Oh come on can't I just pop in one?

Tom and Rob stumbled around in the darken house searching for light switch.

"I think I got it-" Rob said as he trip over face first in a soft padding of cloth. Seconds later Tom turned on the light in the kitchen and poked his head out to ask " What was that Rob?"

"Murph mmmrh mmm"

"Rob your talking in sofa."

The man pushed himself up with a mighty gasp as if he where drowning " Excellent job Tom! Now on to plan B."

"Rob I told you this already I was going to help you find a light switch then I'm going home."

"You can't go now!"

"And why not?"

"Cause you have to help me scope the place out"

"Scope out? What there to scope out! We know what the place looks like we've only been here about hundred million times"

"Good point! But this is the Niwatari house hold after hours"

" We know what it looks like after ours"

"I don't!"

"What are you talking about Rob you where just over here to sleep over due to you broke my car which I might add is still gone."

" Oh yah don't worry about it Tom I'm sure it will come home when it gets hungry" Rob assured him as he got up and walked in the opposite and longer way to the kitchen.

"Where talking about a car here Rob" Tom said as he waited for Rob to meet him in his room. Tom raised an eyebrow when his co-work didn't show up with his more than enough estimated time. Then he heard off in the hallway " Hey Tom! Tom! Come here!"

Tom threw his hands up in surrender as he walked over to Rob's nagging voice. Rob was standing in front of a slightly open door. Rob beamed like a dog who brought back to newspaper for his master. "What Rob?"

"What door is this?"

"I think it's Satoshi's study why?"

"Have you ever wonder why he keeps it locked all the time?"

"Not really why?"

"I have! And look it's open! This is a one and a life time opportunity!"

"I really think we should close it and walk away"

"Where is your adventurer sprit man! didn't you hear me say this is the solution to the mystery of the century!"

"Yes I did and haven't you heard the saying something's are never meant to be discovered?"( For the real saying but that's the bases)

"No now lets go" Rob put his hand on the handled.

Tom pulled him back " I'm sure it's just some books the bills and maybe some valuables that he keeps locked up, Come on let's not open the Pandora's box ok?"

"Tom this is clearly too big to be a box." he pushed open the door.

The chestnut door swung open slowly revealing a wood base room. There was a grand desk with papers stacked neatly in columns. Next to them was a laptop already logged on and screening some financing software. There was a brass lamp on sitting on the corner of the desk. The only thing odd about the room which wasn't too odd was that the walls where all book shelves and on everyone of them where old, dusty, tattered leather bound books. Half of there titles worn away form age. Rob sat in the maroon leather chair spinning in it like a child. While Tom seeing no harm with a tiny peak walked over to the books pulled one randomly. "I wonder what he likes to read?"

"Hmm yah me too I mean he never talks about that stuff now dose he?"

Tom could only read some of the title out " H--------mily History"

"So he's into History huh?" Rob commented as he snooped in the drawers of the desk. When he got to the third one open he found a stack of Cd's which he took out and began to file through. They where labeled as fallowed Dido: White Flag, Paul Simon: Graceland , Zp4, Zp3 Pictures, Finances, Agenda, Classical, Soft Rock vol 2, Mozart: Masterpieces, Enya: Paint the Sky With Stars, James Taylor: New Moon Shine, Cat Stevens: Tea for the Tillerman, Satoshi, Writings 3, Zp2, Zol Performance , Scripts, To Daisuke ,Research, Other, Writings 2, Dark, Black and white, Niwa, Hikari. Writings 1...

When he was flipping through the Cd's he pulled out Dark, To Daisuke, Pictures, Writings 1,2, and 3. "Look Tom I found some Cd's!" Tom put the book back where he found it and came over to his friend. He saw what he selected from the pile. And sternly told him "No Rob"

"Oh come on can't I just pop in one?"

"No is No Rob"

Without warning The more curious man pop open the Cd driver and clicked in the disk.

"Rob!"

"It's just one he'll never know"

"I'm leaving"

Rob clutched his sleeve holding him in place pouting up. "Come on it's only one and it about Dark!"

Tom shook off the brunet's arm "Fine but after this I'm leaving all right?"

"Sure Sure" Rob ignoring him as he minimized the programs on the desktop and open the folder to the disk. Was divide in four folders Headlines, Observations, Plans, Research.

He clicked on Headlines and list of images loaded up. They looked through them and joked about there childhood days and how they where glued to there TV sets and what they did just to get a glimpse of the phantom thief which was especially extravagant with Rob. They didn't have took at the headline due to they had and memorized It by heart. collected them. Rob led the cursor over Plans. And accentually tap the mouse touch pad and open it. There where Blueprints of Museum floors that where dirty with writing all over them. The bar workers saw lists of men that Satoshi had picked and diagrams of traps with scribbles of notes. There where even a sketch of woman's clothes and wig for a disguise he made for him self.

"He did all this at fourteen?" Rob asked

"That's what he said" Tom Answered

"Damn" Rob awed as he exit out to Observations. He open it and they read a progress letter written to a man called Commissioner Hiawatri.

"His dad was the Commissioner!"

"That explains a lot."

"Like what?"

"Like how a fourteen year old can be a commander"

"Oh"

They scrolled down to some notes that Satoshi had type up. But before they read Tom heard a faint slant click.

"Hey rob did you hear that?"

"Hear what?"

"I thought I heard someone at the door"

Rob turned back to the screen "Your just imagining things" Tom continued to listen for anymore moments not paying attention to the computer while his companion began to read.

It seems that Dark's trigger is Miss Harada Riku. While Daius-

Before Rob could read any more the front door open and they heard a man say

"Hmm The lights are on I guess there already home." Tom And Rob froze as they listen to the footsteps wander off to the kitchen "Hey Dai I got it Now we can -your not in here"

They heard the footsteps coming over to the study probably attracted to the lamp that was still on Rob jerked down under the desk and pulled in the chair so close to him that it hurt. While Tom slipped between the door and the wall. They heard the man walk into the room he quickly glance over and saw that no one was there Rob saw as clear as day that it was the man from the library. He caught him self before he made a noise. Tom watched the man through the slit of the door just above a hinge. The both held there breath as he walked in and leaned over the leather chair As he eyed the screen. " Hmmm reviewing about me Commander?" he asked to himself. After Another moment reading the screen he straighten up "You might even been able to catch me if it wasn't for Daisuke" he turned and walked out chuckling. Once they heard the teenager walk to Little Satoshi's room and close the door behind him. Did they dare to release there hands from there faces.

"Rob? Was that who I think it was?" whispered his partner in crime popping his head out form the door.

"I Think so" he whispered back as he crawled out of his hiding space.

"What's he doing in Daisuke's house? It seems He knows Daisuke pretty well he even calls him by his nick name! And what was this you could of catch me if it wasn't for Daisuke thing?

"I have no idea But like I said before something is defiantly up"
