Chapter 27: Wings
It was pitch black outside as the clouds covered the tarry night sky. The group of teens ran though the forest with ease. They decided it would be too easy to spot them from the air if they flew at the current time. The small group stopped after about a three hour constant run. Hikari and Rokuro leaned against a tree to catch their breaths as Daisuke and Hiroshi waited.
"Do you think we could fly from here we're plenty ways away from the house." Rokuro asked and his little demon cat named Kyo hopped off his shoulder and transformed.
"Fine we'll fly from here." Hiro answered "As much as I'd rather not it will get us to the mountains faster." He sighed.
"I was getting a little tired of running myself." Daisuke laughed letting his wings spread once again. "So who am I carrying?" The blue haired man asked.
"You're not carrying anyone Daisuke." Hiroshi told him.
"Really because Kyo can only carry two at a time which means I would have to carry someone." He slipped over to Hikari. "Hikari is light I can carry her without a problem." He smiled putting an arm around her shoulders. "Well no offence Hiro but you're much heavier then she is and would only slow me down so it would be harder to keep up with Kyo."
"GET YOUR HANDS OFF OF HER!" Rokuro and Hiroshi shouted in unison.
He lifted his arm off of Hikari "Then what do you suppose we do?" He asked.
Then a smirk spread across Daisuke's face and he lifted up a feather. "Unless Hiro that you planed on flying yourself again." He walked behind Hikari and wrapped his arms around her "Of course Hikari I think that you would look much prettier with wings of your own instead of riding on a demon cat." He said and Hikari's face went bright red.
"I-I umm…" She stuttered 'why is my heart pounding when he acts like this?' she thought.
"Or I could just as easily carry you..." He whispered in her ear "My princess."
The silver haired man growled at the blue haired man to get off of her.
"No you're using the spell on me and Hikari is riding with Rokuro." Hiroshi responded holding back the urge to knock Daisuke out right then and there.
Daisuke sighed and stood up straight. "Fine have it your way Hiro." He answered quickly throwing the feather at the silver haired man and the feather an inch away from hitting him in the heart and absorbing into Hiroshi's body.
Hiro stumbled back because of the impact of the feather. He felt like his body was burning. Daisuke jumped over to him and placed a hand on Hiroshi's forehead and forced more of his magic into his old friend. After holding the same position for a minute Daisuke released his hand from Hiro's forehead and caught him before he could fall to his knees. Instantaneously the silver haired man grabbed the blue haired man's shirt as all the pain went racing to between his shoulder blades. Silver wings burst through his skin and ripped through his shirt. His grip on Daisuke's shirt loosened and his arm fell to his side. Daisuke helped him stand back up all the way and then backed off to let him stand on his own.
"Hiro are you alright?" Hikari questioned running over to him and she touched the wings and they twitched.
"I'm fine." He said still a bit out of breath from gaining wings. He brought the wings up off the ground noticing all the new muscles that were in his back controlling the wings. He spread them wide across and the wing span completely stretched out was about 13 feet from tip to tip.
Hikari ran her finger threw the feathers and got to the long bone that ran through the top of the wings. The slightest weight on that bone made Hiroshi wince in pain.
"Hikari you might not want to touch his wings at the moment they're still new to him and the slightest pressure on those bones hurt him." Daisuke mentioned.
Hikari stepped back from her older brother "Sorry." She muttered looking down at the ground.
Hiro grabbed her wrist and brought her back to him. "It's fine don't worry about it. You were just curious." He whispered. "I didn't want you to deal with any pain from getting wings is why I decided to take them." He explained.
Hikari hugged him. "I'm just glad you're okay I don't want to lose my older brother after just getting him back." She said.
"Hey come on now Hikari don't cry I wasn't going to die just because of a spell." He told her.
"I wasn't going to cry." She replied pushing away from him and crossing her arms.
"Hikari you're so cute." Daisuke laughed hugging her from behind.
"Well let's get going you three." Rokuro said.
Daisuke lifted Hikari up onto Kyo's back and handed her the bag.
"Go ahead Roukro we'll catch up in a few seconds." Daisuke mentioned.
Rokuro and Hikari took off through the tree tops and into the sky.
"come on." Daisuke said jumping off the ground and beating his powerful wings to take him up through the trees and Hiro was close behind him.
It took just a few seconds to catch up with Hikari and Rokuro.
"This isn't going to last for just an hour is it?" Hiroshi questioned.
"I poured so much magic into you that it will last for a while. 48 hours for the least amount of time." He answered.
They flew in silence for a good 4 hours.
"Let's take a break you guys." Daisuke ordered.
"why?" Hiroshi asked with a confused look on his face.
"Because if you go much longer on your wings today your back is going to be sore. They're bran new to your body so you're better off not pushing it today." Dai explained.
"It's fine with us if you want to stop for the rest of the night." Rokuro answered.
They found a cave and set down there. Because it's not such a good idea to touch back down in the forest if they over sleep. Daisuke put a barrier up over the opening of the cave so they couldn't be spotted. Rokuro leaned up against one of the walls and Kyo curled up on his lap then they fell asleep. Hiroshi didn't realize how tired he actually was until he laid down and he was out one of his wings fell over top of him like a blanket as the other rested along his backside. Hikari sat down against the opposite wall from Rokuro and Daisuke sat down next to her.
"You can go to sleep you know." Daisuke mentioned.
"I'm alright I wouldn't be able to get a lot of sleep anyways." She sighed pulling her knees up to her chest.
"Oh I see." He said looking up at the ceiling of the cave. "I don't think that Hiroshi trusts me very much."
"No I think it's more of he just think it's because of you going to Naraku is why he kind of keeps his distance away from you." Hikari answered. "I don't know why I'm not like that towards you though."
Daisuke placed an arm around her and pulled her closer to him. "I-I have something to tell you." He whispered.
"What is it?" She asked sounding a bit drowsy.
He looked down at the floor "I really don't know how to put it." He said.
"It's fine…just go ahead and tell me." She said using his leg closest to her as a pillow.
He looked over at her and she was asleep. Daisuke ran his fingers through her hair a few times. Hikari shifted so her front was facing the ceiling. The blue haired demon leaned down over her and kissed her soft lips. Hikari opened her eyes to the light touch on her lips and her eyes opened wide when she saw who it was.
She quickly sat up and put a hand over her mouth. "Zen?" She asked shocked.
He smiled and moved her hand away and kissed her again. "Hikari, you'll understand how the two of us are connected." He said and kissed her deeply one last time. Hikari wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed back. When they parted Daisuke was staring at her shocked that she kissed him back.
Hikari's face turned brick red. "I'm sorry I must be tired I thought I saw Zen for a minute there." She laughed sheepishly.
Daisuke laughed and pulled her back in kissing her again. "You're adorable when you blush." He whispered. "Honestly it would have been nice to give you the wings but then again I don't think that your brother would have liked how I would have given you some of my magic." Daisuke stated.
"Daisuke are we ever going to find Zen's real body?" She asked.
"I'm not sure Hikari but we'll keep looking." He replied. 'I'm right here Hikari why can't you see that.' "Why don't you try to get some sleep I promise I won't wake you again." Dai laughed lightly.
Hikari laid back down on the ground and fell asleep. Daisuke laid down next to her and rested on of his wings over her and himself and fell asleep soon after.
