There, lay Light's soul, drifting in an empty darkness. Not a sound he could hear, nor any glimpse of color. Silence was all that was living within Light's soul. No feeling what so ever, though just a soft outline of a shadow of Light's body, not even seen by himself. Thoughts were blank. Light was nothing.
There, cracking through the darkness, reaching in, was another soul. That was the only possible thing Light was able to see when in Heaven nor Hell. Another soul that had first used a certain death note.
For Light, being able to see something, had been the first since Ryuk had pursed his clumsy fingers against his notebook carefully writing Light's name into it with the dark ink. This other soul, had awakened Lights mind, his thoughts, his imagination.
The soul was a thin figure, Light could almost make out what it was, no, not a what, a whom. His memory flashed causing minor pain in Light's head, as though a feeling of explosion, surprise, and yet┘glory. Thinking for a moment, silence still drifting through the darkness, Light remembered. He knew who this was. He knew why they were here. Everything came back.
There has only been two death notes every settled on earth. Those two had first belonged to Light, and Misa. In every death note, there is a set of rules, for a human to follow in order to confirm ownership of the death note. One of those rules, is of course, the first human to use a death note, shall go to heaven, nor hell, and their name shall be written in their shinigami's note book for their death.
After Light had died, Misa had obtained the death note again by stealing it from the FBI. This caused much ruckus throughout Japan. Misa continued to act in the place of Kira, this time, not to act as the second Kira, but as to reunite Lord Kira. She continued to state justice, Misa knew, she was the only human in the world who was able for the job as Lord Kira. Misa was the one who understood Kira the most, his thoughts, his desires. She knew what she had to do. For almost a year, Misa was continuing the job of Kira, killing criminals who deserved their life to be taken away by Kira. She kept the police busy for quite a while. Time passed, and the death gods noticed that another human being was using a death note, and decided that not even just one death note should be left in the human world without a shinigami watching over the mortal. With that, they sent a shinigami down to watch over Misa. But this shinigami had a mind of his own. He thought that no human should deserve the power of a death note, it only leads to misuse of the death note, Humans are too emotional and irresponsible to use such a weapon. After the following week of Misa's obtaining of a new shinigami, the death god was fed up, and with out giving it a second thought, he wrote. The bells at the near by orphanage struck loud that day, as though yelling to everyone that something tragic had happened. Nobody cared to listen above the loud rolling of thunder roaring in the sky. No one knows where the shinigami is now, or what happened to him, not even the other death gods. But people do know, that Misa had died of a brutal heart attack the day the bells struck loud.
