Conan realises that he is actually awake. He can hear faint voices in the background. Feeling stiff, he stretches, and realises that he can touch both ends of the bed. His eyes fly open. The first thing he sees, after his vision clears, is Kaito's ecstatic face.

"Shin-chan, you are awake" he says.

Conan smiles at Kaito, and raises one hand to the ceiling. Squinting past the light, he realises that his hand is bigger and further away. Conan sits up, and looks at the rest of his body. Shinichi gasps and hugs Kaito. "I'm back! I'm really back." He whispers into Kaito's shoulder.

"Good morning Shinichi-san." Says Shoichi walking into the room. Spanner follows him, and offers Shinichi a lollipop. "Coffee flavoured" he states.

Kaito smiles, most likely having told Spanner of Shinichi's love of Coffee. And the lollipop tasted exactly like Shinichi's favourite cup of coffee.

"The transformation went perfectly. Everything returned to its normal size correctly. There are no broken or fractured bones, no torn ligaments or muscles, and all nerves seem to be connected correctly." Shoichi recites off of the clipboard he's holding.

"There is a special program that I installed into the Nano-bots." Says Spanner, standing next to Shinichi, on the opposite side of the bed to Kaito. "If you say "Command C", then the Nano-bots will stop working until you say "Command S". This allows you to switch between your two forms for missions and things. Gokudera suggested it when he came to check up on us. Apparently it would be good for infiltrations and information gathering. It's keyed into your voice specifically, and reacts to vibrations in your throat. That way, no one else can force you to transform. Not even Mr Thief there who can copy your voice. The transformation will take place within a minute, and the transformation should be less painful than the first time. The same applies the other way too." Explains Spanner.

"You'll need a few days to get used to your body, but after that, you'll be as good as you should be. But remember that you will return to your child form after about 6-7 hours. Also you can turn back to your adult form after you let the nano-bots rest for about 1 hour. So basically you will be Shinichi for the whole day if you let the nano-bots rest once." Smiles Shoichi.

No one sees the pair for the next two days.

Nor do Ryohei and Yamamoto do any training. It seems that the elevator has decided not to go down to those floors. Security cameras show that nothing is in the training room.

Apart from that, both Spanner and Shoichi refuse to fix it, saying that they are too busy.

Tsuna has reports from the maids and kitchen staff that items of clothes, linen, as well as items of food and drink have gone missing from the stores.

By Thursday, Tsuna finally has some free time to go and check the incident out for himself.

As the elevator takes him down to the training room, Tsuna and Gokudera wonder what all the fuss was about.

The doors open and infront of them is Shinichi and Kaito. Kaito is dressed in a white suit, with a black shirt and a white tie. Shinichi is dressed in the opposite, in a black suit, with a white shirt and a black tie. Seeing Tsuna and Gokudera step out of the elevator, the pair walk over.

Kneeling infront of Tsuna, they say "Kuroba Kaito and Kudo Shinichi, ready and reporting for duty, Boss."
