--That night Risa lay down on her bed. She had been going to bed very early for the past year or so. This was probably because there was nothing else to do. That and she always loved sleeping because it meant she could dream even more in depth then any other time. She lay awake for a while, and finally closed her eyes. She immediately began thinking of Dark. It had been a long time since she had imagined him so in depth. It was complete serenity. She was thinking of their first kiss. Only this time she pulled away after and his eyes flashed black. They were soulless. His beautiful purple oceans of eyes had disappeared and along with them Risa's oasis. His smile stretched wide across his face and his hair turned black and his figure became shady. Risa ran forward and embraced his. Holding on to him as a tear ran down her eye. She wanted him back. She couldn't let him leave her again. His fingernails grew into claws and he grabbed onto risa trying to break her off. She held him tightly and looked up into his fierce, empty eyes. He threw her off and she slid across the floor. Her head smashed against the wall. He walked over to her as she was struggling to sit up. Tears running down her eyes made his smirk even bigger. He bent over as if to kiss her and tilted his head to the side. His lips were barely touching her ear as he whispered.
"You were never anything but a stupid fan girl. Why don't you just give it up? I don't love you. I never will. You disgust me, you are totally pathetic."
Her eyes were swelling with tears. He didn't even look into her face. He just turned and started to walk away. She then realized that this was not her dark. It could never be. This was the dark that everyone wanted her to believe he was.
"Never!" Risa screamed as she got up. "I don't believe you, dark"
He was beginning to fly off, not even calling for wiz. Risa ran after him. He flew off the side of the building. Risa jumped and reached out to grab him. She caught his shirt and pulled him down a bit. He didn't even acknowledge her. It was like he didn't even know she was there.
"Dark!" she cried in agony. "Please dark, please just…" She couldn't think of anything to say. In a whisper she muttered, "I'm so sorry, I never meant to fall in love you, but I do love you and always will." She let go of his shirt and fell to the sea.
She jumped up in her bed sheets, gasping for air. Her pillow was damp with tears. They were still streaking down her face.
"That wasn't him." She said out loud to herself.
"That could never be him"
She looked to the side of her bed, where her clock was. It was 2:00 am. She dare not go back to sleep, how could she. She just sat in her bed staring at the wall.
"I can't take this anymore" she said to herself.
Risa got up and turned on her television. Her eyes widened to the shock that was on the news. Was it a rerun? How ironic. Her VCR was replaying the first time she saw dark. That night she was watching the news. She sat there, wrapping her arms around her knees, like she had when she saw this before. It was like she was back at that night. There was a certain misty feeling in her room. A familiar Aura.
She heard a creak from the attic floor. She new someone was up there. She opened her door slowly and peaked her head into the hallway. Making sure it was clear; she headed down the hall slowly. Her house looked a lot creepier at night. She finally got to the stairway and slowly crept up the stairs. As she passed by riku's room, risa could hear her sister snoring loudly. Risa laughed silently to herself, and then heard another creek from the attic. She was at the end of the hallway. She began walking but those lonely stairs to the attic door. She heard a loud thud. She was surprisingly calm, not at all afraid of what was up there. She had no fear of dying, for what was there for her to live for. That was a little over dramatic but it was the truth. She got to the door and opened the door fast. It hit the wall as it swung open. She was slightly disappointed but at the same time very excited to see daisuke on the floor.
"Risa!"
"Daisuke? What are you doing here?"
"I'm sorry, its just I wanted to surprise you but I didn't want your sister to know I was here, but by the time I arrived it was already to late, then I saw your light on so I thought I would sneak up into the attic."
"Silly daisuke. I've missed you so much!" She said as she ran up and gave him a hug. She felt a lot better knowing he was here, but she wondered for how long.
"Daisuke why are you here?"
"It's a very long story and I can't exactly tell you yet but I am here and I am staying."
"Why? Why can't you tell me?"
"Its not that you won't find out, its just I'm not the right one to tell you."
"That doesn't make any sense; you're the perfect one to tell me."
"Don't make it a big deal. You don't even seem to be happy that I'm back. Come on, I brought some stuff back with me to show you. And I got you a gift."
Daisuke and risa both sat on the floor while daisuke opened his backpack. He pulled out a box with a pink bow on it and handed it to risa. She opened the box to find a brand new set of tarot cards.
"Thanks daisuke! You really shouldn't have, now I feel bad I haven't gotten anything for you."
"Don't be silly, you haven't changed a bit risa, you know I wouldn't have wanted you to get me anything anyway." Daisuke said with a smile.
"You haven't changed either daisuke; you're still the same sweet, clumsy kid I have always loved." They both laughed at the clumsy part because they both knew it was very true.
"Daisuke?"
"Yes risa, what is it?"
"I need to tell you something, I think something..."
Risa was cut off by the sound of footsteps coming up the stairs.
"Risa? Risa? Are you up here? Riku said as she was slowly walking up the stairs
Risa's eyes grew wide as she looked at daisuke, who looked like he had just died. Daisuke didn't want riku to know he was back, at least not yet.
"Daisuke, go, hurry" Risa said as she got to her feet.
"But... you needed to never..."
"Go now, we will talk again."
"Alright, bye" She said as he hugged her goodbye and climbed out the window.
"Oh shoot he forgot his backpack" Risa said to herself as she hurried and picked it up and tossed it out the window.
"Risa what are you doing up here again?"
"Sleepwalking?" risa said.
"Well you left your television on and it woke me up"
"Oh I'm sorry riku, I'll make sure to keep it off from now on, I promise." Risa said as she took her sisters hand and hurried out of the room.
