A/N: This is my first time writing a Detective Conan fanfiction so it's very possible that the characters are OOC and that grammar... needs some work... Anyways I won't take up to much time so...

Disclaimer: I do not own Detective Conan or Magic Kaito characters, settings, etc. they belong to Gosho Aoyama the wonderful creator of both series!

Anyways on with the show!

The shot rang clear through the night. The thief in white looked down, pain not quite registering; There was another shot and he felt the force push him backwards. He stared wide-eyed as he tripped over the low protective barrier surrounding the building. With blood-soaked hands he fell, shock breaking through his poker face. The gem that he had been about to put in the air fell with him. The moonlight struck it as a voice shouted from above. As the thief's thoughts faded he could hear a name, his real name, which seemed to resonate through the area. He opened his eyes one last time to see a face so much like his own; a hand reaching over the edge as others held him back. The voice shouted into the clear, cold night air, a heart-wrenching and painful scream.

"SHINICHI!"

Kaito Kuroba smirked as the class shouted in outrage. All of them, besides him and a creepy red haired female, seemed to be suspended half-way in the air; The desks moving as if possessed, or on a rollercoaster ride. The red haired girl looked at him with a slightly raised eyebrow; the delicate curving of the eye would have captivated men throughout the room, if they had actually seen her. Kaito just ignored the expression.

"KKKAAIITTOOOOO!" His smirk grew even wider.

"I noticed that their pink stripped today! Though I must admit, they don't really suit you." The girl, who had just yelled, Aoko, grew bright red, anger simmering in her eyes.

"Kaito! You pervert!" she shouted jumping from her chair and swinging a mop, which had appeared out of nowhere, at the boys head. Kaito easily dodged jumping over the desk to avoid the deadly mop.

"Ahoko, you're slow! With that speed you'll never catch me!" he dodged again doing a cartwheel to get away from the rampaging girl. Meanwhile the red haired girl stiffened; she glanced around, a small frown appearing on her lips. "So… it's beginning." She whispered to herself, unheard by the rest of the class. She looked over at Kaito who was sticking out his tongue at the other girl while doing a jump split, avoiding the dangerous weapon. She narrowed her eyes at the boy, who paused slightly as if he sensed something. Kaito glanced at the red haired girl and their eyes met, a moment that was broken when he felt a weight fall onto his back and a scream echo through the room.

Kaito fell forward, his poker face slipping in surprise as he collapsed with a thud to the ground. He could feel something heavy on his back.

"Ow…." He muttered to himself.

"…K…Kaito…" He looked up to see Aoko's face pale as she stared at whatever was on his back. He blinked then felt something soak through his shirt. His eyes narrowed instantly. He knew that feeling; it wasn't foreign to him, even though he wished it was. Slowly he looked back.

"Quick call the ambulance and the police!" a voice shouted. Kaito knew that voice; it was the blond haired detective, Hakuba.

"Kaito, don't look back, at least wait until Aoko and I say so." The blonde ordered. Kaito blinked confused. With that one statement his curiosity was piqued even more, he wanted to know what it was. Not one to follow orders, or wait patiently for others, he looked back to see a boy. He had on a monocle just like kaitou kid would, but it had a black spade instead of the green clover and the surrounding was green, as if the coloring had been swapped. The clothes were very similar to his own Kaitou Kid outfit except for the fact that the hat was a short hat with a red ribbon around it and the undershirt was black with a red tie. The cape was nowhere to be seen, as if it had fallen, or been ripped off. The boy himself looked remarkably like him, his hair seemed more pristine than his wild locks and it was darker, but that was the only real difference; maybe height as well, but he couldn't really tell at that angle. His eyes widened as he saw blood dripping from the boy's mouth and he felt more seeping through his clothes.

As he was taking this all in Hakuba and a shocked Aoko were helping to take the boy off Kaito's back; Being careful not to hurt either of them. The rest of the room which had been silent for a second had erupted into panic. This made it harder for the other two to help the boy. Someone had called the ambulance and they could hear the sounds of a siren coming closer.

Kaito was finally able to struggle out from under the dead weight. As he got up to look back his eyes widened even more. From being under the boy he hadn't been able to see the wound, but now that he did he was shocked. There were two bullet wounds; one was in the gut which would explain why he felt the blood on his back. The other was right above the heart. The boy was unconscious and his breathing was shallow.

Kaito rushed forward and instinctively ripped off some cloth to stop the bleeding, Hakuba was doing the same thing, careful not to press too hard on the wound, since it seemed like the bullets might still be lodged in the body. Aoko ran outside while the teacher tried to calm the students, directing them out the door of the classroom and helping those who fainted due to the blood. Aoko quickly came back followed by the paramedics; who hurriedly analyzed the scene. Within seconds the boy was on a gurney heading towards the ambulance. Around the same time the police officer, who had also come, walked into the room.

"So can you tell me what happened?" the man asked the girl who was still in the room; He was not that panicked since the boy in question was heading towards the hospital.

Aoko looked around to see where Kaito was, since the whole scenario pertained to him. However she didn't see either the brunette prankster or the blonde detective.

"Well, it looks like Kaito-kun has run off, so why don't we explain what happened Ms. Nakamori?" The red head said flipping her hair behind her ear.

"Akako! Thank you I can't believe Kaito ran off like that." She huffed then looked at the man.

"Anyways, it began with…"

"What are you doing here?"

"I could ask the same for you. That body simply fell on you, I don't see why you would be following him… unless you're wondering why someone is impersonating you?"

"For one I have no idea what you're talking about and for two I am worried, who wouldn't be in that situation?"

"Are you sure you just didn't want to talk to the police?"

"We're trying to save a patient here, if you don't have anything helpful to say then please be quiet!" a man glared. He had hurriedly discarded the shirt, monocle and hat and had quickly attached tubes and IVs to the patient, while another worked to help stem the bleeding.

The two who had been talking shut up for a second, annoyance evident on their faces; Hakuba glanced at the boy next to him. The boy's poker face was up but it wasn't very sturdy, one could easily tell the boy was shaken. Hakuba could understand, it isn't often that a body, with bullet wounds, fall on you in the middle of a closed of classroom. He glanced forward to look at the boy on the gurney feeling the ambulance jolt slightly as it went over a large bump. The boy looked familiar, if you ignored the fact that he looked shockingly like Kaito. He frowned, trying to pinpoint where he had seen that face before. Then suddenly the ambulance stopped and the doors opened. The patient was rushed out and, before he even realized, Kaito had disappeared along with the doctors. The blonde got up to follow and then his eyes widened. Of course! No wonder he didn't remember, he had only really seen him in newspapers and that was months ago, that was the face of Shinichi Kudo, the famous high school detective that had gone missing recently! He ran after the group with a frown on his face. 'Why did he suddenly appear now? And why did his outfit look so much like Kaito's? Who shot him, where was he shot?' there were so many questions going through his mind, but none of them seemed to want to be answered. Usually he would have stayed at the scene, but his intuition was telling him he wouldn't find out anything there. He trusted his intuition and he believed it, especially since it had seemed like the boy had appeared out of thin air. He caught up with Kaito just as the gurney was pushed through the emergency room doors.

Kaito sat down wondering why he was so worried. He felt himself shake slightly and wondered whether the air conditioning was up to high. The blonde detective was sitting next to him, a knowing look in his eyes. Kaito frowned; he had recognized the boy pretty quickly, since said boy had almost captured him once at the clock tower heist. He frowned behind his poker face. 'Akako knows something, she always does and this time when she looked… it wasn't a look I normally see, she was actually worried… her eyes... she had also mentioned something about… beginning. I guess I'm going to have to bother her after I find out if the detective survived. Talking about detectives, why am I so worried about him again?...' He shook his head slightly and then got up.

"I think I'm going to wash off, this blood isn't exactly comfortable you know." Hakuba raised an eyebrow then nodded, arms crossed and one leg over the other, waiting patiently.

The thief got up and walked away. After acquiring a new set of clothes he walked into the bathroom. He quickly stripped his shirt off and wiped down what he could of his back; after that he put on the new outfit and sighed in relief. He walked over to the sink and turned on the water. He splashed his face and neck, still feeling like their was traces of blood on him. Looking up he could see the mirror, reflecting the face of the boy; dull blue eyes stared back at him as blood dripped from his mouth.

Kaito quickly splashed his face again.

The next time he looked up all he saw was himself. He sighed. Maybe he needed some sleep. He hadn't gotten a good night's rest for a while, seeing as he had just recently finished a heist the night before. And he had been up every night preparing for it. He closed his eyes and breathed out slowly.

He had always hated seeing someone in pain, especially after he lost his father; but the fact that the boy looked so much like him, during a Kaitou Kid heist, didn't really help matters. He gripped the edge of the sink his poker face twitching slightly; what had happened? Why had he fallen on him? How did he even get into the classroom? The boy closed his eyes then looked up. The mirror reflected his eyes which held fierce determination. He was going to find out what had happened, he couldn't let it rest, and from the look of the blonde detective, he wouldn't be able to either.

'Well, isn't this interesting, a thief becoming a detective?' he thought, chuckling at the idea.

He walked out and sat next to the blonde detective, ideas forming in his mind already. The blonde looked at him, bemused.

The thief just ignored him, staring at the ER door. He sighed. He was determined to figure something out, but that didn't mean he was suddenly able to patiently wait. He frowned, leg already thumping on the floor in impatience as the blonde next to him continued to wait. The two sat their in differing levels of anticipation and annoyance... It was going to be a long day.
