"Tigre Tempesta?" Daisuke said as the said tiger was standing in front of his family and Daisuke knew how dangerous it is when it spewed out the reddish flames.
"That's right. But then you should know what this tiger is fully capable of doing and how it saved your life last night." Kuroi said as she sat down back onto the couch with the tiger kneeling beside her.
"Right now I have a request for Phantom Thief Dark right now. And can you all please sit down and relax the tiger isn't going to do anything unless I tell it to do so or when it feels you are going to attack me or him." Kuroi replied as she saw how tense the Niwa Household plus maid were.
"And what do you want Dark to do?" Emiko asked as Kuroi rummaged something in her bag and took out a small package.
"What I require of Dark is what's inside this package." Kuroi said as she began to look bored.
Daisuke picked up the package and opened it's contents revealing several photographs of rings.
"These are just photographs of rings. If you want rings we have plenty of them to give you." Towa said.
"But I want the rings in the picture. They are far more valuable than the Hikari family's rings. Those rings are known as the King's rings." Kuroi said.
Daisuke noticed something on one of the photographs. One of the photos held the exact same ring as the one he took last night.
"That's right. You already hold one of the King's rings. Hikari and I already have 2 of them. My cousin holds 1 as well." Kuroi said still looking bored.
"Ms. Kuroi we'll accept this if you answer some of my questions I have." Kosuke said as the rest of his family looked at him in curiosity.
"Ask away, like it'll do you any better." Kuroi said as she took out her ring and began polishing it with a tissue.
"What are the eyes of sky?" Kosuke asked.
Kuroi stopped polishing her rings and looked at Kosuke. "Where did you hear of that?" Kuroi asked.
"Answer my question and then I'll answer yours." Kosuke replied back as his family members wondered what he meant by that as well.
"The eyes of sky is a special genetic heredity that occurs in the eyes. The eyes will automatically turn orange-ish and the user gains enhanced reflexes and a state of mind known as hyper intuition. Now how about you answer my question." Kuroi said.
"All right then. I believe you said your cousin has 1 ring am I correct?" Kosuke said.
"Yeah he does. But what does that have to do with anything with what I asked?" Kuroi replied back.
"I guess I better tell you guys the story then." Kosuke said as he prepared his long speech.
========Flashback to several months ago=========
Kosuke was walking down the streets of Seoul, South Korea where he heard a rumor of a ring that may have been made by the Hikari family. "South Korea looks so peaceful I have to bring Emiko down to this place." Kosuke thought as he finally arrived at his destination: an old antique shop. By the time he arrived it was already dark. "Seems kind of fitting that this antique shop is placed in the most deserted spot in Seoul as it holds a great secret." Kosuke thought as he entered.
"Hello how may I help you?" the elderly owner replied in Korean.
"I'm here to see a ring that is in this store." Kosuke replied back.
"Ah yes the ring in this store is very special. But are you sure you can…handle it?" the owner replied hesitantly.
"Of course it is just a ring of course." Kosuke replied as the store owner disappeared into the back of the room and came with a box.
"I have seen many people try to take the ring but all have failed miserably and suffered terrible consequences." The store owner said.
Kosuke opened the box and it revealed a ring with an orange colored stone in the center with the words that he swore was in English stating: the sky king's ring. Just before he touched it a voice rang out in the room stating: You are not my chosen wielder. But he is coming soon."
Kosuke tried to grab it but the ring erupted into orange flames and seemed like the flames were protecting the ring.
The store owner muttered something and the ring's flame died out and for some reason the box remained the same. Then the store owner looked at Kosuke and said "It's seems the ring has not chosen you. But as you have just heard the ring's chosen wielder is coming soon. I shall entrust this to you but by the way it isn't going to be cheap. I also only accept cash not traveler's checks." The store owner said as he saw Kosuke going for his traveler's check.
"Do you accept credit cards?" Kosuke asked as he realized he has no money.
The door opened again and revealed two dark robed men. "Old man we are here for that ring." One of the men said.
"You may not touch it. For so long as I am the guardian of this ring you will not touch it as the chosen wielder is coming soon." The store owner said as he took out a ring and a box.
"Ah, speaking in Korean tires me out too much. Foolish old man you will regret trying to stop us. My master wants that ring and we shall deliver it to him. Box open!" the robed man said as he inserted a bluish flame into a small blue box while his companion did the same except with a purplish flame into a purple box.
Kosuke was blinded by the boxes opening and when the light dissipated it revealed the robed men wielding weapons one with a scythe with a bluish flame surrounding it and one with a small knife with a purplish flame surrounding it. They attacked the old man who opened his box revealing a blast of huge orange flames and sending the robed men out of the door. Kosuke just stood in complete shock. "There isn't much time you must hurry and escape with the ring-" the shop keeper said but was stopped as there was a knife thrown into his arm.
Kosuke turned around and saw one of the robed men holding a knife but it was the same knife thrown. "How did you do that? You still have your knife in your hand!" Kosuke said as he pulled a small revolver out of his pocket.
"What is that going to do for you? You have 6 bullets. But as for me I can have as many knives as I want." The knife wielding robed man said as he twirled his hands and revealed that the knives were multiplying.
"Impossible how were you able to escape the flames I shot at you?" the shop keeper said as he began to spit out blood.
"Your getting old. Those flames barely tickled us but it was enough to burn down the entrance of your shop and send us outside. And now it's time to die." The scythe wielding man said as he took his scythe and swung it revealing a shockwave of blue flames heading towards the wounded shop keeper.
An explosion occurred and the robed men were laughing loudly. "You guys laugh like total retards. I've heard better laughs in my lifetime and I'm only 18." A voice said from behind the smoke.
The robed men stopped laughing and prepared themselves for whatever was behind the smoke. Kosuke then heard the same voice and this time it magnified itself to those near it. "My chosen wielder has been found." The ring said as the box erupted into flames and flew towards the smoke.
"So this is the famous King's ring eh?" the voice said revealing a young man of 18 wearing a coat and holding the old shop keeper up.
"At long last I have seen the chosen wielder of this ring. It is an honor to meet you chosen wielder." The old man said as he began to spew out more blood.
"Save your breath for now. This battle shall be over soon." The young man said as he handed the old man to Kosuke.
"And who the hell are you to interrupt our business. But since you have the ring I say that you hand it over to us before you have a knife stuck in your head." The robed man said as he prepared to throw his many knives.
"Take this for my answer." The young man said as he put the ring on and ignited it.
"Box open." The young man said as he inserted the flames and put it into the box.
"Kick his ass Bahamaut!" the young man said as the box opened to reveal a huge dragon covered in orange flames.
"Drago de ciele! How does he have that kind of a box weapon!" the robed man with a knife said.
"Bahamaut cambio forma." The young man said as his eyes were starting to change colors into orange.
The dragon roared once and then began to shrink into a sword. "Durandal sky version." The young man said.
"Ahhhh! Know I recognize that kid. He's from the KNIGHT organization and one of the highest ranking members. His eyes are proof of his nickname the sky KNIGHT. He wields the eyes of sky. We can't beat him he's too strong." The scythe man said as he began to retreat.
"He doesn't look so tough. Eat knives punk!" the robed man said as he threw his knives and they began to multiply towards him.
"Blade dance style: Wind!" the young man said as he slashed his sword down and huge amounts of wind came and blew all the knives away as if they were being deflected by the wind.
"Operation FD online." The young man said as his sword began to glow with more flames.
"Shit here it comes his finishing move!" the scythed man said as he began to escape.
"FD: Phoenix Inferno!" the man shouted as he disappeared in a flash and appeared behind the two men who were know caught into a huge amount of flames surrounding the area they were in.
The two robed men came down and were covered in smoke but were still alive despite amount of flames surrounding the two of them. The young man then went to take their rings and box weapons. "Umm, I know this is a little late but can I ask who you are?" Kosuke asked.
The young man just looked at him and Kosuke saw that his orange eyes were now greenish. "The name is Hayate. I am a member of the KNIGHT organization who serves the Vongola Familiga and the Giglio Nero familiga." He replied with a smile.
