Chapter 2

Daisuke dropped his backpack with no regard when he got home. He had to stop himself from running to the lounge room and kept his pace at a brisk walk. His mum, dad and grandad were all seated and waiting for him.

"Mum. Why did you send out a warning letter for tonight. I was going to ask Riku if she wanted to come over for a tea."

"This is important honey."

"A necklace? Why do we need to seal a necklace? Dark doesn't want to say anything about this either."

Emiko started saying something but Daiki broke in.

"Daisuke. Dark probably thinks it won't work again but we believe that it has been fixed."

Daisuke was confused by this explanation but Dark turned around from his sulking corner and his eyes were alight with renewed curiosity.

Let's go get it. Dark said.

What is it? Daisuke asked.

It's-

"This necklace has the power to separate you and Dark." Daiki didn't know he had interrupted.

Daisuke turned in astonishment.

"It will give Dark a body of his own and your consciousnesses will be separate. It only works for a little while but it's freedom nonetheless."

Both Dark and Daisuke were leaning forwards now.

"How do you know about it, Grandad?" Daisuke asked.

"My father made it for Dark and I when I was younger. It didn't work back then but apparently it has been putting unfortunate souls into a different body until the time is up. We think that someone fixed it."

Dark looked and Daisuke and Daisuke looked at him.

Shall we go to get it?

Let's go.

The two nodded in agreement and Daisuke turned back to Emiko.

"Where do we have to go?"

"The necklace is at the museum down the road from your school but I would suggest taking the underground root. The police would have staked out all other entries."

"Does that mean we won't need Wiz?" Daisuke asked.

Dark frowned. I like the way I look with wings.

You still don't need them when we're going underground.

"It's up to you but he could be a good distraction during the escape." Emiko said.

"We can deal with that on our own."

Dark protested enough to give Daisuke a headache but Daisuke didn't change his mind. Night and the time on the warning letter came quickly and soon Dark was in control.

Ready to go, Daisuke?

Ready.

Let's go, then!

Dark left with a running start and he didn't look back.
