Disclaimer: I don't own DN Angel, and this goes for the rest of the story.

AN: I decided to start a new story. I might abandon or continue this, depending on the reviews. The game doesn't apply here, but I won't continue if I don't get at least two reviews.

Title: Fairytale Gone Wrong

Rating: K+ for mild violence

Pairings: DarkxKrad, SatDai


Purple eyes fluttered open, and Dark inwardly groaned. He touched his head tentatively. It hurt a lot, but it seemed to be more of a migraine than the effect of a physical blow. He turned over to his side, his purple hair messy and falling all over his face. He hit something warm on his right and time froze for about five seconds. Golden eyes blinked at him, unsure for a moment or two. Dark screamed and sat up with a jolt. He scrambled away from the golden haired hunter. The hunter sat up slowly and put a hand to his head.

"Quiet, you moron." The blond snapped in his silky voice. "My head hurts too much."

Dark knew his head certainly didn't. Instinct told him to get as far away from the blond as possible. Taking advantage of the situation, he attempted to call Wiz. When the familiar didn't come, he felt his stomach knot itself. "That can't be a good sign."

"Just shut up." Krad muttered, still trying to ignore his migraine unsuccessfully.

Dark frowned and concentrated. Finally, black wings burst from his back and he spread them out, displaying them. He was intent on leaving, before things escalated into a fight. But before that…He surveyed his surroundings. They were in a…village. A village square, to be more precise. It was amazing that nobody came running when Dark screamed. The village was quite…medieval of sorts. Suddenly, he saw somebody come out of his house. He flew up, expecting the angel to follow suit. No such thing. Krad was still too fazed by his migraine to notice that someone was coming. Dark frowned. Well, perhaps it was better for them to find Krad, that way the homicidal angel would be locked up somewhere he couldn't hurt anyone. But forget about the blond, he needed to find somebody who would help him! Where was he? Why was he here? His wings flapped furiously, heading towards a random direction he followed on a gut feeling. He paused over a well, and landed. Staring at the water inside the well, he touched the water. Daisuke appeared there. Shocked, he called to the reflection.

"Daisuke!"

Daisuke was talking with Satoshi on the phone when he thought he heard somebody call. He turned around, hoping to see Dark. No such luck. He sighed audibly.

"You're thinking about Dark again, aren't you? Niwa-kun, it's been a year already. Don't you think…"

"I know, I know. But I just…I miss him. You must be happy without Krad." Daisuke continued.

"No…Not really. It feels so…empty without him. So silent and everything." Satoshi replied after an awkward silence.

He heard it again, Dark's voice calling him. He looked around and took a deep breath. "Dark?"

"Really, Niwa-kun, your little delusion should stop. It's not healthy for you." Satoshi's voice came from the phone.

"Daisuke, help me! I don't know where I am, and I woke up next to Krad! In the middle of a medieval village's town square!" Dark yelled.

"What? How am I supposed to help you?"

"I don't know! Just find a damn way to get me out of here!"

"What about Krad?" Daisuke asked. "You said you woke up next to him."

"Oh yeah, I flew away when the townspeople came and I think I left him behind."

"WHAT?!"

"Dai….I'll go look for him if you want me to. Just get me - us - out of here!"

"All right, so where were you again?"

This time, there was no reply. Daisuke was now thoroughly confused.

"Niwa? Are you there?" Satoshi was still on the phone.

"Huh? Oh yeah…I thought I heard Dark. He said he was in a medieval village and that he woke up next to Krad. He had no idea how he got there, and he wants help." Daisuke replied. "I think my imagination…"

"He woke up where?" Satoshi's voice was tense.

"In a medieval village."

"Niwa…I don't think you heard your imagination. Could you come over? I have something I need to show you."

"Um… Okay."

Dark looked around nervously. Daisuke's reflection had disappeared when a spider fell into the water. He had taken the bug out and killed it, but the reflection was gone. All he could do now was to wait for another chance to talk with his former tamer. He looked around once more, afraid. He needed a place to stay…even if it was just for the night. A little boy approached him and touched his wings.

"Hello, are you an angel?" The little boy asked.

"Hmm? Yeah, I suppose so." Dark replied absent-mindedly.

"Did you know that they found the queen, just a while ago?" The little boy said excitedly. "Definitely, there would be a feast to celebrate it. Of course, her majesty might be sad to know that the king had disappeared. But maybe she knows where he is. I wonder what she looks like. They say she's really pretty." The little boy whispered. "My big brother plans on courting her if the King doesn't come back. Shh... It's a secret." The boy put a finger to his lips.

"Really? That's great." Dark replied, snapping out of his little world. Is this queen really as pretty as she's cracked up to be? It wouldn't hurt to…make friends with her. "Hey, could you tell me where I can stay for the night? I really don't have anywhere to go."

"I'm sure big brother won't mind if you stay with us for a while." The boy shrugged, and headed towards his home. He opened the door, with Dark behind him. An older version of him appeared. "Pete? Where have you been?" The older boy demanded.

"It's okay, I was just talking to this angel outside." Pete replied, smiling. He gestured at Dark. "He thinks it's great that you thought about courting the queen."

At this, the older boy grinned. "So you don't think it's a bit…vulgar?"

"No, of course not. But if she catches my eye…" Dark smirked.

The brothers had the same mahogany eyes, and the older brother's twinkled while the younger one's seemed confused.

"Yeah, well you're welcome to try. My name's Greg."

"Dark." The kaitou replied, running a hand through his hair.

"You're one of noble blood, aren't you? What happened?" Greg asked.

"Noble blood? I wish." Dark snorted. "What makes you think that?"

"Your hair…Commoners here only have black hair or brown hair. Since your hair is purple, you have to have noble blood. Are you a…illegitimate child?"

Dark was startled. "No! I don't have a trace of noble blood in me."

"Well, our mom went with the other women to see the queen and wish her well." Greg sighed, "So you're welcome to stay."

"Great!" Dark exclaimed.

Pete showed Dark to the guest room, where the Kaitou plopped and almost immediately fell asleep. The next morning, he woke up earlier than the rest, wondering what happened to Krad. All night, dreams of the blond being tortured kept him awake and disturbed. He cautiously walked outside, but was almost trampled by a man on a horse.

"Watch it!" The man on the horse yelled. Then, his eyes widened at the sight of Dark. He got down from the horse and got on his knees. "I'm so sorry, Kira-sama."

"My name is Dark." Dark replied, confused. "Who's this Kira?"

The man froze, shocked. "You…You suffer the same affliction as Rin-sama?"

"Who's Rin?" Dark was confused to the point of no return.

Greg came outside at this point, and saw the man kneeling to Dark. He looked at the knight, confused, then bowed a bit. The man glared at Greg.

"I may be a knight, but you're not showing respect for Kira-sama." The man spat.

At this, Greg visibly paled. He got down on his knees and grabbed onto Dark's foot. "FORGIVE ME! I beg you, forgive me." Greg sobbed. "I never meant to steal her majesty Rin from you!"

Dark frowned. "Who the hell is Rin? Also, I'm not Kira, I'm Dark."

"Hurry, we have to get him to the palace! Perhaps when they see each other again, they'll remember!" Greg and the knight placed Dark on the horse and lead it all the way to the palace. Dark was surprised at how quickly they got there. I shouldn't be here…But it wouldn't hurt to see who this Rin girl is. After all, if she's pretty, I could get used to playing the king.

In a minute or two, his clothes were changed into nice, black ones. Except these were better, Dark thought. He smiled at his black clothes and strolled with guards who were supposed to protect him towards the throne room, where Rin was supposed to be kept. As he entered, he heard an all-too familiar voice screaming protest after protest.

"I'M A GUY!! I WON'T WEAR THAT DRESS! THOSE WHITE CLOTHES I PICKED OUT WERE FINE!"

"But your majesty, perhaps you would like something more lady-like." A voice chided softly.

"FOR THE LAST TIME, I'M A GUY!"

"Yes, you are. But nevertheless, you are the queen."

"HOW CAN A MAN BE THE QUEEN?"

"You married the king."

"I DID NOT!!" Suddenly, the blond stopped shouting at her attendant and turned to Dark. Dark admired her, despite her resemblance to Krad. She really was pretty, he thought. Her hair was done in a stylish bun, and a white flower adorned the bun. She had very little make up, so that it was barely there. Dark didn't fail to notice that the eyes of all men were trained on her. They tried to hide it, sure, but it was quite obvious by the way they had to tear their gaze from her. But after a while, their gaze returned to her.

"Hello." Dark greeted warmly.

For a moment, everything was quiet as everybody watched the reunion of their supposed king and queen. What happened next nobody expected.

"You bastard! You left me there!!" The queen lunged at Dark, and Dark opened his arms to welcome her. He didn't know when or why the former king left her, but he must have been a nutcase. She tackled him and the wind got knocked out of Dark. Boy, she hits hard.

He sat up and saw that the queen's hair had gotten undone during her little stunt. The guards didn't meddle in quarrels between the king and queen. He golden hair now flowed freely behind her. He still thought she was pretty. She looked annoyed and ever so pissed.

"You don't recognize me, do you, you moron?" She asked.

"Of course I do. You're Rin, my wife, my gorgeous and hot queen." Dark said happily, although he was still trying to recover from her blow.

At this, the blond seemed flustered, but it disappeared and an ineffable look passed her face. "Get my clip, the one you took from me to do my hair in this bun." Rin called to her attendant.

"A…All right." The attendant picked something from a box and handed it over to the queen. She pulled her hair back and rubbed the make-up from her face. Dark's eyes widened in shock.

"KRAD?!"

"Well, they call each other weird nicknames, but at least they recognize each other." A guard whispered to another.

"Yes, I'm Krad, your gorgeous and hot queen." Krad mocked huffily.
