"T-torture..?"

Conan pinned Kid's arms above his head with two fingers and used his other index finger to tickle his little tummy.
The thief burst out laughing. His tummy was really sensitive.

"T-Tantie-kun..! Please stop, I can't breathe!!"

"Isn't that the point of tickle torture?~"

After 6 full minutes of continuous tickle torture, the detective finally gave some mercy to the thief.
He watched with satisfaction as the thief panted heavily, trying to catch his breath.

"And that's a punishment for all your pranks, Kaito Kid."

Kid slowly sat up after calming down and chuckled.

"Shouldn't I be punished for my crimes, and not my pranks?"

The detective smirked.

"That waits for later, until you're arrested."

Kid gave a small smile and nodded.

"Of course, Tantie-kun. Of course."

Conan was about to complain about how calm the magician's reaction was when his phone rang loudly, cutting him off.
Annoyed, he picked up the device and tapped 'accept'.
The thief listened closely.

"You found anything? _ So? _One must face their worst fear to undo its magic? _Side effects? _Okay, got it. _ I told you it's none of your business why I need it! _ No, I didn't shrink. _ I'm not telling you.-"

Kid smiled at how the detective refused to give out his secret.
It was one of the things he admired about the detective.
He was trust-worthy.
Someone he could rely on.

BEEP

The detective hung up.
Kid gave looked at him early, wanting to know what can be done so he can be the normal Kaito Kid again.

"So..?"

"You have to face your worst fears."

"My worst fears?"

"Yeah. Is there anything you're scared of?"

The thief thought for a moment.
What was he scared of...?

"Any phobias?"

He froze.
He did have one phobia.
A really severe one.

"I'll take that as a yes."

Conan smirked. Now he'll get to know what the phantom was scared of.

"Say Kid. What are you scared of-"

"NO! You'll laugh at me..!"

"Wha-?"

Conan looked at the magician. He seemed really.. frustrated.
His gaze softened a little and he sighed.

"I promise I won't laugh at you and I promise I won't use your fears against you."

Kid looked up at his detective.
He knew his detective wouldn't lie to him about such a serious topic, but he just couldn't help but be paranoid. Despite all that, he nodded in acceptance.

"Okay.. But don't tell anyone okay? It's a really severe one..."

The detective smiled.

"I promise I won't."

Kid gave a small smile in return before clearing his throat.

"Ah, well.."

Conan readied his ears.
