~ The Museums' Corporate Building ~
- Midnight -
Around a massive skyscraper people of all ages swarmed to see one the most spectacular of all sights imaginable… a robbery in progress.
Police cars, helicopters, motorcycles, and yes even bikes surrounded the massive building along with thousands of people and news casters waiting to lay eyes on the Legendary Thief in the middle of one of his infamous heists. But wait, where is the one and only person who always comes to his heists' just to cheer for the police…
Inside the skyscraper on the 56th floor a young man donned in a cape, materialized out of the darkness. The room was completely empty, except for a pedestal that stood at the very center. Atop it rested a fist sized diamond that's only source of protection was a thin glass case. He turned to the wall of windows and sighed as he watched a massive cloudbank roll in front of the moon. His shoulders slouched ever so slightly, but he quickly regained his lost bravado as he spun back to face the task at hand. "There you are my beauty~…" sung the phantom clad in white as he gazed at The Hope diamond on tour from The Smithsonian Museum."What luck that your last stop before you head home would be in my humble country." he purred softly.
"Not this time ya' damn THIEF!" shouted a furious police inspector as he came down out of the ceiling. "Now men, grab 'em!" he called with anticipation. Unfortunately for inspector Nakamori nothing happened, it remained absolutely silence. The now disgruntled inspector looked around for the men that were supposed to be bull rushing KID.
"I have already used knockout gas on the men that you had hiding in the fake walls." said KID with his know-it-all smirk. KID moved closer to the glass case that protected the diamond and snapped his fingers. Then with a puff of soft pink smoke inside the case the diamond vanished, just to reappear in the gloved hand of the notorious thief Kaitou Kid. "Sorry to ruin your fun inspector, but I have to fly." and with that KID turn away from the awestruck inspector and headed towards the windows.
"But how… that case… it was vacuumed sealed?"
"But with magic, of course." KID replied and with that he jumped through the window and engaged his hang glider. Within seconds KID had dissolved into the night sky.

- 12:10 a.m. -
A furious young girl with messy brown hair paced across a bridge. She appeared to be angry and agitated as she paced from her bike that was leaning against a low wall to a lamppost on the other side of the bridge. 'I can't think of a reason why, Kaitou Kid of all people would want to talk to me let alone tell me about who he is.' Aoko thought as she paced. 'Which means this letter I have has to be a fake, because there is absolutely no way KID would want anything to do with me. Argh, why am I even HERE! He's not gonna show, so I didn't have to sneak out and I didn't have to bring this.' she looked down at the small caliber derringer she was holding. 'I mean what was I even gonna do with this if KID showed up. I can't shoot a gun; I can't even aim for that matter.' She had gone back to pacing, but suddenly the alarm on her watch pulled her from her reverie. She glanced at the digital readout - 12:11 one minute before he should appear, so she the darted back to her bike and ducked behind the wall to wait. As she waited for that one single minute to tick by she thought back to the note that she had found stuck to the inside of her bedroom window this morning. . .
'On the twelfth minute after I have seized my prize
I wish to tell you the truth and nothing but the truth.
Meet me on the last canal bridge before the rise
And fall of the sea and I will tell you my sad truth.'
- Kaitou Kid (imagine his picture)
Then as her clock's readout changed from 12:11 to 12:12, a figure glided down and landed without a sound on the bridge. She couldn't quite see the person who landed, but she knew exactly who stood on the bridge with his cape flowing in the breeze. Then the clouds that had been blocking the full moon opened up to create a spotlight illuminating the bridge and the phantom thief standing on it. She was in complete awe at the spectacle before her, she had never been that close to him before and from where she crouched she could clearly see that he could not be as old as everyone seems to think he was. 'Wow he looks like he's my age and he's just… wow, there is just no other way to put it. I can't believe that this angelically handsome phantom thief wants to talk to me personal…' she thought as a light blush crept across her cheeks. 'No, no, no I can't be pulled in by his looks he's a demon and a thief nothing more. Now focus, I need to think of a pl-' but she was cut off mid thought when KID quietly said "Damn, it's still not the right one." She refocused on him just in time to watch him lower the huge diamond from his eye and slip it back into his pocket.
"You don't have to hide, you know." said KID just loud enough for her to hear.
"And why is that?"
"Come now Miss, do you really think that I could harm a pretty little gem like you."
She sighed as she stood, then she walked onto the bridge, but said nothing.
"See isn't that better, you look much better in the light than you do in the dark." he said with a hint of sadness in his voice.
"Why did you really call me here because there is no way that you are actually going to tell me who you are? And don't try to kidnap me, I am armed." she said in a flat voice as she raised the gun to point at him. She took several small steps closer to him as she spoke. That way she could have her back to a lamppost to help block sneak attacks and she'd have a closer target just in case he tried anything funny.
"Well I am hurt, to think that you would bring such a scaring thing to our little peace meeting." KID said in a fake hurt voice, his signature smirk smeared across his face.
"What did you expect from an inspector's daughter?" she said with a hint of venom.
KID moved his gaze to the sky as he watched the moon being swallowed back up by the clouds sending them into yellowish streetlight. "Truthfully," he said "I though you would bring officers. Quite, a lot of them actually."
That struck a chord deep in Aoko's heart 'To think that thieving jerk didn't trust me.' "Well, now I am hurt." she spat out. "You jerk! I can't believe you didn't trust me! I mean weren't you the one who said you wanted to tell me 'the truth'?".
"My deepest apologies, Miss I had not meant to hurt you in any way. I was just telling you the truth as you said before." he said with a low flamboyant bow and just a hint of mockery in his voice. "Now if you want to find out who I am, you need to come with Me." as he spoke he stretched his hand out to her.
"Why can't you tell me here?" she asked slightly nervous.
"Can't you hear the sirens coming closer, we must leave immediately if we don't wish to be seen." he said as he moved closer.
"No, no this is perfect, all I have to do is keep you hear until my dad shows up." and with that she leveled her gun with his chest. "Now, don't move. I really don't want to have to shoot you." she said uncomfortably. 'What am I doing? This feels very wrong; I shouldn't point a gun at him. I mean it's not like he's killer he's just a very flamboyant and idiotic robber.' she thought.
"Believe me Miss, I really don't want to be shot, but I am afraid I can't wait around for the inspector to show up." he said as he pulled out his card gun. "It's time to go to sleep, Aoko." he whispered and pulled the trigger sending a card into the lamppost right by her head. But, the sound of KID's card gun going off frightened Aoko and she jerked. At the exact same time the ace of spades KID had shot into the lamppost, released its white knockout gas into Aoko's faces.
The last thing she heard was KID's distant sounding shout of pain before everything went silent. The last thing she thought was 'What have I done?' before she fell into unconsciousness. The last thing she saw was a spray of blood as KID fell back in pain before everything went black.
The sound of a gun fire echoed down the silent street, but the sound of a man's howl could be heard for blocks.
I can't wait for people to review! XD
