Everything was going as usual for the thief tonight. Just like normal, he introduced himself to a cursing Nakamouri. Then, as usual, all the police officer did a dog pile, hoping to catch him, and then he would craw out of the bottom of them all. But that was when something unusual happened.

As he was crawling out of the pile of Task Force officers, there was another officer, a little smaller than the rest of them. The young policeman, woman, the KID noted, was smirking, though it was hard to tell with her head bowed. She lifted her head and a wide, toothy grin sprung out onto her face, along with a mop from behind her back.

Before he could really react, the mop came down, almost hitting the thief. He did his best to not show fear but it was hard when the mop grazed his shoulders a few times.

No wonder Aoko has been put in all her effort in class…she was PRACTICING!

Aoko sped up and swung down one final blow with all her might, closing her eyes to put everything she had into the last blow.

WHAK!

Aoko opened her eyes, joyfully thinking that she had brought the KID down. When she saw a broken mop and no Kaitou to be found…anger grew like never before. She looked around for where the Kid went. Seeing him not on the ceiling meant that he went running towards the door at the end of the hall way that see had chased him into.

I've got you now! She thought as she walked quietly to the door.

Kaito was catching his breath. If I didn't know better, I would think that she's trying to kill me. He grabbed his arm as a small pain shot through it. I didn't think she had it in her… thinking back to how he narrowly escaped the swinging mop. He looked around to take in his surroundings.

Great…Aoko, who, besides Nakamouri Keibu, hates KID the most, is carrying a broken mop with probably lots of splinters that, in her hands, would kill me. And I walked into a closet. Good job there Kuroba.

He became real still when he heard small foot steps coming towards the door. And, on top of everything else, Aoko didn't think I doubled back, which is what I should have done! CRAP!

Aoko stood in front of the door. This is it…The day when the KID gets caught. When he leaves the spot light and I can have my dreams back. And where I can finally look Kaito in the eye again.

She tightened her grip on half of the mop and felt butterflies swarm through out her body.

BANG!

I am sorry for the horrid chapter! I had something really good planned for this chapter but I forgot! GAH! I hate when that happens! The next chapter will be much better!
