Death Note: Another Chance

Chapter 1: The Real Beginning

The images flashed before my eyes, people dying. The madness had yet to start, I thought. I will stop it. I will save lives, I am justice! Suddenly, my eyes opened to a bright white hospital room wall. Oh great, a hospital.

"She's awake! Get nurses! Get doctors!" An unknown voice shouted as I slowly sat up. "You should rest, you've just woken up from a coma." the same voice told me. I opened my eyes to see a man hunched over by me. He reminded me of a panda.

"... Hello..." I greeted. "Who are you? Who... am I? What am I?"

The panda-man sighed and spoke. "You are in London. I am L, and you are called Lacie. You are a human..."

"Lacie? Is that an alias?" Why did I always ask the stupidest questions? But to my surprise, the panda-man, no, L smiled a bit and nodded.

I sighed, oh great, I have amnesia. "Hey, L, I think that I have amnesia." He said nothing, and I stared at the infuriatingly white hospital wall. Suddenly, A nurse and a doctor burst into the room, startling me.

"Lacie! You're awake! I wish that your parents were too." the friendly looking nurse added the last part a bit sadly.

"So... they are dead?" I spoke, my voice emotionless.

"I'm afraid so." The nurse answered me, looking sorry.

"Can I leave." Wow, I was already bored of this hospital.

"No, you can't leave. You have been in this coma for six months. We were beginning to wonder if you would ever wake up." the nurse then turned to the doctor. "She has amnesia, I'll arrange for an orphanage to come pick her up."

"I'll take her to an orphanage." L interrupted. Slowly, I stood up and stumbled over to L. But then, my eyes closed. An image, a memory flashed before my eyes. And it was frightening. He was after me.

Thanks for reading! Please review, I & ThePriestofHope (my editor) worked very hard on this. I am already writing the second chapter of this story. I don't own Death Note, if I did there would be a sequel, and Matt & Mello would be alive! Chapter 2 should be up soon!
