Ooookaaay..I almost...ALMOST...put up Chapter 12 BEFORE chapter 11...--whoosh--went right by me! But, here is that chapter...the correct one too...
Two weeks went by and everything went back to normal. Neither Daisuke nor Chokuro mentioned what Chokuro had slipped up and said. It just went to the back of everyone's mind.
"Daisuke, are you ready to leave?" Chokuro asked as she packed her bags to leave school.
"Umm, almost…Gimme a sec…"
"Okay. I suppose I could."
"Ready."
"Okay then, shall we?" Chokuro asked with a hand toward the exit.
They were walking for a few minutes in silence until Chokuro decided to end it.
"Daisuke, what would you like for dinner tonight?"
"Umm, anything is fine."
"Ya sure?"
"Yea!" Daisuke said with a big smile on his face.
"Okay…Hmm, now I have to decide… I don't like deciding. It's Friday, I shouldn't have to."
Daisuke laughed as he opened the door to the house for Chokuro.
"Mom, we're home!" Daisuke said as he entered.
"Welcome back!" Emiko greeted the two as they entered the living room.
"Hi Emiko. Do you have a preference for dinner?"
"No. Whatever you would like to make."
"Okay then…darn it, still have to decide on something…How about macaroni and cheese? Simple and good."
"Fine with me." Emiko stated.
"Daisuke?" Chokuro asked.
"Hmm. O, macaroni and cheese is fine with me too."
"Cool. And, I will even make more since you do have a job tonight."
"Heh. Thanks."
"Yup, anytime. Well, I'm off to my room. I'll make dinner around 6 or 7 since Daisuke has to leave at like 9. Ya need time to digest ya know."
Daisuke laughed as he went up to his room and Chokuro to hers.
It was 6:30 when Chokuro went into the kitchen and made dinner. After everyone finished, Chokuro washed the dishes then turned to Emiko and Daisuke.
"Umm, when I'm finished, I'm going to bed. I've been really tired lately…"
"Okay sweetie." Emiko said kind of worried. But she knew Chokuro knew how to take care of herself so it didn't phase her too much.
"Well, I'm off. Till the morning."
"Good night."
"Good night Chokuro." Daisuke said.
"Night. Good luck on your mission-thing."
"Thanks."
She left for her room and went to bed and Daisuke went to his to change.
"Ooo, you look so handsome!" Emiko said when Dark entered the living room after changing. "Would you like anything before you leave?"
"No. I'm fine. Thanks anyway."
"You're welcome. Well, I'll see you when you get back."
Dark left and headed for the museum where the Fate of Destiny Jewel was.
-Hmm, wonder where Hiwatari is…
-I don't know.
-Is this jewel-thing even his?
-Umm, Not sure….
-Hope it isn't. I'm not in the mood for him.
-Maybe we'll get lucky and he won't be here…
-Maybe.
Dark strolled down the hallway to where the Fate of Destiny Jewel was displayed. He turned off all the security around it and took off the glass that surrounded it. He reached for the jewel and when he touched it, a light emitted from the black jewel. Dark retreated from the jewel for a second then grabbed it. When he grabbed, he was thrown into the wall by an unknown force.
"Owwww. Okay. That hurt." Dark was rubbing the back of his neck and complaining at the same time, until he heard a small groan near where he hit the wall.
"Huh?" Dark said as he looked to where the sound was coming from. "Daisuke!" Dark's eyes widened as he saw his other half sitting on the ground rubbing his back. The redhead was startled when he looked up and saw Dark in front of him.
"Dark!"
The two just sat there for a few minutes in disbelief.
"Dark…How did this happen?"
"How should I know?"
"I think it could've been the jewel…"
"If you thought that, why'd you ask me?"
"I don't know."
"Well, we can get the jewel and head back home."
"Okay."
Dark grabbed the jewel and Daisuke and flew back to the house. He landed on the doorstep and told Daisuke to go first. When they entered, they were greeted by Emiko.
"Daisuke! You got the …" Emiko stopped and stared at the two in front of her. "Daisuke…Dark?"
"Yes?"
"Yes Mom?"
"Why are both of you here?"
"I think the jewel did it."
Emiko stood in disbelief for a few minutes while she processed what happened.
"… Okay…So, you and Dark separated…Oh dear…" Emiko was now, a little panicky. "Umm, what are we going to do! You two can't be separated…It's NEVER happened before…" She was rambling to herself for a few minutes until Dark cut in.
"Emiko?"
"Yes?"
"Are you okay?"
"Not sure. You two are…separated…It's just… unbelievable…But, since it's very late and the problem will still be here in the morning. We can deal with it then. I think we should go to bed now."
"Okay. Good night Mom." Daisuke said as he headed for the stairs.
"Good night Dai." Emiko said as she kissed the top of her son's head.
"Umm, where am I sleeping?"
"Oh!" Emiko started. "Umm, you can go with Daisuke.
"Okay."
To think, if i had actually put up the wrong chapter...How lost you people would be...
