Chapter 17: Fighting Together

The four watched as the creature beat its wings and flexed its hand. "Krad…we should leave, now!" Dark said and the angel nodded. "Let's go, Daisuke!"

Krad summoned his wings and flew with Satoshi as Dark grabbed Daisuke. As they both flew through the sky, they noticed that Black Wings was watching them. Krad looked back and saw that it had taken to the air.

"Krad, what's happening?" Satoshi asked. The blond looked at him and bit his lip.

"Nothing, just hang on." He turned to the thief. "Dark, we must do something. Black Wings is catching up!"

"I know, I know! But I can't think of anything." The thief replied as he also looked back.

"You cannot escape!"

"Ahhh!" Black Wings had grabbed Krad's wing and he had dropped the boy. "Master Satoshi!"

"I got him!" Dark went into a headfirst dive as Krad fought the creature. He held Daisuke close and grabbed Satoshi's arm before soaring up. "Are you alright?"

"F-fine…" Satoshi watched as his angel fought. Dark flew over to a large clearing and placed them down.

"Daisuke, try to contact Emiko or Daiki. Satoshi, you see if it says anything in the Hikari book I had." Dark turned away after placing a light kiss on Daisuke. "I have to help Krad so be careful."

"Dark…" Dark gave a smile and flew off. Satoshi was the first to get up. Daisuke nodded and they both ran towards Satoshi's house. "If we get the book, we can contact my mom from your house."

"Right, let's just hope they can last that long…"

…………………………………………………………………………………………………

"Ah!" Black Wings had Krad in a rough hold. The angel struggled to free himself from its grasp.

"You will be the first to be sealed...Dark will be next." It said and Krad's eyes went wide as a sword appeared within the creature's free hand. "Farewell..."

"Not on my watch!" Dark sent a blast of magic at it and it released the angel. Krad flew beside him and nodded at him.

Black Wings looked at them before summoning two large spheres. "You will not escape your destiny" It threw the magic at them and the two easily dodged before striking back.

"Krad, you go around him and I'll distract him. Attack from above and then make a run for it!" Dark told him. Krad blinked twice before nodding. "Be careful. Satoshi would be sad if anything happened to you."

"Thank you." Krad flew off and Dark went head on with the creature. The skeleton watched and waited as the thief came closer. When he was only a few yards away, he launched an attack.

"Ah!" Dark hit the ground and shakily got to his feet before he smirked as Krad caught it off guard; slamming into it with magic in both arms. The creature fell with a cry and Dark flew beside the angel. Both shot at it before flying off at top speed to find Daisuke and Satoshi.

"Ahhh! Where is it!" Emiko had just received a call from Daisuke and was searching all over for a spell. "Daiki, did you check over there? Towa, check the books! Kosuke, help me over here!"

"Maybe it's upstairs?" The green eyed girl said. She ran upstairs and looked. Kosuke scanned over all the books until he found one.

"Hey, I think this will help." Everyone turned and Emiko smiled as she hugged him. Daiki sighed and placed the room back in order.

"Okay, now we just need to find out what the artwork can do!" Emiko stated.

"Well, Daisuke said that he and Satoshi were getting a book so we should study the spell for when they arrive. They said that they'd come over when they found it." The brown-eyed man said and everyone nodded in agreement as they went upstairs.

"Towa, get everything ready." Emiko said to the girl. "Kosuke, wait outside to see if they're coming. And dad, help me and Towa."

"Did you find it, Satoshi?" The redhead asked as he looked over the contents of the book the detective was scanning.

"No, not yet…wait! Here!" Satoshi pointed to the table of contents. "Black Wings, page one hundred and two." They turned to the page and began reading.

"It was created over four hundred years ago…" Satoshi said. "Rumored to be one of the greatest works of the Hikari for giving life from an artwork…"

"Black Wings was divided into two, light and dark, that would represent the balance of it." Daisuke continued. "The two were created and used for the purpose of the Hikari until they were turned against each other by their masters and became enemies…"

"They were going to be sealed but the Niwa family, a family friend of the Hikari, took one and sealed it into their son so that he would be spared…" Satoshi picked up. "The Hikari were angered and sealed the remaining one into their son so that the light would meet and destroy the dark when the time was right."

"Dark, the name was given to the one taken by the Niwa family. He was trained to become a thief…" the red eyed boy said. "Krad, the name given to the one left with the Hikaris. He was the light and became the hunter of the thief…"

"Wow…who knew that that was the story of how it all began…" Daisuke said as he finished reading.

"Yeah, but your family saved them both, in a way, because they took Dark." The detective stated and shut the book. "C'mon, we don't have much time. We'll read the rest later."

"Dai-chan!" Dark's voice caught his attention and the boy opened the window to let the two inside.

"Dark! What happened to the skeleton thing? Are you hurt?" Dark shook his head as Satoshi checked on Krad.

"We ran away from the thing, and no, I'm fine. Just a bump or two. That's all really." Daisuke was satisfied with the answer and nodded.

"Krad…your wing, it's hurt."

"It's nothing Satoshi. Were you able to find out about anything?" Krad wanted to change the topic and Satoshi sighed, handing him the book.

"Here, we should go to Daisuke's house. They said that they would help and are searching for spell as we speak." The detective said and Krad wrapped an arm around him.

"Satoshi, thank you for caring about me…I'll repay you later." The boy blushed as the angel brought him close. "Now we need to worry about the artwork."

Krad turned to Dark who in turn nodded and glanced outside. Nothing was there…no sound at all. "Anything?"

"No…that's what worries me." The thief answered and Krad nodded. "We'll have to be fast. We don't know where it went."

Together, they grabbed their tamers and flew towards the Niwa house as unnoticed eyes watched them.
