AN:I haven't been on Fanfiction in like…ever. Woa, it's changed a little huh! Well, any who, about the story. I rather like this one. One of my first Death note ones after finishing the story. Although, I'm kinda wishing I had made it first person. But I think there was a reason why I didn't make it like that. I don't remember lol. Anyway, if you can't guess who my favorite character is by the end of this chapter, then I'll go ahead and tell you its Matsuda. It's basically centered around him. Since not many stories are about him. Almost all are about L and Light and etc...but yeah, here's a story about Matsuda for all you Matsu lovers! I must say, it gets pretty intense!
Enough of my blabbering-enjoy the story, RnR if you please! Oh yeah, there may be SPOILERS! So if you haven't watched the whole show… stay cautious. It kinda follows the story for the most part, so stay on your toes. You'll be able to figure out which part belongs to which episode. :D k well that's all I have to say for now….
Matsuda started packing his things into his suitcase quietly while L continued to speak. He started to gather his things earlier than everyone else so he could be the first one to leave. He started this routine because he was always the last one out the door, and Aizawa would shut the door on him. This was always because he'd find himself misplacing his cell phone, like always. So after many days of having a door in his face he finally found a solution. Check your stuff and make sure that you're not forgetting anything, before everyone else.
Matsuda usually didn't bring a suitcase to work, no one did. It was just unneeded. He would only bring his ID, cell phone, and maybe some gum in his pocket. But L told everyone yesterday before they left to all bring a bag or container of some sort. No one knew why, and no one bothered asking. So there he was packing his things into a suitcase. He was just about done when L finished speaking.
" Now like I said earlier today, I would like for everyone to make sure that they haven't left anything here so go ahead and take one more look around for anything that-"
"Riuzaki, we already searched the whole building. Why are we doing this?" Aizawa asked. There was no need checking for lost stuff…it didn't make sense to him. Unless this isn't our HQ anymore…he thought.
L spun around in his chair and reached for one of the many animal crackers on his desk. He faced everyone noticing Aizawa's new expression, which was understandable.
"What's wrong with where we are now, Riuzaki?" Light asked leaning back in his seat. Even he didn't see a problem with their current location.
"Nothing. This building is anything but flawed…" he assured them all reaching for another animal cracker and silently placing it in his mouth. Aizawa now knew why they were doing this. They were taking the investigation somewhere else.
"So if it's so perfect then why-"
"Watari has recently informed me that it is no longer in our in our budget…."
"What's going on?" Matsuda asked. I mean really will someone fill me in here…
Everyone sighed strongly in unison. Matsuda looked down at his suitcase. He hated that sigh. He could almost hear everyone's thought. You're so clueless Matsuda… And of course, if that didn't give away that he should've just shut up in the first place, then L definitely made it clear for him. Those large dark eyes were weighing on Matsuda, which…. naturally… made him feel very small compared to the rest of the task force.
"I'll explain for those of you who don't understand our predicament…"
L stood up and paced his way across the room so everyone could see him. There was no need though. Everyone knew that by "those of you" he was clearly addressing Matsuda.
"I started the construction of this building some long time ago." L shoved his hands into his pockets as they all listened.
"Right. It was a hassle to have to jump from hotel to hotel every few days." Light added. And it was clear to everyone that they needed a different way to hold their meetings.
"Yes, of course I'm sure you all remember."
"Matsuda." L called causing Matsuda's head to spring up.
"Y-yes Riuzaki."
" Do you remember what you asked me on that day?" Matsuda thought back. Sure he remembered what he asked but, why did it matter?
"Where did you find the finances to build this?" Matsuda said. But it did come out more like a question to L. Everyone could understand why, because the sad fact was his question never really was answered.
"Yes and do any of you remember my answer?" L scanned the faces of everyone again waiting for someone to tell him. Even Light didn't seem like he was paying much attention any more. In fact now that he was looking at him, he seemed like he wasn't even there, like he was somewhere else. Well, thinking about something else. Finally Aizawa broke the silence with a loud clearing of the throat.
"Well, your response was more of a statement than well, I mean it didn't really seem like an answer"
"No, no I remember my answer exactly word for word." L ate up another animal cracker. Almost everyone disagreed with him except for light that wasn't even listening. Everyone noticed this and looked at light that was looking at his feet…most likely in deep thought or something. L didn't appreciate being ignored. He quickly leaned in on Light's chair so that he had his full attention. Everyone continued watching.
"Light, It is my intensions to solve this case no matter what it takes, that's how it is. Wasn't that my answer?" Light could tell that was more of a way to tell him that Kira will be caught. And it was directed towards him. He could feel the threatening sentence in the tone of his voice. "No matter what it takes…" he'll do pretty much anything just to bring him to justice. Just to make sure that Light is caught.
"Yeah that's what you said to Matsuda." Light narrowed his eyes at L, not liking what he was telling him. "I still know your Kira, and I intend on defeating you" that was his expression at that very moment. As L walked back to his regular spot he continued with a deep sigh.
"23 floors above ground, 2 floors below…." L looked up and paused for a brief moment. "...And 2 helicopters stored on the roof." L seemed almost sad to have to leave. He wasn't even sure…it was just a building. But, maybe it was the effort and the planning that was used in order to make this place possible. And the confidence…they all had.
"It must've been a lot of work." Matsuda tapped on the chair hoping that L was o.k. He couldn't see his expression, and his back was facing them. But there was something in his voice that made it clear he was upset. Well more like disappointed…in him self.
"Yeah, this place is amazing…" Mogi sighed looking around.
"You know it's not your fault…that we have to leave Riuzaki." Matsuda frowned at the thought of L thinking this.
"Yeah, don't think that you're letting us down or anything cause Matsuda is right it's not your fault." Light assured him. Behind all the concern he was letting everyone see was something he was hiding. A smirk. Did L really think that he could actually defeat him, by the help of this building? Yes it was remarkably built but it's going to take a lot more than a few floors and a couple of helicopters.
"No, it's just I didn't expect to find us back at square one… it's unfortunate but…" he mumbled.
"Square one…. wait you don't mean…" Aizawa groaned. L just sat down in his trademark position and bit down on a cracker.
"Wait were gonna do the hotel thing again!!!" Matsuda shouted sadly. L's crunching echoed loudly in the room.
"Temporarily, yes." L chewed on his cracker enjoying its slight sweetness.
" Which brings me to remind you all that you should please make sure you or anyone else isn't forgetting something." L recited.
"We can't afford to loose anything important so I'm telling you all one final time." He chewed finishing his last animal cracker.
" That reminds me, this is also why I requested that you all bring a bag. So you can take home anything you might have forgotten." The room was suddenly filled with small O's and "so that's why" For the last time that evening, they all sprawled out about the building. All except for L, Light and Matsuda. They where still there on the first floor.
L picked up his gram cracker box and shook it, disappointed by its emptiness. Light started to watch L. He wanted to ask him a question unsure of if he would answer or not. L noticed light staring at him from his seat. Matsuda on the other hand was looking for his cell phone again...secretly wishing he had lost it elsewhere. The silence and the staring was creeping him out a little. L noticed Light glaring at him.
"Light, can I help you find something?" L asked returning the glare.
"L, what's going to happen to this building?" Light asked, he obviously wasn't going to just knock it down. He did ask them to take all their stuff, so it could be possible that he was going to…sell it. Maybe.
"Don't' worry Light everything has been taken care of. Now could you please turn off all the computers for me, I have to go check up something." L stood up and walked off. Just like that, L was gone, leaving Light without an answer. Although it was clear to him the building was going to be sold to someone…he didn't know why he wouldn't tell anyone. Was it because the person who was buying the building. How much did he sell it for…who bought. Who ever did must've had a lot of money. No one person could have all this for himself or herself. It has to be a company of some sort. Why didn't he want to tell them about the company? Then again it could just be L being well… L. He doesn't say much until the time calls for an explanation. He could just be waiting to tell them.
Matsuda was under a table looking for his phone. He had actually already found it under there, but he wanted to hear L and Light's conversation. Matsuda felt a little relived that L had left he room though. Just being there listening felt kinda weird so that's why he got under the table to "find" his phone. Then he realized that it was just him and Light. And that seemed even stranger. Light was just standing there with his hand firmly placed on his chin. If Light had a beard he'd be stroking it, but he doesn't so it looking like his was touching his imaginary one.
Matsuda felt his back cramping a bit. He really needed to come out from under the table now.
"Matsuda?" echoed Lights voice from across the room. From where Light was standing he could only see Matsuda's legs wiggling around trying to get out. He got a bit closer to make sure that was him.
"Matsuda, is that you under there?" Matsuda could hear Light clearly, see his feet walking up to him, and he new that he should answer. But he didn't. Light's head slowly came under the table to face a very freaked out Matsuda. He thought he wouldn't be noticed under the table but…
"Oh, hey Light…" he waved a little. Light ignored his wave and just continued to glare, almost like how he was glaring at L earlier. Matsuda almost shivered at the glare. He hated being stared at.
"Matsuda, why didn't you answer me?" he asked. Matsuda just looked at the floor below him and started fiddling with his tie. He didn't know really.
"What are you doing under here in the first place?" Light was still staring at him. Matsuda never really liked 20 questions but that one he could answer.
"I, uhm, I lost my cell again! Hey maybe now that you're under here, you could help me?" Matsuda asked. Light just gave a slight nod. Matsu was hoping he would say, no or just get out from under the table. Without waiting for an answer, Matsuda started feeling around in the empty spaces. He started reaching further as he put his head to the floor so Light couldn't see his worried face. He didn't realize that in his jacket pocket was flashing red signaling that whatever it was that was in there, need to be charged. That pocket was right in front of Light. Noticing the flashes, Light reached into Matsuda's pocket. Feeling the object caused Light to freeze for a second. Matsuda stopped "looking for his phone" when he felt someone bringing out something from his right pocket. Great.
Beep. Beep. Beep.
"Matsuda…why are you under the table?" Light asked again this time handing him the cell phone. Light was smart. Matsuda forgot that. "Thanks I've been looking for that!" or "that's where I put it." Those where some of the things Matsuda would have said if he weren't thinking. But this time he was. Being around certain people caused him have to think before he speaks. Light was one of those people.
"I guess I was trying to listen to…well I mean I wouldn't call it eavesdropping but. I uhm…"Matsuda mumbled out. How much did Matsuda really think before he came up with that? Who knows? But light didn't care. He just raised an eyebrow at him at him before he lifted out from under the table. Matsuda fallowed behind. Once he was out he stretched and made sort of a weird "ah-oww" noise. He was rewarded with a cough and a still raised eyebrow from Light. He immediately stopped stretching as he smacked his hands down to his sides. He was dieing to get out from under that thing; it's not his fault.
Light started turning off the computers like he was told. Then came the silence. "God, where the heck was everybody, it's been like 20 minuets since they went upstairs for their stuff." That's all that was running through Matsuda's mind. Aizawa said it himself they already checked, twice today. What was taking him so long this time? Matsuda was starting to think they all left some how.
"Matsuda!" Light shouted, and by the tone of his voice it sounded like he's been calling him for hours.
"Yeah!" Matsuda quickly shouted back. Light went back to turning of the computers he could reach.
"I said could you go behind and shut off the other computers?" light asked.
"Uhm, yeah sure." Matsuda stumbled behind all the computers and made his way to the main controls. All the wires were twisted with each other and he wondered how a switch was even in the jumble of it all.
"Li-" Matsuda stopped in the middle of calling for light when he noticed him putting some things into his suitcase. One by one everything was being placed in. One thing in particular that caught his attention though, were scrapes of paper inside of the suitcase that were scattered there. He could barley see it though.
"Matsuda, you done?" Light called out without even looking behind him. He almost fell over as he quickly dashed behind the laptops and TV's.
"Uh, yeah, actually I think I need help…" Matsuda asked kind of…
"You think you need help." Light walked back behind the computers with him. He pressed a small blue button and all the white screens flashed to pitch black. All except for one. The one on the far right. It was a news anchor man who talking as if he had just seen Bigfoot. The camera was shaking and the footage was shattering. The Man continued talking:
"Although the man has not been seen outside the building yet, we're hoping to maybe get a gimps of the one who claims to be Kira. He was seen earlier and local policemen say that they've been watching him and he's been partaking in some questionable behavior. One of which involves entering police stations and then quickly coming out. The reporter thats closer to the scene will tell us more about the man and what on earth he's doing. But we are sure, Kira or not, what he is doing is illegal. Back to you Gunther."
There was a brief pause as the two watched on. Then it continued:
"Thank you Jeff. I'm here in front of the SUHIRO police station with local police officer Robert Moline. Robert can you tell us anything on this man inside the building." "Well I don't really know what to say, all I know is that he some how tampered with the surveillance cameras, so we can't see anything right now." "Robert is there any reason in particular as to why you or any other of the officers will not go back inside the station?" "Yeah, one of the guys that's in charge of the back room said that he saw the guy walk in. The second he walked in, the man closest to the door dropped dead." Is he out here right now?" "Yes. John get over here," "Yes sir" "Sir, if I may call you John. It's said that you saw someone die inside the building. Was the man with any weapon or-
"N-no, he was, he holding something. It w-was black. He was holding it at his chest. Like it was his life er something." "Can you add anymore detailed?" "No sir, that's the only thing I," "And there you have it, someone died, mysteriously, but we wi," "Wait I remember one thing, it looked like a book. Kinda flimsy, a note book maybe, it--------------
The TV flicked and flashed to pitch black completely imitating Light's expression.
"Hmph, Sakura TV always giving out false information to the public." Light laughed as Matsuda tried to laugh along.
"They'll do anything just to get their hands on cash" Light's hands clenched tightly.
"Y-yeah, I hear ya on that one..." Matsuda agreed. The two of them stood there for a while.
"Well, uh, why don't we go see how everyone is doing upstairs…unless, your heading out then…"
"No, no, I'm coming. Actually, you go, I'll catch up with you in a second." Matsuda stated. Light looked around one final time, nodded and went up stairs. Matsuda heard his footsteps walk up. It was strangely in sync with the clock. Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock. Matsuda put himself up against the wall headed to the stair case. Light wasn't there.
Must've gone into one of the rooms, Matsuda thought. He quickly swerved around and tried to flip on the TV. Why wouldn't it come on? He pressed the on button harder, but nothing. He noticed the plug that rested where Light had stood moments ago. Had he plugged it out? Why? Well, that didn't matter. Matsuda crouched down to the back. Now where was the plug? This was the main TV screen, so the plug was probably tucked away somewhere. He noticed that under the table, there was some sort of blockage in his way. He thought he could squeeze under it, but it was too narrow.
Matsuda got out from under the table and quickly looked at the stair case again. No sign of anyone, no Light. He scurried back and stuck his hand beneath the table. He thought he just felt an outlet. He reached around some more, but there were wires everywhere! He was looking for an open plug, so that made it easy, just pick out the one and plug it in.
"Hey, thanks Light!" someone's voice, Aizawa's I think, Matsuda thought.
"Yeah don't mention it, besides I'm sure Mogi won't mind." Light, he was on the stairs…coming DOWN stairs…Matsuda frantically let go of whatever he was doing. His hand was tangling in the wires. No, no, no oh my gosh, just come out already!
"Well, Mogi is giving me a ride, so I'll just grab him and go." Aizawa again
"O.k. it sounds like Matsuda is still downstairs, guess I'll walk him home." Light laughed with Aizawa then his steps continued.
"Gahh, come on!" Matsuda shook his hand out. His pocket hit the floor and his cell phone fell out, just as his head hit the table.
"OUCH! Jeez…" he stumbled out and swiftly sat in the chair. His hair was all ruffled and so was his shirt. Not the appearance he had to Light 5 minutes ago.
"You, o.k.?" Light asked. Matsuda just looked at his watch then stood up.
"Fine." Matsuda watched light grab his suitcase and open the door. The December wind blew and Light grabbed his jacket as he shivered. Matsuda laughed a little, Light just continued holding the door.
"You gonna go outside or do I have to throw you out?" he smirked.
"Oh, sorry…" he too held his jacket close as they both walked outside. Matsuda was just fallowing Light. He assumed that when he said he'd walk him home it was only a joke, since his house was miles away from here, but still he was curious, they had just passed Lights car and yet they were still walking. Light then stopped in his tracks. Matsuda stopped right behind him. He turned around. Matsuda felt a lump in his throat.
"You know…if you want a ride, you should probably ask now before I change my mind." Light looked at his car far behind them. Matsuda was speechless. His mouth opened but he couldn't say anything. He cleared his throat a little.
"Ah-"
"Wait here." Light brushed by him and started back. Matsuda closed his mouth and just blinked away the situation. That was weird. He didn't even get to explain himself. Before he could look around, bright head lights flashed in his face. The jet black vehicle swerved around as the parking lot lights shined off of the silky doors. It smoothly came to a stop. The dark tinted glass gracefully rolled down to show Light. What a nice car and expensive, but nice car.
"Sit in front." Light ordered. Matsuda jumped.
"Uh, o.k." he walked around to opened the door. He slipped onto the icy black leather. It was colder in the car than it was outside. He sat down and shut the door. He adjusted himself then Light slammed on the gas. Matsuda's chest flew forward a little until he held his hands out for support.
Light turned on the radio to some random station and put it on low.
"Seatbelt…?" Light let his eyes quickly see Matsuda fumble around with the buckle. He made a childish groan then looked up to see Light staring.
"Um…" Matsuda just held the belt in place to make it look like he had it fastened.
"…M-my car. I mean, I got in a minor accident and Riyuzaki said he'd take care of the repairs next week. So, that's why I needed a ride." Matsuda got quiet, figuring Light could care less about why he was in his car.
"Let go of the button then press down." Light's eyes were still at his seatbelt.
"Ah…" Matsuda blushed while clicking the belt in to place. That was embarrassing. How could anyone believe he could drive, when he couldn't even buckle up?
"Sorry, I…"Matsuda stopped and shivered. He looked outside the window uncomfortably.
"You cold?" Light asked. Light's voice was drowned out. The only thing he could hear was the silent hum of the engine. Matsuda watched the park they drove by. The images slurred together. The seesaws merged with the swing sets, and the windows only made everything dark, like it was washed out and old.
"Hey!" Light looked back at Matsuda. Suddenly everything tuned in again. The outside scenery was just a big blur, the radio sound was fuzzy, and although the engine was still a hum, Light's voice was not. His eyes quickly flipped away from the window.
"Eh, what…" Matsuda looked at Light. Why can't he keep his eyes on the road like most people, Matsuda thought, but Light kept staring? At this rate we're gonna-
"Crash…" Matsuda let his thought slip out. He immediately whipped his face back to the window.
"What?"
"Nothing."
Light mumbled something.
"Ah. Hmm." Matsuda shivered again.
"Well, that answers my question." Light flipped on the heater to high. The warm air blew in his faces. So much heat, that it burned to breath.
"You didn't have to turn it up so high you know." Matsuda loosened his collar a bit. The heat was unbearable. Light just shrugged.
"So, I take it L like your idol." Light stated. He let his hands sweep over the wheel for a turn. Thank god, he's finally looking at the road.
"What do you mean…?" Sure L was amazing, at almost everything he does, although his eating habits don't resemble that of a human's daily diet, but putting that a side.
"You act like he's some freakish superman. You know he can't fly right?" Light looked over again. Matsuda smiled. Not because of the comment, but because they were nearing his house. This drive seemed like it was taking hours.
"That's not it…it's just, since I'm, well he can solve anything. He knows exactly what to say, and what to do at the right time. He's a super genius." Matsuda said in his defense.
"Humph, well you are the young in the mind so I think I can understand you're "L is the greatest" feeling, I mean no offence but you're not the best detective…"Light stopped the car. Matsuda's face scrunched up. He felt like he was going to jump out of his seat.
"What's that supposed to mean? I am-"
"Right or left." Light rolled his eyes. Matsuda calmed down then angrily looked over to the right. They turned and came up to a building.
"This it?"
"Hn"
Light got out of the car and opened the door for Matsuda. He stormed out and opened the trunk, grabbed his suitcase and walked over to his front door. Light fallowed behind.
He grabbed the handle, and then reached in his pocket. Don't tell me I forgot my keys!!"
Light bent down and picked up the silver objects.
"I think you dropped these." He stuck it in the slot and opened the door.
"Hn. Thanks for the ride. And keys…" he walked in as the door got caught under Light's hand.
"Hm."
"You don't mind me staying for something to drink, do you?" Matsuda let him walk in, he did drive him home. Matsuda's house was very, open. The walls were white, the tables were clear, and the carpets were crystal blue, it didn't really fit Matsuda' personality. Matsuda stuck his head into the fridge.
"Well, help yourself. You can't stay long though, we kids have to sleep too you know."
"Thanks…" Light walked into the kitchen and searched through cabinets. After all the shifting around, they both finally settled down at the table. Light was drinking black coffee and some plain toast, while Matsuda had a cup of apple juice and a PP&J sandwich.
Matsuda took a small bite out of his sandwich. He looked up toward light. He lifted the mug to his mouth sipped, placed it down, picked up the toast. Crunch. Crunch.
"Yes." Light asked. Matsuda stood up and walked into the living room. The way he ate was so robotic it was making him nauseous. He flipped on the TV and walked back to the table. He stuffed the rest of the sandwich into his mouth. Light almost choked at his barbaric behavior.
"Um...I have to use the bathroom." Matsuda walked into the hallway. There was an eerie silence. Light looked down at the clear table. His reflection lightly bounced off the clear surface.
"Hey, light, what are we doing here? Didn't you say there was something important you had to do earlier?" said the figure in the reflection. Light listened in and heard the water running. He then let out a sigh and waltzes over to the counches.
"Listen, I'm going to make this simple for you to understand. Matsuda seems intimidated, by me. I'm here to fix whatever his problem is, and then we can leave." He lifted the remote.
"Let's call it, breaking the ice. Hm?" Light scanned to the news.
"So what. Are you two are dating?" the floating death god laughed.
". What I mean is gaining trust." Light clicked the channel.
"Trust? The boy worships you or, was that someone else?"
"L? Based on what I've seen, he thinks he's everything. This idol of his has some suspicions on me."
"What, so your gonna change what he thinks about L?" The TV reflected off of Lights black eyes.
"Try to… won't be easy though" They both heard a flush. "We'll talk later Ryuk."
Matsuda came through the hallway and into the living room. On the TV was the same scene from earlier that day. The police were still surrounding the SUHIRO police station, only there were different people. Light's throat went dry. On the screen was Misa Amane next to the police officer.
"Hi, I heard what was going on here, so I decided to go check it out." Her happy attitude confused many officers.
"Oh yeah, while I'm here, I'd like to give a shout out to my boyfriend Light Yagami!" She waved as the camera man tried to get away. "Love you Light!"
Light immediately stood up. He could hear Ryuk's laughter in his ear. 'hahahah, that was unexpected' Matsuda danced over to light's side.
"You didn't tell me you had a girlfriend!! And a famous one too! I mean do you know who that is! The Misa Amane?" Matsuda only got shouldered away as light frantically yet calmly floated out to the door with Ryuk chuckling behind.
"Woa, hey if it's personal I didn't mean to…" Light stopped at his car and looked at Matsuda at the door.
"It's just fine. Thanks for the coffee anyway. See you Sunday." Light got in and drove off.
On his way home Light let the windows down. He didn't mind the cold at all, he needed air.
"Misa, you idiot! What did I tell you about our relationship being publicly announced? You did the exact opposite of what I told you not to do!" He slowed down to a stop sign.
"Oh, L's gonna get a kick outta this one." Light continued to make his way home.
Matsuda stood at the door for a while, and then walked back inside. Why did he storm off like that? Did I say something wrong?
"What am I thinking, I'm always wrong…" Matsuda sat on the couch and let himself sink into the soft white pillows. Beside him was his suit case. He reached for it and looked inside. He sat up as he felt his fingers brush over unfamiliar objects.
"Since when did I
have these?" Matsuda brought out a bunch of paper work, all signed
with the name Light Yagami. Ah well that's just great! How did he
end up with his suitcase? He was mad when he grabbed it, so it
must've been the wrong one…
"I'll give it to him later I
guess." He told himself as he looked inside.
"What's this?" Matsuda brought out a black note book with the title "DEATH NOTE" on it.
"Hmm, I think I've heard of this book before…wait no, that was Death wish or something." His finger slid over the surface as it opened the book. On the inside cover was a small symbol of some sort and a message in big bold letters. Matsuda read aloud:
How to use it
The human whose name is written in this note shall die.
"Oooh scary! Light sure reads some weird books…must be like a murder mystery or an action-" Matsuda flipped through the book and notice that it had actual note book pages. It looked like hand writing inside.
"Interesting choice of font…?" Matsuda felt his hands sweating on the notebook. What was this? It wasn't a book, it was just a bunch of… names…names that he's seen, no heard before, on the news, or from L? He couldn't blink. If he did he'd feel like he'd miss something. He then got to the last page and stopped. He saw the words SUHIRO police station, 12:00 and die…
His heart skipped about 5 beats as he flung the book back into the suitcase. His arms and hands relaxed. He then realized he was holding his breath. He inhaled some much needed air and sat back in the couch. He felt as if he were being sucked in so he breathed some more.
"That was too weird…" he breathed. He looked at the time: 11:30…12:00…NO!
"It was just a book…it was fake hahaha." Matsuda could pretend to laugh because he was out of breath. He looked at the book and reached in to grab it. He shook his head and shut the suitcase, kicked it off the couch and threw a pillow on it. Then his cell phone rang. It read 'Yagami Light.' He continued to breath. He then held his breath and answered the phone.
"Hey Matsuda did you happen to grab my suitcase from the trunk?" Matsuda's heart pounded, his veins pulsed painfully. Was he dying of panic?
"Oh what?" he made ruffling noises on the other end of the line and then came back.
"Whoa, I guess so! I uhm, I'll, bring it Sunday." Matsuda stated.
"Actually, I'll come get it tomorrow. Oh, and don't be nosey like you usually are o.k?" Light sounded like he was joking, but Matsuda thought he was serious.
"Sure, sure, tomorrow then." They hung up and Matsuda sat back in the couch, he felt calm when he was away from the suitcase, and away from Light. He looked at the suitcase once more.
"I hope Light is like some sort of horror story writer..." Matsuda thought as he closed his eyes. His clock struck twelve as the news suddenly flashed to an urgent message.
We interrupt this program to bring you terrifying news. One of the officers has just been killed. Not only was he not inside the building but he was well protected. We've seen that he just suddenly dropped dead.
The news continued but Matsuda was too asleep to hear a word.
Matsuda!! Wake up! Don't you just hate it when that happens…well that was the first chapter. Holy cheese! Light a horror story writer? Lol…I think not! Don't be nosy matsuda…tsk tsk, look what he has gotten himself into! Well, all part of the plot right hehe
