I do not own Death Note. Blahblahblah
Warning: LxLight. You wouldn't be reading this if you didn't like it, so no complaining.
Notes: Sorry it took so long for me to upload another story. xD I've had a social life and school is like horrible. I'll try my best to keep updating this. Just give me two weeks before you lose hope.
"I assure you… L is real… I do exist."
"Oh, Mom, isn't he just amazing?" Sayu asked from down stairs.
"It's so wonderful what he does, Sayu," her mother agreed.
Light was still in shock, still standing in his room, staring at his television. The words Lind L Taylor were printed across the otherwise clean sheet of Death Note paper. He took one step back.
"What's wrong, Kira? Can't you do it? Come on! Try to kill me! …
What's the matter? Can't you do it…?"
"What… what's going on?" Light asked, looking back and forth as though he could get an answer from somewhere in his room.
"What's the matter, Light? This makes it so fun," Ryuk laughed, floating along behind Light.
"Kira, I will capture you. You cannot run forever."
The screen went blank; Light fell back into his chair.
"Light! Mom said dinner's ready!"
"C-coming!" Light called, looking at his closed bedroom door.
He glanced at his Death Note, looked at the name. You cannot run forever, L had said. Light laughed, softly, closing the Death Note, opening his desk drawer to hide it in its usual spot. I can't run forever? He thought, laughing still. L is so full of himself… he's not going to last. I will find out who he is, and when I do… he's dead…
"Light, come on!" Sayu whined, knocking on his door.
"Sorry, Sayu, I'm coming," Light said, opening his door, smiling at his younger sister. "Oh, it smells good."
"I helped cook tonight," Sayu told him, brightly, returning his smile as she followed him down the stairs.
"I'm sure it tastes just as good, Sayu," Light complimented his sister, sitting at his usual spot at the table.
"Oh, Dad's not home yet?"
"I'm sorry, Sayu. He's been so busy with work lately."
It was only to be expected. Soichiro Yagami was leading the Kira investigation, after L, of course, and hadn't been home since the case began. Light wasn't surprised, since he had hacked into his father's computer to find information about the Kira case. Kira knew every step the police took towards his capture, but he was always four steps ahead. They didn't understand- this was justice! Kira was justice! They should have been on his side.
Sayu jumped from her seat when she heard the front door close, and ran to greet her father in the entry to the kitchen. He smiled tiredly at her, and she looked up at him like he was some hero. She should be looking at me like that, Light thought absently. I am Kira, I am Justice. Light stood to join his sister, smiling at his father and taking his coat.
"How's work going?" Sachiko Yagami asked, piling food onto a plate for her husband.
"It's tiring," Soichiro admitted, taking a seat at the table with his children.
Of course it is, Light thought, still smiling and acting like the son that every mother wanted. This is something for only L to handle…
L.
The thought of L made Light grip his fork for just a moment, and none of his family seemed to notice it.
I will defeat you, L. And once I do, the world will see what justice I have brought them…
The ending was rushed, I think it's obvious. .. I'm working on improving it. xD
Review, please!
