Close your eyes,

Cover your ears,

And don't open your mouth,

Part One

Kaito wasn't sure when the missing time had started, but at first it wasn't noticeable. Like, going to the kitchen and then ending in the KID room, but it got worse. He once woke up and found himself somewhere in the middle of Beika, with absolutely no idea what time it was or how he'd gotten there. It would happen almost as if it was a ritual routine, every night at three in the morning, he'd find himself in another part of Beika. At first, he was sure that Akako was messing with him again, but he wasn't brave enough to go and ask her. Especially after she told him that a demon had a special interest in him and one of his detectives.

At least that's what he thought her riddle meant.

Tonight he awoke in the KID room, instead of in Beika, he was staring at himself in the mirror, his eyes slowly widening as he took in the state of his appearance. He was completely covered in dirt and blood, as if he went out and massacred nameless amount of people or something. The blood, at least he was sure it was blood, was dried brown into his clothing, so he has been covered for a while…at least long enough for it to dry. His mouth felt like glue as he opened it to take in a big breathe and let it out slowly.

He could almost hear laughter in the back of his head as he panicked, something that he tried not to do. He slowly started taking off the bloodstained clothing, he had to get out of them, it felt wrong and gross; He threw them in a pile as he made his way to the bathroom and started taking a shower, almost as if he was in autopilot. After he got out of the shower and changed, he wrote down everything he could remember of the day. Which to his surprise, wasn't much, he couldn't' even remember going to school.

What had he done?

Why was he covered in blood?

What happened?

It wasn't until the next morning that he figured, or at least he hoped, what he'd done. His mother was at the door talking to one of the nosier neighbors of their little neighborhood. "Can't believe what happened to Taki-san's dog and Koi pool, Kuroba-chan." the old lady said, probably for the second or third time as his mother nodded her head, agreeing with the old lady.

"Okaa-san, what happened?" Kaito asked as the old lady left to go tell the rest of the neighborhood.

"Ah, Kai-chan are you feeling better?" His mother countered, confusing Kaito.

"Whatcha mean?"

"You came home yesterday from school saying that you didn't feel good. Honestly Kai-chan, you looked like something the cat ate and spat out." His mother said, as she moved towards the kitchen with Kaito following her. So that's what happened after second period? He did a mental tally, and sat at the table, he didn't' have to go to school quite yet. After all, Aoko wasn't there to pull him out of bed yet, then again if he left home sick, maybe she wouldn't show at all.

"I'm fine, but what happened at Taki-san's house?" Kaito asked.

Chikage looked uncomfortable, before sighing, it might as well be her to tell her son, it wasn't like half the school wasn't going to know before school let out. "Taki-san's dog was nailed to her door, gutted, with everything covering the porch…and the Koi's" Kaito shuddered at the thought of the evil fish, "were tied up to her porch railings completely gutted."

A picture of a gutted dog and evil finny things entered his mind. Had he done that? He felt relieved that he hadn't killed someone, but still felt a sense of disturbed guilt. Why would he do something like that? What was going on?

Even worse, what would happen next?
