There was a crash. Niwa Emiko looked up from whatever the crazy woman was doing. She went to Daisuke's room of which the noise originated and opened the door. The room was very dark with a creepy eerie-like glow to it. The redhead was in a corner, facing away from the door, hunched over and laughing in a diabolical manner.

"Dai-chan...?" she asked, unsure.

Her son immediately turned around and shouted, "Nothing! Go Away!" while trying to hide what was behind him.

Emiko hesitated before saying, "...I don't wanna know." She closed the door and went back to her crazy rituals and what-not.

/Well, I want to know. You're scaring me, Daisuke./

"I need complete silence!" Daisuke said freakily, already back to work. Dark was about to snap back when the younger exclaimed, "I'VE FINISHED! MWAHAHAHAHA!"

/...finished what, I'm afraid to ask/

"It is...MY LOVE POTION! HA!"

/And WHAT would you need THAT for/

The redhead clasped his hands together while his eyes got all shimmery and distant-like. "I'm gunna make Hiwatari-kun fall in love with me!"

Dark face faulted and, because he was in Daisuke's head, Daisuke's head slammed into the floor.

/WHAT/

"I realise that the effects will wear off eventually, but I hope, while I have Hiwatari-kun, that he will learn to love me for real!" The boy starts to kick his legs and beat his fists on the floor for no reason other than I didn't say he'd gotten up yet.

/...and how did you figure out all that.../

"It's all in that book that fell from the sky with all those other books that hit me in the head the day you thought the weird guy's prophecy came true and the world was starting to endlessly rain books. I decided to take it home while you were freaking out and conviniently not paying attention." The boy finally got up because I said so and went over to the book.

/The book you were destined to find because the author said so? ...huh...'A Wider Variety Of Evil Potions And Things Than That Other Book'/

"Yeah. Actually there was this one book called 'Witchcraft and Wizardry for those Complete Nerds who have No Lives Whatsoever and Must Spend their Time Brewing Little Harmless Concoctions to Feed to their Friends, Family, and/or Coworkers to Make Themselves Feel Better and More Loved' right next to it that I was gunna get instead, but this one had a prettier cover." He grinned widely. "Look at the pretty pink and purple design!" (generally I don't like those colors but I thought Daisuke clutching a pink and purple evil book was kinda funny.)

/...so you like the creepy kid? Why? Personally I don't think he's that good looking./

Daisuke glared at Dark, and because Dark was himself, he was glaring at himself. Which is kinda hard to do, just ask Daisuke.

/What do YOU know/ The redhead's voice echoed loudly in his own empty head. /You probably like GIRLS/

Dark said nothing so Daisuke dropped the subject and filled a big jug full of the glowing green liquid. "Hm. Maybe I should have bought a different color dye..." And luckily it was bright outside, so maybe nobody would see it glow.

He left his room and went into the kitchen with his jug to get a drink. "Making evil potions while laughing diabolically for hours straight sure makes you thirsty!" He set the jug down and got a drink. "Oh, I should get a bag to carry my poison- I mean potion!" The fourteen-year-old ran off and stupidly forgot his jug.

Just then Emiko came back into the room. "Making evil monster things from this evil book I found the day it was raining books and having them attack people for fun sure makes you thirsty! Oh, what's this?" Emiko stared at the jug. It stared back. They continued staring for a long time until Emiko's eyes dried out and fell out of her head. She picked them up, dusted them off, and stuck them back in her eye sockets. "Damn! I lost!"

Mad at her opponent, Emiko grabbed the jug and downed as much as she could swallow in one breath. She promptly passed out.

Daisuke finally found a bag. It was a big black beachbag that tied at the end and had a red maple leaf with two red bars on each side. Huh. Daisuke always wondered what that symbol was.

He was passing by the far corner of his room (which he now deemed his potion-making corner) and saw there were still some leftover ingredients. Enough to make...another jug.

"Oh well. I don't need anymore, really. A mere spoonful would make Hiwatari-kun mine for at least a week!"

The redhead was so happy. "But where to get rid of this...oh! Here, With! C'mere! Come eat the nice evidence- I mean poison- I mean...stuff! Yeah! C'mon"

He tried to pick up the white fluffball, but it freaked and climbed out the window that was conviniently open. "Oh well. Time to do some mischief! I mean-! ...oh, who am I fooling..."

Daisuke retraced his steps to the kitchen where he realised he left the jug, and paused when he saw his mother passed out on the floor. And a good portion of the potion gone. Oh shit.

He stared for a long time, in his mind screaming 'AAAAAAAAAH WHAT DO I DO?' (and hurting Dark's ears in the process) until he heard a faint noise, like maybe...his mom was waking up-!

Daisuke snatched the jug as fast as he could and ran out the front door. "I'm gettin the hell outta here!"

Outside, Daisuke calmed down (a little) and headed for Satoshi's house with his beloved jug. Or what was left of the jug.

"Hm...maybe I should have stayed and seen mom's reaction. What if it really is poison?"

/Dunno./

/Hey! Will YOU try it, Dark/

/HELL no/

"Aw, c'mon, pwease? I promise it's not poison!"'

/You just said-/

"I don't ever ask you for anything!"

/Yes you do! Just yesterday, you made me-/

"NOOOOOOOOOO just try it!" Daisuke got down on his knees and held up his clasped hands to the sky in a begging manner. A couple old ladies walked by, staring at the strange boy who seemed to be arguing with himself.

/...no./

"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!" The redhead cried. No, really cried, with tears and everything. "YOU'RE SO MEAN!"
