Hi everyone. This is my first Death Note story. I hope you all will like it. Enjoy!

Light Yagami, aka Kira, always had Ryuk the Shinigami by his side. But what if Light had

someone else watching over him?

Death Note: Light's Angel

Chapter 1


It was a peaceful night at the Yagami house. Sayu, the youngest child, was watching a movie in the living room with her mother, Sachiko. Her older brother Light, was up in

his room as usual. Their father, Soichiro, had not yet returned from work.


Earlier, Sayu asked her brother if he could take a break from his studying and watch the movie with them, but he refused. She sighed in defeat as Light went upstairs. "I'm

sorry Sayu, but you know he has to study to pass his exam to get into To-Oh University." Sachiko said apologetically.


"Yeah, I know." She replied sadly. But she knew there was more happening than that.

Sayu didn't want her brother to continue on the path he was on. More than anything, she

wished she had a way to do that…


Up in his room, Light sat in his chair with his hands in his hair, pissed off.

"Hey Light, why are you sulking? Is this still about what happened yesterday?" Ryuk, the

Shinigami attached to Light, asked out of curiosity. Light turned around and stared

angrily at him.


"I'm not sulking Ryuk! I'm mad that my plan didn't completely work!" He yelled. Ryuk shrugged.

"I do think it was amusing that one of your brilliant plans had a small hiccup in it." Light stared at the Shinigami incredulously.


"A small hiccup? It's a disaster! In a master plan, like the one I had, if there is even the slightest mistake it could completely backfire!"


"Okay, forget I said it!" Ryuk said while waving his arms in defense. Before Light could say anything else, he heard his mother calling him.


"Light, your father is home! He wants a family meeting, so please come downstairs!" "I'll

be right down!" He answered as he got up and left his room. "A family meeting? This

should be interesting." Ryuk said as he followed Light down the stairs.


When he reached the ground floor, Light saw his whole family sitting at the kitchen table,

waiting for him. "Hi Dad. Welcome home." Light said as he took a seat next to Sayu. "Hey

Light." Soichiro said, sounding tired. He looked around at his family, preparing to tell

them the news they would find alarming.


"Um, so what's with the family meeting Dad?" Sayu asked as she leaned her head on her hands.

"I figured you were going to find out sooner or later, so I might as well tell you now."

They all listened for what he was about to say.


"I don't want you to be alarmed. I'm sure you've heard of this Kira investigation. Well,

I'm currently in charge of it." Light already knew this, but it was news to his mom and sister.


"What? Are you serious? That's totally awesome Dad! You're the best cop ever!" Sayu said excitedly.


Even though Sayu sounded pleased to hear this, she couldn't feel more of the opposite.

Despite her father's first statement, she did feel alarmed. However, she did her best to

not show it.


"That's not quite the point I'm trying to make." Soichiro said before continuing.


"You see, the truth is the FBI sent 12 of their agents to Japan, to assist us in finding Kira.

Then all of them died yesterday…except one."


"All but one?" Sayu gasped in horror. Light fumed in his mind. 'I have a pretty good idea of who that agent might be.' Light thought,

remembering what happened…


Flashback

Light stared at Agent Raye Iwamatsu as he sat in his seat on the train they were on. He

was very pleased with himself. He had just tricked Raye into writing down the names of

his fellow FBI agents on a page of the Death Note hidden in the envelope above him.


Light looked at his watch; it said 4:41 pm. He then felt the train coming to a stop at

Tokyo Station. 'Kira…who are you?' Raye asked himself as he got off the train. Light

looked back at his watch, counting down the final seconds of Agent Raye Iwamatsu's life.


In a moment, he'll be saying farewell to Raye, after the man gets a good look at Kira

before he died. "3…2…1…0." Light began to peek over to look out the train door and see

Raye on the ground clutching his chest… Only, he didn't.

Light stared out the window, completely baffled as he watched Raye walk away.


'What the hell? He didn't die?! But I wrote his name down! Iwamatsu should've died of a

heart attack By now! How could he still be alive?! What went wrong?!'

Light came up with the answer shortly afterward, and it made him feel outraged.

Flashback End


Yes, Light knew that Raye Iwamatsu had to be the surviving FBI agent his dad just

mentioned, but didn't dare ask who it was to avoid acting suspicious. "Who was the FBI

agent that didn't die?" Sayu asked, surprising everyone, including Light.


Soichiro sighed. "I can't tell you that Sayu; that's classified police information." He

answered firmly. "Sorry, I was just curious." Sayu said, lowering her head a bit.


"Its fine, honey. Nothing to be sorry about." Her mom said sweetly. "So, about the 11 dead

agents. Does this mean they were killed by Kira?" Light asked, sounding concerned.


"What I'm saying is there's a chance that Kira will actually try to kill anyone who comes

after him. His crimes are ruthless and more frightening than anything we've seen. Many

detectives have already quit." At this, Sayu and her mom began to panic.


"Dad, you should quit too! I don't want you to die! What if he gets you?!" Sayu pleaded.

"That's right. Your life is so much important than some job." Sachiko added, worried for

her husband's life.


"I can't. I could never forgive myself if I walked away from this. I will not sit back and let evil triumph." Soichiro replied unrelentingly.

"But Dad, you…" Sayu tried once more, but faltered. "Please dear." Sachiko begged again.


Light, instead of begging his dad to turn away, supported him. "I think it's honorable of

you Dad." He said as he got up, shocking the women.


"I'm proud to able to call you my father. And if anything should ever happen to you, I'm

going to find Kira…and make sure he gets executed."


Light then walked out of the room, leaving the others feeling very troubled.


Something snapped inside Sayu as she too got up and slammed her hands on the

table, surprising both her parents.


"I don't agree with Light! Dad, I'd rather have you

here at home unemployed than seeing you die on the job! I can't accept this!" She screamed as she ran off to her room, crying.


"Sayu!" Her mother tried go to after her, but Soichiro placed a hand on her shoulder.

"Leave her alone dear. She needs to let this sink in." He said softly. "But Soichiro…" Her

husband shook his head.


"I know you don't agree with this, but this is my choice. I've never backed down from criminals before, and I'm sure as hell not going to start now."


"Soichiro…" Sachiko said weakly as her husband hugged her. "I know, everything will be

fine. Besides, Kira hasn't killed me yet. So I must be doing something right." He replied,

half jokingly, earning him a small smile from his wife.


Back in his room, Light heard his sister yelling at the top of her lungs and ran to her

room, from where she slammed the door shut. "Your sister sounds pretty upset." Ryuk

commented. "Sayu just doesn't want to lose Dad." Light said calmly.


"Will she?" This question caught Light off guard. "What do you mean?"

"Well, you heard your dad. He won't stop hunting for Kira until he's caught. Doesn't that

concern you?" Light narrowed his eyes a bit. "What are you getting at Ryuk?" The

Shinigami sighed, tired of beating around the bush.


"Will you kill him to protect yourself?" Light didn't answer right away. Instead, he turned

to look out the window. A minute or two went by before Light finally spoke again. "I'm

not going to worry about that right now. My biggest problem at the moment…is L."


"What about that FBI agent?" Ryuk asked. Light sighed. "Unfortunately, unless I know

his real name, I can't kill him." He then looked Ryuk straight in the eye.


"I wish you could've told me his real name before this screw-up happened." Ryuk

groaned. "I told you. Shinigami are forbidden to give humans' names and lifespans

to other humans." Light snorted.


"Whatever." Ryuk shrugged as he plopped on the bed. "But look at the bright side. He

still doesn't know that you're Kira. That's got to count for something." Light smiled. "I guess you have a point."


In her room, Sayu was laying on her bed and buried her crying face in the pillow. She

couldn't face the possibility that her father could be murdered by Kira anytime…like those

FBI agents. It was simply too much for her.


'Kira… you really are a monster. Do you really plan to… kill my dad just to save your own

skin? I can't imagine my life without dad in it. I don't want him gone!'


Then suddenly, something else happened in Sayu's mind. She stopped crying.

"No... He won't die Kira. He won't, and I won't lose my brother either. I won't let you tear my family apart." Sayu then tightened her grip on the pillow and snapped her eyes open, looking fierce.


"I won't let you!"
