A/N: Hi! This is my first OC fanfic that I've posted on FF, so please don't judge too harshly. DX
Disclaimer: I do not own Death Note.
Michelle sighed upon stepping off of her school bus. "Another boring day..." she said, adjusting her backpack and being rewarded by a sharp pain on either side.
She really hated her school – she was more intelligent than most of the people in her high school, and completely uninterested in the things they liked. The things that she did like normally had some sort of connection to anime – something not well liked in her school. She didn't know of anyone in her school - or any of her classes - that enjoyed it, actually. So she looked forward to an escape every time she got home.
The first thing she did when she got home was to throw her backpack in her room and finish what was left of her homework (she did some of it at school so she would have less do at home). The next, and more important, thing was to flip her computer open and begin surfing the Internet. It was her only escape – there was nothing that made her happier than being in her own little world. But, as with everything, there was a flaw.
It was fake.
It may have kept her entertained, but she knew that everything she was enjoying so much – watching anime and commenting on how good-looking the men were – were just fake things drawn up by a stranger in a different country, that she would probably never meet to tell how much she loved his works.
So every night, when she closed the computer and turned off her light, she crawled into bed hoping that, one day, she'd meet someone that was anything like an anime character, hoping that her life would be a bit more interesting, or she'd wish that somehow, she could be a part of an anime as well. She'd be eternally young and go on plenty of fun adventures - it was a win-win!
She knew, though, that it was impossible for her to be transported into a television show, in any shape or form, so she vowed to make do with dreams. Dreaming was as close as she could get.
However, as the inner workings of her mind decided to show their true potential, her impossible wish became possible – and true.
