Ch.7
Takato bit his lip. This wasn't good. It wasn't the first time he'd had a bad dream and woken up to darkness, but the darkness usually lessened after awhile.
He reached down to pull the covers over his head and discovered, to his considerable shock, that they weren't there.
he murmeredm and felt the space around him, hoping he had just fallen out of bed. No such luck.
Takato rubbed his eyes and opened them again, praying that he would wake up from this nightmare. He almost bit through his lip in horror when he noticed his hands were glowing. And his arms. And his legs.
Takato curled up in a little ball and closed his eyes. When I wake up, this better not be here.

Takato leapt to his feet, heart pounding. Something was coming towards him! Desperate for contact with anything, he raced towards the appoarching figure. Why is it glowing baclk? That's not possible in the dark, is it? I should turn back, but it looks so familiar though, like...
Takato skidded to a halt in front of her. What, why, how?!
Stop acting like a gibbering idiot, Takato, Rika paused, gathering herself for another attack, If you can help it. Takato gaped silently, the white glow around him increasing rapidly.
Rika slapped him and he froze. Stop it, freak. She took advantage of his immobile state to look him over with a critical eye.
The glow of innocence, Rika finally stated, It suits you Takato. That and happiness, she shuddered. What a disgusting emotion. Emotions are sickening things themselves, really. The black fire shrouding her limbs suddenly flared scarlet, and Rika laughed at the horrified expression on Takato's face.
What's wrong, sunshine? If you can't stand the heat, stay out of the fire! Rika walked away, her shameless laughter being absorbed by the darkness. But not before it reached Takato's ears. Oh my god. What have I done to her?
