NEW WORLD ORDER
Light Yagami sat in his desk by the window in his classroom, fidgeting with his eraser as he stare to the outside world beyond the glass window. He paid no heed to the lesson at the front of the room; he's already learned and mastered the subject. When he wasn't pretending to pay attention to the class teacher, he would watch people from the window. Today however, was a rather slow day outside, and Light was almost lulled into taking a nap.
But then, from the very corner of his eye, he saw a rapid movement from outside the window. It was very sudden, and if Light hadn't have dropped his eraser a second earlier, he might not have seen it.
As he laid eyes on the outside field, he saw a black square in the shape of something familiar. A notebook, maybe.
Was somebody on the school roof? Did someone chuck it out the window?
Light stared at the notebook, waiting to see if the notebook's owner would pick it up. After minutes of watching, no one seemed to claim it, and people outside didn't seem to care much to look at it as they continued to walk past it.
Whose notebook is that? Light wondered. Maybe if I hurry out of the classroom once the session is over, I can go take a look at it.
From a distance, the notebook looked like your ordinary composition notebook. Normally, Light would simply ignore the darned thing and just fidget with the eraser or doodle on the edge of a loose-leaf paper. But, for some reason, it seemed to call to him. The outside world looked dark and hazy, and in the middle, was the notebook... Something mysterious loomed around it, but it couldn't be named...
For the rest of the class, Light found it extremely hard to focus his attention to the teacher or the outside world.
No matter what way he tried to look, he always found himself staring at the little black book from the corner of his eyes.
"Please remember; The assignment is due exactly one week from today. I won't accept it late or incomplete, so it's best that you all start working on it as soon as possible." The teacher explained to the anxious class waiting to leave. "Have a good weekend."
The second the bell rang, Light was one of the first people to rush out the door. He ignored the calls of his friends for the time being; if he let himself slow down, he wouldn't get to see the notebook that so disturbed his class time today.
If I remember correctly, Light thought, it should be around here...
Light searched around the campus left and right for the spot that he remembered it falling.
The window over there is the one I was looking out of at the time of the notebook falling... So, it must be right... here?
Once he was certain he found the spot that he saw the notebook earlier, he sighed as he saw nothing but a patch of bent grass. He looked around the patch for a second, if the notebook had fallen elsewhere than where Light remembered it, and sighed once he confirmed that the notebook was no longer on the ground.
Oh well, Light said, beginning to walk back to the regular route to his home,
I guess someone already picked it up.
