kaitouFor Ysabet who asked for a drabble with Kaitou Kid and a walking catfish. I can't help but think she got me confused with Icka, but what the hey. Again, sorry there's no LJ cut, I'll fix that when I'm home from work.
Hakuba was annoyed. And so, when Kaitou Kid sent out a notice declaring that he was going to stea the Millenium Opal, Hakuba was bound and determined that he wasn't going to get it. He wasn't going to let the thief even get close. And if he had to play dirty to do it, so be it.
Which was why on the night of the heist the opal was laying on a spot of dry land in the middle of a huge fish tank at the Shiga Prefectural Freshwater Aquarium. There were no chains or tricks, the opal was just sitting there on the ground, waiting to be taken.
"You must be getting pretty desperate, Detective" said a smooth voice behind him.
Kaitou Kid appeared ad easily vaulted over the glass, standing on the spot of dry ground. "I'm not THAT scared of them you know. Maybe if you stuck it IN the tank, but this way I don't even have to risk touching a fish."
Hakuba smirked, "Is that so?" and he pointed near the thief's shoe
Kaitou Kid looked down at the God-Awful monster of a fish that had heaved itself Out Of The Water and was...hell...WALKING towards him! "Holy Shit! What the HELL is that!?" He yelped, flailing backwards.
"Walking Catfish," Hakuba said calmly. He raised his walkie talkie, "Inspector Nakamori! Ready the Flying Fish!"
"I'm going to get you for this."
Hakuba's smirk widened, "I'd like to see you try."

Kinda wondering about what exactly that says, and if we should be worried... o_O
That aside, this had me rolling. Of course, by commenting that he's not that afraid of fish, he's practically telling Hakuba that he really is Kaito.
But man... flying fish... *Howls!* have this odd mental image of the officers tossing flying fish like paper airplanes.

No, they'd have in wicker boxes with doors that can spring open. Inside, the flying-fish haven't been fed for days.
And then come the dolphins with lazers on their noses.
