glanced up at her worried face, and blushed a little. She looks better this way…
"Shinichi, watch out!" Ran shrieked.
His foot slipped. "Aik!" he exclaimed as he fell back and slid down a couple of feet. His feet hit a strong root that jutted out of the slope, and he immediately stopped. "T-that was close," he stammered. His heart was beating vigorously.
"Shinichi!" Ran screamed.
"I’m okay! Don’t move!" Shinichi shouted as he flipped his body so that his stomach was lying on the slope instead. The bag was only a foot above him. He inched upward little by little, his hand reaching out desperately for the bag. It seemed like forever before he finally seized it. "GOT IT!" he said happily, lifting it.
Ran squealed, clapping her hands. "Yattaa, yattaa!"
"Ehhh, I told you not to move---"
Too late. The soil gave way under Ran and she started to stumble. She shrieked in terror as she started to slide down. Shinichi quickly reached out his other hand, and managed to grasp her hand before she slid any further. She halted, her hand clutching Shinichi’s for dear life.
"Sh-Shinichi!" she cried.
"Calm down, Ran! It’s okay!" Shinichi shouted. "Just follow what I tell you to do!"
"B-but I’m scared!"
"Don’t be scared, Ran! I’m here with you!" he said with an encouraging smile. Ran gazed up at the trust in his eyes. They calmed her down instantly. Then, she nodded.
"All right. Now use your feet to feel for footholds. Slowly, don’t need to hurry!"
Ran felt around with her trembling foot until she finally found a solid place to step on. "D-don’t let go, Shinichi!" she wailed.
"I won’t! Come on, you can do it!"
