Kaitou KID: I feel terribly sorry for the author, don't you Lupin?
Lupin: Meow! I do indeed feel sorry for her. That's why you should never skip out on disclaimers.
KID: Maybe I should bail her out...
Lupin: Meow! Give her a bit to remember why disclaimers are important.
Me: (From jail cell) Evil lawyers stuck me here. T^T Anyways, I have learned my lesson and now shall remember to always say Detective Conan/Case Closed is not mine. Thank you. (hangs head)
POOF! (Disappears with Kaitou KID and Lupin)
Anyways, thank you to all reviewed. I apologize for not putting this in sooner as I was not on a computer with access to my particular email. To all who reviewed, I put replies to your reviews below. Again thanks, and enjoy the humiliation of Inspector Ginzo Nakamori. ^-^
The Cat-astrophe
Chapter 4: First Heist of Kaitou Cat
Inspector Ginzo Nakamori, father of Aoko Nakamori (Kaito's friend from earlier in the story), was known as the head of the Kaitou KID Capture Squad. Inspector Nakamori once chased the previous KID, Kaito's father Toichi, until 8 years ago when Toichi died and KID vanished from the face of the Earth, a living legend of Phantoms. Now, after Kaito had taken up the mantle of KID to get revenge for his father, Inspector Nakamori has done nothing but chase after KID to try and catch the elusive Phantom. On this night, he stood in the room of Kaitou KID's target, The Angel's Tear, a huge diamond that was so beautifully cut it was said to be the tear from an angel as no human could ever cut such a perfect diamond.
"Get ready everyone! Only five minutes until Kaitou KID gets here!" he yelled in his famous voice of loud proportions. "Kaitou KID could come from anywhere!" He continued to rant.
"Actually, Inspector Nakamori. It is exactly 04:53.23 and my watch only loses 0.001 seconds each year and it is exactly 4 years 23 days 8 hours 19 minutes and 52 seconds old." said a voice behind Inspector Nakamori. The Inspector turned to glare at a blond teen behind him.
"Saguru Hakuba! How many times do I have to tell you that this is not your business and should stay out?" He yelled at Hakuba who merely held his hand over his ear to block out Inspector Nakamori's yell.
Come Kaito, Hakuba thought. I shall catch you in the act tonight and reveal to all who you really are, Kaitou Kuroba! Hakuba doesn't actually know that Kaito is KID but he has his suspiscions as he is as good of a detective as Shinichi Kudo, the Great Detective of the East and another detective who shall be revealed later on.
Hakuba glanced at his fancy pocket watch again.
"5." He began counting down.
"4." The newer cops shifted nervously.
"3." A breath above them slowed.
"2." Tiny claws clicked upon the tiles.
"1." A thumb twitched over a button.
"0." And suddenly the lights went out.
"Stay calm!" Inspector Nakamori yelled at the officers who were starting to panic now. "Pull out your flashlights! Aim them towards the case!" He shouted instructions to the officers who tried to quickly obey.
"No need for that, dear Inspector." said a cocky voice above Inspector Nakamori. Everyone froze as a spotlight came down from above the case that held the Angel's Tear. And beneath the spotlight, above the case, stood the great uncatchable Kaitou KID with his signature smirk on his face while his top hat and monocle shadowed his eyes.
"KID!" Screamed Inspector Nakamori. "GET HIM!" He yelled. KID sighed as the officers immediately began to play their favorite game, Pile-On-The-Bandit. Instead of disappearing in smoke like he usually did, he held up his gloved hands to his mouth and whistled! At first nothing happened but then a flash of whitecame bounding around the room landing on each of the officers heads and forcing them to land around the case instead of on it. At first, Inspector Nakamori couldn't tell what this white streak was, but when it stopped on KID's shoulder, his jaw dropped in pure shock.
On KID's shoulder sat a pure white cat with a miniature sized top hat and monocle that matched KID's perfectly! The darn cat even had a cat version of KID's smirk on its face! That was the last straw for poor Inspector Nakamori.
"WHAT THE HELL IS A CAT DOING HERE?" He yelled in full force causing both the cat and KID to wince a little. Even Hakuba who saw standing behind Nakamori against the wall did not go unaffected by his yell.
"It would appear sir, that Kaitou KID has found himself a new playmate." Hakuba said as he wiped some cat paw prints off of his face where Lupin, or now Kaitou Cat, had seem fit to bounce off of.
"I CAN SEE THAT!" Inspector Nakamori yelled again. "KID! Explain yourself!" He yelled again.
KID smirked then took a bow after jumping off of the case and restoring the lights, which only infuriated the Inspector even more.
"Forgive me," he said in a very cocky gentlemenly voice. "I have not yet introduced my new little partner. This is Kaitou Cat." He said as his grin only got wider and even stifled a small laugh.
A vein on Inspector Nakamori's forehead throbbed a little as the cat even had the nerve to bow just like KID.
"Get them!" He yelled even louder, if that was even possible.
KID pulled the brim over his eyes a bit more while nodding his head to Nakamori.
"I'm afraid Cat and I must take our leave now." he said as Cat jumped onto KID's shoulder now holding the Angel's Tear in his mouth.
Inspector Nakamori was stunned. He hadn't even noticed that the cat had even jumped off of KID's shoulder much less grab the diamond.
"Farewell Inspector!" KID said with a large smirk on his face as he threw down a smoke bomb and vanished.
"Get up!" Inspector Nakamori shouted to the officers. "He couldn't have gotten very far!" The officers got up, albeit a little wobbly from the cat jumping on their heads, and followed Inspector Nakamori out of the room at top speed to catch KID. Hakuba, who had just watch mostly in silence during the exchange, sighed shaking his head as he tucked his watch into his pockets again.
As he left the room, he noticed an officers boot disappearing around the opposite corner that Inspector Nakamori had gone. Curious, Hakuba followed and spotted an officer at the next turn of the hallway bending down to scratch a white cat which was now without the hat and monocle.
"Hello KID." Hakuba said as he walked up to the officer. The officer turned to him and smirked.
"Hello my dear detective." The officer said standing back up with the cat now in his arms.
"Wonderful job tonight." Hakuba said. "I was just wondering, how did you get a cat to do that for you?"
"Tsk tsk tsk." The officer said shacking a finger at Hakuba. "Never ask a Magician to reveal his secrets. It's considered a bit rude." He said as the cat moved to the top of his head where it sat staring down at Hakuba with cerulean blue eyes.
Strange eyes for a cat. Hakuba thought before bringing his attention back to the thief before him.
"My apologies then." Hakuba said with a hint of sarcasm. "Might I just ask instead, how are you going to escape now?" He asked suddenly as he slapped a pair of handcuffs onto KID's wrist.
KID acted shocked for a second while the cat on top of his head hissed at Hakuba.
"Now, detective, did you really think you can hold me with that?" he said smirking as he threw down another smoke bomb and made his escape to the roof, now in his KID uniform and the cat , again in its own little uniform.
Hakuba waved the smoke aside coughing, before throwing down the fake arm with the handcuffs still attached to it.
"Damn," he cursed. "I thought I had him."
Hakuba turned and looked out one of the nearby windows, at the turn in the hallway, watching a figure in white flew through the night on a hang-glider, no doubt holding the cat on his back and laughing at the antics of the officers and detectives attempting to catch the elusive Phantom of the Night and his new partner, the Kaitou Cat.
Here is replies to reviews, if you haven't reviewed before, then just skip to the last bit for a little something. ^-^
To Hinata Utaku (if s/he ever gets back into this story):
-1st review: Thank you for liking my story. And recaping the story was mainly for my parents who shall be reading it later on and for my friends on facebook who may want to try some of them. I wish you had read through the first chapter as I think I did a pretty good job on it. Sorry to hear that. Hope you like the rest!
-2nd review: Glad you like my disclaimer. I was going to change it for the next chapters but was too much into trying to get the chapter themselves updated. Luckily, this one is different and I had as much fun with it as I did with the last one. Hope you like it. Oh, and The Game is the greatest and worst Game that you can ever play as you can never win but you can drag others into your loser-ism. ^-^
-3rd review: Why, yes, I am indeed a random person. I love to make people smile and my catch phrase has become "Smile! It's a new day!". My friends are a huge influence on me in the random category as they are just as bad as I am. ^-^ -several people sneeze in nearby vicinity- And what is the "go go dance"? Also, I shall indeed keep on going full speed ahead! XD
-4th review: Thanks so much for continually reviewing and I hope you continue to read it. I hope you like the heist. I worked very hard on it and have the image of Inspector Nakamori's and the other cops shocked and humiliated faces trapped forever in my evil vision of Kaitou KID taking over the world! XD Jk. But I seriously can picture it very well. ^-^
-5th review: You actually didn't miss it. I forgot to add it and edited the summary later to get it in. Sorry about that. ^-^ I'm glad you like Shrek as well. Puss In Boots all the way!
To Fragile Dreams XD:
-1st review: I am so happy to have maded you lose the Game. Sorry, but expect to continue losing it until Gin shoots me in the head for doing so. ^-^ Glad you like my story and it's title. I usually have the title in mind first and when I thought of this story, this title was the first one to come into my head and it stuck. ^-^ I'm glad it's different and super good. ^-^ I always try to mix things up a little. Hope you like the heist as well!
-2nd review: Glad you like how it is going. I really wanted to team the two up for fun and games. ^-^ I hope Conan really does find it out in the actual series. It'd be a nice twist. ^-^
-3rd review: How did you mix this up? I'm glad you still like it. And I actually don't care about losing the Game anymore as certain people -cough cough- made it no longer any fun except when I make other people lose. -evil smile- ^-^ In a way it does connect with Black Phantom 1412's but mine came to me when I was out and about and had seen others writing Neko stories but found them to be unsatisfactory to my own standards, no offense to others, but I believe if Black Phantom is willing, I would love to do a joint Neko Tantei/Kaitou story with her. ^-^ Hope she sees this! XD Glad I update so quickly for you. ^-^
Again, thanks to all and glad you enjoyed the story. Remember! Us authors live off of R&R! Oh, and just to piss off Fragile Dreams XD more, I believe I have something to tell you all...
I JUST LOST THE GAME! And once again, cakes are lies! And the answer to all future questions, is 42. ^-^ Yes, I am hyper right now so I am being completely random. Thanks for reading, and I love everyone. ^-^
