The Temptation of Failure, and the Agony of Defeat

A/N: This story idea came to me when me and a friend were writing Heiji being a BO member (though nobody knew it) and trying to coerce Kaito into joining their cause in any way necessary. This idea kinda swapped when I read the story "For Your Entertainment" for my umpteenth time (because I absolutely ADORE the idea of evil Shinichi) and decided to pull something different out of this Heiji/Kaito that I originally planned by making it KaiShin instead... I hope you enjoy. The full title is The Temptation of Failure, the Agony of Defeat, and the Triumph of Victory.

Prologue: Kaito's Defeat

Kaito's eyes fell closed when he put the gem up to the moon as he realized that he failed again. "I know you're here Shinichi." He said as he looked away from the gem to see Kudo Shinichi, dressed in an all black suit, minus the tie, that was cerulean blue, to match his eyes.

"Kaito," he said looking into his amethyst eyes. "You know we can help you look for it, why don't you join me so I can help you?"

"I won't join an organization that killed the one person that I actually cared for, and took my favorite critic away from me." He said softly slouching to the floor of the roof they were currently on.

"Kaito, you know that I have ways that I can make you join us, ways that will make you want to. I can help you find what you're looking for, my partner was killed, and I need a new one."

"Are you threatening me, Shinichi, or should I say Merlot now?"

"This is an informal meeting Kaito, you could even call me your beloved Shin-chan if you want."

"My Shin-chan wouldn't have gone to join an organization that tried to have him killed!" Kaito screamed as a tear ran down his face. This is the first time that Shinichi had ever seen Kaito mad, like properly mad, poker face gone, body rigid, "They stole my Shin-chan away from me, made him evil, made him do things he wouldn't have ever done as a Meitantei! YOU ARE NOT MY SHIN-CHAN!"

"I'm still your Shin-chan." He said softly.

"No, no you're not! You've killed people, I've seen you shoot down and kill people. I've seen you use unorthodox torture techniques, damnit Shinichi, what the hell did they do to you?"

Shinichi then picked Kaito up and threw him up against the wall in which he was leaning against earlier. "They just taught me what I needed to know to get the stuff I wanted." He said into his ear, making Kaito feel slightly uncomfortable. "Do you still love me Kaito?" he asked suckling his ear slightly.

"I just want my Meitantei back." He whimpered into his touch. "I want the man I fell in love with to come back to me, with that annoying bowtie, and the watch that could screw me over, I just want…." Kaito couldn't finish his sentence, his neck was being attacked by the mouth of his former love, the man he still loves, but is afraid to admit it to him, now being a member of the organization that had screwed him over royally. "Shin-chan." He whimpered.

"So sensitive still, how would you feel if I did this?" he said undoing their ties and tying Kaito's hands and feet together so he couldn't flee.

Kaito knew this technique he's seen Shinichi use it on countless women, the downside to that, most of the said women were dead, still naked from the night before's activities the next day. "Why are you so nervous Kaito?" he asked noticing Kaito's uneasiness.

"You're going to kill me like those other women you did this too aren't you?" tears running down his face again.

"Not if you do what I say, if you don't I'm going to do some wicked things to you until your body is literally nothing, and then I'll hide you so that you'll never be found, technically that's not my job, but for you I'll make an exception. You have a choice Kaito, either join us, or die."

Kaito's head went down, his face defeated, "Finei'lljoinyou." He mumbled.

"Say again?" Shinichi said with a bit of a smile.

"I'll join you, you murderous bas…." Again he didn't get to finish his sentence because for that mere moment the kiss he had just been pulled into, reminded him so much of his Shin-chan.

I'll destroy the organization from the inside. Kaito thought triumphantly to himself. I just hope it works…
