This is Part 2 of L's Beginning.
I don't own Death Note... Sorry Chapter 1 is so short, I wanted to leave it at a cliff hanger!
Lawliet stared through a crystal clear river. A figure with auburn hair and brown eyes that were almost red sat on a small broken stair case. He had blood stains all over his clothes, defeated. Lawliet stood up from the scene walking away from the looking glass river.
"Well Light, it looks like you lost…" Lawliet said. Lawliet tried to make sense of his emotions. I'm note vengeful or happy, he thought. I'm actually kind of depressed… Lawliet sighed looking across the blank, blue sky. I can't tell if this is Heaven or Hell. "Wonder where you'll be going, Light?" Lawliet knew that a person who used a Death Note could go to neither and the thought intrigued him.
Lawliet walked silently across a perfectly green field among the plain, colorless houses. Was this supposed to be like a suburb? The houses looked exactly the same; two small windows facing the green fields of grass, since cars didn't exsist there wasn't use for roads, placed on the top floor of the house, One large window on the ground level, A gray roof, white painted wood for the houses and door and four stairs that led to it, and a wooden swing on the porch. The houses were each surrounded by a small, white picket fence and a single tree was planted in the front yard.
Lawliet felt empty as he walked home. He often spent his days looking into the looking glass in order to see how his friend was doing. He thought it was strange that he couldn't hate Light after what he did. After all, he killed him. Lawliet still thought of him as a friend and felt no remorse for it.
Lawliet passed by Central Square, the center of this strange place. A rather large crowd was forming across the street. I heard vicious chants while a large agonizing scream echoed in the background. Curious Lawliet walked to examine the problem.
He saw a small figure was laying shirtless on the ground as people began beating and screaming. Lawliet couldn't get a clear view of who it was. He heard a large crack after someone managed to kick the creature in the ribs.
Lawliet saw the dent in the creature's side. The dent soon healed due to the fact that you could not get killed in a place like this. Lawliet heard a familiar voice scream out, "Please stop this!" Lawliet's dark gray eyes widened more than they already were. He began pushing through the crowd. Everyone stopped and was silent when Lawliet stood directly in front of the creature. He stared in horror.
A man in black slacks sat on his knees before him. His back was arched forward making his face hidden from Lawliet. All he could see was his auburn hair. His arms were outstretched behind him. His wrists had thick, silver chains that linked to the ground. His pale back had faded blood along it from where people had beaten him. He sat panting as Lawliet stood petrified. It can't be, he thought.
"L-Light," Lawliet managed to say. He saw the man's ears cock, but he made no effort to look up. "Light Yagami?"
Light slowly moved his head up to face the voice that called him. Light studied the face before him that was Lawliet's. His eyes grew wide in horror and realization. "R-Ryuzaki!"
