Chapter 3: Bad NewsYume looked out her window as the large black bird, no winged man, came toward her window. He landed on her balcony and she stepped back, very scared. She had to be dreaming, she had to be! Since when do people have wings? Just to be safe, she grabbed her softball bad, which she kept against her closet door.
"Who are you? Yume said, scared stiff.
"Its ok, I'm a friend"
"Sure, sure. Like I believe THAT."
"You can put that thing" THUNK "OUCH! Put that thing down, I'm not gonna hurt you!" Dark rubbed his shin where the wooden bat had just made contact. Yume swung again but Dark caught it, pulling it out of her hands. She stepped back, eyes wide. She searched for something else that would cause sufficient damage to her oppressor, but could find nothing and was backed into a corner.
"DAD!"
"Eh, that's not exactly how I wanted to meet your father, you know."
About to scream again, Yume was halted by the invasion of personal space from Dark's unsuspected kiss. It was quick, just enough to freak her out. Dark smirked and backed away and walked towards the door out of the bedroom.
"DADDY!!!" Yume screamed again, trying to get the kiss that was supposed to be reserved for the one she loved first out of her head.
"Yume, be quiet. I was hoping to surprise your father..." Dark was a little embarrassed, as he didn't really want to see what Satoshi had up his sleeve for this meeting, under the circumstances.
Footsteps were heard running up the stairs just seconds before the door flung open. A familiar blue haired man stood, eyes wide, followed by another familiar face, the one that followed him so often in the past.
"DARK!" cheered Risa, a little happy to see her first crush again, not having aged a day.
"YOU!?" Satoshi wasn't as thrilled as his wife.
"What the hell is going on?" Yume sank in the corner, freaked out even more by the idea that her parents KNEW this pervert.
----
Meanwhile, Ayame cowered in the back of her mind. Dark had just kissed her best friend, her cousin. With HER body. Well, not exactly of course, but still, technically, she kissed her! Ayame shuddered, hoping this was all just a nightmare.
----
A little while later, Dark was sitting in the dining room talking with Satoshi while Risa sat consoling her daughter. (Oh how Risa wished she could have had the same experience! After all these years, Dark was still hot!)
"Dark, I can't allow this to go on. I cannot allow Yume to turn...no, it just won't happen. Krad will now come back." Satoshi has a hint of fear in his voice, something Dark knew he never heard before. Perhaps he had softened since he didn't have to deal with Krad anymore.
"It started for you when you turned 14, right?" Satoshi nodded, "When does she turn 14?"
"In 2 days."
"Guess we don't have much time. I don't know if I'd be able to fight him knowing your daughter was his vessel."
"And you think I would let you touch him knowing that? I think not." Satoshi was clearly against Yume becoming Krad. And if she did, who could save her? Dark fought him, even though he did feel it, due to Krad's love to torture him. He would not let anyone feel the same pain. "...That's besides the fact Krad would want me dead." He paused for a minute, "I don't think we can keep the girls separated though."
"Why would we have to?"
"Triggers. I'm assuming he will respond to the same thing he did with me."
"Oh, makes sense...Well, for me it was Daisuke's crush on Risa." Dark paused and smirked with the idea he had since back then. "So for you it was..." smirk.
"That's not it. It was you." Satoshi replied nonchalantly. After a strange look from Dark and a long pause he continued, "His hatred for you, that is."
"Phew, I'm glad that's how it was." Dark said, even know he knew better. (AN: ok fangirls, you KNOW that glomp/tackle in epi 1 had ulterior motives!)
----
A little while later, Dark was forced (by Risa) to go apologize to Yume for freaking her out. She was a little better facing him knowing he was a family friend...yet still not knowing that he in fact shared a body with her friend.
----
Ayame wasn't too sure she understood what was going on...She turned into Dark, but Yume would be someone too? And why was her uncle and Dark so scared of it? Dark didn't seem THAT bad...even if he was a bit perverted. 'What am I saying, a bit? A BIT? HE KISSED YUME! I like, was just forced to kiss my cousin! Nasty!!!'
-Cousin? Well, just think of it like you watched me kiss her. –
-...It looked like you were planning on raping her...-
-It wasn't that bad. –
-YES IT WAS! I felt like I kissed her. It was gross!-
-Geez, with Daisuke it was easier. He twitched but he was a little ok with kissing girls...just not the ones he liked...-Dark swooped down near the church steeple getting closer to Daisuke's home. It was still in the same place, so he knew where it was. Ayame refused to lead him home.
-Dark? Who's Krad?- Ayame asked after a few seconds of silence.
-My antithesis, and right now, our worst nightmare.-
-Why? And what does Yume have to do with this?-
-Your dad left out some important details, I'm guessing. Seems you need a history lesson. Back when your dad and Satoshi were 14, Daisuke, as you know, had to deal with me in his mind. As you can see already, I'm not that bad.- Ayame could feel him smirk –But Satoshi, he had to deal with Krad, a darker force who threatened to overtake him completely.-
-Sounds freaky. How was he evil though?-
-Think of it this way: Imagine having something like me in your head, only constantly reacting to every emotion you had, and soon enough, you realize one of the kids in your class is your enemy, and every time you get near him, Krad threatens to overtake you and kill the person. The only objective Krad has is to kill me.-
-Eep. That doesn't sound good. But...again, what does this have to do with Yume?-
-Simple: You are your Daisuke's daughter and Yume is Satoshi's daughter. You inherited me, and Yume is destined to deal with Krad. Unfortunately, we can't let that happen.-
-So....Krad's like an evil more annoying version of you then, right? –
-Yes. Wait, did you just call me annoying? –
-Yes, I did. And Yume has to deal with him? Can't she just like, banish him out of her head? –
-That was aimed more at me, wasn't it? – This girl was starting to irritate Dark. Dark brushed it off and continued, - Well, I don't know too much about how Krad works with his tamer, but for me, - he smirked, -You get the returned true love of the one you like. Only then will I go away. Of course, you can help me do what I've been trying to do for a long time...Seal Krad, and thus seal me as well. Your father and your uncle did a great deed by helping me. Unfortunately, something went wrong, something I can't quite figure out. –
After another minute of silence, Ayame spoke up. –Ok, we're home. Give me back my body!-
-It's been a while since I've been here, can I just have a little freedom?- Dark smirked as he landed a few yards away from the Niwa home. Eventually, Dark let Ayame have her way. She sure had her mother's stubbornness. She ran inside as fast as she could, realizing now she was clad in what must have looked really good on Dark: Tight black clothing (which wasn't tight enough on her), along with some leather. Unfortunately, it was too big on her, and the way it fell on her, it nearly revealed a little too much to her neighbors.
She slammed the door behind her and stopped to catch her breath.
"Dark?" Riku came out from the kitchen, "Oh, Ayame! Good, your back. Your father is upstairs, he wants to know what happened, I think." She hugged her daughter, stepped back and looked at her, a dissatisfied look on her face. "And please, put something else on...Where's With?"
"He isn't here?"
"He was with you. Ayame, did you leave him outside?"
After noticing a faint scratching at the door, Ayame blinked and let the little fuzz ball inside. With scowled then jumped on Ayame's shoulder.
Ayame got to her room and put her nightgown back on, much to Dark's dismay, and went in for a word with Daisuke.
