DISCLAIMER: I own nothing of Death Note.
This story is just an original idea created by the author's imagination.
Chapter 1. A New WorldIt is the 14th day of February of the year 2011. A black haired lady, in her mid-twenties, is sitting in one of the seats in the departure area of the airport, obviously waiting for her plane to arrive. She is wearing a Chanel sunglass that covers her deep green eyes and the dark past it tries to conceal. On the outside, she looks like a normal lady concentrating on a figure in front, but actually, her thoughts were traveling somewhere else, so far away…
"Misa…ano…Light Yagami is dead."
"Nani?! Naahh…Light-kun is not dead." Misa Amane said in a matter-of-fact manner. She waved a finger in front of her companion and continued. "Misa-misa won't allow that to happen. Misa-misa is bethroted to Light-kun and we're going to get married soon." She finished the sentence by crossing her arms and turning back.
Tota Matsuda shook his head. He cursed Ide Hideki again and again for choosing him to deliver the news to Amane-san. He already knows this will happen. Dealing with a stubborn lady like her, he presumed that only a proof will make her believe him and he was not mistaken. He cautiously took something in his bag and showed it to Misa.
"Misa-Misa, take a look at this." He handed an envelope to Misa which she silently accepted.
Misa opened the envelope with shaking hands and took out the contents. As she stared at the first photo of Light-kun's lifeless body, she found it hard to breathe, as if something's clutching her neck. She turned her gaze to the guy in front of her and found herself shaking in anger.
"Out! Out! You…killed Light-kun! I'll never forgive you all!" She shouted while shoving Tota to her apartment's door.
"We didn't kill him. Misa-Misa, he was Kira! Believe me, he almost got us all killed! And you were even suspected as the Second Kira because of him." Tota tried to protest but was shoved out of the door and was slammed on the face.
"I'll never forgive them. Light-kun…I…" Misa cried as she clenched her hands on the envelope from Matsuda and brought it to her chest while her other hand found its way to her belly.
Misa's thoughts were interrupted with a loud cry. She instinctively took hold of the baby cradle and protectively lifted the little angel close to her. She cuddled the baby while humming a soft lullaby to ease the cries. The baby started to relax after feeling mother's touch and tried to close its eyes again. Misa smiled while studying her 6-month old baby, and returned her thoughts to the past occurrences that led her to that day…
Obviously I can no longer stay here. They would keep on pestering me and I have to answer every single question they would ask me. Misa thought as she started to clean her stuff and Light's as well in their apartment. As she looked around the room, she remembered the times when Light would come back from work to their apartment and she would bring him his clothes. She saw the table where they had eaten together despite her awful cooking. She lifted her gaze to their bedroom and remembered that single, romantic night they'd spent together…where her dreams of becoming one with Light had finally came true…one night of bliss that could have multiplied a thousand more if he was not…
Misa closed her eyes and felt a tear trickled on her face. She clutched her stomach again and felt a slight movement in it. He never even managed to know that he has a child with me. She thought with a sigh. She tried to stand up and walked her way to the mirror. She gazed at her reflection and studied her face. Tears that were left to dry were evident on her face along with the fresh tears that were beginning to pour again and she cursed herself for not being able to stop them from falling.
"Is it really true that Light-kun is Kira and I'm the Second Kira?" She asked no one in particular. She continuously looked at the mirror, as if searching for answers. She has no memories of being Kira so that idea seemed impossible. Yet, if she is Kira, she would be able to revenge the death of Light-kun. The thought sounds appealing to her and she could not help but wish that Light-kun would be there to give her answers. Just when she was about to leave and continue packing her things, she noticed a set of papers under the bed. It looked like there were three of them, as if it was meant to be hidden or be seen by her at the same time. Her instincts seem to tell her to take it and so she treaded softly to the location of the papers and pulled it out. As if by lightning, past memories crept inside her head, memories of meeting Light, Rem, Ryuk, her being Kira…the Second Kira.
Now she understands. He remembered how she regained her memory the first time through Rem's help…how she traded her life for shinigami eyes twice to satisfy Light…how two shinigamis sacrificed their lives for her…how Light also came back and took L's place. She remembered the recent events…about Light-kun telling her to relinquish her ownership of the death note, and how he also gave up his own to give it to his loyal servant, Teru Mikami, but kept some pages for himself so as he would not forget about his past. And these papers are the ones left. Everything seems to make sense now.
After the recollections, she got up quickly. She remembered something…something very valuable. And she won't forgive herself if she would forget it again. She tore a small part of the death note's paper and placed it in her pockets. Despite the cold wind with only night lamps that loomed the streets, Misa Amane stride out to the darkness into the dark forest where another treasure have been buried a long time ago.
"Passengers for Flight 10F439, you may now start to board the plane."
Misa Amane returned to reality and started to lift her baby and the small bag she brought with them. No one would discover her identity for she had disguised herself properly. She clutched her bag closely to her side, feeling the shape of the notebook as she did. She had covered it with baby's wrapper so that no one would suspect anything about it and would think of it as a baby book. She strolled along with the other passengers for the final check-up before boarding.
"Asakura Mikami?"
"Yes." Misa Amane responded with a smile that could melt a man's heart.
"Welcome aboard." The man returned the smile.
Shuichi Aizawa, the leader of Japan's investigation team was having another miserable day after the escape of another criminal. Obviously, after more than a year of not hearing from Kira, people tend to return from their old ways, and the criminals won't definitely waste time of the opportunity given to them. Since the truth about what happened to the real Kira was not publicized, many speculations have appeared in the surface. Although there are still some who believes that Kira was just taking a rest, still many others have concluded that he already abandoned his convictions or he already lose the battle or even died already.
Suddenly, a ring from his cell phone got his attention. He hastily grabbed it and pressed the answer button.
"If this is another news of your stupidity, you better not show your face to me again!" he shouted at the receiver.
"Aizawa-san! I can feel your high blood over the waves. Why are you so tight out there?" a familiar voice answered in the receiver.
"Oh, it's you Matsuda-kun. I thought it was another one of those upsetting calls. Or is it?" Aizawa ansswered back.
"Oh…well..I don't know if this is good or bad but Ide-san and I are on our way to Obanazawa, Yamagata."
"What the hell are you going to do there?" Aizawa shouted at the receiver again.
"Aizawa-san, don't shout at me. I know you told us to help find the criminal but we saw the news this morning about Amane-chan. She had committed a suicide!"
"Nani?!"
"Hai. She jumped off from a building and her body was crushed, her face cannot even be recognized. The police found her wallet and all her identification cards in it. We are on our way to investigate."
Aizawa let out a deep sigh. "Okay. Call me if there are any updates about the incident."
"Okay. Bye!" Matsuda said on the receiver.
Aizawa put down his cell phone and grabbed another phone. He dialed a number that he already memorized by heart and waited.
"You have reached the Lake Circus. If you know the name of the clown you want to hire, please say the name. Otherwise, if you want a list of them, please press 0."
"This is Aizawa Shuichi. The password is Yagami Light."
Another melody sang on the line and a voice picked up. "Aizawa-san, what can we do for you?"
"Watari, is L in there?"
"I'm sorry Aizawa-san. He's having a break and cannot be disturbed." Watari answered.
"It's okay. Just tell him that Amane Misa is dead."
"Get to know the people around you as well as you can, and take advice only from those who are qualified to give it."
Hi! My first death note fanfic. I have been pondering about this idea for quite a long time now since I've finished the anime and I'm very glad that I was finally able to find time to write it down. I know some of you might disagree about the concept of another death note left after Light's death, but I was hoping I'll find my answers here too. If you try to recall, Misa's death note was not taken away under the tree after it was reburied. And in the end, there should have been two REAL death notes left so how come there's only one? If indeed I got the information right, please do agree with me by saying it through reviews. But if you can prove to me that I got it all mixed up, please give me your opinions too. Still, whatever the results would be, please allow me to continue my story on how I have created it and I'd appreciate any reviews that you make about it. By the way, I'll be ending each chapter with a verse from the Bible. Hope you'll like it. Thanks for reading!
