Death Note: The Life Note
Prologue
The funeral parlor was full. People came from all corners of the world to stare in awe at the eighteen year old prodigy. Of course, they didn't know how he died, or why he did. Most of them were completely oblivious to the fact that a fifteen year old boy had orchestrated the entire operation.
This wasn't entirely fair to him. After all, he had been the successor to the late L. He was dangerously intelligent, and practically had the world in his palm. In an instant, if Near died, the crime rate would spike, that was guaranteed.
Off in a corner, a blonde girl stood. She had her eyes cast downwards, trying not to attract too much attention. Attention was inevitable, though. The name Misa Amane was known worldwide. She was a model, after all. People were bound to stare at the ethereal beauty and wonder why she was at a funeral.
In truth, Misa didn't even know why she was here. The white notebook had been a rash decision, one that had been from a young girl with a broken heart. She still believed that Light Yagami had been in love with her, since he had agreed to go out with her. Her stomach wretched as her pen graced the paper. When Light was revived, he would worship her, love her. Or he could continue despise her. That made her pen stop. Misa took a deep breath, knowing that this would affect her life drastically.
She would have to take that risk. Her handwriting was shaking, but it would suffice. Light was going to live.
