Arranged Marriage
Chapter Thirteen
"What do you want?" Asked Riku.
"Nothing much , it;s just that it's time to play my game." Said Dark mischieviously.
"A-And just what kind of twisted game is it?" Asked Riku , as Dark smirked.
Dark and Riku's Pov
The room was silent for a few moments before Dark began speaking.
"Okay , the game is..." Dark trailed off.
"Is what?" Asked Riku now getting impatient.
"I'll just tell you later since the kid isn't here." Said Dark.
"Grrrrr! You-You , just tell me!" Shouted Riku.
Dark ignored Riku and acted as if she wasn't there until there was a knock on the door.
The two turned their attention to it and waited.
'Knock , knock , knock...'
Dark got up from his seat and opened the door slowly , making sure that Satoshi was gone.
"Dark , what are you doing?" Asked Daisuke , squeezing through the small space Dark left between the door.
"I was looking out for Satoshi." Said Dark.
"Satoshi? Oh , I remember now , he's the one you used to steal stuff from right?" Asked Daisuke , taking a seat on Dark's bed.
"Yeah , that's the one. By the way , now that you're here I can start announcing the game rules and such." Said Dark.
Riku and Daisuke looked at Dark as they spotted Dark's trademark smirk.
/ "This won't go so well , will it?" / Thought Riku and Daisuke as Dark's smirk grew even more confident looking.
"The winner of the game will be determined through three rounds , the point of the game is to be extremely quiet , the first person to make a sound three times loses , the one that stays quiet the longest wins." Dark said.
"Are there any rules?" Asked Riku.
"The rules are that anything goes , you can annoy your opponent to make him speak , you can even find other ways to make them speak , but just as long as you don't speak. I've already told everybody in the palace about the game so they'll report the scores every hour in the living room. But we all stay in the living room until the game is over unless it's an emergency.: Explained Dark.
"What about using the bathroom? Would that be considered an emergency?" Asked Riku.
"Yeah but when you need to go you have to use the one right next to the living room." Said Dark.
"Okay then , when does this game start?"
"Tomorrow." Said Dark.
Satoshi's Pov
Satoshi had been listening to them through the other room and was wondering what they were talking about.
/ "Game?" / Wondered Satoshi.
Satoshi backed away from the wall and left the room silently.
Dark , Riku's and Daisuke's Pov
/ "Tomorrow?" / Thought Daisuke and Riku in unison.
"Why so soon?" Asked Riku , a worried look on her face.
"Because this way , you're not prepared and that gives me an advantage." Replied Dark.
"Daaark! Why did you have to make this gamme so hard?" Whined Daisuke.
"Hard?" Questioned Riku.
"Yes , Miss Riku don't you realize why he chose this game?" Asked Daisuke looking in Riku's direction.
"No , I don't why?" Asked Riku her face holding a look of pure confusion.
"He chose it because he can get on our nerves easily and that way he can make us yell at him even though we're supposed to be si---" Daisuke paused.
Wham!
"--lent." Finished Daisuke as he fell to the floor.
"Dark! Why did you hit him?" Shouted Riku.
"I hit him because he was getting on MY nerves." Said Dark as a look of annoyance appeared on his face.
"Ughhh..." Groaned Daisuke as he lay on the ground with swirls in his eyes.
"Anyways , he'll be fine so just let him rest." Said Dark as he left his room.
Riku and Mio's Pov
Riku soon left the room also and she headed for her room when she was stopped by someones hand on her shoulder.
Riku turned around and saw Mio.
Riku's expression turned into one of disgust.
"Where's my necklace?" Asked Riku.
"If you want it so badly then I suggest that you win this game of yours." Said Mio with an evil smirk on her face.
"Grrr..." Growled Riku as she glared at Mio.
"Why do you want me to win so badly anyways?" Asked Riku.
"Isn't it obvious? I want you to win so that Dark won't have to marry you , and he'll be forced to give you up because of the game rules." Said Mio.
"And How is that supposed to benefit you?" Asked Riku.
"Sigh Do I have to explain everything to you? It helps me because I love Dark , so if he's forced to give you up then I'll have a better chance with him." Explained Mio.
Riku stopped glaring and had a sudden calming aura about her.
Riku smiled and spoke.
"If that's all then you don't have to worry , caus I want to win this game anyways." Said Riku.
Mio suddenly had a look of confusion on her face bafore she spoke again.
"So , you're saying that you doin't want to marry Dark?" Asked Mio.
"Yeah." Replied Riku.
"Oh , I see so I don't have to worry." Said Mio.
"So does this mean that we're not enemies anymore?" Asked Riku.
"Don't say that , we're always going to be rivals , so until you win this game I'll be keeping that necklace of yours." Said Mio as she ran away from Riku and headed to the other side of the palace.
"Dammit!" Shouted Riku , before she walked back to her room.
Daisuke's Pov ( 8:33 PM )
"Uwaaah?" Said Daisuke as he finally woke up.
"What am I doing in Dark's roo--" Daisuke cut himself off as he remembered what Dark did.
"Daaark!" Shouted Daisuke in frustration.
"Be quiet dammit!" Shouted Dark.
"Dark? Where are you?" Asked Daisuke as he looked around the room but spotted nothing but darkness.
"Up here." Said Dark from his bed.
"Oh , where's Miss Riku?" Asled Daisuke.
"She's sleeping in her room like any normal person." Said Dark.
"Sleeping? What time is it?" Asked Daisuke.
"It's 8:35 PM ." Replied Dark.
"8:35? I've been out that long?" Said Daisuke as a shocked expression appeared on his face.
"Yeah , so shut up and go back to sleep! I'm tired of answering your questions!" Shouted Dark annoyed.
/ "Could've at least offered me a blanket since I'm here." / Thought Daisuke as he lay on the floor again.
