Hi! This is a short fic about Hikari and what could happen if she was returned to the dark ocean...

This fic is dedicated to my dear friend Dyani and all the other Daisuke nuts out there. ^_^

Hikari No Tenshi (Hikari's angel)
By Nimue


She stands on the edge of the dark ocean, the wind throwing her short brown hair in all directions. Clouds darker than night loom in the sky, threatening to burst at any second. Thunder rumbles loudly, and waves crash like warriors in the endless sea of despair.
*I have to beat this...*
She takes a step into the ocean. The water is so horribly cold that she is paralyzed. The wind blows even harder, whispering cruelly in her ear.
Suddenly the clouds above her burst, completely drenching her in water nearly as cold as the ocean she stands in. Scared brown eyes follow lightning as it slices through the sky like a jagged knife. Almost deafening thunder ensues quickly after.
*Where is he?*
The water seems to call her, beckoning her to forget everything and drown herself in the darkness in her heart. She takes another small step forward, unsure. The frigid water rushes up to her ankles, wanting to completely take her in.
*He saved me last time I was brought here...*
Yet there is no sign of the angel who watches over her. The rain continues to pour, seeming as if it will never end.
*Takeru...I can't beat this without you...*
But the rain is too hard, the ocean too rough. The angel fears to tread here now. She realizes this, and sinks to her knees in the water, all hope lost.
*He won't come and save me...*
The rain washes her tears away into the ocean which rises even nearer. Another bolt of lightning tears through the sky as if it would destroy it.
She stands again, and takes two more steps into the unforgiving ocean. The freezing water is past her knees now.
*I'm giving up...I don't have the courage to try anymore…The darkness will always be stronger...*
With these unspoken words, the ocean rises to her slim waist.
*Goodbye...*
She doesn't feel the rain pounding her anymore, doesn't notice the icy water devouring her. Her ears are deaf to the thunder that shakes the sky. It doesn't matter now. Her angel has forsaken her.
She is about to be totally consumed by the ocean when she feels strong hands wrap themselves around her.
*My angel has finally come...*
But she senses something different. The body that presses itself against hers and pulls her back to shore does not belong to her angel.
She is out of the water now, shivering on the beach, the unfamiliar arms wrapped around her to keep her warm. She tilts her head back and looks into the face of her savior. Concerned yet happy brown eyes look back at her, slightly covered by wet hair that would usually be spiked. As always, the precious goggles rest on his head.
"Daisuke..."
He holds her closer. "Shh. You're OK now. I'm here for you."
"But...why..."
A soft smile spreads across his face. "I care about you too, you know. And I will always be there for you. Even when your angel isn't."
She smiles and relaxes in his arms. The rain has stopped now; the ocean is no longer fearsome. She lies there contentedly in his strong arms, and a rainbow extends across the sky.
She has truly found her angel.
