Catch me if you can__ Kudo Shinichi with Kaito Kid

Chapter 1

"Now I am going to catch you."

Those were the words Kudo Shinichi said before. Nevertheless, Kid never showed up despite the long waiting Kudo had in past few months, despite the gossip and discussions spread like wild fire, despite all sorts of fallacy fighting about what really happened that night and where did he left. Kid took French leave, which completed a marvelous story without the main character.

Kudo still remember the night that washed away Conan's identity, bringing back the famous high school detective but also removing every sign of Kid brick by brick.

As a well-known detective, Kudo had been there many times in being parted with life and separated by death, he had seen so many scene of love and despair, realizing that life was only one-night stand, but seldom did he really get in part of this thing, he used to be the bystander, used to solve the case, but this sort of things just never happened to him. On the other hand, becoming Conan by accident gave him the bonding between he and Ran in cases and crises one after another, this somehow connected them to a full part. Then what? The celebrated had returned, with shocking news exposed on TV and newspaper, research told us that Kudo had been involved in Black organization in order to crack the case, the genius beside detective Mori was actually the real person all the time. Soon after, those journalists found the fun fact that Kaito Kid had been disguised as Kudo, while the fake one imitating himself as the detective, the real one was in a child's body tried to arrest Kid. 

" So you are the one that put Kid in danger." In the other side of the phone, Hakuba drained any emotion and feelings from his cruel voice.

"Wow, you do know how to bury the lead." Heiji Hattori retorted back." So you blame Kid's accident on him? Kudo hadn't done something wrong, OK?!"

"......No, Hatorri, He's right. " Kudo took back his phone from Hatorri's hand. "I am truly the one who killed Kid. I......I could have stopped him, you know......I could just stop him from going to the field and stealing the cure. I rather stay in Conan's body forever then put Kid in danger. I should warn him.....So that he wouldn't get hurt. He's not dead, he's not dead. " Even as a atheism, Kudo began to pray, he chanted like these words were spell which could bring Kid back to him.

" I apologize. " Hakuba finally let out a sigh. " That wasn't your decision. In fact the one who shoot him to death is not you. And saving you was Kid's choice. You couldn't stop him even you had noticed his plan. "

" He is not dead yet." Kudo whispered. 

" I hope you were right. Congratulation, Kudo. Welcome back to your old life." Hakuba's voice sounded so tired and frustrated. Kudo could hear the bell rings from the big ben in London, it already passed midnight there. " I am going to find him." Kudo said. 

He is not dead yet.....He is not dead yet..... He is not dead yet!!!

Gloomy were those who lost their precious religions, such as Kudo, started to wonder whether justice was the only sacred target he pursued. How many times he let go that arrogant thief ? How many times he helped Kid defeat the bad guys? How many times Kid and Conan worked like ally. How many times Kid risked his life to save him in dire straits? Kudo Shinichi couldn't be sure the time their relationship began complicated, not just nemesis, they were more than enemies. So what were they? Kudo couldn't be sure. Even though he promised he would catch Kid, he failed without annoying or sadness every time. Maybe they were not just enemies anymore.

  Kudo opened the widow, raindrops poured directly on his face. If it were not for Kid's help, Kudo would still be Conan, still force himself act like an innocence child. Now, he was back, Kid was gone. Please, let the rain grew stronger, like the way they treated to Kid that day. Then the window was shut down with a thunk.

" What the fuck are you thinking? Huh?!" In front of Kudo was Miyano Shiho, whose eyes sparkled with tears and rage. She was gonna exploded anytime. " Miyano .....why are you here?" Kudo sounded like a toddler in big trouble. "Why am I here?" She was too angry to control her body not to trembling. " How dare you do this? What are you thinking? Kudo!"

" I just......I only want to watch the moon." Frail excuses, untenable lies.

"Watch the moon. Hahaha......So now you even dispense the excuses huh?" She laughed with tears. Waiting for Miyano Shiho's scolds, waiting for her verbal attack that maybe forced him to come to himself, waiting for someone shouting at him for his incurable depression. Instead, Miyano Shiho stared at him, her fist was too shivering with cracking sound.

" Is this what he want?" She asked softly. " He returned the old life to you by sacrificing himself. And that is how you repay him. Don't you?" Miyano Shiho shacked her head tried to shacked something away from her mind.

" Fine, I can't control you because you are not the same boy named Conan anymore. Here, someone left you a note downstairs. I am surprised she didn't take my life."

" Vermouth?! What is she doing here?"

" She wanted to give you a message. What's more, she warned you not to involve in any of black organization's cases anymore, which I agree it too."

" Did she hurt you?"

"No, she told me as an old friend."

Kudo received the note. Water drops blurred his sight.

'It was too late. You have been missed the chance of meeting him from the start.'
