KIRA
by INNER SELF
Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter or Death Note. If I did, there would be more blood and drama. Plus, I would have used parallelism and coupled Hermione with Draco. Also, to Mrs. Rowling, you missed your chance to remake Romeo & Juliet. Therefore, Nobuhiro Watsuki-san gets a cookie and you don't.
Flame Prevention Note: I know, I know, Light would have blackmailed Rem and got her to kill Hermione to save Misa. I did not go the extreme of story checks so as to be able to use Rem. I like Rem. I will use Rem. We will pretend Rem didn't give a damn about Misa and let her die… Just kidding… Rem at least pitied Misa. Find out the rest as you go along.
"Prologue"
"It appears that another twelve criminals from Japan died yesterday due to 'Kira's judgement,' but strangely enough a total of one hundred and eight able-bodied criminals world-wide have been reported to die of heart attacks. What do you think of this news, John?"
"Well, Jane, it appears to me…"
Sitting at the couch instead of the breakfast table, Hermione pours a bowl of cereal while her eyes are wisely glued to the tele.
"You say he is starting to take over the world's judgement? Well, maybe that is not the case…maybe…he's moving in next door to us! To you! Would that not be the worst day of your life, John?"
"Oh, bugger! I spilt the milk," Hermione mumbles but her mother overhears.
"You really should not take your eyes of what you are doing, dear," Hermione's mother calls from the kitchen.
Hermione retrieves a rag from the sink and starts cleaning the coffee table.
"Now, Jane! You should not scare people like that!"
"I know I will be safe. With all the supposed 'gas leaks' that Britain is experiencing, I think I would be safer with Lord Kira. Still, it is most likely that he is in America right now.'
"Mum, you were right. This serial killer has to be the freakiest man on the tele. How long did you say he's been running loose? Two years?"
"Well, only the Americans had been acknowledging Kira the first year of his infamy. Still, his terror is reaching us slowly. I fear he will be talked about all over the world soon. How will we carry on in such a society?"
Hermione whispers to herself that she has not the faintest clue.
"Well, in any case, your father and I have agreed that if the Kira supporters get too powerful, you should go into Wizarding Society."
"I cannot leave you. Besides, Voldemort is practically waiting for me there. I have nowhere to go." She smiles courageously for her mother. "Look, mum, we will be fine. The man is all the way in Japan; it has already been established. Plus, we know how well I can deal with lackeys."
A few moments later her father comes downstairs, ready for work. "I think I will have a little breakfast and then head off. Hermione, have fun watching news all day…But do not believe every word! I heard from one of my clients that there are pro-Kira stations bending the truths… I have not a clue which one though."
The mother returns to her room to grab her purse before leaving. "Water my garden, Hermione?"
"Yes mum."
The father follows after his wife. "Crack the Kira case!"
"Yes father," she says, beaming at his faith in her resourcefulness. She gets up to put her emptied bowl in the sink while retrieve an apple from the kitchen.
"…But what right does a single man have to rid the world of those he believes to be evil?"
"They are convicted criminals and ruthless villains. Do you not remember the man who held hostages in that school in Japan? What would we have done without Kira?! He saved twenty lives at the cost of one!"
"He has no right to do as he pleases with our world. He has no right to strike terror into our hearts and make us self-conscious of our every step or wary of our neighbors standing! He is leading a witch hunt!"
"He looks after us good people! In exchange for our freedom of will, he gives us the perfect world!"
"He is not God!"
'Well, this is getting spookily intriguing,' she muses as she takes a bite of the ironic fruit of justice.

Well, how is it starting out? Do you like it? Do you think it would be interesting to have a story like this after reading the seventh harry potter book? I hope plenty of death note/harry potter fans find this! I have the beginning and the end outlined! (Um, and the middle? Ahem…)
Also, if there is someone out there who has basically memorized all the controversies about Kira that are mentioned in the Death Note volumes, would you please be my friend? I am really trying to make this story sound smart...haha...I should say intellectual. I would really appreciate being able to discuss Death Note with someone.
Anyways, please read and review!
