I never imagined, that this would happen. All I did was pick up a book, but that book sent me spiraling into the plot of my favorite anime. Maybe I should start from the beginning...

~Dark clouds roll in across the waters,

Shadows of memories past.

Raptured life ends before tomarrow,

It's over, at last.~

It was like any other day, and I was heading home from work. After a long and boring day at high school, I go to work at a bakery for an hour. Then it's a long walk to pick up my younger syblings from daycare, which is about twenty miles away.

While walking, I ran into a young woman. Instantly, I turned around to apologize,only to come face to face with a woman that looked exactly like me. Well...ALMOST...

She had the same, short, golden hair as I did. I don't mean golden blonde, I mean gold like a gold necklace shining in the sun. Her figure was as delicate as my own small form and she had gental eyes that showed both a longing and sadness for something she could never have. The color of her eyes matched her hair, unlike my electric blue eyes, and her pupils were cat-like.

Her eyes widened when she saw me, then she looked at my Death Note T-shirt. "I-I'm so sorry, ma'am. I didn't see you." I stammered out. She nodded and leaned towards me."What is your name? You seem familiar," While she spoke I noticed her eyes widen as she glanced above my head. I couldn't help but wonder if she had shinigami eyes.

"M-my name is...Ryuu Tsuki. W-what's your name?" I asked nervously. Why is she saying I'm familiar? Have we met? The woman looked at me as if she didn't believe me, but then changed entirely." My name is Tikoga and I know that your lying. What is your real name?" She said with an air of confidence around her. How did she know?

"F-fine...I-I don't have a real name...as far as I know, I never did. I call myself Ryuu because I-I love dragons and ryuu is Japanese for dragon, and Tsuki means moon, since I love to stare at the moon." I said, seeing the satisfactory look she got. "What about the children?" She asked. H-how? How did she know? "You mean Twitch and Terra? They don't have names either, but that's what they like being called." I said.

Tikoga looked pleased."You are very honest and good. You instantly apologized when you ran into me and were completely honest when I questioned you." "I lied about my name, so why...?" I asked confused."That is the name you go by. It was only natural that you would assume that is what I meant." "Oh..."

She walked on, but dropped something, saying,"We'll meet again. Real soon." I picked it up and saw that it was a book. Turning it over I read the title, The Book of the Dead. I thought the title matched the picture very well. The wilting, blood-red flower hung limply on a light brown, wilted stem, surrounded by blackness.

I walked on and was exhausted when I reached the daycare center. The troublesome twins sat waiting for me, as usual. Once they saw me I was nearly knocked to the ground. I swear these kids were mine...To bad we aren't blood related. We walked home together like always.

Once at home I opened the book to see if it was like a Death Note. To my suprise, it was the opposite. The instructions read:

1) If you chose to accept this book you will gain a power of jugdement over the souls of this world.

2)This book allows you to give life back to the dead, who are currently in livable conditions.

3)All you must do is write that persons name in the book within 24 hours and they will return to life almost immediately.

4)You must be in a life-threatening situation to make this book work.

5)You must NEVER show this book to anyone who may abuse it's power.

6) You must use the book for good, if not you will fade from this world along with its guardian

"Fade?" I wondered aloud. "Yessss, fade. To fade meansss to disssappear from thisss world, only the insstructionsss are for the Death Note world." Said the voice of Tikoga, putting emphasis on the S. I turned around coming face to face with her again, only she didn't LOOK like the Tikoga I met. I was staring into the eyes of the Universe's most beautiful, yet most deadly being. A dragon.

The fur lining her back was a shaggy, golden, explosion and she had scales of the deepest shade of amethyst. Long feelers snaked around, exploring the room for this amazing creature while she focused on me. Feathered wings were folded against her side, their deep sapphire color matching the amethyst and gold. Silver talons raked against the carpet.

"You must go to the world of Death Note and try to change the plot. Chose a side now." She said. "What about T and T?" I asked, not wanting to leave my syblings alone. "They will come." Sighing with relief I spoke,"I shall aid L, but I shall act neutral." Tikoga's lips curled into what I figured was the dragons equivalent of a smile. "You like messimg with people don't you? This will be , anyone you save with that book while there will appear to you."

Suddenly, everything started to get blurry insinctively I stood up and grasped the table so hard my knuckles turned white. Turning around I saw Tikoga's look, sorrow, concern, and...suprise? I stumbled towards the dragon reaching for her."And another thing, you do not need to touch a death note to see a shinigami." The world went black.

I woke in a house with Twitch and Terra clinging to my arms. There was a weight in my hand and, once I saw it, I realized where I was. Death Note. "Awake already? Perhaps now I should offer the deal. You can make this deal whenever you want. If you do you will have the chance to trade part of your body, such as a hand or ears, for mine and be allowed to use the Book of the Living." Tikoga said.

"What about school?"I said, after all what would happen if an 18 year-old and two 5 year-olds were seen coming and going at all hours of the day? "Taken care of, you start in two days. Oh and you'll be attending with Light Yagami..."The devilish grin she had told me to be careful. I nodded and turned on the T.V. I had to see where we were in the plotline. Sure enough L was challenging Kira.

"Come on! Kill me!What's the matter? Can't you do it? So there are people you can't kill, huh?" The mechanical voice said. I listened as he said the broadcast was really in the Kanto region of Japan. Thanks L, now I know where I am and what part of the story I'm in. I couldn't help it. I started to laugh like crazy. It started as a small chuckle, escalating into a full-scale, psycotic laugh.

I was always told that I was slightly mad. Lee-Lee said that I was a girl version of Beyond Birthday. Minus the murdered three people thing. I only killed once and it was self defense. "Tikoga, did Beyond Birthday die yet?" I asked. She gave me a questioning look, then said,"Your arrival has saved him for now, but He may die soon." "Monitor him. I will save him and he will come to me...He will be my messenger. Better yet, bring him here." "But...oh, you know about the telepathy thing...very well."

With that Tikoga left. I realized though, that she was rather small. Well as far as dragons go, anways. Maybe she was a young dragon? Oh well, I had more important things to do. Apparently I had a credit card, so I went shopping. The clothes I got were faded jeans, tie-dyed T-shirts, a cat mask, and a gold dragon necklace.

After dropping of the clothes I got for myself,Twitch and Terra, I got an army of computer monitors, an ipod, a laptop, a PSP, and an X Box. After dropping that off I went back out to get food, mostly sugar. I NEED my sugar or else. I got fruit for Terra, and an assortment of jam for Twitch.

I smiled as I made my plans.

Tikoga's POV

This is boring. I just sit in this cell watching a murderer. "Lights out!" A guard calls. Everything got quiet fast and I watched as this psycotic killer jumped into the bed like a kitten pouncing on it's owner.

I groaned, recieving a stunned glace from the killer. Beyond sat up and stared at me. "Who's there? Don't try hiding, I know you're here." "I can not reveal myself to you yet, but-" "Why not?" Beyond demanded, interupting me. " No manners, eh? Fine, but don't scream." I said, as my form shimmered, revealing me.

Beyond fell back suprised,"WHAT THE HELL! What are you? A monster? How'd you get in here?" I could see the confusion in his crimson eyes, and I was amused."I am Tikoga, a dragon. I have come to free you, on one condition...you must come and work for a friend of mine."

He looked suspicious, but nodded. A scream shattered the errie silence. A guard was pale and was pointing right at me. At least I wouln't be caught on camera, my scales reflect and bend light and render me invisible to most. Especailly with cameras.

I release a jet of dark blue dragon-fire that blasted through the wall of the cell and engulfed everything. Scooping up the murderer in one clawed hand as I ran past, I leapt into the night. Snapping open my wings, I gained speed, soon moving faster than sound with a murderer in my hands.

L's POV

My phone rang. I really hated those things, but they were useful. Picking it up with two fingers, I answered,"Yes?" Watari was on the other end and sounded worried."L? It's terrible. Beyond Birthday has escaped." I froze, that psycopath was loose? "L, the survalence video is...strange...Beyond starts talking to someone and...the prisoners and guards...panic. They act hysterical, screaming, running, then blue fire engulfs the place."

For once I don't understand what I'm being told. Beyond, blue fire? "Watari, please send me copies of the videos. I will need to find Beyond as quickly as possible." "I'm sending the footage now..." An email appeared on one of the many computers so I opened it. Hanging up the phone, I watched the video.

Focusing on the spot where the guard was pointing, I noticed something shimmering. A terrified gasp filled the area. The shimmering thing...moved? The thing scurried around a little and Beyond watched it.

Watari was right, the video was strange. That thing was the source of the noise, I was sure of that. Then the fire erupted from behind the bars of the cell. The dark blue color of the flames was unnatural, and as if that wasn't strange enough the fire had become thousands of stars in the hall. The stars exploded and I was watching supernovas on Earth. I stared, transfixed, as the colors swirled together, it was like looking at a calidescope.

A faint sound in the background snapped me out of my trance. A snapping sound, like wet silk being shaken out, followed by a momentary flapping, then a sonic boom. A sapphire feather the size of the couch I was perched on floated into view.

Twitch's POV

"Follow this man, understand?" Tikoga said handing us a picture of a hyper looking, black-haired police officer."He will lead you to L." We nodded and left, heading for the police station. We watched as the Kira Task Force split into groups.

We followed the man from the picture until his group arrived at a hotel. "Twitch..." Terra said nudging me. I understood an pulled out an ipod, my own design. Scrolling through all the choices...time-lapse, fogging...I decided on fogging the cameras.

We followed the men into the elevator and went unnoticed. Terra pulled something out of her bag. Her pocessed doll, Mizu, was a porcelin doll in a blue kimono embroirdered with green dragons. The doll, Terra calls her Zephyre, had her kimono stained with blood from who knows how long ago.

The elevator stopped and the men got out. We followed them when they entered a hotel room. L was standing there, scratching his leg with his foot. I only half listened as the officers introduced themselves, Yagami, Mogi, Ukita, Aizawa, Matsuda.

"Sorry we're late we jus-" L lifted his hand and made a gun shape."Bang." "What was that?" The man called Aiziwa said. "If I were Kira you would be dead by now Yagami-san. Please don't give out your names so freely." Everyone nodded."Please come in. Turn off all phones and place them on the table there." L instructed.

Finally, he noticed us."...Why did you bring these children?" He asked pointing at us. Everyone turned to face us. "Good evening gentalmen," I began," I am called Twitch and this is my sister Terra and our friend Zephyre. We have been sent to aid panda-san on the Kira case."

"Um...sent by who, exactly?" The man called Matsuda asked. "Yes, who sent you?" L asked, well more like demanded. "Our employer, he was very confident when he sent us." I said. "Who is your employer?" L asked, I thought he looked annoyed. Terra set Zephyre on the floor and pulled out a laptop.

I opened it and a set of scales appeared on screen. Strangely the bar that supported the baskets of the scales were made of two connected, bloody scythes. "Good evening everyone, L have you seen the video of Beyond Birthday's escape?" A mechanical voice asked.

"...Yes, now who are you?" L asked, annoyance becoming obvious. "I am Beyond Justice. You may call me Beyond-san. I know who Kira is, how he kills, and I have already contacted him." The look on L's face was priceless, something like confusion and astonishment. The next part will scare him to death.

"I also know your real name and..." The voice paused as I took a picture on my ipod, "now I have your picture." Once he realized what had happened, he looked like he was going to faint. "What do you want Beyond-san?" His voice shook slightly, but it was barely noticable.

"I want to see who's sense of justice I like better. Once I chose, then the person I chose will gain the desired information." The voice replied. "Wait! I-I can't work with some one who won't show their face! That means you don't trust us." Matsuda said. Of course, we thought about that. "All in due time, friends. All in due time."

Ryuu's POV

( 1 week ago)

Tikoga returned with a terrified Beyond Birthday. We explained that we sent Twitch and Terra to contact L already, well we tried. I'll admit that he was stubborn, but in the end he listened. Once we explained everything, I hand-cuffed him to me. It was only temporary.

(Present day)

From what I was told, Naomi was going to die today, so I figured now was a good time to leave. As I approched the police station I saw Light Yagami not far behind. Tikoga was right behind me.

As I arrived, I literally ran into her. " Sorry! I'm so sorry!" I said instinctively.

Naomi spoke up,"Oh it's okay! Sorry for getting in the way." "Um, Miss? If you don't mind me asking, why are you here?" I asked, putting on my best innocent face. "Oh...well, I have some important information for the Kira case."

"Really? Me to! I think Kira kills with more than heart attacks!" I said. "That's what I think! But, how did you come to that conclusion?" she said. "My sister took my twin siblings on a bus that was hijacked. The guy hijacking it hallucinated and jumped of the bus and was hit by a car. I also think Kira was on that bus and the hijacking was a setup for something." "Me to! My fiancee was an FBI agent who was forced to show his ID. He died a week later of a heart attack."

I heard Tikoga laugh and I knew that Light was listening in on our conversation. I could only imagine his face. " Well Miss, why not come with me? I could use your help. You see..." I leaned closer to Naomi and she did the same," I'm a detective working on the Kira case and I have already contacted L." I whispered. That was only half true. Twitch and Terra contacted L for me while Tikoga worked as the voice behind the picture on a laptop.

"I will help you, then my friend." Naomi replied after a slight pause. "Alright then, welcome to the secret orginization for the Kira case. I will tell you more once we are back at base." I said, leading Naomi away. She was honest with me about everything I asked about. She told me Kira had killed her fiancee, that she was looking for him, and she explained her theories.

I stopped her. "Naomi, You will be my messenger to L. The current messengers are only 5 and I am worried about their safety."She nodded,"Yes, I will." That was good, but she won't like the next part...I know she won't."Also, I will have you hand-cuffed to Beyond Birthday. " "WHAT? ARE YOU MAD? HE MIGHT KILL ME!" "Firstly, I have created a human shock collar you can use on command by saying 'sit'. Secondly, refer to me as if I am male. Thirdly, I will refer to you as Mana-san." I told her calmly.

She eyed me curiously, but nodded. That's to people I've saved.
