DNAngel: In a perfect world
Sequel to DNAngel: Sacred maiden, this story is much like the first, just must more serious and much more deep. This chapter is just the beginning of it, and this whole plot wont be the main story...
CHAPTER ONE: Nothing..
The dance, wasn't what you expected. It was a mesh of limbs and sweaty flesh, which, wasn't sexy in this case. Riku and I quickly escaped as the bell rang, telling us that school, or hell, was over once again. I grabbed my backpack and swung it over my shoulder, Riku was having problems putting on her black back pack due to she wasn't fully healed, so I helped her put it on.
"Thanks Dai-kun." She said before grabbing my hand and pulling me off towards the main gate.
"Hey! Riku! Rrrriiikkkuuu!"
"Ugh, what is it Risa!" Riku exclaimed looking toward her twin, who wast standing next to a limousine.
"C'mon! We're getting a ride! Niwa, you come too!"
"Hai!" I said.
"Hai..." Riku mumbled, letting go of my hand.
As soon as we got close to Risa, she gestured for us to go in. I slid through the black door and slid across the black leather to the far side of the seat. Riku and Risa soon followed.
The small rectangular window in front of me slid down, revealing an about mid twenties age man in a chauffer outfit.
"Barrington, take us home please." Risa said, acting like a queen. He huffed and I could have sworn he mumbled the word "slut" in the process of closing the small tinted window. The Rolls Royce soon sputtered it's way down the street, going at a devastating miles15 per hour.
I rested my elbow on the door and looked out the window, seeing the blurs of color pass us at the slow speed. Riku was just sitting there and Risa was listening to her ipod, butchering the lyrics to 'Gold digger'.
We stopped at a red light and the only thing I could hear was Riku's gentle humming as she looked straight ahead, then looked towards me and smiled. Grabbing my hand and looking at me in the eyes
She looked so pretty when she wa-
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I could feel myself falling...falling into nothingness, I was dissolving into nothing...
I felt nothing, smell nothing, hear nothing, do...anything...nothing but...stay here and...do...nothing...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"AAHHGGH!"
The shrill screech of my very own voice brought me out of my trance. A terrible pain shot into my arm and head, my vision was blurry and red, I could hardly make out my own hands as I slid my hand over the release button. I crashed to the roof, the blood spilling freely from a deep cut on my left eye, making a small puddle on the broken glass. I could feel myself losing cousciness once again, I ignored the gash that was on my forearm and slipped and slid my way towards the Harada sisters.
Between coughing up blood and shards of glass, I manage to mutter "Riku...Riku...hey...wake up." I pressed my cut hand onto her face, seeing she was messed up as well. She stirred and jolted uncomfortably at a strange angle.
There wasn't much time before I either passed out or bled to death, so I fumbled with the button before the sling released and I caught her just before she hit the roof.
I got on my stomach and actually managed to sling her onto my back before crawling through the sharp debree. When we got to the door, I put my hand out inches away, the surrounding area of vision around my hand became blurry, then it disapated as the door shot open with terrific force. I crawled through the door, my vision becoming black and red as blood spilled onto her shirt, I lied her down on the oil screeched asphalt before passing out under my lover.
I forgot all about Risa...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I never prayed to anyone before...
Partly because the fact I didn't know who I was praying to...
But disparate times called for disparate measures...
I prayed for something..anything...just to make things better..make them...
okay...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"FUCK! She's going into cardiac arrest!"
"Hurry! Get the morphine! This patient needs it right away!"
"Doctor! This patient's eyes are opening!"
"Stop that bleeding in the left arm! He's going to bleed to death if we don't stop it!"
Everything was far from peaceful...
I could feel a syringe jam into my arm vein and a thick liquid being injected into my circulatory system, I felt better, though my arm throbbed. I seemed to be moving at a quickening pace, on a table or something. I have no f-cking idea where I'm going...
I actually managed to look to the side, seeing Riku, hooks and tubes being hooked up into her as she coughed and sputtered for air.
I could hear her trying to say something to the doctor.
"Huh? Wha-? A Dasuke? What are you trying to say!"
I could read her lips, she was calling for me to help her...
"R...Riku..."
Once again, I blacked out..returning to nothing...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I could hear things, I could hear everything, I didn't know what was happening, but I couldn't move and everything was black. I couldn't feel anything but I could hear bleeps of machines all around me.
I could hear a door opening.
"Daisuke!"
I could hear Riku's voice as she repeated my name over and over it got louder and louder. She came right up to me and I could feel her arms grab my shoulders.
"Daisuke! Daisuke wake up! Please!
"Answer me if you can hear me!"
"Just give me a sign! Please!"
"I'm sorry ma'am, but..." an older man from another side sighed, "his body couldn't withstand the amount of damage that it has taken, and it seemed as though to escape the damage, his body shut down, reducing him into a coma..."
"Coma..."
"Yes, he could wake up at any second, any day, any month, any year...or" the man sighed again "...never."
I could tell Riku broke out into tears as I could feel her face fall onto my frail chest. I wanted to say something, but I was nothing...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was extremely boring to be in a coma, you can't do anything! All you see is black and those squiggles that you see when you close your eyes. Every day, Riku comes over into my hospital room and sits next to me, holding my hand and talking to me about her day, her voice was always cracking as she tried not to cry. She would tease me with light kisses, and one day, I summoned all the strength that I could mentally have, and I moved my finger, a quarter of an inch before it fell back down.
She saw it and called the doctor, he said it was probably just her imagination.
It's been three months since the incident...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I could see blurs...many blurs..several blurs...
I felt cold and alone...darkness filled the room as wind brushed through the window..
My eyes focused slightly, although not enough to see things perfectly...
"im.awake." I managed to whisper. I was so weak, I couldn't do anything. A red button for the nurse was on the side of the bed, and I slowly hauled my way towards the side and using the last bit of my strength, I applied pressure to the button. After about thirty seconds a nurse came in, wearing a white hospital gown. She looked inside and saw me sprawled out over the bed, my arm dangling freely and my blood red eyes locked onto the light that was illuminating through the small crack through the door...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I now regained some of my gross motor skills, I'm still not able to talk much, but I'm able to sit up slightly by myself, my legs feel numb.
I've been awake for about seven hours now. The nurse that I met was very kind to me, helping me with all my needs. I've lost about thirteen pounds and I still feel weak.
"Nurse Bermin..."
"Yes, Daisuke?"
"Is it alright...if I...call...some.one."
"Sure, of course, here." She said handing me the hospital phone. Through blurred vision I typed in Riku's number...
It rang several times before someone picked it up. "Hello, Harada residence, may I ask who is calling?" I could hear Riku's sweet voice once again.
I didn't know what to say...
"Hey..."
As soon as I said that one word, I could hear the phone drop to the floor and the sound of feet tripping and sliding across hard wood, a door opening, then slamming shut.
I pressed the off button and gave it back to the nurse.
"That was short." She said beaming as she put it back into the charger on the wall.
I laughed softly.
I lied my head back down on the bone white pillow, looking back up at the plaster ceiling while waiting for Riku to come see me.
The nurse went out for a second before coming back with a glass of water. "Here have this, you look thirsty."
She helped me sit up and I tried to hold the sealed top cup, but she held it for me and gestured to drink it out of the straw. I drank about half of it, realizing how thirsty that I actually was.
"Thank you." I whispered quietly.
A middle aged man came into the room, with a stero-typical stethoscope around his neck.
"Oh, hello, your finally awake! Well good, good, it's going to take you a few weeks to recover, but you should be fine." He said, making marks on the clipboard in front of me.
"I'm sorry, but, what happened? I pretty much blinked and it was like I was in that same blink for what seemed like hours. And when I opened my eyes, I was there, upside down in the limo, with several gashes on me, Risa, and Riku.
"Well, what happened was that a drunk driver slammed into the fender at around seventy miles an hour at an awkward angle, sending the vehicle you were in rolling about twice."
"What happened to Riku! And-And Risa!"
"Riku was fine, she wasn't hurt as bad as it looked, her sister, Risa, was hurt much worse, but, now her wounds are almost healed. I'm afraid, you were the worst.
"They say when the ambulance came, you were face down in the asphalt, with Riku on your back. What was really strange was that the car door was sent about thirty feet away from the car, as if something ripped it right off, and it wasn't from the crash.
"You are a very strange case, Mr. Niwa, any other person would not have been in the state of shock that you suffered from the car crash. The average person wouldn't have gone into a coma as fast as you did. When we pulled you into surgery, your eyes were open for about half a minute, only managing to say your girlfriend's name once..."
I blushed lightly.
He continued, "Something must have been very strange for you to go into that state of shock. We don't know what could've caused your case of exhaustion when you got here. You were really, just in a very long nap."
It must have been when I shot the door off, that probably caused me to go into the coma...
"Hey! Finally your awake! You don't know how BAD those IVs taste!"
Hey Dark! I never knew I'd be happy to hear Dark's voice...
"Well, I already called your parents, they should be here shortly. If you need any help, just call Nurse Bermin, she'll be happy to help."
The Nurse nodded, beaming at me.
"Well, I've got to get going, I have other patients to take care of. I'll check up on you later, Mr. Niwa."
And with that, the doctor left the room, along with the nurse.
I rested my head on the now molded pillow once again, fitting nicely into the groove I had created. In a few minutes, I'll be reunited with my family again...
And...
With Riku...

A/N: Hows that for an opening eh! This chapter only took about a day and a half (school :P), and I'm very happy with this chapter.
As I said before, this segment in the series is much more serious then Sacred Maiden and I worked really hard on trying to get the plot right .
This one is pretty much going to be about Daisuke throughout his high school life, before he finally graduates and must make 2 decisions, stay with the one he loves, or go onto college and leave everything behind...
This should around thirty or so chapters, so it's going to take about a year to complete. I thank everyone who reviewed, you don't know how happy I get when I see the alert of a new message on my MSN, I like to think my writing has become more mature than it has when I started writing fan-fiction, for when I started, I really didn't think about mistakes that I made in the first series, seeing many things that didn't make sense.
Please review and I'll review your stories, no matter if it's yaoi, yuri (pwnage), or straight D
