Lawliet's p.o.v.

There we were again. How did we always find ourselves in that exact same situation? My back pushed against a wall, his narrow brown eyes glaring at me, our breath so close to each other.

"Get off my case, Lawliet," the brunet growled. "I'm going to kill you."

It was clear he was willing to actually kill me by the anger in his voice and the hate in his eyes. I kept my dull expression, numb to his threats.

"Would you really kill me in public, Yagami-kun?"

The crowd of people oblivious to our position was the only thing protecting me. All he could do was angrily stare at me.

"Someone's eyes are on us," I said. "Unless you want to end up in jail, I suggest we depart quickly."

He pushed me off the wall, snarling.

"Next time you're alone, you're dead."

Rushed footsteps played behind me. I hung my head, and slowly began to walk away.

"That's what you said last time," I muttered to myself.

Another set of footprints played behind me. When I turned around, I saw a girl with long brown hair, pale skin, and blue eyes in a school uniform.

"Can I help you?"

"Hello," the stranger said as she came up to me and grabbed my arm. "My name's Fukida Mamushi."

"Uh, nice to meet you, I guess," I said, trying to get her off of me. "I'm Lawliet Ryuzaki."

"Nice to meet you, too, Lawliet-kun," Fukida replied cheerfully as she began to walk with me. "I'm new to Elina High, and I'm trying to make new friends. Did you want to hang out over the weekend?"

I thought Fukida was weird, and a little clingy, but thought I might as well make her feel welcomed at our school.

"Sure. There's an ice cream place nearby I can take you to."

Her smile faltered.

"Uh, no thanks, I hate sweets."

My head quickly turned to her, my eyes narrowed.

"Nani!?" I pulled away from her. "I'm sorry for being rude, but I have somewhere I need to be. Maybe we can talk later."

I quickly walked away, frowning.

Yagami's p.o.v.

Damn that Lawliet. I had a scowl on my face as I aimlessly walked down the sidewalk. Next time I see him, he's dead.

"Excuse me!"

I turned around at the sound of a high pitched greeting to see a girl in my school's uniform.

"Hey, I know you," I said, losing my scowl. "You're from my class."

"Yes, I am. I'm Fukida Mamushi. You're Yagami Light-kun, right?"

"Correct." It was difficult to suppress my anger from earlier. "Did you need something?"

"I was wondering if you could help me out with my homework," she said as she grabbed my arm. "Would it be okay if I stopped by your place for a bit?"

I sighed. I was used to this kind of behavior from the girls at my school, and I learned it was pointless to try and deny them.

"Sure. Let's get going then."

"Arigatou!"

"Make yourself at home." I closed a drawer behind me, which contained an item I wanted kept from her eyes. "So what're you struggling with in school?"

"Mainly math," Fukida whined as she sat down on my bed. "It should be a crime to make me do so much math!"

If it was, I'd have too much work on my hands.

"Our assignment is actually pretty simple once you get the formula down," I said as I sat down next to her. "So if two trains 150 miles apart-"

I gave her a long and detailed explanation, never stuttering over my words once. By the end of it all, I was rather proud of myself for my knowledge. Although, Fukida stared at me as if I had just said the dumbest thing in the world. She quickly smiled and said,

"Wow! How do you know so much?"

I realized she probably didn't understand any of what I had told her.

"I study as often as I can. You understand everything now, right?"

She nodded.

"U-uh huh. A-arigatou."

"Any time. Would you like something to drink while you're still here?"

"Wh-why don't we just sit around and talk for a little bit?" She looked down slightly. "I'm still new, and I don't have any friends yet. S-so."

I put my hand on her shoulder.

"All right. So how are you-"

We talked for about half hour, and I found myself rather intrigued by this woman. Not many of the girls at my school seemed to entertain me as much as she did. Our conversation was interrupted by a loud TV speaker from downstairs.

"Kyoto has just been destroyed by the fight of Kira and L. There were few survivors-"

"Saiyu!" I called downstairs. "Turn the TV down, I'm having a conversation!"

"Kira and L are still fighting, it seems," Fukida said. "Have you heard of this, Yagami-kun?"

"How could I not?"

Kira and L, two celestial beings who had been at war with each other for three years. Their fights had left several cities and states destroyed, and many people either killed or injured.

Kira took the form of a Chimera made of red light. The head of the dragon breathed green flames, sharp blades rested in the mouth of the ram, and lightning spewed from the head of the lion.

L took the form of a Hippocampus. He could control the ocean, summon hurricanes and tornadoes at will, and mountains crumbled at the sound of his roar.

What it was the gods were fighting over was a mystery. As humans, all we could do was pray they settle their argument soon, and that we may not be hurt.

The ones who worshiped Kira prayed that he would have mercy on them, and the ones who worshiped L prayed he may prevent Kira from destroying the world.

"Fukida," I said, "which one do you think is just?"

My guest slowly looked up at me.

"Why? Who do you think is just?"

"I believed in Kira since the beginning, and I will always believe in him. Whatever their argument may be, I know he is in the right. What about you?"

"Kira-sama is my only god," Fukida replied, her hands forming fists. We were silent for a few seconds, until she said, "Who was that boy you were talking to earlier?"

"Oh. His name's Lawliet Ryuzaki. He's an L worshiper."

"Then he can rot in Kira-sama's hell!" She stood up, looking me dead in the eye. "Kira-sama is the only god in my eyes. I'd give anything to help him defeat that bastard L once and for all, and I'd tell him that I love him."

"Really?" I asked, a smirk forming. "You'd give anything for Kira?"

"Y-yes. I would."

I took a step towards her.

"I have something to tell you then." My eyes turned red as I took her hand, and whispered in her ear, "I am Kira."

She was silent. Even though I couldn't see her, I could tell fear was written all over her face.

"Prove it," she managed to say.

I pulled her into an embrace. Our bodies began to disappear into red light. Once she opened her eyes, I had taken the form of a Chimera made of red light.

Her eyes widened in awe and fear as she trembled in my arms. I smiled, stroking her back.

"I command whoever shall live, and whoever shall die. So now that you know my secret, what are you going to do?"

The brunette fell out of my arms onto her knees.

"Kira-sama," she whispered, "let's bring the world to justice together."

"Yes," I said, stroking her face. "If I use you, then I can rid the world of evil and bring justice to a new era."

Lawliet's p.o.v.

It had been almost a week since my previous encounter with Yagami-kun. I had been alone all that time. I wasn't surprised that he never made his move, he'd always been full of empty threats.

"Ohayo!" Fukida-san ran up next to me. "Hey there again, Lawliet-kun," she said. "Are you busy this time around? Want to hang out?"

I was searching for a way to politely excuse myself when she quickly added,

"Want to get some ice cream, or something? I actually really like sweet food, but my parents insisted on having me saying that if someone ever offered any because of 'diets'."

She was clearly lying, but it seemed she really wanted to be my friend, so I decided to go along with her. She proved she really was lying when she said she would order something later.

"What are your thoughts on Kira vs L?"

"I don't know," I said, taking a bite of a pastry. "What are your thoughts on Kira vs L?"

"I asked you."

"I don't know. What do you think?"

"Kira is the one in the wrong," she said. "I can't stand the thought of L-sama starting a rivalry for no good reason."

I felt myself smile.

"I have no opinion on the matter, I never worshiped either to begin with." A slight chuckle escaped me. "Fukida-san, have you ever wondered where Kira and L disappear to when one of their quarrels ends in a tie?"

"Huh? They, uh, they go to their Heavens, right?"

"Perhaps." I bit into a cookie. "But let's be a bit more creative, for argument's sake. What if, after they're done, Kira and L take the forms of humans just like you and me, and hide their hatred for each other when they're among us."

She stared at me in shock for several seconds until I burst out laughing.

"It's just a random theory I had the other day. I doubt it's really true-"

"Are you L-sama?"

I stared into her trembling eyes, neither of us blinking once. She fell from her seat onto her knees, bowing her head.

"L-sama, I-I am your servant."

I knelt next to her, wrapping her in an embrace. We dissolved into blue light. When she looked up at me, I'd taken the form of a Hippocampus completely made of blue light.

"I can't risk putting you in danger," I said, "all I can do is ask you pray for me."

For a brief second, I could've sworn I saw a smirk on her lips until she smiled up at me, crying.

"I know you'll defeat Kira, L-sama."

A/N: This was inspired by a Death Note fan-made Flash Game by SilentReaper. I'm sorry the way she got to L was pretty dumb, but I couldn't think of any other way to get her in. I promise the rest of this story will be good. Just review, and I'll upload soon.
