Kagome stared wide eyed at the man who was coughing and spluttering on the train station's ground, all visible signs of the heart attack that he had almost died from had completely disappeared. He was alive, her powers had gotten rid of the awful aura that had surrounded him.

The six-year-old slumped to the ground, the murmurs of the crowd around them growing louder and yet slightly further away as ambulance men came in with a stretcher.

"Hey kid, do you uh, want to come with us?" she heard one of them ask her, closing her mouth, she looked up at them and nodded whilst slowly standing up.

She knew as soon as the man had stepped out of the train's carriage and proceeded to collapse, it was the work of Kira, the horrible feeling of the Death Note covered him.

She had stopped the power that Kira held.


So many things had happened since the final battle with Naraku.

First, the Shikon-no-Tama had taken her back in time through her own past and put her back into her six-year-old body, her family could not remember anything, which for her was a blessing in disguise as she'd rather forget about everything that had happened.

Second, her family was involved in a shoot-out, an armed thief decided that the shrine would be a good place to rob, they had been shot to death whilst she had been at school, leaving her orphaned.

Third, she had refused to go to an orphanage, rendering her homeless. She had refused to go to an orphanage as she had seen it as an opportunity to travel and learn about the world, even though she was still too sad to leave Japan at that point in time.

A rather annoying part about refusing to go to an orphanage however is the fact they knew she had no living relatives and thus continuously attempted to find her and bring her in, she had remembered seeing herself in the newspapers a couple of times.

Sitting in a hospital room, leaning against the bed the man she had saved was laid out on, she realized just how easy it would be for them to find her.

Hearing a knock at the door, she sat up and stared at it as it opened up, revealing a woman.

"Hello there." she said as she came over and sat next to her, she blinked at her shyly, ducking down a little bit. The woman noticed this and smiled at her.

"You were the one that saved his life, right?" she asked, gulping, Kagome nodded her head slowly.

"It's okay, I'm not going to hurt you, you did save my fiance's life." blinking up at her, she licked her lips slowly and replied.

"H-he's your f-fiance?" she felt a lot less awkward around the woman now that she knew what she was here for, a woman who was engaged to a man who had almost been killed by Kira, yet miraculously survived thanks to a six-year-old. She'd be worried too.

"Yes, I want to thank you." Kagome stiffened up as she felt the woman hug her, but easily relaxed into it.

"You're welcome, but, it was the right thing to do." she muttered, not caring if she heard it or not.


For the next several days, Kagome remained by the unconscious male's side, unwilling to leave, just in case he was attacked by the power of the Death Note once again, he got several visitors a day, from his fiancee and her family to his parents who had heard about it and flown there, they had profusely thanked her to the point of almost smothering her.

Today's first visitor was a bit different from the rest, she was pretty sure he wasn't a relative of his and he had been followed in shortly by an older gentleman, she felt a bit awkward, just sitting in the silence with the odd people, waiting for them to speak.

"How did you do it?" she blinked, turning to look at him with openly curious eyes.

"Do what?" she answered his question with a question of her own.

"How did you stop the heart attack that was caused by Kira?" she blinked a few times before turning her head to the side in a confused puppy sort of manner.

"I-I don't really know." it wasn't a lie, she still didn't know how her powers worked, she just followed her gut feelings. She heard him make a sound as if he were contemplating her answer.

"What if I told you I was L?" he shot at her.

"I'd believe you." came her reply.

"Just like that?"

"You have the feeling I'd get from someone who spends most of their time watching TV crime drama, so it's not that hard to believe." she muttered, leaning onto the bed.

"I see."

It wasn't long before the odd duo left.


Kagome awoke to a confused cry, blinking her eyes to remove the blurriness from sleep, she looked at the very confused male who was staring at her.

"You're awake!" she cried out in relief.

"Who are you? Where am I? I thought I was a goner, wait, am I in the hospital? How long was I out?" she answered his questions without missing a beat.

"My name's Kagome, yes you're in the hospital, you were out for a week and a half."

"A week and a half? Oh no, oh no."

"Please don't panic, it won't be good for your heart, especially after you had a heart attack." she fretted over him, whilst leaning for the button to call the nurse in, said nurse came in quickly and shooed her out.

Stumbling out of the room and into the hallway, she took out the money and the paper that Naomi had given her so that she could call her when he woke up. Kagome looked around and quickly spotted a pay phone, tapping the numbers in quickly, she waited out the ring tone and sighed as she heard the older woman pick up.

"Hello?" came the tired muttering from the other end.

"Naomi, he's awake." she told her.

"Really? I'm on my way!" came the ecstatic reply, before hanging up quickly, not giving her a chance to reply.

Trudging to the small waiting room, she sat and stared at the silent TV playing the news.

About half an hour later, Naomi stormed into the room and sat next to her as they waited, after another fifteen minutes of waiting, the two were called into the room.

Naomi ran up to her fiance and hugged him.

"Naomi, can't, breathe." he gasped out.

"Heh, sorry, Raye." she muttered.

"It's no problem, but could you tell me something?" he asked.

"Anything."

"I know who she is, but what's the kid doing here?" he looked at the older woman, Kagome shuffled on her feet, suddenly aware of just how dirty she must look and smell to the older male.

"Raye, Kagome's the one who saved your life."
