This chapter is a bit lame, I'll admit it. But every story has that really boring chapter that is actually mandatory to the plot. This is mine. I'm surprised it came so early. I'll try to add a bit more fun/adventure/whatever makes a chapter good soon; but till then, you're stuck with these chappies :P

Oh, one of the characters might seem OOC (Out of character). Tell me what you think? I wasn't too sure on it…


"Don't touch it!" Krissia yelled as Mika reached over to the Death Note. "Remember what Ryuk said to Light when he first appeared?"

Mika paled and retracted her arm. "The first human to touch the Death Note when it comes to the human world shall die; the Shimigami will write that person name in their Death Note!"

"What will we do?" Krissia asked, looking at the Death Note. She took a moment to think, a deep breath and said. "We have to do this seriously; this isn't some fan fiction where everything works out. So I'll do it. I'll touch it first."

Mika slapped her 'Soul Twin' 's hand away and took off her sweater, using it like an oven mitt to pick up the notebook. "Don't be silly Kriss, no one will touch it."

"There shall be no Kira! This is wonderful!"

"Who's Kira?" Asked a new voice; causing both girls to spin around with Mika clutching the Death Note protectively.

"Kon'nichiwa!" They said with a slight bow to the approaching figure in fluent Japanese, something learned from their Japanese father. Well, Mika's father; but it had been eight years since the adoption, so Krissia called him dad too.

"Kon'nichiwa wa misu."[1] He said, bowing. "But I speak English too; and that was the language you were just using."

Krissia almost idiotically blurted out loud like a fan girl (even though she hated him for being Kira) "We know Light!" and instead said "Oh! And you are?"

"Light Yagami."

"Mi-saki!" Mika said, remembering half way through her name not to reveal it.

"Kasumi." Krissia said, picking up on Mika's train of thought. If Light did become Kira, he can't kill them without learning their real names. Not that they would ever give him the Death Note; but just in case.

"It is a pleasure to meet you two. But you're accents are strange, are you not from around here?"

"We're from Canada!" Mika announced proudly before Krissia could shush her. "We just moved here." Mika continued, although Krissia wished she hadn't said anything; she had not yet told her that Light saw them come from the sky. Struck by a sudden idea, she began dusting off her shirt.

"We must be covered with scrapes! Do I have any leaves in my hair? We were trying to get a nice view; Misaki just got a new sketch pad and wanted to draw something other than buildings." She sighed. "Did I really have to climb that tree with you?"

"It was for safety! If I fell, you would catch me before I hit the ground!" Mika said, even though she didn't have much of an idea why they were talking about sketching and trees.

"And if I fell?"

"You'd have a sore ass!" Both sisters laughed, but Krissia observed Light carefully; observing to see if the suspicion in his eyes would dim.

He smiled. "Can I see your sketches?"

"When Kasumi said my sketchbook was new, she meant brand new. I haven't a single sketch in it yet!" Mika lied with a laugh.

"Oh well, I'd love to see them sometime." He said in an innocent voice, but Krissia could almost see the gears whirling in his brain. If she had not watched Death Note, she would assume he meant it; perhaps in a flirty way. But the suspicion had never dimmed; Light Yagami saw them and the Death Note fall from the sky. And he wanted to know how.

"Sure!" Mika chanted, not thinking about her words for she was caught in a fan girl moment. Light was one of her favorite characters, but, like Krissia; that was only until he became a psycho murderer and had L killed.

"Do you live around here?"

"No, but we could always meet up here." Mika said, giving her older sister the urge to slap facepalm.

"That'd be cool; I could show you around, considering you're new."

"Thanks." Both girls chimed, causing Light to laugh.

"Do you mind if I ask a question?"

"You just did, but you can ask another one." Mika answers, making all three chuckle.

"Why are the words 'Death Note' written on your sketch pad?"

The two girls paled.

"And why do you hold it with your sweater?"

They started searching for an excuse, their eyes flickering to each other nervously.

"I got it from my cousin, but she's into all that Goth stuff. She probably picked it up at some Goth store." Mika said, finally coming up with an excuse. "I wrapped it in my sweater to protect it when we climbed the tree."

"Oh, that's a good idea." He said, and looked at his watch. "Well it's been a pleasure, but I must go."

"Sayonara Yagami-san."[2]

"Sayonara Misaki-chan, Kasumi-chan. [3] Perhaps you could stop by and show me your sketches one day." Light did a slight bow and left. The minute he was out of sight, Krissia whirled on her younger sister.

"Mika!" She yelled. "Now we have to come back."

"That's not that bad."

"He wants to investigate us. He saw us fall from the sky!"

Mika paled and cursed herself under her breath. So that's why Krissia started ranting about trees and sketches. "So, where we going to go? And what are we going to do with this?" She asked, dangling the notebook.

"We'll go find Kaiya and Riku. And we'll keep that safe."

The two girls began wandering aimlessly, looking at every face in the crowd for their older sister and younger brother. Hours later, it began to rain. Tired and exasperated, Krissia sat down on a bench. "It's hopeless!" She moaned. "How are we going to find them? We don't even know where they are! What if they didn't land in Japan? They could be in New Zealand, or maybe Canada; it's were we came from..." She began crying; grateful that the rain covered that fact.

"It's okay." Mika crooned, holding her sister in her arms; who laid her head on Mika's. The two sisters sat there, crying silently at their very slim hope of ever seeing their family again.

"Are you okay?" Asked a voice; startling both girls from their wallowing. They looked up at the speaker and saw a man smiling sadly at them. And for once, it was Krissia who broke down and revealed unnecessary facts. "We have nowhere to go! It's raining! And we can't find our brother and sister!"

"If you want, you could stay at my place."

Krissia lifted her red-rimmed eyes at the man's sincere face and abruptly got up and hugged him. "Oh thank you! We would love that! Thank you Matsuda-san."

Matsuda smiled; not realizing that he never told the girl his name; and pulled the girls under the shelter of his umbrella. Then the trio began walking to his home.


A.N So, are you liking? I know Matsuda-san might seem a bit OOC to you guys, but I figured he would be the type of person to do this sort of thing. He always was passionate to help others…

[1] Hello Misses.

[2] An honorific for addressing a male. Also, it is more polite to use their last name; ever notice that's why Touta Matsuda is Matsuda and the others are almost all called by their last names?

[3] An honorific for addressing a woman.
