Crimson Wings
Chapter 1 – Chance Encounters

\"Daisuke... Be back home by 4:23 and 26 seconds... You need to steal the Eye Of The Yukai statue at the museum tonight so we\'re having an early supper... don\'t be late!\" Emiko called to her son before he left for school... He was now 19 and a high school senior and would be graduating this year. She was so proud of him...

\"Yes mom... love you… Bye grandpa... bye Dad… bye With...\" he called before turning to the door, hefting his bag over his shoulder more securely and heading out towards the high school.

…

\"Daisuke-Kun!\" came a voice from behind him as he walked across the bridge. He smiled and turned to see Riku Harada riding her bike towards him. The two of them had been dating for quite a while now and she was usually the one that brought a smile to his face… the only one who brought a real smile to his face.

\"Morning Riku-san,\" he smiled to her with a genuine smile.

\"So... I heard from Saehara-kun that a certain Crimson Winged \'menace\' will be doing some thieving tonight... any truth in that?\" she asked with a smile. She was happy to be a part of the Niwa\'s secret life, even though she worried about him, but she knew it was something that had to be done...

Daisuke chuckled slightly, \"Now how would I know if it\'s true or not?\" he replied with a wink before they continued on to the school...

…

\"Mr. Walker! That thief needs to be stopped! Another museum was hit last night. I know you’re an excellent detective so I want you to get him PRONTO!\" Police Chief Saehara ordered one of his subordinates, “Don’t let me down Justin!”

The young officer, a man about 27 years of age with a slim but muscular build and short brown hair and eyes, saluted the chief and simply said, \"HAI!\"

…

School went bye uneventfully as usual and Daisuke was soon heading towards home, \"Six oclock... hnnn... sometimes I wonder if I\'ll ever get a break... I\'m exhausted... I just hope I don\'t mess up...\" he said with a slight yawn. He rarely showed his wiriness around others but alone that was about all he did... his work as Crimson Wings was hard on him and his body was aching for a good nights rest.

He sighed as he continued to walk, coming up to his house soon enough and trudging on in just in time for supper…

\"Eat up sweetie...\" Emiko smiled as she passed Daisuke his meal, \"You\'ve got a long night ahead... you need to keep up your strength.\"

\"Be careful tonight Daisuke...\" his grandfather said, \"seems they\'ve got someone new on the case... we don\'t want anything happening to you.\"

\"I\'ll be fine grandpa...\" the redhead said as he took a bite out of his meal…

\"Remember, if things get too tough... the artwork isn\'t worth your life Daisuke,\" his father said sternly. Unlike Dark, Daisuke was still very young and wasn\'t as skilled as the master thief. His family worried very much about him.

\"Hmm... I know... but I\'m not going to fail... I\'ll be fine and I\'ll bring the statue back with me,\" he said with a determined look. Ever since he’d lost dark, Daisuke had refused to let the family down… he refused to loose anyone else to the tainted art pieces.

…

It wasn\'t long before the redhead finished his meal and got dressed for his mission. He smiled and gave him mom a quick peck on the cheek before nodding to his little partner With and heading up to the roof and nodding to With as the little creature became his wings. He had his own wings but releasing them was painful so he avoided it as much as he could.

\"Lets go!\" he said to the wings as they attached themselves to his back, before taking to the air and heading towards the museum and their intended target...

…

Back at the museum, it was five o\'clock and the young detective, Justin Walker, was waiting for the arrival of the new Phantom Thief in town, standing in front of the Eye Of The Yukai statue, said to be Crimson Wing’s newest target. He stood with his gun at the ready. He knew that in one hour things would most likely get very interesting…

It was obvious to everyone that this was a new thief, what with the wing colour and all. Not to mention, this one didn’t seem a skilled as the previous one. Of course, that didn’t matter either way to Justin… he’d catch him none the less.

\"Nearly 6:00pm. From what I guess, he\'s prompt,\" He muttered to himself as he stood in front of the eye to safeguard it. He knew that many officers had tried to capture the notorious thief but he also knew, that he wasn’t going to let the fact that they’d failed, deter him from his mission… that thief was as good as jailed.

…

Daisuke smirked slightly as he glanced through the stain glass window of the museum. ‘Just one guard? This as going to be too easy’ the boy thought to himself before speaking, \"Ok With... you know what to do...\" Daisuke smirked as the little creature turned into a copy of himself, same clothing and all, including the hood that covered his hair and face from view...

\"Kyu...\" the clone murmured before Daisuke cut away a piece of the glass to let his copy in. With jumped into the room, behind Justin and glanced at the ‘guard’ before pulling out a feather from his pocket and shooting it at Justin to get his attention.

Justin spun around as the feather flew past him, his gun coming up instinctively as he looked the hooded individual over for a second before he finally asked, \"Ok, who are you?\"

\"Crimson Wing, Kyu!\" the ‘boy’ replied in a sickly sweet cutesy voice, causing his master above him to sweatdrop and shake his head slightly with a groan.

While With kept the ‘guard’ busy, Daisuke snuck through the same hole he’d created but stayed up near the ceiling, waiting for With to do his job, \'now lead him away With...\'

Justin narrowed his eyes as he cocked his gun and told the so-called ‘Crimson Wings’, \"Don\'t move! Or I will shoot! You are under arrest!\"

With wasn\'t sure what to do at this point. He\'d been told to lead this man away but he also knew that guns were dangerous. He cast a glance up to his partner to see what he should do and Daisuke made a motion for him to stay, so he did just that, looking back at the officer as Daisuke slowly began to make his way down using a rope in hopes of catching Justin off guard and saving his companion.

Seeing Daisuke with his peripheral vision, Justin turned around and shot at the rope, causing the second hooded figure to fall to the ground, knocking off his hood in the process, \"There you are! I won\'t let you get the eye you thief.\" It was then that he gasped as he noticed just how young this thief really was, \"What the...\"

Daisuke groaned slightly as he stood up, his copy quickly running to his side with a worried, \"Kyu?!\" Daisuke shook his head to With, giving the other a motion that said he was alright. He then glanced over to the guard, trying to figure out how to get out of this situation…

He frowned as he kept his gun on the boy, \"You gotta be kidding me! A kid is the ‘Master Thief’ with the Crimson Wings? This is nearly unbelievable. What in the world would a kid like you want with all those artworks?\"

Daisuke looked at him straight in the face and said calmly, \"That is none of your business...\" before suddenly jumping into the air and kicking the gun away and dashing towards the statue. With made a dash towards Justin at this time in order to keep him busy and away from his master...

Justin quickly jumped at With and kicked him upside the head causing the carbon copy to be thrown unceremoniously to the ground with a loud thump. He then made a grab for his gun and ran at Daisuke and shot him in the shoulder, eyes narrowed. \"One more step and I\'ll aim for your head.\"

Daisuke yelped in pain and fell to his knees for a moment. The pain was intense but he had to ignore it… he still had a mission to fulfill. He turned slowly towards Justin, making his way to his feet and couldn\'t help but glare at the man with the gun for a moment before his face went solemn, \"I\'m sorry... I failed...\" he whispered before biting his lip.

Would this guy even give them the chance to escape? He looked at the gun and doubted it. He glanced over at With and sighed, the little creature had reverted to his normal form and seemed to be unconscious… no help there it seemed. He sighed slightly before looking to the man with the gun and asking, “So what happens now?”

Justin smiled at the question after glancing over to the strange creature that had just changed from a boy to a rabbit of some sort. He wasn’t sure what the thing was but right now he was more concerned about the youth in front of him, \"First you’re going to tell me why a kid like you is stealing priceless works of art, and then you\'re going to go to jail. As for that... thing over there… it will go into police custody.\"

Daisuke shook his head slightly. He couldn\'t allow that to happen. They needed to get out of this so they could continue their work... they knew by now that people didn\'t believe in magic and the power of the artworks so he doubted telling the truth would help any... of course, it might get him put into a mental institution instead of jail… he sighed slightly before murmuring something he rarely murmured, \"Give me wings...\" a moment later the youth winced in pain, falling to his knees, stifling a yelp as the familiar pain engulfed his body.

Justin wasn’t sure what the boy was doing but something told him it wasn’t good and honestly, he didn\'t want the child\'s death on his consciousness. So he quickly ran at him and shoulder slammed him to the ground and onto his stomach then pulled the youth’s arms behind his back as he cuffed him, \"You aren\'t getting away. What the hell is the matter with you? Do you want to be killed?\"

The pain of his wings release receded as Daisuke\'s concentration wavered and the ‘transformation’ stopped. He growled and stared at the ground as Justin spoke, replying afterwards, \"I wont let you stop me from what I need to do... I wont let anyone else get hurt... I wont loose anyone else...\" he murmured quietly, the image of a certain purple eyed individual appearing before his minds eye.

Although he didn\'t let up, the boy’s words did surprise him, not to mention confused him completely, \"What do you mean, lose anyone else?\" He asked softly. Something suddenly didn’t feel right. There was something he was missing, something he needed to know, and this boy knew what it was.

\"Ky... Kyu? KYU!!!\" came the little voice of Dark\'s former familiar from it’s fallen position a ways off, \"With! NO! Let me go!\" Daisuke\'s shouted as his eyes went wide and he struggled to his feet and tried to turn to see what was wrong though he already had a fairly good idea of what it was, \"Yukai...\"

Justin turned his head to look at the rabbit like creature, confused about what he’d heard from the boy before he finally asked Daisuke in a slightly frantic voice as the creature seemed to panic and shake its head in fear, staring at the air above it, \"What the hell is wrong with that thing?!\"

With\'s eyes were wide as if something were about to attack him. When one looked closer, they realized that was exactly what seemed to be the case. Once ones eyes adjusted, they could begin to see the faint outline of a creature. It wasn\'t human... not even close in fact... it looked somewhat like what a goblin would look like with sickly green skin and long white hair and small horns and sharp claws attached to gangly arms... If one could see the creature\'s front, they would see a fanged mouth, grinning as it went in for the kill, two dull grey eyes and a third eye in the middle of it\'s forehead that was glowing a piercing red...

Justin got off of Daisuke, eyes wide, and began to fire on the goblin creature, hoping to kill the monster before it did any real harm.

Unfortunately for Justin, however, the bullets went right through the creature as if it wasn’t even there. They did get its attention though and the creature turned to him, glaring at him for a moment before beginning to walk towards him...

Daisuke was on his feet quickly, \"Don\'t look into it\'s third eye...\" he said calmly as he fished out a magical feather from his pocket and used it to cut the cuffs on his wrists...

Justin nodded but asked, \"How do you know about… this? Can you defeat him?\"

\"Of course I know... it\'s my job to know… it’s also my job to defeat it,\" he said as he narrowed his eyes, grabbing another feather from his pocket and sending the crimson feather flying at the creature.

The Yukai managed to jump into the air and avoid the feather but this gave With time to run to his master\'s side. Daisuke nodded to the little creature before nodding to him, \"Lets do it With!\"

The little creature Kyu\'ed before jumping into the air and becoming Daisuke\'s wings, quickly attaching himself to the redhead\'s back. Daisuke produced several more feathers as he took to the air, throwing the feathers as he flew...

Justin continued to try to plug the monster with bullets, though truth be known, he was amazed at the sight before him and confused. What was that thing and how did it get into the museum?

Daisuke finally managed to knock the creature off its feet with several good shots from his feathers and flew down, pulling out one final feather and throwing it at the creature’s third eye. The creature screeched and faded away... Daisuke sighed slightly before turning to the Eye Of The Yukai statue and walking over to it, casting a glance at Justin, \"sorry... but this is coming with me whether you like it or not...\"

Justin, suddenly feeling that the boy was doing the right thing somehow, asked him, \"Listen, at least tell me what the hell is going on. I mean, what the hell was that? You could have let it kill me… but you didn’t, so I want to know what it was and why you saved me.\"

\"That thing... was the Eye Of The Yukai statue... at least the darkness that the statue holds within it,\" he said calmly as he took the statue, after turning the security off.

He holstered his gun, realisation dawning on him, and continued to ask, \"So that\'s what you\'ve been stealing? Possessed artworks?\"

Daisuke sighed slightly, nodding, \"Hai...\" He was almost glad that the statue had come alive when it did... Now there was one other person who knew of the dangers of these artworks… not to mention if it hadn’t come alive, then he’d be going to jail and that thing would still be loose, plus who knows what would have happened to With.

Justin said, \"I can\'t ignore this new information but if I go back and report that I just let you go, I\'ll be fired for sure or worse, jailed. I\'ll tell you what. Knock me out and I\'ll say you escaped, but if these things are as dangerous as they seem, I want to help you out.\"

\"Hmm... Dark would have liked you,\" he said calmly before walking over behind the other, getting ready to knock him out, \"Are you sure about this?\"

Justin put a hand up to indicate he wasn’t ready yet before he got out a piece of paper and wrote down his phone number, \"Contact me later at this number. I want you to tell me what I need to do then.\"

\"Hmm... alright,\" he said calmly, \"This might hurt... alot...\" he said before hitting the other man hard at the back of the neck, instantly knocking him out, \"Ya... you\'re really gonna feel that when you get up... but it can\'t be helped. Hnn... I think we may have made a new alley With...\"

\"Kyu!\" the red wings on his back seemed to say before they flapped and he took to the air, heading back out through the hole in the ceiling window and away into the night sky… Destination… home.
