Chapter 9 Shattered

Krad looked at them confused. How could Dark possible know what Daisuke was talking about? How could Daisuke know anything? While Krad was pondering Dark had noticed Daisuke's wings. Unlike Dark Daisuke had his red wind on the right while Dark's was on the left and the same thing went for the black wing Daisuke's was on the left and Dark's was on the right. Dark's head started hurting.

"Dark?"

Daisuke's voice sounded distant.

"Is everything alright?"

"huh…don't worry Daisuke I was just thinking."

Daisuke tilted his head a bit with a small look of confusion, sadness, and worry on his face. Dark laughed nervously trying to explain but only made a bigger fool out of himself. Daisuke snickered at his babbling companion which only made Dark's face turn red in embarrassment.

"well are you two going to answer the question or do I have to beat it out of you?"

"Right…like we are going to tell you Krad, It was Hiwatari's question so maybe we should tell it to him and not you…"

"Dark is right, I see no reason why we need to tell you Krad, and of course since Hiwatari-kun is a tamer he would understand it better."

Krad growled in anger and took out his white feather to channel his power. Daisuke and Dark got ready. Before anyone knew what was going on a flash of lightning separated Dark and Daisuke. Still what was more confusing was how Krad got behind Daisuke.

"Daisuke Look out!"

Dark could see blood fall to the ground along with some feathers but Daisuke was alright the attack only grazed his shoulder.

"Damn it Krad…using a sneak attack like that Daisuke isn't used to things like that from him like I am."

Dark looked around to see where Krad had disappeared to astonishing Krad had also gotten hurt. He had a big cut in his side and still stuck in all the blood and flesh was a red bloodstained feather. Daisuke apologized to Satoshi for hurting him under his breathe.

"watch it Krad! If you attack me the same amount of power goes back to you!"

"You little…"

" My turn! I'm getting sick of feeling left out!"

Krad turned around just in time to connect with the punch Dark was delivering. More to say it looked like Krad actually ran into Dark's fist on his own. Daisuke felt a small sharp pain in his neck as another flash of lightning though the sky, right after Dark punched Krad. As soon as the rain was the only thing the three could hear Krad started laughing which got Dark more aggressive and gave Daisuke an uneven feeling.

"Do you think you really can defeat me? Just look at Niwa he has even notice…"

Dark looked at Daisuke. Daisuke looked at Dark. Both of them where confused on what was going on till Dark spotted that something had cut Daisuke's neck.

"Spells are extremely use full in a fight where you out numbered…"

"what…"

"For example…"

Daisuke suddenly felt his chest get heavy and he wasn't able to move. The Pain beyond pain filled every inch of his body. Cuts appeared on his arms and torso.

"You see, while fighting one the you could hurt the other."

"Damn it Krad"

"come now Dark you know to well of magic do you not?"

"Yeah but I don't use it to hurt someone!"

"Come now I'm sure you have did it once."

"Don't compare me to you!"

Dark landed another punch on Krad but Krad just took it like it meant nothing. Daisuke wanted to help Dark so badly but he couldn't move thanks to Krad's spell.

"there isn't anything you can do"

"K-Krad?"

"Good I was afraid you wouldn't be able to hear me."

"What do you want"

"Aww is it that bad talking to me, well anyways I just wanted to say goodbye."

"goodbye? I'm not going anywhere, and there's no way I'm going to let you kill me or Dark."

"do you truly think you have a choice?"

"yeah I do, and I think you forgot Hiwatari-kun"

"Non-senses, I was going to use your powers to separate us.."

Daisuke couldn't say anything. After a few minutes the pain returned. He felt his wings being torn apart behind him.

"Daisuke!"

Dark had finally snapped out of his daze and noticed that Krad was behind Daisuke. He knew he wasn't going to make it still Dark at least wanted to try. He was so close, but not close enough.

Riku sighed and looked out the window. She was still worried about Daisuke. She hadn't seen him in days. She got up and decide to step out on the balcony to see the night sky. A cold wind blew making her shiver.

"That's odd its still the middle of summer why is the wind so cold?"

She looked up in the air and saw a swirl of red feathers floating towards the ocean.

"red….feathers…Daisuke!"

She quicklyran to the front door and grabbed her coat and ran towards the town. When she got closer she saw three figures in the air. There was no doubt in her mind this time. Daisuke had to be among them.

Blood dripped from Daisuke's wings as Krad held on to his unconscious body by the scuff of his shirt.

"Krad I swear you will pay"

"will I now? Well that's odd to being hearing that form you."

'Don't mess with me, I was angry at you before but you crossed the line!"

"oh my such a temper, if you want him so bad then here"

Krad tossed Daisuke at Dark who luckily caught him. Dark was relieved that Daisuke was still breathing. Still he couldn't fight Krad with Daisuke to worry about. He quickly looked around and spotted Riku running towards the spot underneath them.

'that will work..'

Dark quickly rushed past Krad towards Riku hoping that she

would help.

"Riku!"

Riku looked up and saw Dark flying right at her. She ducked as he skidded on his landing behind her.

"D-Dark? Daisuke!"

"Listen Riku I cant explain now but I need you to watch Daisuke."

"b-but how did her get this bad?"

"I'll explain later just make sure his wings don't shatter completely"

"Shatter?"

Dark sighed he really hated explaining things that's why he let Daisuke do that.

"Listen to me Riku, When our wings shatter so do our true selves because all of out magic and life was spent just make sure Krad doesn't get him he should be fine…"

Riku head spun for a second but she nodded and Dark took flight once more. Riku sighed and looked at Daisuke lying on his side with his back to her. He was in horrible shape.

"D-Daisuke?"

Daisuke slowly sat up rubbing his head.

"Ow…Darn it, I let Krad get to me"

"Your alive!"

Riku burst into tears and hugged Daisuke. Who was completely confused on what she meant and why she was there.

"Listen Riku there isn't much time I'll be right back alright?"

"But Dark told me to make sure that you stay here"

"Dark well that's new…still I'll be fine."

"B-but…Daisuke Wait!"

Riku couldn't move her legs where locked from the shock of everything going on all she did was watch Daisuke disappear into the Darkness with red feathers floating down in his wake.
