I own nothing. My 100th story! 8D Yay!


"RED-san."

Phantom Thief RED turned his sight away from the beautiful skyline to see a familiar figure. White suit and cape, completed with a silk tophat and a clover monocle. It was an outfit so very similar to his own, though that wasn't a surprise. After all they were in the same profession.

"KID," Red greeted. "What brings you to the states?"

The Moonlight Magician gave him a grin. "A heist of course. This is merely a formal courtesy to tell you I'm here as you've seen to declare the States as your newest home."

"Of course. I have no problem with that. How are the Tanteis? Little Tantei-kun still following you around?"

"Oh they're doing fine. Yup, Chibi Tantei-kun is still following me around," Kid said with a grin. "Rumor on the street is you have you have your eye on a certain ruby princess."

Red laughed. "Well yes. But said princess is being protected by a loyal knight. If you get the chance to meet them, please do. Tell them Red sends his greeting. Be careful. Little Knight might give your Tantei-kun a run for his money."

Kid smirked. "Brilliant."


"Star City's police have received a notice yesterday," Batman started the briefing. The team stood by patiently.

A note appeared on the screen next to Batman.

465637
Let's ring in the New Year. Under the waterfalls, I'll take the rare blue.
Kaito KID

Superboy frowned. "What does all mean?"

"New Year?" Megan questioned. "But it's already May."

"There is no way he'll announce his heist this early. Chances are he's like RED and means something else," Robin concluded.

"Precisely," Batman agreed. A picture of a Japanese man wearing a green suit appeared on the screen. "This is Inspector Ginzo Nakamori. He is the head of the Kaitou KID taskforce, the police division dedicated to capturing Kaitou KID."

The picture then flickered to a small Japanese boy wearing large glasses, a tall Japanese man smoking a cigarette, and teenage girl with brown hair.

"This is Conan Edogawa, Kogoro Mouri and Ran Mouri," Batman continued. "Our sources tell us that they are in the States. Kogoro is a famous Japanese detective known as the Sleeping Kogoro. This is his daughter, Ran and their current ward Conan."

"So he'll probably be helping with the police," Wally said.

Batman shook his head. "No. The child is."

The team stared back at Batman. "That kid isn't even old enough to be out of Elementary School! What is he doing helping the police?" Artemis shouted.

"Apparently," Batman interrupted the archer's tirade, "he has successfully stopped several of KID's attempts in the past. He and the Mouris are in the States for vacation when they received this message."

Another note appeared on the screen. This time though it was written in Japanese. The English translation though floated above the Japanese writing.

Up for a challenge Little Detective?
We'll have the city all to ourselves as our playground.
That unless the little knight and ruby princess want to take their hands at joining our stage.

Wally twitched. "I'm going to kill Red."
