A/N: Okay, I really wanted to start a new series that I might actually be able to update. I didn't know whether to do a DeathNote fic or a Heroes fic. I'm going to aim for chapters around 100 words or so (If not, they'll just be really short). This will make it alot easier for me to update. If you do read this, please review. It's helpful to me and to everyone else. Enjoy.

Chapter One: Faded
The entire building felt cold and ominious. Her hands tingled with unwanted anxiety. Snow gently fell outside the windows, brushing up against the cold city...
"Kitty?" Matsuda's voice broke the tensed silence, his hand resting against her slumped shoulders. The younger girl lifted her head, wringing her hands, starring into Matsuda's golden-brown eyes. His face was calming; gentle. He pulled off a smile that radiated warmth. His fingers were lifted from the fabric of her shirt and without warning, the older officer began to tear up, feeling each one race down his cheeks.
"It's going to be okay. We'll catch Kira, I promise...L will not have died in vain, I promise," He repeated his promise into the flesh on her neck, holding the blonde as she shook uncontrollably. She rattled against him, still watching the flakes dance on the window sill, reminding her of his pale skin that contrasted against his black-hole eyes. Within seconds, the sweet and comforting moment had faded, and the day began with an eery silence. It was day one without him...and it was day one of a misery that could never end inside Kitty's swollen, broken heart.
