The Light in the Shadows:

Chapter 11: The Trouble with Magic

AN: Inspired by the final attack in G Gundam from Domon and Rain on the dark gundam. I had the last half of the story pop into my head one day and found it really funny. I could just picture the angel's faces.

"Oh come on my other half," purple eyes were pleading, "what could go wrong?" The thief leaned over his blond counterpart grinning in excitement, "please? Pretty please? Pretty pretty please?"

The hunter heaved an annoyed sigh, "you're not going to leave me alone are you? Even if I told you to get lost."

"Noooope," Dark smirked popping the P as he bounced on his toes amethyst eyes focused on the white angel. His grin widened farther as with another loud sigh the Hikari hunter closed the book he'd been reading, "yea! Come on, hurry up!"

Krad rolled his eyes in exasperation at the childish antics of the kaito. He stretched lazily before placing the book he'd been trying to read on the table next to the couch he'd been stretched out on. "Very well," he climbed gracefully to his feet, "show me this new spell that you found and think would be good for us to learn." The ice demon waved one gloved hand, "let's however try it in the backyard just in case. After all you said that you really didn't know what effects it might have and I don't want to blow up the house by mistake." The two magical beings started through the halls, "so where did you find this spell again?"

The thief shrugged, "I found it in one of the old books that Emiko brought over for us to read she said there might be some useful magic in them."

"Do you have the book? I would like to read it," the blond took the book that his counterpart had been clutching golden eyes skimming quickly over the text. He frowned flipping the page not liking how little information the tome contained on the spell. He could see where there had been a few pages ripped out. "I'm not so sure this is a good idea. There seems to be several pages missing. Pages that could have information that we need about the spell and its effects."

Dark waved one hand, "nah, how bad can it be? It's in a book of beginners magic." The purple haired thief grinned, "I think we both passed that stage a while back."

Pale lips pursed, "very well then." The two halves turned to face the yard from the second story balcony.

The phantom thief rubbed his hands together in excitement, "on the count of three we say the spell together. One, two, three…"

"Seki-ha Ten-kyo-ken!" Purple and gold magic twisted together forming a large fireball before blasting out into the yard. As the magic struck the ground it spiraled up forming the twisted figure of the Kokuyoku. The ghostly apparition spread its tattered black wings as it drew it's sword with a roar. The skeletal statue swung it's weapon releasing a devastating blast of black magic across the landscape. When the smoke and dust dissipated both the angel's grimaced at the massive crater now in the backyard.

Wide golden eyes turned to regard the darker half of his soul, "I told you this was a bad idea!"

"Heh," Dark rubbed the back of his head sheepishly, "um yeah, think creepy-boy's going to notice?"

The blond through up his hands, "Mousy, a blind man could notice that hole."

"Well, wasn't your tamer talking about redoing the landscaping?" The purple haired thief winced, "We um, just kinda did it for him. Think about all the money he just saved."

"Somehow I don't think this is quite what Satoshi-sama had in mind," sighed the blond hunter rubbing his temples with white gloved fingers.

"Well," Dark smiled brightly, "the hole could make a very lovely coy pond."

Krad snorted, "sure, you go right ahead and try selling that one to Satoshi-sama."

The kaito sweatdropped, "Uh, yeah, I'd really rather not..."

"What the hell happened to the back yard!" The rather irate yell of one Satoshi Hikari rang out through the air.

Dark paled eyes widening in fear, "go hide somewhere very far away for a while?"

"Most definitely," nodded the hunter spreading his wings.

"KOKUYOKU!"

Dark nodded swiftly following his retreating counterpart into the sunny blue sky, "Yep, very, very far away."
