Instead of watching what the teacher was doing up on the board Kaito was, in fact, looking at the phone he had his underneath his desk. He wanted to be as prepared as he could for his "performance" tonight. The teen chuckled as he saw Nakamori looking right at the camera yelling at the reporter about how this was going to be the night that the Phantom Thief was going to be caught. Kaito started to giggle in class. He knew this was going to end the same way it always does. He was going to easily grab the jewel right from under Nakamori's nose. Suddenly, he looked up as he heard a cough and looked to his right. Aoko was glaring at him, nodding towards the teacher. He just smiled a big grin and turned back to watching the news.

As the day wore on Kaito noticed out of the corner of his eye odd glances Hakuba was giving Akoko. He watched as Hakuba would try and get the witch's attention, but she would just ignore him. When the bell rang Hakuba got up and approached her. She didn't even give him a second look as she turned on her heel and walked out the door. Hakuba's shoulders sagged a little as he slowly walked out of the classroom.

"What was that about?" The magician asked his best friend, who was also watching the scene unfold.

"I'm not entirely sure." Aoko replied as she grabbed her school bag. "Ready?" She asked. Kaito nodded and both walked out of the door towards home.

Kaito entered his house. At first glance there was nothing special about it. The entryway and the living room were attached. On one wall sat a table with a mirror attached to the wall. On the table were a bunch of photos of a young family. A husband and wife standing beside each other with a small boy in front of them. All three smiling like they don't have a care in the world. In the middle of the room sat a sofa in front of a large tv. By the only window in the room sat a desk with a laptop on it.

Kaito walked up past the living room, up the stairs and into his own room. At first glance it looked like a normal teen's room complete with mess. The oddest item in the room was a life sized picture of a magician on the wall opposite of the bed. Kaito walked up to the picture and gave it a firm push. The photo spun around and Kaito entered the secret room. He started getting ready for the job tonight. he could feel the excitement start to build in his gut. Jii was out of the country tonight so that meant he was solo for this performance. Didn't matter, he had completed jobs on his own before. However, tonight he wished he had backup in case something went wrong. He knew all of his backup plans were in place. So were his backup, backup plans. Still it didn't help his uneasiness.

It was almost time for the heist to take place. On top of a nearby skyscraper a person dressed in white was surveying the busy scene below him. Kaito chuckled as he looked through his binoculars into a large building that was made entirely of glass. Lots of people were walking through, but what caused him to chuckle was the sight of the pint sized detective. Conan was walking along with Ran Mori and Sonoko Suzuki. The small group had walked up to the item the Kid had marked for tonight. Right in the middle of the of the room was a huge diamond inside a simple glass case.

Inside the building Conan was studying the diamond with great interest as Ran held him up, her arms rapped around his middle. The diamond had a purple shine that almost glowed inside the glass case.

"I can't believe how beautiful the diamond is." Ran observed, squeezing Conan a little more. This caused him to blush slightly.

"This diamond is on loan from a friend from Canada." Suzuki explained. Conan jumped down and walked over to the window and looked out. It was calm but inky outside, a perfect night for Kaito to use his glider. All of a sudden Conan saw the reflection of a beautiful girl at the back of the room. The girl approached him and bent down so their eyes were level with each other.

"What is your name?" She asked in a smooth voice. Conan could feel his face redden.

"Edogawa C-Conan." He shuddered. The beautiful girl leaned in and whispered in his ear.

"I can help you, defeat kid."

"What do you get out of it?" Asked Conan equal parts intrigued and suspicious.

"He's up on the roof of this building. Go now or Kid will run." Conan' eyes naturally followed the girl's hand which were pointing to a fire escape. The pint sized detective turned back and saw that the strange girl had disappeared. He looked around the room but she seemed to have disappeared. 'Shit she's fast.' He thought to himself.

"Conan is something wrong? Ran walked over wondering what Conan was looking for.

"Nothing Ran." Conan replied in a high pitched tone. "I have to use the bathroom."

"Alright but hurry back soon. Kid will be appearing in about 5 minuets." Ran turned back to listen to the other adults.

Kid watched as Conan waved to Ran and disappeared through the fire escape. He didn't know what Akako had said to him, but apparently he was now heading up to the roof. Kid got up from his spot and glided to the roof of the building where the diamond was in. He decided the best course of action was to forget the heist tonight and focus on what Akako was up to.

Kid was the way to the building when Conan burst through the door. Conan looked around until he laid eyes on the thief. Conan smiled and ran towards kid readying his watch to fire the sleeping dart and finally take kid down. Kaito felt a little uneasy when he touched down onto the edge of the roof. Conan only made it to the middle of the roof when a sudden a bright red light flashed and Kaito looked on in shock. Regaining his senses, Kaito looked at the bright light. He couldn't believe what he was seeing. On a flat area on the roof Conan was standing with his jaw dropped, eyes wide opened. Kid looked in horror at Conan's feet as he saw a red magic circle glowing around him.

"Run! For goodness sake Run!" Kaito Screamed. Conan tried to, but he couldn't due to some invisible force rooting him in place. Kaito noticed that the small detective was trying his best to keep calm. He tried to pull Conan out of the circle, but as soon as the thief got to the perimeter of the circle he was pushed, and fell backwards. Apparently there was force field stopping from anyone entering.

"Conan!" Kaito shouted, scared of what was happening to the small detective. Kid slammed his hands against the force field as Conan looked up, and both locked eyes for a second. Conan winced as he saw Kid screaming. The detective closed his eyes, but no matter how much he concentrated he couldn't hear the thief. Conan tried to speak, but suddenly didn't have the energy. Conan's knees gave out and he sunk to the ground. He felt his eyes close as he felt his consciousness slowly drift away. Kid looked around and saw that there was an antenna he could climb up and jump from above. The thought being that maybe there was no force field above the circle. Kid knew he didn't have much time, and in his usual Phantom Thief flare he jumped to the antenna. Just as he got into position to jump the door to the roof flung opened. Ran, Sonoko, Uncle Suzuki, and Nakamori stared in shock as they saw an unconscious Conan inside a bright ring light. Before any of the individuals on the roof had time to react the light flashed brightly again, then faded. Kid lowered himself back to the roof as he saw he didn't have to jump anymore. He looked at the ground as the lines of the circle were now etched into the roof. Kid looked in the center to see Conan's clothes. He looked to the exit and saw that everyone still looked stunned at witnessing Conan just disappearing. As fast as the thief could he ran over and scooped up all the items dropped by Conan and turned to his audience.

"What is going on here?" Nakamori Shouted, still a little confused. Kaito just shrugged his shoulders and smiled a big grin as he didn't even know what was going on. He decided the best thing to do now was run for now and ask questions later. He threw a smoke capsule and disappeared over the edge of the roof gliding into the night.

Some time later when Kid was far enough away he laded on top of a high skyscraper and investigated the clothing some more. Sitting cross legged he inspected the items worn by the detective. Everything that the little detective was wearing before was here. As he inspected the white dress shirt Conan was wearing he noticed that there was something curled up inside. He unbuttoned the shirt to see a small kitten curled inside sleeping. He held the kitten up in front of his face to get a better look at it. The kitten was almost black in colour. It was small, about half the size of a full grown cat. The fur on the top of his head was long and sweeped to the side in the classic Edogawa hairstyle. The kitten was out cold but seemed unharmed. Kid felt a lump start to form in his throat as he was certain this was Conan. He also knew that Akako was the cause of this.

Kato spaced out as he tried to grasp at the whole gravity of the situation. For a few seconds the only words that were going through his mind was oh shit oh shit oh shit oh shit oh shit oh shit. Kato looked down at the small feline, and with no better plan he gently nudged it.

"Hey Conan Kun, are you alright?" The thief said softly. The kitten showed no sign of responding. "Kudo, hey Kudo come on." The Kid shook harder slightly trying to get the cursed boy to regain his senses. The kitten was still unresponsive, limp in his hands.
