A/N: Hi everyone. An update! Let's thank Tenshi for our choice of song this time: Wait and Bleed by Slipknot. I was in a tight spot that time. I didn't want to put songs from the same band, though they match quite nicely. Please, if you want some songs in the fic, review and tell me.
Disclaimer: sigh Does it look like I'll write fanfiction if I own DNAngel? Plus, I'm not a good singer; therefore I don't own Wait and Bleed either.
Dark had looked all over Azumano day and night for the owner of that angelic voice, but no matter where he went, he couldn't find that person. The only place he hadn't looked was the part of town where Daisuke lives and nobody over there had that kind of voice full of sadness and loneliness. Dark sighed. He might as well go there, after all, if the voice weren't in Azumano, why would the gods bring him back here?
In the afternoon sun, Dark hid in the shadows to sprout his great black wings. His black wings. Not With's, his own. As the wings help him take flight, Dark decided to go see Daisuke first. He needed to see his tamer, who knew what Krad could've done to him.
The flirtatious teen landed on the roof of a building near the school and looked at the Grand Tower of Azumano. It was 4:35 p.m. School is over in about five more minutes. Sitting down, Dark gathered his thoughts and wondered where else he missed for the mysterious 'girl'. Dark had dubbed the owner as a girl. No boy could've gotten such a soft, pretty voice and an emotional one at that. The only boy who did was Daisuke and Dark was pretty sure that Daisuke was happy, now that Riku belonged to himself only.
Ding Dong Ding DingThe bell finally rang and Dark watched as students piled out of classes and the school. He watched as a blob of sky blue hair disappear behind the gates and he waited for the bright red hair to appear. He wasn't disappointed and he saw Daisuke walking alone. Weird. Daisuke was the type of person who shines and is really nice, someone that draws others to him, not being alone. Something was definitely weird. Besides the lack of companions, Daisuke had no expression on his face. An indifferent mask, if you wish.
Dark was about to go confront Daisuke when he saw Satoshi running towards Daisuke and leant down. From Dark's point of view, it looked like a deep, passionate kiss, but that wasn't really the case. Dark was just too predictable. In actuality, Satoshi was concerned about Daisuke. He was going to face Daisuke during lunch, but he forgot about it. Then he had to drop off a letter before a time limit. So when Satoshi saw Daisuke's tears in his eyes, Satoshi immediately assumed the worse and he rushed over. But Dark didn't know all this. And for some reason, the sight of them two kissing brought up a strange emotion in him.
I've felt the hate rise up in me...
Kneel down and clear the stone of leaves...
I wander out where you can't see...
Inside my shell, I wait and bleed...
'What was it that I felt? Jealousy? Possessive? Why?' Dark questioned himself. Finding no answer, Dark didn't want to see Daisuke yet. He steeled himself away and stretched his wings again to fly. The slight breeze in the sky comforted Dark a little and he circled around before landing into some random alley. He saw a couple kissing and his thoughts strayed back towards the direction of Daisuke.
Why was Daisuke kissing Satoshi? Did he forget all those times that he tried to kill him? They don't even make a good couple. Society won't let them be together. It's just doomed in the end…. But why was Dark having such thoughts? 'It's not like I love him or anything… Right? … Or maybe I do. I can't just let Satoshi have him.' Resentment towards Satoshi rose and Dark forgot about the 'girl'.
Goodbye!
I wipe it off on tile, the light is brighter this time
everything is 3D blasphemy
my eyes are red and gold, the hair is standing straight up
Dark was confused at his possessiveness. When had his desire for Daisuke began? Dark couldn't love anyone. His eternity with the humankind showed him that humans were greedy, selfish creatures by nature. Only some had enough self-control to hold it back at times. And now, Dark had fallen in love! With a boy, no less.
This is not the way I pictured me
I CAN'T CONTROL MY SHAKES!
How the hell did I get here?
Something about this, so very wrong...
I have to laugh out loud, I wish I didn't like this
is it a dream or a memory?
Suddenly, thoughts of those bubbly, drooling fan girls of his came to mind. They say they're in love with him. Is that what love meant? Treat them like a god? Go into danger for someone that would probably never look your way? Worshipping the ground they walk on? The clothes they wear? The food they eat? If that was the way love is. Dark prefer to be a loveless entity.
Love was useless. Dark supposed that was the right term. Dark had fallen in love once, too. With his first tamer, the person was like Daisuke. Maybe that was why Dark liked him. Dark had crushed on Akira Niwa because of his personality. He was different from Krad and the Hikari that created the Black Wings. Something new and fresh that drew Dark quickly to him.
Dark had felt excruciating pain when Akira confessed his love to a girl. They were happily dating and Akira didn't tell his lover about Dark yet. He knew the pain that Dark felt, but never the reason why. He didn't bother to ask about it either. The uncaring attitude and the rejection was all that Dark could take. That was when Dark had decided to be a ladies' man and never let anyone get close to him and hurt him the way that the first Niwa had. That had changed when he met Daisuke though.
GET OUTTA MY HEAD CUZ I DON'T NEED THIS!
Why I didn't I see this?
I'm a victim - Manchurian Candidate
I - HAVE - SINNED - BY - JUST
Making' my mind up and taking' your breath away
'Whoever learns a thing about love? It all just comes back. Does anyone even know the true definition of love?' These types of thoughts chased each other around in Dark's mind. Dark wondered if the telepathic bond between himself and Daisuke was still there and if Daisuke heard his thoughts at all. Giving a try, Dark thought, 'Daisuke, are you there? Can you hear me? I'm back!' No response came and Dark tried again. Nothing ever came. Pangs of abandonment came relentlessly and Dark thought it came close to rejection.
GOODBYE!
You haven't learned a thing
I haven't changed a thing
my flesh was in my bones
the pain was always free
The moment Daisuke walked outside of school, he felt a gaze directed at him. Meekly, Daisuke stared at the floor, praying that whoever was staring would quit it and back off. Kami ignored his call and he wondered if Kami even existed. It felt like a hungry look, a lustful look. Never feeling that before, Daisuke was scared. What if it was a stalker or a rapist? Daisuke could never defend himself. He was simply too weak.
Tears of fear sprang up and a burning feeling was in his nose. As Daisuke was about to wipe his tears clean, he felt a hand clamp down on his shoulder. Freezing, Daisuke panicked inside. 'Oh no! Oh no! Oh no! The stalker! The rapist! What am I going to do? Save me, someone! Help!' Daisuke closed his eyes, never seeing the worried look that Satoshi gave him.
"Daisuke? Are you okay?" Satoshi asked. His fret grew when Daisuke closed his eyes and his body was stiff. He was relieved, however, when Daisuke peeked between his eyes at Satoshi. Slowly calming down and relaxing, Daisuke replied.
"Satoshi? Is that you? Yes, I'm okay." Daisuke said. He then answered Satoshi's concerned interrogation. Getting tired with all the questions, Daisuke raised up a hand for all movements to cease. Satoshi stopped and waited for Daisuke to talk. Before Daisuke could answer though, a strange emotion boiled in his gut.
A terrible hatred. Or was that jealousy? Was it directed at him or at Satoshi? Suddenly, forgotten memories became unforgotten. Images, scenes, events, they all came rushing back and assaulted Daisuke's mind and heart. Different feelings that were bottled up before came and drowned inside Daisuke's spirit. All the happiness, love, and pride. All the sadness, hatred, anger. They all came. Daisuke was overwhelmed at all these sensations. Blackness started swallowing the pictures and Daisuke blacked out.
I've felt the hate rise up in me...
Kneel down and clear the stone of leaves...
I wander out where you can't see...
Inside my shell, I wait and bleed...
AND IT WAITS FOR YOU!
Satoshi watched as Daisuke rose up a hand to interrupt him. He watched as Daisuke opened his mouth to talk. He watched as the hand dropped and the mouth stayed open and he watched as a strange shadow enter Daisuke's mind. He looked on as Daisuke's face displayed numerous things and Satoshi wondered if Daisuke was finally remembering something. Nervousness built up inside him.
'If Daisuke were to remember everything, would he remember his love for Dark. If that were the case, Daisuke would fall back into his despair and never come back. I can't let him go again!' Satoshi thought. Before Daisuke could hit the ground from his fall, Satoshi picked him up. He looked towards the direction of the Niwa house and began his walk over there. Besides getting Daisuke home, he had to tell the Niwa family about his suspicion and worry.
A/N: When I read about how Satoshi is always cold and never let anyone near him, it makes me believe that Krad was there his whole life. I just included this opinion into the fic. I hope nobody minded. I forgot what those big, gigantic clock tower things were called. So I just called it Grand Tower of Azumano, or GTA for short. I don't exactly know the time when school let's out for them, but in the anime, the sun is setting (I think). I separated the verses differently than the actual song. I'm rambling here.
