Kaito felt sick as he and Shinichi waited in silence, they were in their hotel room, along with the girl they'd just bought. The girl had thankfully been given some simple clothes at the sleuth's request, though the way he'd asked had left a sour taste in their mouths. Stating that it'd be more fun to take away the clothes in private, to snatch away a false safety, had made Kiritsu delighted. They were actually waiting for the girl to wake up since she'd been drugged for transport "I feel disgusting" The magician bit out, fiddling his hands together nervously.

"Same" Shinichi agreed, sharing his unease "I know that we did it to save her..." He trailed off, grimacing "But the fact that we had to buy her to do it..." They'd been forced to watch helplessly as she'd been ruthlessly struck by a needle and bound before being placed in a suitcase that was apparently designed to transport small children. The fact that such an item existed was sickening, but it had at least allowed them to take her to safety without being followed. The girl's bonds had been swiftly removed moments after they'd returned, Kaito had taken great pleasure in destroying the ropes.

"I can't wait until we can take that place down" Kaito's tone was dark, promising "When we're done with it, I want to torch the place" It'd been built to hold humans, that much was obvious. They'd only seen bits and pieces of it, and he was sure that there was a lot more.

Shinichi couldn't help the small smile that tugged at his lips "I wouldn't complain if you did that" He paused, eyeing the other "Just don't leave any evidence of it pointing towards you" Movement from the other side of the room caught their attention, making them fall silent.

The girl had shifted a bit in her place in the far corner. She'd been placed there since a bed would probably give her the wrong impression, that and Kaito had informed him that corners were great at giving off a sense of safety. One couldn't be snuck up on if they were in a corner so it was a great defensive location.

Kaito moved a bit closer, but left a few feet between himself and the girl. He then lowered himself so that he was sitting on his knees, with his hands tucked between his calves and thighs, it was a position that he couldn't move from as easily compared to other positions. He wouldn't be able to reach her without getting up first. They'd decided that Kaito could be the one to approach since he was better with people than the sleuth.

The girl shifted again, this time tensing as her eyes slid open, revealing wary slate coloured eyes. Her gaze flickered between the two strange males, instantly recognizing them as the ones who'd bought her "I'm Kuroba Kaito" The one closest to her spoke, she narrowed her eyes, she wasn't going to let herself be fooled by the nice guy act "Me and my friend brought you here to save you" The guy had a deceptively nice voice, void of threats "We work for the police" Oh she'd met plenty of policemen before...

"I don't know what to say next" Kaito stated, turning his gaze towards Shinichi, the mention of the police had actually made the girl more tense instead of relaxed.

Shinichi offered a small smile, keeping his distance "We are undercover agents working on taking that place down" He ducked his head in apology "We're sorry for acting so creepy before, we had to be convincing"

"Oh" She tilted her head, not believing them. She wasn't restrained, so she just had to play good and wait for her chance "I don't know what to think" She intentionally bumped her shoulder against a nightstand, making the decorative vase on top fall, shattering into a bunch of pieces "Sorry" She lowered her head "The drug makes it hard to move"

Kaito had to stop himself from frowning, the girl was lying about it being an accident "It's fine" He smiled warmly, wondering if she was testing him, to see if he'd punish her. It was hard to guess really "That thing was ugly anyways" It really was.

The sleuth snorted at Kaito's words "My name is Kudo Shinichi"

Nodding, she offered a small smile, fingers wrapping around a piece of the vase when the two males shared a look between each other. She wasn't going to let these guys use her, she was done with that. Before they turned their attention back towards her, she lunged, jabbing the glass into the closest one's right eye before recoiling back, out of reach. The magician yelped in pain, curling in on himself a bit, hand clutching at where the glass was still embedded in him. He'd been unable to react in time due to how he'd been sitting.

"Kaito!" Concerned, Shinichi rushed over, kneeling beside his friend.

"I'm fine..." Kaito grit out, hissing a bit. His false eye was totalled, and the crushed pieces hurt! "It wasn't my good eye"

Azure widened, horrified that Kaito had come so close to becoming blind "Move your hand, let me see the damage" Kaito was already bleeding a fair amount.

The girl was trembling as she slowly moved towards the door, scared that they'd notice her, that they'd take out their anger against her "Please don't go" Against her better judgement, she froze. The one she'd hurt was waving away the other male's concerned hands, focusing his gaze on her, the gaze was a kind one. He smiled "I'm not mad, I might have even done the same if I were you" He sounded pained "My ego has taken the most damage though, out-sped by a child" He huffed.

Shinichi clicked his tongue, giving Kaito a nice whack on the shoulder "You idiot" The words were harsh, but his tone was soft.

"I'm fine" Just in pain, why did head injuries have to bleed so much? At least he'd already lost his eye years ago.

"Why aren't you attacking me?" She was trembling, frozen with fear.

Me: So Kaito's eye got busted~ I wanted to write that for so long now~

I was tempted to have her punch him in the crotch, but I was somewhat merciful? Maybe

Hope you enjoyed~

•3• My rats are spoiled, I bought them sticks... And fancy mixed rat food to spread around the cage for treats XP

Why buy overpriced treats when healthy rat food works just as well?

Since I have more than one rat, I like pellet diets, makes sure they get full nutrition~ So mixed food is for treats only~
