I do not clam ownership over Death Note or its characters.
Light Yagami sighed as school was finally let out for the day. He walked along the school grounds to the item of his ultimate curiosity. As soon as he approached it he looked around for gossiping on goers and once he was sure the coast was clear enough, he reached down picked up the strange book.
'Death Note,' Light thought to himself. 'It must be one of those gag pranks...or someone has a sick sense of secrecy' Light sighed again and pushed the book into his school bag and continued on his way without incident.
Soon enough Light arrived home to be greeted by his mother and went upstairs to his room before he had to go to classes.
"So stupid," Light stated as he tossed the joke book onto his desk and crashed onto his bed and slumped exhaustively. For some reason the book was still bugging Light, with one eye he took a glance over to his desk where the book was carelessly thrown. Slowly, he got up from the bed and approached his desk. "I can't believe I'm this gullible." Light whispered to himself as he opened the book and read the first page. For the next few minutes all Light did was read the book.
'Instructions?' Light questioned himself, 'Oh for pete's sake!' Light again threw the book onto his desk and this time turned on the television to his bedroom.
The rest of what happened to Light went in a flash and the next thing reality knew-Light had just killed someone! Not just anyone, but filth. Garbage. Light then left the house to truly test out the abilities of the book. He walked to a nearby convenience store and wrote the name of another man. He died soon after.
To reality it was merely a deeply troubling self-discovery of Light's, however the truth of it was. Light was already gone. Even when Kira didn't yet have his name...he was already there.
