A/N: I hope you shall enjoy this version. All comments are appreciated. Plus this is my first Death Note Story, I do hope I kept the characters personalities.
Disclaimer: Death Note does not belong to me nor do any of the characters.
A Turn of Events
One such as I knew that once Light-kun and I have uncovered this new Kira, he will once again become Kira. This was a very likely fact. My logic tells me as such in the case of Light-kun's confinement. That the power of Kira had been passed on due to his inability to use it because of constant surveillance. This explains the sudden different illogical personality of Light-kun, I encountered after a few weeks of surveillance. This was caused by the passing of Kiras power.
There is one problem in this matter though. If Light-kun gains Kiras powers again, I will have lost a friend. It will be difficult thereafter to convict him as Kira and sentence him with, most likely, the death penalty. I wish not to see my first friend die, as well as Misa-chan and on the other hand if I do not convict them, my life may be at stack. If possible, I wish to avoid this.
We will catch this current Kira, as it is in the sake of justice, but I will make very certain not to allow any possibility of Kiras power to be transported back to Light-kun. Yet that might be utterly inevitable but I will try.
I am still not fully certain that Light-kun at the moment is not Kira but my instinct tells me this is Light and not the same Light I watched through cameras at his house, nor the same Light that I met at the campus or played tennis with. This is not the same Light as back then. I prefer him as he is now. My friend and not a murderer.
"..mmmnn…" I looked to my right at the sleeping body laying next to me. He was most likely dreaming. I on the other hand was unable to sleep so I am left to my thoughts. It was almost morning and Light-kun will be waking soon.
I took my laptop that was on the table beside me and switched it on. I emailed Watari. I gave him all the details I wish him to inform the others of. I cannot do this personally due to the fact Light-kun may not know of it. I will make sure if there is any possibility I can stop Light-kun from becoming Kira again I will try to prevent it.
The email read as such:
Watari I wish for you to inform the others on out task force other than Light of this extra additional precaution I wish to include once we have or are close to having the current Kira suspect in custody.
Inform them of the following:
I believe with no doubt that Light was Kira. I know many of you in the task force wish to deny this but this isn't the matter. I believe now that Light-kun may not be Kira and I wish to avoid him becoming Kira or receiving Kiras powers again so I wish to ask the following of you. If at any stage tomorrow during our plan of capture you at all costs, not to allow Light-kun by any Kira related device that may be the source of his power or to allow any sort of transaction of Kiras power to be made possible. It can be avoided if possible. Yet I am unsure of the means Kira kills by, I merely ask for you all to be aware and take extra precaution around Light.
Thank you
Watari may I ask as well if you could bring me some beverage.
L
I hope Light-kun will not become Kira. I know I am being selfish but on the plus side I get to have him around for longer and his companionship. His mind is as mine is. I haven't met anyone like him. I want to keep this friendship.

That evening
"We secured Higuchi." Yagami-san reported.
"Mogi-san please give him a headset." Light-kun requested, and Mogi did so.
Now I will finally know, "Higuchi, how did you carry out the killings?" I paused, "Tell me."
I then proceeded in threatening him to ensure that he will reveal to me his method of killing.
"A notebook." Higuchi said. He tells of how one can kill by writing a persons name in it if the persons face is in mind while writing the name.
A notebook… hmm..
Yagami-san says there is a notebook in Higuchi's bag along with some names in it..
"AHHHH!" Yagami-san yelled
"Whats the matter, Yagami-san? " I enquired
"A…A MONSTER!"
"Please calm down, right now you don't have a gun." I said, while Yagami-san tried to fish out a gun in his jacket. Mogi went over to Yagami yet he too yelled at some sight.
"What is it Mogi-san?" Light-kun asked.
I must be careful now. If that notebook is indeed the method of Kiras power, he must not be near it or ever hold it.
The notebook allows only those who have touched it to see what they see?
"Watari, un-cuff Light-kun from me and replace it on your own wrist will you?" I requested and Watari did so.
"What.. Ryuzaki-san?" Light-kun seems confused.
"I will not allow you near this device Light-kun, Im doing this for you." He looked at me understanding my concern. "Watari, please could you take Light-kun back to the headquarters. I shall wear the helmet and have Yagami-san drive us back."
"Understood." Watari replied.
"Mogi-san, bring me a helmet such as yours and keep the notebook by Yagami."
"Yes." He came over to the helicopter and I put the helmet on that he received for me. I ggot out and Watari took my place in the driver seat and started the helicopter up.
I walked over to where Yagami-san was sitting and reached down to pick up the notebook. I looked up to where they were looking. "A Shinigami! They… really… exist." I remembered all the facts that where part of this and the existence of such a being and I realized. There are two notebooks, its not over yet.
"Hi." I said to the Shinigami, I am in some shock, yet I am able to understand that I cannot let my guard down.
"Hi, my name is Rem." It spoke.

Back at headquarters
"So if one does not use the notebook in 13 days after writing a name the owner of the book dies?"
I asked Rem.
"Yes that is correct."
"That means… This proves Light-kun and Misa-Misa innocent!" Matsuda-san said joyfully. The team agreed.
"True but I wish to be absolutely certain." I said and I hear a few gasps behind me.
"L, how? Rem even said all these rules are true." Aizawa-san said.
"We will merely wait for 13 days from today to pass. If this rule is true, Higuchi will die and his death is inevitable due to the punishment the law will take by execution. If this rule does apply we will set Misa-chan and Light-kun free. If this is not true we wait for the continuation of Kiras judgments. If they do not continue we know that the second notebook that I believe to exist isn't being used either." I stated these facts for everyone.
"But Ryuzaki, what will happen to Misa-Misa and Light-kun if Higuchi does die?" Matsuda-san argued.
"There will be two things I will look for. One will be if Light-kun or Misa-chan tries to get a hold of the death note. Then he and she will be Kira and Second Kira. The other is if neither he nor Misa-chan try any such thing within 13 days I will release them but I still wish to watch them for a time period. I will allow Light-kun to enter back with us once these 13 days have ended and continue the investigation. We will also know by then if Rem-san is lying to us or telling the truth. If Higuchi dies I will be in possession of the Note and therefore I will be the current owner. Once that is confirmed I will release ownership of the death note and return it back to Rem-san to never be used by Kira again. Once all such things have been done, I will release both Misa-chan and Light-kun."
The taskforce looked worriedly at Light-kun in the monitors in front of L, where Light was laying on the bed in the room him and Ryuzaki shared and nodded their agreement.
L reached over to the table next to him and picked up a cookie and popped it into his mouth. "Now that's settled I need to get Watari to cuff Light-kun and I back together so I can continue my surveillance of him." Ryuzaki let his legs fall from the chair to the floor and got up, heading towards the stairs.
A/N: Theres chapter one for you. Review will you?
