Separated Wings
Chapter 3
Written by: It-chan
"Uuummmm……" Daisuke groaned under the shine of the sunlight.
Daisuke felt so tired. He just wanted to continue sleeping until he noticed something wrong. He sat up and wiped his eyes with his sleeves.
"What am I doing here?" Daisuke said tiredly.
He noticed he was holding something. He looked at his hand.
"Th-The Angel's Arch! What is it… wait, I stole it. No, Dark stole it," Daisuke explained to himself.
"That means, Dark! Dark! Are you in there?" Daisuke called out to his partner.
/what do you want// Dark answered.
"So, you're here. But I thought you were sealed."
/Let's see, something must have happened between you and Riku right// Dark asked.
Daisuke frowned and just answered.
"Don't remind me."

"Good morning mother," Daisuke said as he got down.
Daisuke still felt tired even after bathing and thought a nice breakfast will cheer him up.
"Good morning Dai-chan. You came back very late last night so…" Emiko said as her face turned around to show an angry grin "did you get it?"
Daisuke sweat dropped.
"Th-The Angel's Arch? Of course I did, I mean Dark did," Daisuke stuttered quickly.
Emiko's face turned into her good and sweet face.
"Good, I'm sure you'll gladly bring it to me after breakfast,"
"I rather give it to you then keep it to myself," Daisuke muttered under his breath.

"Mother is so scary," Daisuke said as he entered his room.
As Daisuke stepped closer to the desk where the painting was lying he stepped on something soft and furry.
"Kyuu!" the thing screamed.
Daisuke looked down to see his pet, or his pet brother, Wiz (With or what ever you call it. I'll call it Wiz so you won't get confused with with).
"Wiz, what are you doing down here?" Daisuke said as he picked up the furry thing.
"Kyuu kyuu kyuu," Wiz explained in his language.
"I'm sure you were," Daisuke answered put Wiz on his desk and held the painting up.
"I better get this painting to mother," Daisuke said.
"DAISUKE!" a voice called out to Daisuke from the balcony.
"Nana?" Daisuke said as he peeped out the balcony.
"Daisuke, good morning!" Nana said.
Nana was wearing a T-shirt with black tights today. Her hair was tied as a ponytail behind her back.
"Ohayo," Daisuke answered back.
"Ohayo?" Nana said confusingly.
'I forgot this is Malaysia!' Daisuke thought.
"It means good morning in Japanese," Daisuke explained.
"Oh," Nana muttered and balanced her head on the palm of her hands as her elbows balanced on the railing. "You're mother asked me to help you buy things for school tomorrow so I thought we should go early."
"School?" Daisuke said confusingly.
"You're such a blur-case. You think you'll live your life without schooling?" said Nana as she paid attention to what was on Daisuke's hand.
"You're right," Daisuke said, not knowing what Nana was staring at.
'What is she looking at?' Daisuke thought.
"Daisuke," Nana said quietly.
"Ye-yes?" Daisuke stuttered.
"What's on your hand?"
Daisuke looked at his hand. He was holding the Angel's Arch, which he accidentally brought with him.
"AHHHH!" Daisuke exclaimed.
He hid the painting behind his back, which was not working since it was far too big to fit behind him.
"Sorry, I'll meet you downstairs," Daisuke said and went into his house.
Nana stood at her balcony in confusion. The, she noticed something with that picture.
"Was that the, the Angel's Arch?"
X
"Mother! Here you go, the Angel's Arch," Daisuke said as he pushed the painting to his mother.
"What's the hurry?" Emiko asked her son.
"Nana wants to go buy books!"
"Emm, she decided to help since I'm still busy arranging the house. Here's you're money," Emiko said while she gave Daisuke money.
"Fine, I'll go," Daisuke muttered as he went to the door.
X
"These books are heavy!" Daisuke complained.
"What did you think? Papers?" Nana said.
"Why did we ever walk?" Daisuke muttered.
"Quit complaining. I know, why don't we rest in there," Nana said pointing to an open (as in no doors except for private places) restaurant.
"Ok, I still got some money left," Daisuke said.
The two teenagers ran to the restaurant.
X
"Daisuke," Nana called out to Daisuke who was sitting in front of her.
"What's wrong?" Daisuke asked while he sipped a glass of cold Milo.
"Are you Phantom Thief Dark?"
Daisuke spat the Milo he sipped back into the glass.
"Why?" Daisuke asked as he put his glass down.
"It's just because I thought I saw Dark change into you when I was catc… I mean on the TV," Nana explained.
"It came out on TV?" Daisuke asked, confused.
"Eh! No, I went to watch the crime scene," Nana answered hesitantly and drank a sip of her drink.
"I will answer that if you answer this. Are you working for the police?" Daisuke asked.
Now, it was Nana's turn to spit out hers.
"Why?"
"Well, you were asking me a question about the police work so I thought…"
"I will never, police are the worst. I will never work for them," Nana explained seriously.
"Well, why should I work with Dark then?" Daisuke said, taking advantage.
"Yeah, Daisuke is good, he wouldn't work with a person like Dark," Nana said smiling.
Somehow, this had hurt Daisuke. If Nana knew the truth, then she would understand that she was wrong about him being good. He had stolen a lot of things. Paintings, sculptures, statues and others.
"Nana," Daisuke mumbled.
"Yes Daisuke?" Nana answered his call.
Daisuke looked up.
"Why do you call me Daisuke not Niwa?" Daisuke blushed a little.
"Why? Is it against the rules?"
"Let's just say that in Japan, anybody who's called by his first name means they have a close relationship," Daisuke explained, blushing a little.
"Well, this is not Japan. This is Malaysia and in Malaysia, there's no such rule," Nana explained "though if you want me to call you Niwa, that's ok with me."
"That's alright!" Daisuke said nervously and blushing brighter.
"Anyway," Nana said moving closer to the table, "It means we're close friends." Nana said smiling.
Daisuke blushed much more brightly.
X
"Daisuke!"
"What's the matter Nana?" Daisuke said as he opened the sliding door which leads to the balcony.
"It's Dark!" Nana exclaimed unhappily.
"Really, what's the matter Nana?" Daisuke said lousily.
"He has sent an advance notice. It's tomorrow night. Now He's going after the Nightingale Mirror,"
"What? He sent a notice!" Daisuke said surprising.
/ Looks like your mother didn't tell you. /
/ Shut up, Dark/
"You're going to the scene tomorrow?" Daisuke asked Nana.
Daisuke was smiling madly, thinking of what he would do to his mother.
"Of course. And Dark, prepare for your last mission, the police force will capture you and then you'll lose the game. AHAHAHAHA!" Nana said and laughed evilly.
/ she's nuts /
Daisuke sweat dropped.
/ I thought she would be normal /
/ I mean she is nuts to think they would catch me. AHAHAHAHA/
Another sweat drop.
X
Next morning…
"Daisuke,"
"…"
"Daisuke!"
"…"
"Daisuke, wake up." (I wish I could write, 'Daisuke, okinasai yo' TT)
"Let me sleep more. I have to do lots of work tonight, mother,"
SLAP!
"Do I sound that old!"
"What are you doing mo… Nana?" Daisuke said as he woke up and saw that it was his neighbour and not his mother.
"You have school. I woke up early just to make sure of you," Nana explained
"Fine," Daisuke muttered.
"Daisuke," Nana called out.
"What?"
"Your mother asked me to give you your uniform," Nana said passing the clothes to Daisuke.
"Eh, where's my red T-shirt?" Daisuke said as he looked for his red T-shirt.
"This is not Japan, this is Malaysia and the whether here is hot not cold. Anyway, it feels cold because of the air-con," Nana explained.
"Oh Yeah…"
"I'll wait for you downstairs, make sure you're ready by 7am," Nana said as she got out of his room.
"Yes…"
X
"Wah…, you're the new exchange student?" a girl asked.
"What's with the red hair?" a boy asked.
"Where did you come from?" another boy asked.
"Umm…" Daisuke just said in the middle of the sea of pupils, asking him questions.
"He's Niwa Daisuke, from Japan. He doesn't understand B.M. so we got to talk in English in front of him," Nana said beside Daisuke.
"Oh, but I thought there would only be exchange students when we're in Form4 or Form5. This is just Form3" A girl said.
"Well, his mother wanted him to come now so…"
"Everyone?" a voice came from in front.
"Teacher!" the whole class said and went to their seats.
"Looks like we have a new friend in this class. Please introduce yourself." The teacher said to Daisuke.
Daisuke looked at Nana who was sitting beside him.
"just say your name, age and where you come from," Nana whispered.
Daisuke stood up nervously.
"I'm… my name is Ni-Niwa Daisuke. I'm from Japan. I'm 14 going to 13… I mean 15" Daisuke stuttered.
"And tell you're favourite or best subject and what you like,"
"My favourite subject is Arts and I like…"
Daisuke was out of ideas there. He couldn't probably well say that he likes Riku. Well not actually. He couldn't say that. It will just change him into Dark and this will end up in a very bad way.
"I like… I like strawberries," Daisuke said at last remembering his pet rabbit, Wiz likes strawberries.
Everyone stared at him. Daisuke felt that he had said something very bad.
X
After the class, Nana spoke to Daisuke.
"You-you like strawberries?" Nana said between laughs.
"What's wrong with that?" Daisuke said blushing.
"It's so girlish," Nana said.
"I didn't know what to say just now," Daisuke grumbled.
"Hahahahaha," Nana just laughed.
Daisuke looked at Nana and smiled. He joined the laughter.
'Maybe I really mistook her to be that girl I saw when Dark was stealing. She couldn't be this cheerful' Daisuke thought.
'Maybe he isn't really Darks comrade. I mean, how could he be that way if he is this girlish' Nana thought.
X
"So what do you think of school?" Nana asked Daisuke in the middle of walking home fro school.
"It's ok," Daisuke mumbled.
"You know, I don't think that green pants fits with your red hair," Nana said.
"Really?" Daisuke asked.
"Yeah,"
"But it's like this right? I can't change it." Daisuke said.
"Well, yeah, that's true,"
Daisuke frowned. Nana felt sorry for him.
"Daisuke,"
Daisuke looked up.
"Yes?"
Nana smiled and said "Let's race back home,"
Daisuke smiled.
"On the count of three, one, two, THREE!"
X
/Daisuke, you've gotten slower/ Dark said inside Daisuke.
"What do you mean?" Daisuke asked.
/The fact that that girl raced with you and got a Draw, you've gotten slower. /
"Maybe Malaysians were born racers or, with fast feet or something," Daisuke grumbled.
/Maybe you should ask her to jump as high as you can, then you'll understand what I mean by you getting slower/ Dark sniggered.
"SHUT UP!" Daisuke exclaimed angrily.
X
"Mother! Mother!" Nana called her mother.
"What's the matter Nana?" Her mother answered back.
"Nobody should beat me in running right?" Nana asked in a serious tone.
"Of course not. You are trained to be fast. Why?"
"Daisuke,"Nana whispered and then remembered, "Daisuke beat me in a race," Nana said.
"Japanese people must be athletic. I mean, Japanese people are USUALLY very athletic to keep fit,"
"Ok, I'm gonna take a bath."
With that, Nana went into the bathroom.
X
/Now where after the Nightingale Mirror/ Dark asked Daisuke mentally.
/Yeah. It's on the 1st floor. /
/ But in this case, it will be hidden /
/So the checkpoint.../
/Will be…/
/The store room/ Daisuke said easily.
/THE STORE ROOM/
/Well, that's the best place to hide a painting. There are a lot of other paintings in there. /
/They have a store room//
/We will find out sooner or later/
Dark quickly hide on the roof, dodging the lights. He slipped into the building without being seen by the police below.
/They sure have a lot of police./
/It must be a very important thing/
/But it was made by a Hikari/
/I agree/
/Looks like we just have to blend in/
Dark move closer to a police standing quite open, nearby. He knocked the police out and wore the clothes of the police.
/Your eyes will show that you are Dark/ Daisuke said.
/Then, I'll just wear the contact Lens that your mother bought for me. It will at least camouflage my eyes. /
/How about your hair/
/Don't underestimate me. I use magic/
/Fine, do what ever you like/ Daisuke said pissed off.
Dark hid his hair inside the police cap. Fortunately, the lights were closed and the police only used torch lights so this gave an opportunity to Dark to hide his true hair colour.
/Let's go/
Dark just walk like normal through the hall full of police. They came to where the mirror should be. In the case, was the mirror, shining under the light. The mirror, encrusted in a frame with two Nightingale made of marble. It even took Dark's breath away.
/Now I know why they want to protect it so much. / Daisuke said in awe.
/We've got to steal it. /
/but how? The polices are all here/
/we've just got to distract them/
/How? Sending With outside to fly in circles/
/If that girl is here, then this time, that trick won't work. /
/Then? We can't just stand here. /
/Wait/ Dark said suddenly.
"Where's Dark? He's late." A police whispered behind him/them.
"Yeah, he is supposed to be here minutes ago," another police said.
"He must be lost. He just came to Malaysia,"
"Anyway, he won't find the Nightingale Mirror anyway. That's just a fake and his target is actually in the storeroom."
"Yeah."
Dark sweat dropped.
/Aren't they like don't care if anybody overheard what they said//
/YEAH! I'm CORRECT! It is in the store room like I said/
/You didn't say anything. You're in my mind. Hello//
/Let's get moving. We wanna get that mirror fast. I want to sleep early/ Daisuke said and yawned.
Dark nodded and walked out of the hall. He walked almost the whole first floor to get to the storeroom.
X
Dark opened the door like normal. He went into the store room and closed the door quietly. Once inside, he stripped out of the police clothes.
"Now, let's get the mirror," Dark said.
/If only we know where to start/
Dark looked at the store room. The room was full of unwanted painting ad sculptures. Some broken and not useful, some still could be used.
"Well, we will just sense it with magic," Dark said.
Dark moved through the aisles while closing his eyes. He tried to find any magic aura and suddenly he found what he wanted.
"It's here," Dark said as he slipped his hands in a hole between two paintings. He took out something covered in a white clothe. He unwrapped it to find the real nightingale mirror. "Easy peasy,"
"I'm sorry Dark, today's just not your day," someone exclaimed making it echo in the store room.
"Who's there?" Dark said.
"I'm not in the mood for introductions," The person became visible as she came out of her hiding place. It was the acrobatics girl.
Dark smirked.
"Then just tell me your name," Dark said to the girl who once almost caught him.
Today or to be precise, tonight, she was wearing the same leotard and tights only she was wearing a jacket outside of the leotard.
"Then I will make my own pen name like you. If you're Dark, then I must be light. The police calls me Liza (this is Malaysia so the names don't quite sound English or Japanese) as a short for my name," the girl said.
"Well, why not I call you light because you seem to light up my life," Dark said.
She growled (quite fierce for a girl. Well, most girls are now days.). Nana (yup, for those guys that are slow, Nana IS this girl here) ran straight forward to Dark and grabbed the mirror. Dark was surprised with this sudden attack. Then, he smiled. Their backs were facing each other.
"I will let you go with that mirror if you tell me why you want to guard it so much," Dark said.
"Just mind your own business," Nana said.
"You just need to tell me this and I'll be of and never to steal anymore paintings in this country,"
"I won't."
"It must be because you're connected to the Hikari's,"
This seemed to have surprised Nana.
"Right?" Dark asked.
"Why do you even care?"
"Because I can see you're lonely"
/Daisuke, I'll leave this to you/
"Eh?" Dark suddenly changed back into Daisuke.
"What do you mean I'm lone…" Nana said as she turned back to face Dark but eventually faced Daisuke, "Dai…suke…?" Nana said as she got more confused.
Silence filled the room. Daisuke who was scared to look behind and face Nana just stood there. Nana, confused, moved her lips.
"Is it really you?" Nana asked softly.
"You found out. Yeah." Daisuke said, smiling sadly.
"So you're the other half?"
"And you're really from the Hikari's?"
Silence.
"QUICKLY! FIND HIM!" a voice suddenly echoed in the store room.
"Quick, hide. The police," Daisuke said as he led Nana out of the building.
X
With the help of their acrobatics, they managed to go to a park quite far from the Museum. As Daisuke sat down on a bench, Nana just stood, her back facing Daisuke. Daisuke looked up.
"You have a relationship with the Hikari's?" Daisuke asked.
Nana just kept quiet.
"A little. My father was from the Hikari's and my mother from Dark's side. She now supports the Hikari's though," Nana mumbled loud enough for Daisuke to hear.
"So, you ad I could be related," Daisuke asked.
"Yes. But maybe now, we're not friends huh?"
"No, we're still friends. We will stay friends,"
Nana turned.
"What do you mean! If my mom find out, if she finds out…." tears came rolling down her cheeks.
Nana rubbed the tears with her sleeves but as a result, more tears came down. Daisuke stood up and went closer to her and hugged her. Nana was surprised but just agreed and cried under his chest.
"I… I don't want us to be just friends," Nana said in between sobs.
Daisuke looked surprised.
"Because… because, I want you to be my best friend," Nana said "I did feel lonely just like what Dark said," Nana confessed and cried more.
X
Nana finished crying and sat beside Daisuke on the bench.
"To tell you the truth, when I was small, my mother will always train me to get results like this so I would qualify to be Dark," Daisuke said, remembering tales of childhood.
"Me too. But I wasn't destined to become a thief or detective so my body was not like yours. I didn't have tie to play, watch TV or anything a kid should do." Nana said.
Daisuke looked at her. He never knew anyone that suffered more then him.
"I was always left out at school. I always felt lonely. When you came, you suddenly filled a hole in a part of me, or maybe just because I'm part Dark and Krad so you filled the Dark part. Actually, I also felt painful sometimes and i wonder what happen. It should only happen to the males but I could feel, something fighting inside me, as if Dark and Krad are fighting. I couldn't sleep well and once, I even didn't go to school because I didn't sleep one whole night. When Dark appeared, I felt more pain, maybe because the Hikari was reacting but when I got near you, I feel a warm presence. As if some one was trying to stop all the fighting. It felt nice. I just don't know how to put it as," Nana said.
"I had a feeling like that. It was when I was with my Divine Maiden. I always feel warm and felt as if my worries have been blown away by her. It was always nice to be beside her but I had to part with her," Daisuke confessed.
"And I'm gonna part with you," Nana mumbled.
Daisuke heard it and turned to face her.
"What do you mean?"
"There were only two Hikari paintings here in Malaysia. You're done. You're family is going and seeking another Hikari artifact," Nana explained.
"Then, you'll follow. You ARE half Dark," Daisuke said.
Nana shooked her head.
"What about mother?"
Daisuke thought but nothing came.
"Looks like it can't happen," Daisuke said frowning.
"But that's ok," Nana said with a sad smile.
"No it's not ok," Daisuke suddenly exclaimed, "You said you feel lonely and you sad I fill a hole in your life. If I go, you'll be lonely. I don't want you to go thru this because," Daisuke thought for a moment, "Because we're friends and that's what friends are for." Daisuke mumbled the last part.
Nana smiled.
X
"Daisuke! You'll be late for school!" Nana shouted out to Daisuke who was just closing the gate of his house.
"Wait a minute," Daisuke grumbled as he latched the gate with a piece of bread in his mouth.
"Quickly!" Nana shouted.
Daisuke finished latching the door and quickly caught up with Nana. He chewed on the bread.
"You're so slow," Nana commented as she ran beside Daisuke.
"Malaysian school time is a hard thing to catch up with. I don't know how you wake up at 6am to bathe, pray and eat," Daisuke complained.
"You don't have to bother with it anymore when you go," Nana mumbled under her breath and stared down on the road.
Daisuke looked at her with sympathy.
'Maybe that's how Riku felt when I left. Or maybe worst because I didn't tell her,' Daisuke thought.
X
Zoom to after school…
"Daisuke, will you go shopping with me afterwards?" Nana asked Daisuke on the way home.
"If I don't have to carry all the things you'll buy," Daisuke said.
"Don't worry, you won't," Nana said with a little laugh.
"Then, ok. What time do we go?"
"What about 2?"
"Sounds fine," Daisuke said.
"Then 2 it is,"
"I'll meet you at your house," Daisuke sad.
"Umm… Okay," Nana hesitated.
"What's wrong?" Daisuke asked.
"Ehhh! Nothing!" Nana said blushing.
"Funny," Daisuke said smiling sweetly to Nana.
Nana blushed brightly.
X
"What happened just now?" Nana asked herself.
Flash back…
"What's wrong?" Daisuke asked.
"Ehhh! Nothing!" Nana said blushing.
"Funny," Daisuke said smiling sweetly to Nana.
Nana blushed brightly.
End of flash back.
Nana placed her hand at her chest and blushed.
"My heart was beating fast," Nana said.
Silence. Then, Nana shook her head.
"No way, I must be stupid. I mean him? No way. His just a friend," Nana went down and drank a glass of cold water to soothe her down.
Nana then went up and changed her clothes.
X
Daisuke went out his house and walked to Nana's house which a was at the left side of his house (Why do I even bother writing walking when I just can write turn to the left and why do I even bother writing this and here I go again). He rang the bell. To his surprise, he had to ring it a few times until a response came. A head pooped out from the window to look at the person and then the door opened and the Lady of the house came out.
"Well, hello Daisuke," the Lady said. (No offence but I'm really lazy to make names up Nana's name was just something I made up from… read it at the notes below chapter 3)
"Hello," Daisuke answered back.
The lady walked closer and opened the gate.
"Nana's room is upstairs. 1st to the right," the Lady said.
Daisuke nodded and walked into the house. He noticed that the house was full of things that concern Dark and Krad. A sample of the feather of Dark and Krad intercepted, similar to the one in his house was also there. Many pictures of Dark in different generations were there. Including Krads. There were a lot of notes around the house.
"Sorry for the mess. I work with the detectives in the catching Dark case," Lady said.
"Ahh," Daisuke said meaning he understood it.
Daisuke found the stairs. He climbed up the stairs and turned right. There were 5 rooms, just like his house. Nut instead of 4 rooms to the right, the 4 rooms were to the right while on the right was only one room like his.
'So that's how the balcony faces my room' Daisuke thought.
Daisuke quickly understood that this house was the same as his house only it was the opposite. Instead of left, it is right and instead of right, it is left. He walked slowly to the room and knocked on the door.
"JUST A MINUTE!" Nana's voice could be heard shouting inside.
The thumping of Nana's feet running towards the door could be heard. Then, the door opened.
"Daisuke!" Nana exclaimed when she saw Daisuke in front of her door.
"Hi Nana," Daisuke said.
"Come in," Nana said as she motioned for him to enter her room.
"Sorry to disturb," Daisuke whispered as he entered the room.
Unlike downstairs, this room was bright. The walls were painted baby blue ad the bed was a single bed with a dark blue bed cover. There was a neat dressing table with 2 drawers in it. There was also a cupboard and decorations. Daisuke looked at the open balcony door. He ran to it and looked outside. He could see his room.
"So this is how my bedroom look like from you're view," Daisuke said as he looked at his room with his balcony door opened a bit to let fresh air enter his room.
"Yeah," Nana said as she joined Daisuke.
"Looks like I'll have to change the positions of my furniture so you won't see my private things," Daisuke said as he turned and smiled at Nana.
Nana blushed. She turned around so her face won't be facing Daisuke.
"Ye-yeah," Nana just agreed without caring a word he said.
Daisuke looked at Nana, confused.
/BANG! Cupid just hit Nana's heart/ Dark said inside Daisuke. (Giving Dark a chance to say something)
/What do you mean 'bang'/ Daisuke asked Dark confusingly.
/Can't you see Nana's in love// Dark said.
"EH? REALLY! WHO!" Daisuke asked not noticing he was actually saying it aloud.
"Daisuke, what's the matter?" Nana asked.
"Eh, nothing," Daisuke said.
"Okay, I want to get ready so wait for a while," Nana said.
/Baka/
/Dark, who is she in love with/ Daisuke asked.
/Someone's jealous/ Dark mocked Daisuke.
/No I'm not! I'm just curious/ Daisuke said as he blushed a little.
/Liar. You're just jealous someone caught Nana's heart right// Dark continued.
/NO/ Daisuke screamed in his mind.
/So, explain why you were both dating that night after escaping from the museum? HUGGING// Dark asked laughing.
"DARK!" Daisuke shouted again not noticing that he was saying it aloud.
Nana popped out of the bath room.
"What's wrong Daisuke?"
Daisuke blushed a little.
"No-nothing," Daisuke laughed a simple laugh.
"Okay," Nana sad and went back in the bathroom right after blushing.
/You're just blur Daisuke. If you're not, you would already know who/
/Shut up/
/I want to sleep anyway/ and with that, Dark became quiet.
X
"Don't you think this suits you?" Nana said as he picked a white long sleeved shirt.
"Wouldn't that just look like the librarians uniform?"
"Who said we're buying a uniform. This is style. You can wear a black T-shirt inside with trousers."
"Nana, my Japanese school uniform is already like that," Daisuke said.
"But who would wear to walk around. And it's not like your going to wear it until a long time,"
"Eh? I thought the Hikari's were done for in Malaysia," Daisuke said.
"Is there only Malaysia? There is still India, Russia and other countries," Nana simply said.
"WHAT?"
"Anyway, this shirt will really suit Dark too," Nana said with a small smile and a light blush.
"Eh?" Daisuke softened down.
/I get it! Dark, Nana's in love with you/ Daisuke said to Dark.
/What makes you think that way/ Dark asked.
/She did look all lovey dovey when she thought of you/
/Shut up/
'Daisuke's quite cute when he's all surprised and confused at the same time' Nana thought, 'wait, what am I thinking? I must be stupid,' Nana then shook her head.
"Daisuke, I'll buy you this shirt as a present okay?" Nana said.
"Okay," Daisuke just agreed.
X
"A jam at a time like this," Nana said when she saw all the cars stacking in front.
"In this kind of traffic, I don't think we will get to the LRT (a sort of transport kind of like a train for people who don't know what it is. But I don't know its international name) station in time," Daisuke grumbled beside Nana.
"And I don't think a taxi with no passengers would arrive,"
"Looks like we will be stuck here till night,"
"And we have to be back by 7. It's already 6 now." Nana said sighing.
"How long will it take to go home? On the train that is," Daisuke asked.
"About 30 minutes," Nana said.
"We still have time," Daisuke said.
"Nope, using a taxi without this much cars is about 20 minutes but with this,"
Both of them sigh.
Minutes passed on and no empty taxi passed. Taxi's that were empty will always be taken before they got there.
"Nana, what time is it…" Daisuke asked.
"6:20," Nana muttered.
"AH! I got an idea!" Daisuke suddenly exclaimed.
"What is it?" Nana asked.
"Come here," Daisuke said and motioned Nana to come closer.
He held Nana's face and moved it closer to his lips. His lips went closer to Nana's cheek. Nana blushed and closed her eyes. Daisuke came closer and closer and he… whispered to her ears.
"If we can't walk or find a taxi, we fly," Daisuke said.
Nana opened her eyes with embarrassment. She stared away from Daisuke and just answered him.
"That's ok for you but I don't have wings,"
"That's no problem," Daisuke said and stood up.
"Let's go find a suitable place to do it," Daisuke said and held a hand to Nana.
Nana blushed lightly and took his hand.

Daisuke had dragged Nana into a park where nobody was. They went into the center of the park.
"Ok, wait here," Daisuke said asking Nana to stand at the edge off the park. (I'm not good at explaining things)
"Okay," Nana said.
"Now, no matter what happens, promise don't come anywhere near me. Not even if I ask you too come near me. But if you see me not moving for about 3 minutes, then it's best you do," Daisuke said looking serious.
"Okay," Nana nodded.
Daisuke went to the center of the park. The edge of the park was full of trees so it would be a perfect place to put on his wings. (I don't know any suitable word for how Daisuke get's his wings.)
The sun shone brightly in the horizon, shadowing Daisuke's form. The clock ticked to 6:50. Nana just stood like what Daisuke had ordered her to and waited for Feathers to flap behind Daisuke. (I told you I'm not good at explaining). Suddenly, she heard Daisuke groan in pain. She saw Daisuke holding his chest.
"Daisuke!" Nana called out moving a step closer but remembered what Daisuke had warned her. She moved back and closed her eyes to pray.
Daisuke's pain could be heard by her but she held back the urge to go and ease his pain. Daisuke on the other hand was already on his knees. He couldn't breath but he held the pain. Nana, who couldn't resist anymore ran to Daisuke and kneeled beside him.
"Daisuke, are you alright?" Nana asked holding his shoulders to stabilize him. (Duh he's not alright!)
Daisuke opened his eyes a little bit and to Nana's surprise, hugged her. Nana blushed (she blushed a lot today.)
"Daisuke, are you alright!" Nana asked more, shaking him now.
Wings came from Daisuke's back.
"Daisuke!" Nana exclaimed.
Slowly, they left the ground. Nana just kept quiet and closed her eyes as she felt her feet leaving the ground. She could hear Daisuke panting hard behind her.

"It-s alright. You can open your eyes now. But don't let go," Daisuke said.
"Emmm…" Nana just hummed in agreement and slowly opened her eyes. She could see the city below her. Then, she remembered Daisuke's condition.
"Daisuke,"
"Yes?"
"Are you alright?" Nana asked softly.
"Emm…" Daisuke said.
"But you're sweating so much," Nana said almost in tears. She could feel his wet shirt at the back.
"Don't worry. It's a normal thing," Daisuke answered.
"I'm sorry," Nana whispered.
"Sorry for what?" Daisuke asked, confused.
"If I hadn't asked you to accompany me to the city, you wouldn't be doing this," Nana said, shedding a tear.
"Don't worry. I'm fine," Daisuke ushered her.
"No your not! I think it will be better if we hadn't met. Then, nobody will interfere with Dark's stealing and you wouldn't have to suffer this much," Nana said.
Silence.
"You know what, I don't think of that for you," Daisuke sad.
"Don't lie!"
"Really. If I hadn't met you, I wouldn't be this cheerful in Malaysia and I wouldn't have visited the city. I wouldn't have a great neighbour and Dark will feel bored because it was so easy stealing things," Daisuke said.
"Really?"
"Yes and worst of all, I wouldn't have get a better friend then you are."
Nana smiled.
"DAISUKE'S THE BEST!" Nana shouted and hugged Daisuke tighter.
"AH! You're strangling me!"

The week went better then any other days. Nana and Daisuke was scolded because they were late by 20 minutes but they both had good excuses though Daisuke had a hard time with the question 'why his shirt was torn'. No more cases of Dark were reported. Daisuke and Nana spent time together more so it would be their memory together.

"DAISUKE!" Nana called out.
"Nana?" Daisuke looked at her with a confused look.
Nana ran loser to Daisuke.
"What are you doing here?" Daisuke asked Nana.
"I decided to follow your family go and collect all the Hikari paintings," Nana said smiling brightly.
"That means… WHAT? Wouldn't it be better if you stay here in Malaysia?"
"But it feels boring," Nana grumbled.
"But what can you do?"
"Do you mean I'm not useful?" Nana asked angrily.
"No it's just," Daisuke said.
"I'm following no matter what!" Nana said.
"This is getting worst," Daisuke muttered.
Nana smiled.
'Maybe I do like him, maybe I don't but he's my most precious friend, Daisuke,'

Anyway, I have no ideas for the next chapter. Where should they go? I wish I
