Thank you for all the reviews! I still get amazed about how many I get right after I post a new chapter.
I know in the last chapter I put a bit of shonen-ai-ish parts but I did that on purpose...

Chapter 7
Emiko was on her knees. She didn't know what to think, everything was confusing. Satoshi looked solemn, Daisuke seemed worried and Kosuke was embarrassed. She slowly stood up and walked to her husband. "You knew?" she asked Kosuke. He quietly nodded and Emiko's face fell.
Daisuke walked over by his mom. Emiko looked up into his shining blue eyes and sighed. "How could I miss it? How could I mistake my own son?"
"Mrs. Niwa," Satoshi headed to her but she looked away. He hung his head. I knew she wouldn't accept me. Satoshi thought, glancing back at Emiko. She still wouldn't look at him.
"How could this happen?"
"That necklace you wanted me to steal." Daisuke told her. "Each of us still has the piece that broke. But that thing made us switch, it's not Satoshi's fault." Emiko's gaze traveled up Satoshi.
"Why didn't you tell me?" she asked as calmly as she could.
At first, Satoshi couldn't speak. Finally, he opened his mouth. "I couldn't. All you ever talk about is how unsafe it is for me to be near all of you." he said. "I made an agreement with Dark that I wouldn't touch Daisuke when he's not Dark. That means this house is safe unless Dark flies into it."
"That's only half of what I'm afraid of." Emiko's voice was still motherly. "I'm afraid of your other side."
"I understand..." Satoshi suddenly felt a hand on his shoulder.
"Well, you have to. We know you think that you can control your other side but he's always going to show up." Kosuke explained. "Dark and Krad are like any other persons' personalities. You can hide it for a little while but your true disposition will come out eventually."
"Yeah but I can hold it if I needed to!"
"Satoshi, I trust you enough to believe you. You don't have to worry." Daisuke looked back at him.
"The only reason you can trust me is because you have the same condition." Satoshi got up to ran up to Daisuke's room but tripped. Moments later, he opened his eyes to see he was leaning against Emiko.
"Don't worry; we'll learn to trust you too." She patted his back. Satoshi stayed against Daisuke's mom, she was so warm, so comforting. It was different than what he was used to. Emiko looked a little worried but pulled Satoshi close. "You've never had a chance to feel what it was like to have a mom, did you?"
Satoshi shook his head. Daisuke's mom softly pushed him off her by his shoulders and held up his chin. Satoshi looked like a total wreak. His eyes were red and tears were flowing down his cheeks. He turned his head away; he never wanted to be seen like this, even if he was in Daisuke's body. "Why don't you boys go to bed? You have school in the morning."
They both nodded. Daisuke waved to Satoshi as he walked up the stairs. Satoshi softly waved back and buried his face in his pillow. Emiko and Kosuke both watched them. She went to go talk to Satoshi but Daisuke's dad held her from going. "Leave him." he whispered and left the room. Emiko followed him but stopped to see Satoshi one more time.
Daisuke laid in his bed, staring at the ceiling. "Wow...I feel bad for Satoshi."
Don't be. He can manage himself. Krad told Daisuke.
But...he seems so alone. Daisuke suddenly felt a wave of exhaustion and fell asleep.
"Satoshi-san, Satoshi-san, wait up!" A group of girls shouted. Daisuke turned his head to see the waving at him, but kept walking. He walked to his locker and lifted the door, to see a few love letters.
"Why can't they understand no means no." he growled. Placing a few school books in there, he left for the stairs. As he walked down, a certain red head was coming. He seemed a bit flustered. "Daisuke, do you two ever quit fighting?" he asked, chuckling.
"Sorry Satoshi," he looked up and smiled at Daisuke. "Dark's just kind of angry. I don't know why though..."
Daisuke chuckled and patted the other Daisuke on the shoulder. "Don't worry; I know you'll get through it. You have to." he winked.
"Thanks, Satoshi." Daisuke giggled. "Hey, the Harada twins and I were going out to eat. Wanna come?"
"Sure." he shrugged. "I don't see why not."
"YAY! We'll meet at my house at six, alright, Satoshi?"
"Six." he nodded and walked down the steps. Finally walking out of the doors, he ignored the girls from the other school waiting for him. As he walked past a few buildings, he suddenly felt an odd feeling in his chest. "Damn it..." He quickly rushed into and ally.
Clutching his chest, Daisuke growled. "For what purpose do you have to disturb me now?" With another wave of pain shooting through his chest, Satoshi fell against the wall. Gasping for breath, he wondered what was going on.
"Do I need a reason?" Krad chuckled. "As long as that Niwa is included, that's all the reason I need."
"That's not a reason!" he almost shouted. Daisuke pushed off the wall, trying to stand up right. "Quit it," he scowled. "It...feels like you're trying...to rip my insides..."
Suddenly, he stood up straight, his eyes widened, filled with tears. "I don't care if I rip you or not. So just shut the hell up so I can enjoy myself."
Daisuke's eyes snapped open. "W-What was that?" he asked himself. Sweat was covering his forehead. Daisuke removed his blanket because he felt to warm at the moment. Glancing at the clock, it read 6:30. "I might as well just get up." Daisuke stretched and got off his bed. He scratched his head, searching through his dresser. Was that a dream...or a memory? He asked himself, pulling out his uniform.
Grabbing the clothes he gathered, Daisuke walked to the bathroom. He turned the water on to wash his face. Daisuke found a towel and wiped it all off, looking up at the mirror. It still surprised him to look in a mirror and see a blue haired, crystal eyed, handsome, mature Satoshi instead of his normal red mess of hair and big crimson eyes. Suddenly, Daisuke remembered something.
"Two months ago, I invited Satoshi to come out to eat with us at the stairs." His face fell and Daisuke held the sink. "So...it was a memory." Daisuke looked up at the mirror. "I'm sorry, Satoshi." He quickly threw on his uniform and jumped down the stairs. "Wow...Mom's not even up."
From the corner of his eye, he saw Satoshi sleeping. Daisuke quietly walked over to him and sat on the table in front of the couch. "I've never seen you this relaxed." he chuckled and watched his friend. Daisuke was used to seeing such sad eyes from him. "Maybe he's having a good dream." Holding his head in his hands, Daisuke sighed. "Where's mom? ...Hey, a penny."
He bent down to grab it but up on the couch, Satoshi was stirring. Right as he opened his eyes, Daisuke was getting up and their eyes met. Both of them froze for a minute. "What are you doing?" Satoshi asked.
"Oh, I-um...well, you see..." Daisuke held up his hand. "I found a penny."
Satoshi raised his eyebrows. "Ok then..." he sat up. Daisuke was still holding up the penny, chuckling like an idiot. "Quit it." Satoshi growled, poking Daisuke's shoulder.
"Fine. Ow, ow, ow, ow. Stop, that hurts..." swatting away Satoshi's hand, Daisuke stood up and walked to the kitchen. "Want something for breakfast?"
"Um...toast, I guess." Satoshi sat up, scratching the back of his head. He watched Daisuke get out the bread.
"Okie dokie. Now you go get ready and I'll make us some breakfast." Satoshi shrugged and walked upstairs. It took him a few minutes to get ready. As he walked down the stairs, there was a scream. Satoshi ran down the stairs to see that the toaster was on fire.
"How the hell did you manage to do that?" Satoshi shouted. Emiko, Kosuke and Daiki ran down and shouted when they saw the fire.
Kosuke grabbed the fire extinguisher and pushed Daisuke to the side. "Daisuke, didn't we tell you not to try to cook...now we have to get another toaster." Emiko told Daisuke.
"I'm sorry, mom..." But then, Emiko hugged Daisuke tightly and pinched his cheeks. "What was that for?" Daisuke stepped back, trying to escape from his mom.
"You're just so cute like that." giggling, she threw the two boys an apple. "You have to go. Now get out of here and go." The two boys nodded and walked to the train station. Once they got there, there was a sign in front of the train they normally rode to get to their school. It said: "Down for engine problems. Sorry for the inconvience."
"Great." Daisuke rolled his eyes. "Well, what do you want to do?" He turned his head toward Satoshi.
A wide grin was placed on his face. "I'll race you." Satoshi chuckled.
"Oh, you're on." The two immediately began to run. For the first five minutes, they were neck to neck. But then they came across narrow roads. The two boys pushed each other but Daisuke won and rushed down the ally. He heard Satoshi say, "Damn it." but never looked back. With a few minutes of more running, Daisuke wondered why Satoshi hadn't bothered him and looked behind his shoulder and Satoshi was no where in sight.
He looked up and gasped. There was Satoshi, running on the roof. He noticed Daisuke looking up and waved, chuckling. Daisuke shook his head as Satoshi jumped to another roof.
The school came into sight. "I'm gonna win!" Daisuke laughed but then, in the blink of an eye, Satoshi jumped down, a foot from Daisuke and chuckled.
"Think again." Trying to stop but he couldn't, Daisuke accidentally ran into a trash can and fell in. "Suave." Satoshi laughed before helping his friend up. Picking a crushed McDonalds bag of his head, Satoshi handed Daisuke the bag he dropped.
In school, Risa walked over to Daisuke, who was laying on his desk. "Is there something wrong?" she asked.
"No, I just had a bad morning."
"Like what?"
"Ah, nothing big. I caught the toaster on fire and fell in garbage." But Satoshi couldn't help but keep snickering every time he heard Daisuke complain.
Their next class was gym. While everyone was getting into their gym uniform, Takeshi walked in and began to laugh. "Guess what?" He seemed so excited but everyone in locker room all said, "What, Takeshi?" like they were zombies. "Thanks for the enthusiasm but have a brilliant idea. You guys want to hear it?" Everyone shrugged but he still told them. "Alright, I think that since all the girls are so excited about how Dark and that other guy come to our school, we should dress up like them and trick the girls."
"How the hell would we be able to do that?" Masahiro asked, putting on his gym shirt.
"We'll do it." Satoshi lazily raised his hand, the other was pointing to Daisuke.
"What?" Masahiro's jaw dropped.
"Wow, Dai. Would you two really do it?" Takeshi was as surprised as everyone else.
"Well, yeah." Satoshi shrugged.
"We will?" scowled Dai.
"Satoshi looked almost exactly like Dark in the play, right? Well, I bet he could look like K- I mean, that blonde one. And I've always wanted to dress up like Dark." Satoshi explained, making it sound as believable as possible. "Plus, my mom could make a really good disguise."
Everyone was petrified. No one thought that this would actually work. But Takeshi finally broke the silence. "Alright then!" he threw his fist in the air. " Mission "Trick all the girls into thinking the two really handsome dudes go to our school." has begun! You two," Takeshi pointed to Satoshi and Daisuke. "Meet me when school ends, we need to discuss the plan."
"I can't believe we're doing this." Daisuke sighed, carrying a bag of things they "needed" to look like Krad and Dark.
"It'll be fun, I guess. Anyway, we are the only guys that can do this."
Daisuke began to laugh. "Yeah, you're right. So...how long did it take my mom to make uniforms without any name tag?"
"About two hours. She thought it was a fun idea." Satoshi crossed his arms.
"My mom thinks everything is fun." muttered Daisuke, thinking back to the Dark commercial.
Second period came faster than they thought and they quickly ran to the bathrooms to "change". The boys changed clothes and hid the stuff behind a toilet. Daisuke smirked weakly at Satoshi as he transformed. He groaned softly as his hair grew long and blonde and he grew a foot taller. Next to him, Satoshi just leaned against the wall and transformed, trying to be calm about it.
At first, Daisuke thought too much about Riku and Krad took control. So did Dark. He looked over at Krad and burst in laughter. "Nice pants." He began to dance around, singing, "We wear short shorts!" Krad, on the other hand, was growling. Suddenly, he grabbed Dark by his neck and lifted him off the ground.
"Shut up, you damn bastard." Krad spat as he threw Dark against the walls.
"Why you-" Dark rubbed his neck, about to hit Krad.
Quit fighting! We just need to use your bodies for ten minutes. Both Daisuke and Satoshi shouted. The two older men turned on their heels, away from each other and crossed their arms. Seconds later, they turned back to each other and began laughing.
"Nice Dai." Satoshi covered his mouth.
"Yeah, you don't look any better." Daisuke sighed and picked up a beanie and put it on his head.
"What's with the hat?" Satoshi asked.
"Well, I thought they may think it's a bit weird if a high schooler had long hair like a girl."
"Smart thinking." The two nodded and walked out. They snuck into the boy's locker room and everyone froze.
Takeshi, filled with excitement, jumped up. "You guys look perfect! You looked almost like the real thing." His eyes were watering from the happiness. Satoshi and Daisuke nodded, trying not to talk. If the guys noticed their voices, they may figure out something's weird.
"How'd you guys get so tall?" Masahiro asked.
"Stilts." Satoshi quickly said.
"Well, how about your eyes being different." Yuuji asked Daisuke, who looked like Krad.
"Contacts."
"Masahiro, Nishimura, leave the men alone." Takeshi grabbed the by their ears and dragged them away.
"I guess we should get this done and over with." Satoshi sighed and sneaked out. They came to the opening of the girl's locker room and paused. Daisuke looked nervous, he was blushing madly.
They both walked into the room and put on the "older Senior" look. Finally getting to the room where the girls changed, they stopped and sighed. All the girls were in the middle of changing. It took a few moments for the girls to notice but all of them had looks of horror on their face. "See, I told you. This isn't the right room." Satoshi elbowed Daisuke and he chuckled softly.
"I guess not...this place is too confusing." He scratched the back of his neck. Daisuke looked out at the girls, trying to be calm. "Do any of you know where the supplies room is?"
Absolutely none of the girls answered. They all just stood there, mouths wide open. "No one? Maybe a teacher will know." Satoshi sighed and shook his head. The two began to leave but they checked to see what the girls were going to do. All of the girls, except Riku, were now right next to them, eyes shining with happiness.
"So you do know?" Daisuke asked kindly. Suddenly, all the girls jumped at them, hugging them or trying to get their attention.
"Are you guys really Dark and his friend?"
"Why are you at our school?"
"Ohmigod! You guys are so cute!"
"Can I have your hat?"
"PLEASE MARRY ME!"
Daisuke and Satoshi pushed them softly away. "Whoa, whoa. One at a time, please." Satoshi winked.
"Why would you want my hat?" Daisuke looked up, placing his hand on the hat. He looked down and Risa had starry eyes. Great, so she moved from Dark to Krad.
"Are you guys going to leave?" a blonde girl hugged Satoshi's arm.
"We don't want you to." Everyone else said.
"But, we're not part of your class." Daisuke chuckled softly.
"SO?" They all shouted. Satoshi and Daisuke looked at each other, holding in their laughter.
"I'm sorry but we have to go." They both turned but all girls tackled them and tried to kiss them. Most girls just got to Satoshi's face but one girl got Daisuke right on the lips. Satoshi and Daisuke shot up and ran out.
As they were running to the bathroom, Satoshi asked, "Hey, where did Riku go...Never mind, she probably went to tell."
"Who cares?" Daisuke shouted. "Some girl spit in my mouth!" He said right as they got into the bathroom. They both transformed back as soon as they could. "Satoshi, did you bring a toothbrush?"
During gym class, all the girls wouldn't shut up about they boy's visit and Riku seemed depressed because the teachers thought that he was neither loony or told her she was lying and it was just a prank. Takeshi smirked and walked over to them. " Mission accomplished." He high fived them.
Once gym was over, they all went to third period. The teacher seemed somewhat happier than usual. "Guess what, students? Tomorrow is going to be parent's day!" All of the students groaned. "And I thought we could twist up the old traditional parent day and do something fun so we'll miss the last five periods of school to have family competitions." Now, the whole class was cheering.
Daisuke and Satoshi were walking out the building and Satoshi asked, "Are you going to actually try to get my father to come?"
"Yeah."
"How? It's going to be impossible."
"I'll find a way." Daisuke smirked.
