DISCLAIMER I do not own anything of the D N Angel line, because, frankly, if I did, I wouldn't be writing a spin off of the series now would I ?

This story takes place when the boys are older and Krad and Dark are gone, Niwa's dad is dead, and Hiwatari has been completely abandoned by his "family"

Chapter 1

indicates a switch between POV's, Niwa, and Hiwatari

"WHO GAVE YOU PERMISSION TO TALK TO ME YOU WICKED CHILD". The words rang through his head over and over as he lied in his room

quietly sobbing to himself, not knowing what to do with himself anymore. He would have given anything to go back to when his father was alive. At least his

mother was passed out because of the alcohol, on the couch downstairs, she couldn't do anything to him if she wasn't conscious to get off her ass to come

after him. This was the only reprieve that ever came during the day. As this last thought crossed his mind, his apprehension and exhaustion overtook him and

he felt himself fall into a fitful and restless sleep.

The ringing of his alarm wasn't the thing that awoke him in the morning, it hadn't been for a while now. No what had awoken him was the thought that the

weekend was over, and he wouldn't have to see his mother until tonight. Whether or not this was a good thing was a mystery to him, because, as a matter of

fact, he would much rather see her during the day when she wasn't slammed and tired, and then, only because he had to see her at all. He knew his mother,

of course he did, she wouldn't let him off the hook, he was her rag doll, her punching bag, he was the thing that she took all of her depression and anger,

sadness, and tension off on. No, if he didn't come home, she would do something about it. She would call the police, contact all of his friends. Even if he did

go to the police, what would he have to prove it. She didn't hit him, but before the accident, they had all loved each other so much, she had meant

everything to him, along with his father. Just as it had before, unfortunately, this hadn't changed. He cared about what she said, he couldn't help it, he cared

about what she thought of him, and he cared about what she did to him, even if everything was only verbal, it still hurt. No, he would have to deal with it until

he was old enough to get out, or find someway he could get away, which at the moment, didn't seem to likely. So he told himself what he always did, he

would just have to get through another day. He would have to, he had made a vow to himself when it started to break him. He WOULD get away, he

wouldn't let what his mother did affect what he turned out to be, he had to go on, he wouldn't let himself give up now. He got up and got ready for school.

He wondered why he hadn't said anything to his friends, oh, yeah, he didn't have any. Another thing his mother had taken from him. Ever since everything

started happening, he just didn't have the strength, or the will to be with his friends, sure they had wondered what was going on, but after countless periods

of asking, they just sort of gave up and left him alone. Now they didn't even say hi when he passed them between classes. One thing that no one had known

about, the one thing that he couldnt tell anyone, for fear of her taking that away to, his love, his passion, the one person that he had admired and looked

longingly after for years now. Satoshi Hiwatari. The boy of his dreams, the one he was sure would protect him, that was, if he had felt the same. He tried to

tell himself that he had a chance, but he knew he was just lying to himself. He knew it was just his hopes coming together into the one person that he loved.

So he would sit in the back ground and watch, just watch. He arrived at school as he always did, first one in, but this morning was different, he wasn't alone

as he usually was. HE was in there. What he was doing here this early, he wondered. But oh well, at least he could catch a few fleeting glimpses of the

handsome bluenett, at least he could watch, and dream, for a while at least.
