Chapter 1

Death Note. A New Beginning.

Scenario: During the events of the manga, Light lost his memories of the Death Note and he never touched it to regain his memories of it. Misa was tried and convicted of being the second Kira and she is currently awaiting her sentence for her crimes. After that, the series of heart attacks had came to a screeching halt. After they concluded the case closed, L and the Task Force burned the Death Note, while the other remains buried. L had offered Light a proposition after everything. He requested that Light join him in solving crimes all over the world. Their Headquarters is currently stationed in New York City to investigate a new series of crimes.

I don't own L or Light or the Death Note. I do have one I bought a Zen Garden though. :P

And now our story begins.

It was a beautiful sunny day in New York. L and Light wasted no time in trying to figure out their suspect for the case they were working on. Watari contacts L over his cell, notifying him that he had just sent L the documents of all of the victims that had been attack in the past few months. Light looks up over L's shoulder, "That's the files of all the victims?" Light blinked in surprise. There had to be over 60 victims and possibly more unknown ones.

"Yes. I've already compared all the data and made notes on all the similarities of each crime." L grabbed a few blocks of sugar, stacking them next to his cup of steaming hot tea. Light scanned the documents quickly and easily noticed similarities.

"Okay.. So most of the victims are female.. They're all young and fairly attractive.. All of their deaths were at night, nothing was stolen from them.. And the were all drained of their blood? What is this? Some kind of wannabe vampire we're dealing with?" He scoffed. This seemed like a joke to him.

"I suppose. That's all the similarities I could see." L dropped the sugar cubes in his tea one by one, then stirring it with a spoon that had the letter L on the handle. "Nothing else connects the women though. Their jobs are all different. They don't live nearby each other. There's no evidence that these women even knew the others existed."

Light put his hand on his chin in wonder. "This is very interesting. I can see why you took the case. So how're we going to investigate this case? Use ourselves as bait?" He said almost in a joking manner.

"It's a possibility," L looks up at Light, "Light-kun would have to dress like a woman though." A small smile played on his face. He took a sip of his tea.

"NO! ABSOLUTELY NOT!" Light growls, glaring at L. "You are insane!"

"This is for the case, Light-kun." L persisted. "We have to figure out who the suspect is if we are to save the city from a blood draining maniac."

"NO! I REFUSE TO CROSS DRESS" Light's face flushed red with anger. He turned around and walked out of the room.

"Light-kun..." L sighed, pressing a button on the computer screen, "Watari, I believe we need to take Light-kun on a little shopping trip."

Later that night..

"I can't believe you're making me do this.." Light mumbled a stream of curses at L. He was dressed in a mini-skirt and a blouse. A bra with stuffing were put on him so he would at least have the chest of a woman. His hair was styled a bit differently. He had a purse and was wearing high heels that he managed not to kill L with.

"Now now. That's not very lady like." L winked.

"I hate you so much, Ryuzaki.." Light bit his lip which had strawberry lip gloss on it. Which tasted good to Light, though he would never admit it.

"Be careful, Light. I don't want anything bad to happen." L told him before he left.

"Yeah. I'll kill you if you don't leave.." Light muttered as he strutted down the alley in his heels.

-[In the shadows above..]

The dark figure looked upon the female with hungry eyes.. "Young.. very attractive.. a little masculine, but that's not a bad thing.. now only if the raven haired boy would leave her alone.." He watches anxiously as L leaves.

Light paces nervously, twiddling his thumbs. He hears some footsteps behind him and he turns quickly.

"Who's there/" He cries out in a shrill voice. He actually sounded like a woman.

"...the boogieman." the shadowed figure lunges himself at Light, gripping him tightly, baring his sharp canines. Light gasps and struggles, that's when the dark figure notices something odd about him.

"You're a man!" He throws Light against the wall. "Disgusting!" Light hit his head against the wall and he heard a sickening crack sound. He probably fractured his skull due to the blow. Light made a quick mental note: The suspect is extremely straight.

The dark figure lunged towards Light, growling like an animal. "You smell of death.. but I don't care.. I'm too thirsty.." The figure reached his hand over and touched Light's head. Searing pain ripped into his skull. His head was throbbing horribly; his heart rate was too quick. The figure pulled his hand back and licked Light's blood off of his hand. "Ahhhh.. so sweet.." then he sinks his teeth into Light's neck. Light screams in agony as his life's blood is drained from his body.

L rushes over after hearing Light scream and sees the figure holding Light's limp and pale body, drained of his blood. He gasps and backs away. The shadowy figure sees him and realizes he's been caught. He snarls and stands up and starts walking towards the terrified man.

L couldn't move and was frozen stiff in terror. He never felt so horrified before. How was he going to survive this?

Will L perish just like Light-kun or will he be saved? review and find out. ;P
