2 - KIDnapped? - Shinichi's POV
"Wake up, Shinichi!" The voice sounded familiar, though he couldn't quite place it in his half-awakened state of mind.
His eyes flew open and he registered unfamiliar surroundings. The walls in the room were blue, a far cry from his own beige walls.
Several picture frames were hung along the wall. A brown haired boy was featured in all of them. The pictures ranged from age 3 to about age 17.
He finally turned away from the photographs and inspected the figure standing across the room. KID waved at him cheerily.
"You're finally awake!" KID said.
"Well it's your fault that I was asleep... the least you can do is wait." He grumbled. "How long was I out for?"
"Roughly 3 hours. You just wouldn't wake up." KID said then added worriedly. "Have you been getting enough sleep? Usually people wake up after 45 minutes."
His mind flashed back to the constantly recurring nightmares. "Conan!" She screamed and pushed him aside. He watched in horror as she was--
"No I've been sleeping fine." He answered as calmly as he could, suppressing the shudder that nearly overcame him.
"Why did you bring me here, anyways?" Shinichi asked.
"Well, as I recall..." KID said, pretending to be deep in thought. "You said that you were lonely."
"..I did." He said uncomfortably. "What of it?"
"I'm solving your problem!" KID exclaimed happily. Shinichi resisted the urge to hit the magician.
"How is this solving my problem?" He demanded.
"Well, I'm giving you a roommate!" KID explained, as if it was terribly obvious.
"A roommate? Don't tell me you're...?" Shinichi asked horror-stricken. KID nodded cheerfully and walked closer.
"Since we'll be roommates, I suppose I won't be able to hide who I m for very long so I'll just spare myself the trouble!" the thief said and snapped his fingers.
Instantly KID was enveloped in a cloud of glitter. A few moments passed and the glitter all fell to the floor leaving behind a teenager who looked an awful lot like Shinichi himself. The same boy from the pictures.
"Kuroba Kaito, magician extraordinaire at your service!" The teen exclaimed, flashing a grin that unmistakably belonged to KID.
"Kuroba... Kaito?" Shinichi asked slowly, still trying to figure out if this was another disguise or if it was really him, KID, behind all that messy brown hair.
"Something wrong with my name?" Kuroba inquired. He absently shook his head and swung his legs out of the bed he was lying on.
"No, I just think that whoever named you had a good sense of humor." He replied with a slight grin. Kuroba grinned widely.
"Well it suits me, doesn't it?" The thief said, laughing. "Even if the pun wasn't intentional."
"Well, yes." Shinichi admitted. "Though whoever named you could stand to be a little more tasteful. The name is ridiculous."
"Mind you, they didn't know I'd be a thief." Kuroba said with a wink. "Though I suppose they could have just guessed. Given who my parents are."
"The original Kaito KID and the Phantom Lady...?" Shinichi said, uncertainly. He hadn't ever really bothered to research the thief in depth. KID wasn't really a criminal in his opinion. He returned every single gem he stole.
"Yes, yes. Lovely isn't it? A house full of thieves!" Kuroba said with a giggle that would probably be considered insane by anyone but the detective. Shinichi knew that the thief's laughter didn't usually listen to him, becoming evil of its own accord.
"Well I wouldn't call it lovely but it certainly is interesting." Shinichi remarked."They wouldn't need to search for you, that's for sure."
"Yes, that's why we make a point of not getting caught." The thief said with infectious cheer. Kuroba was obviously mocking him, his eyes narrowed in
