One -Winged Tenshi: Chapter Seven
Daisuke stared up at the ceiling. He didn't feel like going downstairs again. His good mood had been ruined by Risa. He knew Risa was lying about what she had said, but a part of him believed her. The red head decided to get some fresh air. He stepped out of the room and into the hall.
CREAK
Daisuke heard something upstairs; he also felt a chill. It was like the temperature had dropped several degrees. Maybe it wasn't the best idea to go and see what was upstairs, but Daisuke hadn't seen enough horror movies to know this. The cute ones always die first! The ignorant boy headed towards the stairs. He began to climb up to the next floor.
It seemed to get colder and colder. There was no light and everything was pitch black. Daisuke kept climbing the stairs until he reached the highest floor in the house. Daisuke saw a door open and headed towards it. He stepped inside the empty room and looked around. Maybe he had imagined things? There was nothing in the room, not even furniture. It looked like it hadn't been used in years.
There was a dusty window in the center of the room, though. If you looked through it, you could see a forest. There were several large trees and Daisuke spotted what looked like a wolf. It looked dangerous.
CLICK
Daisuke heard the sound of a door being locked. There was no one in the room, so who had locked the door? The door could only be opened by a key, it didn't matter what side of the door you were on. If you didn't have a key, you couldn't open the door.
"Daisuke…"
By now, the red head was scared. He hoped he was hearing things because that voice belonged to…him…
Dark walked downstairs to meet with his mother. He had no idea what she might want, but he was sure it wasn't something good. Dark spotted his mother. She was gossiping with some of her friends when he arrived. Well…they weren't really her friends. They were more like her "inner circle." Basically it was just old ladies that had nothing better to do than insult people and talk about how much better they were than everyone else.
"Hello Mother," Dark greeted the older woman.
"Hello Dark," the woman replied sweetly.
Now, Dark was worried. The last time his mother had spoken to him that way, he had been kicked out of his house. He didn't trust the conniving woman in front of him. She was up to something sneaky. Dark suspected she spent all her time plotting schemes. It wasn't like she actually worked or anything, so she had a lot of free time.
"Dark dear…I think I might have been a little hard on you and I apologize," Dark's mother stated in a voice so sweet, you could tell it was fake.
(Riiight…)
Dark's mother wasn't known for apologizing to people, in fact, this was the first time she had told anyone she was sorry. Now Dark was sure there was something strange going on. She wanted something…or was about to screw him over.
"Um…okay…" Dark suspiciously replied.
"I want you to come home," Mrs. Mousey told her son.
This was too good to be true…which it probably wasn't.
"Really?" Asked Dark.
"Of course! We have to make preparations for the wedding!"
"Wedding?"
"Yes, your wedding to Risa."
"WHAT!"
A few people turned to stare at Dark.
"Let's talk about this outside," suggested Mrs. Mousey.
Dark's mother led him to the mansion's gardens. There was no one around so they wouldn't be disturbed.
"What wedding?" The teen angrily asked his mother.
"Dark, it's time to settle down and get married," she replied.
"WITH RISA!"
"She'll make a wonderful bride."
"NO!"
Dark turned around and started to walk away from his mother. There was no way he was marrying Risa Harada! He'd rather have his arm cut off! Dark couldn't stand the girl. She got on his nerves.
"You don't have a choice," Mrs. Mousey quietly stated.
Dark turned around to face his mother. He hadn't liked what she had said. He knew she was smirking right now. She had something up her sleeve.
"What are you talking about?" He asked.
"If you don't marry Risa, you'll lose everything. I'll disown you and leave you out in the street," the woman smirked.
(WHAT!)
"I don't care!" Shouted the pissed off boy. "I don't need you! I have Daisuke!"
"Yes…Daisuke… Such a…nuisance… Dumb little red head…"
(Wait… My mother's had never met Daisuke… How did she know he's a red head? What did she do!)
"What about him?" Asked Dark nervously.
"Well, you see son. I've already taken care of that problem," smiled Mrs. Mousey.
"W-What did you do? The purple haired teen stuttered.
"Nothing…there was a problem…and I took care of it. This is for your own good, Dark."
"What are y-"
THUMP
Dark felt as though everything was spinning as he hit the ground. He was getting dizzy and he couldn't seem to concentrate. His mother had injected something into his arm, but he couldn't figure out what. Dark's head hurt and he felt very sleepy for some reason. The teen couldn't stay awake any longer and soon fell asleep.
Dark's mother watched her son fall down. She made no attempt to help him. The woman waited until she was sure Dark was unconscious, then she dragged him to her carriage. The driver didn't question as though why she was dragging an unconscious teen. He knew better than to ask if he wanted to keep his job. The driver took Mrs. Mousey and her son home.
When they arrived, the driver watched the woman carry the boy, who he realized was Dark, into the house. The driver did what all the other servants did, he shut his mouth and decided to never speak of this to anyone.
Daisuke backed away from the figure in front of him. Of all the people he had expected to encounter tonight, he hadn't expected to meet up with …him.
"Daisuke…maybe it's time you learned your place."
Daisuke flinched at the words.
"I'm sorry…Father…" muttered Daisuke.
The terrified boy watched as Kosuke Niwa stepped forward. Daisuke's eyes had adjusted to the lack of light and he could make out the outline of his father.
"You didn't turn out like I wanted…no…you had to be born…disabled…crippled…" continued Kosuke. "I gave you money…a place to live…yet you still found a way to ruin my life…"
Daisuke looked away. He couldn't look his father in the eye. He knew he was a big disappointment. He hadn't become the son his father wanted. He was a failure.
"You couldn't just fade away…" muttered Daisuke's father. "You couldn't just disappear and die in that house."
That was the reason Daisuke's father had given him all that money and left him the house. He had hoped Daisuke would live out the rest of his days all alone in that house. That way, no one would find out Kosuke had a son. The man was ashamed that his son was crippled. He had hoped to cut Daisuke out of his life, now though, that was impossible.
"You just had to embarrass me!" The man angrily stated. "Running around with that boy!"
Dark come from a famous family. Now that he was dating Daisuke, everyone wanted to know about the red head. It was only a matter of time before they found out who his father was. Niwa wasn't a common last name. Kosuke didn't want his acquaintances to know he had a gay son, much less a crippled one. He'd be a laughing stock. There was only one way to fix this…
"I hate you!" Screamed Daisuke.
Kosuke was a little startled by the outburst.
"Y-You never loved me! All you care about is your social standing and your money!" Yelled Daisuke. "You did everything you could so people wouldn't know I existed… You locked me away… I hate you!"
"You're right," Kosuke calmly replied. "I never loved you or cared about you in any way. You should have learned Daisuke… You're unwanted!"
Daisuke felt two a strong blast of icy wind push him forward. He didn't have time to react before he heard the sound of something breaking. He realized it was the window behind him. The glass shattered under Daisuke's weight. Shards of glass cut through Daisuke clothes and delicate skin. Daisuke felt himself falling towards the ground.
(Dark…please…help me…)
Deep down, Daisuke knew no one was going to help him. He was going to die.
Dark woke up in his bedroom. His head was pounding. He felt as though he had a hangover, even though he had only had three drinks. The last thing he remembered was talking with his mother…then…
(SHE DRUGGED ME!)
Dark shot up in bed and headed to the door. He had to get out of here. His mother had finally snapped. She was crazy. Dark turned the doorknob. It was locked, of course. He probably should have seen that coming. It was a good thing he had practiced picking locks. It took Dark two seconds to get the lock open. He stepped out in the hall way and looked around. He would have gone through one of the windows, but bars had been placed on them.
Dark stealthily maneuvered himself through the halls. They were empty, which was odd. Usually there were at least ten or twelve servants in the house at all times. He shouldn't have let his guard down around his mother. He should have known better.
"Dark, what are you doing?"
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Dark turned to face the scariest female in the entire universe. Risa Harada. She was wearing a different dress than the one she had at the party. It was black and very short. The dress barely went past her thighs. Risa's legs were completely exposed. Dark was sure he'd have nightmares later. The girl's hair was in her usual hairstyle.
(Not that…I hate that ribbon…)
The one thing Dark couldn't stand about Risa was the ribbons she always wore. Dark had nothing against ribbons; he just had many things against Risa wearing them. Ribbons would look cute on someone like say…Daisuke! They did not, however, look cute on Risa. Every other guy disagreed with Dark, though. It was just some weird thing he didn't like about Risa.
"Do you like my new ribbon?" Risa asked, while trying to look cute.
Dark flinched and shuddered.
"Wait! What are you doing in my house! Ho did you get in!" The purple haired teen suspiciously asked.
"Your mother let me in silly," giggled Risa.
(That giggle…ew…)
"W-Why?" Dark nervously asked.
"For our marriage!" Stated Risa.
"I don't like girls!" Yelled Dark.
"But you've dated girls before, and you'll learn to love me," smiled Risa.
"Yeah well…I don't like girls anymore!"
"Then what do you like?" Asked Risa with a frown.
"Daisuke!"
Risa's expressions darkened at the mention of the red head.
"So you like boys?" Risa quietly asked.
"No," replied Dark. "I don't like boys, just Daisuke."
Risa wasn't pleased with what she was hearing. Dark was supposed to be hers, not Daisuke's. It didn't matter. Daisuke would soon be out of the way and Dark would have to love her.
"Don't worry about it, Dark!" The psychotic girl cheerfully exclaimed.
"What are you talking about?" Dark asked.
"We've already taken care of the boy."
"Who's we?"
Dark got a bad feeling in the pit of his stomach. Daisuke was in danger! He had to do something! The teen shoved Risa to the ground and ran to the front door. No one stopped him as he ran to Daisuke.
Krad was rather pleased with how things were turning out. Kosuke had been furious when he had told him what Daisuke had been up to. The man would do anything to preserve his reputation. Krad was sure he had allied himself with Dark's mother. Both were controlling parents that would do anything to have things go their way. Then, there was Risa Harada.
Everyone knew about her affections towards Dark. She was a laughing stock, someone to be mocked. She flirted and threw herself at Dark, even though she didn't stand a chance. The girl was obviously insane. He remembered when she was younger.
Risa used to come over and play with Daisuke all the time. She'd probably forgotten him, though. Risa was the same as she was before. She'd probably had some part in Kosuke's scheme. She was just that type of girl. But Krad wouldn't be satisfied with Daisuke's death. He wanted to kill Dark too. He had shown his little brother kindness by letting him live and what does he do? He steals the person he loves the most.
Krad had gone out with Dark first. The purple haired teen had broken things off, though. Sure they both agreed to be friends, but that wasn't what the blonde really wanted. He could have won Dark's heart again, if Daisuke hadn't intervened. The little slut had taken Dark behind his back.
Krad didn't share, especially when it came to Dark. If he couldn't have him, no one could. His brother had stolen everything else from him, but he would not have Dark. He had been born a Tenshi, received love from everyone that knew him, gotten more money than him, and now this! He wouldn't stand for it, though. Soon, both of them would pay. Dark and Daisuke would see why he wasn't someone to mess with.
Dark used his wings to fly towards Satoshi's house. He was afraid he wouldn't make it in time. He landed in front of the house's entrance and went inside. The house was empty, so the party must have ended already. There were no signs of Satoshi or Towa anywhere.
"Daisuke!" Dark called out.
He ran upstairs to see if his lover was still in his bedroom.
"Daisuke!"
The room was empty. Dark was hysterical right now. He had no idea where Daisuke was, or if he was even alive.
"DAISUKE!"
"What's all the yelling about?" Asked a sleepy voice.
Dark turned around and gripped Towa-chan by the shoulders. The girl was startled as Dark shook her.
"Have you seen Daisuke?" He asked in a panicked voice.
"N-No," Stuttered the girl.
"Damn!"
"What's going on!"
"I think my mother did something to him!"
"I'm sure your mother wouldn't do anything like that… Okay, so maybe she would. I'll get Satoshi."
Satoshi was not pleased to be woken up in the middle of the night. After yelling several obscenities at Dark, he agreed to help look for Daisuke. The search wasn't going too well, though. They looked for hours and there were no signs of the red head. Dark decided to look on the last floor, even though Satoshi told him it was never used. It was as empty and dark as Satoshi said it would be. It really did look like it hadn't been used in years.
Dark's coat was caught on a rusty nail. H almost screamed, but he stopped himself in time. Dark Mousey did not scream…really…okay so maybe he'd screamed a couple of times before, but no one knew about it. The teen decided to take off his coat. It was ruined anyway; the nail had caused a big tear in one of the sleeves. That's when Dark felt something odd. It was a chill. He hadn't felt it before because of his thick coat, but he felt it now.
(Where's it coming from? There!)
Dark stepped into the room. It was definitely where the chill had come from. The room was covered in ice and the window was broken. Dark stepped closer to the window. When he looked through the window, he saw the ground was covered in blood and glass. Dark knew that he was too late.
TBC…………….
Would I actually kill Daisuke? Yes. Absolutely. Most definitely. I'm plotting his death right now. Will he actually die in this fanfics? Maybe… Staryday knows me too well... So do Bryttaney, Jess, and Reb. They know exactly what I would do…
