Chapter 1
I walk around the school grounds. It's lonely having no friends. I try to keep out the way of everyone- that way I can't be beaten or laughed at. My brown frizzy hair blows in my face in the wind. It's November, about all the leaves have fallen off the trees. My feet crunch on the ground as I walk holding my books to my chest. If I knew someone I could show this to… I'm too scared to take it to the police but I don't know if they have this information on Kira. And I can't bother him I mean he's not involved in the Kira case. I'd send it in but I want to hand this over in person. This is what I do in my spare time, study Kira. I want to thank Kira for what he did to the man who beat my brother and raped my sister but he's killing criminals who don't deserve to die. He needs to be stopped.
School ends and I leave. I put my books in my bag and leave quickly. I will take this to the police and nothing will stop me. They need to know what I know. I should hurry- I don't want to be caught by the bullies. I start to run down the street. I must hurry! I run faster down along the pavement.
"Hey, where you goin' lil' girl," oh no. Five boys from my school who bully me step in front of me. Looks like I wasn't fast enough.
"Please leave me alone," I say.
"Or what?" I'm at a loss of what to do.
"Please just let me go," I try to push past but they push me over. I hit the ground with a thud and I cry out.
"What makes you think we'll let you go?" He kicks me in the back and I fall on my side.
"What ya gonna do now nerd?" they all join in and start to hit and kick me.
"Please, STOP!" I yell as I feel warm blood run down my back. One of them kicks me so hard in my chest I can barley breath. Another kicks me in the head so hard I think I'm going to pass out.
"Leave her alone." I hear someone say. I can't hear what follows but I think he's holding a police badge. The boys run and the young man walks up to me.
"Are you alright?" he asks.
"I… I'm used to this sort of thing. T-thank you," he holds out a hand to me and I take it. I just barley stand.
"Are you a police officer?" I ask.
"Yes, I am," he says.
"Perfect. I was just heading to the police station. I'm Yoshida Amaya. I have information on the Kira case and would like to present it if it's alright," I say taking out my note books.
"Okay," he says and I hand them to him. I stumble back to lean on the wall.
"Are you alright Miss Yoshida?" he asks.
"I think so and please call me Amaya." I say faking a smile.
He flicks through my books.
"You've got a lot of information," he says.
"Please take tem with you. I'm glad I could help for once," I try to keep smiling.
"Thank you. I'll walk you home, it's dangerous to go home alone." He says closing the book.
"I'm fine Sir- I've walked home in worse states. I hope to see you again." I start to walk away and I the collapse. Why is the world blurred?
"Amaya!" the young man runs over to me.
"Huh…? Oh… sorry," I say as I lay on the ground.
"I'll take you home," he puts my arm around his shoulders and helps me up.
"I must be a bother. And no, please. I don't want to go back yet. Only my youngest sister and cousin are there and if he sees me like this… please don't make me go home," I plea "besides, I wasn't really going back there."
"Okay, you can come with me. We could use your help on the case," he says.
"Thank you. By the way, I never got your name," I say as we start to walk.
"You can call me Matsuda," he says.
"Okay Matsuda,"
After a while we reach a building and we go inside. Matsuda pulls a chair out from under a desk for me.
"Thanks," I say.
"Your shirt is stained," he says looking at me.
"Second this week," I say.
"It's only Tuesday," he looks at me pitifully.
"Don't worry, I'm used to it," I fake smile at him. He sits down next to me and puts my notebooks on the desk.
"How long has this gone on for?" he asks me looking concerned.
"Years. But as my cousin says 'it's your own fault for not standing up for yourself.' One reason I don't want to go home."
Then I hear people walk over to us.
"Matsuda, who is this?" one of them asks.
"I'm Yoshida Amaya, I have information on the Kira case in those three note books," I nod my head towards the books on the desk not turning around.
"Amaya could help us out a lot I think. She should work with us." Matsuda says enthusiastically.
"Only if you want my help. I am only fifteen- wait, sixteen now. It's the thirteenth day right?" Matsuda nods.
"Yeah, I'm sixteen today then,"
"And why is Amaya's shirt stained with blood?" someone else asks. It feels as though they're asking Matsuda and pretending I can't hear.
"I was beat up. No biggy, it happens usually everyday," I force a smile.
Someone picks up the note books and starts to flick through them. I then hear my phone ring.
"Yes?" I say.
"Amaya where the hell are you?!" a voice yells.
"Seiji-san… I'm sorry," it's my cousin.
"Don't tell me. You're either gathering information on Kira or you've been beat up again." he snaps.
"Both… in a way…" I say. Everyone's silent. Can they hear him yelling?
"Well get home. You have chores."
"Okay but Seiji-san, can I stay out for a bit? It is a special day." I say. I'd even forgotten till a minuet ago.
"Well what day is it?" he sounds impatient.
"My birthday," I say.
"Well then I guess you can stay out." He hangs up.
I can feel everyone's stare.
"It was my cousin. It's fine though. Once he knew it was my birthday he said I didn't have to go home," I put my phone away.
"We heard," someone says.
"I understand why you didn't want to go home," says Matsuda.
"Oh no, its fine. He's right, I'm weak and the weak get picked on. My elder sister and brother are really strong, in so many ways. Ever since they became that way they weren't messed with again." Matsuda lightly puts a hand on my shoulder to comfort me. I put my hand on his hand.
"Thanks," I say.
"Yoshida Amaya, I've heard your name before," someone says behind me as though he's thinking out loud.
"You probably wouldn't have but my sister Ankoku you may have heard of. She was raped several years ago and my brother Ryo was beaten as well. The same person beat me a few times. He was seventeen at the time. He was killed by Kira a month ago- that's the only thing I like about Kira. I think that Kira must be stopped that's the main reason why I'm here. I'd like to help out on the case if it's alright," my last comment is ignored by everyone accept Matsuda as someone turns round and says. "I know your name. You in the same school as me before I left for university," I recognise the voice.
"Yagami Raito, top of your class, perfect scores on your exam correct? Your sister was bragging about you- well not to me but she was practically yelling it," I say.
"That's right," he says.
"You are also a suspect in the Kira case and you're chained to someone else. I can here the chain." I turn to look at everyone behind me.
"Now, listen please. I want to help on the Kira case. Will you let me help? I need to know the answer now because I can't return here tomorrow to get an answer and it be no because my cousin would make me work twice as hard and I won't finish my homework," I say in a shy voice.
"Well, you do seem to have a lot of information but why do you want to help so badly? After all Kira killed the man who attacked you and your siblings," the one who's chained to Raito asks.
"Because he kills people who've let's say, only committed petty theft. They don't deserve to die. And if I help that will prove to everyone that there's more to me than a nerd who gets beaten up everyday. It'll show that I'm worth something like everyone else. It'll show that I can do something right. So, please let me help but I understand if you wouldn't want me helping,"
"I don't think these books contain a lot of information- needless to say we already knew most of this. But I don't think that all the information you have is in here, is that correct? You may be of use to us. Yes, you may help. But we each have quarters here and that will include you and I'd like you to stay here. That's not a problem right?" the same man as before asks. (A/N L thinks she's hiding something so he wants her to live there 24/7, well other than school obviously).
"That's fine. Just let me go home tonight so my family will know where I am. And if it's alright I'll return home in a few weeks to say hi to my dad. He works away from home and I rarely get to see him," I smile. The man nods.
I ask for their names then after the introductions we get to work. I start to write down everything else I know about Kira as Matsuda watches me. I finish writing and put my pen down.
"That's everything," I say.
"You gathered quite a lot of information Amaya," Matsuda looks at my note books.
"I just did what I could. I better be getting home now or Onee-sama and Onii-chan will worry- they should be home by now," I say picking up my bag.
"I'll take you back in case you collapse again or anything," I nod and we stand up.
"Thanks," I say.
We start to walk along the street towards my house. It's quite dark already. A cold wind blows and I shiver. Matsuda wraps his jacket around my shoulders.
"Oh, thank you," I say gratefully.
"It's fine. Do you have a coat?" he asks.
"It was wrecked yesterday by the same five who beat me up today. I'll get a new one soon," I reply.
"I see." He looks at me, his eyes full of sympathy.
"It's alright though, don't worry." I smile.
"Must be tough for you," he looks me in the eye.
"Yeah, but I'm used to it. It's something you get used to quickly. Pain for me, it's normal. I can't remember what it felt like to be pain free," I look into the distance.
"Maybe you'll be pain free again one day," Matsuda puts a hand on my shoulder.
"Maybe one day,"
We arrive at my house.
"This is my place. Want to come in? Maybe you can help me tell my family about me helping with the Kira case," I ask. He nods. We walk inside and all the lights are off. I flick on the light switch.
"Hello? I'm home," I call out. We walk into the living room. Pitch black. I turn on the light.
"SURPRISE!" My sisters, brother, mum, (completely surprising) cousin and my elder sisters boyfriend jump out.
"Oh… My… Gods…" I'm shocked.
"Hey, happy birthday sis!" says Ankoku.
"And she bought home a boy. About time!" Ryo ruffles my hair. I blush and glance at Matsuda who's also blushing.
"T-that's not it. I have some news," I announce.
"Tell us over dinner. Right now, go clean up." Seiji calls in a soft tone of voice.
"Yeah, I'll be back in a minute. Everyone, this is Matsuda, be nice to him," I belt upstairs.
I come back down in jeans and a dark green long off-shoulder sleeve shirt. Everyone's talking, it seems like they've all been introduced.
"I'm back." I sit down with the others.
"So, what was it that you wanted to tell us?" Ankoku asks.
"I'm going to be working on the Kira case but that means I won't be staying here anymore. I'll be able to come home to see dad but I won't be back for a while," I explain.
"Well, it's about time you put you skills to use." Says Yuu, Ankoku's boyfriend.
"So, when do you start work?" asks Ryo.
"Ryuzaki wants her to star work tomorrow," Matsuda says.
"I'll be packing what I need tonight," I say.
"That better include your presents," mum smiles at me. I nod, not smiling back.
After dinner I open my presents. I got a new coat, the microscope I wanted, a new note book, some manga books and a new school bag.
"Thank you everyone!" I say cheerfully.
"There's still one more surprise." Mum says.
"Daddy," Miki, my little sister says. I turn around and dad's standing there.
"Dad!" I fling my arms around him.
"Hey kiddo. Happy sixteenth," dad says letting go.
"Thanks dad," I smile a real smile up at him.
"You're all grown up now eh? Sixteen today. Seems like just yesterday I was changing your dippers," he ruffles my hair.
"Dad, please," I look down embarrassed. He laughs.
"Now, close your eyes." I do as he says. Something cool touches my neck. It's a necklace. I lift my hair out of the way. I open my eyes and look at the necklace. It's an angel. An angel made of mother of pearl on a silver chain.
"Thanks dad," I say.
"There's one more surprise. Cover your eyes and follow my voice," I do as he says. I hear footsteps behind me. What's going on? We walk upstairs and into my room.
"Open your eyes," I open my eyes. No. Way.
"Holy crackers. No way…" in my room is the acoustic guitar I wanted. Its sparkly red and perfect for me. There's also a music box on my desk.
"The song you use to sing to Miki, well, the tune plays when you wind this up," dad taps the music box.
"I think I've died and gone to heaven," I say.
"Oh Matsuda, here. I took your jacket up here by mistake," I hand him his jacket.
"Thanks for letting me borrow it," I smile.
"Its no problem Amaya," he says.
"So, is this your boyfriend?" Dad asks to embarrass me I bet knowing him.
"No. Dad this is Matsuda, I'm going to be working on the Kira case and he's an officer working on the case too. He also stopped the boys from my school when they were beating me up. Matsuda this is my dad Hayate." I say.
"Nice to meet you Matsuda." My dad says to him with a warm smile.
"Nice to meet you too Mr Yoshida," Matsuda says bowing.
"Please call me Hayate," dad says.
"Sis, play guitaw for me!" Miki says.
"Later Miki-chan," I say petting her head.
"Why don't ya take it downstairs and play your new guitar to try it out?" Ryo suggests.
"Well, I don't know…" I get nervous play for people other than Miki; she doesn't care for slip ups.
"Don't be shy, c'mon. Matsuda will be impressed," Ankoku whispers into my ear and nudges me.
"Hey! And okay then. If you guys want me too," I pick up my guitar and walk down stairs with everyone.
That's the end of the first chapter please bare with it guys! There'll be more of the other characters but I wanna build up the romance. Please R&R! :)
