Ohh man im so so so so so sorry for not updating in well a long time. I feel horribible as an author who has people nice enough to review my stories. But now I shall make it up to you all by making an even better chapter than before! Im also sorry for it being hard to read, the spacers for each character I made didn't show up so yeah, everything got all cluttered. Thank you all so much for your reviews, and thanks to the readers too. Here we go!
Prince Of Thieves
Daisuke was ungracefully thrown to a corner of the dungy prison cell that was located under the palace and had his wrist and ankle bands cut only to have a new heavier chain attached from his ankle to the wall. "Hey man watch it! That thing hurts!" the guard gave a grunt to the boy and turned to walk out. "Ugh, this isn't fair! I didn't know he was a prince I swear, its not like I stole from him!" the heavy metal door was slammed shut by the angry guard and Daisuke was left alone in his cell.
The redheaded boy just grumbled while trying to look for something to pick the lock on his ankle cuff. ' theres nothing in this dumb room but more chains! How am I going to get out of this one?' the boy sighed and decided to sleep on his thoughts, maybe he could think better after some rest.
With Dark
Bowing his head in a false respectful manner, Dark smirked when he thought of all the fun he could have with the strange redhead down in the basement prison. "Dark! Are you even listening to me! You are not permitted to go out into the city again, it is far to dangerous and you could have been hurt." Dark sighed at one of his fathers well known lectures. "Yes father im aware I shouldn't be outside the palace gates, but its just so boring in here. What else am I supposed to do?" the king seemed to turn red and he started to shake a bit, its like the prince just didn't understand what it means to be royalty. "Dark that's not the point! You are supposed to be preparing to take my place as king soon, not just playing around all the time! Just try and behave for a while okay son?" Dark sighed in defeat, he hated when his dad did this. "Alrite Dad sorry for worrying you."
Prince Dark stared up at his ceiling as the sun went down just thinking about the boy a few floors below him. He hated to lock him up like this, but he wanted to see how smart the boy was. ' I can tell he's different, I've never seen anyone with eyes like that before, its like you can look in them and see the fire that keeps him alive. I'd swear he's a royal but he's living life on the streets, it makes no sense. None at all…' the Prince rolled over and fell into a blissful sleep after his exciting day.
With Daisuke
The redhead popped an eye open and scanned the area he was in, he almost jumped out of his skin when he saw he wasn't in his normal room anymore, but then he remembered what happened. He stole, he got caught, he ran into the Prince. He got up to stretch since his back and butt were now killing him from sleeping in a ball, but when he took a few steps he fell flat on his face. "Agh stupid chains! Now everything hurts. And I still cant seem to find a way out of here!" just then something fell from above and hit Daisue in the head. "Ouch! Why is everything in here against me, im not a bad person. I didnt really do anything to bad…" the redhead stopped rambling when he heard the voice he'd been waiting for, well it wasn't really a voice, more of just a squeak. "Kyuu!" Daisuke's eyes lit up when he saw his fuzzy best friend sitting at the window above his cell. "Wiz! Oh I knew I could count on you. Did ya bring it buddy?" a small lock pick was dropped into Daisuke's hand by the rabbit and it hopped down onto his head. "Good boy bud, you really saved me there." Wiz purred a bit as Daisuke patted his head.
With his ankle free, Daisuke headed for the cell door and gently picked that lock as he did the first. The door swung open and creaked a bit, but it wasn't loud enough to be heard from outside the guards door. Unfortunately the guards were probably still on post, so he'd have to seek past them. He was right, the guard from earlier was sitting in a chair by the door, but he was sleeping. 'this will make things to easy' thought the redhead as he smirked and went out the heavy metal door, when it was almost open it made a horribly loud creak that sounded though the hallway. Daisuke froze in place and the guard shot up from where he was sleeping. "Hey aren't you that kid from… THE PRISONERS ESCAPING! Guards!" Daisuke immediately ran down the hallway away from the shouting guard only to find more coming for him.
With only one direction left he raced back to the first guard and slid on the floor through his legs. He kept running throughout the palace avoiding the guards that seemed to pop out of nowhere. He realized he was getting nowhere fast, so he decided he should hide for a while. Wiz was latched onto his head so tight so he wouldn't fall off that he made a cut on Daisuke's forehead. The redhead spotted a room that had no guards around it so he ran in and shut the door. He found a chair the was by a vanity table of some sort and he put it under the door handle to lock it. He sighed and fell to the floor breathing heavily.
Dark heard the door slam shut, and he also heard the body hit the floor along with the coarse breathing. He knew it was him, he was hoping that he was right and that the boy did in fact prove to be very interesting. He slowly and quietly got out of bed and padded over to the boy. A slight touch on the shoulder and the boy was a foot in the air and back on his feet. A sharp gasp got caught in his throught as he realized he was in the Prince's room. 'Oh man, of all the dumb places to hide. You just had to choose this one huh genius?' red eyes scanned to room looking for an escape route only to meet with deep violet ones. Daisuke hadn't realized that when he was looking around, Dark had backed him into a corner. The violet eyes seemed to bore into Daisuke's thoughts and know exactly what he was thinking ' well…shit' Dark laughed a bit and got closer to the redhead. "Now now, aren't you supposed to be in a cage? Oh I see you just must have gotten lost. That's right isn't it?" the smirk showed that Dark seemed to be enjoying this. "Well actually yes, I happened to get lost on my way out. Now if you don't mind I should get back home, don't wanna keep the family waiting." The younger boy pushed past the prince and was walking to the balcony. " Oh really? Tell me thief, what would the name of this family of yours be?" the prince smirked as he saw the reaction on the boy. Daisuke stopped in his tracks and glared at the prince. "that's none of your business , and its none of your concern either." The redhead put a foot on the top of the railing of the balcony and got ready to jump down into the bushes below. "well before you leave, can I at least know your name, thief?". Daisuke growled and turned back again, "Its Daisuke Okay, now if you don't mind, I got somewhere to be."
With a jump, the redhead was on the palace floor and sprinting for the wall. Dark just longed after the escapee and wondered when he would see him again. 'Till fate brings us together again, Daisuke.'
Next Day!
With Daisuke!
With a growl the redhead woke up the next morning and while heading down to the river to bathe, he thought about last nights events. ' That jerk, he must think he knows everything. How dare he ask about MY family! He obviously knows I don't have one anymore, or why the hell would I be a thief! ARG that jerk, I'll kill him next time just for getting on my nerves and worrying Wiz like that. :sigh: but till then, what do I do for food when all the palace guards are out looking for me?' "Kyuu!" "Huh, Whaa!" Daisuke snapped out of his thoughts when he realized that he practically walked into the river and threw Wiz off his shoulder in the process. "Heh, sorry bud, I'll pay attention more." Wiz gave an assertive 'Kyuu' to the redhead and jumped off his shoulder to the grass below.
With Dark
With his common clothing dawned the Prince prepared to hop the wall again to go find his redheaded entertainment. He headed out for the balcony and decided it would be faster to just jump down like Daisuke did last night, instead of going all the way through the palace and using the stairs. With one last look down the Prince decided just to go for it, and jumped. A small scream filed the air when he realized he didn't know how to land, and the ever so graceful Prince Dark plummeted into the shrubbery below.
After about five minutes of groaning and mumbling curses upon the bushes that failed to soften his landing, the prince got up and scaled the wall like he did the previous day. It only took him 2 tries this time to make it up, so he had a beaming smile on his face as he left the palace grounds once again. He walked thorugh the marketplace and around the housing areas, but with no sign of the redhead he began to worry. He thought that he should check the allyways first before assuming that the guards had caught him and killed him at the palace.
Nearly 20 minutes later the Prince had spotted what he was looking for. He saw a patch of red hair and the ragged green hood of Daisuke's sweater go around a corner. Rather than just jumping up behind the boy, Dark thought it would be much funner to follow the unsuspecting thief and see where he goes during his days. To the Princes surprise, the boy did in fact have a home, but he already knew that there would be no family waiting for the poor boy. 'man I hate when im right, but maybe I can fix that for him.' Prince Dark followed the redhead into the building, Dark took a different route inside since he wasn't willing to climb up 3 stories by a piece of wood outside. He took the stairs, and waited there, he watching the redhead fish out 2 apples from his backpack, he took one of them in his mouth and gave the other one to a furry white rabbit that hopped off his shoulder. Dark thought he saw it last night, but he wasn't sure what it was at the time, a smile grew on the Princes face when he saw the boy interact with his furry friend.
With Daisuke
He managed to grab a couple apples for him and Wiz when he was passing through the marketplace, but he thought it would be better just to stay low for a while until the guards from the palace stop looking for him. He was feeling an uneasy presence for a little while now , but he couldn't tell why exactly. It was like he was being watched, but every time he turned around there wasn't a soul in sight. Daisuke ignored his instincts and passed it off as paranoia, he was watching out the window as the sun went down and made the palace look that pretty shade of purple that it always does at this time, the purple reminded him somehow of when the Prince and him were staring at each others eyes last night. ' pshht, the thought of that guy makes me sick, I cant believe I was just thinking about him like that!' the redhead got up from the window and turned around to go to his bed " I cant believe that jerk…" he froze in the middle of his sentence when he saw the one person he absolutely hated, leaning in the doorway to his room. The Prince.
