Shinichi has no idea how he ended up in this situation.
It isn't even the first time Shinichi has ended up in a situation like this.
But he's been kidnapped for information on Kaitou KID. They seem to have set their hopes pretty high as well seen as they're hoping to use him as bait to kidnap KID himself.
They took him on his walk home from the station. He had felt someone following him but he didn't notice there was three of them until one of them had hit him round the head with a metal bat. He woke up with a blinding headache, but still managed to take in enough information on the situation.
Firstly, that they wanted KID and they were planning to use Shinichi to get him.
Secondly, that they hadn't taken the emergency GPS tracker he has attached to his keys. It was a present from Satou on his first birthday after joining Division 1 and he'll never say that she was overexaggerating his ability to get into danger again.
Thirdly, that they're in an abandoned building somewhere between Beka and Ekoda. There's only three people in the room with him, his kidnappers. Their team is made up of ten people though and the rest of them seem to be assigned to either recon or watch duty.
The first kidnapper starts walking over to him, leaving the little huddle the other two are still standing in, at the side of the room. Shinichi hopes that Megure has noticed the distress signal by now, because they did have the sense to take his phone.
Kidnapper number one, stops right in front of the chair they've tied Shinichi to. "So. Where is KID now?"
Shinichi shakes his head. "I haven't the faintest idea."
A fourth person walks in to the room, joining the other two on the sidelines. They watch him for a second before shrugging and returning their attention to him. "Is that credible?"
The man leans closer to him and Shinichi tries to lean away from the man's breath. "It's the truth."
Leaning even closer, the man stares at him. "You're the man he loves."
A laugh escapes Shinichi at that. "No I'm not."
He sees the group of men step closer to the first kidnapper, probably in an effort to make him feel intimidated. "You're lying. You are the man that KID loves."
Shinichi turns his head back to him to look at him properly, ignoring the way the mans fowl breath hits his face properly now. "KID does not and never has loved me. I'm not lying."
The man leans away from him. "Impossible. This is a trick."
He should find a way to differentiate these men. Calling them all 'kidnapper' and just adding a number after it isn't very concise. "No I'm not."
Kidnapper (the one currently interrogating him) takes a step back and looks at his associates. His associates he's going to name Attacker (the one who knocked him out), Watcher (the one who's done nothing to him so far) and Guard (the one who was assumingly on guard duty for the building before he came up here to watch his interrogation). "My information is correct! You are the man who loves KID."
Guard turns to him curiously at that statement, but Shinichi is too busy talking. "Yes I am. I've never denied it. But whoever said he loved me back?" He turns to Kidnapper to glare at him. "He's KID the Phantom Thief. He doesn't go around falling in love with people, and if you think he's anything that small or that ordinary then you haven't the faintest idea of who you're dealing with."
Kidnapper turns away from him again in a seeming panic to look at Attacker. "Boss, I assure you." So Attacker is the boss, well that's a good bit of information to have. "He is the perfect bait. When this man is in danger, KID will always come."
Shinichi shakes his head in annoyance. "Oh you are a moron. No he won't!"
"He's probably already here."
"No he isn't of course he isn't."
"Possibly already in the building."
Shinichi yells out in annoyance. "Well go on, search it then! Go on why don't you?" Guard whispers his name, possibly trying to get him to stop antagonising their boss but oh well. "Messy hair, stupid grin, you can't miss him." Guard whispers his name again, stepping slightly closer to him. "Go on! Search the whole building! He's not here. God knows where he is right now, but I promise you he is doing whatever the hell he wants and not giving a damn about me. And I'm fine with that." Guard keeps moving steadily closer to him, taking small steps one at a time until he's stood right beside Kidnapper in front of his chair. "When you love KID it's like loving the stars themselves. You don't expect a sunset to admire you back. And if I happen to find myself in danger, let me tell you KID is not stupid enough or sentimental enough and certainly not in love enough to find himself standing in it with me!"
Guard takes one step closer to his chair, and Shinichi can finally see him. The hair isn't his, he's wearing a wig. But his eyes are that definite shade of blue that look purple in just the right light. It's him. KID came for him. KID just heard him confess his love for him to his kidnappers. "Hey Meitantei."
In an attempt to hide his blush, Shinichi looks away immediately. "Oh I am so going to arrest you when we get out of here."
KID finally steps in front of the other men and pulls a knife out of his pocket to cut the ropes holding him. "Arrest me at sunset?"
Shinichi turns his head to glare at him. "Don't you dare."
A smile stretches on KID's face. "I'll have to ask the stars themselves."
Stretching his wrists once they're freed, Shinichi starts shaking his head at the thief. "Oh shut up. I was just keeping them talking until I was found."
The Boss takes a step forwards as KID kneels to cut his legs free. "What is this conversation? What are you talking about?"
Shinichi turns to look at him as his left leg is freed. "You stay out of this."
KID looks up at him as his right leg is freed as well. "We need to get to work."
Nodding his head as KID stands up, Shinichi looks up at him. "Okay, what have you got?"
Knowing that Shinichi's legs are probably a little dead after being tied so tightly, KID helps him stand up out the chair. Not that he can blame them for tying his legs so tight, his detective has some extremely powerful kicks. "There's one exit to this room, three ways out of the building from there."
Shinichi nods his head towards the window. "There's also the window behind us."
"No I don't like it."
"Too easy to shoot us?"
"I don't have my hang glider."
Shinichi casts a glance over at him. "Window's out then. Luckily there isn't too many people in the building."
Kidnapper tries to grab on to Shinichi but he snaps his leg out to kick him away. Over the room's silence, you can hear sirens faintly in the distance so Shinichi looks over to KID. "You should escape now while you can."
KID looks over at him with a smile. "You had a plan."
A scoff escapes him at that. "Of course I did."
The Boss takes a step closer to them both. "When did you call the police? We took your phone from you."
Shinichi smirks at him. "I'm a detective. I go toe to toe with KID on a regular basis. I have a few tricks up my sleeve as well."
