Disclaimer: Hope you guys are ready for a real shocker because the next chapter will make you guys go whoa! So here goes the next step in Daisuke's journey. Hehe (say YAY its finally here)

Chapter Six - Broken Hearts = Broken Bonds

It hurt. It hurt a lot. My insides felt as if they would just rib in two from the extremity of the pain. I knelt down as sweat poured down my face and to my horror, Dark too was writhing in agony. I was blinded by the pain when finally my mind went blank.

"Am I dead?" No. "Is it all over?" No. "O well. Just as long as she's okay then it doesn't matter." And that was it. Everything I did, everything I worked so hard to accomplish had seemed nothing more than a game. It was no mere coincidence that I met her. "As long as she's happy."

Once more I slipped away into nothingness. Time seemed to stand still for just a moment. A moment longer and it will all be over. As the pain began to fade away with every passing second. So that was it. The chains were never meant to just make Dark suffer. It was much more than that but the thought slipped from my mind as a strange rush covered my body and my very self went blank.

"Daisuke…" Who's there?

"Wake up." I can't.

"You have to. You have so much more to do." But…why am I here? Where am I?

"Don't worry about the little details. Its now time for you to choose. Who gets to stay and who gets to go? Will Dark continue to live or will you choose the maidens tears." What? What do you mean by that? Dark or the maiden tears? What are you talking about? Wait!

"WAIT!" I sat straight up to find myself in a room but it was really hard to see who's it was. I wouldn't be able to tell you if I was in my own room. It must have been around midnight for sure but it didn't matter where I was. I had to get out. I just had to.

CREAK.

My blood turned icy cold. Someone was in the room with me. I could hear the squeaky floorboards underneath their feet. Someone was definitely there. Get by the window and jump.

"Who's there?" Shut up you idiot! It's me Dark. But it couldn't be. Dark and I were separated and if he was back inside of me then the curse of the tears didn't work. But my excitement wore off in a second when a hand rested gently on my shoulder.

"Daisuke…" I knew that voice.

"Rei." A splash of water fell on my hand as I felt her lay her head on my shoulder. My heart began to pound inside me wildly. "Rei…Rei, what's wrong." I couldn't believe it. Rei was crying. But why. All I could think of at this moment was how to help her smile again. I couldn't change back. I refused to. If I do then Dark would probably cause more troubles. "Rei, please. I don't want to see you this way."

I turned to face her and wiped away her tears as she looked up at me. It was the first time I really noticed how sad she really looked. My face flushed as she leaned in closer to me and wrapped her arms around my waist. Her tears fell to the floor and like a river, it kept on running.

Finally, the moonlight shined into the dark room and to my disbelief the entire room was covered in crystals. Jewels that shimmered miraculously in the light and they were coming from Rei's tears. She had finally stopped crying and had fallen fast asleep as I slid her off me and walked over towards the window.

My face burned with shock and I knew Dark was going to take over soon. My heart was racing as I kept thinking of Rei. She was all over in my head. Rei's smile, Rei's laughter, Rei's kindness. How could I think ill of her as I heard Dark in the back of my head screaming (WHAT THE HELL! GET OUT OF THERE! KNOCK HER DOWN! IT'S A TRAP DAMMIT!) to me.

But it was true. Rei was on the enemies side. However my heart felt I couldn't be with her. She was after me and Dark and she was out to get us and bring us down.

"Ha…you're right. She's probably only acting. Well Dark. Let's find a way out of here." Now you're talking. I climbed up onto the ledge of the window and pulled myself onto the roof. It was peaceful outside. It was times like these that you could really see the beauty of nature.

I felt like a completely new person as I took a deep breath and placed my hands into my pockets.

"Well buddy. Where to?" And the next moment, Dark took over and we headed towards home. Bye Rei.

It was a long night and the stars hung high up in the sky. Just out of reach for us to touch but close enough for us to see. And the message from that woman. What did she mean by that? The maidens tears? And the more I thought about it, the more it reminded me of Rei. But things couldn't get any worse right. I mean now that Risa has her new boyfriend, Riku is in America, and Rei is our enemy. I have nothing to worry about with my true love situation right. It all seemed to fall into place as a heavy burden seemed to have been lifted when it got worse.

"Daisuke! I'm happy to have found you!"

"Wah…Riku!" Oh ya…Things just got worse.

Disclaimer: For those of you out there that aren't as dense as Daisuke is being here…Go Whoa because something big just happened. Will the so called "Dream" become a message for Daisuke's future? (I think so) and what is Riku doing. Has Daisuke given up! So stick around and find out more bout his life. Bye see you till then.
