Setsuna Rui was not the average teen. When you think of that, it usually means they're weird and quirky, but not in this case. She will show the people around her that words do hurt and that they can kill

"Rui, I'm very disappointed in you. I'd really like to see you try for once." The paper crinkled as she handed back to her. A big "F" sat on the paper. It's not like she wasn't trying, it was just that she didn't care. School didn't matter anyway. Her life depended on my "Alphabet Rule" She decided she was only going to live until the number of letters in the alphabet stop. (A=1 year)

"Only a couple years," she thought, "Until I'll be free from Earth."

The bell rang for the end of the day and Rui started home. It's not like there was a hurry. Her parents weren't gonna be home for a couple of days so why not take time to get home.

Then it happened. A small painful pain started in her head. Almost as if someone dropped something on a twenty story building. She picked up what looked like a small college notebook and read the cover. Death note

"The person who's name is written down, shall die", she read aloud. "Stupid, probably some dollar store prank."

"Hey, Emo!"

Her attention was caught. She didn't know who it was. Just the neighborhood jerks.

"Hey, we're talking to you!"

She turned away and started walking.

"Looks like we're gonna have to teach her a lesson."

The three boys ran up to Rui and started harassing her. Their methods were simple and harsh. Mostly just kicking and throwing her stuff into puddles. After five minutes she pushed them off.

"Go away!"

"Wah wah, little emo is gonna sob about us and then kill herself!"

Without thinking, Rui, picked up the notebook. She knew it didn't work, but hopefully it would scare them off.

"Now you're gonna write in your diary? Man you're so sad! You even labeled it Death Note!?"

Hurriedly, Rui wrote the boy's name down and cause of death as 'accident'. For forty seconds was complete silence, but it happened. A large 18-wheeler came rolling in and smashed the boy into the ground. His friends went over to him, but there was no use. He was dead.

Over the distant screaming, Rui looked at the note book with lust and grinned hopefully. "Maybe this wasn't a coincidence", she thought, "I'll try again later."
