Shinigami realm
Third person
(day 1)
The crocodile skulled shinigami tossed the mouse bones into the bowl. "Woohoo! I win again!" He then looked around to see that there was no one around to win against. He sighed, and looked over to the cliff that Ryuk normally sat on. There was a shinigami there, but it was not Ryuk. "Hey! Faceless!" Crocodile head called. The red haired shinigami turned. "My name isn't faceless." He replied in a scratchy voice. It sounded like it was barely used. "Ok then, what is your name?" "Raito." He responded.
Raito was short for a shinigami, not much taller than the average human. He had red-orange hair that fell over his right eye. His large feathery wings where out, right one black, left one white. His hands had long bone claws protruding from the last joint. He was dressed in all black with strips of white bandages hanging loosely off of him. Everything about this shinigami was black and white, except for the red hair and crimson eyes.
"Come join me in a friendly game!" Crocodile skull smiled. It was a gruesome sight. "I don't gamble." Raito sighed. "Well then, tell me how you got here, it's not often we get a new shinigami." Raito composed himself. He supposed it wouldn't hurt to tell this one shinigami his story, even though he didn't plan on remaining in Limbo much longer. "Ok."
"I was once a human known as Kira by some. I was foolish. And had this strange view on right vs wrong. Then a death note came into my hands, and I became a killer. I murdered countless people because of my own selfishness, but because of that selfishness, I met my true love. I made a deal with the shinigami Ryuk so that I too could become a shinigami. I became a shinigami, and betrayed the shinigami laws. I fell in love, and killed his killer before he had a chance to kill him, therefore killing myself. Being a death note user, I could go to nether heaven nor hell, so I was sent here, to Limbo. Now, I'm waiting for my lover to touch the death note so I can go to earth and be with him."
Raito looked away from crocodile face. "Wow, that is possibly the most emo thing i've ever heard." The older shinigami laughed. "One thing I'd like to know though. You where really Kira? What made you fell like sacrificing yourself?" Raito smiled slightly. "I told you. I was childish and selfish. Then I fell in love, and I matured. I realized what was really important in my life. That would be him. My lover."
Suddenly, Raito stiffened. "I am finished my wait." He murmured. He streched out his oversized wings, and flew off.
Crocodile face sat there, stunned for a moment, then saw something on the ground. A small glistening tear that had come from the love struck shinigami. Crocodile face shook his skull like head. "Ryuk was right." He sighed. "Humans are interesting."
