Shinichi was covering her ears in pain.
The sound of the Helicopters, the people and the screaming Nakamori was far too much to hear and the sound of Kaitou Kid`s voice near her just made it even worse. She was in pain and it was just getting worse and worse with every fleeting moment she was in clear and cut pain and there was nothing that she could do about it because of the spotlight that she could feel on her skin was on her and was on him. There was far too much and far too much going on the she could not concentrate and she was starting to panicking and getting flash backs of hearing her mother scream in pain.
" Meitantei " said a panicked Kaitou Kid trying to comfort her.
It felt like her eardrums were going to burst that any moment and it was just too much pain with the pain of the beating that she had already had and she was in too much pain that she collapsed into a ball covering her ears. It was barely blocking the sound out but it was the only thing that she could do in that moment and she could feel the blood in her eardrums starting to develop and the sound was getting too her far too much.
"W-what can I do to help you ? " said Kaito begging her.
He was no longer using his Kaitou Kid voice but his real voice and it was just making things worse.
G-get away...from me " said Shinichi.
She was begging him to go away but he was not leaving her alone and more Helicopters were coming she could hear them and her ears were now bleeding and she could feel all the lights coming.
" SHINE YOUR LIGHTS ON HIS FACE HE HAS GOT NOWHERE TO GO " screamed Nakamori.
He saw it coming from her ears and he was shocked there was blood coming from her ears and he had to help her somehow.
He did not know why he did it but he just did he covered her ears with his own hands and it seemed to work as she started to calm down and she was now able to move and he was holding her in his arms against his chest as he kneeled on the ground beside her.
" Are you alright ? " said Kaito silently.
She just nodded.
She was able to stand up at the same time he did and she was now able to focus her hearing and she was going to start with just focusing on the one sound. But that is when she heard it from a distance.
Click
The sound of a gun being loaded and being moved into position and she knew what the target was going to be and she had to make her move and quickly or he was going to die right here in front of everyone. And she did not want that she did not want another person that she cared about to die or anyone die to tonight it was just not the right thing.
" Get off me " said Shinichi as she pushed Kaitou Kid as he tried to hug her and comfort at the same time.
She was able to push him just in time.
BANG
The bullet was launched an it was going to hit its target perfectly with the spotlight and everything it was just the perfect chance to kill him and he was going to take his golden opportunity and he aimed.
She was able to push him away as if he was annoying her and out of the spotlight and the bullet that as aimed for his eye.
But his monocle was broken and smashed to ground in pieces.
It was just the monocle that was hit and nothing else.
" Huh! " he said shocked as he looked to the ground as he saw the glass fall like rain.
BANG
Another shot was taken but he was able to avoid it this time.
Shinichi just stood still.
" Get down " he said grabbing her to the ground and covering her with his cape for protection from bullets and to hide her as best as he could.
They were both face down on the ground as more shots were taken.
" Shin-Chan " he said caringly as he hugged her pulling her closer to him trying to protect her and shield her if he had to.
" GO AFTER THAT BASTARD SHOOTING " screamed Nakamori.
All of the Helicopter started to move towards where the shooting was coming from and only three Helicopter remained at the rooftop to still capture the thief.
He stood up picking Shinichi up with him.
" Are you alright ? " he said.
" I am fine " said Shinichi.
" Here let me a look at you. Are you hurt or bleeding ? Speak to me " said Kaitou Kid.
A Helicopter then landed on the roof just meters away from them blowing off his hat and his disguise was gone completely.
All he had was his cape and he was using it to cover his head the best he could but the wind coming from the Helicopter was way too much.
" KID We have you now " screamed Nakamori approaching.
Nakamori was approaching with others and now setting up light so that they could see Kaitou Kid`s face. They would just not give up and he had let himself be distracted today trying to impress Shinichi and he had now been caught so many times today that he had to get his act together or he really would be in handcuffs. He would be sitting in a jail cell wearing an orange jumpsuit and orange was not his colour. But he did like oranges and orange juice and now he was distracting himself and getting off topic.
Kaito panicked and he could only think of one thing that could shock everyone into letting him go and cover his face at the same time.
" I am sorry about this Shin-Chan but it the only way I can keep my identity save " whispered Kaito.
He pulled her forward.
" I said I would steal one more thing tonight and that would be a kiss from your lips my Lady and if I have to go to jail it would be worth it and think of it as a goodbye " said Kaitou Kid.
Shinichi was confused and frozen.
He placed his hand on the back of her head and took her glasses off.
He kissed her on the lips.
He did it so he could hide his face and because he wanted to.
Everyone at the same time and speechless on the rooftop unable to move a muscle.
And boy did it work.
The moment his lips met her it was like fireworks going off and chocolate and so much more it was the best thing that he had ever felt and tasted. He had completely and utterly forgotten everything that was happened as he leaned in as he stepped closer to her deepening the kiss as he could feel the blush on his face and he dipped her down. As he ran his back down her back and in her hair, he was in heaven and everything was just perfect.
" OUCH " he screamed in pain and he opened his eyes.
He started to remember what was happening and he smiled.
He heard nothing but silence and not even the sound of his Doves flapping their wings.
He looked down into her eyes and she was glaring at him and she really did have the most beautiful eyes that he ever saw.
And it made him gasp.
" Bastard! " said Shinichi.
She kneed him where it would hurt but she missed and just hit stomach instead.
BANG
He dropped a smoke bomb so that he was able to escape.
" Farewell Meitantei and Thank You for the kiss I will never forget that " said Kaitou Kid.
She touched her lips angrily and she flushed.
She was going to kill him for this.
Her face was now red in anger or was it something else but she did not think of that because she was far too angry.
She was debating whenever just to jump off the roof and beat him unconscious putting him in Hospital or just staying there on the roof with the others. They were now staring at her but not making eye contact with her.
" She saw his face we can get a sketch artist up here right now and she can tell us what he looks like and we will find him in no time. Inspector we have got him " said a Task Force member.
She just huffed impatiently and in anger.
Hakuba was now at the door on the roof as he opened it using the key.
" Hakuba can you take Kudo out of here and away from everyone before they all try to doing something. Just take her home and we can have an interview arranged for tomorrow or another day " said Nakamori calmly.
" Yes " said Hakuba.
They both did not say a word.
She just took his arm and they walked away in bitter silence.
" Inspector why did you send her away she will forget what he looks like " said the Task Force member.
" She does not know what he looks like and she never will " said Nakamori.
" What ? " said the Task Force member confused.
" She did not see, she cannot see " said Nakamori.
" Inspector are you saying ? " said the Task Force member.
"Yes ...that she is blind therefore she could not have seen his face " said Nakamori grimly.
There was more bitter silence on the rooftop.
He kissed her and he was smiling away happily he did not need his Poker Face for this or any time soon because he was truly happy even if he was in pain and she may or may not have liked the of kissing him. He had kissed her and it was the best kiss that he had ever had and he had finally shown her his feelings for her and there was no way that she did not know that he liked like that. Well he was sure that she would know because it was pretty obvious and even if he had heard that she was dense as they come Ran had kissed her and Shinichi knew how she felt. And there was not a lot done about that yet and he had only a short window of opportunity because she was kissed by two people and Hakuba was still competition. He was thinking and thinking fast that maybe he should go and talk to her before anyone and anything else happens and ruins his chance of getting the girl. And today had not been a good day for him he had been caught by the two Detectives and even surprisingly Nakamori. And not to mention the whole thing with Snake. And now his head was starting to hurt and bleed as he tried to hide the fact that he had hit his head and he was thinking that he better gets it checked and fast.
So, he would say goodbye to Aoko and then go see Jii so he could check his injuries and then he would go and see Shinichi and discuss what had happened and he had to talk to her about being Daredevil. He was sure that she was Daredevil, only a small part of him was thinking that she was not Daredevil and if he was wrong then she was going to kill him or the both of them would kill him.
And Shinichi had saved him by pushing him away there was no way that was not a coincidence because he did not believe in them and there was a lot of coincidence when it came to her and Daredevil. There was far too many for her not to be Daredevil.
Hakuba had got her a lift home from his Nanny she tried so hard not to laugh when she heard that he had a Nanny. But she had to cough a lot to keep the laughter in it was just so funny. But as she sat in the car with them the relationship they had was sweet it was like they were family. Like Grandmother and Grandson and it was not like she was his Nanny at all. But it did remind her of how her relationship with Agasa as he was like a Grandfather to her she was just glad that she had him in her life.
And they were now at her home as Shinichi was unlocking the gate Hakuba stood by the car. And nanny began to nudge at his elbow and giving him a look that he needed to act and fast before it was too late. He took a deep breath in and he walked forward ready to do something that he was nervous about.
" Look I need to ask you some questions of what happened on the roof with Kaitou Kid when he and the sooner someone asks you question the better and I can do the report myself that way you will not need to go speak with Nakamori. And I will speak for you and it will be easier for you and much less embarrassing and yelling " said Hakuba.
" Ok do you want to come in and do it now the sooner it is done the better " said Shinichi.
" Yes...that would be great... for the best " he stuttered as he said it.
She unlocked the gate and walked in the Mansion and he followed after her nervously with his Nanny silently telling him that he better kiss her already. He blushed and gulped as he walked into the Mansion.
" Where would you like to do the interview ? " said Hakuba.
" In the library would be best for it, come on it is just this way " she said walking forward and he followed her without saying a word.
" Wow just Wow " he said as he turned looking at the library.
He lived in a Mansion himself and he was no stranger to having money and having a library at home but his was nothing like this and it was not this big. He was truly amazed at what he was seeing and as he looked the books he could see that most of them were mystery novel, almost all of them were mystery novels and it was his version of heaven come true. It was truly the best thing that he had ever seen and he could see himself spending all of his free time in here reading every single novel. And wondering how long it would take to read them all and if he could and if they all had actually been read and if Shinichi had read them all. Looking at the spine of the books he could see that most of them were read and his personal favourites Sherlock Holmes had been read several times and the most.
" So, what would you like to ask me ? " said Shinichi.
She startled him and made him jump.
" Hakuba ? " said Shinichi.
" There is something that I need to do and I need to do it now before it is too late before I lose the confidence not to do it again " said Hakuba.
Hakuba quickly walked forward and kissed Shinichi on the lips.
She was shocked.
It was just a quick and small kiss but they both liked it.
Their lips parted.
" I have wanted to do that the day since I met you and I have finally done it " said Hakuba.
She blushed and smiled nervously.
" With everything that has happened I was hoping that you would give me a second chance to take you on a proper date this time with any interruptions and anything getting in the way. Would you like to go to the Opera with me next week ? And this time I will make sure that I am not working on anything and if a certain thief just happens to show up then we can go somewhere else I have already had several other plans so that he will not get in our way and you can count on that " said Hakuba.
Shinichi`s face was deadpanned as she tried to take it all in.
" Hakuba I like you I really do but there was this thing that happened and I just need time to think things over and I don't want to lead anyone on. I am sorry but..." said Shinichi.
" You are referring to Mouri kissing you yesterday " said Hakuba.
" Yes...wait how did you know about that ? I have not told anyone about that and other me the only one that would know is the person that kissed me and that is Ran. And I am betting anything that she would have told Sonoko because I know for a fact that Ran would never tell you and you were all acting weird today. What the hell is going on ? " said Shinichi.
He did not know why but he backed away in fear for just a second when he saw how furious she looked.
" Nothing is going on " said Hakuba.
" You are lying to me " said Shinichi.
He was just going to tell her the truth hoping that he could win her over or at least she would forgive him in time because he was the one that told her.
" Sonoko placed a bet with myself and Kuroba he injected Kaitou Kid for some reason. It was whoever kisses you first will win you and the others would have to back off. Sonoko was hoping for Ran to win and I just wanted to win you without anyone getting in the way I got jealous and I did not think. But the bet was put off when I saw that you were sad and I wanted to win you the right way by being a Gentleman " said Hakuba.
He was telling half-truths and he was lying and she knew this but she was not going to tell him this.
" Get out " said Shinichi.
" Please " he said pleading.
" I said Get Out or I will make you and believe me you would not like that " said Shinichi icily.
" I am truly sorry and in time I hope that you will forgive me " said Hakuba bowing and then leaving.
Shinichi sat down.
" Everyone needs to stop kissing me " said Shinichi to herself.
And she lowered her head into her hands.
She kicked her shoes off and she could start to feel the bruises and everything starting to develop and show.
And then she heard Agasa coming in the front door and come in the library were she still was.
" I heard what happened do you need any help with any wounds ? " said Agasa.
" It is just a couple of scratches and bruises, maybe one cut that might need some stitches " said Shinichi.
He saw the back of her dress and he saw that she was starting to bleed through.
" Small cut, you really should have worn the armour that I made for you or the suit " said Agasa.
" I told you I could not get it past security and there was just a lot of chaos and I did not have a lot of time to plan a head I made the best of what I could and I have other things to worry about " said Shinichi.
" He figured it out " said Agasa.
They were chatting while he took care of her wounds and did the stitches that she needed.
" I think I have a way that I can mislead him but I am going to need your help with it and I know that he will be here and soon after what he did tonight and he is lucky I am not going to kill for it. And it would just convince him ore of I did try to kill him " said Shinichi.
" There all done " said Agasa.
She stood up.
" Thank You " said Shinichi.
" Wait what did he do ? " said Agasa.
" That arrogant fool kissed me " said Shinichi mad.
" I will help you with your plan " said an angry and protective Agasa.
" Ok here is what I need you to do..." said Shinichi.
BEEP
It was now twelve o'clock and the horrible, horrible day was finally over and she could finally breathe and relax.
But she stood at their grave giving them one more goodbye because she just felt like she had to and after everything that happened that night she was not sure that she would be standing there in a year's time.
And she walked away with Kaito quietly following her on her tail trying not to be noticed and hoping that she did not and he was smiling because he thought she really had not noticed. But she noticed this over an hour ago and she was headed to a secret meeting with 'Daredevil' with the police.
She was still going to kill him for kissing her and all for a stupid bet so that he could get rid of Hakuba out of her life so his secret would be kept more intact.
She did not want to think of the kiss because she did not kiss him back she did not kiss any of them back and she was feeling more confused than ever it just made her angrier than ever.
'I am so going to get him for everything that he has done' thought Shinichi as she turned the corner to meet with the others.
