D. N. Angel Fan Fiction ❯ Wings Of Night ❯ Memories Past, Lost Love ( Chapter 1 )

 

 

Daisuke sighed as he walked through the front door.

 

 

“I'm home mom.”

 

 

`Well at least I get a break before I need to go out stealing tonight. That's a relief that'll give me a chance to take a nap.'

 

 

Daisuke sat his bag down and then sat himself down on the couch, before swinging his legs out on the couch to lie down.

 

 

“I'll just lie here for a little bit and then I'll get ready for tonight.”

 

 

Before Daisuke knew it he had fallen asleep, and slowly drifted off to a dreamless sleep. Emiko came out of the kitchen to greet Daisuke.

 

 

 

“Dai, sweetie dinner is almost ready.”

 

 

Emiko then noticed that Daisuke was asleep on the couch.

 

 

“Huh, he's asleep. I hope Dai isn't coming down with something. That would be just terrible.”

 

 

She then reached a hand out gently and touched his forehead.

 

 

“Oh good it doesn't seem like he has a fever, I was starting to worry. I think I'll just let him sleep for a bit and then give him his dinner.”

 

 

“Sweet dreams Dai sweetie heart.”

 

 

If only Daisuke's mother knew what was to come, then she would have thought twice before mentioning dreams out loud.

 

Twenty Minutes Later

 

 

Daisuke yawned as he sat up on the couch; he then stretched his arms up over his head.

 

 

“That nap was just what I needed I feel a whole lot better now.”

 

 

“Dai sweetie, are you awake? You're dinner is going to get cold, if you don't come and eat it soon.”

 

 

Daisuke smiled in the direction of the kitchen as he stood up from the couch.

 

 

“Right mom, I'm coming.”

After a peaceful dinner with his mother and grandfather, Daisuke headed up stairs to change his clothes and slip into one of Dark's thieving outfits. The collar of the outfit was a midnight blue that just blended in perfectly with the black of the outfit. The midnight blue trim, then ran down the center of the uniform, as well as a midnight blue band that encircled the biceps of the arm.

 

 

“Well here we go, I guess right Dark?”

 

“Yep I guess we are, you sure you're ready for this Daisuke?”

 

 

Daisuke was taken by surprise by the caring tone in Dark's voice.

 

 

“Yeah, I guess I am. Is there something else that's different about this time?”

 

 

“No not really just keeping you on your toes is all.”

 

 

Daisuke however wasn't sure he believed him.

 

 

`Why is it I get the feeling that there's something he's not telling me?'

 

 

 

A few minutes later, Dark was standing inside of Daisuke's bedroom.

 

 

“Looks like it's time to go get that swan. So let's go Daisuke.”

 

 

`Right, um…Dark you don't think we'll have any problems stealing the swan do you?'

 

 

Daisuke was take by surprise by Dark's response, earlier he had seemed worried about him and now.

 

 

“You're not scared now are you Daisuke?”

 

 

`No, no I'm not scared I was just wondering that's all.'

 

 

“Well there's no need for you to worry everything will be fine. I promise you Daisuke.”

 

 

However, there was no way for Dark to truly know what was going to happen, that night nor to protect Daisuke from it. It was just one of those things that would just have to happen first.

 

 

88888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888 88888888

 

 

Newscast:

 

“Police are waiting inside and around the perimeter of the cities central park, where the Pearl Swan of Gin Lake resides. Sources are still unsure of how exactly it is that Phantom Thief Dark, plans on stealing the pearl swan. However police are awaiting the time given in the warning letter, ten- thirty o' clock. Once again will the mysteries Thief make a get away or will he be caught at last?”

 

 

“I'm Stacey Hara reporting back to the station.”

 

End Newscast

 

 

Emiko glanced over at her father, as the newscast flashed across the screen. She herself was starting to wonder how Dark and her son were going to manage to snag this artifact.

 

 

“Dad, do you really think that Dark and Dai will be alright?”

 

 

Her father however, seemed to have more confidence then she did in them.

 

 

“Don't you worry about a thing Emiko, I'm sure Dark and Daisuke with be more then all right.”

 

 

Emiko sighed as she looked out the window out into the starry night.

 

 

“I just hope you right Dad.”

 

 

88888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888 8888888888

 

Daisuke couldn't help but voice some of his concerns as they headed toward the park.

 

 

`Hey Dark are you sure we'll be okay? I mean the swan we're supposed to steal is in a gazebo that sits on top of the lake in the center of the park.'

 

 

Dark on the other hand just smirked as he answered Daisuke's question.

 

 

“You worry too much Daisuke, don't worry I have it all planned out. Everything will be fine, we'll have the pearl swan before you know it; I promise you.”

 

 

However, there was no way for Dark to truly know what was going to happen within the next few minutes. He could only hope that everything would go off as well as it, almost always did. Yet there was no true way for him to know the answer to what he was seeking. The only thing he could do was wait things out and see what happened.

 

88888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888 888

 

“Meiko you can do it, we've only got a little farther to go.”

 

A young woman with honey colored eyes and long flowing fawn colored hair hurried on down the road.

 

“What if we don't make it, what if you miss your chance to be happy?”

 

There was a soft giggle before a woman's voice replied back.

 

“Having the chance to know you Meiko has always made me happy, as for giving up my chance to ensnare him. I'll just have to wait another century or so no big deal.”

 

The young woman named Meiko just shook her head.

 

“No we'll make it, I made a promise and I plan one keeping it. I may have free will in some things, but I don't when it comes to the love of the heart.”

 

The shadowed woman knew that Meiko was telling the truth. To give up on seeing him again after all of these years would be like giving up on Meiko, it was something she wasn't about to do.

 

`I wish there was more I could do to free us from this curse, but there isn't so for you I will find Dark Mousy even if it only means that I be come whole with you.

 

88888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888 88888888

 

“We're closing in on the park aren't we Dark.”

 

“You bet Daisuke, now would you just relax. Nothing is going to happen so stop being a worry wart.”

 

No matter how much Dark teased Daisuke, he to felt the same strange feeling. A strange pull from deep inside pulling him toward Gin Lake, just what was going on here.

`Don't you worry Daisuke I'll protect you I promise.'

 

“All right Daisuke here we go there's nothing to it. We've done things like this loads of time's”

 

Daisuke however didn't sound as confident as Dark was.

 

“Yeah, sure lot's of times, just nothing like this one.”

 

Dark however made this the perfect time not to pay any attention to Daisuke. Then all of a sudden as Dark and Daisuke get closer to Gin Lake a strange fog seemed to come and cover the whole area.

 

“Dark look at all this fog where did it all come from, I don't like the feeling I'm getting now. Something just doesn't feel right Dark what should we do?”

 

For once in a very long time, Dark had to agree with Daisuke. Something was defiantly going on around, he just wasn't sure if he wanted to find out what it was.

 

`That scent, it's the smell of lilac and honeysuckle. Why does it seem like I know it from some where?'

 

The fog drifted down over Dark and Daisuke, their body pulsed with a blue light as a warning shot through Dark.

 

“Daisuke hold on tight this might be a bumper ride tonight then I thought. This doesn't feel like some thing Satoshi would do.”

 

After landing on the ground, Dark look around his surroundings, Daisuke voice his worry as he and Dark took in the situation.

 

“Dark all these people are they?”

 

“No it looks like they're just sleeping, that's all.”

 

“Will they all be all right Dark?

 

Dark smiled at Daisuke's words, the kid really did put people before himself.

 

“Just relax Daisuke; all of them will be fine. In fact I'm sure as soon as this fog clears they will all awake up.”

 

Daisuke started to process what he had just heard Dark say, that's when the thought hit him.

 

“Hey Dark, this fog if it's what put all these people... doesn't it mean we're in danger too.”

 

That thought hadn't come to Dark yet, it could mean that he and Daisuke were in trouble.

 

“Daisuke, how are you feeling?”

 

“I'm all right, right now Dark. It's just if we're here too long.”

 

“No need to explain Daisuke I understand, the sooner we get the Pearl Swan the better.”

 

Dark started to run toward the temple that held the century old swan inside of it. He would grab the swan and then they would be out of here. Just as Dark wrapped his fingers around the swan, he felt the strange pulse again.

 

`There it is again what the heck is going on here?'

 

“Hey Daisuke you okay? Daisuke?”

 

There was no response at first, and then the muffled, pained voice of Daisuke was heard.

 

“Uh, Dark what's going on it hurts, so tired too what's wrong with me?”

 

“Are you in that much pain Daisuke? Don't worry we'll be out of here in no time.”

 

This time however, there was no response from Daisuke which only served to worry Dark more about his young tamer.

 

“Daisuke are you all right? Daisuke, answer me damn it. DAISUKE!”

 

There was a flash of bright blue light as Dark felt himself pass through something.

 

`I've loss commutation with Daisuke, this is not good. I can still feel his presence inside of me. He seems to be unconscious, well at least I won't be worrying about where he was taken too.'

 

“Well Daisuke at least you're asleep right now, so that just means it's me that has to get us out of here. That is as soon as I figure out where here is.”

 

88888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888 8888888888

 

“Is that him, the only we've been looking for, Dark Mousy?”

 

There was a belief moment of silence, before Meiko's question was answered.

 

“Yes Meiko that'shim Phantom Thief Dark Mousy, it's been over forty years since I've seen him but I could never for get his handsome face.”

 

Two violet strands of hair frame the face of a stunning young woman, dressed in tight black clothing. As her dark brown eyes took in Darks form from below. It was clear now that Dark was trying to resist the pull of the magic that was in the fog.

 

“Ebony, you and Dark were apart of an art work right? If this doesn't work then the two of us will die right.”

 

“Yes Meiko, both dark and I were a part of an art work just not the same art work. As for you're other question don't worry about it everything is going to be fine.”

 

`We were almost together once Dark, we are of the same molding. If he hadn't been so arrogant you and I could have been happy.'

 

Ebony glanced to her side as she spoke,

 

“All rightWen it's time to go.”

 

“KuuuuKou.”

 

A small grey rabbit with emerald colored eyes and long droopy ears, bounced up and down as it gave Ebony its answer. Running towards the end of the look out peak, Wen quickly transformed into a pair of dark violet wings.

 

“You ready Meiko it's time for us to go and catch us a work of art or two.”

 

She could only hope that all of this would work out in the end, she really hated to say this, but Dark was there only salvation.

 

`Dark I only wish I knew where you're heart lies now. Does Rika Harada still hold you heart completely even after all of these years?'

 

88888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888 8888888888

 

Dark winced for a moment as he did his best to fight again the magical element inside of the fog.

 

“Well…so much for me toughing this one out, the magic in this fog is starting to drain me of my energy.”

 

That's when the thought hit him, just why hadn't he that of this before.

 

`I didn't think the swan had this kind of power. That's because it doesn't something else is the cause of all this.'

 

With the pearl swan safe inside of his bag, Dark felt himself fall on one knee. His right hand dug into the ground, as he tried to pull himself back onto his feet. Sweat was slowly starting to bead across his forehead and the sides of his face.

 

“I can't allow myself to give in if I do then that will give whoever is doing this the upper hand.”

 

His body was starting to sag toward the ground and this time Dark showed no sign of stopping himself. Off in the distance Dark saw the silhouette of a young woman running towards him. In his now weak and vulnerable condition, Dark was able to whisper one name as the figure was mere inches away from him.

 

“Rika.”

 

88888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888 8888888888

 

“That was cruel Ebony I can't believe you made me do that.”

 

Ebony sighed from her place inside of Meiko. Meiko did have a point she had given her control again without warning, but she had to know and now she did. Rika Harada still tore at the sides of his Dark.

 

“I said that I was sorry Meiko, when I saw him up close I just panicked. I was afraid that if he saw me, forget it.”

 

After a few moments Ebony spoke to Meiko again.

 

“So how is he?”

 

Meiko smiled at the caring ness that was inside of Ebony's question.

 

“He's fine Ebony, we'd better get moving if we want to get them out of here, before he wakes up.”

 

Meiko soon found herself drawn toward Dark; she brought a slim finger up to brush stray strands of hair away from his face. Looking down at him now, Meiko realized just how much of a fallen angel Dark looked like. A sharp pain shot through Meiko's chest causing her to winced and cry out as she held her chest.

 

“MEIKO, Meiko are you alright what happened?”

 

“Nothing happened; I'm fine really it's probably from me getting all worked up.”

 

`It's our curse the more time that goes by the more pain you're in. Please forgive me Dark, but I will not let Meiko die even if it means I have to trick you into loving her and me again.'

 

In a blink of an eye Ebony's long violet locks where blowing gently in the wind as she look down at Dark. She then carefully lifted him up into her arms; her chocolate orbs then glanced down at Wen.

 

“With, is all yours Wen.”

 

Wen simply nodded as she hopped up next too With. Ebony watched as Wen did her best to carry With the two really did look cute together.

 

“This is going to be a long walk home. That is if you won't mind giving us a hand a little bit later.”

 

“Kuku.”

 

Ebony smiled at Wen for a moment, but that smile was bittersweet. If none of this worked, then she and Meiko wouldn't exist any longer. Who would watch out for Wen then, it was just something that Ebony didn't want to think about right now.

 

Come on Wen, it's time we went home.”

I let darkness take me away

Until I'm found by that blinding light

I am darkness I belong in the dark

Then why does this wondrous light follow me?

 

Dark winced as he felt his body connected with something hard. He slowly opened his violet orbs to take in his surroundings. It was a sea of blue light that seemed to stretch for miles.

 

“Just where am I? What is this place? Daisuke are you alright, Daisuke answer me.”

 

The only thing that answered him back was the sound of his own voice. The memory of what had happened to him slowly started to come back. His dark amethyst orbs widened when he remembered the Pearl Swan, he and Daisuke had been in the middle of stealing. Quickly grabbing the bag off his shoulder, Dark sighs in relief seeing that the swan is still where he had placed it.

 

“Well whoever knocked us out didn't take the swan, so what was it they were after?”

 

`Daisuke.'

 

Finding a purpose within myself

Never seeing that I'm whole already

Always seeking answers

Never really looking for the truth

 

Looking out across the wide sea of blue, Dark catches sight of something floating out in the sea. Realizing what it is, Dark hurries towards it the sound of water splashing from under his feet is heard as he hurries on his way.

 

“Daisuke is that you? Daisuke.”

 

His eyes widen as he likes down at Daisuke's pale face. His clothes are soaked with water, how though is something that Dark had yet to figure out. They were surrounded by a sea of nothingness so where did the water come from. As Dark lifted Daisuke into his arms clear water cascaded away from Daisuke.

 

“Just what the heck is going on here? You hang in there Daisuke I've got'cha now.”

 

Where's my shining light, my ray of hope

The tides going out and I'm sailing with it

Some one come and led me back home

To where I belong

 

A coughing sound brought Dark's eyes back down to Daisuke.

 

“-ark, is that you? Boy am I -ald to see you.”

 

“Hey take it easy there Daisuke; your spirit has been under a lot of stress.”

 

“Now that I know you're safe, let's find a way out of here.”

 

Dark surveyed the area around them, and did like what he saw, which was absolutely nothing. Before Dark had walked too far with Daisuke, Daisuke screamed out a warning.

 

“Look out Dark.”

 

A swirling blue and white wave came crashing down toward them.

 

“Well this was a little unexpected, hang on tight to me Daisuke.”

 

“How Dark we'll both drown.”

 

“Just hang on and hold your breath just in case. This dimension we're in is where unfinished works of art go. How we got here is a whole other mystery.”

 

Dark then noticed a figure on dark wings coming in closer to them.

 

“Dark, hurry take my hand.”

 

“Ebony, but how?”

 

“There's not a lot of time to explain, just take my hand please Dark.”

 

Dark's hand reached out towards hers just as the wave came crashing down on them.
