Mega uber ultra important! Please read! Author's note people! Ghfhkdajhfkj!

Okay guys, now that that spasm attack important message alert is over I can type. I do actually have some pretty important things to say, starting with:

- I wrote this when I was new to fanfiction, hence the title of this story. PLEASE, this is for you guys to laugh at, but don't judge my work on this alone, kay? Okay. Read my other works.

- Do you guys think Ruth is a Mary-Sue? Wait until you reach the end to answer this one.

- I'm thinking of rewriting this. Should I? Would you all read it?

- My writing has improved immensely, and I have actually written some pretty good stuff. However, it's nothing without all of your opinions so please do leave a review. Also, the fics uploaded here weren't my best; The one I'm proudest of is a tie between 'A Worm in Light's Apple?' and 'Dangerous Affections'. Neither have had many views. :(

- VERY IMPORTANT! I deleted the first two chapters of this fanfiction when I deleted it off this site in the first place. Basically, what happened was that the idea that Ruth watches Death Note was tossed around and she was having a shower when Salk arrived.

- Read on guys! That's all from me!

It was massive, it's grotesque mouth pulled into a savage grin.

It's hair was pulled back in a sort of plait, it's eyes red and bulging. Bandaged torso and a fur pelt covering its waist, the being truly was disgusting. And then it spoke:

"Hello."

I stumbled to the corner of the shower, desperate to find safety. It just stood there waiting for me to stop. After the few minutes it took to realise the monster wouldn't hurt me, I spoke.

"What do you want? And most importantly, do you have to say it while I'm in the shower?"

The being stopped as if considering whether to talk or not, then said with a rough voice, "I am Salk. And I have a present for you. If you go into your laundry room, you will find it. Although, if you don't get to it first, then you can never have it. So be quick!"

I looked at it for a second before dashing off to the laundry and picking up a horribly wrapped present. I ripped off the wrapping paper and pick up the contents. It seemed to be a black book. Very thin in size, the book had a straight black cover. There was really nothing special about it. Opening it up, I met with a page saying:

{RULES}

{the human whose name is written in this note shall die.}

{this note will not take effect unless the writer has the persons face in their mind while writing his/her name. Therefore, people sharing the same name will not be affected.}

{if the cause of death is written in the next 40 seconds, it will happen. If the cause of death is not specified, the person will simply die of a heart attack.}

{after writing the cause of death details should be written in the next 6 minutes and 40 seconds.}

Stopping, I lifted up the book and looked at it. I couldn't believe I hadn't put two and two together.

It was a death note.

I jumped as sulk appeared behind me, turning around to glare at the shinigami.

"Don't scare me like that!" I snapped.

Salk bird-shrugged, rotating her shoulders so her shoulder blades stuck out at an odd angle. "I see no reason not to."

I continued glaring, then sighed and said, "Now what?"

The shinigami gave a surprisingly long answer.

"The death note does not take affect in this world. You could keep it as a token, or do the rational thing and come to the 'Death Note World' as you humans would call it. I understand that in this world, many people know of the death note and its uses, so you shouldn't have too hard of a time understanding. You may do as you like with this death note. After all, I can no longer call it mine."

I took a breath. "So... The death note is mine then? And I can go to the Death Note world? You know, with L and Light and everything?"

I thought back to my 'unrealistic goals'. Now, finally, they were within my grasp.

I could save L, maybe even light. I could even give a piece of my mind to Near. Such an L wanna-be.

I smiled. "I'll go."

If possible, Salk's grin got wider.
