Hello, Whisper (that's not my real name either.) here…aka Sesshomaru – Bishounen, here with a DNAngel Fic! (Be nice, it's my first.)
Ok, first off, this is yaoi…Boy/boy, shonen-ai, If ya dinna like, push back on the browser me laddie.
Second, I don't own the characters. Really. I may put in a partial claim on Dark though…just don't sue me, ok? This is a Dark x Daisuke ficcy….YES YES YES!
Dark: The thought that you're even contemplating partial ownership scares me.
Whisper: C'mon, you know you love me.
Dark: Ok, but I may not after this fic. You're not going to do any bone-breaking again are you?
Whisper: …
Dark: AH! YOU ARE?
Whisper: Oh, be quiet you big baby, or I'll pair you with Satoshi.
Dark: Shutting up, ma'am.
Daisuke: I'll keep him quiet…
Whisper: Oooh, goody, can I watch?
Dark & Daisuke: HELL NO!
Whisper: Ok, it was worth a try. On to the fic!
Dark: :mutters: About time…
Whisper: Oh, and Ashiteru means I love you in Japanese by the way.
Dark: Baka…which means idiot, or stupid by the way. :gets hit on head by angry authoress: OUCH!

The Price of Angels
Sayonara, My Lovely DarkOo.oO
The moment was here; the time was now. The girl who loved him stood before him, and he leaned forward to kiss her. But then, he paused, something deep-seated and far more powerful than what he was feeling now, surfaced to challenge him. Just a doubt, a little nagging doubt. This would be the end, wouldn't it? Feelings of love returned, and Dark would disappear. Phantom Thief Dark would be gone, never to return to Daisuke Niwa. But, was that what he really wanted?
/ "So what happens when she loves me back?" the red-haired boy asked, curious. Silence. "Say, Dark, are you there?"
/Yeah, Niwa family curse speaking./ The thief sounded resigned, almost sad, something that disturbed his counterpart.
"Dark don't be that way. Did you hear what I said?"
/Yep, and the answer to your question is, I go bye-bye. And the Niwa family gets about forty years of peace. Or longer, depending. If you have a bunch of daughters I'm out of luck./ A soft chuckle rippled through their connection as the purple-haired rogue laughed.
"But…do you want to go?" Daisuke asked softly.
/Does it matter/ Dark's voice became very quiet/I'm simply an ageless being brought to life by feelings. I'm not human, I'm not even real in the conventional sense. I'll go when your love is returned. I haven't got a choice, Dai-chan./
The boy thought that his partner sounded sad, he could act like he didn't care, but Daisuke had let the thief become his friend, and they found it hard to hide their feelings from each other. Truth be told, he didn't want Dark to go. It would be…lonely…
"What if I don't want you to go?" If silence can sound startled, then the following silence most certainly did.
/Y-you don't want me to go/ Dark sounded almost hopeful, yet…afraid.
"No, not really. I'd like to keep you around. You've become a good friend you know."
/Hmph./
"You're more human than some people I know, Dark. You have feelings and emotions. And I'm sure you have hopes and dreams. You don't deserve to be treated like a curse."
/You weren't exactly pleased when you first found out you were saddled with me./ The retort was almost bitter.
"Can you blame me?" Daisuke asked defensively, "I had no idea you were just going to show up, much less take control of my body!"
/Yeah, that's me. The little parasite who takes over./ The thief was mocking himself, and the red-haired teen didn't like it. This side of Dark was one he hadn't seen before, but he guessed it had always been there, lurking.
"Stop it, Dark. You aren't like that. I…I enjoy having you here with me." Daisuke confessed.
/Yeah right. I've put you through hell. I tease you, and there have been times when I've acted contrary to your wishes. You'll be better off without me. Besides, it doesn't matter, Dai-chan. I'll have to go eventually. Don't get to attached to your pets./
"Dark! STOP IT! You're not my pet, you're my friend! You're funny and helpful and you keep me company. You've gotten me out of trouble and been there when I needed you! I don't want to lose you!" He was almost desperate to say something to cheer Dark up.
/Go to sleep, Daisuke. I'll still be here in the morning./ There was an air of finality to the statement. And the boy could feel the Phantom Thief's consciousness retreating. It hurt that Dark thought so little of him. There was never a time he had thought of the thief as a pet, much less a parasite. A curse? Maybe, but that had changed quite quickly, and though they didn't always get along, and often caused each other grief over the romantic side of the partnership, the purple-haired man's flirting had never REALLY got out of hand. Not enough to keep Daisuke from getting attached to the said girl that is.
He genuinely liked Dark, despite the theif's faults, and was distressed by his friend's withdrawal. They could both sense that some closure was coming in Dai's relationship and now he knew that the thief looked on it with dread. He didn't want to hurt the other, really. His thoughts in turmoil, Daisuke finally fell asleep.
While the boy slept, Dark moved closer to his consciousness, there, in Daisuke's mind, they could 'see' one another. The amethyst-eyed thief knelt beside the figure of the sleeping boy.
/Ashiteru, Dai-chan./
Those strange eyes sparkled with unshed tears. They were quickly blinked away. Phantom Thieves never cried.
And he didn't deserve Daisuke. He didn't... but it still hurt so badly, like his heart was being torn from his chest.
Oo.oO
Daisuke pushed away the doubt, and kissed her, this sweet girl before him. And he could almost feel something snap, like a cord.
/Ashiteru, Dai-chan…/ A whisper like a fragment of memory.
And then, nothing. He had felt this emptiness before. But it had never been so complete, so final. Suddenly breaking away, Daisuke felt his legs give way beneath him. Dark? Dark? Are you there? Please! Dark! You said you loved me! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! DAAAAAAAAAAAARK! And the boy cried, the girl who loved him standing behind him, hands on his shoulders, quietly offering comfort from a pain she could not comprehend.
Oo.oO
Dark: O.o I cannot believe you just did that to me.
Whisper: Hey, when the muses strike, I must obey. Don't worry, I'll do ….something …about it.
Dark: - - I don't like the way you said that.
Whisper: :Cackles evilly:
Daisuke: Hey! I want my thief back!
Whisper: :clamps a hand over mouths of squabbling twosome: Anyway, review and I'll see you next chapter. And for a few people who might have questions, I know this story, I'm just telling it the way I like it. Mehehe. Whoever said I played fair?
