A/N: I don't own DNAngel. For those of you wondering about the voices in thier heads, here it is.
Ness groaned as she sat up slowly. She didn't know what had happened, but she was sure going to need an aspirin.
Sen was next to her, still on the ground, but groaning in pain.
"What the hell happened?" she said as she slowly opened her eyes. Sen gasped, causing Ness to look around them in shock.
Everywhere around them was nothing but white. There were no walls, at least that they could see, or a ceiling either. It was just white all around them.
"I think the correct question is where the hell are we?" Ness asked as she stood. Sen stood
too, grasping Ness' hand to help her up.
Ah, you have awakened.
Ness and Sen both jumped at the sudden sound. "Who's there?" Ness demanded in a firm voice.
There was a sound like two people giggling and then someone spoke again.
You are here.
"Yes, but where is here?" Sen said still looking around her.
This is where I tell you the reason that the two of you were chosen rather than any generations after. Why your brother had to die.
Sen gasped. "You know my brother?"
I knew your brother when he was here last. He has now gone on to another place, where you too shall one day go.
"So, we aren't dead?" Ness asked.
No, I would not have the mother's of my saviors die so easily.
"Mothers? Saviors? What are you talking about?"
Allow me to show you if I may?
"Who are you?"
I am the voice in your head. The one who can see all and who can do nothing to prevent times from passing. I am the natural essence of the Black Wings.
"You are the Black Wings?"
In a sense. I was created by the feelings produced by those who created the Black Wings. The ones known to you as Dark and Krad are known to me as brothers. Allow me to show myself to you.
Suddenly a being appeared before them. He had golden eyes, black hair, and a black overcoat with white clothes on underneath. He was beautiful and yet both girls felt they knew him somehow.
"I am known as Light. Dark and Krad are my twin brothers, created when the Niwa and Hikari families fought over the Black Wings. Dark and Krad were able to escape into the Hikari and Niwa bloodlines while I had to remain behind," he said with a voice as smooth a silk.
Sen stepped forward carefully. "What happened to the Black Wings?"
Light had a look of sadness upon his face. "My brothers could never get along. They constantly fought. When I was young I had a prophecy come to me. I tried to tell my brothers of it, but they were too interested in fighting and trying to become free to listen."
Ness sighed. "It figures."
"So the prophecy you speak of," Sen said, trying to stay on subject, "was the same one told to us?"
"Indeed it was."
Sen nodded. "What do you mean that we are the ones who are the 'mothers' of the 'saviors'?"
Light smiled. "I see that caught your interest. Allow me to show you a glimpse of what I have seen."
Light raised his hand and the whiteness began to fade away, into a place that looked like Ness' home.
"My home," Ness said with a bewildered look, "but then again, it's not."
"This is your home, but at a future time. Follow me."
Light walked through the doorway and into the Art room. Ness and Sen followed only to be confronted with an astounding sight.
There was the Black Wings, fully restored before them. Except now, it looked more peaceful, somehow.
"I don't understand," Ness said coming forward. "I saw it fall apart. I saw it become destroyed. What is it doing in my Art room?"
Light lifted a finger to his lips before pointing. "Watch."
Ness and Sen looked back at the Black Wings when suddenly two people walked into the room.
One was a tall boy with blonde hair and green eyes. He was dressed in a pair of white overalls and a white t-shirt, both covered with paint. Next to him was a girl who was slightly shorter than the boy with black hair and gray eyes. She was also dressed in overall and a white t-shirt, except hers were paint free.
"Okay Damian, it's time to finish the Black Wings."
"Kelli, you have been the perfect partner on this," Damian said as he picked up a nearby brush, "So I think it only far that you give it the final touch."
Kelli's gray eyes widened in shock. "Are you sure?" she said taking the brush from Damian's hands. "I don't want to mess it up."
Damian laughed. "You can't mess it up. We wanted it to be better than the original, and it will be. Now go put the finishing touch on it."
Kelli nodded and stepped forward. She picked her brush up and with a few swipes completed the Black Wings, but giving it a little color.
"How does that look?"
Damian nodded. "It looks great. Now we have to finish by sealing it, so what happened to our fathers doesn't happen again."
Kelli nodded as she set the brush down. Damian produced a knife out of his pocket and cut his hand, and then Kelli took the knife and cut her own.
They held up their bloodied hands toward the Black Wings, their palms facing it. Together they began to chant in Latin. A light began to form around both them and the Black Wings before disappearing.
Kelli looked at her hand was smiled. The cut was gone. The same was true for Damian's hand.
"Alright cuz," he said with a smile, "I think we have an anniversary party to attend."
Kelli laughed. "You mean…parties."
Damian hit his head in mock anger. "That's right. I forgot. Let's go."
The two walked out of the room and Light turned back to Ness and Sen as the world faded back into white.
"I don't understand," Sen said. "Those two just recreated the Black Wings, and then sealed it away. Why?"
Light nodded. "In time, you will come to understand. Those two were raised knowing the truth about their parents and about what would come to pass. In fact, you two are the ones who teach them about the ceremony you just saw."
"Us? I don't understand," Ness said.
"You were chosen because you bothpossessed something that no one in previous generationsdid. You bothpossessedthe best wishes for the Black Wings. Everyone before you was after it's power. Your brother had to die because if he did not then we would have had to wait millions of years before we could find you both again. I wish to thank you for helping me, although you have yet to do that. Despite the fact that the Black Wings was sealed away, I could still watch over my two brothers and their families."
Light nodded before he faded into nothingness.
"Wait!" Sen yelled. "How do we get home?"
I will light your way.
All around them suddenly turned as black as night, except for one small ray of light at the end of a tunnel.
Do not forget what has happened here, and you will always have my thanks.
"Good-bye Light," both Ness and Sen said before walking towards the light. After what felt like a lifetime they finally reached the end of the tunnel. The light was actually a door. They opened the door and walked through it…. straight into Ness' drawing room.
