I wonder how many chapters I'll be making… I might make up to… oh, I don't know, 26! Ha, ha, maybe, maybe not! Okay, okay, unto the story. So… why is Risa-chan so interested in Rika-chan? Is she jealous? Doesn't she realize Dark-kun doesn't like her the way he thinks she does! Anyways, Dark-kun and Riku-chan get into a serious argument… where unwanted words slip out. Dai-kun is caught into the middle of this as well! And will Sa-kun show up in this chapter? Never! (Sees Sa-kun glaring at me as he's holding his "book of everything" notes thingy) Oh, come on! It was a joke!

A few days had passed until it reached next Wednesday. Risa wanted to talk to Satoshi, but felt she couldn't. Riku was supposed to ask Dark to come with them to see Rika, but he was conceited as ever, and she'd always forget after shouting at him.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Risa was walking down the hall during lunch to head to the auditorium to try out for the school play. It was a play called Ice and Snow, and she really wanted to play as Freedert, the female lead. She really wanted to be apart of the famous play.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Actually, Daisuke, Riku, and Dark were heading to the auditorium as well. Dark wanted to try out for the male lead, Elliot. "I know I'll get the part," he smirked at them, "Sorry, Daisuke, you have no chance."
Riku glared at him. "Quiet it, Dark!" Riku shouted, "Niwa and I are trying out only for fun!" "Yeah, Ms. Riku and I don't plan on getting any parts," Daisuke added, scratching his head.
As they made their way towards the auditorium, they found Risa walking there too. "Hey, Risa!" Riku called when she ran up to them. "Good morning, Ms. Harada," Daisuke said. "Good morning," she replied. And then she went up to Dark, all excited. "Mr. Dark, I'm going to get the part as Freedert, right?" Risa asked him. "Uh… well, if you get past the audition, then… I'm sure you'll get it…," Dark mumbled, looking away. He didn't want to keep Risa's hopes up because she might not get the part, but she really wanted his opinion badly.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Next up… Risa Harada…," the drama teacher called. Risa quickly got up, and walked over to the stage with a smile. "Who will you be playing as? Freedert?" the teacher asked her. "Yes," Risa replied, and was handed the script. "Alright, now just start saying a few of the lines from the beginning, okay?" the drama teacher asked. Risa nodded. Her voice was nervous, and a bit over dramatic, but Risa thought she'd get the part.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Dark… Dark Mousy…," she called the next student. Dark smiled at Riku before going up. He played it cool, and charming.
He was handed the script for Elliot, and spoke the role very well; even Riku was impressed. "Freedert… though you may be a peasant, I have never thought of you like that. You are the one I cherish most, the one person I'd sacrifice everything for. It doesn't matter what the other townspeople think; as long as we're together… I'll always protect you…," Dark said, as if telling the actual Freedert. "Very good, Mr. Mousy! I think we've found our Elliot!" the teacher exclaimed.
Dark winked at Riku, and then eyed Daisuke. The redhead had already gone, and was Elliot if Dark was absent. "What's wrong, Niwa?" Riku asked. "Dark already got the part… wow… I guess that makes me Elliot's substitute," Daisuke explained. Riku sighed, and looked at the buffoon on stage.
She glared at him, with her tongue sticking out. Dark noticed, though, immediately tried to ignore her face. "Grr… he's so irritating…! And way overconfident! He'll never achieve over anything, with a perverted mind like that!" she thought in anger.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Riku was up next, though didn't feel like auditioning because she might get the part. She took the script slowly. She was a bit nervous of this, and when she saw Daisuke, she felt calmer.
"You're right, Elliot. I cannot give up. No matter what happens… I will never leave your side, Elliot. Never…," Riku said, with a graceful smile, as if saying that to Daisuke. She looked up at Daisuke and blushed. "I will never give up on Niwa either," Riku thought, but was interrupted by someone's clapping.
She looked over and saw the drama teacher clapping her hands. Riku backed away. "Huh!" she asked, and looked over to see Dark clapping like crazy, and also saw Daisuke clapping too with a smile.
"Congratulations, Ms. Riku Harada, you got the part!" the drama teacher exclaimed. "Eh! What!" Riku asked. As she walked back to her seat, she saw a quiet Risa.
"Risa… I'm sorry…," Riku told her sister. Risa looked at her with a wearily smile. "Its okay, Riku…," she reassured her sister.
"Great job, Ms. Riku; I'm impressed," Daisuke said, blushing. Riku blushed too with a nod. "Guess what, Riku? You and I are gonna play lovers! Why don't practice right now?" he smirked, trying to kiss her. "Hey!" Riku shouted, pushing him off. "Well, you never know if there's a kissing part," Dark mentioned, which made her want to gag.
She rushed over to the teacher. "Teacher… is there going to be a… kissing part…?" she asked, feeling sick. "Well, of course, Ms. Harada. This is a play of romance," the teacher said with a smile. Riku felt like she was going to die. She looked back at Dark's smirking face, and felt like killing herself! "This… this can't be happening!" she thought.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After school. While Riku, Dark, and Daisuke were walking home, Risa stayed after school, hoping to find Satoshi. "Aww… I can't find him anywhere… he walks too fast…," Risa whined, walking down the hall. "And I was even going to apologize!" She sighed, and decided to head on home.
What she didn't know was, Satoshi was walking down the hall, and saw her, though she didn't see him. He quietly watched her, but then left. He didn't know if she was talking about him, but it was really none of his concern.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Ms. Riku, you're really lucky to get the part. Besides, it'll really help," Daisuke commented. "I know… thanks, Niwa," Riku mumbled. "Come on, Riku, be happy; at least you know you're better at acting than Risa," Dark smirked. Riku glared at Dark. "Thanks… Dark…," she mumbled again, but in an irritated voice.
Daisuke soon left home, which left the two alone. "What now?" Riku questioned, seeing Dark's wide grin. "I guess that means I get to walk you home," he told her. Riku stared at him. "Why does he make something so normal sound so perverted?" she thought.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Riku decided to walk ahead, strangely with a quiet Dark trailing behind. "Eh? Weird… Dark was sure excited about walking me home… and now…," she thought as she turned around. "What?" Dark asked. "What do you mean what? What's wrong?" Riku questioned. "Nothing; let's go," Dark replied, and walked pass her.
"Hey!" Riku shouted, and grabbed his arm. Dark stopped, but looked away once he heard her voice. "Aren't you gonna talk with me? Dark!" Riku demanded, wanted an answer from him. "There's nothing to talk about Riku," Dark said. "No… there is. Before… when you whispered in my ear… the day you… kissed me. What did you mean?" Riku asked. Dark sighed, remembering it.
Riku looked up to see Dark heading back to the ladder. "You're leaving?" she asked, following him. "Yeah; I mean, you might tell I shouldn't be here," Dark mentioned.
"Of course; I mean, only thieves and robbers do this kind of thing. How do I know I can trust you, hmm?" she teased, eying him. Dark smiled, and before, he left, he whispered something in her ear. "Riku… I like you. I want to save you… and I want to be your knight in shining armor. I will… if you let me," he whispered.
"I know you like me, but… what did you mean… when you told me if I let you? I don't understand… I…," Riku said, slowly. "It's been on my mind since you said that to me." Dark looked at her. "Really?" he asked. "Uh… yeah," Riku mumbled, looking away.
Dark walked up to her, facing her. Riku stood there, confused. He brought her face to his with his hand on her chin. "Do you… do you like me…?" Dark asked her. "Wha…? What…?" Riku thought, her heart racing. "What…?" "Ah… ah…," she quickly said. "I… ah… I gotta go…!" With that, she ran off, leaving Dark with an unanswered question.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Riku looked at her balcony, quietly. The question still rang in her head. "Riku, I'm home!" Risa called, opening the door. She dropped her bag on her bed, and stood next to her sister. "Riku… what's wrong? You're blushing like a tomato…," Risa noticed, which made Riku blush even more. "No… no I'm not!" Riku protested, not wanting to give her sister any strange, weird ideas. "Oh, really?" Risa questioned. "Did something happen… between you and Niwa?"
Riku backed away. "Niwa… right, Niwa…," she thought, and looked away. "What would make you… think that?' Riku asked, quietly as she walked out of the room. "Huh? Riku, wait!" Risa called, trying to follow her sister.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ah, that's the 18th chapter for ya! Ohhhhhhhh! Riku-chan has questionable feelings for Dark-kun… ohhhhhhhhhhh! I can't wait to tell Dai-kun! (sees Riku-chan, holding a gun at my face.) Okay… maybe I won't. Well, anyways, will Risa-chan ever get to talk to Sa-kun? Will Riku-chan's feeling finally be revealed? And as Rika-chan slowly fades from life itself, what surprises and tragic things will happen in the next chapter, you ask? Well, duh, RXR, I'll make it soon, obviously!
