Daisuke inner-yelled at Dark until he finally convinced him to take over again.
He and Satoshi were still trapped in the freezer. Daisuke desperately tried to get out while Satoshi sat in a corner writing his will on a piece of cardboard he ripped off a box of Insta-Bacon. Once he'd finished (there wasn't much to leave behind- he just left behind his mansion to his butler because he wasn't exactly sure what was inside it), he'd started writing about other things.
"'It's been a while now and I fear we may run out of rations'," he wrote. "'It's so cold… will we ever survive? Will we ever be found? I'm scared to think what might happen to us…'"
Daisuke glanced over at Satoshi who was writing so fast that his pen was beginning to smoke. "Satoshi, what are you writing?" he asked curiously and nervously.
"What's happening… someone will need to know if we don't get out here alive…" He shivered. "It's frigid. How long have we been in here?"
Daisuke looked at his watch, narrowing his eyes in an annoyed way. "Four and half minutes."
Satoshi glared at him, getting back to his writing. "'Will not hesitate to eat companion, if necessary.'"
"Well, I wouldn't worry too much," Daisuke said, giving up. "That was the last lunch shift and the lunch ladies and Mr. Intense always put the extra food in here. It won't be long before we're found."
"That's what everyone says before they DIE," Satoshi growled.
"Um… no it's not?" Daisuke said nervously. He decided to change the subject before things got ugly, as it looked as if Satoshi was about to say something in defense. "I hear that the best way to stay warm in circumstances like these is to huddle together."
Satoshi glared at Daisuke again. "That's completely stupid."
"It's better than death. I bet you need a hug anyway."
"I do not need a hug! Don't touch me!" Satoshi crab-walked backwards fairly quickly.
"Well you were the one who was so worried a second ago," Daisuke said angrily, covering himself in packs of meat to try and keep warm. It didn't really work, as it doesn't really give off any heat.
Wiz was having fun tanning himself in front Daisuke's window. He was as cozy as a rabbit-creature could be. His stomach was full of the delicious taste of one of Daisuke's paintings. Wiz knew he would be killed as soon as Daisuke got him, but now it was good enough to sleep away the hours comfortably.
Wiz hopped off the windowsill, as the sun had moved to the opposite side of the house, and walked away wishing Daisuke had a window on the other side of his room. Maybe he could make his own later. He could hear Daisuke's mom in the kitchen making cookies. Then the phone rang. Wiz went to answer it, then remembered he didn't have opposable thumbs. So Daisuke's mom picked it up.
"Hello, Niwa residents, Daisuke's mom speaking! How may I help you? ... Sorry, I've always wanted to say that. I tried to work at Burger King once just so I could, but I got kicked out because there was this wallaby that- Hmm? Daisuke did what? Skip class? Not my Daisuke! Daisuke loves school! And he's good at school! That's why he does all our taxes! If you're sure… Okay. Tootle-loo-skee!" She hung up cheerily, ignoring the secretary who was about to ask what in the name of all that is bright and beautiful is a tootle-loo-skee.
"I'll be back, Wiz! Watch the house!" She called, running outside to drive to the school even though she got her driver's license cut in half seventeen years ago.
"Hey, Risa," Riku said, sitting next to her sister in cooking.
"You're cramping my cool," Risa said, filing her nails.
"… Anyway," Riku continued, "Have you seen Daisuke anywhere?"
"I haven't!" Takeshi shouted, joining in.
Riku and Risa stared at him until Takeshi walked away.
"Maybe he got sick or something," Risa replied. "Why? Does it really matter?"
"Well, he was there at lunch. Actually, he's kind of been acting strangely all day. I haven't seen Lucy Samuels at all either," Riku noted.
Lucy Samuels is still lying unconscious in the school parking lot.
"She follows around Donis around a lot. Maybe she caught his stupid," Risa answered, shrugging.
"I guess… but that still doesn't explain Daisuke. I'm going to go see what happened."
"Okay, but Mr. Intense is going to kill you," Risa said, sliding her finger across her neck.
Riku half-grinned. "Unlike you, Mr. Intense actually likes me."
"It's really not a good thing if your Fun-Sucker's favorite," Risa shouted after her.
Unfortunately, 'Fun-Sucker' was standing right behind her, so Risa gets the experience of actually chopping cabbages.
"Do you suppose we'll ever get out?" Satoshi asked Daisuke.
"Satoshi, you just asked me that ten seconds ago, and what was my answer?" Daisuke growled, getting annoyed.
"'Satoshi, you just asked me that ten seconds ago'," Satoshi reiterated.
Daisuke resisted from punching Satoshi on his blue-haired head. "And what did I say before that?"
"'Perhaps.'"
"Right. So let's just keep waiting."
It was quiet… for a few seconds.
"Well, may I tell you about my depressing childhood?"
Daisuke blinked. "Why?"
"It kills time."
Daisuke nodded. "That it does."
And Satoshi was about to break out into a childhood of woe, when suddenly Riku burst in.
"I thought you two might be in here," Riku said.
"Riku! Wait, how did you know?" Daisuke asked.
"Girls get hunches nine times more than men. We're just weird that way," Riku replied with a shrug.
"Oh. Well yay for hunches!" Daisuke said, grinning.
Meanwhile, Satoshi was hugging Riku so hard she was turning the same color as his hair.
"Daisuke Middle Name Niwa! Why are you skipping class?!" Daisuke's mom shouted, suddenly entering the lunchroom with the random school principal and Mr. Intense.
"Mom! I got locked in the freaking freezer!" Daisuke shouted, trying not to get in trouble.
"And what were you doing in said freaking freezer?!" Mr. Intense shouted back. He never speaks, just shouts.
"Well… uh…" Daisuke faltered. "Um, Satoshi got locked in, so in attempt to get him out, I got locked in too!"
"Oh. Okay then," Mr. Intense shouted.
"Wait… aren't you going to ask Satoshi why he was in there?" Daisuke said frantically.
"Why would I do that? I like Satoshi," Mr. Intense shouted yet again.
So Daisuke went back to cooking with Riku and, because Mr. Intense is such a jerk, he stayed after school and chopped cabbages anyway.
"Heeey, Lucy! What are you doing in the parking lot? You're not a car!" said Takeshi brightly.
Lucy got up, blinking. "I just remember something coming at me quickly… and now here I am…"
"A squirrel peed on you," Takeshi said, still brightly.
"Ew! I'm not very happy!" Lucy began to cry.
"The squirrel was."
"So are you, clearly," Lucy growled.
"Yes. Well, bye!" Takeshi walked away to go hit on Daisuke's mom, who was waiting by a stop sign for Daisuke.
"I'm never letting you be me again," Daisuke growled.
Okay, okay. Sorry I almost got you killed.
"Thank you!" Daisuke shouted, scaring some pigeons and some other detentioned students walking by.
"Daisuke! There you are! Let's go!" his mom said quickly. Takeshi had been complimenting her poorly for the past three hours.
So they went home. Lucy was still in the parking lot trying to remember where she lived. But no one died, so I guess it was a good day.
This chapter needed a lot of fixing. I went back and fixed the others too. :)
