Where Angels Fear to Tread:
A/n: HOLY CHRIST! I'm writing a Joint venture, Collaborating with someone is fun, but enough about that. This story is based on an RP that myself and Black Phantom 1412 have been doing, sure this first chapter is short but it's one of the chapters that sort of introduces what happens to Kaito and how he and Shinichi end up the way they are! Later chapters shall include stuff of a sexual nature that will be written by me and me alone (only because I wanted to have some variety hence the rated M-ness of this fic...so please enjoy! Now for the start of "Where Angels Fear to Tread!" by Lyndsi and Black Phantom!
Shinichi chased KID up the staircase murmuring something like "stupid traps" dodging another one of them before getting to the rooftop.
"Meitantei, sure took your time." KID said with a grin, as he started throwing the jewel he had stolen up in the air and catching it.
"I'm sorry, I got caught in one of the traps on the stairs." Hakuba said as he was taking deep breaths to calm down.
Shinichi looked at KID and walked closer to him, smirk on his face. "You could give me the jewel so I can take you in now." He said with a grin.
KID laughed lightly, "Nah, that doesn't sound as fun as watching my meitanteis chasing after me." He said staying rooted to the spot.
Shinichi looked down and blushed a little trying to save his dignity. He looked up. "Don't be stupid."
"Just give the damn jewel back!" Hakuba said sounding incredibly agitiated.
"Temper, temper tantei-san, no need to be rude now."
This was said as Nakamori finally made it up the stairs. "He's up here, come on." He yelled as Shinichi thought of several things he could say to KID, none of them good.
Hakuba turned to see Nakamori standing in the doorway, "Nakamori's here you should probably just give up."
KID grinned, looking at them, faking a faint hand over his heart. "Oh, you've come, I'm ever so flattered."
Nakamori stared at him getting extremely irritated. "DON'T GIVE US THIS CRAP!"
Shinichi moaned something about how he was being a dramatic bastard.
Hakuba tried making a grab for the jewel, "Quit being an idiot, and give it here."
Kid jumped back with his signature grin, and with a snigger he said, "Ah, ah no grabbing." Nobody seemed to notice the gunman on the other building, pointing a gun at Kaito's heart.
"KID, if you give me the jewel, I'll let you go." Shinichi lied blatantly.
Hakuba looked defeated as he saw KID grin, then a whistle noise was heard, the dropping of the jewel. The two boys and Nakamori looked up, KID was swaying, blood blossoming from his chest.
"KID!" The two boys yelled as Nakamori just stared, Hakuba and Shinichi went to grab him before he fell, but they failed and Kid dropped over the side of the building, his cape flying out behind him.
Nakamori who was also shocked, but he was the first to act. "Okay, everyone hurry, get some men on the ground to search, the others, go to the other building."
Hakuba and Shinichi stared at the place where KID was standing not five minutes before, joking and playing with them. It took them a good minute to register what Nakamori had said, and with that they went down to search the ground.
THE VOID:
Kaito groaned as he thought inwardly to himself, "What happened?" Picking up one of his hands he inwardly thinking again, "Seems I can move my hands, which means I wasn't arrested. Oh my god, did I fail? I don't feel hurt though."
Kuroba Toichi watched his son with an almost sad case of fascination, his expression giving everything away. "Kaito." He whispered.
Kaito's eyes widened, he bolted up incredibly fast, knowing he had heard a ghost. "Tousan?"
Toichi looked at Kaito and genuinely smiled, "Its been awhile."
Kaito still confused looked at his father, more like gawked at him before he could get words out. "How, Tousan..what happened?"
Toichi looked down at the black ground as he started to explain. "Kaito, you were shot in the heart, Snake finally got you." He said softly as he pointed to the pure white wings, except the tips which were cadet blue, "You're an angel now."
Kaito looked behind him and yelped as he stared at the wings. "Does this mean.." he paused, "I'm dead?"
"KAITO, look at me. I need you to calm down okay? There's a task you need to fulfill before you can get into Heaven. Well, at least properly."
"...Accepted?" Kaito asked as he was letting the 'Guess what you're really truly dead' bit stick in his head a little more.
Toichi looked at him and grinned, "I've been sent here to help you make your choice, you'll either stay here in the void between Heaven and Earth, or you can be accepted in Heaven as an equal."
Kaito carefully looked at his father as he knew what was going to happen couldn't be good. "It's no question, what do I have to do?"
Toichi grinned at the boy's eagerness to complete the said task. "Its not going to be easy Kaito, in fact it took me two years to complete it.
Kaito just stared at him waiting for him to give the task uninterrupting.
"You have to fall in love." He said matter-a-factly.
"WHAT!"
"You heard me, you have to fall in love."
Kaito sputtered, "W..but you just saying that is all fine amd good but..."
Toichi was trying not to laugh as he asked,"Do I hear a slight nervousness in your voice Kaito?"
The poker face that Kaito was trying to keep had been faltering for quite some time. "Of course not! Its just hard to take in is all!"
"I'm sorry to throw this at you like this, but that's the condition to get accepted Kaito, you have to fall in love with someone."
Kaito's wings shifted, "So, I just get sent back, with THESE?"
Toichi just bursted out laughing at this question. "No, you'll be glamoured or in a form of someone else, so they'll be hidden from the public."
"So they'll be invisible then? What'll happen of someone touches them?"
"You may not want anyone to touch them...they're extremely sensitive."
Kaito stared, "You mean there's no way to hide them?"
"You can will them away, but tucking them away is easier, but if you master the willing away bit I think you're good."
Kaito nodded, attempting to stand to stand buckling under the weight of the wings.
"You'll get used to them, took me forever. Flying with them, absolutely fantastic."
"Can I kinda learn how to walk with them first, before we speak of flying?"
Toichi's mind went back to when he told Chikage he was an angel. "I took your mom flying once."
Kaito stopped attempting to walk at this moment. "Wait, when you met mom you were already..."
"No, I did die 8 years ago, I had to use a proper glamour."
"Um, so did you come here the night you were killed then go back or something?"
"I learned how to use and keeping my wings hidden here."
"Do I have to stay here for long?" Kaito asked.
Toichi looked at Kaito, " You can leave whenever, I hope you find what you're looking for."
Kaito looked at his father one last time before willing himself back to Earth...and this is how our story begins...
