Chapter 1: 5 years later….
The worldwide broadcast appeared that day. The black L on white backgrounds appeared on screens across the world. "I believe it has passed to much time since last time I said hello" a computerized voice spoke. "I am L, and Kira is dead. I defeated Kira" it said. "This may appear as a shock or a lie, but even though Kira's power has only grown, it is over now".
The Japanese task force and Yagami family stood at a graveyard, next to a big marble tombstone. On the stone, it was written in gold: Yagami Light, rest in peace, top student of Japan. Light's mother and sister looked at it teary-eyed. "I miss him as well, but remember what he did. He couldn't continue forever" Aizawa said calmly. "I-I know, but… Light…" Sayu said, her voice nearly cracking. Sachiko laid a bouquet of blue flowers on the grave, bowed and left along with her daughter. "Well, it's over" Mogi announced. "Remember when the chief said we had to find new jobs when the case was done?" Matsuda asked. "Now that you mention it, yes" Aizawa agreed. "I suppose it's time to do that now" Ide agreed. They turned and left the graveyard.
5 years later…
19-year-old David Fletcher was enjoying his summer break, sitting in a relaxing chair on the balcony of his apartment, enjoying the sunny weather. He was currently reading a detective novel. He always enjoyed solving a difficult case along with the main character. He loved watching the detective face off everyone in order to find information and details. It was definitely his type of books. He sighed, closed the book, and went inside to grab a soda. He sighed. Detectives entertained him, but he only admired Kira. Kira was a person with a true sense of justice, who had will and power to change the world forever. He wished to fulfil what Kira started. But there was no way he could do that. At least he thought so. But luck was on his side that summer.
The day started as usual. David got up, did some exercise, ate breakfast, and brushed his teeth. He decided to take a walk in a park to get some fresh air. He headed down the street and ended up in his favourite park, full of cherry trees. He sat down on a bench and relaxed. Although he didn't understand what, something was disturbing him. He looked around, and was unable to see anything that wasn't supposed to be there. Once again, the thought of Kira came to his mind. He had been able to believe in Kira in a way he had never felt before. He trusted Kira, and would always support him. Kira didn't scare him. Kira made him feel safe. A rustling of leaves woke him up from his thoughts. He looked at the noise's source and realised what had disturbed him earlier. A black book was hanging in a tree, about to fall to the ground. I walked over to the tree, reached for the book, and took it. The words "Death Note" was written on it. "What is this?" David wondered. He opened it and looked at the rules. "This is… Strange… but if it's the real thing…" He shrugged, and went home, carrying the notebook with him. When he came home, his 3 roommates had arrived. "Hi David! I'm making pasta for dinner" Frank said. "All right" David replied, walking into his room. Feeling the intense heat, he opened the window wide and sat down next to his desk. "If this is real… I can do what Kira did… What if this was Kira's notebook five years ago?" he said to himself. "I could test it… But first, I must plan out how I will use it if it is in fact real." He went over to his bed, closed his eyes, and thought for a long time.
"David!" His roommate Jessica called. "It's dinner". "Ok, I'll be there in a minute" he replied. He sat up and opened his eyes. What he saw shocked him. It was a tall creature, with a grey face and sharp teeth. It was wearing a long black coat, dark camouflage pants and black boots. He was wearing belts with knives strapped to them. "Hello. I see you found my notebook. I am Sanjo the Shinigami" he said. "That's good to hear. You alone are enough proof that the Death Note is real. Then I only have to plan how I'll use it. I will finish what Kira started! There is no doubt about it!" he exclaimed, and started chuckling. "I will defeat L at any cost. I will change the world". He left his room and went to eat.
