BIPOLAR DEATH: THE REVOLUTION
"Death
most resembles a prophet who is without honor in his own land or a
poet who is a stranger among his people."
-Kahlil
Gibran
"Kira means black in Celtic/Gaelic. Did you know that?" L raised yet another sugary substance into his mouth. "Raito sounds like 'light' in English, which can mean God. Did you know that?" L cautiously went back to his original hunch back position. Here in the country of Japan the famous detective couldn't let his guard down once. Not even for a second of the time that he had left to live.
Raito gave an aggravated sigh, what use was this information anyway?
"Why are you telling me this?" Raito was conducting another plan, he already had his hands full but listening to useless facts that spewed out of L's mouth was time consuming.
"I was just saying it for no particular reason." L for an odd reason was twirling around and around in what he liked to call a 'twisty chair'. Raito was holding back the thought of trying to figure out L's antics. He was way too weird to comprehend. Looking again at the detective and wondered what had happened to society to call this person a 'genius'.
Everything about L screamed queer to Raito.
Just kill the darn fool…
Raito looked up at L startled. "Did you say something Ryuuzaki?" L shook his head 'no' and continued his watch over the loads of security screens, as if he missed something important in those few seconds.
Raito returned to the glaring screen that meant wasting time on acting as a diligent partner.
Stop wasting your time and just kill the darn fool…
Raito just banged on the table in frustration. "L please stop joking around!" The other bystanders hoped that another fight between the two wouldn't lead to violence.
L gave a blank stare at Raito. "Raito please stop joking around. We don't need any type of tall tale from you. Get back to work." L continued his staring contest with the screens and the rest of the team continued their regular duties. "Sorry, I just thought…never mind." Raito being the odd one out sat back down and looked once again at the profiles. They already found Yotsuba's Kira. Higuchi was dead and the Death Note was successfully back into his hands. Rem and Ryuuk were somewhere in the building waiting for his orders.
What are you waiting for?! Kill the annoying hunchback!
A shot of pain rushed up Raito's mind. Raito ignored the sting that rattled his brain. The ache only got worse. Raito had tried massaging his head, yet no effect seemed to help him.
Raito began to hit his head on the desk. His father came to his side with worry. "Are you alright? You're a little pale Raito."
Raito let his fake mask be put on in front of his father. "I'm fine it's just a small headache. It will be gone soon. So don't worry."
It was after two hours he said that phrase that Raito regretted what he said. It no longer was one of those 'small headaches' had turned into something called chaos.
The mask that he had worked so hard on putting in front of the whole team had finally broken to tiny shreds of broken pride. He couldn't handle the small burning needles wrestling to enter his brain and poke it to death. That's how much it hurt. Included with it was a voice. It was actually his own but at the same time it wasn't his voice. Did that even make sense? To Raito it made perfect sense at the moment.
Whatever he was hearing in his head he knew one thing for certain, he didn't like it.
You really are wasting time.
Raito got up and grabbed the medicine that his dad left on the counter. He really couldn't care less about the investigation right now, not with the pain banging in his head. "L I'm just going to take a short break." L shifted for a second. Raito considered it a 'yeah whatever' movement. Taking the shortest route to the room Raito continued up the stairs until that also felt like a burden had been put on his shoulders. Second by second the weight of his body began to get heavier and heavier.
Go back and kill him.
It felt as if during all that pain someone had pushed him backwards and made him fall.
"Raito!" Soichiro Yagami watched in horror when his son had fallen down the stairs. Soichiro untangled his son from the uncomfortable position he had gotten himself. Everyone else huddled around the delirious Raito, including L.
For a millisecond Raito thought L's face showed worry in those pitch black eyes.
Darkness seized Raito's conscious before he could think another thought.
In an old abandoned church on a hill with wild roses flooding the floor, Raito could see everything in black and white. Like a those old movies that had no color in the scene. Thunder and clouds that meant a hideous storm was to come. Raito fled to the broken church and walked the long pathway to the holy alter. On the old rugged cross was a person tied down with piano strings. Every single wire was hugging his bleeding flesh. With his head bowing, no clothes were able to cover this bleeding corpse.
The corpse spoke, "Help me…please!"
Raito rushed to the man's side and the corpse spoke again. "Please…die," The man lifted his face; blazing red eyes of malice matched his own. It was a reflection of himself…
"Raito-kun…Die!"
"Aaaaaah!" Raito opened his eyes to see the whole team worried over him. The wet rag had fallen from his head had now occupied Raito's leg, and yet he was still in a cold sweat.
"Are you alright? You fainted." Soichiro Yagami got up and went to get some food at a nearby table and handed it to Raito.
"Where am I?" Raito was still trying to adjust to the brightness of the room. "You're in the Medical room." It was then that Raito noticed other empty beds and the smell of hospital clinics. "Did you have a bad dream?" L had no emotion whatsoever set on his face when he asked Raito. Raito dismissed the thought of L being worried when he fell. It wasn't possible for the amazing detective to allow any sort of emotion when it came to him.
"Yeah something like that." Raito ignored the black and white images of horror that filled his mind. L patted his head. "You get a break today Raito-kun." With that L left a dazed Raito to catch up on his rest.
You had your chance idiot.
Raito felt another stab of pain in his head. This time instead of prickling needles it was hot metal nails that made his head burn. "Dammit! Who the fuck are you?!" Raito no longer cared that the cameras were watching. Even if it meant L was watching him talk to himself it didn't help get rid of the pain, not once.
You really don't know who I am? How pathetic.
Raito tried looking around the clinic. Nobody was there beside himself. This was beginning to really get creepy. "Am I going crazy?"
No you're just being an idiot, Raito-kun.
The room began to spin; every single detail had become a blurry haze. Darkness was enveloping his vision again. Raito fell to the floor completely knocked out.
It was the church again and it was still raining. The roses were black and the whole church had a sick grey tint. Raito was able to watch himself stand in the middle of the echoing hall. Another figure came between him and the holy alter. He had that same crazy laugh that Raito had when he had written a criminals name into the Death Note. Raito looked at the mirror image of himself. The only difference was the fiery red eyes that were the only color in this dull church. "Hello Raito-kun." His voice was a little deeper than Raito's. Other than some minor details, he and Raito were exactly alike. Raito did not speak. It wasn't like he could any way. His voice was shut tight in his throat. "I'm glad you chose to know who I am. You see I know every single thing about you, after all I am you." Raito wished so badly to speak and ask so many questions. All that ever came out of his mouth was a silent mumble. "You really have to listen to me more often you know. If you don't listen to me everything is just going to get worse. I really don't want to discipline you Raito-kun but if you continue on like this how am I going to create justice in this world?" Raito's eyes widened, he now knew who this clone was.
"Kira!" Raito tried to get up from the cold tiled floor yet his body wouldn't let him.
In a sudden jolt Raito was in a dark empty space with the same clone. That is until the clone went toward a strange light and left Raito with an evil smirk with intent of chaos.
"My turn Raito-kun."
From the security cameras to the televisions L was watching, he could see Raito yell out 'Kira' and then get up with not problem. It was definitely odd in L's opinion. Something about the way Raito walked had changed. Raito smirked evilly into the security camera and exited the medical clinic. Only one thought crossed L's mind; what was up with Raito?
Raito entered the office and met up with everyone talking to Ryuuk while L was watching the screens and completely ignoring L.
Raito had joined the group and began to ask questions of the death god. Soichiro Yagami had asked his son if he was alright to be up and going. Raito had reassured his father that he was fine and continued to ask Ryuuk questions.
From the corner of his eye he could see L rewinding and pausing when Raito was smirking evilly into the security camera.
You're always so much fun to play with L. I think I can keep you alive just a bit longer.
Inside the dark void Raito could see everything Kira was doing. He could see everything yet he couldn't control his body. Raito had extreme paranoia toward this 'Kira' fellow that looked like his twin. Was this even possible? Was it possible for Kira to be alive? Maybe, after Ryuuk appeared in his life he didn't see anything as surprising as much any more. But wasn't he himself Kira? Raito couldn't make any sense toward this situation. He also couldn't move since his body was being controlled by his counter half. At least that's what this 'Kira' fellow called himself, he was Kira and he was Raito.
"But I'm the real Raito!" Raito yelled at himself.
Kira smirked at his other half's antics. He could hear and feel Raito's confusion. The group wasn't getting anywhere with questioning the silent death god. Kira acted like he gave up and went back up to the bedroom with everyone watching in case he fell again like what happened last time.
Kira had felt sweaty and decided to change. Just because he had someone else's body didn't mean that he was going to be human for long. Raito opened the closet that held Raito's clothing, all grey's, black's, and white's.
Not enough black Raito-kun.
Inside the void Raito had a bad feeling about whatever Kira was planning to do.
I think a change of wardrobe will do Raito-kun.
Kira began to grab every single thing not black and put them into a large garbage bag.
Raito began to protest inside Kira's head. "What are you doing with my clothes?!"
I'm going to burn them of course.
"What?! Why the fuck are you going to do that for? Some of that stuff is expensive dammit!" Raito was trying his best to escape the mind control of Kira.
You don't have enough black clothes Raito.
Raito was beginning to become insane because of Kira.
