Chapter 2: Guardian


Arriving back at her palace, Riku summons the only person who can qualify for such an important job and it helps too that he’s the only person she absolutely trusts most.
“Dark!” She yells. Riku only has to wait a few minutes before a black- winged man comes flying in and lands in front of her. “ You bellowed.” Says a guy with short purple hair with long bangs draping the sides of his eyes, which were scrunched up in his annoyance. His purple eyebrows narrowed over eyes just a shade lighter than his hair. A narrow chin, a strong, straight nose, and sensual lips with the bottom lip just a little fuller than the top, finishes off the face of the young man that any woman would kill for a little attention from. “Thank you for coming, Dark.” Riku says, walking over to and sitting in her fabric-draped chair. Dark stays where he is, hands tucked into his crossed arms. “Like I had any choice.” “ What do you mean?” Riku asks innocently. “ Oh, don’t give me that. I’ve known you for too long, Riku. If I hadn’t answered on the first call, you would’ve kept yelling until I answered. I figured I’d save my eardrums that pleasantry.”
Riku shakes her head, giving a small laugh, smiling before turning serious. “ Dark, this is important. Please sit down.” Dark, noticing the change of tone in her voice, vanishes his wings and sits down on the chair next to Riku’s side, resting his elbows on the armrests and placing his clasped in his lap. He looks at her, waiting. Riku lets out a sigh and swallows her pride. “ Dark, it seems that you’ve won the bet.” Dark just stares at her, being silent. Which was out of character. Usually Dark would gloat over winning a bet, especially if he’d won one against Riku. It doesn’t happen often. This bet was made looong ago, It had also been made when Dark and Riku had finished a loud, and long fight. The bet was about whether or not Riku would ever loose herself to her righteous temper. “ Riku.. What did you do?” Riku shakes her head. “I’m so ashamed of myself.. I can’t say. It would compromise the privacy of the family and I won’t hurt them further.” Riku says forcefully. Dark sits up straight. “Holy hell, Riku! What have you done?! Is it really that bad?” “ I can’t say, I’m sorry. But.. I’d really like your help to make it up to them.” Dark looks at her crestfallen face, seeing her pain at her fury inspired actions. He sighs, throwing up his hands. “ Oh, alright. I don’t know what you did, but.. I’ll help yah out.” He rests his arms on his legs. “ What do you want me to do?” He says, resigned.
Riku smiles a little, thankful. “ I want you to watch over their son for me. Keep him safe.” His eyebrows arch in surprise. “ For how long?” “ For as long as he’s alive?” She says timidly. Dark clenches his teeth, suspecting something. “ How long will that take?” Riku presses her balled up hands under her chin as if trying to appear cute and harmless. “For about..80 to 90 years.” He narrows his eye as Riku averts hers. “ Are you trying to tell me that he’s a ..baby?” Riku nods her head, then flinches as Dark abruptly stands. “ You want me to baby-sit someone’s brat for 90 years!” “ Give or take a decade.” Riku says. “ I don’t have time for that! I have work to do! I’m not one of your servant’s, Riku!” He yells, his hand in fists at his side. “No.” Riku says calmly, Looking up at him. “ But you are the God of Deception and the Protector of all arts. Besides, You’re the only one I trust to do this for me, Brother dear, If not you then who?” Dark crumples up his face then it smoothes as he wearily accepts. “ Oh, alright! I’ll do it! But you owe me big time, Riku.” “ Oh! Thank you, Dark!” Riku says emphatically as she jumps up and kisses his cheek. “ Yeah, yeah, yeah.” Dark says, trying to pry off his sister. He succeeds after a minute. “So what’s the name of the boy.” He asks, watching as Riku sits back down.
“ His Name is Daisuke. Daisuke Niwa.” “ Daisuke, huh. Okay.” With that he unfurls his glorious wings, and flies off. All-the-while thinking…’Sisters, what a pain.”

The next morning, Emiko is surprised to find a necklace around her baby’s neck. Looking closely, she finds a note attached to it. Carefully, she tears it from the chain, and calls for her husband. “Kosuke!” He runs in, worried. “ What is it, Emiko? What’s Wrong?” “ I just found this on our son.” She hands him the note. “ And that’s not it. Look what’s around his neck.” He steps up to the crib and looks at his son’s happy face, his eye’s shining. Underneath his chin, on a gold chain is a real small, black feather. Surprised, he turns to the note to read aloud as Emiko picks up little Daisuke.
“ To the Niwa Family- Make sure Daisuke never takes this amulet off. Should he need me I shall know through this charm as it allows me to feel his emotions and alerts me to danger. Should this happen I will come immediately to help him. This started the minute I placed it around his neck. - Daisuke’s Guardian, D. “ They look towards the amulet again, astonished. Smiles break out in tandem as they feel relief and trust in the guardian that the Goddess, Riku gave to their son. They both make sure from that day on that Daisuke never takes off his amulet just as D asks of them.
