The doorbell rang. Sixteen-year-old Harada Riku opened the door. "No way!" She gasped. Standing in front of her was… "Dark!" Dark grinned as he pushed open the door, "Aren't you going to welcome me?"
"Daisuke!" Riku shouted.
"Coming!"
Appearing from behind the door, he stood rooted to the ground as he saw Dark. 'I… I thought you were… gone…" Dark laughed, "I was barely alive then, but… I don't know how… I somehow survived, but Krad didn't… I'd injured him too badly… But I'd lost all my powers… Anyway, where's Risa?"

"I have to see her!"
Upon saying this, Dark rushed to the hospital, where Risa was…
