Dark: Mua ha ha, we've finally gotten rid of her!
Krad: About time.
Daisuke: Now you guys have no one to pick on, now...You know that right?
Satoshi: And now her friend Kat is going to have to finish the story now. Which means she can do more evil stuff than Tyan did!
Dark: Kinda forgot about that part.
Krad: What do you mean you forgot!
Dark: Um...Well...Oh screw it, go get Tyan.
Krad: (Shakes his head and walks off screen.)
Daisuke: What did you do with her anyways?
Dark: Tied her up to a rollie chair and pushed it into a closet.
Daisuke: And how long has she been in there?
Dark: Two days.
Daisuke: (Looks at him wide-eyed.) She's been tied up in there for two days!
Dark: Yeah.
Daisuke: You trying to kill her!
Dark: Maybe.
Krad: (Walks back in, pushing a office chair with wheels. Tyan ducktaped sitting in it and a bandana tied around her mouth.)
Daisuke: She's gonna kill you.
Dark: Maybe not. Hopefully she learned not to mess with us!
Tyan: (Wakes up, and squints from the bright lights.)
Dark: (Walks over and towers over her, leaving her in shadow.) About time you woke up. (Pokes her in the head.)
Tyan: (Her head falls back a little and she blinks as if stunned. After a moment she rips the ducktape away like it's nothing and socks Dark knocking him back a bit.)
Krad: This should be interesting.
(Inuyasha and the gang walk in and stop in there tracks a bit confused at the sight. Satoshi and Daisuke away from them talking to each other, Krad with his arms crossed behind a chair that had ducktape hanging off it, Tyan with a crazed look on her face as she riped off the bandana around her head, and Dark backing up slowly.)
Tyan: (Pulls out a katana and starts attacking him with inhuman speed.)
Dark: Calm...Down! (Manages to say only that inbetween dodging her attacks.)
Krad: There's something wrong with her, she hasn't spoken since I opened the closet door.
Dark: (Barely gets past a swing cutting the front of his shirt open.) You think!
Inuyasha: Let me at her. (Pulls out his sword.)
Kagome: Sit!
Inuyasha: (WHAM, into the ground.)
Sango: (Sweatdrop.) Start the chapter.
Chapter 6: Devil's Snare Part I
Dark gumbled, pulling himself out of the hole his necklace had drove him into. He wasn't going to get much sleep now and it was soon approaching 8 o'clock. He looked at the alarm clock just now seeing that it was 7:49 pm. He moaned and collapsed onto the bed falling asleep instantly.
(Back at the Tavern)
Inuyasha gave a low growl as Kagome approached him, he wasn't happy at the moment and he didn't feel like dealing with Kagome.
"Inuyasha?"
"What, wench?"
She shrugged off the name he had called her and bowed. She usually didn't do this, but she didn't want to be alone, Inuyasha was all she had left. Inuyasha looked at her stunned that she had bowed to him.
"Inuyasha...I'm sorry."
"You should of thought about that before you stopped me from tearing Dark limb from limb."
(Oh wow, Inuyasha can remember Dark's name, but Dark can't even try to remember Inuyasha's.)
"That's exactly why I stopped you! I can't stand him either, but it's wrong to kill him."
"This is oh too framiliar, wench... Just like when Koga was around!"
She sighed.
"What can I do to make it up to you--Without you killing him?"
"Tell him to fuck off."
"I'm not going to say 'fuck off' to him. Isn't putting a rosary on him, enough punishment?"
"It's not enough punishment... It only makes us equal... So tell him to fuck off and leave you alone!"
She gritted her teeth and walked off, sometimes he was just too stubborn.
(At Azumano High School)
A tall red head walked through the halls trying to get to his class on time. He had a childish, innocent face, that was unusual for his age. Daisuke had taken it hard when Dark upped and disappeared one day, as well as Krad. He had let his hair grow out and his old style of spiky red hair had disappeared. His hair now was weighted down and looked like a shorter version of Dark's hair. He sprinted past two sophmores and slid to a stop in front of his seventh hour class. Unlike some American schools, you could take night classes instead of getting up early. He'd liked this arrangement better and wouldn't have it any other way. He casually walked in and the bell rang as soon as he stepped inside.
"Niwa! You were close to being late...Again!"
"Sorry sir, I'll try to get here earlier tomorrow."
"Good, now take your seat."
He sighed finding that he got off this time and made his way to a seat beside a girl about his age. She had red and brown hair that would have been to her shoulders if she kept it down. Her hair was braided tightly, but her bangs and side hair hung freely around her face. She smiled to Daisuke as he sat down and pulled out his books.
"Hi Daisuke."
The teacher started the usual boring lecture, not hearing the two whispering.
"Hello Riku, how are you doing?"
"I'm okay. You get your homework done?"
"Yeah, I actually had time to get it done."
"Wow! You never get it done-- I was beginning to think that it was impossible."
"It's not that impossible--"
"Come on, you never get time to get essays done, your behind in Geometry...Daisuke what do you do all the time?"
He was about to answer, but he was stopped by the teacher's sudden sprint out the door. Everyone looked at him stunned and then started cheering hoping he'd gotten too sick to talk anymore. Daisuke laughed at how childish the class still was.
By the time the class stopped cheering and talking loudly the bell had rang and they were all scrambling out. He was glad it was the last class he had today as he walked to the hall, being a little slower than usual so he didn't get a "clumsy moment" as Emiko called it and ended up causing a mess of things. Riku had done left, leaving him alone to his thoughts as usual. Takeshi had left for a private school in Paris and Satoshi hadn't been heard of since Dark and Krad got their own bodies. Last, but not least, the popular one...Risa, had left for a school in America at the beginning of the year. Riku was the only one left, but for some reason they weren't as close as they were before him and Dark separated.
When he reached his locker most of the people had left. He unlocked the combination lock, 22-25-7, he carelessly tossed his books into the top of his locker and reached for his backpack and binder. He let the binder drop to his feet and quickly put his bag on his shoulders. He grabbed his lock and shut the locker, he locked it...This time remembering to. He picked his binder up and walked outside glad school was finally over.
Daisuke walked the familiar path he'd always taken, through the park and down four blocks, then a left turn and he was home. The high school wasn't much farther than the Middle School had been, in fact the schools were on opposite sides of his house. He reached the park when he heard an old familiar voice and ducked back behind a tree. He looked over and spotted Krad and Satoshi talking in the middle of the park.
'What are they doing here... And where have they been?' He listened to them only making out a few words: Hikari, painting, and lose. He knew Emiko and Daiki would worry, but he hoped they would understand.
Krad and Satoshi walked out of the park leaving Daisuke lurking in the shadows. He waited till he was out of view of the two and stealthily followed them. He was so quiet that he was sure a mouse's squeak could be heard over him. Krad and Satoshi walked five blocks to the edge of town. A huge mansion stood at the end of the road and the trees were thinning making it harder to stay invisible to them. They walked past a guard at the gate and entered the grounds, that were surrounded by a concrete fence. He'd have to jump from a tree to even get high enough to get over. He hadn't a clue what was on the other side so he decided he'd try to sneak past the guard.
Just as he was about to go for the gate, he realized a guard snuck up behind him while he'd been thinking, the guard hit his pressure point before Diauke could react. The last thing Daisuke saw was the ground as he passed out.
(Future- Jade City, two towns away from the tavern)
"Mom."
"Yes darling?"
A black-haired child, that looked no older than 10, smiled up to Sharem.
"Can we go to Augusta City?"
"But that's the opposite way that--"
"Please mom!"
He looked almost like he would beg and took her hand, knowing that would make her cave like always. Under his false emotions stood a full grown merciless killer. He would use her as long as possible to get "his" Rain back.
"Okay... We'll stop in for a few days."
"Thanks mom!"
He gave an excited smile then sprinted off. He knew Rain was in that town and soon he would get to see him again. More that though, he wished to capture Rain. He had to leave an impression on him so he wouldn't forget him and the start of Rain's suffering before, was only the start of it.
(Dark's Room)
Dark groaned as he awoke to the alarm clock going off. He was now wishing he'd put a later date on the note, as he stumbled out of bed half awake almost forgetting about the alarm clock. He yawned again and shook his head trying to wake himself up. It wasn't effective till he drank a cup of coffee (no caffeine tolerance). He was immediately awake and getting a bit hyper too. He hurried and changed his clothes into a black tank top, straight black pants, boots, and a long black overcoat to top it all off. (As soon as he got to the tavern, he went through all the rooms till he found clothes that would fit him and some how he managed to do it without Rain noticing.)
Dark opened the sliding door, and saw no balcony. He shrugged it off and took flight his wings, having just enough energy left in them to get him inside the flea market.
(Hikari Mansion- Basement)
Krad smirked as a guard walked in, Daisuke over his shoulder, still passed out. Satoshi looked at Daisuke almost in shock, he hadn't seen him since Krad and Satoshi separated. It tore him apart to see Daisuke's life held on by a string, but he couldn't do anything yet.
"Set the boy down and leave us."
The guard nodded to Krad, then set Daisuke on the floor and bowed before walking to the upper levels of the mansion.
"Hey!"
Krad pushed him with his foot.
"Wake up!"
Daisuke slowly stirred, getting Krad's wake up call. He blinked and focused in on his surroundings. He looked wide-eyed at Krad and backed up, stumbling to his feet. Krad only smiled and grabbed Daisuke's arm. He tightened his grip as Daisuke struggled and dragged him to the next room. Satoshi quietly followed them a bit curious as to what he wanted with Daisuke to lure him all the way out here.
"Now tamer, Toki no Byoushin some how synched with the you and unsealed itself... I'm going to recreate that synch and use you as a medium to unseal an artwork... And don't even try to get away, there is no escape from this place, so I would do as I say, unless you would like me to kill you and use someone else."
Daisuke looked at Krad quite pissed off that his life was held in the hands of wether the artwork would use him or not. He sighed finding no chance of him getting away, yet. The place it most likely set up for if Dark were here, making it much harder for him.
"What artwork are you talking about?"
Trying to hide the fact that he was trying to escape and looked around as if looking for an artwork.
"Your not fooling anyone, and the artwork is behind that cloth."
Krad pointed to a black piece of cloth hanging on a wall, hiding what looked, from the shape, a painting.
Daisuke looked at his surroundings, the vents were too small to escape through, the walls were made of concrete and there were no windows in the room. He sighed finding his only way out was to get past Krad. He took a step forward and paused feeling a chill rise up his spine. He was sure it was coming from the painting as he walked closer. It felt more like evil was surrounding him, the closer he went. He stepped up to it and quivered as he pulled the cloth away. The painting was a scene of hell in background, it almost seemed like it was actually fire in background. In the foreground was a beautiful crystal. It was a pink-ish pearl and was held up on a demon looking alter, and the crystal sat on a dark red, velvet pillow.
Daisuke was stunned at how beautiful the painting was, making him forget the chills that it gave him earlier. Daisuke lightly touched the frame and ran his fingers across it. A bright like emitted from the painting and he jerked his hand back to shield his eyes from the light. The light dimmed and he blinked a few times focusing in on his surroundings. It was dark and he was sure the room hadn't of been this big. He turned just in time to see a group of men run at him, not even stopping to go around him. They knocked him roughly to the floor and continued on, not looking back.
Daisuke grouned and pulled himself up.
"Where am I?"
He shivered at the sound of another person walking closer to him.
"Daisuke?"
Daisuke turned around and saw a man, clothed in black and not much taller than him.
"Dark!"
"How'd you get here?"
Daisuke didn't have time to explain. The men came running for Dark as he took off, Daisuke running close behind. Dark sighed and stuffed the necklace into his pocket, he didn't have any wings so it was going to be more of a challenge to get away. He heard something wiz past him and watched the door in front of him blow up. Dark turned around and saw one of them grinning and holding a rocket launcher. Dark grabbed Daisuke's arm and ran for the nearest window.
One of the guys stepped out of the group and took off his sunglasses to get a better look at the running katiou.
"Get him!"
The guy smiled as the rest of them scrambled after the katiou, pulling out guns and several other potentially deadly objects along the way. (I love using bounty hunters...it's fun!)
"Shit, Saehara never had these guys-- I don't think I'm Neo. I can't dodge bullets."
"You just have to come up with a way to get them off our tail...You don't have to pretend your in the matrix!"
"Well, if I had Wiz, we could already be gone, but I left him with you."
"Kyuu..."
"What was that?"
"I think it was Wiz, but I left him at home."
Wiz pops his head out of Daisuke's backpack. 'I'm astonished that he didn't get squished. Thank god, I didn't wake up on my back.' Daisuke thought as Dark grabbed Wiz and touched his forehead lightly making Wiz transform into Dark's wings.
"Oh no, you don't!"
The guy with the rocket launcher screamed as he aimed it and fired.
"Shit!"
Dark took a hold of Dark as Wiz lifted them off the ground barely missing a collision with the rocket. The explosion however wasn't so lenient on them. It knocked the men back and hurtled Dark into a beam, making him drop Daisuke. They'd gotten almost as high as the ceiling and the fall would hurt Daisuke for sure.
Dark coughed as dust blocked the view of everything. He couldn't see Daisuke. 'Where was he?' The dust slowly began to settle and in front of the area that once stood a door, now just a hole in the wall...Was none other than Krad and a small black haired kid. Krad held an unconscious Daisuke in his arms and a smirk appeared on Krad's face as they turned and walked out. Dark struggled to get up, Wiz, unconscious and in rabbit form, moaned instinctively in pain as Dark pulled himself out of the hole, the rocket had put him into. He grabbed Wiz and jumped down. 'He wouldn't take Daisuke unless he wanted him for something. Krad despised Daisuke. He wanted him dead. So, what possessed him to save Daisuke now?' Dark sighed and walked out stumbling and looking for any signs of Krad or Daisuke... 'And who was that kid?'
(Later onSharem's Safehouse)
"Yuca, huh-- Well, if you help me, I will help you."
"Is that so? Then we have an agreement?"
"Yes, I believe we do."
Daisuke stirred a bit, waking up. He opened his eyes and couldn't move. It was dark all around him. He could hear Krad in another room. He tried to move his arms and legs again, but they couldn't break free of the bonds. He layed there trying to think, hoping to find a way to get free.
Tyan: (Still trying to kill Dark, panting heavily from fighting him for so long.)
Dark: (Sweating and panting too.) Jeez Tyan, can you stop your gonna exaust yourself and not to mention me, who is on the sharp end of that weapon.
Krad: Maybe you should throw her back into the closet.
Daisuke: That's not a good idea, she'll only get worse.
Kagome: (Worried.) Is she gonna talk? She hasn't spoken, it's unlike her.
Inuyasha: Who cares one less person's mouth yapping.
Shippo: Don't be so heartless, Inuyasha.
Inuyasha: Can it pip-squik!
Kagaome: Knock it off you two!
Satoshi: Just tell the people to review already.
Daisuke: Fine. Review and byes.
