Chapter 9: The Voice that Calls

Dark was lying peacefully within Daisuke's arms when he heard a soft voice. Slowly he sat up, careful not to wake his sleeping companion. He felt better and noticed that his headache had also vanished.

Come here, follow my voice

'There it is again. But, who is it?' the thief questioned himself as he slowly left the room. Glancing at the clock, he realized that it was around noon and that they had been asleep all morning. "Well, guess no school today. That's good."

Please, hurry. Follow my voice

"Who are you?" Dark whispered in a very quiet tone. He got no reply. Instead, a cold wind blew past him, causing him to shiver as he walked down the hall and into the main hall.

This way...follow my voice, hurry

Dark was fed up with the voice and wanted to ignore it. As he turned to go back, a shiver rushed past him and he quickly turned to see a small girl with light green eyes and short brown hair. "Who are you?"

…………………………………………………………………………………………………

Krad was bored so he decided to take a walk. As he passed the hall, he saw Dark whispering to, well…nothing. 'Odd, maybe he's delirious...maybe I should—' Krad's thought went unfinished as the thief began to walk outside. The rain had stopped and Dark grabbed his sneakers as he left.

"Dark?" Krad was curious and silently followed as the thief ran around a corner. "Maybe I should get Satoshi and Daisuke…"

Please hurry...follow my voice

That time, Krad had also heard the voice. 'That sounds familiar...' Krad grabbed his cloak and hid his wings as he watched Dark suddenly stop.

"Tell me where you're taking me." He said and the girl smiled. Not an evil one but a fun one.

To my master...she would like to see you, Dark

"H-how do you know who I am?" Dark was freaking out. How did this thing know who he was? He didn't remember giving his name to the girl…

'Who in the world is she?' Krad thought, landing a few yards behind them. He saw the girl. She wore a pale yellow dress and a single ring on her finger. From that, Krad guessed that she was a lost spirit or perhaps an unsealed artwork.

Come, come quickly...just follow me

"Why should I?" Dark asked, his amethyst eyes studying the girl.

Because my master expects you, now follow me

She ran off towards an odd looking building and Dark followed, his mind telling him to go back with each step. Krad took one last look at where they were heading before he went to get the other two.

…………………………………………………………………………………………………

"Yawn Ahh, what a nice sleep…" Daisuke stretched, rustling his hair. "How was your sleep, Dark? Dark?" The boy looked around the room. No Dark. A fear rose inside him. 'What if he left? What if he ran off again?'

"Satoshi!" the redhead dashed to the door and bumped right into the blue haired boy with a thump. The two fell to the floor and Daisuke rubbed his head. The detective fixed his glasses and helped them both up.

"What's the rush for?" he asked as Daisuke brushed himself off.

"Have you seen Dark?"

"No. I was looking for Krad. Any ideas of where they might be?"

"Satoshi! Master Satoshi!" The golden angel was tapping on the window and the boy let him in.

"What's the matter?" Daisuke asked as Krad gracefully landed in the room.

"Dark is following an odd looking girl to what appears to be an abandon church. I think it may be an unsealed Hikari artwork." The angel answered.

Satoshi nodded and grabbed his jacket. Daisuke grabbed Dark's as well as his own and they followed Krad to the building and went inside. "What's this?" Daisuke took out the book from the purple jacket and scanned the letters.

"Where did you get that?" Satoshi asked as he snatched the book away.

"It was in Dark's jacket. He must've been looking for something." The redhead answered as the bluenette scanned its contents. Krad stopped it at one page.

"That's the girl, the one he was following."

"She's called Memory of the Soul, this was supposed to be sealed by my parents…strange that it appears when Dark and Krad show up."

"Perhaps it is using something as a medium as the Second Hand of Time was with Daisuke." Krad suggested, eyeing the inside with curiosity.

He walked around and examined the place as the two boys read over what the artwork was about. A certain picture caught his attention and he stopped to decipher its meaning. He noted that neither the thief nor the girl was around and kept his guard up for anything suspicious.

The picture was what appeared to be a town, rather yet, a village. It was small enough to fit in a backpack though it didn't seem to be worth much. He pushed some of his golden bangs behind his ear and saw something out of the corner of his eye.

"Krad, what are you doing?" Satoshi asked the dazed blonde.

"Nothing, let's go find the thief." When he looked back, the something was gone.

…………………………………………………………………………………………………

We're almost there...please hurry

"I'm coming, I'm coming!" the teen growled as he climbed over some rocks that had been left after the building had been half demolished. He gave a slight cough and regained his composer as he reached the top.

"Okay, now what?"

We're here...in the next room, my master will speak with you, Dark

'Run! Run! Don't stay here! Danger!' He mind yelled at him but his body walked forward. He slowly turned the handle and let out a short gasp.

"It's, you…"
