Love Triangle

Chapter 4

Dark Emerges

"Risa?!" Daisuke repeated. Her hair is so beautiful. Oh, how I love the way it flows in the breeze. It shimmers and flows like a cascade. Her eyes twinkled lovelier than any star in the universe. Daisuke thought as soon as the word "Risa" left his mouth.

"Sorry, Daisuke. I've got to get to class. I'll talk to you later, okay?" Risa shouted, not even in sight. But Daisuke knew that Risa was talking. He never could forget her voice.

Suddenly Daisuke started to feel dizzy and wobbly. His vision started to blur. He felt his body being taken over. Akiko was still holding his hand, and walked, not even noticing that Daisuke was changing before her very eyes.

Oh great! Daisuke thought sarcastically. This is great! Now what? Akiko is going to ask me what's up and I'm going to have to tell her that I transform into a thief that steals valuable items. I'm going to have to sneak away.

Daisuke, now the infamous Dark Mousy, began to slowly slide away from Akiko. Covering one side of his face with his Geometry book, he decided that he had to leave before his secret was revealed.

"Uh, Akiko. Sorry, I have to leave for personal reasons. I'll call you tonight. Okay? Bye!" Daisuke ran off the campus as soon as he finished his sentence, leaving Akiko dazed and confused.

The pounding of his feet on the pavement was all that Dark Mousy could hear besides the beating of his own heart.

Why is does the Niwa family have to change into thieves? Why can't I be a normal 14 year old? Daisuke's thoughts surmounted Dark's.

Suddenly, a figure jumped from out of the sky causing Dark to stop in his tracks.

"Playing hooky, are you?" asked a familiar voice.

"Grandpa?!" Dark asked in a surprised tone. "What are you doing here? How did you find me? Don't you go to work or something like that? Does..." "Enough with the questions! Slow down." His grandpa interrupted. "Let's go home and talk, we're only a block away."

At home

"Ok Ok," his grandpa said in a relaxing tone. "Sit down right here and tell me why you're not in school."

As soon as Dark sat down. He instantly turned back into Daisuke. Daisuke sighed angrily and covered his head with his arms.

Lifting his head up. He suddenly burst. He couldn't take the pressure anymore. "Grandpa!! Why does this happen to me? I hate this. I don't know my true feelings anymore. If I think about Risa, I change into Dark. How come I wont change when I think about Akiko? She's my girlfriend after all!!"

"Oh. You have a little girlfriend now, eh?" Grandpa said looking at Daisuke quizzically.

"Yeah, I do." Daisuke blushed. "But that's not the point. Please answer my questions."

Taking a seat next to him. He explained everything. "I knew you were in some kind of danger. Or in a confused phase. I had a feeling. I don't know how to explain it. But that's how I found you. Second, You like Risa right? But you're going out with Akiko. So pretty soon you're going to change when you romantically think about both of them now."

"OH, WHAT??"

"Sorry son, but that's the way it is now. You have to find out who you like better, Risa or Akiko. Or should I say who you're in love with. And once you find that out, You might just stop changing into Dark Mousy. "

"Aw, man!!" Daisuke sighed.

Tomorrow. I'm going to put both of them to the test. I must write down what I'm going to do tomorrow.

"Bye, Grandpa. Thanks!"

"Where are you going, son?" His grandpa had asked chasing after him.

They both ran up the stairs and his grandpa was gasping for air. Daisuke ran in his room and shut the door. His grandpa opened the door and was ready to ask for an explanation, until he saw Daisuke at his desk, writing.
