Chapter 3
-Normal PoV-
As the odd trio made their way to the infirmary, they kept getting strange looks. Morningstar caught snips of the whispered words.
"Is that Dark?"
"I think so. What's he doing in our school?"
"The nerve of him..."
Satoshi also heard the comments. 'What's that about?' Morningstar communicated with her eyes. Satoshi shrugged, 'Don't ask.'
Twilight glanced uneasily at her friend. "Hehehe... Star? Is it just me or is there a crowd of people following us?" The blonde turned around to see a sea of students following them very closely. The three picked up their pace. So did the crowd. Twilight looked at Morningstar in despair.
Morningstar formulated a plan. "On the count of 3, run for your life," whispered the blonde.
"One," Twilight said.
"Two," echoed Satoshi.
"THREE!" Morningstar grasped Satoshi's hand and sprinted down the hall, followed by Twilight and the raving fans.
-Morningstar's PoV-
I ran as I never had before. Damn those raving fanatics! They sure can run. I turned down another hall and almost lost Satoshi. He had tripped so I picked him up and carried him bridal style.
"Put me down!" demanded Satoshi.
"And have you be trampled, no thanks. Plus, I can run faster than you and you're sick. I'm doing a community service so quit your bellyaching and be grateful."
Twilight had taken the lead since I had some extra weight. Unfortunally she had very little sense in direction. She'd led us down a dead end hallway.
"What's wrong with you! Will you ever get a sense of direction?" I dropped Satoshi to the floor. The violette looked close to tears. She was never mobbed before. I turned around to see us cornered. I'm not very friendly when I'm cornered. I stepped forward, blocking most of Twilight from view. Satoshi stood up and glared at me, again. I ignored him and stared icily at the crowd.
-Takeshi's PoV-
I am soo excited! Dark is in my SCHOOL! I ran frantically to find Niwa. He's never seen the Phantom Thief. He'd always disappear right before Dark would appear.
I spotted the redhead on the stairs. "Niwa! Come with me. There is something you just gotta see." Before the redhead could object, I grabbed his arm and pulled him through the mob of people who cornered Dark. Do I hear yelling?
-Daisuke's PoV-
I was late again. I hate my alarm clock. I was just going up the stairs when Sehaera pounced on me, ranting about seeing something. The next thing I knew, I was being dragged through the mass of people. Sehaera pushed me to the front.
"...not a CIRCUS FREAK for you to STARE AT!"
I caught the tail end of the speech but was awed at what I saw. It looked like Krad was standing in front t of Dark... in a protective manner? Suddenly, those burning gold eyes were on me as well as fearful violet ones. I squirmed under their intense gaze.
"Look, a new person to gawk at my beloved friend," hissed Krad.
The shock of what I just saw finally took over and I was engulfed by darkness.
-Morningstar's PoV-
I didn't think I said anything so mean to make the boy faint. I barely caught him. The crowd was still gathered around us.
"Leave... NOW!" That scared them off pretty quickly. I looked down the boy I was currently holding. His hair was a beautiful red, almost vermillion.
"Aw, he adorable," Twilight cooed from my side.
Satoshi looked down at him in a loving gaze. "His name is Niwa Daisuke." He reached out to touch Daisuke's forehead but was seized by a coughing fit.
"Okay, it's time you both went to the nurse's office. Twilight, can you help Hiwatari-san?"
-Daisuke's PoV-
When I woke up I was in the school infirmary, tucked firmly in one of the beds. How did I get here? All I remember is Krad protecting Dark. Ha, that's funny.
Dark?
/Hm/
Do you remember anything before I passed out?
/No, I was sleeping. Why/
I just had this strange dream... Get this, Krad was defending you, in front of the WHOLE school.
/What? Where do you get these crazy ideas/
I don't- I broke off as Dark and Krad walked over to my bed, talking amiably.
"So you think he has a crush on Niwa?" asked Krad.
"I don't think, I know. Did you see the way he looked at him- OH! Look at who is awake. How ya feeling, Hun?" Dark smiled at me kindly.
/Daisuke, what is- OH MY GOD! Is that me With Krad
Who are you?" That was all I could get out. I was in shock for the second time that day.
Krad stepped forward. "I am Morningstar Amanece and that nightly beauty is Twilight Anochece." The blonde bowed to the violette in a regal manner.
Twilight shoved Morningstar playfully while blushing dark pink. "Star, knock it off."
/I do not blush./
Dark, that's not you. She just looks like you.
She sat down at the foot of the bed, facing me. "Don't mind her. She acts like that all the time. I swear that blonde is the queen of blonde idiots."
Morningstar smacked Twilight in the back of the head. "I heard that, dummy."
"Well, I'm... "
"Niwa Daisuke," replied Morningstar and Twilight in unison.
-Twilight's PoV-
Niwa blushed to his ears. That's sooooo cute! I see now why Satoshi likes him.
"How did you know?" Daisuke asked.
"Easy. Hiwatari-san told us after you passed out and Star caught you." I looked at Star as I spoke this. Daisuke looked at her with fear. Hmm... better store that in my memory.
I looked back at Daisuke. "Are you okay, Hun? You still look faint. Maybe you should lie back down." Daisuke kept staring into space at odd moments.
"Yea, I think that's a good idea. Thanks, Dark." What? Isn't Dark that thief that everyone is obsess...oh, now I get it.
"Star, ya know who the Phantom Thief is, right?" I asked after Daisuke was asleep again.
"Yeah. That guy who goes around stealing art for no particular reason."
"I'm guessing that I look exactly like him... that'd be why we got chased by that students. They thought I was him."
