Author note: I have written a lot of pathetically short chapters in my life but I must say that this is the most pathetically short one ever. It's not even a chapter, it's a like an interlude… Well, I'm home sick today and I haven't updated in months so I'm just putting this here. Another (longer) chapter should be up this weekend. I'm aiming for Friday but you know me.

Chapter Seven
Dark is gone!
"What should we do next?"
"Sit down and rest" Krad collapsed onto a park bench. Ever since they had woken up, Dark had insisted on dragging him all over town. Krad loved the little demon but there was only so much a mercenary can take.
Dark came over and sat down in his lap, "Come on Krad! Just a few more places?"
"We can go to as many places as you want just let me catch my breath for a moment. Here," he pulled some money out of his pocket and handed it to Dark, "Go get some ice-cream"
Dark grinned and kissed him before running off to the ice-cream stand.
Krad sighed. How were they going to work this out? He was with Dark today, but what about tomorrow? Dark would be relinquishing control to Daisuke and Krad would hardly be able to see the demon. Besides, Krad had a job. He couldn't work strictly in Japan.
His thoughts were interrupted by the now annoying sound of his cell phone.
"Why the hell is everyone calling me! I swear to God if this phone rings one more fucking time heads will roll!" he yelled into the receiver.
"My, aren't we vulgar?" Satoshi said dryly.
"Oh the bluenette," Krad frowned, recognizing the voice, "How did you get this number?"
"That's not important."
"No, but it's kind of creepy…"
Satoshi ignored him and continued, "Is Daisuke alright?"
"Dark is fine."
"Listen, I need you to tell me the name of your employer, the one who hired you for Dark."
"Doctor something…"
"Doctor what? Dark and Daisuke's lives may depend on what you remember."
"What do you mean?"
"What's his name?"
"Lanson. Doctor Herald Lanson. I know he works for a privately funded lab in Japan but that's all I know."
"Shit! Where's Daisuke! Let me speak with him!"
"Dark's getting ice-cream…" he looked over in the direction of the vender. There was no Dark.
"No! Satoshi! Dark's gone!"
"What! Hold on I'll be there in ten minutes!"
"Do you know where they took him?"
"Yes, we have to hurry!"
"Then why are you chit-chatting? Get your ass over here!"
"I am!"
"One more thing… how do you know where I am…?"
"…that's not important."
