Ch.2: Nears notice

Near was playing with his little dolls, bored. After Light died, no more people died suspiciously. He yawned and ruffled his white hair when he heard his new partner, Mikami, come in.

"Near! Something has happened in America!" Near's head jerked up, nervous. There couldn't be a new Kira among us...could there? The white-haired boy grabbed the file and looked through it in shock. It was talking about how some guy in America had a heart attack while he held a child hostage.

Near sighed, worried. He knew that there was a manga and anime out about Light's death, but, hopefully, no one knew it was true.

"What are we going to do?" Mikami asked, twirling his tie around his fingers.

"Well, for now all we could do is wait, and if it happens again, then we'll contact the world's police."

"B-but, Near! What if it really IS another kira?"

"Then we need to hope that we can catch whoever it is." Near sat back down, getting a marker out and writing Kira back on the old squishy doll. He washed it off, thinking it was over. But what Mikami and Near both know is...

Kira's back

~~~~Line break~~~~~

Florence sat there, finishing her own homework as her sister plopped back down on the television and continued watching Spongebob, and laughing when Patrick did something stupid. Florence just looked at her sister, smirked, and shook her head. She was so innocent.

When her mother came in, Florence gave the tired mother her progress report.

"Wow! All A's and B's AGAIN! That's my smart girl!" She cheered, hugging Florence until she crushed her ribs.

"Mom..." She groaned, wiggling out.

"Now see, Lacey? Maybe your big sister should tutor you, she's just so smart!"

Lacey just groaned, "I am doing fine in school, Mom."

"oh, yah? Your teacher called me again to say you were dozing off during class...AGAIN!" The mother folded her arms on her chest, clearly not amused. Florence just ignored the bickering and walked upstairs, going to her room.

"Don't worry, mom. She'll work hard after she get scared of KIRA." She whispered, chuckling. She sat down and opened the death note, getting her pen out, she wrote down 'Nate River', of course, thinking of Nears face. That is the first guy to go, or else he would go after her.

"Should I kill Mikami too?" Florence asked herself, thinking, "He'll just get in my way..." She sighed, writing his name down too.

~~~~Line break~~~~~

Near and Mikami were talking about what they would do when they realized something.

"Wait, Near. Wouldn't someone who found the Death note and took it KNOW about the anime? Because anyone else would just leave it, thinking it was a freakish notebook for anime fans." Mikami asked, gulping.

When Near was about to answer, he felt a pain in his chest and fell face-first on the tile floor. Mikami kneeled down and looked at him.

"Near? NEAR? -?!" Mikami gasped, falling by Nate, they both were dead.

~~~~A few days later~~~~~~

Florence was typing on her laptop at school and noticed a news report on an internet site that caught her attention.

French Detective and Japanese policeman killed by heart attack

A detective by the nickname, Near. And his partner, Mikami was sitting in their office when they both suddenly collapsed, dead. Most people know them from a anime/manga called Death Note. This news shocked some of those people, but some of them cheered, saying their savior, 'Kira' is back.

Real life Misa Amane talked to reporters about the happening. She said that she knew all along her lord would return. She and her friend said they had begged for it. Well, it looks like it came true.

Florence didn't care and started bursting out, laughing. Having people look at her crazy. She couldn't believe it happened. Her, getting the legendary Death Note! She calmed herself down and reminded herself about what happened to Light and told herself to not let that happen to her. She packed up and walked to her car as the bell rang, letting everyone out for Spring break. She sighed, feeling everyone run past her. She walked to her truck and got in, putting in the key and she drove off. She had to go to her part-time job at the theater.

During break, she walked outside, going to a coke machine and buying her a Pepsi. She sat down on the curb, drinking her coke and looking at the gray clouds start to form, she smiled. She loved bad weather. It brought character to the dull town she was living in, other than the haunted graveyard. She was about to finish her coke and throw it away but she noticed something flying...something huge.

She sat there, frozen, but then stood up, having a feeling of who it is. It flew down to her, showing her his face as he landed. It was Ryuk, she was glad no one was out in the cold right then.

Florence smirked, "Hey, Ryuk." She said, putting her palm on her hip.

"Oh, you heard of me?" Ryuk hyuked, acting like she complimented him.

"Yes. Can't you read?" She empathized her Death note shirt she was wearing.

"Yah, I read it. I was just playing. So I guess you know everything I'm supposed to tell you, right?"

"Yep. I know that after I use the Death note I can't go to heaven nor hell, I have to think of the person's face while I write it...blah blah blah."

"So I'm guessing you're going to do just what Light done?"

"Well, not exactly. I have a memory to fall back on so I won't turn out like Light, and I already killed Mikami and Near, so they won't get in my way."

"Ah, I see." Ryuk hyuked again before a employee came out of the theater.

"Come on, Florence, your break is up!"

"Oh! I'm coming!" Florence looked behind her before she walked in the place.

~~~~~~Ryuks POV~~~~~~

She IS very different from Light...and her life span is longer then Light's was. Maybe she will win...

I looked behind me to see the ghost of Light smiling down at Florence.

"What is it, Light?" I asked, tuning toward him.

"She seems promising, and she was right. I had became power-hungry. Well, let's hope she finishes my job." Light said before he walked away.

I smirked, knowing that this was going to be a VERY interesting time.
