Chapter 2

"Dai, sweetie, I know you've been dumped, but that's no excuse! You have to go steal 'The Enchantress' Heart' painting tonight!" Emiko said to her son, pulling him out of his room.

"Mom I'm not in the mood… it's kinda hard to transform when I'm depressed."

"Just go steal it!" Emiko shouted, pushing Daisuke out the door and slamming it closed.

'Yare yare, ikou yo!' Dark said happily.

'I can't transform, remember? Thinking about Riku just gets me feeling pissed off, not romantic!' Daisuke snapped at Dark.

'Gomen nasai Daisuke, demo… I think this will help you transform,' Dark said, forcing a picture of Satoshi into Daisuke's mind.

'Nani? What's that suppose to mean?' Daisuke yelled, furious at the fact that Dark would even think that he liked Satoshi.

"It worked, didn't it?" Dark smirked. Calling Wiz to him, he flew off to the museum.

'This is gonna be so cool!' Takeshi thought as he snuck out of the restroom. Getting his camera ready, he settled down and waited for Dark's arrival.

Satoshi walked over to "The Enchantress' Heart". He stood there for a moment, admiring the beauty of the painting.

'Two more minutes… we'd better get ready.' Krad said.

'You sure? You always get jealous of a certain someone whenever I transform,' Satoshi asked a bit bitterly.

'Gomen ne koi, I'll try not to get too upset.'

'Don't call me that!' Satoshi snapped. Closing his eyes he thought of the one person for whom he transformed. Daisuke's image came to his mind; ruby eyes that are usually always filled with joy and laughter, perfect crimson hair, and a smile that could make him fall in love every time he sees it.

'He'll never feel the same. He'll never love you the way I do.' Krad smiled after Satoshi transformed.

'Wakatademo… to stop loving Daisuke… will be even harder than getting him to love me back…'

Takeshi resisted the urge to run when he saw Satoshi turn into someone else. A tall, slender boy with golden hair an eyes and beautiful angel wings of a white so pure it could make snow seem gray took Satoshi's place in the blink of an eye. The boy stood there staring at a window.

'What's he looking at?' Takeshi thought, turning to see what the guy was staring so intensely at. There, on the windowsill, sat the Phantom Thief, Dark.

Dark jumped down from the window and glided down to Krad. "Satoshi usually uses you as a last resort. What, did you want to see me that badly?" he asked, taking a lock of Krad's hair and giving it a playful tug.

"You don't know how much I want to kill you right now…" Krad sighed.

Dark laughed and walked over to the painting. "Well my show's about to start, so I'll just take this and go." He reached up to take the painting off the wall, but Krad was there in a flash. He rammed his shoulder into Dark's side, sending him to the ground with a thump.

"Souka," Dark smiled, "Soreja… I've no choice but to fight you." Dark swung his leg out in an attempt to trip Krad, but he had taken to the air. Flipping to his feet, Dark followed. He threw a punch that connected with Krad's jaw, but Krad retaliated with a knee to Dark's stomach, leaving him completely winded.

Taking advantage of this, Krad grabbed Wiz by the wings, yanked him off of Dark's back, and threw him against the wall.

Dark's leg broke with an audible snap as he hit the floor. He swore loudly and gritted his teeth in pain.

'Dark, change back now!' Daisuke yelled.

'Ie, nande monaii! I'll be fine!' Dark lied.

'Dark, I'll be fine, just change back.'

'Fine…'

Daisuke looked up at Krad and caught his eye. He could practically feel the hatred radiating from off of him as Krad stared down at him with a look of utmost loathing.

'Krad no! You promised you wouldn't hurt him!' Satoshi yelled.

"Damn you Niwa!" Krad shouted, not even bothering to keep the anger out of his voice. "As long as you don't touch that painting, I'll let you go, got it?"

"Too late, it's gone!" Daisuke called up to him.

'Here that? I can kill him now!' Krad told Satoshi triumphantly, flying down to Daisuke.

"I'll be leaving now…" Daisuke said nervously. With smile and a wave, he turned around and headed for the door.

"Hold it! I said you could go only go if you take 'The Enchantress' Heart', remember?"

"And I didn't… Wiz did. Bye now." Daisuke laughed as he left the museum, leaving behind a very angry Krad.

'Damn it! He tricked me!' Krad screamed, 'That damn brat! That BASTARD!'

Satoshi just laughed.

Takeshi stood up after everybody had left, feeling slightly dazed, not to mention extremely confused. 'Daisuke is the famous Phantom Thief? Ie, it can't be… This is all just some horrible joke!'

Then he thought back to this morning, to when he had thought Daisuke wasn't listening. He had asked Daisuke if he was the Phantom Thief in disguise. He was joking, of course, but Daisuke had blushed and nodded his head yes. 'But he said he wasn't listening to the question!' Takeshi thought angrily, determined to prove himself wrong. 'I'll worry about it latter…' With that final thought, he left the museum.

'I've gotta give you props for that one Daisuke!' Dark laughed when they got home. 'How did you become so cleverly evil?'

'Well I did learn from the best!' Daisuke said happily.

'Awe… Arigatou Daisuke!'

'Welcome!'

(Umm….) Telephone noises!

"Hello?"

"Satoshi? This is police commissioner Hiwatari. We've been growing impatient with the capture of the Phantom Thief Dark. You are to take the rest of the week off and leave it to somebody else… We've also authorized to police to stop Dark by any means necessary and authority to kill Dark should the need arise. Good-bye." The commissioner hung up without waiting for a reply.

'Gee, don't you feel special?'

'Krad… do you know what this means?'

'Yeah, we get a free vacation and Dark will finally die!'

'No, if they kill Dark… then Daisuke will die too…'

'Gawd this just keeps getting better and better! Both of them will die? That's great!'

'Krad! We can't let Daisuke die!'

'Aww, come on Satoshi, please!'

'I can't let them kill Daisuke!'
