Dark's ego gets downsized

Over the next few weeks, things started to calm down again. That is, until Dark sent his usual advance warning note out. This time, Satoshi decided to use his fear of his sister against him. This was going to be fun.

"So you want me to grab him by the ear and drag him out? What is the point in that?"

"I wanted his ego to go down. And by down, I mean humiliate him on live TV!"

"His ego ran out of control while I was stuck in the ring didn't it?"

You have no idea how much it has grown. Krad answered.

"Alright, I'll go along with your evil scheme. But only if he is allowed to escape."

"Why would you let him escape?" asked Satoshi.

"Do you really want to know, or would you rather wait until after this is over?"


I don't even want to know what she has in store for Dark…

Satoshi agreed with Krad wholeheartedly. Why spoil the fun? But one thing bothered him.

"Luna, why are your wings gray instead of black like Dark's?"

Your turn to explain Tras, he needs to know the truth.

Thanks a lot…she replied sarcastically.

"Because I'm a Niri. Normally she would have black wings, unless she is in the body of both clans," answered Tras,

That explains a lot.

What do you mean explains a lot?!


You never told him of the third clan did you Krad?

"Third clan? What does she mean 'third clan'?"

Ask Tras what the last half of her name is. That should answer your question.

"Tras, what is the second half of your name?" Satoshi asked, confused.

"I don't have a second half. I'm a member of the Niri. Most simply call us the third clan."

"But how'd you get the name Niri? Unless you're half…?"

"Half Niwa, half Hikari. But the bloodline of the Hikari only came into our family once. We aren't related."

I'm glad we aren't related by blood. That would have been unpleasant to deal with.

What do you mean? Why would her family bloodline matter? Unless…

Satoshi cut him off right there. He didn't want to be harassed by Krad if he could help it. Tras looked at him confused. Why did Satoshi care about her family descent?

"Shall we get started Tras?"


Dark arrived early, and went straight for the artwork he was sent to steal. Too bad he didn't notice Tras hiding. When he heard the sound of wings, he panicked.

'Please be Krad, please be Krad, please be… oh no. NOT HER!'

'Dark, what's going on?' asked Daisuke.

"We met again brother. And by the way, Krad heard that last bit."

"What do you want Luna? How did you come out without the ring?"

"The ring only held my body in stasis you baka. When Tras set me free, she let my powers out as well."

Dark proceeded to curse his bad luck. If Luna had a dollar for every number of swear words he was using, she would be a millionaire in seconds. She walked up to him, and grabbed him by the ear as if he were a misbehaving child. He was horrified that she dragged him out in front of the cameras with an annoyed look on her face, which clearly said "You're in trouble now!"

His reputation as a master escape artist was down the drain. He wasn't surprised when she let him go free with the art piece. His sister had a sadistic side and he was sure that she was proud of that fact.


The next day, Dark told Daisuke to skip school. When Emiko heard that it was Dark's idea and not his, she called the school telling them that he had a fever. It was a wise decision on his part. He knew that what had happened would be all over the school and he couldn't deal with it. He had to let it die down a bit before he showed his face again.

"Why did I have to get the evil half-sister and not Krad?!" he grumbled.
