AN: I know, I said that I would type it write away, and this is one of the MANY times that I have tried to finish this fic, and might as well finish this one with one more chapter, and get it over with. I'm tired of people bugging me to finish it all the time.

Chapter 5:

I wondered what I should do. Here was Daisuke in my arms, thinking that I was Dark! I appeared to look like Dark too, apparently. Letting out a long sigh, I looked back at the redhead. "Daisuke... I'm sorry, but I have to tell you that I'm not --"

Emiko interupted me, with her cheerful banter, and took me to the side. "I need to talk to Dark about something, all right, Dai-chan? We'll be right back!" She lead me into a room in the middle of the house, far from Daisuke's room. "Satoshi, I need to tell you somethings... well, about everything, I guess."

Nodding, I let her continue, forcing back the urge to say a nasty comment back to her.

"The deal is that there was a prophesy that the Hikari and Niwa clans would one day become one, and resolve their conflict. The story that I was told by my grandfather was that the last Hikari would become a part of the Niwa line when the last of the Niwa fell in love with him. The story is told in two different manners. One is the way that the Niwa passed down, and the other is the one that the Hikari passed down.

"The Niwa version is apparently the true one," she continued, looking at me. "Let me explain the Hikari part first...

"It is told... that the last of the Hikari line was prophesied to fall in love with the last of the Niwa line. When the Hikari became upset that his former 'angel' within him was gone for good, he felt that if Niwa were to replace him, then he would be truly complete. So, the elder Hikari at the time, upon hearing this, cast a spell on both Krad and the Niwa he came across. The spell that he cast would make sure that the prophesy would come true. It intertwined Krad's DNA into the depths of the Niwa blood line, therefore, making it possible for the last of the Niwa line to become Krad for the last of the Hikari.

"However, the Niwa tale tells of mostly the same story, except that the Niwa placed the spell on the Hikari and Dark. That would have made it possible for the last of the Niwa clan to be at peace with himself as it would have done the same for the Hikari in the other version of the tale.

"Well," she took a deep breath, and decided to get a glass of water, and gulped it down, and massagged her throat for a minute. "Which do you think is true? I would think it is the second, due to your state as of now, Satoshi."

I nodded, thinking through both stories. "Couldn't both of them be true? Just that the Niwa took out the part of falling under a Hikari spell, and the Hikari leaving out the part about the Niwa putting him under a spell? It ruin some of the line's feeling of pride over the other side that they were apposing. I never heard the story because of my upbringing... So, I know nothing about any of this."

"Ah! You might be correct! Well, that would explain why things happen they way they did... but... Satoshi."

I looked at her, questioningly. "Yeah?"

"Does that mean that you miss... Krad? And you find that if Daisuke was to become a part of him that you would feel... completed?"

At that, I felt a nerve being struck, and turned my head sharply away. What what this woman thinking! Me... love KRAD, of all people! Nonscence!

But, looking into my own thoughts, then into her eyes, I realized something I never wanted to admit.

AN: HAHAHH! I have changed the way that it was going to turn out! Now I, myself am interested in going on with this story. And I know that this is, again, short, but I am best at breaking things up into short batches, so I can get more out of it, I feel. That way when I'm brain dead, I can just finish what I last typed, and put an ending on it, then an author's note. So, yeah.

I HOPE YOU'RE ALL HAPPY NOW that I put another chapter up of this.

Please Review and tell me your opinion on the twist of the plot line YET AGAIN! Thank you, in advanced.

(And I promise not to wait 10 monthes before typing the next chapter.)
