Chapter 1: Happy Anniversary

'May twenty-fourth….' Seventeen year old, Violeta Matsumoto, smiled as she finished getting ready for school. To her, this day was important though whether or not it would all go smoothly she didn't know. She tied her hair into a side ponytail. Half of it was a bun, but then her long red hair flowed from it. Violeta finished getting ready for school and grabbed a box off of her dresser before leaving. She adjusted her shoes as she ran down the sidewalk and climbed on the bus.

After the fifteen minute bus ride, Violeta was inside of her high school. It was her senior year and she was very excited to graduate, though chances were that she wasn't attending college due to lack of money. She had decided she would get another job so she could save enough money to move away from her parents.

She rummaged through her locker as she gathered the books she would need for her first class, humming to herself. "Hey, Vi." a familiar voice said as she shut her locker. Violeta smiled up at the man she had known since pre-school.

"Hey, Light." Violeta said in response. "Where were you this morning? You didn't take the bus."

Light Yagami, the top student in the high school and on his way to a promising career after attending To-Oh University, rubbed the back of his neck, with a sheepish grin. "Sorry. I thought I texted you. I woke up a little late this morning." He replied. That was an understatement. Light had remained awake for a good portion of the night for he was using his newly obtained Death Note. He'd only had it for a few days; however he was putting it to good use. He looked at Violeta for a moment, mentally frowning. He had known her since they were little kids and they had become best friends over time. Typically, there were no secrets between the two of them even more so since they had starting dating a year ago today.

Light had yet to decide whether or not he wanted to tell her that he was the person behind the recent deaths of criminals. He already knew that she would believe him and that she would never turn him in either. Light knew for a fact that Violeta loved him and would do anything for him. None of that would cause him a problem if he told her the truth. The problem was that she could end up becoming a risk factor if the police somehow began suspecting him. They would most definitely question her and well…Light knew that she would crack under the pressure of being questioned. Not only would that be a problem, but Violeta was a terrible liar and any police officer or detective would be able to tell right away.

"Light…?" Violeta looked at him; her head was tilted as her violet eyes gazed into his brown ones. "Are you alright? You look like you're day dreaming…"

"Sorry." Light apologized as he was shaken from his thoughts. "I was up late last night and I am still tired."

"Let me guess. You were studying again for the entrance exams on Saturday, weren't you?"

"You got me." He grinned. She would never even k now he was flat out lying to her about what he was really up to last night.

"You're already a shoe-in, Light! You've aced all of the practice tests. Besides, you're just naturally a brain so I don't see why you are exerting yourself like this. You should be resting up before the big exam" Violeta told him as they walked to Anatomy class together.

As Light sat in his Anatomy class, he stared out the window. The last time he had done that during class a killer notebook had fallen to the ground right before his eyes. 'I do love Violeta however she could end up getting in my way. Breaking things off with her would be better for Kira. Besides, I am sure she'd still want to be friends. I highly doubt she would throw away ten years of friendship. Once I explain to her that high school's over and that we should move on, everything will be fine.' Light thought to himself. There was doubt in his mind though as to whether or not he should actually go through with it. He did truly care about her and would do anything for her, but he also was ridding the world of evil. He would someday become god. People would bow down to Kira. When that time came, Light could always have Violeta ruling by his side. He'd have to just make each move carefully.

Once the day was over, Light was at Violeta's locker once more. He leaned against some of the others as he waited for her to finish up. Before he could get a word out, he felt something shoved into his hands. "Wh...What's this?" Light looked at her.

She laughed. "It's a present. You know. We've been dating a year so I figured…." She trailed, as her cheeks turning red with slight embarrassment. "I know it's probably dumb of me and all, but I just wanted to. You've always been there, Light."

'Damn. This just makes things more complicated. Vi, why must you be such a giving person? If I broke up with her right now…I'd look like such a jackass.' Light thought. He knew there was no way in hell he could possibly do it now. His emotions for her were getting in the way of that. "Thanks." He leaned over and gently kissed her cheek.

"Don't mention it. Look, I have to get home so I can get ready for work. I'll see you tomorrow." She kissed him and turned on her heel, waving as she left.

Light leaned back against the lockers, watching her until she was out of sight. He glanced down at the neatly wrapped package in his hand before opening it. Inside, was a very nice watch. And when you hit the button on the side three times, a secret compartment slid out. A little piece of paper was inside that read, "Happy Anniversary. –Vi" and there was a heart drawn next to it. He sighed hitting his head against the lockers. "What am I going to do…?" he grumbled, running a hand through his hair.

L sat in his peculiar perched position inside an L.A. Hotel. He was looking at a screen, reviewing things regarding the new killer on the loose. He was known to the public of Japan as Kira. Nobody knew who this person was or how he murdered criminals simply by a heart attack.

"Kira, I'm coming to Japan and I will bring you to justice. So tell me, how do you kill?" L had his thumb pressed against his mouth as he thought. "No matter. I will catch you." He smirked to himself.

A/N: Once again, I hope you liked it! And I will try to get another chapter out before I go to the beach and my first ever anime convention!
