Darks head snapped up when Satoshi called his name. "Eh?"
"Whats going on?"
"Like you want to know. You just want to exploit whatever it is."
Dark tuned his mind inward where Dai was curled in a ball, shivering and shaking like mad,muttering in a scared manner.
'Dai.' Dais head shot up. 'Im sorry but I have to do this. It would be better that you're out during this instead of a dark corner of my mind. Im really sorry about this little buddy.' He soothed as he relinquished control to Dai.
Satoshi watched in wonder as Darks body seemed to spasm and shrink. His purple hair retracted and turned to red spikes. His eyes went from purple to red. Before Satoshi could say anything, Daisuke stood infront of him shaking.
"Niwa-kun?" Dai's head shot up again and looked at him in such a scared manner it broke even the cold Hiwatari's heart. "Are you okay?"
Daisuke sat against the furthest wall from the windows, the only wall with no windows, and wrapped his arms around his knees that were close to his chest. "No, Hiwatari-kun." His voice was shaking, too. "Now you know what Im afraid of."
Hiwatari just watched Dai shake. 'A storm? Niwa's afraid of a storm?'
"But why? Why a storm, Niwa-kun?" He walked over to Dai and sat on his left.
"When I was a baby my mom accidently left my window open when a storm came. I had my own room already, and a crib. The crib was right next to the window. I cried as the rain fell on me soaking the whole thing and even screamed during the lightning. No one heard me through the whole two hours of the storm. When my dad came to check on me he found me passed out from screaming and from being so cold. My mom had forgotten to turn on the baby moniter. A coupled weks ago when that storm came, Dark was flying home from that museum way out there and the storm started up half way home. Lightning hit his wing and we went down. Thats why the next day I didnt come to school. Both Dark and I were sick and I was traumatized. I was so scared of the storm that continued the next day I didnt get out of bed. I barely moved."
"Im sorry, Niwa-kun. Why, then did your mother send you? Its been all over the news about this storm."
"Mom doesnt know. Dark is the only on in the family who knows. I understood the fact that if I told mom and the rest of them it would keep Dark from stealing, it would keep the family away from their heritage." He shrugged. "I guess I was just afraid they'd be mad at me for fearing something so simple."
"Well, Niwa-kun, I wont judge you. I know what its like to have an odd fear. Wouldn't you agree?"
"No. You have ample reason to fear being alone. You were alone all of your life. You know what its like to be alone and have nothing there with you. I can understand why you'd fear that. Im scared of jumping atoms and the sound they make."
"Whatever you say, Niwa-kun. Why do you have your school bag with you?"
"I was studying in the park before the...um this." that made Satoshi chuckle. "I didnt get very far though."
"Do you need any help?"
"I dont thin so Hiwatari-kun. Its just that the simple things seem to be slipping through my fingers."
"Like what, Niwa-kun. Maybe I can help, still."
"Da Vinci did the Mona Lisa and what?"
"He did a lot of work but I think you're thinking of the Last Supper."
"Okay. And what Did Michelangelo do? I cant remember."
"He did the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. Did you know they found reasonable proof to say he laid on his back to paint all of the roof?"
"Wow." Dai's eyes were wide. "You're an amazing painter, Hiwatari-kun, can you do that?"
"I havent tried that, Niwa-kun." Dai kind of blushed at that and shut up. "Come on Niwa-kun talk. We're locked in this room for the night. I really dont want to be talking to a wall for the remainder of the night."
Dai laughed. "I cant imagine you talking to a wall, Hiwatari-kun. You dont seem lke the kind of person to be...well..." He blushed again. "To be spontanious and hyper."
"Spontanious? What made you think I wanted to go to school again?"
"You were alone not spontanious."
Satoshi 'hmm'-ed trying to think of a time he was spontanious. "I have nothing."
"Told you that you werent..."Dai didnt get to finish because a loud grumble of thunder shook the room. Dai 'Eep'-ed and tried to scoot further away from the windows and Satoshi.
Purple? Just keep reading please. I have nothing to say...besides the song Remember the Name by Fort Minor is totally cool
