D.N. Angel one-shot
Title: "Existing For You"
Okay so the inspiration for this came from when I was at the computer and was trying to find a different...idea to go with this couple and I heard robin williams as the Jeanie on Aladdin and I though, 'what if Satoshi was a Jeanie...' and well you can say that the idea's I had just changed as I wrote more and more of this one-shot, lol :) Regardless I had such a wonderful time, it was such a blast writing this one :). And thank you to Wingfy for the motivation to write another DxS one-shot :). Please enjoy and happy readings to you all ^_^.
The rain started to fall down to the dry earth as it quenched it's thirst for fresh clean water. The lakes and streams flowed with happiness as the rain seemed to purify all of nature. To some rain is a thing of beauty, it's a part of nature that helps purify and cleanse you. For others it's mean of inspiration, something that if a person closed their eyes and stood out in it they could think of something amazing to do with what images flashed through their minds. One such person was doing just that, standing out in the rain as he let it soak his bright red hair. He smiled in happiness as the rain both inspired him and helped calm his nerves and stress.
"Ah, that feels good." he sighed happily.
Just then a white what looked like rabbit bounced out into the cool rain and up on the red heads shoulders. "Chuu!" he said.
Daisuke, as the young man was called, petted the animal. "Is dinner ready With?" he asked with a smile.
"Hey Daisuke, your mom told me to tell you dinner is ready." a young man with violet hair said as he poked his head out the back sliding doors.
"Okay Dark, I'm coming." the red head said as the little animal jumped down off his shoulders and ran into the nice warm and dry house.
The young man sat at the dinner table as the food was passed around. His mother turned to him with a series look on her face. "Dai dear, you should't go out in the rain like that, it's much too cold for that."
Daisuke blinked, had his mother been outside that day, it wasn't really that cold, yes a bit cooler than the day before but by much. He sighed, his mother was still over protective, even though he was a young man now.
He decided now would be a good time to tell her. "Mom, I was thinking about getting my own place, you know a apartment." he said and his mother looked at him like he was crazy.
"Absolutely not." she shook his head.
The red head sighed and looked towards his father and grandfather. They both blinked as they too thought Dai's mom was being a bit extreme.
"Honey, don't you think it's time for Daisuke to go out on his own?" he asked sweetly with a smile.
"No." she simply said and everyone sweat dropped.
"Mrs. Niwa I'll be moving in with Daisuke so you have nothing to worry about." Dark smiled with confidences.
Daisuke looked at the violet haired young man with a look that said what are you doing?
The red heads mother gave Dark a look. "And what makes you think that you'll have time to watch him while you do all your thieving? Hm?" she asked.
Both young men sweatdropped. Daisuke sighed and finished his dinner and then excused himself to his room to work on his artwork for the gallery opening that was taking place in two days.
Dark went up to check on the red head about a hour after he had excused himself from the dinner table. He knocked first.
"Come in Dark." the Daisuke simply said.
"How do you do that every time?" the violet haired young man asked he scratched his head.
"Come on Dark, it's either you Mom or Dad. Most of the time it's either you or mom, it's not that hard." the young man said as he turned back to his painting.
Dark leaned over his shoulder to take a look at the painting.
"How come you didn't finish the face on that one?" he asked as he pointed to one of the individuals in the painting.
"Because, I don't know what they look like." he answered.
"What do you mean, just make up a face." Dark countered as he shrugged.
"I've tried and each time I have it didn't look right, like it wasn't suppose to be there or something." the red head sighed.
"You'll figure something out, you always do." the violet haired man said as he waved and existed out of the room. "Later!"
"See ya Dark." he smiled as the door closed.
"What to do?" he mumbled to himself as he tapped the edge of the easel and leaned down on his legs.
A young man walked down the sidewalk head down as he thought about what he lost and how he would get it back. He didn't know how he would get it back because he didn't know where it was at in the first place. The ice blue haired young man sighed. "How am I going to find my lamp?" To anyone he would have looked like a normal ordinary guy, with his slacks and his nice black slick shoes and his gray long cupped sleeved shirt and dark blue vest. There was one thing you saw that not many individuals wore or even owned and that was silver cuffs. They were shinny and if you took a close up look at them you could see scratches and nicks in them. Why would a man such as he wear something like that...it wouldn't to hard to understand if it wasn't for the fact this man wasn't a man at all but a Jeanie instead, a Jeanie who had somehow lost his lamp, his home and the source of his power. Power...he at times craved it, needed it. As if that was all he needed to survive.
Satoshi sighed. "I need that lamp back." he ran his hand through his soaked hair.
"Power...hm." he hummed. He walked for a few more blocks and took a turn and worked his way up a hill. His thoughts were all over the place. Trusting people with my feelings, opening up my heart, that doesn't matter any more to me. Power, it's the only way to survive, if you don't have power beside you then life isn't worth living. Just as those thoughts ended he stopped as he felt something that he wasn't use to...a tug at his heart. Like some invisible force had pulled him to this spot, to this household. What was here that was so strong as to stop him in the middle of his search?
Daisuke stopped the strokes of his brush and looked out his door. There was something he had felt, something that jolted his mind and pulled at his heart. Something that was so strong that it distracted him from his art, would could it have been. The red head shrugged. "I must be working too hard." and he rubbed his eyes with the back of his hand that held the paint brush. He sat it down and stood up. "Time for a break." and walked out his room.
Satoshi looked at the house a big longer and then started to walk again. Where was he going? What would he do if he couldn't find his lamp? Was he going to find it? Would he have to hurt someone for it? "I can't give up until I find it." and he moved onward up the rest of the hill and around a block. By the time he had reached a fountain the rain had stopped and he sat down for a break. He had been looking all day long, from the time the sun had risen until then. Satoshi looked at his pocket watch. "It's 8 in the evening. " he sighed and laid down on the edge of the fountain. The stones were a bit cold from the rain and still wet but that didn't matter because he too was wet, soaking wet. When did things go so wrong? He was once a man, but that was such a long time ago. He couldn't even remember what it was like to be a man, a man without power such as the power he possessed now. "Father." he whispered as he held up the pocket watch from the chain and let it dangle above his face. "What would you do?" he asked to the night cool air. Before he knew it he had fallen asleep on the edge and clenched the watch to his chest, as if it was the only link to his true, once human identity. It was said when he first became a Jeanie, those who took in the power of a Jeanie were destine to be alone and stay alone for the rest of eternity, they could not and would not love anyone else but their own power.
The sun, it was so bright. The blue haired young Jeanie couldn't remember looking at a sun so bright and beautiful as the one before his eyes. He blinked, Who...who is that? he thought as he rubbed his eyes and sat up very slowly from his spot on the edge. He couldn't catch what all the stranger was saying.
"...okay?" the red head asked as he looked worriedly at the tall blue haired young man.
"Wha..." Satoshi trailed off. He took a deep breath and looked at the clearer vision of the red head. "Who are you? What do you want?" he asked a but rudely.
"I-I just saw you laying here and thought I would check to make sure you were alright." the young man stuttered at first.
The blue haired man stood a bit wobbly to his feet. "I'm fine. You can go now." and started to walk off."
Daisuke followed the man all the way to the steps and ran to his side when he started to sway and fall to his knees.
"Hey, you alright?" he asked as he caught the young man. "Hey. Hey!" Daisuke yelled as the man didn't respond back.
Satoshi pushed the red head away and got back to his feet. "I'll be fine. Now leave me...alone!" he yelled out.
"O-okay." the red head was taken aback by the other man's rudeness and roughness. He walked away but stopped and looked back as he watched Satoshi's back fade from his sight. "I hope he'll be okay. He looked sick." but the red head couldn't do much if the man didn't want him to bother him. He sighed and made his way to the art store.
Saoshi didn't even know how he had gotten himself to a park. One moment he was surrounded by houses and businesses and now he had been walking around a park. He didn't feel to hot either. His head hurt and he felt hot and cold off and on and his shivered too. This was not good. "Damn it!" he slammed his fist against a tree. "What the hell is wrong with me! I need to find my lamp!" he took a step forward and stopped when three people stopped him.
"Hey mister, do you have change you could spare us?" they asked as one beat a bat in his hand, another had a crow bar slung over his shoulder lazy like and a woman had dangers one in her hand and the other still in it's sheth. The woman approached him. "Come on, you must have something." she said as she rubbed his chin seductive like.
"Leave now." the blue haired man said in a cold and low voice.
"what do we have here? Someone with a backbone?" the one with the bat said as he leaned against it like a cane.
The crow bar guy laughed. "This should be easy boss. All talk and no fight."
"I don't have time for you three." Satoshi said as he prepared to defend himself. They charged him and just as the bat guy raised the bat the blue haired Jeanie collapsed to his knees. No! His mind shouted out as the one with the crow bar came down.
Before Satoshi knew what was happening he was tackled down to the ground. They both landed with a slush thud as they slid in the muddy grass. "Hey you okay?" the voice asked.
Satoshi could have sworn he knew that voice. He opened his eye slowly and looked up into ruby red eyes that looked worried. "What the hell...are you doing?" he asked in a weak state.
Daisuke sighed. "It looks like I just saved your butt." he got to his knees as he helped Satoshi to his knees as well.
"You bastard! How dare you put your nose where it doesn't belong." the man with the bat said as he tightened his hold on his bat.
"It belongs here and you three don't." the red head said with venom in his voice. Daisuke stopped. Whey was he soo pissed off. He was so very happy just a few minutes ago after he bough his new art supplies. What had pissed him off so much so quickly.
"Why you!" the man shouted. "Get'em guys!" he said as he charged the red head. Daisuke stood to his feet quickly despite it being wet and slick out. He ducked as the bat almost caught his head and leaped backwards from the crow bar as it almost caught his side. Daisuke almost got a dagger in his arm if not for the low branch that was just above his head. He leaped in the air and grabbed onto it and then swung himself up and onto the branch. he knelled up on the branch and smirked down at the three below. "Now leave before I get mad." he hissed out. The look he gave them said he meant business. They dropped their weapons and ran for it.
Daisuke leaped down from the branch and helped the blue haired man to his feet. "Come on. I'm taking you to my house." he slung a arm over his shoulders and they started to walk.
When they were on the sidewalk the man spoke up. "Why are you helping me? You don't even know me. I could be a killer." the man said as he looked to the side.
"Because I want to and I doubt you are a killer." the red head laughed as they made their way to Daisuke's house.
Just as they stopped in front of the red heads house Dark busted through the front door and ran out to them. He held up a finger to let them know he needed to catch his breath first then he spoke. "Come on Daisuke this way." the violet haired young man said.
"Dark, wait, where are we going?" the red head asked as he followed the Phantom Theif.
Dark looked back as he walked and smiled. "To our new apartment. Don't worry your dad helped me bring all your things over there." he looked back in front of him.
"What?" the red head shouted. He looked over at Satoshi as he saw the blue haired man winched at the loud noise. "Sorry." the red head said as he looked down at the man apologetically. Satoshi said nothing as he was nodding in and out of conciseness.
"What about my mother Dark?" the red head asked worriedly.
"Don't worry about her. Your dad convinced her to let you move out." Dark said as he kept his attention ahead of him.
For some odd reason the tone in Dark's voice sounded like he hadn't told Daisuke everything. The red head just shrugged and shifted Satoshi a bit so that he wouldn't lose his grip on the blue haired man.
"Dark I don't want to hurry you or anything but...I think he's about to pass out here." he said as he motioned his head towards Satoshi as his expression looked hazed and out of it.
Dark smiled. "No worries, just up and around this corner and we're there."
Yeah, up a hill and a thing of stairs and they were there. By the time they had reached the stairs the blue haired Jeanie was completely passed out. Dark had to help Daisuke with the young blue haired man. Once inside the apartment they took the young man to a bed room and gently placed him on the bed.
Dark rubbed the back of his head. "I had to say this but we gotta get those wet cloths off of him before he gets even worse."
Daisuke sighed, of course his day would get better. "Yeah, you're right."
They took off his cloths, everything and then Dark went to his new room and got out a pair of pj's and handed them to Daisuke. The red head blinked up at his friend. "What? Why do I have to put them on?" he asked as he turned red in the face.
"Because he's your friend and you brought him home so it's your job to do so." the violet haired man smirked.
"Fine." the red head sighed. It wasn't as bad as Daisuke thought it was going to be. As soon as he got done he placed the man under the covers and made sure he was as comfort as a passed out man could get. Just before he left he stared at his face. Those eyes, those icy blue eyes, they were so gorgeous and just beautiful. He didn't know eye colors like that existed but they looked very good on this man. I wonder where he's from and why he was sleeping by the fountain? The red head though as he existed the room.
Just as he entered his new kitchen Dark spoke up. "Who is he and where did you find him?" the violet eyed Theif asked as he got serious.
"I found him sleeping on the edge of the fountain and then he was almost attacked in the park by a bunch of thugs." he finished all huffy and puffy. There it was again. He got a angry at Dark for asking a perfectly normal question, but...why?
"Whoa! What's with the attitude Dai?" Dark blinked confused by the red heads reply.
"I...don't know." he said as he sat down at the kitchen counter's stoll. "I did it back in the park when the thugs were about to beat up on him." he said confused as much as Dark was.
With jumped up from out of nowhere onto the counter and then onto the red heads shoulders. "Ch...chuu?" the white animal exclaimed in a somewhat sad manner.
Daisuke smiled at the sweet animal. "I'm find With." and petted the animal affectionaly on the head.
"I got it!" Dark exclaimed out of no where.
Daisuke looked at him with a confused look. "What?" he asked.
Dark gave him that look that said You lucky dog. Then said. "You love him, don't you." and winked.
The red head turned as red as the tub of paint he had bought. "I-I can't! No way!" he exclaim maybe a bit to loudly.
" And don't hand me that bull crap about him not being a woman either." the Thief eyed Daisuke.
"That has nothing to with it Dark! It's just that I just met him!" the red exclaimed a bit to wildly.
Daisuke, Daisuke. You ever heard the phrase 'Love at first sight.' " he winked again.
"That's not possible...is it?" he asked unsure.
"Sure it is. Anything is possible Daisuke." he smiled over at his friend.
The red head sighed. "You're crazy." and got up.
Just as the red head made his way over to the sink to fill up a bowl of cool water Dark replied with. "And you're in loove." he giggled.
"Shut up." Daisuke simply said as he mad his way into his new room with a bowl of cool water and a rag.
"Whatever you say Daisuke, whatever you say."
Daisuke pulled up a chair and sat down as he began to dabbed the blue haired mans' forehead.
"F-father." the man muttered in his sleep.
Daisuke looked down at him sadly.
"Who are you?" the red head whispered in the dark.
