Summary: Satoshi and Daisuke miss Krad and Dark, even though the former refuses to admit it. But when the seal is suddenly broken, Dark and Krad begin to wonder what exactly is going on.

R&R please.

Start

Satoshi woke up and found himself standing up. He didn't understand why. He walked around. Then he remembered! The craze... If a spirit claims you, you will wake up the next day in astral form. He looked at the figure curled up under the blanket. He poked the figure. It moved. He jumped back in shock. He's been claimed. He grabbed an edge of the blanket and removed it to reveal...

Meanwhile...

Daisuke woke up standing up. That wasn't right. He saw someone still asleep in his bed. Then he remembered what happens the day after the spirit claims you. He grabbed the edge of the blanket and tugged it a little. He saw a white feather. His heart stopped. Could it be Krad? Crap... He trembled, he was dead scared of Krad. He pulled the whole thing to reveal Dark, covered in white feathers. He sighed with relief. Thank goodness. He had missed the theif anyway.

"Dark!" he shouted.

Dark jerked awake. He sat up and checked his surroundings. He realized he was in Daisuke's room.

"What? How did I-?" Dark was confused.

Daisuke grinned. "There's a new craze, did you know? Spirits claim the bodies of normal people, and they are free to come out anytime! That means you can come out anytime you wish, unlike before!"

"This is bad..." murmured Dark.

"Why? Don't you want to be here again?" asked Daisuke, hurt.

"No, something must have happened that caused the seal to break. But.. Who cares?" Dark, carefree person that he is, went back to sleep.

"Eh? Dark!! I have school!!!" yelled Daisuke.

"So? Pass it off... If I'm right, your teacher will understand." said Dark.

Emiko came in the room to wake Daisuke up. Of course, she didn't see Daisuke's astral form. When she saw Dark, she squealed loudly. Dark woke up.

"Can't a person sleep?" he muttered.

"Dark!!!" She hugged him.

Kousuke and Daiki came up and saw Dark. They both smiled. "Looks like Daisuke's been claimed by Dark."

Then, someone rapped at the glass doors leading to the balcony. It was Krad. He opened it.

"I'm guessing this is a bad time?" he asked dryly.

"You!!" Emiko's temper flared.

"Wait... He doesn't look like he'll kill us... now." said Kousuke.

"Hey!! Lazy phantom, wake up!" yelled Krad.

Dark jerked awake for good this time. He looked like he was ready to fight. Then he broke into a grin.

"Hello, big brother."

Krad was definitely annoyed at this. "Stop calling me that. Don't be so friendly. I am not your big brother."

"Since when did you call Krad big brother, Dark?" asked Daiki.

"Since it was so boring being sealed."

"By the way, did you notice that the seal broke for unknown reason?" asked Krad.

"Yeah... I guess... But I don't want to worry. If you want to worry, go worry alongside creep." said Dark.

"Satoshi-sama... isn't a creep. But this is big Dark." Krad frowned.

"So?"

"Fine. Go and die." Krad flew away.

"Bye to you too!" Dark, happy at having pissed Krad off, got off the bed. He put his arm around Emiko and Kousuke. "What's for breakfast?"

"Since you came back, I'll prepare anything." said Emiko, smiling.

"Really? Then I want..."

Later at school...

At school, everybody was wondering who Dark claimed. Riku, though, was not happy since she knew who it was. She poked Dark at the chest.

"I have a guardian too, since Risa dragged me into this stupid craze. I'm not afraid to let her go against you." threatened Riku.

"Relax, I'd worry about blondie more if I were you." replied Dark. "And your sister. She seems to have moved on to him."

Riku noticed Risa fliriting with Krad, who, like Satoshi, was cold and unresponsive. He sat at his chair, watching the clouds float by outside.

"Leave it to Hiwatari-kun to get claimed by a cute spirit!!" swooned some girls. Some girls though, were swooning over Dark.

"But Niwa-kun? I thought you'd go for Hiwatari.." said one girl.

"Hiwatari tried to catch me, and he's creepy, just like blondie." replied Dark, shrugging.

"I'm telling you, that village is haunted by a spirit! If you want to get claimed, all you have to do is go there." assured Saehera to one of his classmates.

"It's not haunted. I've been there." Ryuu slammed his hand down on the table.

"Really?"

"Hey! What village?" asked Dark.

"The Kaori village." answered Saehera.

"The Kaori... village..." echoed Dark as he remembered one something from the world he came from...

"Good topic, Saehera. That's our lesson today." said the teacher, entering. "Take your seats everybody."

Everybody sat down, with a few girls competing for the seats beside Krad and Dark.

"So, who could tell me about it? How about the blond over there?"

"The Kaori village? It wouldn't be right if you didn't know the forsaken angels..." said Krad, frowning.

"Right. So Dark Kaitou, tell us about them." said the teacher, wincing at Dark's presence.

"There was once a war, so extreme that the angels were up to their last stand. But before the fight, everybody left camp. Only three angels and an old adviser was left. The three fought valiantly and won. But the third angel who fought in the Kaori village was the most fearsome of them all. He fought so hard that the snow turned red with blood. The village he fought in was the Kaori village." said Dark.

"That's not all the details, Dark, and you know it." pointed out Krad.

"Humans don't know the rest, Krad!" snapped Dark.

"I'll tell you what really happened. The third angel had prayed the moment before the fight to win, since he had to claim revenge on the people who deserted him. They say it was rage that got him through the war. After the snow turned crimson with blood, he was weak. He didn't seem able to survive, just like the other two. A nightingale sang its sweet song, and they say it cursed him and the village." finished Krad.

The teacher was shocked. He never heard the story told in such detail. "Wh-what happened to the other two angels?" asked the teacher eagerly.

"Would you believe it... if we said that they were summoned into this world?" said Krad.

"Who are they?"

"Now that, is confidential information." answered Dark.

Krad... those other two were you and Dark before you were summoned here in the human world... right? asked Satoshi.

Right...

"And I dare Ryuu to dig up that layer of crimson snow!" declared Saehera.

"I already did. When I was just three." answered Ryuu. "Nothing happened."

You still lie about me? How strange...

What they don't know won't hurt them.

My comrades... I am so happy to see you again. I have heard so many rumors... What has happened? I will see you soon...
