Ok so this is a D N Angel Version of Romeo and Juliet. Some little sidenotes here, The Hikari family and Niwa family will take place of the Capulet and Montegue family. Daisuke is Romeo and Riku is Juliet. Both Risa and Riku are part of the Hikari family now and Satoshi is a Hiwatari and not part of the Hikari family, he's Paris, the Prince's relative. There are some made up characters in here because I couldn't think of any body to play some of the characters in this story so I apoligize for that. Sehara, you know that reporter kid plays the part of Mercutio. Oh yeah Dark is Daisuke's older brother and Krad is Riku's older brother, they maily take the place of Capulet and Montegue, but you'll see Hikari and Koske every once in a while. Ok I don't think I forgot anything... please read and enjoy!
Two families, both alike in dignity,
In fair Tokyo where we lay our scene,
From ancient grudge break to new mutiny,
Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean.
From forth the fatal loins of these two foes
A pair of star-crossed lovers take their life;
Whose misadventured piteous overthrows
Do with their death, bury their families' strife.
The fearful passage of their death-marked love,
And the continuance of their families' rage,
Which but their children's end naught could remove,
Is now the two hours' traffic of our story;
The which, if you with patient ears attend,
What here shall miss our toil shall strive to mend.
Our story opens up with Sam and George, two servants of the Hikari noble house. They walk in the streets of Tokyo with swords buckled at their sides. They talk happily as they wander the busy streets. "Niwa, ha, those dogs, they make me laugh!" Sam exclaimed to his friend.
"We quarrel everyday with them, it's rather tiring, and they fight like women." George said.
"Hmm? Look a servant of the house of Niwa." Sam said.
"Yes thou is right two of them, Sam." George said.
"I shall duel." Sam said, drawing his sword.
"Oh but Sam, whom shall start a fight in these streets meets endless suffering." George said.
"Then we shall make them start it." Sam said. "Anger them we must."
"Mm, yes good idea, Sam, good indeed." George agreed. The two servants of Hikari walk to the servants of Niwa, Aaron and Ben.
"Hello, servants of Niwa, how is thou?" George asked.
"Thou is a servant of Hikari, we speak to none." Aaron said darkly.
"Ah, but thou speak now, we mean no harm." Sam said.
"Servants of Hikari, thou art trying to start a quarrel?" Ben asked.
"Ah, no we ask only to seek a nice chat." George explained.
"No, we do not talk with thee." Aaron said, starting to walk away.
"Art thou angry?" Sam asked.
"It is below us to chat with low-lives such as thee." Ben sneered. Fire shot through Sam's eyes.
"Have at thee villain!" Sam growled pulling out his sword. Kitashi, a nephew to the Niwa, stepped in front of the two.
"Is thou art mad? Suffering will thou endure if thou shall fight!" Kitashi exclaimed.
"Niwa, thou trying to start something?" it was Yenski, Lady Hikari's nephew.
"Gentle Yenski, come help me part this foolish fight." Kitashi said.
"Draw thy sword, Niwa, thou shall look upon death!" Yenski was all fired up.
"No, I shall not! It is forbidden in these streets!" Kitashi was only trying to keep the peace.
"Niwa, thou shall die!" Yenski swung his sword at poor Kitashi. Kitashi blocked with his just in time.
"Thou art foolish, stop this madness!" Kitashi exclaimed. Yenski did not listen, one swing after another he attacked Kitashi, Kitashi only trying to defend himself.
The two servants of Hikari and the two servants of Niwa had joined in the fight. Crowds of people screamed and ran as more and more of the Hikaris and Niwas joined in the violent fight.
"What's this? A fight, thou art the Niwas!" Krad growled. "Hand me my white feather, woman!" he pointed at Lady Hikari, Krad's mother.
"Thou shall not engage in this fight, thou shall be punished!" Lady Hikari exclaimed. Krad ignored her and grabbed his feather himself to engage in the fight.
"A battle, none other than that cursed Hikari! Krad, he's there too!" Dark grabbed for his feather, Emiko, Dark's mother, stopped him.
"This thou shall not join in on, punishment by the Prince shall reign upon you!" she growled. As did Krad, Dark ignored his mother's warning and engaged in combat.
"A fight, a fight, leave our streets, you foul Niwa, Hikari!" the citizens of Tokyo all yelled. Trumpets sounded and soldiers entered the streets. The Prince was coming.
"Thou will stop now!" it was the Prince, whose angry voice boomed over crowd. The fighting ceased for the Prince was very angry.
"Prince Lyon!" Aaron exclaimed. The crowd of people bowed to their prince.
"More than once have you disturbed the peace of our quiet streets! One more disturbance, and on pain of death shall go to the person responsible!" Lyon growled. "Come men, we take leave!" the soldiers and Prince Lyon left the city streets to return to the castle.
The streets cleared, the Hikaris and Niwas left for their houses. "Who started this fight, cousin?" Dark asked Kitashi.
"The servants of Hikari, Dark, tried to make ours start it first. I tried to stop it, but Yenski came and attacked." Kitashi explained.
"Where is my Daisuke, was he in the fight?" Emiko asked.
"No, ma'am, I saw him daydreaming in the apple trees there." Kitashi explained.
"Thank goodness he wasn't here!" Emiko exclaimed, walking off with Dark.
Daisuke came into view, holding a bouquet of flowers. "Oy, Daisuke, what saddens thee?"
"Her, she won't return my love." Daisuke sighed sadly.
"Risa? Don't fall for her, boy, she has no interest in you, I can tell!" Kitashi said.
"She is the only one for me." Daisuke said.
"There are many other girls out there, way better looking than she." Kitashi said.
"Prove it." Daisuke said.
Hikari Mansion
"She is my only daughter, Krad's dearest little sister, I want her to be ready before I give her away for marriage." Hikari said.
"Oh, but I have waited so long for her hand." Satoshi, the Prince's relative, complained.
"And thou shall wait longer if thou want to marry my Riku." Hikari growled. Satoshi sighed impatiently.
"Then when thou ready to marry?" Satoshi asked.
"When she becomes of age, Satoshi, I will tell thou when." Hikari said. "Besides, Riku can't be the only girl here thou likes, I am holding a costume ball tonight, go to it, check out all the women, and make sure she's the one thou wants, Satoshi Hiwatari."
"I shall then, but I assure thee, she is the one I love." Satoshi said. He left.
"Servant come here." Hikari ordered. A small young servant walked up to Hikari.
"Yes sir?" he asked.
"Go to the streets, hand out these invitations to everyone on this list." Hikari said.
"Ah yes sir, but…" he said.
"Go, boy!" Hikari growled. The servant left.
The Streets of Tokyo
"You so need to get over Risa, Daisuke." Kitashi said.
"Ah, but none is fair as she." Daisuke explained.
"Yes there are way more beautiful maidens than Risa Hikari, and you know, she is a Hikari, which means your love for her would give any excuse for another fight between Hikari and Niwa, and Prince Lyon said whom so ever starts another fight shall die." Kitashi said.
The young servant boy from the house of Hikari came up to Daisuke and Kitashi. "Hello, gentle men, will you please help me with this." He holds up the list of names that Hikari gave to him.
"Why can't you read?" Daisuke asked. The servant shook his head.
"Please if you would, sir, read off the names to me?" he asked.
"Ah alright," Daisuke took the parchment. "Let's see." Daisuke read off the names to the servant. Two of the names included Risa Hikari and Daisuke's friend, Takeshi Sehara.
"What's this for?" Kitashi asked.
"A costume ball being held at Hikari Mansion tonight, all is welcome to come, unless you be from house of Niwa. Thank you and good day to you sirs!" the servant boy left.
"A costume ball held at Hikari house! And fair Risa will be there!" Daisuke exclaimed, lost in thought.
"Now, now, we're of Niwa, we can't go!" Kitashi said.
"Ah, but Kitashi, my friend, we'll be in costume, so no one will know it's us!" Daisuke had a clever plan.
Kitashi thought for a moment. "Ok I shall go with thou if thou will look at other women and see if Risa Hikari is really the one."
"Yeah, yeah ok." Daisuke had no intention to; he just wanted to see Risa.
Hikari Mansion
"Nurse, bring me my Riku!" Lady Hikari ordered.
"Aye, yes milady." The nurse called for Riku.
"Yes, mother?" Riku came walking down the stairs in a beautiful white dress. White was the color of Hikari.
"Ah my lovely little Riku, how does thou feel?" Lady Hikari asked.
"Fine, mother, why does thou ask?" Riku asked.
"A costume ball is being held here tonight, and young Satoshi Hiwatari, Prince Lyon's relative, is going to there. Young Satoshi seeks you for his love." Lady Hikari explained.
"A man, young lady! None as fine as he! Satoshi Hiwatari, why he's the most handsome man is all of fair Tokyo!" the nurse exclaimed.
"Oh, such a fine young man." Both the nurse and Lady Hikari daydreamed about him.
Riku rolled her eyes and said to herself, "Satoshi Hiwatari is not that handsome, actually I find him rather creepy looking."
"What say you, daughter, will thou love this gentleman?" Lady Hikari asked.
"I shall see, I will not guarantee that I will like this Satoshi." Riku said. And it is most likely that I will not!
A servant walks is. "Lady Hikari, guests have come."
"Ah, come we follow thee! Riku, come Satoshi awaits!" Lady Hikari said.
Streets of Tokyo on the way to Hikari Mansion
"We should have you dance, Daisuke!" Takeshi said.
"I don't want to, Takeshi." Daisuke said.
"Ah you are a lover; borrow Cupid's wings and soar with them." Takeshi said.
"Cupid's wings are white, white wings are forbidden in house of Niwa." Daisuke grumbled.
Takeshi laughed. "We only joke, Daisuke."
"Thou shall not joke about such things." Daisuke growled.
"Is thou angry?" Takeshi asked.
"Finest Hikari of all will not return my affection." Daisuke said.
"Krad?" Takeshi questioned.
Daisuke's face turned red with anger. "What does thou take me for!" Takeshi and Kitashi laughed.
"No need to be angered, Daisuke, it was just a joke." Takeshi laughed. "Risa I see, I know."
"She is the fairest." Daisuke said.
"Trust me on this one, she isn't" Takeshi said.
"What is with you two? Both say the same thing!" Daisuke exclaimed. "I dreamt a dream tonight."
"As did I."
"Well, what was yours?"
"That dreamers often lie." Takeshi looked at Daisuke's puzzled expression. "Not to worry, Daisuke, let's have some fun!" Takeshi and Kitashi went ahead.
"My dream, it was frightening at that. By a vile, I meet a premature death. What does thou make of this? Only a dream, I should not worry." Daisuke said to himself.
"Daisuke!" Daisuke looked up to Takeshi and Kitashi who were calling him over.
"I shall not worry about it!" Daisuke smiled and ran after them.
