A/N: Hey, I don't know what to say… I'm just correcting a few grammar mistakes, so now the story has been proof read! Go me! Enjoy the corrected chapter 1!
-------------------------------------------------------Chapter 1----------------------------------------------------
Wiz crept onto Daisuke's bed, a sky-blue pendent in his mouth. Carefully, he placed the pendent around Daisuke's neck and waited.
A moment later, Dark was on the floor next to the bed. "Thanks Wiz," he whispered as he stood up. He carefully climbed out of the window and jumped to the ground, Wiz following.
"Kyuu!" Wiz squeaked sleepily.
"It's ok, go back to sleep."
"Kyuu?"
"I'll be fine, quit worrying!"
"Kyuu…" Wiz yawned and flew back through the window.

Dark stood at the edge of the dock. 'The same one where Daisuke and Satoshi met at…' he thought. Sighing, he closed his eyes and tried to clear his head.
"Dark?"
Dark spun around and came face-to-face with Krad. He stumbled backwards, into the water. "Shit!" he cursed as he resurfaced.
Krad laughed. "I'm sorry, are you ok?"
"Peachy keen!" Dark hissed and splashed some water at Krad, but missed.
"Hey watch it!"
"What, afraid of a little water?" Dark asked, swimming back to the edge of the dock.
"Here, let me help you out of there," Krad said, holding his hand out to Dark. Dark took Krad's hand and pulled him into the water. "Damn that's cold!" Krad gasped. Dark laughed and Krad splashed him.
"Evilness," Dark laughed and splashed Krad back.
(Passing Time)
"Achoo!" Dark sneezed, shivering. Snuggling deeper into the blankets, he glanced over at Krad, who was looking for some spare clothes he could borrow. He sneezed again.
"I thought idiots couldn't catch colds," Krad teased as he pulled out a suitable outfit for Dark. He tossed the clothes at Dark before he could come up with a comeback.
Dark somehow managed to disentangle himself from the blankets. He picked up the cloths and walked into the bathroom, emerging moments later wearing a black long-sleeved shirt and a pair of baggy white pants. "They're a little tight," he said, tugging at the shirt.
"Sorry, they're the best I've got. Besides, they're Satoshi's."
Dark shrugged. "Say, you're acting a bit too nicely," he said suspiciously. "You haven't tried to kill me and you're lending me stuff… Why?"
"I'm just in a really good mood… This is the first time I've been able to get out in awhile," Krad said, walking over to the window.
"Same. After Satoshi left Daisuke stopped transforming." Dark sighed as he went to stand next to Krad. "The only reason I was able to get out tonight was because Wiz found the pendent."
"Nah, Satoshi transformed in his sleep after he left, he would have very naughty dreams about Daisuke," Krad said with a grin. His face fell as he continued. "He noticed that each time he slept, he got closer and closer to Tokyo, so he, umm, stopped sleeping. I was able to get out because his passed out and transformed."
"Krad… Why did you two leave?" Dark whispered, his voice barely audible.
"Hmm?"
"Why did you and Satoshi leave?" Dark asked, louder this time.
Krad sighed and looked away. "After the "Time Mirror" incident, Satoshi didn't want to have a close relationship with Daisuke, so he avoided him… When Daisuke's friends got them to "meet" Satoshi got so pissed off at himself for kissing Daisuke. He wanted to be just a friend to Daisuke after that, but…"
"They wound up getting together anyways," Dark finished the sentence for him, sighing.
"Satoshi panicked. He wasn't willing to have Daisuke die again, so he left." Krad gave a short laugh. "He thought I'd kill Daisuke again, but to tell you the truth, that's the last thing I'd do."
"What? Wait, I'm confused."
"I'm saying that I've… "certain feelings" for a "certain person" other than Satoshi," Krad said, blushing slightly.
Dark looked taken aback and gasped in surprise. "Krad I'm so sorry, but I don't think of you that way!"
"Not you, you dolt! Daisuke!"
"Ok, now I'm really confused… Didn't you rape and kill him?"
Krad looked uncomfortable. "Well if you think about it, then no."
"Yeah… If you ignore the fact that the only reason you didn't is because Satoshi used the "Time Mirror" to stop it from happening."
Krad winced. "Point taken… By the way, why didn't you choose to forget?" he asked.
"To make sure I could protect Daisuke if you decided to repeat past mistakes."
"… I enrolled Satoshi back into school…" Krad said quietly.
"What?"
"He and Daisuke will be pissed when they find out, but I think we should try and get them back together."
"What do you mean we? You might have a death with, but I don't!"
"Dark, please, I can't do this without your help!"
"…Fine," Dark sighed, giving in. He glanced over at the clock. "Damn it!" he hissed and headed towards the door.
"What?"
"There's only five minutes left before the pendant's magic runs out! I've got to get back."
"Here," Krad said, taking Dark's hand, "It'll be easier if I fly you there."
(Passing Time/Change POV)
Satoshi sat up in bed, trying to wake up enough to think straight. He looked around the unfamiliar room. 'Where the hell am I?' he wondered.
'At your new apartment in the Azumano neighborhood in Tokyo! It's time for you to get ready for school by the way,' Krad said happily. 'Your uniform's over there. I bought it for you yesterday.'
'School?'
'Yep, I enrolled you at the high school. It's the same one Daisuke's going to! So get up and get going, or you'll be late!'
Satoshi, still in a daze and not quite awake, got up and picked the uniform. He was half-dressed when he became fully awake. '… What the hell? What the hell did you do that for?' he shouted at Krad.
'Look, I know you're upset, but let's focus on the good,' Krad told him optimistically.
'And that would be?'
'You could see if Daisuke will forgive you for being a dumb-ass.'
'…Fine, I'll go,' Satoshi sighed and finished dressing. 'Why do I always let you talk me into doing stuff like this?'
'By the way… I, umm, kinda lent some of your clothes to Dark.'
'What?'
(Passing Time/Change POV)
"Daisuke, are you ok?"
"Huh? Oh, yeah I'm fine…"
"Are you sure?"
"Yes Riku, I'm fine," Daisuke said irritably. 'Must she do this every day?' he wondered.
He and Riku were walking to school together like they usually did and Riku was once again badgering him with questions. She was always asking him why he had changed, why he started skipping school, if he was ok, and blah blah blah. He hated it!
"Daisuke did you hear me?" Riku asked.
"Sorry, I must've dazed off. What'd you say?"
"I said Satoshi's back," Riku said with a sly smile.
"Ok then, here's two questions for you: A. How do you know, and B. Why should I care?'
"The answer to both of those questions is because he's right over there," Riku replied, pointing ahead of them.
Daisuke looked up and stopped dead in his tracks. Satoshi was standing there, looking at him with an expressionless gaze. Their eyes met for a breathless moment and Daisuke blushed, but refused to be the first to look away.
"Look, a random pedestrian that I do not know. I'm going to go over there and talk to him, leaving you two completely alone," Riku said and walked away, but Daisuke didn't really pay attention to her.
'Satoshi's back, and this time I'm not going to let him hurt me again,' he told himself as he looked into Satoshi's cold, blue eyes.
---------------------------------------------------End Chapter 1--------------------------------------------
A/N: I ended the chapter a little bit sooner than I originally planned for more of a, I dunno, dramatic pause, so not only does that mean this chapter's shorter than I planed, but the next chapter's gonna be longer! I can't think of anything to put into my A/N, but editor 2 will complain if I don't make them long enough! I don't know what to do! So I'll star up with mindless ramblings! Please take no offense to my rambling, 'k? Let's start with the best joke ever! Ok, so you're walking down the street and a zebra steals your shoes, how many Cokes can you fit inside a refrigerator? (Insert your answer here) no, cuz bears don't eat chicken! I love penguins! They go "Queck!" and I love them! Dyslexic sheep sounds! Aab, aab! Yep, lots of stuff from my bro's comics! Is this long enough to keep me from getting yelled at? I think it is, so I'll quit typing! See ya next chapter, bye!
