Hello, My Readers
Hello, My Readers. How are you all doing? I hope you are all doing well. Well any way we have a few things to discuss before the chapter begins. One is the answer to last chapter's anime allusion. The line where Daisuke says "This is my justice!" which comes from an anime known as the Law of Ueki. It is a good anime and I do recommend it. Please review this story. Through reviews I know where I can improve and where I am good so please review. By the way I do not own DN Angel but who cares so onto the chapter…
The First Battle
As Daisuke flew through the air carrying Satoshi he started to think. Was that man back there really Satoshi's father? Could Satoshi still be trusted? Would Satoshi be able to fight his own father? As Daisuke was thinking this the rain continued to fall. His wings grew heavy as if made of leadA gust of wind came out of nowhere and nearly knocked Daisuke out of the sky. Daisuke recovered just in time to almost be hit by a thunderbolt. The bolt was so close that the thunder crash nearly deafened Daisuke. Dark called out, "Daisuke, the storms to rough. Land now or we all might die!" Daisuke took his partner's advice and landed in an alley which branched off from the market. The alley was a dead end, filled with shadows, smelled so bad you could literally taste it.
As Daisuke landed, he dropped Satoshi who fell to the ground in a heap. Towa-chan wiggled out of his grasp as Satoshi slowly sat up, hung his head, and started to cry softly. Daisuke, who was busy trying to dry his fur, stopped in amazement. He had never seen Satoshi cry before let alone show any type of sadness. Daisuke walked over to Satoshi and asked, "Are you okay?'
"Ya, I'm fine."
"You don't sound it."
"I'm fine," replied Satoshi with a little anger in his voice.
Daisuke decided to give Satoshi some time to work things out. Satoshi definitely deserved it. Who could stand up against their own father and say that I will live the life I want to live. Daisuke was so impressed by his friend's bravado that he let a smile sneak past his lips as he leaned against the alley's wall. Satoshi noticed this smile and asked calmly, "What are you smiling about?"
"I'm just thinking about what you did back there," replied Daisuke. "I mean to look your father in the eyes and say…"
"That man is not my father," interrupted Satoshi.
"What? You said he was," answered a confused Daisuke. There was a pause between our two heroes before Satoshi finally answered.
"First off that man was my step-father Kei Hiwatari. But, after seeing him today. I have no father." The rain poured as Daisuke analyzed Satoshi's response. Satoshi must have seen something that he had not. Kei had literally gone insane due to the virus, but was that enough reason to disown your family, even if it is just an adopted father? Daisuke was still thinking it over when Satoshi continued, "During that debate on the hill, I finally realized something. Even if I save my father from the virus I would have to go back to chasing after you and Dark. After experiencing these few days together, I know I never want to put myself in that position again. I would rather live alone and be your friend than be wealthy and have to fight you."
Daisuke was beyond touched by Satoshi's statement. Daisuke knew Satoshi was serious with every word he had said and thought, "This is what true friendship is." "So after we defeat this virus," asked Daisuke as he helped his friend up, "What do you think you will do?"
Satoshi chuckled slightly and answered, "Well, I'll think about that when we come to that." Just as he said that Towa-chan came up and started running her body against Satoshi's leg as if trying to communicate her pride for Satoshi. Both boys laughed.
As our two heroes finished their laugh they heard a peculiar sound. Both Daisuke and Satoshi hid and listened intently. The sound was that of clanking, but it wasn't just random. It had a meter and there was more than one. Suddenly, a large column of guards, similar to those that had accompanied Kei, went trotting past into the main plaza. As the boys stood there in silence a rather large being stood up on a box in the main plaza across from where the boys were hiding. The being ripped his helmet off to reveal he was a cat humanoid about Kei's size. The cat/human had brown fur which was matted down due to water and sweat. The nose on the end of the captain's muzzle twitched back and forth as if it were looking for something. Unable to smell what he wanted he snorted in anger, threw down his helmet, and yelled at the now silent troops, "Damn, the rain. Find those boys they couldn't have gone far. Find them in the name of our King, Vormare!" With that the company of troops let out three roars for victory, split into groups, and started to search the city.
The boys looked at each other and knew they were in trouble. As a small group of troops marched towards the alley way, the boys knew they would be seen. Daisuke whispered, "What are we going to do? If they find us we're dead."
Dark spoke up, "Daisuke let me take over I should be able to fight these guys." With that Daisuke closed his eyes, thought of Risa and Riku, and transformed into Dark. Dark appeared in Daisuke's school uniform. Since Daisuke had taken off his shoes and socks during the school day; Dark was now barefoot and little unhappy as his foot met with some slime on the alley floor. Dark's newest cat feature was the thick coat of fur that covered his back and shoulders. Dark turned to Satoshi to see a funny sight. A whiskered Krad was now dressed in Satoshi's two sizes to small school uniform. Krad's wings had ripped Satoshi's shirt to shreds revealing Krad's fur covered chest. Dark tried to hold back a laugh, but failed miserably. In response Krad shot Dark a "shut it now or you die" glare that silenced Dark immediately.
As the guards finally made it to the alley they were knocked back by one of Krad's shockwaves. This display of power caused the captain, who was still on his podium; shout to his men, "Men! We have found the enemy! Attack and take victory in the name of Vormare!" At this the mass of troops charged towards Krad and Dark who were now out in the open. Dark held out a feather and called out, "Wing Blade." As the feather extended into a long sword, Dark charged forward and attacked the on coming troops. As Dark skillfully met blade for blade in close combat, Krad was busy preparing for an aerial attack. Krad asked, "Satoshi are you ready for this."
Satoshi braced himself and said, "Yes, Fire away."
Krad flew into the sky and yelled down at Dark, "Dark get out of there!" Dark took Krad's hint and preformed a series of back flips to escape the mass of soldiers. As soon as Dark was clear Krad yelled, "Feather storm." Krad's wings glowed with a glorious light as he let loose a rain of white feathers on the mass of guards. The feathers knocked the soldiers down and created a magical barrier over them preventing them from getting up.
As Dark and Krad took satisfaction in the victory the Captain started to laugh. "Gentlemen," called the captain smugly, "Do you really think that was all of my men? The captain reached into his pocket, pulled out a whistle, and blew hard on it. The noise was so loud Dark and Krad had to cover their ears to make sure they didn't go deaf. As the guys recovered they saw to there amazement another forty guards surrounding them. "Men there is the enemy," yelled the captain as he pointed at Dark and Krad, "Destroy them for your King!" The soldiers quickly drew their swords and attacked.
Dark jumped into the air, preformed a barrel roll/ back flip and landed ten feet outside the ring of soldiers. Krad just flew out of the ring, but didn't get far because his wings were heavy with rain. Krad landed next to Dark and some how withdrew his wings into his body. The soldiers had turned and were now charging the duo. Dark yelled as he started to hack at the soldiers, "Twenty for each of us, loser does the dishes tonight?"
Krad suddenly summoned a wing blade of his own and yelled back, "Deal!" Krad charged forward and demolished a small band of soldiers. Several times through out the short battle Dark would save Krad only to be saved by Krad a few seconds later. Dark used a more savage sword style while Krad fought like a fencer. Before long the two warriors had defeated the reinforcements and were now ready to face the captain.
The captain slowly descended from his box and turned to his challengers. He laughed as he yelled, "Do you really think I am scared of you two pretty boys? Hahahaha you two don't have a chance against me. I am Captain in Vormare's army. I am a superior servant. I am a servant of the all powerful-"
"Shut your trap cat boy!" yelled both Dark and Krad who were feed up with the captain's arrogance. Needless to say this thoroughly ticked off the captain who quickly drew his sword and charged at Dark. Dark blocked the downward swing and tried to counter with a thrust. The captain parried and attacked with an upward slash. Dark was able to block the sword but wasn't able to avoid the energy beam that the captain fired at him. Dark flew backwards and landed on the ground in confusion.
Krad stepped up and attacked the captain with a flurry of sword jabs. The captain somehow evaded each thrust and countered with a swift side swipe. Krad was able to block the blade but not the force of the impact which flung Krad to the ground like a rag doll. The captain had apparently not been boasting when he said he was above the grunts. Krad stood up and charged again only to be met with an out stretched paw and an energy beam which sent him flying onto Dark. As the two angels stood up they knew that separate efforts weren't going to work on this guy. The Captain sauntered over and chuckled, "You pathetic losers! When I kill you Lord Vormare will make me a king!"
Dark angrily countered, "Oh just shut up!"
Krad and Dark then held up their hands and yelled, "Angelic Blast!" Both of their hands glowed brightly (Dark's glowed with a black aura, Krad with a white) as they released their own energy beams at the captain. The beams hit the captain and knocked him back several feet into a near by wall. When the smoke cleared both Krad and Dark were glad to see that the captain was unconscious.
As the duo looked around them to see if all the guards were okay Dark turned to Krad and, "So, I guess we tie."
"Yep."
"Then who's going to do the dishes?"
Krad laughed as he replied, "We'll let the boys figure that out." Just then the storm finally let up and the sun shown through. Dark called With, Krad summoned his wings, and both of them flew off for home.
Sorry for the long chapter but I didn't know where I could cut it without doing damage to the story. Stay tuned and please review. Happy Easter.
