Chapter 36

Dark Days Come

"Who are you?"

Satoshi asked her, breathless as he could feel his entire body warm up. Dark, the mask, every thing was forgotten at that moment. Daisuke(F) looked up at him with half laden eyes, sending shivers down his spine.

"I am Daisuke Niwa."

She said simply, her voice sounding almost seductive to his ears. His grip tightened on her wrists, and fought back the emotion that was surfacing with in him.

"Akane Sakura, your Daisuke Niwa?"

He asked as he narrowed his eyes at her in confusion. She just looked at him, her eyes open and a cherry red blush all over her face.

"Y-yes."

She strutted out; Satoshi didn't ponder the change in personality and continued to question her. The feeing in his body reseeding to on spot, over his still rapidly beating heart.

"You can't be."

She looked away from him; his eyes were suddenly drawn to her pail neck like a vampire. He could see her judger vein pulsate from under her skin, and feel her pulse in his palms. Her wrists so soft, warm, and fragile in his grasp.

"I know who you really are."

She glanced at him threw her long dark lasses, her eyes seemed to be watering over before she looked away.

"Satoshi Hikari."

As soon as his real name escaped her soft, pink lips, all the air in his body was released in a single, silent, disbelieving gasp. His heart stopped beating for what seem to be for an eternity.

"The last living Hikari descendent."

Her words studded him, making him loosen his hold on her wrists, looking at her with wide eyes. He reasoned that any hacker, with enough skill, could find that kind of information on him, but...

Her next words were impossible for any living person to know besides him, his adoptive father, and the Niwa's.

"You carry an evil white winged angel called Krad within you."

This information greatly startled him, as he shot off of her as if she was diseased, his back hitting a wall. Looking at her with shock and fear as she slowly sat up, her red hair falling over her shoulders and hiding her eyes.

"H-how? How do you know that?"

He asked her as she looked up at him, her eyes looked as if they were glowing in the darkness around them. To anyone else, she would look like a demon in a beautiful girl's body but the glow of her eyes soothed him, like a spell.

"I am Daisuke Niwa, and..."

She started to say, Satoshi noticed a small black wing looking charm thing dangle from her wrist, glowing purple. Then, she was surrounded by purple light, slowly transforming in to an older woman with long, layered purple hair, taller, more prominent curves.

Satoshi was speechless as he watched her transform, he knew only one person with purple hair, but he was male. Remembering Dark, Satoshi cursed himself for being inattentive and running after a girl that he didn't even know.

The transformation was complete; a 17 year old woman was in her place. Opening her eyes, they were still the same soft red color from before as they looked at the started boy with sadness as she stood up.

"I'm the Phantom Thief Dark."

"No."

Satoshi stated sternly, logic told him that their cold only be one real Dark, and it wasn't her. Narrowing his eyes at her, he stood up and faced her.

"You can't be."

Gritting his teeth, as he looked at the female version of the Thief he was sworn to capture.

"I am."

She said as she advanced on him, her eyes never leaving his as she came closer. He didn't look away either, and he couldn't.

'She has me in a spell!'

Satoshi thought, gritting his teeth at the trap he had fallen into. She was right in front of him as she gently placed a hand on his cheek, gently stroking it. Her face came closer to his, red coloring her face and sadness over flowing in her eyes.

"I am Dark and she is Daisuke. We are one in the same."

She said to him, her voice sounding like two people speaking at once. He saw her eyes flash from red to purple in a mere fraction of a second.

He tried to fight off the spell, but his body protested, and relaxed into her gentle and warm touch. His eyes feeling heavy as they were now half way closed as they were mesmerized by the woman before him.

Her breath heated the other side of his face as she spoke her next words, again the voice of two people talking at one.

"I'm sorry for hurting you, Satoshi."

She said to him before she moved her lips over his. His eyes widened in disbelief as she kissed him, making his heart burst as his face grew red insanely. He had never kissed anyone before, and her lips felt and tasted so good agents his own. Without thinking, he gave into her, grabbing her by her hips and pulling her closer to his body.

She made him crave her warmth…

Her taste...

Her scent...

All of her.

He didn't feel her other hand as it move over his chest, over his rapidly beating heart, until...

"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

He broke away from the kiss to yell out in pain, as a purple light illuminated around her hand over his heart, slowly sinking into the police women uniform, into his flesh, to his wildly beating heart. Held in place by the hard, cold, wall behind him and her soft, warm, body that was standing planted firmly in her spot in front of him.

"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

He continued to cry out in pain, his head towards the ceiling, mouth and eyes wide with excruciating pain flowing threw his body the likes of which he has never felt before, beyond the pain of Krad forcing his way out to control his body. Her hand sunk in all the way to her wrist into his body, right to his heart.

Tears could bee seen poring down from her eyes as she knew how much pain she was causing him. She made quick work of trying to find the 'White Wing' cham in his heart, she didn't know how she knew, but she did. She didn't like the thought of hurting any one, let alone Satoshi.

Her fingers brushed agents something that was not bone or flesh, but the mineral that she knew that the 'White Wings' was made of. Grasping it firmly, she gently pulled her hand out of his chest, the glow disappearing and fading.

He stopped screaming, and he only stared blankly at the ceiling, ragged breath, relived of the pain and drained of energy. His knees gave out under his weight and let him fall forward. Into the purple haired woman's arms as she embraced him tenderly, carefully lowing them to the floor.

Her eyes closed, but tears still fell from the corners of her eyes, down her cheeks, curved at her chin, and softly plopped in the black wig that he wore. She started to gently stroke his head, slowing his breathing and his eyes slowly closed. Falling into a deep slumber as he rested in the woman's arms.

The sound of quite foot steps came, but the purple haired woman seemed not to care, as it was only one set of foot steps that rushed down the hall.

Seconds later, Dark came rushing out of the darkness with To-to on his shoulder. Stopped still as he looked at the site before him.

The one who has been trying to capture him for months, dressed as a creepily attractive police woman was laying limp in the arms of a very beautiful purple haired woman, her body was to curvy to be male.

To-to decided to speak up.

"Daisuke?"

She called a little unsurely, as the purple haired woman looked over at them with her tear filled purple eyes. She was not Daisuke(F) but the phantom thief Dark (F).

Dark's(M) eyes widen as he saw the female version of himself, and smirked.

'I look pretty hot as a woman.'

'...'

Daisuke (M) either remained stunned by the beauty of the female version of his alter-ego or, frightened by the horrors that TWO Darks could bring.

Dark(F) looked her male version up and down and had to smirk on her face as she liked what she saw.

'Mmm. If I wasn't committed already I'd defiantly take him to go.'

Dark(F) thought, before her tamers voice called to her.

'Dark.'

Daisuke(F) called her unsurely, making Dark's (F) smirk turn into a smile. When she looked down in her arms and like her tamer, she was not fooled by the disguise.

'I'm glad you came for me, Daisuke.'

She thanked her tamer as she picked up Satoshi, with the help of a little magic, into her arms and walked over to Dark(M) with a smile on her face.

"I'll trade you."

She said to him as he smirked and backed away.

"No, I think I prefer real females."

He said, chucking at his joke, making To-to blush but she knew what Dark(F) was saying.

"We have to hurry!"

She yelled as she flew over on to Dark's(F) shoulder.

"We don't have much time!"

Dark(F) gave a nod and gave Satoshi to her reluctant counter part.

"Alright, let's go."

Dark(F) winked at him seductively before lavender light surrounded her.

"Bye, handsome."

Dark(M) smirked as the light around her brightened.

"Goodbye, gorgeous."

They said to each other before Dark(F) vanished in a flash of lavender light.

----

The mirror that had imprisoned Dark cracked and broke apart as lavender light burst threw it. From that light appeared her red haired tamer and To-to, hovering above the ocean as her body radiated the light, To-to clinging to her.

Opening her eyes slowly, Daisuke saw the island from a bird's view as the sun was just peaking over the ocean. Blinking to clear her vision, Daisuke was in aw at the site.

----

In the forest, just far enough not to be seen by the red head but close enough to clearly see her.

He stood and watched her, longingly and out of his reach up in the heavens like the angel she was, while he looked at her from below, as one of the damned.

Her dressed in a yellow tank top that had elastic under her breasts that became orange and red further down, stopping at her thighs. Light blue jean shorts hugged her hips till above her knees, as white sandals were strapped to her feet.

She didn't match the sunrise, the sunrise matched her, and the site was breath taking, more beautiful the finest art work.

He bit his lip as he saw her start to fall, trying to resist going after her...

To catch her...

To save her.

----

Snapping out of the beauty of the sunrise the physics of her view kicked in.

'Wait. Why am I so high up?'

She thought as she looked down, and only ocean waves and air below her.

"Agh!"

She screamed as she started to fall. Panicking she tried the first thing she could think of.

"Wiz!"

She called but her little pet didn't come.

'Daisuke, use YOUR wings!'

Dark shouted at her as she fell closer to the ocean.

'M-m-my wings? I don't have wings Dark! You do!'

She shouted back at the thief.

'You do have wings. Just set yourself free.'

Dark told her, concerned by the waters below; her impact would be hard and cause her serious injury.

'Set myself... free?'

Daisuke thought as she closed her eyes and felt something wrap around her waist, stopping her from falling into the water.

Her eyes still closed and focused on trying to 'Set herself free' she didn't hear the flapping of wings, nor feel the warmth on her back, and the brush of warm air on her cheek and neck.

Only until she felt the sand beneath her feet, her eyes snapped open, she felt filmier arms around her, and smelled his natural scent.

Whipping her head to the side to look behind her, she saw him and the white angel wings on his back.

Dawn and Riku

"So that's what happened to my mother."

Dawn said as he finished telling Riku about his life before his father, Kosuke Niwa, took him in and raised him. Treating him no different then his legitimate child, Dawn's half sister, Daisuke Niwa.

He laid his head on her lap as she gently ran her hands threw his red and black hair. Sitting on the beach a good distance away from the lighthouse, tear stains were on her cheeks as she looked down at him.

He just looked away from her, afraid of meeting her eyes. No one liked, let alone loved an illegitimate child, a bastard.

Daisuke

"Sa-satoshi?"

She asked confused, as she looked at his unhidden blue eyes, as the white wings disappeared leaving only white feathers to float slowly down onto the white sand.

Satoshi unwrapped his arms from around her reluctantly, and backed away from her, a blank look on his face, but she saw the pain and want in his eyes as he looked at her.

"Daisuke."

He called her name falling naturally from his lips. His blue eyes scanning every inch of her body for injures, as he told himself, and memorizing every curve of her body, every subtle movement she made as she blushed under his gaze.

"Daisuke!"

Someone yelled out panicky, the two teens snapped out of their thoughts.

Looking over in land, Emiko ran down towards Daisuke, dressed in a red sleeveless sun dress that reached her knees, trimmed in gold. Her hair slightly a mess and in her bare feet, as soon as she reached her daughter she pulled her into her arms.

"Oh, Daisuke. Mommy was so worried about you."

She said to her daughter before turning a glare at Satoshi who looked back at her indifferent.

"Mom?"

Daisuke said to her mother before she was puffed to move towards the hotel.

"Lets go. You need your sleep before the last shoot."

She told her, as she didn't let her eyes wander from the Hikari, who looked away from then and out' into the ocean, his back to them.

Struggling in her mother's grasp, Daisuke managed to look back at Satoshi, she gasped before her mother shoved her a bit harder to keep moving.

'His back!'

She thought as she pictured it in her mind.

The back of his shirt had two long vertical cuts, and on his back were two open and bleeding wounds the length of the cuts, seeping down into his shirt, making in a darkling his already red shirt.

"Mom!"

Daisuke cried out panicky, her mother just ignored her as she pushed her forward with a stone cold faced as she held her daughter firmly, pushing her further away from him.

'It's bleeding!'

"Satoshi!"

She yelled as her eyes widen as she saw Satoshi fall to his knees before her view of him was blocked.

6 hours later

"Daisuke. You need to get over him. He's no good for you."

Emiko explained to her daughter as they rode the elevator down to the lobby. Daisuke had taken a long nap, with the help of a family sleeping potion, in her parents' room under their watch before it was time for the final shoot.

Daisuke had her hair in a neat, high pony tail and was dressed in a white dress that looked more like a toga. The 'sleeves' were held together by two golden hearts, on at her wrist and the other near her elbow and another gold heart on her shoulders held up the white fabric covering her chest. Then a golden heart belt tiled around her waist from the top of her right hip, and the end of the toga like dress reached her ankles were she wore white sandals that wrapped up her lower leg.

Emiko had just been getting ready for the final shoot, when Kosuke had came in and told her that nether his nephew, Dawn, nor their daughter, Daisuke had been in their rooms.

Worried that she had been seduced by the Hikari and captured, they searched for them until Emiko found Dawn with Riku, and Daisuke, to her horror, was with Satoshi with his arms around her!

Daisuke looked Just down at the elevator floor, not saying a word to her mother. It was a very quite and tense2 minutes between the two Niwa females. The soft ding alerted them that they had reached the lobby.

Walking out of the elevator, Emiko followed after her daughter till she remembered something.

"Oh! I forgot my tool's!"

She said as she stopped, her daughter still walking away from her. Frowning she dashed back into the elevator before the doors closed.

While Daisuke was absorbed in her thoughts, that only when she bumped into a man did she come back to reality.

"Oh! I'm sorry."

Daisuke apoligised as she slightly bowed to the man whom just chuckled.

"That's all right, Miss Niwa."

Looking at the man, Daisuke recognized him, even if he was wearing a crimson red Hawaiian shirt, brown short and flip flops.

"Mr. Hiwatari!"

She gasped as she said his name, surprised to run into him. The feeling she got from him the first time they met made her uneasy, taking a step back to get some space in-between them.

"Yes. I'm glad that we ran into each other again."

Mr. Hiwatari replayed happily as he smiled down at the red head.

"Would like to ask you something. If you wouldn't mind of course."

He asked her politely, but it made her shiver as he smiled at her. She did not like the vibes he was giving off, and hoped to get away soon.

"Oh-ok."

She told him unsurely, a glare catching his glasses and they hid his eyes. He dug into his pockets, out of habit Daisuke tensed. Having had her mother handcuff her hands as she pretend to give her a present.

She expected it from the older Hiwatari male but what he pulled out confused her. A pen and a piece of paper.

"Would you mind giving me your autograph?"

He asked cheerfully, confusing Daisuke and catching her completely off guard.

"Huh?!"

Mr. Hiwatari chuckled at the red head's confusion.

"Don't worry. It's for Satoshi any way."

He looked at her, his eyes unhidden, looking at her red orbs. Daisuke tensed as she looked into his eyes, scaring her to her core.

"He's quite taken with you."

"O-oh!"

She blinked, the glare on his glasses hiding his eyes again. Taking the pen and paper from him she signed the piece of paper and handed them back to Mr. Hiwatari.

"Here you go."

He took them from her, looking down at her lovely, neat handwriting, unseen by Daisuke he smirked evily before looking back at her with a kind smile.

"It was nice seeing you again Miss. Niwa."

He said as she left going to the elevators. Daisuke let out a breath she did not know she was holding the whole time he was watching her.

"You to , good bye."

Daisuke quickly made her way out the doors, creped out by the vibes that were coming off of the man, she was eager to get away from him.

As soon as she was out of site Mr. Hiwatari smirked evilly as he looked down at Daisuke's autograph, then he flipped it over to her photo on the other side.

The one Satoshi usually kept with him at all times, for what he had told him, was for 'safety reasons', but now...

His father had it, and planed on using it to control his 'son'.

That was chapter 36!
