Shinichi Kudo stared out the bars of the jail cell, a long sigh escaping his mouth. "Dang, we screwed up." His companion laughed. The detective turned around and shot Kaito a deadpan look.
"Actually, you screwed up. If you hadn't let Hakuba catch you-"
"I did not let him catch me. I was a bit preoccupied with the men with guns trying to kill me." The magician sniffed, then smirked. "Besides," he added smugly. "I didn't ask you to break me out of jail." Shinichi groaned and banged his head against the wall.
"Was I supposed to let you get killed?" He grumbled. He had, in his attempt to rescue the Kaitou KID, been arrested and determined to be an accomplice of the thief. Now both of them were being held in jail until they could be moved to a place with higher security. "Why are we in the same cell, anyway? Shouldn't they be separating KID and his 'accomplice'?"
At this, Kaito chuckled. "The Kaitou KID was arrested," he snickered. "Apparently the more… ah, extreme fans are causing uproars all over Japan." He lapsed into quiet sniggers, making his amusement clear. Shinichi groaned again. He would bet the entire Kudo fortune that Sonoko Suzuki was involved somehow. "It's actually sweet to know they love me so much."
"Love you?" The detective scoffed. "More like tie you up and hide you in their basement. Have you seen some of the Kaitou KID merchandise out there?"
The thief fidgeted a bit uncomfortably. "Well I'll admit they can get a bit crazy…" he mumbled. Tone brightening, he added, "Have I told you that I once found a KID plushie in Aoko's closet? It's so cute!"
Shinichi gave a sarcastic laugh. "She probably wanted to use it as voodoo." There was a mumble of reluctant agreement when he suddenly lifted a hand up for the most epic facepalm of his life. He literally knocked his own head into the wall from the force of it. As Kaito burst into laughter, the detective tried but failed to ignore the throbs of pain in opt for panicking. "Oh gods. Ran is going to murder me. She'll dig my grave, break my bones, and bury me alive. I'm so dead." He dropped his head into his hands, the very picture of despair.
His cellmate only shrugged casually. "Hey, we're on the run from the Ravens and the law already. Why not your girlfriend too? Speaking of which, Aoko's going to hunt me down if we get out of here." He shivered, suddenly seeing Shinichi's point.
"Actually, we better start making escape plans. You have a cellphone?"
Kaito grinned, though some of his former anxiety was visible. "You know me so well. Here, walk by me and sit about three feet to the left of that corner." He jerked his head to the side slightly. "It's the only blind spot in the cell." Shinichi did so, feeling the magician slip something into his hand as he passed by. He immediately slipped it into his sleeve so the cameras wouldn't see.
"This good?" He asked, crouching down in the designated area.
He was answered with a thumbs up. "Perfect."
He quickly punched in a number he had memorized long ago. It rang twice before someone picked up with an irate grumble. It was, after all, still early morning. "Hattori? Yeah, it's me. Look, I need a favor… I'm kind of in jail right now." He winced. "I was breaking out the Kaitou KID?" This time he jerked the phone away from his ear, and a garbled yell was audible even to Kaito. "Look, it's a long story. But can you…? Yeah. Sorry. We'll probably be dead if you don't. Thanks." He hung up with a sheepish smile, then looked at Kaito. "Hattori will be here by nightfall. Nothing to do now but wait."
Kaito sighed happily and reclined against the wall. "It's great to have friends."
The idea of this made me laugh. Shinichi attempted to break Kaito out of jail, since Snake would probably kill him if he didn't. I actually don't think this is too OOC for Shinichi. He's risked his life for complete strangers before. Why not stage a jail break for a friend?
