A/N: Eya! Next chappie! I just had to upload it before school begins, so here it is ^^ It's not a long one, but I'm pretty proud that I managed this much. Also, there are quite a few important things in this chapter, one being new characters introduced. So, I hope you like it ^^

Btw, somewhere at the end it says; Date, date date! This is japanese, meaning; but. Just so you don't read it the wrong way (it sounds better like that ^^)

Warning: OC's, Ooc (a little) and yaoi (there's some fluff in this chapter)

~~xXx~~

"Ne, Shinichi?" Kaito asked as he petted the dove on his chest.

"Hmmm?" The detective didn't look up from the book he was reading. It was two days after Shinichi told him about the whole vampire-thing. Two days after they had gotten back together – at least that was what Hattori kept saying, but Kaito refused to say he forgave the vampire. Though the latter used that as an excuse to do...things to him, a passionate kiss, a hug, always saying; "I'm just trying to make you forgive me," in that husky voice of his that sent shivers down his spine. Still, Kaito spent most of his free time in the Kudo mansion. At first it had been the two of them with Hattori, but yesterday a very pissed Kazuha had called asking where the hell he was. The Osakan had left immediatel, not wanting to anger the girl even more.

"You and Hattori are best friends, right?" Shinichi nodded. "But in most stories of vampires and werewolfs those two are enemies, aren't they? So how come you two aren't?" The vampire looked down at Kaito who was lying with his head on his lap, glaring just a little bit.

"I told you, stop comparing us with stories and movies. We're Shapeshifters, not a real vampire and werewolf." He huffed and went back to his book.

Kaito pouted, looking at the dove who put his head against his hand, trying to get attention. "So, is that also why you can still walk in the sun? Because you're still half-human?"

"I guess so." Kaito sighed. When Shinichi was caught up in a book there was no way to start a conversation with him. Kaito could make smokebombs explode all he wanted, paint the detective's hair green, put him in girl's clothing, move all the furniture in the house and he still wouldn't budge! He thought back to the time when he was little and his mother had ignored him almost a day, making calls all the time, being busy on a laptop. He eventually got so fed up with it that he made all the furniture in the house disappear – especially all phones and computers – then demanded Kaa-san to tell him why she was ignoring him. Ended up she had been planning a birthday party for him.

Now that he thought about his mother he should make it up to her. He felt sorry for not listening when she had obviously been right about Shinichi.

"He must have a good reason. He said he had one, didn't he?" His mother said after his story.

"Then why didn't he just tell me? Why did he just say goodb- he didn't even say goodbye! He just said sorry and that we can't be together! Why? He's going to have a damn good reason for this!" Kaito yelled. Chikage stood up and walked towards the door.

"Just try to get some sleep and don't give up to soon."

"Why would I, that damn bastard!"

"Kaito, you don't know what his reason is. Maybe you should try to figure that out before coming to conclusions." Kaito didn't listen to her.

He sighed once again. The white bird on his chest closed it's eyes as it got the brunt. "Don't." Shinichi suddenly said. The magician looked up at him blinking a few times. Azure eyes met his. "You've sighed two times in the past five minutes already. It's not like you." Kaito looked down then blinked some more, realising he had.

Suddenly he grinned playfully at Shinichi. "I guess you're just rubbing off on me." The latter only rolled his eyes before focussing them back on the book in his hands, making Kaito pout once more. "You know you still haven't told me." He continued. With a sigh the book was shut and put on the table as Shinichi knew he wasn't going to be able to focus any longer with Kaito in his lap.

"About what? I told you everything I know about...this." He said and pointed towards his sharp canines.

"Yes, but not about the night you put me to sleep as Hoodie-san." The vampire frowned before his face showed understanding.

He grinned. "You mean the night we had sex?"

A furious blush spread over the magician's face and he did his best to continue without stuttering. "Y-yes, that night. What happened after you put me to sleep? You said you were wounded, that's why you bit me, but on the rooftop I didn't notice any injury. So that means you got it after I was asleep, right?"

Shinichi furrowed his eyebrows and looked up towards the wall on the other side of the library. "I guess I really am rubbing off on you," he smirked, "You sound almost like a detective."

Kaito puffed his cheeks. "It's observation, nothing more." Shinichi just hummed while the smirk became a small smile.

"Yes, I was injured afterwards. That was the main reason why I put you to sleep. I noticed one of Snake's assassins coming and didn't want you to get involved in the fight, nor see it. The assassin ended up scratching my side, but I scared her off after that."

"I see," Kaito said, "talking about injuries I was pretty sure I had a cut on my shoulder, but that morning I couldn't find it anywhere. And you bit me, but I never found any marks of that either."

Shinichi nodded. "I noticed it lately that my saliva speeds up the healing process. So two small injuries like that could've been healed within a night." Kaito hummed as he felt how the detective unconsciously started stroking through his hair and massaging his head, making Kaito get drowsy from feeling. He looked up at the other through half-lidded eyes. Shinichi seemed to be deep in thought, the deep frown on his face being the evidence of that. What was he thinking about? "Kaito, tell me." Shinichi began, but stopped frowning even more, as if thinking if he should ask it or not. "You said Snake is a criminal looking for Pandora. What is that? Pandora, I mean. I tried to find out," he pointed at the book on the table. Only now did Kaito notice it was a book about Greek mythology, "Pandora was in Greek mythology a woman who was the first one to posses curiousity. She's also the one who opened a vase containing all the evil in the world." Kaito nodded.

"You're right. But what Snake is looking for is a gem called Pandora." Kaito said.

"A gem? Why a gem?" The vampire asked.

"Legend says that when a certain comet passes and Pandora is held towards the moonlight, it will shed a tear, granting the person drinking it immortality." Shinichi's ministrations stopped.

"Immortality?" he asked, "What does the gem look like?"

"The only thing I know about it is that it's a doublet and when it's held under the moonlight it should glow red." Kaito felt the detective's legs beneath his head tense. He looked up only to see Shinichi looking blank ahead. It took a while before he began to speak, but when he did the magician didn't hear anything out of the ordinary in his voice.

"So is that why you always held those gems up towards the moon?" Must have been his imagination then. Though Kaito couldn't shake the feeling that he was sure Shinichi was still tensed.

"Yeah," he answered slowly, "My father began looking for Pandora in order to destroy it, before it could get in the wrong hands, but he was killed by Snake when I was just nine years old. I later discovered dad's secret and decided to continue his quest." Shinichi nodded, smiling a little. Kaito looked at him for a minute trying to gauge what was going on in the vampire's mind, but his expression was only happy if not a little blank. "Shinichi? How much did you tell Hattori about me?"

"Well I guessed a few of the things you just told me, but I only told him about you being KID." Kaito nodded then propped himself up on his elbows to put a chaste kiss one the detective's lips as if saying thank you – for what he didn't really know. The latter smiled a bit, then dove back in, his hands grabbing the thief's neck to pull him closer. Kaito felt a weight lift from his chest as the dove flew away to prevent getting squashed when the two started moving closer. He moved to sit on Shinichi's lap with both of his legs on either side of him. One of the detective's hands was still grabbing his neck while the other rested on his lower back pulling him even closer. Kaito loved the feel of the vampire's silky hair as it slid through his fingers. A tongue licked his lower lip actually demanding enterance to his mouth, which Kaito happily gave. The kiss lasted longer and longer, with Shinichi investigating every little inch of his hot cavern. He tugged the silky hair he had been holding when he needed to breath. Almost reluctantly the other pulled back. "Still no forgiveness?" He asked with a smirk.

"No forgiveness." Kaito said betweens his pants. He gave a quick kiss to the detective's nose. "I actually have to go home, Kaa-san's probably waiting for me with dinner." He laughed when Shinichi growled in annoyance. "Don't worry, I'll be back tomorrow, okay?" The other muttered some more, but nodded either way.

"Ah, wait. Before you go, I still wanted to give you something." Shinichi suddenly said. Kaito yelped when the other easily stood up, while he was still in his lap. "Stay here, I'll go get it!" The magician watched him bounce out of the library with a confused expression on his face. What would Shinichi give him? He shrugged, his eyes falling on the book on the table. He picked it up and looked at a random page while sitting back down on the couch. He read through the text quickely. It was about the underworld otherwise known as the realm of Hades. The Hades was seperated into three different worlds. One was where the ones who had been good during their lives would go, Elysium. A field which spread far and wide and always had food and wine galore. Everyday was a feast and everyone recieved the freedom and peace they wanted. The second place was unnamed. This was were the people went who lived neither bad nor good. It was a barren field without hope or fear. The people who went there would fly around forever, squeaking like bats. The last place was Tartarus. The place feared by every living human, where every day was a torture. Only bad people would be sent there and punished. Like Tantalus whose punishment was to stand in a lake with low branches of fruit above his head, but everytime he tried to bent down to drink from the water, the water would recede and when he stretched his arm to take one of the fruits a breeze would blow the branch up in the air, making the delicious looking fruits elude his grasp forever.

Kaito jumped when he heard a sudden meow on the table in front of him. Looking up from the book he saw a brown cat sitting on the table. Dark blue eyes looked at him expectantly, while he just blinked. "A-a cat. Where-?" He looked around and saw the open window. It must have come through that, but why would a cat come in here? He looked back just in time to see the cat starting to grow. Its fur creeped away from the paw as if the body was growing out of its coat. The paw got fingers and as the fur got higher it showed a hand, an arm and a shoulder. Over the whole body happened the same thing until a girl sat in front of him. Kaito blinked in surprise of what he had just seen. How was that possible? Who is this girl? M-maybe it was Akako's doing? Yeah, she probably wanted to trick him. He tried to calm his mind with that idea for now and was about to study the girl when he noticed the lack of clothing. The cat hadn't worn anything and neither did the girl in front of him.

The girl blinked a few times. "Shinichi?" She asked and leaned a bit forward. Kaito pushed his back as far as he could in couch and did his best to keep looking at the girl's face and not...below that... Inwardly he laughed at himself. At least he now knew he wasn't gay, but at least bi. "Shinichi, are you okay?" She sat there naked and she was asking him if he was okay?! Wh-what was her relationship with his Shinichi!? She called him by his given name, so they must be close. A thought crossed Kaito's mind, which he absolutely didn't like, before he could stop it.

"Ah, Aya. What are you doing here?" Shinichi came in the room, a small box in his hands. He seemed to be totally unaware or indifferent about the nakedness of the girl. Did he even notice it? Kaito felt anger and jealousy bubble in his chest.

"Eh?!" The girl, Aya, looked from Kaito to Shinichi and back again. "Shinichi, since when do you have a clone?! Give me one too!" She pouted and Shinichi just shook his head.

"He's not my clone, Aya. He's my boyfriend." He said a bit irritated. How could they have such a normal conversation while she...?! Before Kaito knew it he jumped from the couch and started running towards the door. A hand grabbed his wrist and he yelped a bit in pain, causing the grasp to loosen a bit. "Where are you going?" Shinichi asked in genuine confusion.

"You idiot! How could you, Shinichi? After we finally-." NO! Don't admit it! "After all that's happened." Kaito felt tears gather in the corner of his eyes. Shinichi really had been playing with him. He already found a new lover. He already-.

"What are you talking about?" Shinichi frowned.
The magician pointed at Aya. "I'm talking about her! Your new girlfriend!" He yelled. Shinichi blinked, confusion spreading over all his features.

Tilting his head to the side he gave Kaito a what-the-fuck-face. "What are you talking about?"

"She calls you by your first name and you by hers and goddamn look at her!" The vampire turned around, still not letting go of his wrist. The girl blinked at them with the same confusion. A laugh resounded in the room. Kaito watched the detective bend over and hold his stomach as he laughed.

"A-Aya, clothes." He said between his fits. The girl looked down and froze. Slowly a blush rose to her face, before she started screaming and covered her with her hands.

"Shinichi! Why didn't you say so earlier?!" She yelled.

"You come in like that everytime, I guess I get used to it." The detective's laughter died down until they were only small giggles. "You know where you can find clothes." The girl jumped to her feet and ran out of the library still covering herself as best as she could.

When she was gone Kaito yanked his wrist out of the detective's grip, which had loosened increadibly due to his laughing fit. He ran to the door, holding a hand over his mouth and keeping his head low to hide the tears still threatening to fall. Shinichi. How could he? He almost forgave him and now... When he was almost at the door two strong and fast hands grabbed his arms and pushed him to the wall next to it. "Let me go! Damn it, you were just playing with me, right? Everytime, like Hoodie-san! Let me go! I hate you!"

~~xXx~~

Ouch. Those words stung. But Shinichi ingnored them. He pressed himelf closer to Kaito as the other began to struggle. It was understandable actually. For him to be insecure about their relationship. As Hoodie-san Shinichi had been playing with him a bit. And now, it looked and felt like they were back together, but Kaito still didn't want to admit it. Not that the detective blamed him for that, he was already happy that the magician still wanted to see him and actually led him kiss him. A kiss he missed as Kaito now struggled to seperate their lips. "Listen to me, Kaito." Immediately the struggling stopped as Shinichi said – almost whispered – his name calmly. "You've got the wrong idea. Here," he said and showed Kaito the box in his hands. Opening it, the magician gaped. "My heart belongs only to you, even if I may live forever." Kaito's eyes widened as he watched the two beautifully crafted necklaces in the box. They were made of silver – real silver, his thieving eyes noticed – and a wing hung on either one of them. The right one looked like a gargoyle's wing with a sharp horn/claw-like point on the top and was made of a ruby with dark metal outlines. The left one was an angel's wing, made of a diamond with silver outlines. Both of them were around the two and a half inches long. "Watch this." Shinichi said and took out the two jewelries. He held them up in the light until Kaito could see the wings change. The diamond in the angel's wing shone like it was a rainbow, while the ruby looked like it was on fire. He smiled at the magician's awe struck face before he lowered them. "Turn around." When he did as he was told Shinichi opened the clasp of the necklace with the angel's wing, then tilted it over Kaito's head and around his neck. He saw the latter raise his hand to touch the diamond as he closed the clasp. The thief turned around when he put the other necklace around his own neck.

"S-Shinichi. The-the diamond and the ruby...they're real. Don't they cost a fortune?" Kaito asked. The necklaces hung just on their sternum, right next to their heart.

"Not as much as you do." Shinichi said, smiling warmly at his boyfriend, then kissed him on the lips. The slightly smaller brunette could do nothing, but let him do what he wanted.

"Aha, Shinichi! That sounds so cliche!" Both teens turned towards Aya as she came in now fully clothed – though they were a bit too big, since they were from his mother.

"Hai, hai. Ah," Shinichi put his hand on Kaito hip and pulled him into his side. "Let's start over again. Aya, this is my boyfriend, Kuroba Kaito. Kaito, this is Ueto Aya." He waited until the name sunk in, wondering if Kaito recognised it.

"Eh? That famous actress and musician?" Th magician asked. Aya nodded happily.

"That's me!" She chirped, "Shinichi and I met six or seven years ago, when I became the main actress in a movie based on his father's novels. We promised each other that if we met in four or five years that we'd be a real actress and detective." They moved back towards the couch.

"Aya was unlucky enough to be in the vicinity during the explosion so she's a Shapeshifter too, a cat Shifter to be exact." Shinichi began. "Since she can't really fight, she usually spies or brings information from the FBI to me or the other way around. And most of the time she changes back she forgets that she doesn't wear anything." He sweat dropped as he remembered the first time she did that. Now that he remembered it, he reacted the same way Kaito had.

"So.." Kaito began, "No...secret lover?" Shinichi laughed at him, his boyfriend was so cute when he was jealous.

"We're friends. Just friends." Aya said.

"Mou, Shinichi~. Why didn't you say so before?" Kaito pouted at him, crossing his hands in front of his chest. The vampire ruffled his hair, before looking at Aya seriously.

"So, what do you have?" He asked.

The actress nodded, cheerful side gone as they got down to business. "Jodie-sensei looked it up and found this girl. Seemed like you were right about her being missing," She put a file on the table with a picture of a teenager. The girl had brown hair and sea-green eyes. She smiled broadly at the camera, but Shinichi couldn't shake the feeling of the sadness that lay beneath it, like she had seen much more of the world than you'd think at first. "Name; Pan Willson. Age; seventeen. Born; unknown. She seemed to have been a orphan when she was younger. Has been missing for almost a month now. To be exact the day you last saw her." Shinichi nodded.

"I see," he straightened himself to look at Aya, "Thanks Aya. See you later." The actress nodded and changed back to a cat. He felt Kaito tense next to him, but ignored it in favor of looking at the picture once again. It was her. The girl from that day, but why? Who was she? And why had she done that?

He looked up when he felt a tug on his shirt. "What that was about?" Kaito asked.

Waving his hand in a dismissive gesture the vampire looked at the clock, seeing it was almost seven. "It's nothing, do I have to bring you home?" He asked when they walked out of the library and towards the front door.

Kaito shook his head as the vampire opened the door for him. "Nah, that's okay. You still have to eat as well, right?"

~~xXx~~

The teen with the messy hair gave the vampire a chaste kiss on the lips before leaving, waving as he ran towards the gate. Hadn't it been dark people probably would have wondered what the vulture was doing on the rooftop of the house opposite to the Kudo mansion and how it had gotten there. Next to it a cat like creature, which also clearly didn't belong here lay on it's back playing with something in his paws. On the chimney on his other side sat an owl, looking with a predetory look at the teen leaving the house. "Attack him now and he will kill you." The vulture suddenly spook up in a low voice.

"Date, date, date!" The owl cooed, "He stole my lover! Shinichi's so out of it he can't hear us, even if we're so close! He must have had help from a witch or some kind and put a love spell on my vampy!" The vulture only rolled with his eyes as he continued to watch the scene below them. The brown cat which had come before then left not long after came out of one of the flower beds next to the front door of the Kudo mansion.

"You know this is dangerous, right?" The cat purred, making the vulture strain his ears even more to hear their conversation.

"I know." The vampire said, without looking away from the leaving teen.

"Then why? Bringing a human in this? Especially as your boyfriend." Neither of them noticed the victorious gleam in the vulture's eyes.

"He has gone through his share of the real world already, being Kaitou KID and all." The vulture felt how this picked the interest of his two companions, even the cat-like one next to him stopped playing with the dead rat in his paws.

"He's Kaitou KID?" The cat asked the vampire almost shocked.

The latter snorted at her surprise. "Jup and he has been fighting Snake for the past two years."

"Really now?"

The vampire only nodded, then stretched himself and yawned. "Well, you should go back already, I'm going to eat something then go to bed I think." He said and headed back inside.

"Have sweet dreams!" The cat said cheerfully before making it's way back home. The three animals watched it disappear in the bushes and waited for several minutes to make sure it didn't hear them leave.

"Ne, ne, Vulture-ojisan?" The cat-like creature asked. "Are we going to tell Snake-ojisan this?"

"Of course, Tiger. Come on." The small cub smiled as it jumped on the bird's back.

No one was there to see the two birds, one with a cub on its back, fly away.

~~xXx~~

Well, that was it! Ueto Aya is a real actress and musician. She made a guest appearance in DC once (episode 437) and I just liked her character (though here she's a little more cheerful ^^).

Thanks to those who reviewed last chapter and please do so again! I love tips, critic and everything except for flames ^^
