A/N: LVT is here with another Fanfiction involving the Bishounen from D.N.Angel! Celebrate!! However, this is only a two-shot, and it's shounen-ai, not yaoi.
Sumire- Yes, I'm here, too. We tried to make this as tragic as possible… that is not easy, mind you. I think of it this way: If I cry, then it must be sad enough.
LVT- BTW, the title of this story, "Boku no Hikari" means "My Light".
Also, this story is different from "Ore no Megami", since it's basically all considered "flashback". The first scene is in the present.
Finally, I use two songs in here, written in the center and italicized, one in each part. Oh, and they're in English, so no translation required. Titles and where from are at the end of each part.
Disclaimer: I do not own D.N.Angel. If I did, then there would be yaoi and shounen-ai all over, and a brunette by the name of "Risa Harada" would be "magically" killed (Let's see…A flurry of feathers loaded with magic should be enough, right?).

Please read, and when you're done, review!
Mire- The treat is a kawaii Satchan Angel!
Boku no Hikari
Part One: Satoshi
I've decided: Tomorrow, I'm going to be with Boku no Hikari. It's become a sad habit of mine not to write his name, but refer to him as "Boku no Hikari".
As I write, Dark is not stopping me. He knows that if I do this, he goes away. However, he's saying that he won't stop me if I do this. Dark is hiding something. I've tried to pry into his memories, but can't seem to find what I'm looking for. Quite annoying actually; I know what it is, but he won't confess it.
So, tomorrow's the day. It's also the two-year anniversary of Boku no Hikari's death, so I guess it would be appropriate.
Well, this is my final entry.
Good-bye, everyone: Those who I have loved, still love, and those who will miss me.
"I wish that I could turn back time…"
-You're serious?-
+Yes.+
Daisuke put his pen down, and looked at the clock. It was almost midnight. He didn't bother to close the journal: It didn't matter if people saw what he wrote. After all, he would only be focused on one thing tomorrow.
He tried to get some sleep, but it didn't help. 'Why the hell am I doing this, anyways?'
As he questioned himself, Daisuke fell asleep, and dreamed about what brought him up to this moment.
"9:00 PM, at the Azumano District Art Museum," (This district has how many museums?), "I will steal the Otoko no Ko no Namida, the Boy's Tears. Signed, Kaitou Dark."
…At least, that's what the warning letter said. It was 9:01. The Kaitou was late.
"Damn that thief! He's late again!!" Detective Saehara complained.
"Don't worry. He'll show." replied the Chief Commander next to him. "The infamous Kaitou will show up."
Fourteen minutes passed. Detective Saehara was getting extremely impatient. Satoshi noticed that something must be wrong. Seconds late, maybe, but not fifteen minutes!
"I'm going in. Wait here." Satoshi ran into the building.
"Without back-up?!" Saehara shouted after him.
'The Otoko no Ko no Namida could be extremely dangerous. If a boy cries, and his tears land on the art piece…' Satoshi thought to himself. He didn't know that his thoughts could be heard...
\All you care about is Niwa Daisuke./
/Shut up, Krad!\
\You know that I'm right, Satoshi-Sama./
Ignoring the "angel", Satoshi ran into the room where the Hikari art piece was. Lo and behold, Dark was there waiting, holding the copper-colored statuette of a teenage boy.
"What took you, Commander? Girlfriend?" Dark smirked.
"I'm not a playboy like you, Kaitou." Satoshi retorted back.
"Doesn't mean you can't have a girlfriend." He kept smirking. Satoshi glared at the Kaitou. "Creepy-Boy's got a girlfriend! Creepy-Boy's got a girlfriend!" Dark chanted (And Daisuke was desperately asking for help.).
"Shut up! God, you're more annoying than Krad…"
"Touchy, aren't we? Anyways, I'll be taking my leave now. With!" Black wings landed on Dark's back. Otoko no Ko no Namida in tow, Dark flew off into the night.
\Let me out, and I'll kill that damn Kaitou…/
/It's all right. This is a two-piece artwork. As long as he doesn't have the Onna no Ko no Namida, then its true powers can't be activated.\
+That's weird…+
-What's wrong, Daisuke?- Dark flew back towards the Niwa household, when Daisuke suddenly spoke up.
+These past few nights, Hiwatari-Kun would let Krad out…+
-Hiwatari's body is being pushed to the limit right now. If Krad keeps coming out against his will, he will die. I don't usually use my magic, unless it's absolutely necessary, which is almost never is.-
+If you're worried about me…+
-I need to save my power for when I will need it.-
Daisuke sighed. He knew that the only reason was for Dark…His ego is too large…
+By the way, Dark, I think you have a low mentality rate…+
-Being around for a long time does that to you. -
+You teased Hiwatari-Kun like a pre-schooler. +
-You should have heard what kind of things I said to Krad! Those were the days…-
+…I'd rather not. +
A rather regular day at school, so far. Saehara Takeshi had placed an article in the school paper saying how, "Dark did it again! A successful theft by Azumano's Infamous Kaitou." All of the girls were buzzing with excitement, as usual.
"Um…Hiwatari-Kun?" Daisuke walked up to the boy, who was sitting at his desk, reading (typical, right?).
"Yes, Niwa-Kun?"
"Why didn't you come after us last night?"
"It wasn't easy. Especially since…" Satoshi didn't finish his thought. Daisuke cocked his head, looking extremely cute for a boy, with a confused look on his face. Satoshi looked at this, and smiled a very small smile, unnoticeable.
Well, almost unnoticeable. Daisuke saw it, and smiled back, in a larger smile.
"Niwa-Kun! Help me with my English homework!" came a voice.
"Hai, Harada-San." Daisuke walked over to Risa, and assisted her.
\Someone's jealous…/
/Shut up.\
\When he cocked his head, you were thinking, "How cute"…/
/Whatever I think is my own business.\
\A fourteen-year-old boy shouldn't do such a damn "cute" thing./
-Hey, Daisuke. Look over at Hiwatari.-
+Huh? What for?+
-He's looking at you. Is that a sense of yearning in his eyes?-
+Are you trying to make me embarrassed? I'm busy with Harada-San right now…+
-Nope. Just stating what I see. Were you trying to be cute back there? A boy your age shouldn't be cocking his head, looking adorable.-
+This coming from the Kaitou with a giant fanclub…+
"Dai-Chan! I sent out another warning letter! Come here!"
Daisuke groaned. As usual, Emiko was sending warning letters without telling Daisuke. However, being the loyal son he is, he walked over to his mom. "Here you go, Dai-Chan!" Daisuke looked at what his mom gave him: A picture of his latest crush, Harada Riku. He changed into Dark.
"Dark, tonight's target is the Onna no Ko no Namida. It's a pair with the Otoko no Ko no Namida that you stole last night. It's silver, and is a statuette of a teenage girl." Emiko informed the Kaitou.
"It's at the Nusumi Art Museum, right? Last night, the Otoko no Ko no Namida was calling to it."
"Yes. Be careful if there are any girls. Female tears will react violently with it, and the Otoko no Ko no Namida will react as well."
Flying to the Nusumi Museum, Dark gracefully landed inside through an open window (Why the window was open, I'll never tell. Plot hole.). In perfectly plain sight, the Onna no Ko no Namida. The strange thing was that there was no security system.
+Why is there no security system? That's weird…+
-Not many people know about the dangers of the Hikari artworks. It's really only the Niwas and the Hikaris that do. -
+But, there is a camera…+
"With. Cover the security camera." The wings flew over to the camera, and covered it. Dark quietly walked over to the art piece, and picked it up. As soon as he did, the lights in the museum went on, causing the Kaitou to go blind for a few seconds.
"Caught in the act, Dark." Satoshi entered the area that the artwork was in.
"Hmm…Ditched the girlfriend tonight? You're so cruel." Dark said mockingly. Satoshi rolled his eyes in disbelief.
Just as Satoshi was about to run at Dark to capture him, he fell to the ground in pain. Pure white feathers flew around him. Dark stepped back, and pulled out a black feather.
+Is Krad coming out? +
-What the hell does it look like, it's raining feathers inside? Of course Krad is coming out! But, he's coming out on his own. He could kill Hiwatari if he keeps persisting…-
The blond stood up, and glared at his other self. "It wasn't easy trying to stay in last night. Now, I can finally kill you, Dark." Krad said. It sounded kind of sweet. If Krad wasn't out to kill Dark, it might have been.
"Sorry, Krad, you'll have to kill me on another day." Dark replied back as he leaped up to the window. With flew over to Dark, and landed on his back. He then leaped backwards into the air, and flew in the night.
After he was flying for a while, Dark looked behind him. Krad was following close behind, and was ready to attack. Dark wasn't prepared, and tried to fly away as fast as he could.
+Why are you flying so fast, Dark?+
-Many reasons. One, if Krad uses too much magic, Hiwatari could die. Two, any attack could damage me, and, believe me; I don't plan to have my body ruined any time soon. - Daisuke rolled his eyes. His ego was too large…not even celebrities on TV had that big of an ego…
Of course, Krad didn't care about Dark. Well, he would care if some one had killed him, because that was his job. Krad's only focus was to kill Dark…or to capture him.
/Stop it, Krad!\
\If I do this, then Dark will finally be gone, and this body will be mine./
/I won't let you!\
Despite what his Tamer said, Krad began throw feathers at Dark.
Dark, upon noticing this, began to dodge, spinning left and right. "Krad, Stop! Do you want your Tamer to die!?" Dark shouted at him.
"What I do with this body is my own business, Kaitou. It has nothing to do with you!" Krad started to throw more feathers with more magical power in them. As Dark dodged, he took a second to look at Krad: He was getting extremely worn out, his breathing getting heavier.
-See, Daisuke. Look at him. If this continues, there is a very high chance that Hiwatari will die. -
+What can we do?+
-…Nothing. At this rate, all we can do is hope that Hiwatari regains control.- Daisuke decided not to say anything unless it was necessary. All he could do was watch.
Dark continued to avoid attacks, while Krad kept attacking. However, Krad was really hitting the limit. Dark knew that the limit was almost hit. After all, Krad's goals were to capture him and claim the Hikari body. At this rate, he might never come back again, since Satoshi was the last Hikari, almost worrying the Kaitou.
As Krad threw one more feather, he instantly froze up, and began to fall from the sky. He changed back into Satoshi mid-fall. "Hiwatari!!" Dark shouted. Or was it? Dark flew down, and caught Satoshi. "He feels cold…" said Dark. However, his eyes were red. Daisuke had gained control, somehow.
-Daisuke, do you know what happened?-
+No…why did we change places?+
-I don't know. Hold on a sec.- Dark took a second to think about his Sacred Maiden…
Did you just think about who I think you did?+ Daisuke asked, confused. Did he see…?
-No! You're just imagining things!- Dark shouted back.
Daisuke continued to float to the ground, holding Satoshi. "We have to get him to the hospital!!"
"I wonder where Hiwatari-Kun is today…"
Daisuke's head turned to where the voice came from. Of course, the question belonged Risa. "Risa, why do you even care?"
"Is there something wrong with me caring, Riku?" Riku gave Risa a glare, rolled her eyes, and replied back, "I though you were all about 'Dark-San!' " She said in a mocking tone.
Daisuke sighed. It took him until midnight to make sure that Satoshi was registered into the hospital. And then, when he got home, Emiko panicked about how late he arrived, and without the artwork. Daisuke decided to let Satoshi win today, and let him "retrieve" the stolen artwork back from the Kaitou.
When school was over, Daisuke walked to the hospital. Last night, after he left, Satoshi was in critical condition. Hopefully, he would now be downgraded to stable condition. Key word, hopefully.
When he arrived, he asked what room Hiwatari Satoshi was in, and was somewhat glad to hear that he was in the intensive care unit, currently in serious condition. Maybe…there was still a chance. When he arrived, the nurse protested that Satoshi was not ready for visitors, and that he was sleeping, but the doctor, who was there as well, said that Daisuke was the one who brought him in last night, and was granted special permission. The doctor and nurse left the two boys there.
"Hey, Hiwatari-Kun. It's good to see that you're doing slightly better."
Silence. The only sound came from all of the machines.
"I see that the police force took the Onna no Ko no Namida back to the Nusumi Museum."
Silence.
Daisuke sighed. Obviously, there was going to be no way that Satoshi was going to respond. He placed his hand on top of Satoshi's, as a gesture for saying, "Get better soon."
After much deliberation, Daisuke decided to tell the Harada twins about Satoshi. He didn't give them all of the details, just that he was in the hospital.
"We have to visit him!" Risa proposed.
"That's probably not the best thing to do right now, Harada-San. He's still unconscious, so…"
"That was yesterday! He should be awake today!!"
"Risa, Niwa-Kun's right. If he's unconscious, then we probably don't want to bother him." Riku said, siding with Daisuke.
Risa pouted. "He's our classmate, and Niwa-Kun's friend. We should at least try!" she rebelled.
The three went into the hospital, Risa carrying a bouquet of flowers. Daisuke went to reception, where he got the report.
"Hiwatari Satoshi is still in serious condition, but is awake and able to see visitors. He's in the same room as yesterday." The receptionist told Daisuke. "Arigatou." Daisuke replied back. He went back to the girls, and led them to the room that Satoshi was in.
The doctor was finishing up tests when he saw Daisuke and the girls come in. "Ah, Niwa-Kun. Welcome back." Upon hearing the redhead's name, Satoshi turned his head to the door. The doctor took his leave.
"Hi, Hiwatari-Kun." Risa said, as she placed the flowers in a vase she found on the bedside table. Both Daisuke and Riku took seats in the room.
"Hello, Harada-San." Satoshi said through the mask on his face.
"Niwa-Kun told us what happened to you. He said that he found you on the ground, and brought you here." Riku said.
"Yeah. That's what happened." Satoshi agreed. Since the Haradas didn't know about Dark and Krad, they just left it like that.
The four talked for a while, until it was time for dinner. The twins left, but Daisuke stayed behind. "But won't your mom get worried? After all, she might have a job for you to do."
"No, I told her that I was going to see a friend, and maybe stay through dinner." The nurse came in with the food, and requested that Daisuke should at least get something from the cafeteria downstairs.
The next day at the hospital, the entire place was buzzing.
"Did you see that boy in intensive care?" "The blue-haired one? Yes, I did!" "Kyaa!!" The nurses squealed. Daisuke sighed, 'More people in the Satoshi Fan Club.'
However, that didn't surprise him. What did was what happened when he got there:
Daisuke's entire class was there.
Saehara took pictures, as did other newspaper club members, much to Satoshi's chagrin. The fangirls decorated his room, and were distressed about their idol was stuck in the hospital. Even those that were part of neither group were there, mostly just watching the baseball game on the television.
"Niwa-Kun! What took you?" Risa noticed the redhead in the doorway. She grasped his hand, and tried to bring Daisuke into the fun. However, Daisuke stopped partway through.
"Why is our entire class here?" Daisuke asked, very upset.
Risa gave a confused look, and smiled. "Well, everyone was worried about Hiwatari-Kun, so I told them that he was in the hospital. I brought them here." Daisuke glared at the younger Harada.
"You told everyone where Hiwatari-Kun was?"
"Yeah! If Riku and I were allowed to know, I thought that everyone else should too."
Daisuke never felt so much anger in his life. He should have never told Risa about Satoshi. Riku, maybe, but not Risa. He grabbed a vase, and threw it on the ground, causing glass, water, and flowers to lay shattered and strewn on the floor. Everyone stopped what they were doing, and looked at Daisuke.
"This is not some kind of party!" Daisuke shouted. "Hiwatari-Kun could still potentially die, and here you all are, throwing a party! All of you get out!!"
The people looked at Daisuke, a look a disappointment in their eyes. Slowly they started to leave the room. Daisuke passed Saehara, and stole the camera, like the thief he is. After Saehara left, Daisuke showed Satoshi that Saehara didn't have his camera, causing Satoshi to smile.
"Sorry about that. I didn't know that everyone was going to come." Daisuke apologized. He began to clean up his mess.
"I'm glad that you got them to leave. I really only want one person to visit me." Satoshi said, as he looked Daisuke's way. The redhead blushed, knowing who he meant.
"But, what about your father?" Daisuke asked innocently, as he disposed the vase.
Satoshi clenched his fist on the sheet. "There's no way in hell he'll ever come. You're the only person who has really visited me since the accident."
The television on in Satoshi's room was still on, and the news had something that neither boy wanted to hear. The newsperson, Yuki, was on the screen. "Kaitou Dark has posted a new warning letter. The note reads as follows: 'Due to an accident a few nights ago, I will once again steal the Onna no Ko no Namida from the Nusumi Museum at ten o'clock tonight.' The police have already set up here, and are waiting for the arrival time."
"Mou…" Daisuke groaned. "Mom sent another letter without me knowing…"
After leaving the hospital to prepare for the theft, Daisuke's cell phone rang.
'It's Riku-San.' "Moshi-moshi?"
"Niwa-Kun? It's Riku. Sorry about what Risa did. I told her not to do it, but…"
"Yeah, don't worry. Anyways, she probably hates me right now. I yelled at her, and the entire class."
"Sorry again. Do you want to go somewhere to hang out for a little bit?"
"Gomen, but I have to go home."
"Oh. Okay. See you at school tomorrow. Ja."
"Ja."
"Ha! Too easy!" Dark exclaimed as he flew home, Onna no Ko no Namida in his hands.
While Daisuke would say something, he remained silent. Dark took notice, and also stayed silent. He then took notice of Risa standing on the balcony of her house, waving at Dark. -Sorry, Daisuke, but I think I'll say hi to Risa quickly. Seeing me might brighten her day. - The redhead remained silent.
Risa's smile widened when she saw Dark land on the balcony. "Oh, Dark-San! Thank you so much for stopping by!" She said, instantly clasping herself onto his right arm, forcing Dark to carry the artwork in his left arm. Dark pretended to enjoy this, but in reality, he disliked fangirls clasping on and not letting go. However, he did have an image to uphold…
"Please, come inside, and have something to eat!"
'I don't think I'll be staying long if you made the food, Risa…' Dark thought, but to be polite, "I'd be honored to."
However, Riku just came in to say good night to Risa, as soon as Risa and Dark came in. "Risa! What is the pervert doing in our house?!"
"Be nice, Riku. He's a guest."
"He's a thief, Risa. He could steal something."
"He won't steal anything!"
"Yes, he will!"
Risa kept persisting that Dark wouldn't do anything wrong, but Riku eventually just gave up. "I just don't want to see him at all!" she grumbled as she walked to her bedroom.
"Actually, I think that it would be better if I didn't stay, Risa." Dark said, slowly walking away.
"You can't!" Risa shouted. "Riku's just jealous, because you're famous, and her boyfriend isn't." Tears began to swell up in her eyes, and she ran up to Dark.
Fortunately, Dark remembered about the Onna no Ko no Namida, and avoided her embrace. Risa landed on the ground.
However, as she fell, some tears did hit the artwork, and it started to glow. "Shimatta!" Dark swore as he pulled out a feather, trying to seal its powers. Risa merely blinked, the tears stopped flowing.
The spirit of a young, teenage girl rose out of the artwork. She had mid-length black hair, and silver-colored eyes. She wore a simple white dress and heels. Upon being released, she flew out the balcony doors. Dark summoned With, and he flew after the girl. Risa attempted to follow, but couldn't go much further than the edge of the balcony.
The girl flew effortlessly in the night sky without need of wings, while Dark was having trouble to keep up. It didn't surprise him when the girl went into Daisuke's house. He remembered what Emiko said:
"…Female tears will react violently with it, and the Otoko no Ko no Namida will react as well."
As Dark flew onto Daisuke's bedroom balcony, With flew onto Daisuke's bed (where With returned to bunny-form, and went to sleep), and Dark went down the stairs, and into the basement. There, the Onna no Ko no Namida gently placed her arms around the Otoko no Ko no Namida, causing it to shine the same light the she shone at the twin's house. Like her, a teenage boy rose out of it. He had white hair, just past his shoulders, tied into a low ponytail. He had copper-colored eyes, and wore a black, short-sleeved button shirt, black pants, and black shoes. Upon noticing his freedom, he gave the Onna no Ko no Namida an embrace. The two parted after some time, and looked at Dark.
The girl spoke first, "You're Dark, right? From the Hikari artwork Kokuyoku?"
Dark nodded.
The boy spoke next, "You're here to seal us, aren't you?"
Another nod.
The two looked at each other, and knew what was next. "There's one thing we want to do, and thank our creators." Said the girl.
"There's only one left, and he's in the hospital." Dark said to the two.
"We know." Said the boy. "We want to say good-bye as well."
Dark held his breath. "So…Hiwata- no, Hikari Satoshi is going to die?"
The two artworks nodded.
At the hospital, Daisuke led the two artworks to Satoshi's room. However, the nurse and doctor refused to leave the room. Satoshi asked for them to leave for about ten minutes, which they reluctantly did.
Now it's time, I fear to tell
I've been holding it back so long
But something strange deep inside of me is happening
I feel unlike
I've ever felt
And it's makin' scared
That I may not be what I (think I am)
"Hikari-Sama, thank you for creating us, the Otoko no Ko no Namida and the Onna no Ko no Namida." Satoshi glared wearily looked at the two.
"You both were released. How come?"
The Onna no Ko no Namida answered, "The tears of a girl in love."
"Hikari-Sama, we honestly do thank you and your family for creating us, but now we must say good-bye." Said the Otoko no Ko no Namida. The two bowed deeply to Satoshi, and slowly dissolved into silver and copper light particles, leaving the two boys alone.
What of us, what do I say
Are we both from a different world
Cos every breath that I take, I breathe it for you
I couldn't face my life without you
And I'm so afraid. There's nothing to comfort us
What am I, if I can't be yours
"I'm sorry, Niwa-Kun." Satoshi said. "I'm sure you already know what's going to happen to me." Daisuke nodded slowly, the tears swelling up in his eyes, but not falling. He wrapped his arms around the hospitalized boy, giving Satoshi a bit of a shock, but he returned the embrace. Daisuke tried to separate from the hug, but as he gently went back, Satoshi took advantage of the moment, and pressed his lips against the other boy's. Daisuke, slightly taken aback, but he deepened the kiss, tears rolling down his cheeks.
I don't sleep, don't feel a thing
And my senses have all but gone
Can't even cry from the pain, can't shed a tear now
I realize
We're not the same
And it's makin' sad
Cos we can't fulfill our dream (in the life)
The two separated after what felt like infinity. Satoshi leaned back into the bed, and closed his eyes. "Sayonara, Daisuke." he said in a whisper. Daisuke kept holding Satoshi's hand, tears still falling like a waterfall.
So I must, let us break free
I can never be what you need
If there was a way, through the hurt
Then I would find it
I'd take the blows. Yes I would fight it
But this is the one. Impossible dream to live
What am I, if I can't be yours.
The heart pulse machine went into a monotonous beep.
A/N: …Don't flame me. It's crucial.
Anyways, the song:
"Thanatos -If I Can't Be Yours-". It's the Main Theme for "The End of Evangelion" movie.
Mire- You can find this song on the "Evangelion -The Day of Second Impact-".
LVT- Well…Part 2 should be up quickly, unless my beta gets her hands on this and decides to force me to repost...
LVT (and Sumire) out!
