Daisuke listened to his father's story and couldn't believe that his dad was involved with those rings so many months ago. "Dark are you hearing all this?" Daisuke asked his other phantom thief self.

"Yeah and it's just crazy. Rings that can ignite flames and those flames used to open boxes to release weapons and mythical creatures and animals. Plus those flames have different effects like multiplication." Dark said as he hoped that was all the flames did.

"That definitely sounds like my cousin all right. So that's why you knew about the ring didn't you." Kuroi said.

"Out of all the rings all I saw were blue, purple, orange, green, and as of right now red. But no kind of flames I know of can do something like that not even magic." Kosuke said.

"You are correct that it is a flame but their a special category of flames. You managed to list most of them but you missed yellow and indigo. Those seven flames are known as the 7 flames of the sky." Kuroi explained.

"Seven flames of the sky? Sounds kinda lame." Dark thought as he listened on.

"They are also known as the objects that are found in the sky. Each color of the flames represents the aspects of the sky. The first is the orange flames which represents sky, in other words harmony over all. The red flames represents storm and it's job is to attack endlessly like a real storm does. The blue flames represent rain and it is to wash away the enemies the sky. The green flames represent lightning and it is to absorb the damage away from the sky like a lightning rod. The indigo flames represent mist and that its job is to create something from nothing in other words illusions and make it impossible to capture. The purple flames are known as the cloud and cannot be captured and as you saw has the propagation effect. The yellow flames represent the sun and its job is to illuminate the sky and holds the factor of activation, like instant regeneration." Kuroi explained reading the things off a piece of paper.

"There are seven of those flames and known as the flames of the sky." Kuroi finished explaining.

"Then that means there are seven of those rings. You currently have 2 of them right now. But then who were those robed men and why are they after the rings?" Daisuke asked.

"Getting right to the point partner and now we'll get the answers we need for the job." Dark thought.

"Those robed men are a ring cult known as Hades. Their goal is to collect the King's Ring and use them as a replacement for the tri-ni-sette policy." Kuroi said as she began to get up to leave.

"Anyways Daisuke Niwa come with me right now." Kuroi said as she got up and got close to the tiger and took out it's box.

"What why me?" Daisuke asked wondering why he was the only chosen to go.

"You can't leave a lady to walk home at night can you?" Kuroi said with a smirk as her tiger turned back into flames and went back into her box.

"All right then. Daisuke you should know how to get to the Harada house seeing as you fly by there to get back home as Dark that is." Emiko said as she began to off to the basement to put away the gauntlet while Kuroi and Daisuke left the house.

Daiki and Kosuke were the only ones left in the room. "Do you think Daisuke will be able to handle this job?" Daiki asked as he was afraid to lose his only grandson in getting these rings.

"I'm not too sure now. After seeing that one fight it makes me want to believe this is all a bad dream." Kosuke said as he knows what the perils his son will face in retrieving these rings.

"On another matter what was it you were doing with the hammer anyways?" Kosuke asked Daiki, who responded by sweat dropping.

Meanwhile Kuroi and Daisuke were walking to the Harada house. "Hey Kuroi-san I have a question. What is the tri-ni-sette policy?" Daisuke asked.

"The tri-ni-sette policy is a special group consisting of three things: 7 Vongola rings, 7 mare rings, and 7 arcobaleno pacifiers. According to legends it created this world and that if someone can gather all of them they can recreate the world as they see fit." Kuroi replied.

"Aren't those rings in danger then?" Daisuke asked.

"Those aren't in danger as they are guarded. The Vongola rings are guarded by the Vongola familigia, the Mare rings are protected by the Giglio Nero familigia, while the arcobaleno pacifiers are protected by the 7 most powerful babies known in the mafia world. In fact I met only two of the arcobaleno." Kuroi said when suddenly a musical noise can be heard and as they turned aside to see a cloaked person playing a flute.

"Wow what a beautiful melody." Daisuke said as he listened.

"Even though I'm not a fan of classical instruments like the one playing right now I have to admit it's so calming. Its so calming you can see the music notes flying around." Kuroi said as suddenly music notes were flying in the air.

"It feels like a manga right now seeing those musical notes." Daisuke said as he slowly began to feel slow.

"What the I feel like I'm slowing down right now Kuroi-san." Daisuke said to Kuroi as he found it harder to keep on walking.

"I don't want to say this but I think we're under attack right now." Kuroi said as she attempted to pull out her box and ring to ignite it.

Just when she ignited it and was about to insert it into the box the musical note suddenly attacked and Kuroi dodged it just barely but it left a small cut on her arm. "I can't let you do that. After all the Hades group wants you dead. But feel honored that you get to be taken down by me." The cloaked person said.

"Darn it. It was a trap and things can't get any worse as it is now." Kuroi said.

"Dark I think it's time for us to switch places right now." Daisuke said to his other self.

"I think so too. I was getting bored anyways." Dark said as he began to switch places with Daisuke.

"Hmmm, that's really interesting. Let's have some fun!" person said and then the musical notes began to attack at once.

"Those don't look so tough!" Dark said as he took them out one by one with his magic.

"Then I guess its time to reveal their true power!" the cloaked one said as the musical notes began to multiply.

"Dark be careful. Those notes are powered by cloud flames and they can multiply as many times as they want." Kuroi said as she began to take out a handgun and began shooting the musical notes.

"Not bad for now. But here comes some more!" the cloaked person said as the notes began to multiply faster.

"I don't think so!" a new voice said as the two fighting turned around and saw a person holding a blue flame and inserting into a box and began running.

"Cambio Forma!" said as the person landed right in the middle of the area but not before taking down half the musical notes.

"Gemini blades rain version!" as the person turned around and revealed the person to be none other than Hikari.

"Eh, Hikari what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be with Riku and Risa Harada?" Kuroi asked as she blasted more of the musical notes away.

"I got worried so I came back when you were taking too long." Hikari replied back as she slashed two more of the musical notes.

"Shouldn't you be protecting those two? Aren't they the ones in danger now since we're fighting an assassin here most like Hades sent someone to that place!" Dark said as he blasted two more notes away.

"It's true. Hades has sent in 3 members to go there and all of them are all specialists who will kill or destroy anything blocking their way." The assassin said.

Both girls stood their dumbfounded as they just realized that right now. "What is with those girls anyways? Daisuke you attract a lot of weird things including weird girls now." Dark said to his other partner.

"That I'm going to have to agree with Dark. But right now we need to beat this person or else the Harada's will be in danger." Daisuke said to his partner.

The fighting ensued longer and pretty soon even with the aid of Hikari, all of the group began to feel tired as their bodies were starting to lose their stamina. "That was fun for a while and now it's time to end this. Musical notes let's form a musical piece with their mutilated corpses!" the assassin said as she began to blow into her flute once more.

Hikari and Dark passed out due to fatigue and their injuries. Kuroi was still standing when she saw the musical notes flying above her now. "Is this the end?" Kuroi thought as she began to black out and thought she saw someone wearing a cloak over her.

"Hello are you okay?" her savior asked.

"I must be dreaming and this must be my final dream before I die." She thought as her savior began to take hold of her and then tossed her away near Dark and Hikari.

"Just stay there for a bit. It'll be over in about 5 minutes. So use this for now it'll be able to clean up any wounds due to the sun factor being in the bandages." The cloaked person said as he tossed a bunch of bandages.

"Well it's nice to meet you and now its time to say good bye and you can say hello down in the grave." the assassin said as the musical notes began to multiply once more and surrounded the person and flew straight towards him.

The attack resulted in a huge explosion and the cloak, now tattered flew away. "Gone like the wind." The assassin said laughing maniacally.

"Honestly that maniacal laughing reminds me of some people I just took down a while ago." The person said as he stood up completely unharmed.

Kuroi meanwhile was bandaging up Hikari and stood there mouth opened as she realized who the person was. "Hey Kuroi isn't that him?" she asked her friend who is now in complete shock.

"Who the hell are you to survive my attack like that?" the assassin said once more as the musical notes began to multiply.

"I'm Hayate and also the person who will defeat you as well." He said as he ignited his ring and inserted into an orange box.
