Oh my god... today is so boring... there's nothing good on TV... "Hey Jade?" I glanced over to my mother who had taken my attention away from the boring TV. "Yeah?" "Why don't you take the dog for a walk? It's such a beautiful day." I sighed as I stood up. "Fine." I walked over to the door and grabbed the leash off the wall while yelling, "WILEY!" Seconds after a dog that resembled a coyote walked into the room. "Come on Wiley, were taking a walk..." The dog began barking and running around my feet, while I put on his leash. "Oh and hun..." I turned to look back at my mother. "Yeah mom?" "Please be careful..." "Mom... Kira isn't going to strike me dead, okay?" "Just be careful, okay?" "Yeah I will." And I walked out the door.
As I walked down the street I looked here and there. The town was always pretty silent since Kira announced himself to the world. "Ugh... I miss England Wiley..." He didn't even notice my voice, not that I expected him to anyway. Just then I was startled by music coming from my pocket, I recognised the tune as my best friend from England, Mya.
"Hey Mya, what's up?" "Nothing really Jadedstar." My real name was Jadedstar, but most people would just use the short form, Jade. "Then why you calling? Isn't it alot of money on your end?" "Not for my best friend." I heard her laugh and I pushed back a few tears, I missed her a lot... "It's nice to hear your voice again Mya..." "Yours too Jade... but are you okay?" "Yeah?" Then it hit me, she meant because of Kira. "Mya... I'm fine, Kira wont touch me." "I know... But all this started after you got there." "I know, but I'm fine." "Okay... So? See any cute guys yet?" "Oh yeah tones! There's this one in my math class who's really smart and really cute!" I heard her gasp and squeal on the other end. "What's his name?" "Light Yagami." "Aw what an amazing name, and if he's as cute as you say, you should date him!" "Hes older then me though!" "By how much?" "A year..." "So? You should go after him girl!" Maybe I will okay." We both laughed. "Okay... Anyway, I lied, my mother is going to kill me, I wasn't supposed to call you." She laughed again. "Oh shit, you better go then! Bye, miss you." "Miss you too Jadedstar. Bye." As I closed the phone I felt a tinge of sadness, but it passed quickly.
I was almost home when I heard my phone go off again, except this time, I didn't recognise the tune. I opened the phone and it said 'Unkown number'. I opened it and read the text, it said;
This is L.
You may not remember me Jadedstar, but you met me when you were quite young. I'd like to talk to you A.S.A.P. Do not respond to this message. If you can meet me tonight I will be in room 106 at the moonrise hotel, down the street from your house. Do not tell anyone where your going, or that you heard from me. I will be waiting.
L? That name sounds familier... I met him before? Oh my god! That odd man! That's when it all came back to me. My mother had always had weird friends when we lived in England. There was this one man who owned an orphanage and when I was about four I met this odd kid. He lived at the orphanage and was quite a few years older then me, but even at that age I was boy crazy, so I fell in love with him. We became quite close friends, but he ended up moving away. I looked down to my dog and smiled. "Guess what Wiley. I'm gonna go see an old friend."
When I walked in the house I let my dog off the leash and called for my mother. "Mom!" I waited a few seconds before I got a response. "In the living room hun!" I followed the voice to the living room, where my mother was. She was sitting on the couch curled up in a blanket, watching TV. "How was your walk hun?" "Fine, I ah, bumped into a friend from school and she invited me over for a bit, is it okay if I go over?" "Of course hun, just don't be out too late okay?" "Yes mom, see yeah later." I walked out the door towards my 'friends' house.
I re-read the message as I walked. I finally got to the hotel and walked in. The place reminded me of something out of a wizard novel. "May I help you?" A young man, maybe only five years older then me was at the desk in the middle of the room. He managed to bring me out of my trance. "Ah maybe..." The person lifted an eyebrow at me. "I ah, need to get to room 106, I'm meeting someone." "Ah yes, I was told that a young girl would be coming. Right this way."
I followed the man to the elevator. He walked in with me and did the controls for me. He pressed the button that said '3F'. When the doors opened there was only one door. "This is the room your looking for madam. Have a nice day." I watched as the doors closed. I turned and held my breath as I knocked on the door three times. I heard some rustling, then a voice. "Come in Jadedstar, I've been waiting for you." Oh yeah, that's not creepy at all! Was my last thought as I turned the handle to walk in the room.
The room was just as pretty, if not prettier, then the rest of the building. I glanced around the room looking for a person when I finally found him. He was fairly tall but slouched. He had raven coloured hair and onix coloured eyes. He wore a long white sleeved shirt and jeans with no socks, just bare foot. Under his eyes were black circles, guess he didn't sleep much. But he still looked exactly like I remember him, tall, dark and handsome... and mysterious!
I was too busy babbling in my head to realise he was talking to me. "Jade?" "Huh?" "I said, it's nice to see you again." "Oh ah... You too L." "Please do not call me L here. Call me Ryuzaki." "Oh... Okay Ryuzaki."
"So ah... L-Ryuzaki... What did you call me here for anyway? Shouldn't you be trying to find Kira?" "That's what I'm trying to do Jade." "Huh?" I'm such a retard! "I believe you know who Light Yagami is?" I could feel my face getting hot, just the mention of his name made me go nuts! I nodded my head, not trusting my voice. "Well I need your help." I opened my mouth to respond but he quickly hurried on. "I trust you Jade, so I'm going to tell you confidential information." "Okay..."
"Light Yagami is working with me on the Kira case right now." Ugh Light is so amazing~! "But... He is also top suspect to being Kira." "What? No! He can't be! Light isn't evil! Hot, but not evil!" I couldn't stop the words from coming from my mouth, and before I knew it, L was sitting there looking at me liked I'd lost my mind.
L took a deep breath and continued on. "If you like it or not Jade, he is. If you are not willing to help me then you have no need of being here anymore." L started to stand up when I grabbed his wrist. "I will help you." He looked down to me and... Smiled? Kay, smiling so wasn't him... He sat back down in his odd position and began talking again. "Then I need you to understand this; Light Yagami may indeed be Kira, if you are going to help me, your very life will be in danger every minute of the day." I had no words. I knew working with L would be dangerous, but not that dangerous... "Jade?" "Ah... Yeah, I'm okay with that, I understand." "Well then, are you ready to know where you come in?' "Yes." I lied. "Okay..."
As I walked back home I couldn't get my mind off of what L told me. I liked the plan, but I also didn't like it. What if I mess up? I'd never live it down... or maybe not live at all...
When I walked into my house most of the light's were off. I looked at my watch, it said 12:34pm. Shit... Mom must have gone to bed, I'll be in trouble tomorrow...
I walked upstairs to my room and quickly slipped into my pajama's. I was tired and needed time to think, the plan started tomorrow.
