Yup, I started a new story. It has a shounen-ai pairing, so please, if you don't like this, don't blame me for it. I did warn you.
Yagami Raito
What?
You are here to be judged.
But I didn't die!
You do not remember?
No.
You were hit by a drunk driver. You were allowed to stay for 2 days.
There must be some mistake. I'm not even 25-
Do you remember?
Yes, you told me, I got hit by a drunk driver.
No. Do you remember? Your true name?
…Naimo. Next in line to be captain of the Drifters.
Ah. So you do remember, than perhaps it was our fault. Looking over your pass lives, we believe you have come to regret your decision. Although you could've rejoined us anytime you wanted. Tell us, would you like to be relive this life? Whatever your answer, we will not hold it against you. If you choose to join us again, you may have permission to revisit Earth again.
If I choose to relive it, will I start as a child? Will I have all my memories back? Will anyone remem-
No. You shall start anew before you came into contact with the Note. You shall remember. Let this be a gift for all your hardships.
Thank you…

Loud banging could be heard.
"Raito! Get up, its time for school!" Huffing could be heard.
He slowly opened his amber colored eyes, and suddenly everything came rushing back to him. He had been judged, passed, and now-
He slowly grinned. He knew who he was, he knew what would happen. He would learn from his mistakes.
"Jeez! You were this lazy before! If you even want some pancakes, you better come down."
He snickered, as he imagined Sayu to be throwing her hands up right now.
He slowly got ready for school. He took a special liking to ordinary things, like brushing his teeth. After he finished buttoning up his green shirt, he sprinted down the stairs.
He kissed his mom on the cheek, taking in the surprised look on her face with delight. Ruffling Sayu's hair, he quickly took an apple and ran for the door before she could hit him.
He walked to school, a dangerous glint in his eyes. Today was the day that Ryuk would show up. And what host would he be if he didn't greet him?

As he entered Calculus, he quickly took the seat next to the window. Just as he predicted, there was the Death Note sitting on the still dew wet grass.
Although this time he made sure to pay attention, he wasn't too keen on what happened last time.
Soon the bell rang, and he bolted out the door.
&&
As soon as his fingers brushed against the cover, Ryuk appeared before him.
"I take it you know what happened?" Raito grinned wildly.
Ryuk rolled his eyes, "as if anyone hasn't. Word gets around fast." Raising an eyebrow, he looked at Raito appraisingly. "You've sure changed Raito, or should I say Naimo."
Raito smiled, "you do know I intend to change some things, don't you?"
"Yeah, yeah…and you need help don't you? All of you Drifters are the same. Stupid, overconfident, conceited…" Ryuk continued to grumble on and on.
Raito grinned knowingly. "It's nice to see you again too."
It was a little short, and the story came up when I was listening to The Academy Is. I totally can't wait for their new album in April!
