Chapter 2

Looks like the cross dressing boy is in my class.

And he is one of the biggest pranksters in the whole wide world.

And he really is a magician.

Well, he claims so... I have to admit, he is rather good...

I noticed all that within the first two lessons.

As the lecture began to become boring it made a silent pffff and pink smoke began to rise. Within seconds the whole room was filled with it. I couldn't see a thing.

I was shocked for a second but at least I was familiar with it. I began with smoke as vanishing/ hiding/distraction-instrument before I created my own style (those pieces of black cloth whirling around me).

As I knew, trying to see something in the smoke was pointless, I closed my eyes.

The 'seeing' part is the thing that makes the audience the... well, the audience.

I felt somebody passing me.

As the smoke vanished (exactly six seconds later) I could see what this 'amateur' magician could do.

The whole room arrangement had changed!

I sat down at the third seat next to the window, afterwards I was located three seats away, in the middle of the classroom.

How did he do that? And without me noticing!? And he did it with everyone else too, except him.

My gaze wandered to the blackboard as I followed the stares of the class.

O my dear gods.

Our teacher (Mrs Izumi Taneka) stood in front of the class, dressed into a... ehhh... cat costume? There were furry ears and a tail at least. The 'rest' was a combination of a far too short black shirt with hot pants and high lack boots.

I sighed.

Plus, everybody else wore also a pair of furry ears. Cats, dogs, bunnies, etc.

I felt about my head and took the ears down to look at them. Black cat ears. Hm. I shrugged and put them back on. They weren't that bad...

"Kaito...!", I heard a girl growl, it was again the spiky haired girl.

"Ah, Aoko!", Kaito smiled brightly.

To my horror the girl, Aoko, grabbed a... mob and swung it towards the grinning boy with the wild hair. In the last moment he jumped out of her reach with a bachflip. Whoa. He seems in a good shape...

"Aw, come on, Aoko...", he pouted. "Bunnys shouldn't behave like that..."

Aoko turned a dangerous deep shade of red and she ripped the white bunnyears off her had, throwing them after the magician.

She continued chasing him through the whole classroom.

The students didn't seem to excited about that.

The teacher ran out of the classroom and everyone began to chat.

That was kind of... confusing.

"Don't mind them.", a blond guy next to me said.

I looked at him. "Hi. Hakuba Saguru." He shook my hand. "Luca. Nice to meet you."

He leaned back a bit. "Forgive the question, but are you by any chance this famous European magician...?", he asked.

Oh. Looks like I've been recognized, hu.

I sighed and shifted uncomfortable. "Yeah...", I replied and quickly continued: "So... is this Kaito-guy a magician? A... professional magician?"

Hakuba hesitated for a second. "Well... he is definitely good enough...", he admitted.

"Aw, how nice of you, Hakuba!", I heard Kaito yell from the other side of the room where he avoided one of Aokos death swingers by a millimetre.

"Shut up." Hakuba muttered with a one day, I'll kill you glances.

Then he turned to me again. "You have any ideas how to deal with that jerk as a professional?", he asked me hopeful.

I laughed. "Well firs thing I'd need to know is how good he actually is..."

That moment, somebody jumped on my table from behind me. I shrugged in surprise.

It was Kaito. "You're a professional!?" he exclaimed with big blue eyes sparkling of excitement.

In a second I made my choice. I still had to pay him back, after all. For putting ears on my head. And for our poor teacher.

I saw Aoko coming from the side with her mob. In the last second before he jumped away, I pickpocketed Hakuba, got his handcuffs and shut them, one around Kaitos hand, the other one on his ankle.

Fast (within a second) and without him noticing.

He jumped, well, he tried. But instead I fell to the floor.

"What the-", he exclaimed and looked down at the cuffs. "How-?"

I stood up and pet his spiky hair. ""Sorry, Kaito. But little perverts should be restrained..."

"P-Pervert!?"

I blinked. "Well, yeah. First you flipped skirts, then you put our poor teacher into a... permissive outfit. With cat ears."

"She has a point...", I heard Hakuba agree.

Kaito sighed and snapped his fingers. The cuffs jumped open. Well, seems he's pretty good...

But not good enough... I sat back on the chair.

"But that wasn't a real punishment...", Aoko sighed. "He deserves more. But compliment. I never saw anyone stop him like that before!"

"Thanks. Just practice."

"Say...", Hakuba said, "where did you get these handcuffs?"

I just looked at him. "Take a guess."

His eyes widened a little bit and he searched for his own pair. Of course he couldn't find it.

"You... pickpocketed me?"

I sighed, took them out of Kaitos hand and gave them back. "Sorry for that."

"I didn't feel a thing...", he murmured.

Kaito just rolled his eyes.

"But you're right, Aoko. He deserves more...", I continued and a big grin appeared on my face.

I snapped my fingers.

Aokos and Hakubas eyes widened.

Kaitos hair began to turn into a very bright pink.

"What the hell?", Hakuba muttered. "When did you...?"

I just smiled.

Kaito looked confused. "What is it?" He reached for his hair. Then he pulled out a big mirror out of seemingly nowhere.

"Whaaat!?", he shrieked. "But why... why pink!?"

He got a strange look from Aoko and Hakuba.

"Sorry. Had no other with me...", I apologized. "But it will be away by tomorrow morning..."

He sighed. "You did it after I fell, right?"

I didn't answer, just smiled. Never reveal your tricks...

But he is right.

It was when I patted his head.

"Well, congrats, lady." He bowed deeply and let a white rose pop out of his hand.

Even if I know how it works, it's kind of sweet.

"I am Kuroba Kaito, magician extraordinaire! Nice to meet you..."


A.N.: Thanks for reading!

A little question for you: Should Kaito and Shinichi be a couple in this story?

Please tell me what you think! (would be kind of sweet, wouldn't it? They won't play a big part in it... well its not planned.)

till next time!

And again I am sorry for every mistake! I wanted to finish it today... :)
