Author Note: Hey! I'm sorry this chapter took so long to get out! I have an excuse, really I do! You see, my computer became infected somehow and I had to have it fixed by the people. In order to fix it the people had to delete everything on my computer. And then the keyboard was broken so I got a new keyboard, then my internet didn't work, then I didn't have Microsoft word- Argh! Well it's fixed now! The only problem is, a bunch of stuff was deleted. Including the first chapter of that story I gave you a preview for last time. It may take a while to write that. I wrote have of this while my teacher was lecturing (on God, no less) and the rest at like midnight. Whatever here it is.

Disclaimer: No, I don't own DNAngel. I hope you've figured that out by now.

Chapter Five

Dark Revelations (with a few fluffy moments)

Daisuke flopped down on Satoshi's bed and sighed. Ever since they had seen Krad, Daisuke's head had been perfectly silent. No singing, no innuendos, not even a light snoring. The silence felt miserable.

Dark? He said, Please say something. Anything.

Silence.

Daisuke turned over and lay his head on the pillow. Dark's depression was bringing him down.

At the feeling of a touch on his back, Daisuke looked up to meet Satoshi's blue eyes.

"Is he still not talking?" Satoshi asked.

"Not a word," Daisuke moved so that he was laying his head on the other boy's lap. Satoshi ran his fingers lightly through Daisuke's red hair.

"Well," he said, "If he's interested, I found some information on his friend Krad."

Krad? Dark spoke up for the first time in a while.

"He's interested," Daisuke said, sitting up.

Satoshi pulled out and internet print-out, "He has a website. "

"What's the site about?"

"He's a mercenary for hire. Specialty is demons. It has information on his rates and other things of the sort. It also states that he currently can't be contacted due to job."

"Any idea of what that job is, Dark?" Daisuke asked, speaking out loud for Satoshi's benefit.

Well, kind of…

"…"

Ok, stop brow-beating me! His job is to take me…

"He's supposed to take you?"

He's supposed to capture the demon of the seal. He doesn't know it's me, though. He tried to find me at the house but when he realized I wasn't there he…left.

"So he just left? No note or anything?"

Uh, yeah. He just left. Then someone else came and burned the house down. With Krad not being involved. At all.

"Oh. So why does he need you so bad?"

Satoshi coughed, "What kind of conversation are you two having?" ((AN: Satoshi can't hear Dark, so the conversation sounds a bit odd…))

"We were wondering why anyone would want to put a bounty out on Dark."

"Actually, I think I can answer that."

"Really? How do you know?"

"Remember when I left for a bit after you told me about Dark?"

"Yeah…"

"I went to an occult bookstore," he pulled out a book that had seen better years. It had fragile, yellowed pages and was practically in pieces. The words, "Equus Iacet" ((AN: it's midnight right now. This phrase seems amusing at the moment. In the morning I will think myself and idiot.)) were on the cover. Opening the book, Daisuke made a profound revelation.

"Wah? I can't read this at all!"

"It's in Latin," Satoshi explained, "It's about demons."

Like me?

"Like Dark?"

"Yes, like Dark." He continued, "You see all living things give off energy. It's a natural phenomenon. But when you seal a demon, most of the energy becomes trapped inside, along with the demon. Even if Dark takes over your body temporarily, most of his power remains trapped inside you."

"So what happens to the energy?"

"It builds up. In a couple of years, hundreds in Dark's case, you can have a massive amount of spiritual energy stored up inside."

…I don't get it.

"Dark doesn't get it."

"In laymen's terms? You're a giant battery."

Huh? Oh….that's not good…

"No, not good," Daisuke said. "Now what should we do?"

I need to talk to Krad!

"What?! No!!"

He won't hurt me, Daisuke

"You really like him, don't you?"

…yeah. I really do."

Daisuke nodded and turned to Satoshi, "Dark is going to take over so he can talk to Krad."

"No."

"No?"

"If Krad hurts Dark, or tries to extract him…you'll be hurt as well."

"Even if Krad does try to hurt Dark, which I don't think he will, Dark wouldn't put me in danger."

"You better come back alright."

"I will."

Are you done with the sappy lover's dialogue?

In a moment, Daisuke thought to Dark. He leaned up and pressed his lips to Satoshi's. Satoshi wrapped his arms around Daisuke and deepened the kiss. Daisuke let out a little moan as he was pushed back on the bed-

Hey, hey, hey!! Not in front me!!

Daisuke pushed Satoshi off, "Sorry, Dark's ruining the moment."

Satoshi nodded, "I'll do more research. Be safe."

Daisuke smiled and nodded, "Don't worry."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Krad lay back in bed with a smile on his face. He had never been this infatuated with anyone before. Just the thought of Dark made him warm all over his body- but in one spot particular…

He was shaken from his thoughts when he heard the door creak open. He looked up to find Dark standing in the doorway.

"Hey there," Dark smiled.

Krad threw off his covers and jumped up to hug the demon. "What are you doing here?"

"I need to talk to you."

"About what?"

"Well…" Suddenly Dark blushed. Krad thought it was adorable.

"Something wrong?" Krad asked.

"Um…why are you…uh…naked?" Dark said, looking anywhere but down.

Krad smirked. He had been so happy to see the demon that he had forgotten that he was in the buff. ((A.N.: I bet that makes you all happy. You little perverts…))

"I left my pajamas at home," he explained. Not that I regret It, he added silently.

"Oh, could you put something on?" Dark said, still trying to keep his eyes from wandering.

Still smirking, Krad went to the dresser and pulled on a pair of pants. He sat down on the bed and gestured for Dark to join him, which he did.

"So," Krad asked. "What do you need to tell me?"

Dark let out a breath. This was it. The moment of truth. Or possibly, the moment of death.

"You know that demon you're looking for? The demon of the seal? I'm it."

Krad blinked, "Huh?"

"I'm the demon of the seal."

"Isn't the demon of the seal supposed to be, you know, in a seal?"

"I am sealed. I'm sealed inside of a member of the Niwa clan. Daisuke."

"Oh, that explains why you weren't at the shrine," Krad remarked, catching on.

Dark nodded and said nothing. He watched Krad who appeared to be pondering. He hesitantly reached over and grabbed his hands with his own. "So, what are you going to do?"

"What am I going to do?" Krad asked, "Well, it's already done."

"Huh?" Dark looked down and found that his wrists were handcuffed, "Krad?!"

Krad smirked at him, "I do believe I've won."

Ending note: sorry this is short. I need to sleep. This is a horrible place to end the chapter! You're all going, "Wait! What happens next?!" Hmm, maybe that's a good place to end… Oh well! Krad's superwonderfulsmell to be revealed next chapter! By the way, Leorio is yodeling in my ear right now. I thought you should all know.
