"Dai-su-ke." Hikari sang out as said red-head leaped into the room, robotic dog hanging onto the sleeve of his arm. "It's nice to see you again too, munchkin." She finished sarcastically as Daisuke fainted from shock.
Taking advantage of the situation, Dark took over Daisuke's body, standing up in his form, arms crossed.
"Dark." Hikari spit, "So nice to see you again." She spoke sarcastically, venom filling her voice. "You can't control me anymore. I belong to myself."
"How?" Dark demanded, "How could that be true?"
"The only way to break the curse is to be born into the family I served. I was born as Hikari Niwa. I was born into the family I served for generations, and thus, the curse was broken. I no longer serve you, nor the Niwas. Only myself." Hikari spat angrily, explaining her reason. "The book is long gone. I threw it out 40 years ago; into the ocean. So no one could ever find it again." She finished, glaring at Dark.
"That's impossible!" The Thief protested.
"You're impossible!" The female protested back, though her comeback was a bit lame. "I'm just stating a fact!"
"And how can I believe you?!"
"You can't feel my connection to you anymore! Can you?! That's because there is no connection anymore!" Hikari shouted, their voices rising with each sentence sent back and forth at the other.
"But-" Dark, once more, protested against the statement.
"I TOLD YOU!!" Hikari roared, and Dark shrunk back from the furious woman. "My curse is broken; I belong to no one but myself now!" She screamed loudly, her voice nearly breaking Dark's eardrums from the extreme volume.
"Okay, okay!" Dark put his hands up in defeat, "Jeez, I get your point Hikari-chan."
"And don't call me Hikari-chan!" She roared again, glaring daggers at the Phantom Thief.
"Fine, fine, Hikari-kun, better?" Dark asked sarcastically.
"Much." Hikari said smugly; glad to have been able to make Dark do something she wanted him to do for once in his entire life. (And that's a lot of generations of being ignored too.)

"Satoshi-sama..." Satoshi cringed at the sickly sweet sounding voice coming from the curse inside of him, "It's my turn to come out and play with the Thief." The young Hikari felt a sharp pain in his chest, and he gasped, slamming his fist against the wall.
"No...not now Krad..." He muttered, falling to the ground hopelessly as Krad began to take over his body.
"My Hikari-chan is here, you would be smart to not deny me the right to see her." Krad smirked, standing at his full height, seeing Dark hide his Hikari-chan behind a pillar.
Hikari pushed back, coming out on the other side of the pillar, grinning as she saw the blond angel. "Krad!" She called happily, eyes glittering in joy. "Hey!" She snarled as Dark tried grabbing her, "You don't own me anymore! We went through that damn it!" She growled.
"Then why the hell are you here?!" Dark exploded.
"Because you dragged me here, you idiotic thief!" Hikari exploded back at him.
"No I didn't!" Dark argued.
Hikari sighed in anger, glaring at him again. If looks could kill, Dark would be about 30 feet back, and 6 feet under. She slowly raised her palm, and it appeared as though she was going to slap him, but she didn't. She did the next best thing. She punched him hard.
"What the hell was that for?!" Dark yelled, holding his nose, which was bleeding profusely.
"For being an ass!" Hikari retorted, turning away from the Phantom Thief, walking towards his opposite, hips swinging just to piss him off. He watched with the painting in his arm, before snarling, leaping backwards through the window, Wiz becoming his wings and he flew off, leaving the two to themselves.
Krad was about to follow, despite his Hikari being there, as it was his job to protect the Hikari art works and destroy Dark, but his Hikari held him back, her hand resting lightly on his arm. "Krad-kun..." Hikari whispered sadly, "Save it for another day...please...for me?" She asked quietly, leaning her head against his arm, her arm now wrapping around his waist.
"Just this once," He whispered back, "Just for you." He kissed the top of her head, turning to face her, wrapping both of his arms around her, face nuzzled gently into her shimmering, onyx hair. "Any reason Mousy was so angry?" Krad let out a small chuckle as Hikari sighed.
"He's just mad that I'm not his slave anymore." Her head tilted up, and a small grinned played on her face, "I'm free from the curse Krad-kun, I'm free from my curse forever." She rested her head back onto his chest, his steady breathing soothing her quickly. She let out another sigh, but this one was a content sigh, she was happy just standing there in the arms of her love.

"Damn it!" Dark cursed, landing on the balcony outside Daisuke's room.
'Dark?' Daisuke asked, 'Calm down, what's so wrong with Hikari not being your assistant?'
"Daisuke. She was never my assistant. I lied. She was created by the Hikari's to serve the Niwas, why, I don't really know. But that's why she was created. She was given to us as a gift, before all this happened. Before Krad and I were enemies. Before the family feud began. She was meant to serve me for eternity, and she obviously found a way to break that curse of hers." Dark answered, changing back into Daisuke by picturing Hikari in his thoughts.

Hikari closed her eyes in bliss as Krad's lips connected with her own, a strange feeling surging through her body. They broke apart soon, gasping for air before kissing again. She groaned as Krad's lips went down to her chin, and then down her neck, resting at her collarbone, nipping and teasing her with the small bites and light kisses. "K-Krad..." She moaned, liking the feeling that sent fire through her veins, and her pulse to race as her heart beat faster and faster with every passing second that he gave her such treatment.
"I love you." His lips moved to her ear lobe, nibbling on the soft skin, and her shoulders dropped as she tried to hold back a pleasurable moan.
"I love you-" She gasped, "-too!" She groaned, leaning into him, small noises coming from her.
Krad pulled back with a grunt, moving backwards, his face showing pain. "Why are you interfering?!" He yelled out loud.
"Krad-kun..." she mumbled as a blue light enveloped him, and he gave a small, bitter smile to her.
"Gomen." The words faded as Satoshi took over again, falling to the floor in a heap. Hikari ran over to help him, since he was Krad's tamer, she felt obliged to do that for him. Even if that meant Satoshi didn't really want help in the first place, especially from her.

End of chapter...four I think? Anything for You is the name of this chapter if you couldn't tell .
Anyway, once more, as disclaimer, I do not own DNAngel, nor have I ever claimed to.
Here's the backstage scene for this chapter, brought to you by, once more, Nikster Productions.
"Make-out session with Kraddy-kins!!" Hikari cheered, just to annoy the sulking Dark Mousy sitting in the chair diagonal to her.
"Why do I have to be such an ass to Hikari-chan...?" Dark muttered to himself, sulking.
"Because it says so in the script, duh." Satoshi rolled his eyes at the Phantom Thief, who never seemed to have a brain for anything other than girls and stealing.
"And don't call me Hikari-chan!" Hikari snapped at the purple haired male, glaring at him.
"I faint? At the beginning of the episode? Wwhhyyyyyy??" Daisuke whined, closing his script book with a thud, dropping it on the table with another thud.
"Aw, suck it up pumpkin." Hikari smirked smugly, "I get to be angry at Dark! Yay!" The black haired girl cheered once more, "I love this chapter!" She cried out in joy.
"I'm glad you do, love." Krad smirked at Dark's bright red in rage face as he sat closer to the female, wrapping his arm around her waist, nuzzling his face into her light nectarine-smelling hair. "Aishiteru." He smiled into her hair, whispering the words.
"Aishiteru, Krad-kun." She whispered back, sighing in content.
The couple ignored the furious glares sent towards them by a raging Dark Mousy.
Satoshi and Daisuke shook their heads at the man, facing each other and talking about something, ignoring everything else around them.
