Moonlight Curse: Black Feathers
2nd chapter
(The Commemoration of Something because of an Constellation)
Dark was shocked when he heard that Daisuke can't remember anything.
Emiko Niwa entered the room.
"Dark? What is the matter with him?" Emiko asked, with a conscious expression.
Emiko looked at Daisuke.
Daisuke comforted her mom.
"Mom, I am sorry, but I can't remember anything…." Daisuke said.
He was in despair, which he was neither worried nor frightened.
Kosuke, Daisuke's father, came inside on the room, together with his grandfather, Daiki Niwa, to know what's really happening to Daisuke.
"Father, there's something weird with Daisuke today…." Emiko said.
Daiki went on to Daisuke.
"My grandson, you can't remember anything? Even a single memory?" Daiki asked.
"No…I can't remember…." Daisuke said, in a frightening voice.
He was too worried.
Dark remembered an urban tale about a certain spell, The Horugunso…
A special ancestor of him told him this urban tale.
"What is that Horugunso?" Dark asked.
The man coughed.
"The Horugunso, or the spell of the moon's magnificence, is one of the most dangerous spell…." The man told.
"It happens without certain activation, the moon can activate it by itself. It happens when the Black Feather or White Feather of a certain angel and the Cherry Blossoms be conflicted with the moonlight."
"After that, a huge ray of light will blind everyone who will sight it. After that, the angel will fade and the mortals will collapse. And when the sun shines, the spell will be a curse. The effects will be amnesia or swapping of feelings." The man explained.
"Well, if somebody was conflicted with that spell er, curse; is there any possible thing to deactivate it?" Dark asked.
"Well, who knows? It was just an urban tale so don't expect that it will happen on reality, okay?" The man replied.
He coughed and disappeared.
"I know the reason. Daisuke-kun…." Dark said.
"What is it, Dark Mousy?" Emiko asked.
"According to an urban tale, it was a spell or curse of a certain artwork. Otherwise, it was called Horugunso, the moon's curse…." Dark explained.
"According on the tale, someone who was conflicted by that spell will have amnesia or will swap feelings with others…" Dark continued.
"So that means….Daisuke was conflicted by the curse…." Daiki said.
"You're right, grandfather…." Dark said.
Daiki became worried for Daisuke.
"Daisuke-kun, how about walking outside?" Emiko asked.
"Good Idea…." Daiki said.
As well, Daisuke walked around and get some fresh air. He gazed up on the sky, wandering on the clouds, gazing at the birds that are flying northeast. He also gazed at the waves that rush from the ocean.
Daisuke acts differently from the way he acted before, he was sort of, someone like a stranger. Dark noticed it. He began to wonder. Several thoughts come on his mind that makes him bother and worry for his pal. Well, who won't worry if his or her pal is on critical condition?
Daisuke became silent since he got amnesia. He was acting like a stoic kid. An insensitive, heartless and mindless Daisuke. Dark didn't saw him like that before.
Daisuke smiled but then he started to cry. He kicked the water, making him wet.
Eventually, Riku saw him and called him:
"Daisuke-kun!" Riku said.
Daisuke turned back and was surprised when he saw Riku.
He smiled and Dark noticed one thing again. Dark noticed that Daisuke was delighted and amazed when he saw Riku.
"Humph…." Dark grunted.
He was shocked when he heard himself saying it. He started wondering.
"Don't say, we swapped our feelings?" Dark thought.
He slapped himself.
"Dark, what's happening to you?" Dark thought.
And then Risa came near to him.
When Dark turned around, he blushed when he saw Risa, Riku's twin sister.
But he was again surprised of Risa's reaction. The old Risa seems to be obsessed with him but now she was avoiding him.
"Please, I beg of you, stay away from me…." Risa said.
Risa ran away, shrouding in sadness.
She was disappointed when she saw Daisuke and Riku together holding hands….
She felt jealous and that make her hasten away.
She was crying though.
Dark's explanation was real. They swapped feelings. Riku comes to love me while Daisuke comes to love Riku. Risa comes to love Daisuke and Dark comes to love Risa. Still, the love quadrangle still stands out.
Riku was surprised of Daisuke's reaction.
"Uhm, Daisuke-kun, are you okay?" Riku asked.
"I….I am okay…." Daisuke replied, with a shy voice.
"Oh I am glad that you're fine….Want to go around?" Riku asked.
"It's my pleasure!" Daisuke replied.
Dark was still watching upon them. Still, he was hurt because the one he obsesses with hated her.
"Oh, what the hell! I had the worst luck among them!" Dark thought.
When Riku turned around, she saw Dark standing still.
Riku came near to him and greeted him.
"Hello Dark!" Riku said.
She glanced at him.
"Uhm, hello." Dark greeted back.
Riku smiled.
"Riku-chan!" Daisuke called.
"Oh, Daisuke's calling you…." Dark exclaimed.
"Oh, yes, so I must go….Bye!" Riku said.
She went away.
"Riku Harada…." Dark exclaimed.
He looked around and saw a weeping Risa.
Dark comforted her just like what Risa did to him.
"Please even for a very short time, let me comfort you like this…." Dark said.
Risa was surprised.
"Away! Away!" Risa said.
To stop her, Dark gave her a white rose.
"Please, I am not that kind of man, Risa….." Dark said.
"Really?" Risa asked.
THEN THE NIGHT CAME ALONG...
"So you have enjoyed?" Dark asked.
Risa smiled.
"Who wouldn't?" Risa asked.
She glanced.
But when she looked down, she was disappointed.
She started to cry.
They landed on a certain spot. Dark comforted her.
"When you are sad and gloomy, I will be here!" Dark exclaimed.
Risa was surprised. She kissed Dark.
Riku saw them. She cried.
She turned around and saw Daisuke looking at her directly.
She began to cry. Tears rolled down from her eyes.
Daisuke comforted her.
"I don't want to see you crying, Riku-chan. I won't let that happen!" Daisuke exclaimed.
He gazed above and saw a constellation. He also saw the moon.
His mind stopped. Memories from the past began to bother him. His head ached.
He lay down.
"Daisuke! Daisuke!" Riku shouted.
Dark and Risa heard it. They hurriedly went to them.
When they arrive, they saw Daisuke, lying on the floor, holding its head.
Dark became nervous. He was tensioned.
"Daisuke, what's happening to you?" Dark thought.
That event made him bother again. He started wondering again. "What's happening to you Daisuke?"
Daisuke's memories began to applaud him. Daisuke kept shouting. He remembered a certain memory.
That memory was the time she broke up with Risa….
He stood up and told that he remembered something.
Dark was surprised. Did Daisuke's memory got back? What may be the possible reason?
"Now, Daisuke-kun, what do you remember?" Dark asked.
Risa and Riku began to worry too.
"I remember I broke up with a girl, with a long and brown hair, which makes me depress that much…And I remember that you was an angel who was my ally…" Daisuke said.
"Is that all?" Dark asked.
"Sorry but I can't remember anything. It's just it…." Daisuke replied.
Dark was surprised. What makes Daisuke remember that thing?
