The fear crept up Dark's spine the moment she opened the front door. Kuta, who was now floating above the wet ground turned around to face her. "Are you coming?"

"But what if someone attacks me again?" She asked the shinigami. This fear was now sketched in her mind. She couldn't just ignore the feeling.

"You have the Death Note," Kuta reminded her. "Just write their name down and they'll die."

"But what if I don't know their name?"

"You can use my eyes."

Dark looked at Kuta in surprise as his eyes changed from a golden yellow to a crimson red. "Your eyes…?"

"One look at someone with these eyes and you'll be able to see their name and their lifespan."

She gasped. "That's amazing!"

"Yeah and I'll give them to you," Kuta informed her, hoping that the girl would fall into his trap.

"Wait, there's gotta be a price to this," she replied instantly.

"Yeah, she's a smart one," Kuta thought, giving a sigh. "It will cost you half of your lifespan."

"I knew it," Dark commented. "I'll take a rain check for now. I'll trade with you when I'm in trouble if the time comes."

With that, Dark grabbed an umbrella and stepped out the door. She opened it up after she locked the door behind her and followed Kuta as he lead her to Kira's location.

Kuta lead Dark on a wild goose chase. They wandered to the other side of the city and passed traffic, shops and a lot of homes.

Dark looked around to see that Kuta was leading her into a cemetery. "Why are we here?"

The shinigami didn't reply. All he did was laugh.

"He's tricking me isn't he?" She thought to herself. Her newly surfaced paranoia was starting to settle in. She clutched onto her umbrella and Death Note tightly as they walked amongst the graves. "But why would he take me to a cemetery?"

"I told you what we're doing," Kuta told her. "Just trust me."

She nodded but continued to think. Maybe he wanted to steal her soul in a creepy place like this. It was nearly midnight and walking around the cemetery brought chills up her spine. She gave a gasp as she realised what he was doing.

"Here we are," Kuta said as he floated above something.

Dark gasped. She had a last minute feeling that this was what had happened. Her eyes were now focused upon a tombstone. "Is this Kira?" She asked.

"Yeah this was him," Kuta replied.

Dark began to read the tombstone. "Light Yagami… That's an unusual name."

The shinigami began to laugh. "Yours is too, you know. It's the opposite of his."

She nodded. This was very uncanny. Light and Dark. This was probably a coincidence.

"I think you'll find the dates more interesting," the shinigami chuckled. "I have a funny feeling it'll scare the life out of you."

Dark began to become slightly nervous as she continued to read the tombstone. His birth date was normal to her. "It's just…"

As she continued reading, both the umbrella and the Death Note fell from her hands to the ground. She backed away slowly from the site and held her hand over her mouth. She was in absolute shock.

"Surprising isn't it," Kuta chimed before he let out an abrupt laugh.

"Impossible!" Dark said as she shook her head. "But how?"

"Coincidence?"

Dark shook her head again and pointed to the tombstone. "H-His death date… January t-the twenty eighth of two thousand and ten… He died on the day I was born!"

"It's as if you were born to take his place," Kuta said, trying to manipulate the girl. "He was eighteen when he found the Death Note."

"The same age as I am now," she mumbled.

This was all a big shock for her. First the opposite names, Light and Dark. Then him dying on the date she was born and finally, they were the same age when they first received the Death Note. Was this all some kind of sick joke or was it something more than that? Dark picked up the Death Note and flicked through its pages. Numerous names were written throughout it in many different languages. The last one was the name of the boy who tried to kill her. It was impossible to believe but somehow everything made sense. Was she the one destined to continue Kira's, Light's, judgements?

Many thoughts were running through her mind. First was that if Light were alive, he'd be forty-one. He must've been killed due to the Death Note. There were countless things that she needed to find out before she wrote down a single name. Other than that, what if this was some kind of sick trick? Maybe the boy who tried to kill her was in on this. Perhaps he wanted to scare her silly for rejecting him. No, this was too thought out to be a plan. But what if the Death Note didn't kill others? Plus she'd be a criminal herself if she used this book to kill someone. Even if they were criminals, she'd be just as bad if she killed them. The police would be all over her too and it would be unbelievably hard to keep a low profile ad would require a lot of planning in advance.

"I could just hand it into the authorities," she thought, looking back to the headstone. "Then again, this is too ironic. If my name was something else and my birth date was different it would be another story."

"Before I use this Death Note," Dark started. "You have to tell me every single secret about it."

"Why should I?" Kuta abruptly replied. "If you don't want it, you can just gust give up your ownership of the Death Note to me and all your memories of it will be erased."

Dark thought of Mesba and how he died just to save her life. She didn't want to forget about that anytime soon. "I think that I'll do some deeper research on the matter."

"You're such a smart girl," Kuta complimented. "You'll do Light proud if you did this."

She clicked. "You just want to see me screw up don't you?"

Kuta let out a laugh. "You got me. I just want to see what you'll do, what actions you'll take. You're considering so many things in advance so I think you'll make this exciting."

She nodded. "I'm more than a perky girl you know. I try to fly under the radar with everything I do."

Kuta gave the girl a grin. "So what now? I showed you Kira so what are you planning?"

"I think I need something," she told the shinigami.

"Like what?"

Dark grinned. "Chocolate maybe?"

Kuta had heard once about this mysterious thing called chocolate. Shidoh, another shinigami, had told him about a young man who gave him some once. Apparently it was very delicious. His sudden thoughts had trailed off into this curiosity about this mysterious food. It couldn't possibly taste better than shinigami apples.

"I'll let you know if I decide to carry on your judgements," Dark told the grave before she picked up her umbrella and headed off.

As she walked out of the cemetery towards home, she turned to the shinigami. "Can anyone else see you?"

"Only if they touch that Death Note," he told her.

She gave a nod. "Thanks. Now I know not to talk to you in public."

As Dark walked back towards home, she stopped by a convenience store. Kuta was constantly talking about chocolate the whole way and buying some was probably the only way to shut him up. Luckily these things were open twenty four seven.

"Can I have it now?" Kuta asked.

"No," Dark replied. "It'll look weird if someone saw a floating chocolate bar. Besides, how do you know about chocolate? Have you eaten it before?"

"No but I was told by someone," he replied as he floated alongside the girl. "I've never been to the human world before now."

"Hey, does every Death Note have a shinigami attached to it?" Dark asked.

"Yes."

This hit her curiosity. "Do shinigami's normally come down to the human world whenever they want?"

"Not normally. Only if a Death Note is here. We normally just watch from the shinigami realm."

"Okay, so was the shinigami that told you about chocolate Light's shinigami?"

"What weird questions," Kuta thought. "I wonder if this has a point to it."

"So...?" she asked.

"You mean Shidoh? No!" Kuta replied. "Shidoh just came here to get his Death Note."

Dark became fascinated. "So are you saying Death Note's can just fall from the sky?"

"If a shinigami decides he wants to drop one into your realm then yeah," he told her. "But a shinigami can't get two Death Notes very easily."

After all the questions, Dark was now at her doorstep. Kuta was rather excited as now he could finally try chocolate.

Once inside, Dark took off her shoes and wandered into the dining room. She sat down at the table and tore off the top of the wrapper before handing it to Kuta. "Here you go."

The shinigami took the chocolate bar and put it up to his mouth. He looked a little cautious but took a nibble. Before he knew it, he was munching at the chocolate bar. "Chocolate, it's so delicious!" Kuta said in amazement as he began scoffing down the sweet snack.

Dark unwrapped her chocolate bar and bit off a large chunk. She began to think. "Maybe I could persuade this shinigami to tell me all of his secrets with chocolate." She took another bite. "It's lucky that chocolate is so addictive."
