Okay, some information for you.

"speeeeech" is verbal talking

'speeeeech' is thinking

(stuff here) is explaining the situation/setting

This is continuing right off the end of the anime. I will have some points in here from the manga, just a warning/heads up. My writing may also sound EXTREMELY formal - Writing habits. (curse you, school!)

Okay peeps, I made a slight error earlier in writing this. I have now edited out, and have changed the passage of 'Come on... Dark's gone and she's already looking for a new boyfriend? Ayah...' to read as 'What's she doing? I thought she loves that pervert... something's up...'

Daisuke couldn't believe it. He held Riku in his arms, just standing, looking at the sunrise. He was finally free of Dark- though he would assuredly feel empty for some time. Dark was too much a part of him. He reminded himself to ask his dad if he could do anything about that. He also couldn't believe Riku's reaction. She knew for sure he was Dark, but she hadn't run off. That was a good sign.

"So... um..." Daisuke began. "You know... about... me and Dark?"

"Yeah," Riku replied. "I don't quite understand it. Why?"

"I'll have to explain it sometime. I think we need to get your sister away from Hiwatari-kun, she's getting eyes for him," Daisuke laughed and squeezed Riku once again. She replied with a giggle and a nod.

"Come on, Risa! Let's go!" Riku shouted to her sister. 'What's she doing? I thought she loves that pervert... something's up...'

"Coming!" came the response. Risa ran over to Riku and Daisuke (not without several backward glances at Satoshi) and asked quietly asked Riku, "Can I keep him? He's so cute!"

"Gah! I thought you're stuck on that pervert!" Riku exclaimed (just a little) loudly.

Satoshi glanced over with a half-smirk before pulling the jacket around his shoulders more.

"Hey, Niwa! I'm keeping the jacket. You owe it to me," Satoshi called over. Daisuke called an "Okay!" before Satoshi walked off the hill, going the other way. Risa was keeping up a constant chatter about Satoshi, quieter now.

"And his hair, and his manner, he's just so cute! And how he was so cool just taking Niwa-kun's jacket- no offense, Niwa-kun... KYAA!" Risa then proceeded to jump up and down, obviously caught on Satoshi. "Maybe we should go hiking so he can carry me up a hill," she said with a mischievous smile at Daisuke.

Daisuke promptly turned red, laughed nervously, and glanced at Riku, who was staring daggers at Risa. Risa was oblivious, staring off into space. 'Undoubtedly thinking of Hiwatari-kun...' Riku thought.
Daisuke surprised her by giving her a soft "Psst...". "Are you free to come over tonight? I want to explain the whole Dark thing as soon as I can," he continued. (whispering because Risa's right there, even though she's preoccupied)

Riku smiled, noticed him blushing a bit, still embarrassed to ask her out, even just to his house. She had already been there, so what was the big deal? 'Ah, poor Daisuke... Risa still gives him a hard time concentrating. I'll try to fix that,' Riku thought shrewdly. "Of course," she said aloud. "Do you want me for dinner?" she said, nudging Daisuke playfully, drawing out a tentative "Yes". Riku shined up at Daisuke, and the two of them locked eyes.

Daisuke broke the contact, tripping over a rock in the path, twisting, and falling behind Riku on his side, two feet from the start of the slope. "Ta ta ta... ouch..."

Riku smiled and pulled him to his feet... then was promptly shoved into empty space. Risa, who had fallen a bit behind, (still spaced out) had walked straight into Daisuke... who pushed into Riku. Her mind blanked out except for one thing: "DAISUKE!"

Daisuke, already gathering the situation, jumped off the top of the hill, aiming just underneath Riku and twisting in air. Riku fell straight into his outstretched arms... and kept falling. (If this wasn't a mid-air rescue, it would have worked...) On the plus side, Daisuke was there. Riku instinctively curled up into a tight ball in Daisuke's arms, which worked great for his plan. He wrapped himself around Riku just in time. He crashed into the slope and bounced, Riku unharmed, down the hill. No matter where they landed, Daisuke took the blows for Riku. 'This is kind of like the Rutile...' Daisuke thought. 'I love you, Dad!'

Eventually, they skidded to a stop at the bottom. Several holes were torn into Daisuke's pants and shirt, and scrapes covered his arms and legs. One nasty gash had opened above his left eyebrow- not good. There was also some sort of wetness on his left arm and leg. He fell out on his back, and Riku rolled away into a kneeling position. Tears were in her eyes.

"Daisuke, why do you always catch me?! Why..." Riku trailed off, just noticing his condition. She saw the gash on his forehead and gasped. "No... no, no no! DAISUKE!"

Daisuke looked up into Riku's face, positioned directly above his. "You're okay..." he managed, then passed out.

Risa was still at the top of the hill, dazed. She was no good right now. Riku concentrated, then noticed his arm and leg. Two long strips of bone were poking out of the skin of both his lower leg and forearm. Riku stared, speechless and motionless. Then something clicked in her brain - blood. Daisuke was bleeding. She screamed.

Riku needed to get him home. She remembered her bicycle but eliminated that possibility. She couldn't hold him and ride. She would have to run. "RISA! Meet me at home!" she screamed up the hill. Risa had, by this time, noticed Daisuke (probably when Riku screamed).

"Sorry, Daisuke!" she said as she picked him up in a fireman's carry- wincing at the sound of bones cracking in his chest. At least two ribs were cracked. She started running to his house.

Remember to give me some feedback on this. This is going to (hopefully) be a longer piece of work, so plan on more. Should I put some more of Satoshi and Risa in? YOU DECIDE!

I don't own D.N. Angel... if I did I would be happy. But unfortunately not.
