[Kaito's Heart]

[soulping]

[A gust of wind rushes past you, so strong that you nearly stumble backwards from the force. You hear whispers in your ear, an unfamiliar voice saying, no, not here, not now, go back, before your senses shut off entirely]

[You wake up again to find yourself in a room]

..........oh I can't do it!

I jut found out recently, and Kaito asked me to keep it a secret from you, okay?! But I can't... look. You already figured it out, right?!

Re: TO NEW HEIGHTS (DOVE)

[clocksandroses]

[And without another word, she strides to the edge of the roof and tries to pick out a good route to get to that sparkly thing.]

Re: TO NEW HEIGHTS (DOVE)

[fuhrinkaed]

Um... The hat seems to increase bounciness and stuff. I could. Probably jump.

Re: TO NEW HEIGHTS (DOVE)

[clocksandroses]

[Quietly, but firmly, in a voice that fairly aches with disappointment.]

We should split up. Go for the door, okay? See if you can find any more keys.

Re: TO NEW HEIGHTS (DOVE)

[fuhrinkaed]

Alright...

...

Sorry. And uh. [Holding out the police badge.] This might mean something to you, since you know him. So... Y'know. Here.

Re: TO NEW HEIGHTS (DOVE)

[clocksandroses]

[. . . gingerly reaches out to touch it, like it might bite.]

Re: TO NEW HEIGHTS (DOVE)

[fuhrinkaed]

[Whether or not it triggers the voice for her, Vetoed is going to be bounding off to that sparkly door via the telephone poles etc, using the athleticism and the glider.]

Re: TO NEW HEIGHTS (DOVE)

[carptricks]

[With your athleticism power up, you reach the door no problem]

[As soon as your feet touch the concrete rooftop, the sound of a helicopter's propellers beating the air reaches your ears and a beam of light catches your figure from above. A helicopter? When did that get there?]

Stop right there, K----- ---!

[. . . ? The name is blanked out. Are they talking to you?]

Re: TO NEW HEIGHTS (DOVE)

[fuhrinkaed]

[Kaitou Kid, you say? Alright then, let's act!]

Waaaaaaaaaaahahahahahaha! There's no way you can stop the great phantom thief, Kaitou Kid!

[He tilts the hat over his head, FLOURISHES HIS CLOAK, and goes through the door.]

Re: TO NEW HEIGHTS (DOVE)

[carptricks]

[. . . THE DOOR IS SECURED WITH TWO PADLOCKS]

[The voice continues, gruff and confident, and there are met in riot gear climbing out of the helicopter via rope now]

Wahahahaha! Tonight is the night your reign ends! We've got your cornered!

Re: TO NEW HEIGHTS (DOVE)

[fuhrinkaed]

[...CRAP. WELL, BLUSTER.]

We'll see about that...

AOKO! THROW ME YOUR KEY!

Re: TO NEW HEIGHTS (DOVE)

[carptricks]

[. . . the police badge triggers something, a voice in his ear that sounds a lot like a confident braggart]

Ha ha ha. . . great work, Inspector! I didn't know she loved cats so much! My plan are always ruined when you're around!

[Aoko also gets feelings of respect and. . . a touch of guilt?]

Re: TO NEW HEIGHTS (DOVE)

[clocksandroses]

[. . . okay no she's just going to clutch that to her chest for a moment and try to breathe around the sudden huge lump in her throat.]

[sucks in deep, ragged breaths until the feeling passes . . .]

Re: TO NEW HEIGHTS (DOVE)

[carptricks]

[She can take as long as she needs]

Re: TO NEW HEIGHTS (DOVE)

[clocksandroses]

[It takes a minute, but eventually she breathes freely again . . . and though part of her is tempted to throw the badge to the ground, she looks around for a better place to put it instead.]

Re: TO NEW HEIGHTS (DOVE)

[carptricks]

[There doesn't seem to be one :(]

Re: TO NEW HEIGHTS (DOVE)

[carptricks]

[There's a flag pole she could jump to, grab a hold of, and pull herself up with! But it looks pretty far. . . jumping would be a risk unless she took a running start first]

Re: TO NEW HEIGHTS (DOVE)

[clocksandroses]

[She's got a good eye for distances and such things, and she's pretty sure she's athletic enough to make it as long as she has a running start . . .]

[Frowning, she backs up . . . and after a moment to psyche herself up, because holy shit that's a long drop, she runs for the jump!]

Re: TO NEW HEIGHTS (DOVE)

[carptricks]

[You take a running leap, extending your hands for that flag pole. . .!]

[and just barely managed to grab it, by the tips of your fingers. congrats Aoko you are now dangling from a flag pole]

Re: TO NEW HEIGHTS (DOVE)

[clocksandroses]

[Y-Yelps, clinging on for dear life, and tries to scramble up into a less precarious position.]

Re: TO NEW HEIGHTS (DOVE)

[carptricks]

[It takes a bit of scrambling, but she can do that! Just don't look down, Aoko]

Re: TO NEW HEIGHTS (DOVE)

[clocksandroses]

I hate you, I hate you, I hate you I hate you I hate you

[Muttering furiously under her breath, SHE DOESN'T NEED TO LOOK DOWN TO KNOW HOW FAR THAT DROP IS.]

[What's the next step?]

Re: TO NEW HEIGHTS (DOVE)

[carptricks]

[. . . :(]

[Next step is to swing herself up so she can grab the edge of the building, then pull herself up]

Re: TO NEW HEIGHTS (DOVE)

[clocksandroses]

[Okay. Okay, she can do that, that is easier. Kind of. JFC how much upper-body strength does he have?!]

[Up she goes! Without much grace, but. She's totally got this.]
