Chapter 13 – Traitor

"Daisuke is here?" Dark repeated quietly.

"He's been here for awhile," Towa answered. Satoshi stepped forward and then frowned.

"Can you specifically find out where he is?" he asked.

Towa went quiet for a moment and then closed her eyes. She searched for a few moments before opening her eyes again and then shook her head.

"I can't find him," she announced.

"But at least we know where he is," Dark said.

"Let's split up and then search for him," Satoshi announced and they all nodded before heading in their own directions.


Daisuke could hear footsteps approaching him. The heavy sound and vibrations told Daisuke that his captor was heavier and taller then him.

"How are you doing my little captive?" the captor teased.

Daisuke strained his ears and then felt shock overwhelm his body as he recognized the voice. He lifted his head and then motioned to the place where his captor was.

"It's you. Why are you…" Daisuke began. He never got to finish his sentence because a solid object slammed into his head and he dropped into unconsciousness.


"Dark!" Towa screamed as she suddenly ran towards the thief.

Dark stopped running and then turned to the other artwork and then frowned.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

"I found him! I found Daisuke! There was a sudden surge and I managed to locate his presence before it completely vanished!" she exclaimed. Dark stared at her with worry.

"It vanished?" he said.

"It just disappeared," Towa said. Dark grabbed the girl's shoulders.

"Where? Where is he?" Dark exclaimed as he shook her slightly. Towa pointed in a direction and Dark immediately took off in the direction indicated.

"What about the Commander?" Towa called out.

"There's no time. I feel like if I don't go now then I might never see him again," he whispered back without turning around.

Towa watched him leave without a word.

Dark stopped running when he spotted a small run down building that was threatening to fall apart at any moment. He rushed forward and then slammed open the door. The first thing he saw was the collapsed form of his tamer.

Daisuke was laying on the ground, his hands bound behind his back and his legs chained against the wall. There was a thick blindfold on his eyes and Dark could see that the top of the blindfold was covered in blood. Daisuke's blood.

The thief rushed to his fallen tamer and calmly cradled his head, while quickly checking the wound that had been given to the other.

"Daisuke, wake up," Dark called out as he slightly shook the other boy and removed the blindfold.

Daisuke let out a moan of protest, but he slowly opened his eyes and looked straight into Dark's face. A small smile appeared on his features and he slowly reached out his hand to touch the thief's face.

Dark grabbed the hand before Daisuke could use too much strength.

"Don't move. You probably have a concussion because of the severe blow to your head," Dark explained. Daisuke laughed slightly.

"At least that would explain why my head is pounding so much," Daisuke mumbled. Dark rolled his eyes and smiled when he realized that after a lot of rest, the red head haired boy would be all right.

"What happened to you?" Dark asked.

"I was talking to you and then everything went black. When I awoke again I was in this place…where exactly is this place?" Daisuke questioned.

"It's in the realm of spirits. Whoever captured you isn't a normal person. They have access to both the human realm and this realm," Dark announced. Daisuke took a deep breath and then tried to give Dark a serious look even though his skull was killing him.

"I know who it is," he announced.

"Who?"

"Me," someone said. They both turned around and came face to face with Krad.
