Notes:
The writing in italics is Krad speaking.
I hope you enjoy this.
I decided to split the original first chapter into a few smaller ones.
Here's the second instalment.
Red Fire
'Would you like any refreshments sir?'
'No, thank-you. I'll be fine. Please close the door on your way out.'
Once the waiter had left, he sighed. 'He' was a teenage boy also, the same age as Daisuke.
His name was Satoshi Hiwatari.
Even though he was only a teen, the boy had graduated school years before; he even had a university degree and was the commander of the police force. Satoshi also had a secret.
Just as Daisuke had Dark, Satoshi had Krad; the opposite of the thief. Krad's goal in life is to capture Dark.
The teen flicked his shoulder-length blue hair out of his eyes and hung a "Do Not Disturb" sign on the door. He wanted to enjoy his bath in peace.
Satoshi removed his clothes and slipped into the warm water.
You know you really do look good with no clothes on
'Krad…please don't disturb me in the bath. It really is very relaxing and I don't need you to spoil the moment'
Just stating the facts. Not even Dark has a better body than you. He was strong, but you…you are weak, and powerless against me
There wasn't really anything unusual in Krad's words; he liked to intimidate his other half, but one thing caught Satoshi's attention.
'You've seen Dark naked?'
Naturally. He's my other half. And besides, I loved him, so it was only natural to feel an urge?
'You loved him? But…you're supposed to hate him'
Just as you're supposed to hate Niwa
'You…you…get out.'
He had loved Daisuke Niwa for years. Even before he knew that Dark resided within him.
Aw…don't be so harsh. I'm just stating the facts. You should see some of the things you dream of…
'GET OUT AND LEAVE ME ALONE! I hate you…'
By that stage the Hiwatari had jumped out of the bath and was panting with fury.
You're so cute when you're angry
'Just…leave me alone. Okay?'
Satoshi sat down on the side of the bath. His head was starting to hurt from Krad's voice, but he ignored it and focused his attention to blocking his presence; something he had needed to do many times.
Don't be so mean. You know you want me…Satoshi…What's happening? What's going on? SATOSHI! HELP!
His headache had grown, and now it felt as if his head was splitting. He always felt a headache when Krad tried to take over, but never to this extent.
'AAAAGH! KRAD! My head…'
Satoshi fainted, but by that time there was another person in the room.
'About time.'
Krad smirked at the sight of the fainted boy and walked out of the hotel room.
He glanced down the long hallway, wondering what he was capable of in his new body.
First he used his new found body to smash a few flower pots, and then walked outside, shading his eyes from the evening sun. As they were on an island there were no buildings to play with, only the hotel, and so he retreated into the lush jungle. There he climbed trees, swung from ropes and ran around to test his new body.
Well…my second instalment for you.
I hope its okay.
For all of you out there who have previously read my other version, please tell me whether this one is better.
It seems better to me, but I'd like your opinions as well.
