Chapter 2

Yawning, Kagome shut the textbook that had been lying on her desk. Math was the worst. Name any type of mathematics and she would guarantee she sucked at it. Unfortunately for her, the only requirement she has for being able to continue going to the feudal is get into college. But not just any college, her mother had insisted on the prestigious To-Oh University. How in the world was she supposed to go there when she barely passed high school?

Deciding it was time for a break she clicked the television on. While in the feudal era, Kagome programmed her VCR to record her favorite TV show on ABCN. When she played the tape back however something entirely different was on. An attractive dark haired man sat at an executive desk. His name plate read Lind L. Tailor. He began rambling about some character named Kira.

In the end he stated that what this Kira person was doing is evil. Not more then a minute later did she see something fly quickly across the screen and the man collapsed. "What the…" Moving closer, she paused the tape and rewound it. Going frame by frame she watched as a very small black orb came out of no where and fly into the man's chest. Hitting play, she watched in awe as the man collapsed again and was announced that he died of a heart attack.

After the body was taken from the set, a giant letter L took over the screen. She nearly fell out of her chair when this L fellow dared for Kira to kill him. At the end of the tape she stopped it and hit eject. It would probably be best to hold on to the tape for now. The scariest part of the whole thing is that it was only broadcast in the area. So that meant that Kira was closer then most people understood.

Logging onto her computer, Kagome decided to look up some information on this Kira person. She gasped at all the sites that popped up. There appeared to be more sites worshipping him rather then condemning him. She didn't realize she had been in the feudal era so long. She browsed through most of the sites until she found one that had all possible deaths and incidents relating to Kira's interference. Most were the deaths of criminals. The only two interesting ones were one involving a bus hijacker claiming to have seen a monster right before going crazy and getting himself killed. The second involved the death of 12 FBI agents. Someone was obviously leaking police information.

Logging off the computer she stared at her textbooks. Tomorrow was the entrance exam for To-Oh University. She didn't have time for Kira right now. She needed to worry about her future.

Kagome quietly walked through the deserted hallways of the campus. She decided to get there early so that she could get in some last minute studying. She was registered as student 161 and was shocked when she entered the testing room and saw her neighbor 162 there already.

He failed to notice her come into the room and sit next to him. He sat with his feet on the chair staring at three little notes on the table in front of him. He had them lined up so that only the first word in each row could be seen forming a sentence that read "Lord, do you know gods of death love apples?"

Kagome gasped and mentally pictured Ryuk. "Shinigami…" she whispered.

The boy next to her suddenly turned and stared at her. He looked like he hadn't slept in days. "Do you believe in such things?" He asked in a seemingly interested voice.

Kagome debated her answer. Should she already have others thinking she was weird? But looking at this guy, it wouldn't make too much of a difference. "Yes I do." She answered confidently. She wasn't going to judge him, so hopefully he won't judge her.

"I see." Looking back at the notes he scooped them up and placed them in a bag next to him. He glanced back up at her. "What did you say your name was?"

"I didn't." Why was he so interested all of a sudden? "It's Kagome." He nodded and the two sat in silence as more students piled in to the room. She felt her eyebrow twitch in frustration. "Do I get to know your name?"

The hunched boy smirked at her. How irritating…. "My apologies. My name is Hideki Ryuga."

Kagome raised her eyebrow at him. She may literally be stuck in the past most of the time, but she knew this wasn't THE Hideki Ryuga. Perhaps it was an alias. After all, he was looking at evidence pertaining to what seemed like the Kira case. Was this L? Or just another detective?

Her thoughts were interrupted however, when the exam proctor began passing out all the materials and settle the class room down. When nine thirty rolled around, the proctor said that the students could begin the exam. She hadn't even finished reading the first chapter when the silence was interrupted.

"You there…Number 162." The proctor marched up to the row that Kagome and Ryuga sat at. "Sit properly." He demanded.

She glanced at Ryuga who now sat with his toes on the edge of the table. The weirdest part was that he was staring intensely at another boy only a few rows ahead. And it was like this everyday of the entrance exams. The final day was the worst for Kagome. It was the mathematics section. But she was fairly confident in her scores.

When they were dismissed on the final day, Kagome left at the same time as Ryuga and the boy he constantly stared at. Just as the boy was about to turn the corner, Kagome suddenly felt a familiar presence. She was shocked to see the shinigami Ryuk fly out of the sky and begin to follow him. "No way…" she said aloud.

"What's wrong Kagome?" Ryuga stood slightly hunched over near the street. He must be waiting for his ride.

"Ah, it's nothing." She smiled at him. "Say Ryuga…do you that guy's name?"

He responded with a small grin. It was the first time she had seen him give any sort of emotion. "Why do you wish to know?"

She continued to stare off in the direction the two went. "I believe I need to talk to him about a predicament a fear he might be in."

"I'm sure Light Yagami would love to hear from you." She nodded in appreciation at giving her his name and began walking down the street.

L watched in curiosity as Kagome disappeared into a crowd of people. When the street was relatively clear, he raised one hand slightly into the air and a dark car pulled up. He quickly got in and greeted his partner. "Watari, please look up any information you can on that girl Kagome."

"Of course sir." He responded, and they drove off towards the current headquarters to meet with the rest of the task force.
