The room was dark and almost deathly silent, if not for the light from the laptop that brightened her face in an almost unearthly manner. I glanced over to her friend who was staring intently at her own laptop with a contemplative look. "If you stare at the screen like that, your face will freeze, Kerstin." I informed her with a snicker, watching her expression turn irritated and she pouted up to me where I resided on my bed.

"That's rude Ember! Isn't she a Meany butt, Serena?" The said girl peered over her book to her friend with an irritable glare, then a raised eyebrow to me. I smirked and ran a hand through my dark waves before giving Kerstin an amused look. Kerstin just pouted some more, trying to make one of us crack. It didn't end well. It just ended with her getting a new friend, *cough* a book, right in the face. I choked down a burst of laughter, seeing Serena retrieve her previously thrown book and resume reading.

"L will serve me justice!" Kerstin shouted, dramatically pointing at me. I gave her a look, and then motioned towards the awards on the walls. She viably paled at all the martial art awards I had and wisely pretended nothing happened. "Kira rules with violence…" She muttered under her breathe, pointing the comment to me and obviously not expecting me to hear her.

"Why yes, yes he does and so do I." Serena grinned at my words, even if she liked L more than Kira. As you can tell, I was the only Kira supporter here. Unlike most of the population who side with Light only due to his sexual appeal, I believe the way he disposes of the criminals is simply quite useful. The killings off criminals in a very discreet manner, also avoiding L finding prove of his identity, is very intelligent.

"Ember, you have that light in your eyes again." Serena warned, her dark eyes watching me in a way that reminded me of Ryuk. I replied with a mysterious smirk, not revealing my thoughts to her. My naturally amber colored eyes met her onyx. Snow fell through the window with silent beauty, melting at the warm touch of my palm. Kerstin shivered, pulling her sleeping back around her in a tight cocoon.

My dark hair fell in ripples over my back, tickling the back of my thighs. Due to dislike of the sun, I rarely left the house and never took the trouble of trimming my hair. The most common moments I leave are during martial art tournaments or my Sensei's come over to have sparing matches.

I haven't lost a match in approximately 12 years, 123 days and 43 minutes, when I was only five years old. By my estimates, I have been challenged approximately 434 times, I have challenged others about 136 times, lost 2 when I was a beginner, and won 568 official challenges, not including the sparing or training periods.

"Hey Ember, did you see that?" Kerstin asked, sticking her head out the window, letting snowflakes melt in her pale blonde hair. I looked over, scanning the never ending fields of snow. A black notebook stood out in the midst of it all, the words to small from here to read. Serena's eyes widened and she muttered, "So that's where I left my death note…" The red pupils in her eyes expanded, and I raised an eyebrow.

"Death note? Serena, what are you talking about?" Kerstin asked a fearful look in her eyes. I remained silent, studying my friends expression closely, but her expression never faltered. In a similar way to L, Serena bit the tip of her thumb, before jumping out the window to retrieve the apparent death note. Kerstin yelped with surprise, jerking backwards only to hit her head on the table, effectively knocking her out.

I ignored her, pushing her limp limbs out of my way before jumping after Serena. I somehow, landed 20 feet away, right next to Serena, who flinched at my sudden appearance. "Serena, may I ask what you mean when you spoke before?" I asked coldly, eyes narrowing. Serena's ghoul-like eyes focused on me before looking just above my head.

"You never noticed before, did you? You can be so oblivious sometimes. Ember, I am a shinigami. Well…half-shinigami." I quirked and eyebrow, noticing her grin was similar to that of Ryuk's. I had a feeling she was hiding something, a glint darkening my eyes dangerously. "You're reactions remind me of Light's but calmer, more apathetic." I made no objection, well aware of my calculative nature.

Serena picked her death note from the ground, brushing the snow carefully off the bindings. Without warning, Kerstin tackled Serena, trying to wrestle her way to Serena's death note. "Kerstin…stop! You're going to hit the-" Darkness poured from the death note, wrapping tightly, almost possessively around the three girls and bringing them closer. Serena never bothered to struggle and Kerstin smothered a scream, only I put up a fight.

Ember colored coils pushed out from the darkness, the energy almost fire-like. The held onto me, pulling me closer, fusing into my skin. All I could remember was the ember touching my eyes…

I woke with a start, jumping onto my feet. What I did not expect was for the ground under me to crumble and give in. "The hell?" I muttered, pushing myself out of the way, avoiding the fall. The moment I landed in a cat-like position, the cement under my fingers glowed like my eyes. "Dammit, why is-" Calm…

My posture relaxed, my breathe became steady, my heart beat with rhythm. Panic is just a form of emotion that is easily concurred if you calm yourself. Panicking is unnecessary, unneeded, and unhelpful. There is no use for such emotion. Instantly, my eyes became apathetic and I sat Indian style on the pavement, observing.

The area took the appearance of a park, a bench not too far a distance away. Laughter was loud in my ears, but the children making the laughter were past the tress, barely visible from this distance. My eyes narrowed, everything was different somehow… animated. The grass ticked my thighs, an animated version of Kerstin curled at the floor, unconsciously having snuggled closer to me. Serena was at my right, almost looking like a corpse by how pale she was.

"Wake up." I said and promptly stared holes into Kerstin. She screeched and jumped back, getting a whiplash from franticly looking around. I snickered knowing the only way to wake the girl was to stare at her. Kerstin noticed me and I watched as tears pickled her eyes as she pointed out, "Your eyes look too monkey awesome!" before for latching onto me for dear life. Serena pushed herself up having waked from Kerstin's indignant comment. Serena glared briefly at Kerstin, who hid her face in my side. "What happened, mommy?" Kerstin pouted, looking up at me.

My eye twitched at the familiar nickname, before answering, "Whatever you hit when you tackled Serena, something pulled us here. By my calculations, we appear to have been dropped in a park and approximately 5:20pm, in some sort of animated bodies." Kerstin pulled at her hair before squealing like a fan girl and jumping around. We ignored the fan girl, "What happened to the death note?" I commented, expecting an answer.

Serena sighed heavily, lazily falling back. "It vanished when that dumbass hit the black vortex in the back. Damn idiot…" Serena grumbled, trying to kill a tree by glaring angrily at it. I noticed a women glare at Kerstin, who was still squealing and blushing. Poor women mistook her for being on drugs, by the expression the women currently possessed as she hurriedly pushed her child to their van.

Serena cackled with laughter, grinning at a now angry Kerstin. I stood to my feet, hands in my pockets, surveying the new animated world around me. My hair was the same, only normal, and apparently my eyes their unusual amber color. The two women jumped at each other, yelling and pushing. I stepped over them, leaving them behind. I heard them pause before rushing to catch up, though Serena had an easier time with it, while Kerstin panted a bit.

"What do we do know? What do we eat? Where do we sleep? Where-" Kerstin was interrupted.

"Shut up, Ember wouldn't move in a random direction for no reason." Serena said with a Ryuk grin. Kerstin pouted, trudging behind. Serena was proven correct in her statement when I found my way out of the park into a more busy part of the city. "Where exactly are we?" Serena asked, eyeing everything suspiciously. Ember turned to a bulletin board, eyes slightly widening.

"Well, that was unexpected. I only predicted it be a 26% chance of being in the Death note universe." I said, catching the two's attention. Kerstin fainted a second after she read the board, blushing and mumbling about L. Serena caught Kerstin before pushing her to me. I caught Kerstin and through her over my shoulder, ignoring the weird looks we received.

The board had four letters in big print, along with many websites about it. "KIRA" Also known as 'killer' in English. I felt a rush of adrenaline, we were in Death Note. I knew what to do now.

Serena and I stood in front of a restaurant with a still knocked out Kerstin, my plans forming in my mind faster than sound itself. I made Kerstin lean on Serena, who scoffed with annoyance and watched as I walked into the restaurant. The worker glanced up at me with narrow gray eyes, startled by my unearthly orbs. "Are you hiring?" I asked, watching the young man come to attention and nod. "My friends and I would be honored to work for your restaurant." I said, noticing the manager peek through the doors, smiling at my words…too easy.

The man appeared to be in his late forties, a laidback grin on his face. "Are you available during the week?" I nodded silently, sensing the younger mans gaze on me. "Can you cook?" He said, raising an eyebrow. I smirked, eyes glinting.

"Of course, my parents owned many 5 star restaurants in America. If I couldn't cook, I'd might as well kiss a lama." I said with a grin, deciding to act a bit like Kerstin to gain their favor. The older man bellowed with laughter, his deep voice echoing. He patted my back with a big grin.

"I like you! I'm known as Bear around here, though my real name is Okiba." He said, winking at the young man at my side. "This will be your co-worker, his name is Yakui. He tends to be a bit grouchy!" Yakui beside me twitched with annoyance, glaring at his boss. Bear held his hand up to me floor covering his hands, apparently unaware of it.

I snickered, shaking his hand, not bothered in the least. If we were in the world of Death Note, or original names could be of some trouble. "I'm Shiharu Toume, pleased to meet you, Bear, Yakui-kun." I almost smirked at the blush of embarrassment on Yakui's face, as he hid his face in a book. Get a job, completed.

I said goodbye to my new boss, leaving the restaurant to see a women poking the unconscious Kerstin, completely unaware of Serena right next to her. I blinked and meet Serena's eyes. Her eyes widened a fraction, before the women reached through Serena to shake Kerstin. Serena face palmed, getting a tick mark.

Kerstin screamed at the surprise of waking up with a women's face looming over her creepily. "Kerstin, let's go." I ordered and she rushed to my side, hiding behind me from the weird women. Serena walked through the women and stopped in front of us, Kerstin's eyes wide as dinner plates.

"I said I was a shinigami, didn't I? I can choose who sees me and go through solid objects, ya know, the normal shinigami abilities." Serena shrugged as if talking about the weather. "Where you hired?" The question was directed to me. "No wait… why do I even bother? Of course you did, I shouldn't be surprised." I rolled my eyes and pulled Serena and Kerstin along.

Next was finding an apartment, which I managed to pickpocket from some rich businessman when walking past him. Poor dude didn't notice his wallet was suddenly empty. Neither did the other 27 victims of Ember, who felt no remorse at all.

It was becoming dark, the stars appearing overhead. I swiftly moved through the crowds while entranced with the moon, Serena easily shuffled past people and Kerstin continually bumping into people and pushing them out of the way with an irritated glare.

Two hours later, I scared a man so badly he gave me the keys to his apartment before running away. We had found his apartment and entered casually, as if it was ours whole time. "That was fun." I muttered, snickering as I remembered the terrified expression on the man's face. Serena rolled her eyes and Kerstin pouted.

"You sadistic lama..." Kerstin grumbled, showing her love for the word lama. I smirked at her, falling onto the couch with a tired sigh. I closed my eyes and contemplated what point of the anime we were in. Kira is already known as a hero that kills the criminals and I have about a 89% chance L hasn't appeared yet.

My eyes flickered open, watching Kerstin flip through the channels and collapsed in exhaustion beside me, leaning against my side. My eyes narrowed as a man flashed onto screen. The man on the death sentence had appeared on TV like the anime portrayed him too, challenging Kira and posing as L. L was calculative and thought out many possibilities of the outcome, and I assumed Light was growing aggravated at the man Lind L. Taylor's insulting his justice for evil. Serena watched without emotion, her face illuminated by the screen. Kerstin sat at my side, curled against me, watching the screen waiting for the foreshadowing death soon to occur.

"Kira, I have a pretty good idea behind your motive and why you're doing this. But what you're doing is…Evil!" My amber eyes narrowed, glaring at the screen silent awaiting his death. Light should be pissed as of this moment, writing the man's name as I think. Time counted down by the clock on the wall, four, three, two…one. Lind L. thrashed violently at his desk, clutching his heart before falling limp. I smirked, eyes dangerously glinting. Kerstin whimpered and buried herself closer to me. Serena expression didn't flinch but her attention stayed glued to the screen. The gothic L sign returned to the screen, letting the true L speak.

"U-unbelievable…" He whispered disbelieving, and Kerstin relaxed a fraction at knowing L was there. "I had to check for sure. Who would have thought you could have done this?" L said, as if silently accepting the new case. "Kira, it seems you can kill people without direct contact." I frowned slightly, but then smirked at imagining Light's expression at the moment.

"I couldn't believe it before seeing it with my own eyes. Listen to me Kira. If you just killed the man on the screen, Lind L. Taylor, you just killed a man who was scheduled to be executed today. It wasn't me." I snickered L was more intelligent than Light had thought. "The criminal is someone the police caught secretly. His capture wasn't broadcasted on television or the internet. It seems that even you couldn't get information on him. But I, L, Do exist! So come on! Try and Kill me!" L announced.

Serena whistled impressed, her shinigami eyes watching the screen. "It never gets old, L." she muttered, greatly amused.

L continued on, "What's the matter? Can't you do it? ….It seems you can kill me. So, there are some people you can't kill. You've given me a good hint. I'll tell you something in return… I told you this is a live broadcast worldwide, but… This is only being broadcasted in the Kanto region of Japan." Kerstin smiled cheerfully, not noticing my frown deepen.

"I was planning on broadcasting this in different areas at different times, but it seems I no longer need to. Now I know you are based in the Kanto region. The first victim was the killer Shinjuku. The police overlooked this case because it was so minor. Of all the criminals who died of heart attacks, Kurou Otoharada- unemployed- Shinjuku Phantom Killer, this crime was the least serious. Furthermore, his crime was only broadcasted in Japan. I have been able to deduce this much. You are in Japan and you're first victim was your guinea pig. You're just lucky you're in Kanto, the most populated region in Japan." L paused and seemed to sigh, "I never thought things would go quite so well, but… Kira, it won't be too long before I can sentence you to death."

"L certainly is straightforward." I muttered, earning a chuckle from Serena and a pout from Kerstin.

"Kira, I'm interested in just how you committed these murders, but… I will find that out when I catch you." L said. "Until we meet again… Kira…" The screen went blank, cutting off any light whatsoever inside our apartment.

I murmured lightly, "And quite bold." I let my dark hair roll over my shoulders in waves. "I will find you both, and watch from afar at the outcome. This is my justice." I said, knowing L and Light would be saying something similar.
