Chapter 8

(Satoshi's POV)

I opened my eyes wearily. Where was I? I looked around, taking in my surroundings. It was rather…dark. Why? I wondered. My thoughts were interrupted, however, when a sudden blinding light appeared out of nowhere in front of me. I squinted, trying to adjust to the sudden intense light. My eyes finally adjusted but I could still see some red dots in my vision. Although the red dots didn't disappear, and even though I couldn't see very well, I realized that I was in some kind of park and the light was the sunlight peering through the trees. Wasn't it dark before? What the hell happened! Then, I noticed that I was not alone.

The person in front of me was in a terrible state. Daisuke. My eyes widened as Daisuke lifted his hand and tried to touch me. He was so pathetic. He was desperate. And I knew, right now…he needed me. I tried to reach him. I wanted to hold him, to tell him that everything was alright, but a powerful hand grabbed my shoulders, preventing me from going to him. What the hell! What's the matter with me! I need to help Daisuke!

"Oh no you don't," a voice barked at me. Suddenly I was in darkness once again. I was back inside…somewhere…but the hand did not let me go.

"Is that you Krad? Let me go!" I repeatedly fought and writhed.

"I am not Krad and I will not let you go," the voice said simply.

Still struggling to have the invisible hand release me, I thought back, "If you're not Krad, then who are you? You sound a lot like him. Whoever you are, let me go! Daisuke's hurt!"

"Do you think I care if he's hurt?"

"Well you sound a lot different than Krad," I said sarcastically.

The voice was silent for a moment then it said quietly, "You're friend, Krad, is no longer here. He is… somewhere else."

"Then who are you?" I said rudely. I gave up struggling and stood still.

"That's a good boy. Now stay like that. Perhaps…we'll both play a game...later," the voice said.

"You didn't answer my question," I said sharply.

"I never knew that the Hikaris could be so…," the voice trailed off.

Why doesn't he answer the stupid fucking question! I thought angrily.

Abruptly, I felt fingers stroke my cheek for a moment, then dropped down onto my shoulder. I shuddered as I felt someone nibble my ear. I turned abruptly, expecting to see someone. No one was there…but I could hear…moans?

What the fuck? I thought. Now this was getting strange.

Then, there was something else I realized. I could still see Daisuke and feel everything but I wasn't exactly there. It was like that time when Krad took over my body when I was over at Daisuke's house. That's when Krad tried to rape poor Daisuke but I stopped him in time. He still held my outward appearance but it was him inside. But he let me feel everything. He wanted me to feel the joy of taking Daisuke's virginity…not that I liked it. Luckily he was unsuccessful because Dark came out and began to beat the crap out of the blonde…stealing a kiss in the process. I really hoped that this person wouldn't do the same to Daisuke and me.

"We are one, like you and Krad once were," the voice said. The voice echoed all around me. I perked my ears, straining to hear anything else to give me the location of this person.

"What's your name?" I asked cautiously.

Suddenly, a blonde man appeared a few yards away. He was Krad! I narrowed my eyes, crossing my arms. That liar, I thought.

"You told me you weren't Krad," I accused him as he strolled across the dark floor. Wait, when did this place have a floor! I don't get it. He circled me, looking at me making me feel…dirty. I had a strong urge to take a shower right now.

"I'm not," the man said smoothly. He stood in front of me and eyed me up and down.

I was getting slightly annoyed. What is he doing and why is he looking at me like that? I thought. "Well you look like him," I pointed out as his eyes slowly trailed up my neck. His eyes looked appraisingly into my eyes and shrugged.

"I do look like him, but I am not him."

"So you're his twin?" I asked surprised.

"I can't believe you forgot so easily. Do you not remember what happened at your school?"

"So you're his twin?" I repeated irritably. This man doesn't know how to give a straight answer.

"No."

"Then will you explain and not leave these holes for me to fill? I may be good at filling holes but they are not always accurate."

"Where should I start?" The man asked.

"First, tell me your name."

"Kariudo."

"Hunter," I whispered.


(Daisuke's POV)

"S-Satoshi?" I stuttered. He was looking straight at me but…he didn't do anything except…stare. Doesn't he remember me? I reached my hand out to touch him. A sudden realization came to his eyes. He made a move toward me but something seemed to hold him back. I frowned as Satoshi suddenly fell backwards and landed hard on his back. Now this was getting scary.

"Satoshi?" I called nervously. I walked over to him and kneeled at his side. I tentatively raised a hand, and placed it on his forehead. I jumped slightly. Something seemed to have pricked my hand just now. What was going on?

Why did Kariudo change into Satoshi? Why? How?

I was still contemplating on what happened when my acute ears heard a low moan escape from Satoshi's throat. I looked down at him. He was sweating slightly. I gently lifted his head and placed it on my lap. My fingers slowly combed through his silky hair and brushed them away from his eyes. He's having a nightmare…isn't he? I thought.

"Daisuke", Dark spoke softly.

"Yes," I answered, cradling his head.

"You really do love him…don't you?"

"Yes." I could not keep my eyes off of the beautiful angel that was there on my lap. He was so beautiful.

"I'm sorry, if I didn't tease Satoshi like that, none of this would have happened."

"It's all right, Dark. I know that you didn't know that this would happen."

"Still…," I could see Dark's eyes starting to water. I was surprised. This was the first time I saw him cry like this.

It's all right."

"No it's not. He took Krad away from me and Satoshi away from you."

"Everything will be all right," I said firmly.

"I'm not so sure this time," Dark whispered.

Poor Dark. He suffered as much as I did, I thought to myself as I stroked Satoshi's cheek.

He lost the person he loved the most.


WhiteWolf92: This is sad…

Dark: I so do not love Krad.

Krad: Hmph. Of course you don't.

Dark: That's right. (thinks of an idea and starts to stare evilly at Krad) Oh Kraaaaaaaaad.

Krad: (sweatdrops) What the hell do you want this time?

Dark: Why don't you come over for some "tea"?

Krad: I don't want any fuckin' tea.

Dark: Oh come on…it'll be good "tea". I promise. (pouts)

Krad: (misses his real meaning completely) I said I don't want any.

Dark: (marches over to Krad and whispers the real meaning of "tea" in his ear)

Krad: (starts to blush) Oh… right,… "tea".

Dark: Yeeess… "tea" (hauls Krad away by the arm)

WhiteWolf92: (stares at them and sweatdrops) Those two are really weird…
