"Now Dark please tell me again why we are reading American books on clouds?" asks Daisuke yawning.
"You don't listen to all your classmates do you?" asks dark as he reads over Daisuke's shoulder.
"No not really. Most of the time they talk about you, why?"
"You know that girl who was helping us? They say she has bad luck till she's 13. Her birthday is tomorrow making her a Gemini, she has an object with the rays of the sun, and if I do believe so that Americans believe that clouds are apart of a series of bad luck," he continues to read.
Daisuke yawns again, "But what does Nimbus the cloud have to do with her?"
"Well a lot considering Riku Harada and her two preppy friends call her Nimbus has a lot to do with it. She figured I'd never figure it which I probably wouldn't so she decided to tell a fool that would never guess her as the person if she helped. She wants me to steal her pendant and give it to her on her 13th birthday as a way to say that is the end of her bad luck."
Daisuke sits there with his mouth wide open. His mother walks in with a cup of milk and cookies.
"Hey Dai, how are you and Dark doing?"
"We've solved it. Well more I than he but in the end his stupidity made the person reveal too much," says Dark from the large vanity mirror.
"Shall I send a note?" she asks.
"Yeah, let it say Dear Nefarious I've solved the riddle of the rays of sun that show only for a night and its double view blinds the other with great carelessness. Expect me on the knight of which Nimbus shall find its silver lining."
Emiko (Daisuke's mom) rushes off to write the note and Daisuke gets in bed.
"I just home you're right Dark because it won't be pleasant if you got the wrong person," he closes his eyes and instantly falls asleep drowning out the distant words of Dark.

Dear Diary,
Just one more minute till my birthday and I'm so excited. My bad luck is going to end soon. I've been having this weird feeling though. My stomach always hurts and it gets worse as my birthday draws near. I'm glade my birthday is on a Saturday that way I don't have to go to school. I do have to go shopping.

I feel my Phantom Knight will not come. Oh well it was something fun and spontaneous to do. I'll send in a letter anyways saying he solved the mystery very well and I may need him again. Well as you know I have a busy day so I must……
