It was a usual day for Detective Hiragi and Detective Tatsumi…until a heist notice was announced.
Their notorious thief duo is at it again. The note says: Hi Tantei-san and Tantei-kun! Meow! It's time to play! Our playground is, as usual, the museum. We're going to take some very shiny things! Your colours are blue and teal. Good luck. Catch us if you can!
Black Phoenix & Hoshi-Neko
Sighing, Hiragi and Tatsumi go off to try and catch them. They had escaped capture so far, but not this time!
Hiragi had to admit, while Black Phoenix was good at stealing and Hoshi-Neko good at escaping, if they were to be separated, they were easy targets. That was the usual plan with trying to catch them anyway.
At the museum….
The plan was per usual. Separate them, and capture one at a time. Hiragi and Tatsumi share a quick kiss for good luck, then go to their assigned positions.
Tatsumi was guarding one of the targets, a topaz when Hoshi-Neko appeared.
"Hi, Tantei-kun! Will you play with me?" Hoshi-Neko playfully asks.
Tatsumi smiles, "Sure, Neko-chan."
Hoshi-Neko smirks, "Let's play tag then!"
And off they went with an intense game of tag. However, Hoshi-Neko was too quick, grabbing the gem and running to the roof, Tatsumi not far behind.
Meanwhile, with Hiragi guarding the other target, a sapphire, when Black Phoenix appeared.
"Hi, Tantei-san. Shall we play?" Phoenix asks politely.
Hiragi's glasses flash, "Of course."
Phoenix smiles, "Then, let's play."
Both made a move to grab the gem, Phoenix only a second faster than Hiragi. Phoenix started running to the roof to meet up with Hoshi-Neko, Hiragi following closely behind him.
On the roof, both Hoshi-Neko and Phoenix met up, side-by-side, with the detectives blocking the stairs, panting.
"You won't get away this time!" Hiragi and Tatsumi shout after they had caught their breath.
Neko and Phoenix looked at each other amused, then ran to the edge of the roof and jumped.
Hiragi and Tatsumi ran to the edge, only to see Phoenix flying in his hang glider, Neko holding on tight to him.
As they escaped, Black Phoenix and Hoshi-Neko kiss, the targets in their pockets.
"We'll get you next time!" Tatsumi and Hiragi yell at the same time. They smile at each other, and kiss again.
A few weeks later, the targets were mysteriously returned, a note saying: We had so much fun! Let's play some more next time! See you!
Black Phoenix & Hoshi-Neko
Tatsumi and Hiragi could only shake their heads, smiling.
