Shinichi's POV (conan's POV):
Conan's phone is ringing, but I don't want to answer it, I want to continue with Kaito. The phone stops ringing, and I consider continuing, but then conan's phone rings again. Kaito and I both groan. It must be important to ring so persistently. I reluctantly peel myself away, annoyed at the interruption. AGAIN. I concentrate and I'm conan again (in my birthday suit). I pick up the phone answer, and sigh. It's akai San. (One of the three FBI agents who knew conan's real identity, the others being James black San and Jodie sensei.). (I remember when I took the antidote in front of them, their faces.....) Akai SAN speaks in English, making me frown.

      "Hello shinichi, I've just finished my job here in America, I know I'm early, but Okiya Subaru San would like to give you a hand again, if there's still a place for me." I grin. It will be nice having akai SAN protect hakase and haibara again. (They were still clueless as to Subaru sans real identity, but haibara could sense the black org about him). I glance at Kaito, who's looking at me in mock confusion. The thief is glaring at the phone, jealousy written clearly on his face. I put akai San on loudspeaker, and tell him as such. Neither of us seem to care that we were both naked.

     "Subaru San, your coming back? Can't wait for you to scare haibara again!" I grin childishly, glad he can't see me stood in my birthday suit. I hear a slight intake of breath as Kaito interrupts, akai San can clearly hear him.

      "Who are you? Why do you call Conan kun shinichi? What do you want?" Oh, right, I forgot to tell Kaito about the FBI seeing me change into shinichi and back to conan. Akai San replies calmly.

      "I'm a friend of cool kid, he helped me to start over by staging my murder." His cool comment makes me laugh, Kaito is clearly confused, like a puppy. I bid akai San goodbye, then hang up, explain what akai San knew, then got dressed in my conan clothes. Kaito is stood there, looking a bit disappointed. I grin, and unlock my bedroom door, getting bowled over by wolf chan as I open it. Damn, that dog is weird, even if you don't count her so called human intelligence.

Wolf's POV:
      I listen to the phone call, hearing every word. Eventually, they remember me, open the door, and let me in. I'm excited, I can't wait for the next heist, and I forget about everything else. Kaito kun is stood there, nothing on. I yelp with surprise, turn around, and run out of their room again. Curse my human like mind, I think to myself as I lie down under a table and cover my face with a large paw. I could just imagine what the two boys had been upto, and I wanted the thought out of my half dog, half human mind.

       "Wolf chan, daijoubu?" Kaito calls down to be. I whimper yelp back, not wanting to go near him for a bit. He's coming down the stairs, thankfully fully clothed now. Conan is following him, a sly grin on his face. I growl as Kaito crouches down, reaching a hand toward me. "It's ok wolf chan, I'm sorry, I almost forgot your basically human in dog clothing" He apologises softly, I stop growling, but won't let him touch me. I get up and walk stiffly towards the front door, opening it with my paws and heading towards shiho San, or ai chan's house. I want to leave these two love birds to themselves. I wish I'd stayed, because they later told me what was going to happen in the kid heist... fish, master Kaito had a phobia of fish, I chuff with laughter, this was going to be fun....

     Kaito's POV:
     Wolf chan stalked out of the house in a huff, the malamute clearly wasn't impressed with me. Shin~chan doesn't seem too bothered by wolf chans attitude, but he does seem excited about something.

     "Ne, Kaito, how're you going to pull this heist off? Your ichthyophobia is going to be a huge problem." Shin~chan (as conan) is smiling, the same smile his creepy okaasan had earlier. I haven't got a clue, but kaito kid can't decline a heist note, or admit to being afraid either.

    "Kaito, what if..." he pull my shirt until I crouch down, as he whispers his idea in my ear.

"Really shin~chan?" I ask incredulously. He nods. This plan might just work, if we can pull it off. But I'm going to need the help of both wolf chan, and Arthur kun. Arthur was a wild card, I never knew whether he would do as he was told or chew through the wire, rope or something again, (I fell halfway down a skyscraper once, because the unruly greyhound had been bored, and ate my safety line)

~~~~~~~~~time skip to the day of the heist~~~~~~~~~~

Aoko's POV:
     Kaito is seriously creeping me, and the rest of my class, out. He just sits there, doing something so....so un Kaito like. He just sits there, and behaves. Hakuba kun is getting edgy, everyone in the class, sensei too, is waiting for the inevitable prank, which never comes. It's like he's a completely different person, all serious and calm.... argggghhhhh, Kaito, your scaring me!

    I try to talk Kaito into going to the kid heist, not really expecting him to go, he never has before, and he surprisingly accepts the offer. Hakuba kun is glaring at him, and I can just read his lips. Kaitou kid. I produce the mop I hide in the class room, and whack hakuba kun over the head, screaming at him. "Hakubaka! Bakaito is not kid, why don't you listen!" He's not as nimble as Kaito, and I hit him with my mop several times, before sensei intervenes.

     "Aoko chan, I expect you and Kaito to fight, that's normal, but leave hakuba kun alone, he's done nothing wrong. He didn't even say anything." I swing towards her with my mop, and she backs off, allowing me to continue to attack hakuba kun with my mop. I continue to screech at him, forgetting the rest of the class are listening.

     "Kaito can't be kid, because kid is doing a heist tonight, in an aquarium. Kaito is terrified of.... ouch, BAKAITO!" I shriek, as I get hit by a flying ace of spades. I didn't even get a chance to I turn to Kaito, who's grinning mischievously, looking like his abnormal self again.

"What was that, ahoko?" He smiles sweetly, as he leaps from his desk, to hakuba kuns. His eyes are sparking, and I get the feeling something is about to happen. Poof. A flash of yellow smoke blinds everyone, when it clears, everyone is sporting neon colour hair and devil horns. Apart from akako, I notice he's never involved her in pranks. He seems scared of her. The rest of the day is back to normal, or as normal as it gets in our class. Kaito has put half a deck of playing cards on the ceiling, announcing half the girls colour of underwear, (I note he's left mine out, I was wearing the fish print ones again, hah!) a rainbow paint bomb exploding near hakuba kun when he tries to announce that Kaito is kaitou kid.

In a way I'm glad Kaito is back to being annoying, it was scary when he behaved, because nothing good ever came of it. I'm excited for the kid heist, because finally I'll be able to prove to hakuba kun once and for all Kaito isn't kid, once he sees Kaito's reaction to the aquarium, and kid and him in the same room, he'll have to believe they are different people. And why he thinks Kaito is kid I don't know, because kid is about the same age as otousan, so he's too old to be Kaito.

Conan's POV:
I was with ran and sonoko, waiting for the countdown for the heist. The detective boys were thankfully at home, haibara had promised to show them all the tricks her dog could do. Arthur kun was bright, for a dog, but wolf chan made him look stupid all the time. Sonoko and ran were excited too, both of them knew that 'shinichi' was kid's lover, but sonoko didn't care. She still adored her Kid Sama. Neither girl knew that 'Conan' was in on the heist plans. Ran had asked me earlier what shinichi had told me, and I'd replied in a childishly cheerful voice:
"Shinichi neechan loves kaitou kid, he told me so." Oh, god, I hated myself. As conan, I had to be a normal bratty child, but ran had slowly learnt that I wasn't exactly normal. She accepted my intelligence, but she didn't know I was shinichi yet.

"Right, Sonoko chan, ran chan, Conan kun, get into your places!" Nakamori keibu's voice echoed out. It had taken some considerable persuasion to make him let us help, but jiroki ojiisan had vouched for us, after the compulsory face pinch on the two girls. I grinned, no one suspected the kid killer of being an assistant of the infamous thief's.

A flash of white smoke appeared right on cue, kid in his white cape, white top hat, monocle, white suit and childish grin appearing once the smoke had cleared. Nakamori keibu yelled at his officers to get ready.....

"Ladies and gentlemen, tonight I will steal the oceans dream, but first....." Kaito announced, grinning. I kept a straight face, playing my part, no one knew I was in on kids plans. He threw a pink smoke grenade, sleeping gas, nakamori keibu, the annoying blond detective and jiroki ojiisan all produced masks, allowing them to stay awake, as predicted. Even lupin, jiroki ojiisan dog, is wearing a mask. In all the confusion, with the pink smokescreen as cover, (breathing mask firmly in place) I change into shinichi and swap places with Kaito, like we'd practiced. I was in an identical kaito kid costume, and I thanked my mother for my acting skills.

      Kaito gratefully changes into his normal clothes and appears by the sleeping girl that looked like ran. Nakamori keibu' daughter. He lies down, pretending to be asleep like the rest of them. Nakamori keibu rushes at me, hakuba waits calmly by the door, if I remember rightly, the half brit had correctly guessed kaitou kids identity, but Kaito kept denying it. He also knew of Kaito's ichthyophobia. I grin, in the same way kid does, the only one noticing the difference is lupin, whose biting at Kaito's arm. Kaito is trying hard not to swat the dog away, I see his hand twitch, not noticeable, unless you are hakuba kun. He strides over to Kaito and pokes him roughly in the side with his shoe. Kaito doesn't move, but hakuba kun clearly isn't convinced. I laugh suddenly, drawing hakuba kuns attention away from Kaito, who sighs quietly with relief.

      "Hakuba tantei, do you really think that I'd display magic with such careless abandon as that boy?" I ask loudly, Nakamori keibu and jiroki ojiisan paused, waiting to see what 'kaitou KID' would do. I wait for hakuba kuns reply.

       "This must be a trick, that boy" he says as he points to Kaito, "that boy cant be Kuroba kun, because you are." He says this as more of a statement that a question. I grin. Knowing I can't pull this off without Kaito. He stretches suddenly, drawing everyone's attention away from the huge aquarium, yawning, he looks about him. Kaito and I are the only ones that notice wolf kun as she leaps into the soundproofed tank, grabs the jewel and clambers out again.

      "Ah le? What's all this?" He says lazily, getting up and shaking his head. He catches a glimpse of me, and, as per the plan, proceeds to shoot cards at me with his hands. The lights cut out, allowing me to escape, but Nakamori is shouting loudly for the lights to be turned back on. When the lights are restored, Kaitou KID is nowhere to be seen, and neither is conan. Everyone is starting to wake up as Nakamori keibu Pursues KID upstairs. I'm actually conan again, hiding behind one of the sleeping policemen.

       By now, the two old men and the irritating British detective have noticed that the oceans dream is gone, kaito kid still dry. They don't care, catching KID was their priority.

      I can see hakuba kun glaring at the frowning magician, he still thinks Kaito is KID? Ok, then, wolf chan had the oceans dream anyway, I grin and run out from my hiding place, nearly tripping hakuba kun up as I do, chasing after Nakamori keibu, pretending to chase after KID. Once out of sight, I let out a childish scream, shout the words no! Don't!change into shinichi, and hit myself with a sleep dart from my own watch. (Glad I had a clip of darts now, I might need the extra darts later).

       Hakuba's POV:
      Kuroba kun is still suspicious, even if I have seen both Kaitou KID and him in the same room. He could have hired an actor to be him after all, it wouldn't surprise me, he had enough fans to pick from after all. I'm glaring at Kuroba kun, as that Conan boy runs into me, tripping me up. He disappears out of the room, his scream ringing out exactly five seconds and thirty two milliseconds later.

     "No! Don't!" His voice sounds terrified, the kid can't be acting. I rush out of the room, only to trip up once again, this time over someone lying on the floor. It's not one of the police officers, but a face I recognise from the papers. My idol, the person who made me want to be a teen detective too. It's the high school detective of the east, Kudo Shinichi, he's out cold. There's blood on his arm, it looks like a dog's bite mark. I bend down to check the other teen detective's vitals, it looks like he's breathing, but it's so slight, I can't tell.

       "Oi, Hakuba no yãro, move it." Kuroba kun orders, shoving me aside. He crouches down beside the other teen. I blink. I've never noticed it before, but Kuroba kun looks almost identical to kudo shinichi..... could shinichi sama be kaito kid then? And where was Conan kun? I heard the boy scream with fright....   Kuroba kun purses his lips and whistles loudly, a huge white dog appearing. It's the same one from the other heist. Kuroba kun pats the dog and asks it for something. The dog, it looks like a skinny malamute, barks with joy and races off again.

         "That dog was trained by shin~chan, to catch and track people, kind of like your horrible parrot." He explains teasingly. I glare angrily at him, Watson was not a parrot, he was a Harris hawk. Wait, did Kuroba kun just call kudo sama shin~chan? "Tsk, shin~chan, this is no time to snooze, they got away again!" He whisper shouts at the unconscious detective. Kudo sama wakes up, and shakes his head.

       "Conan kun..... where is he?" The other detective asks me. My idol asked me a question? Kuroba kun answers, a strange note in his cheerful voice.

      " he went after KID, we heard his scream, then we find you sleeping on the floor. And why do you have such a nasty bite to your arm?" Kudo sama shakes his head.

      "Wolf chan bit me, the criminal had me by the arm, he hit me on the head, and wolf chan went for him. She made him let go of me. Did he get conan then?" Panic rising in the famous detectives voice. The big dog is returning, a small cloth bag in its jaws.

      "Arigato gozaimas, wolf chan" kudo sama tells the dog, handing the big animal a treat from his pocket. The animal drops the bag into Kuroba kuns hand and accepts the treat, wagging its long tail. Kuroba kun opens the bag, removing small first aid kit. Kudo sama sits there quietly, after ordering the dog to go on ahead. Would a dog even know what that meant? Kuroba kun treats Kudo sama's bite wound, and hugs the detective. I take a step back. What was going on?

      "Would someone care to explain all this to me?" I demand, conscious that kaitou KID has probably already escaped. The two look-alikes look at me and smile the same, terrible, cheeky grin.

      "You think I'm KID? Why don't you ask conan when you find him? He knows KID's real identity!" Kuroba kun laughs.

     "Why detective? Can't figure it out on your own?" Kudo sama says in fluent English. I stare at him. I'd heard many things about my idol, but nothing about his language skills. Nakamori keibu comes charging back down the stairs, claiming that kid had gotten away, and had kept the jewel. Unusual, why would KID keep a jewel? He'd always returned what he stole. Kuroba kun and Kudo sama excused themselves, and disappeared. I report conan kuns disappearance to Nakamori keibu, who immediately calls megure keibu, apparently 'megure is almost as fond of conan kun as he is of that brat detective'. I can't believe how calm Kudo sama was though, he knows conan kun it seems, but he's not worried about an apparent kidnapping?

     Kaito's POV:
       Well, wolf chan got the jewel safely, and shin~chan was safe. He'd acted his part beautifully, improvising when he woke up, to find that wolf chan had bitten him. Smart dog, but I wasn't pleased she'd drawn blood. Once safely out of hakubaka's way, wolf chan sat down and scratched at her collar. The large jewel was tied to it. The knot was like the one jiichan used, so I guess wolf chan went to him before answering my whistle. We are walking hand in hand down the dark street, heading towards his house, as it was closer. I hold the oceans dream up to the light, it shining a clear blue, not turning red much to my disappointment, it's not pandora, so I'll send it back tomorrow.

      Wolf chan suddenly tenses, growling threateningly. Shin~chan and I duck down, narrowly missing being shot. Wolf chan is crouched low to the floor, her white teeth shining in a ferocious snarl. There's someone all in black, with long silver hair and cold merciless eyes. He's holding a gun I can't see clearly in his left hand. A well built man, who's shorter than the cold eyed one, is stood next to him. Gin, vodka. I hear shin~chan whisper in fear.

"Aniki, who was that?" The shorter one asks.

   "Vodka, that was kudo shinichi, I thought I'd killed him a long time ago.... maybe he managed to spit the pill out." The voice makes me shudder, there's no emotion there, just cold cruelty. Wolf chan is still growling, creeping towards the two men. They don't even look at her, maybe they hadn't noticed her yet. So, the thin one must be Gin, and the shorter one is vodka. Shin chan is gripping my arm with fright. I've never seen him scared before, not even when he jumped off  that tower with only a skateboard and a pair of suspenders. Wolf chan is within leaping distance, they still haven't noticed. I'm glad shin~chan and I are both wearing black, it makes us harder to see.

    Wolf chan springs up, grabbing vodka by the knee. She's biting down with a horrible crunching sound, snarling fiercely. Gin swings round and fires many shots at wolf chan, hitting her each time. She doesn't yelp, or flinch, but she lets go and turns on the bigger man, grabbing his gun hand in her mouth and literally biting it off. I can't take it anymore, I want to run away as fast as I can, but shin~chan is still holding tight to my arm, frozen to the spot in fear. I can't leave him. Gin roars with pain, turning and running towards a black Porsche parked further down the street. Vodka is on the floor, unable to move. It seems his leg is broken. Vodka pulls a gun from his pocket, and fires towards us, again and again. I guess he could see our shadows. I shield shin~chan with my body, trying to protect him. I feel the first bullet, then the second. I hear something....

CRACK!

another gunshot is heard, this time from further away. I don't feel the third, or fourth bullet, because I'm out cold. I'm glad, I've protected shin~chan, I'm happy.....I'm..... so.......glad......... then nothing. Just oblivion.

Shinichi (conan's) POV:
          We were almost home when they shot at us. Wolf chan crept towards them and attacked, taking Gins hand of with a nasty snap and twist of her jaws. She's bitten vodka too, breaking his leg, I can see part of the femur poking through the skin. That dog must be brave, or crazy like Kaito. She's been shot several times, but doesn't seem bothered. Can this huge dog even feel pain? Gin recognised me. Shit. Shit shit shit. He'd seen me. Gin turned tail and fled in his black Porsche after wolf chan bit him, but vodka was still there, he pulled a small revolver from his pocket, firing at our shadowy bulk repeatedly. I'm too scared to move. Maybe I just wanted it to be over, for then to finally get what they wanted. My corpse. I hear a sharp cracking sound as someone snipes Vodka. Who?

         I flinch, waiting for the inevitable pain and my end. It doesn't come, instead I hear soft cries from Kaito as he shields me. NO. NO. Kaito! Oh, god, oh god, oh god. Wolf chan is still holding the severed hand in her jaws, the gun firmly in the hands grip. I worry briefly about wolf chan, but with the bullets in her and Kaito, bullets that matched the gun, it was safe to say they'd class it as protecting her master and not a vicious act. Hopefully. I'm cradling the unconscious Kaito in my arms, whilst calling for an ambulance. He's bleeding too much, I have to stem the bleeding. I tear off my shirt, putting it onto the worst wound, pressing down to slow the bleeding.

    Wolf chan drops Gins severed hand and my feet, then races off, returning with a bag of Kaito's clothes he'd left at mine in case of an emergency. I don't care. I'm cold but I don't care. The ambulance is taking too long to arrive, they're going to be too late. Kaito's breathing is harsh and halting, his body has gone into shock. I use a clean shirt from his bag to stem the bleeding of another obvious hole, but it's not working, blood is seeping out of the other two bullet holes just as fast. Finally the ambulance arrives, they load him up and try to insist I stay for the police, but I refuse. I'm not leaving Kaito, not a chance. I ask them the name of the nearest hospital, knowing that wolf chan would follow us. Beika General. Hold on kaito, please, hold on. The ambulance crew ask me what happened, but I can't tell them. I want to speak, but the burning lump of fear In my chest won't let me.

    They rush Kaito into emergency surgery, by now the staff have realised I'm not speaking. A doctor checks me over, notes my bite mark, which I explain way by scribbling a note on a scrap of paper (I pulled two fighting dogs apart with my bare hands like the Baka I was.), and concludes that I'm in good health, I'm just in mild shock. I'm not shocked, I want to scream, I'm terrified, I don't want to lose him. I text ran, Doyle kun (as hattori was now being called, he was still on missing persons list) hakuba kun and the girl Kaito was friends with, nakamori Aoko. I tell then that Kaito is In beika General hospital, and to come at once.

   ran and Doyle are the first to arrive, shortly followed by hakuba kun and nakamori San. Doyle rushes up to me and asks what's going on, but I still can't answer. I point towards the surgery doors, tears falling down my cheeks. Ran guesses who Kaito is by my reaction, as does Doyle, (well, hattori is smart) but Nakamori San and hakuba kun don't know me well, so they are concerned for me.

     "Oi, shinichi neechan, why ain't ya talkin'?" Doyle asks me. I'm spared from answering as the surgeon exits the room and walks toward us. He asks for the boy who came here with the patient. I stand up and nod, showing them who I was. He takes me to a private room to explain.

     "Usually we would talk to his parents, but we can't get ahold of them, so I'm half going against rules here, and I'm going to explain to you instead. Your kudo shinichi aren't you?" I nod, I try to speak, but can't, the huge knot of worry is too tight in my chest. "We managed to remove four bullets, and he's stable now...." he trails off waiting for my reply. I nod, showing I understand. "However, he's lost a severe amount of blood. I'm afraid we haven't got any B type left here, it was used in the last surgery, I'm so sorry, but without a transfusion in the next four hours, he won't make it." I still can't speak, my voice won't come, but I sit there, shaking silently. I'm crying, the tears streaming down my face. I love Kaito, but how can I find a suitable blood match in less than four hours when I can't speak?

I walk out of the small office, back to the others. I'm not even bothering to hide my tears now. Kaito is moved from the operating theatre to an intensive care unit, all of us following. Hakuba kun is pale, from what I've heard about him, he's a detective who doesn't like blood, nakamori San is crying too, and ran and Sonoko are trying to comfort me. Doyle is looking at me with concern on his face. I want to scream at them, to tell them to leave me alone, I need to find someone with the same blood type, but I can't. Suddenly, a loud noise makes us look towards the stairs. Two nurses and a doctor are chasing a big red stained white dog, who's charging towards us. It's wolf chan, she has something in her mouth.
