Edit: Sorry for the multiple updates... I had to fix something.

Hello there! Here is next chapter! I hope you guys like it just as much as the last one. Thanks you all for your reviews, LMnear, JediMsterWithAPen, Donatellolover, and hopefully last but not least Hikari Yagami543 whom I want to thank for the suggestion about the name. I think it is a good one!

By the way, Happy New Year everyone!

Disclaimer: Sadly I have to inform you that I don't own the DN characters, though I like to state that I own dear little evil Naraku.

Enjoy!

A Notebook's curse.

Named as Evil

Named as Evil

Creperum, Abercum, Darkness, Malus, Dark... Demon.

These were all names he has been known by one time, in one way or another. Especially demon… yes 'demon' was indeed a very familiar one. It didn't surprise the spirit at all. It was what described him the best after all. He was a malicious spirit… a demon. Sure he was no animalistic monster like some religions with their ridiculous theories claimed demons to be, but in names of just a 'malicious spirit' he was it all. Maybe even more than that. He was evil and he knew it. He didn't care either. It was his nature, so he followed it.

He would destroy and kill and become as powerful as he had been before that day.

It was that rule that had gotten him so far. He had been a very powerful demon, one of the last left. All the others were already destroyed, their soul having been 'cleansed' by Angels or Gods. Bah, what a joke.

He didn't care for those other foolish demons. The malicious spirit's theology was closely linked to the theory of the 'fittest of the strongest'. The stronger ones defeat the weak, and they will either serve them or die. It was as simple as that. It was in his opinion the rule of the universe, the rule of existence. And he still existed.

But he had been weakened significantly from that time of being frozen by that damn notebook!

He would have to find back his power somehow, because there was no way in hell that he was planning on getting defeated any time soon. And he would never serve anyone either.

He wouldn't bow for anyone.

Ever.

He didn't have any pity with those defeated and 'cleansed' demons. It meant they had been too careless. They were no way as intelligent as he was. He had been the most intelligent of them after all. He had always kept in the shadows. Making sure nobody knew that someone was possessed before killing them all, and becoming more powerful. They had laughed at him, thinking he was a coward, but now they would know different. Those still existing knew different… Those who existed had known different.

Now to come to think about it, how many demons where still left in the Human Realm, the demon wondered. Hell he didn't even know how much time had passed. Time was passing slowly in the Notebook's small realm he noticed.

Too slowly for his liking. He was getting impatient. All his previous patience of resting had now dissapeared as if it had never existed at all.

More names resurfaced from his memory as he waited for someone to pick him up.

Naraku, Ahriman, Lucifer, Demogorgon, and many more names humans had given him at one point.

Naraku, that was a name that the spirit had always liked. It had a nice sound to it. 'Underworld' he thought it meant. It had been his favorite for a long time. He would go by that one for a while he decided. Now he had to do some research, to find out just how much time had passed, and more importantly, to find a good host.

There was too much depending on his situation now to make any plans. So many things were different and unknown now, which was a new experience. He had been in control for a long time before that day. He had been in charge. He had been powerful.

All had been alright until that day, when that stupid Old Geezer had to destroy all his plans for the world. His world.

Well, let his try to stop him now!

His rant was interrupted when he felt a new connection around him.

Someone had finally picked him up.

The first touch was all Naraku needed as he quickly established the connections between him and his next host. He was glad he had gotten at a good populated place like that. It wouldn't have done any good if he had ended up in some kind of deserted island, especially with the time passing so slowly. However the feeling of content was quickly transformed into absolute gleefulness.

This boy was perfect! Absolutely perfect!

Never in his whole existence had Naraku ever come across such a perfect host. His brain was unbelievable fast that even the spirit was momentary surprised that he actually seemed to be able to use his own brain to its own full capacity. This was exactly what the spirit needed, because his own intelligence was often limited by the use of the previous hosts' brain. Who had been, in other words, people ranging from having no more brains than an average four-year-old to the ordinary intelligent minds. However this mind exceeded every expectation, and he wasn't even completely full-grown yet!

So much potential this one had, and he had not even needed to search for him!

He felt the surprisingly good defenses of the teenager's mind attack him as he blew his way in. He had to admit they were very strong. He wouldn't be able to get to the teen without having him experience some side effects. He would have to take care of that later, the demon noted as he braced himself for another fierce push that tried to keep him back.

It didn't take much longer before Naraku had evaded nearly all of them. He made sure to keep most of them intact, as it wouldn't do for the teen to become too aware of his presence for now. Soon Naraku had passed all the defenses he ended up at the core of the teenagers mind. There in the middle of the bright and light room stood the form of a teenager, unmoving, as he stared unfocused out in front of him.

The boy didn't move, and didn't notice the other's presence either. Instead, he just continued to stand in the middle of the room. The room that was far to bright in the demon's opinion, and Naraku immediately made sure to search for the darkest spot in the teenager's mind and to attach himself to it.

Hmn… The teenager had a strong dislike for injustice it seemed. He could work with that, Naraku thought and his teeth were visible as he grinned darkly.

The demon quickly moved and then centered himself on the dark spot that had been created in the teens mind and connected himself to all the senses of the body. It had surprised the demon that the teenager didn't have some kind of screen in his mind, which had sometimes allowed the demon to watch what was going on around the host without him or her knowing. Without it however he had no idea of the outside world, which meant that he would have to take over the teenager now immediately for a while. The teen's defenses were now proving to be a little too good for the demon's tastes.

The teenagers mind was good centered, the demon noted as he continued his evaluation. It seemed to give him complete control. Well, time to change that for now, Naraku decided as he moved to take control of the unguarded teens mind.

The dark shadow shot towards the figure in the teenager's mind and he couldn't help but give another cry of glee as he noted the teen's appearance. Many times people had their actual appearance of themselves in their mind, which was done automatically as it was how they saw themselves, and since the teenagers mind being so well centered, the shadow guessed that this would be his real look too. He took a moment to take in the teenager's body in mirth.

From what spirit could judge, the kid was also very good-looking! The teens' appearance was above everything he could have hoped for! He was sure he would be able to use this to his advantage in the future.

He was now sure he never wanted to leave this host, Naraku decided as he approached the figure. Then he leaned over, spread his 'arms' and hugged the teenager's form from behind, resting his head on the teen's right shoulder, causing the dark substance from his shadow to spread out over the teen. The teen tensed and struggled for a moment against the dark force before it went slightly limp in his arms and his eyes glazed over.

On the outside of the body two bright eyes opened as the demon finally opened his eyes for the first time in centuries.

"Light!"

"Light-kun, wake up!"

"Light, can you hear me?"

Light groaned in his mind. People were calling out his name. Light recognized their voices from somewhere but he couldn't immediately place them. He couldn't think straight at the moment at all. That was unnerving. The fact that they were making so much noise didn't help much either. He wanted to answer to calm them down, so he could get in control of his mind again, but he found that he couldn't move just yet.

'Damn, my head feels like I have been run over by a truck.' The ace student thought as he let out silent groan. What had happened? Did this unbelievable big mean that he got run over anyway? He didn't remember much of it. All the memories of what happened before everything went black were kinda vague. He didn't seem to be able to grasp them. He was getting worried now. Another sting shot through his head as he reached for a memory, ceasing him in his action.

"Urgh."

"He is waking up! Light open up your eyes please!"

"Light-kun, are you alright?" More commotion followed. He heard girls whisper to each other, some guys yelling when he called someone to tell the news in the hallway. Great, now his head felt like it had been run over by a tank. Couldn't he just have a little moment of peace?

"Hush all of you. Let Yagami-san wake up peacefully. Now all of you brats go outside and go home. I will call his parents to pick him up so there is no need waiting for him." The voice of an older woman cut through all the other voices, which immediately quieted down. Groans of disappointment followed and there were some complaints but the owner of the voice must have shot them a glare because they weren't finished.

He finally matched the voice. It was the nurse, he remembered.

His mind finally was a bit back on track as he came to the conclusion that he must be in the nurse's room.

Great, there goes his perfect record.

Light stayed silent and unmoving as he heard the nurse order everyone out of the room with her no-nonsense tone. For once, Light couldn't help but feel grateful for her demanding attitude, as he heard the people leave silently, though many were grumbling. He mentally let out a slight sight of relief after the last person closed the door behind him or her.

A warm chuckle let him know that he didn't do it only mentally.

"Urgh... Kangofu-san?" His voice came out pretty pathetic. 'Great Light, there really goes your change of getting of the hook easily.' There was no way the nurse's instinct could be fooled now.

"Easy, Yagami-kun. You fell down pretty hard from what I heard from your friends. Wait a few minutes and try again." Light heard the familiar voice gently say. He might have protested any other time, but now he actually felt so bad that he decided to follow her advise.

As a few minutes went by he heard her shuffle around the large room. His head cleared a little over time and he finally opened his eyes. He squinted a couple of times to get used to the dim light and he was glad that the nurse had closed the curtains for him before. The nurse was at least He groaned a little as he moved to sit up, alerting said person and she immediately rushed over to him with a glass of water and a small white pill. It was probably an aspirin, he figured absently.

The school's nurse had been at our school for many years and had the reputation of making sure that all her 'patients' were taken care off till they were totally healthy. She was older woman in her fifties and had a nice warm and grandmotherly air around her. One shouldn't be completely fooled by her nice appearance though, because stories taught that she was not one to underestimate. Never once in her stay here had a student been able to slip away or fool her. Light figured he might have a change if he tried, but with the way he was currently feeling he actually wasn't feeling like it.

The nurse quickly and gently supported him as he moved to sit up. He was glad that she didn't force him to lie back down, as most people would.

"Easy son, easy. Here take this, it will help your headache." She said to him, making sure to speak softly. Light decided that he liked her insight. He took the glass, making sure to start slowly and get his shaking back under control when it wasn't that noticeable yet. Luckily he succeeded and when he swallowed the aspirin, he had found his composure back. It was as if nothing had happened. Perfect.

"How are you feeling Yagami-kun." The nurse asked him as she took the empty glass back.

"I'm feeling better. A little sleepy but further I feel fine. A slight headache too, but the aspirin should take care of that. Thank you ma'am." Light lied in a very convincing and charming manner and he was glad that she eventually nodded after staring suspiciously at him for a moment. She started prodding - or doing a basic check-up as she called it - the teenager a little bit, and Light had to keep himself from flinching a couple of times to keep up his act.

"Now Yagami-kun, can you please tell me what happened." She asked after she seemed content enough with the results. Light smiled politely at her, for once not needing that much force behind his fake smile, and made sure it looked a little sheepishly.

"I'm honestly not sure. I guess I must have fainted. I admit I have been studying pretty hard for the last couple of weeks. I might have made it a little too late a couple of times." He said, and for once he was not completely lying. He had indeed been studying the last couple of weeks, but he did get enough sleep for him in his opinion.

He also didn't have any stress from the studying so that did not explain the fact of him fainting either. As the perfect student he was, he did not faint from simply missing just a few hours of sleep. There had been something else that caused it. He frowned as suddenly and image of an object flashed in front of his eyes.

'A dark brown rectangular?' He pondered as the image slowly became sharper. It did seem very familiar. What was it? Light concentrated harder on the image, trying to figure out what made him recognize it when he felt like he had never seen it before. The suddenly, without a warning, the image was gone. Just gone, as if someone had just ripped it out of his grasp. A slight hiss escaped his lips when a sharp shot of pain took its place.

'What is happening to me?' He thought unnerved. Another déjà vu hit him, but like before he didn't seem to be able to grasp the memory. It was frustrating.

Light saw a frown appear on the nurse's face in the corner of his eyes and he knew that he had not been silent enough with his small hiss. The nurse scowled him for a moment before informing him that she was going to call his mother and that he even dared to move as much as one meter away from the bed then– she left the silent treat hanging at that point as she closed the door behind her.

In his mind, Light silently applauded her. It was a very good and intimidating technique, but it wouldn't work on him had he felt like slipping away. Which wasn't the case however. It wouldn't do for him to make the crack in his perfect image even larger than it already was, would it?

So with that thought he stayed on the bed, holding his head in his hands, hoping that he would be spared from his parent's over-protective attitude. The last time he just had as much as simple fever they nearly wanted to let him stay at home for a week. He didn't dare to think how long they would keep him locked up now.

That however wouldn't compare to the ruckus that would likely erupt when he came back to school. By now the whole school would know that he had 'fainted'. With his luck, some great rumors were now being spread around. He hoped that he would be able to manipulate all these rumors to his advantage at that point. His changes with succeeding with all of them weren't that high however.

Great, absolutely perfect.

"That was close."

Naraku muttered, as he had been able to hide that certain memory from the boys 'archieve' just in time. It wouldn't do if he was about to find out about the book, or even more important what was written in it. The nurse might proclaim him ill or even take it herself, which meant that he would have to follow it to keep his powers.

And most important, away from this perfect host.

No way he was going to let that happen.

He would need this bright one if he wanted to get up to date with this world. From his earlier little 'trip' he realized just how much he was behind in had come to a shock at how different the Human Realm suddenly looked like. Where was all the wood? Where was the nature? What was the strange accent that he heard all around him? It was all so unbelievable to take it all in so fast.

But nothing had been as crazy as those shiny and loud monsters that he had nearly crossed paths with. What on earth were those? And now he thought back. What had been those shiny objects that all those people were keeping with them? He had been sure he could hear voices coming out of it.

He was sure people from his time would have immediately claimed it as witchcraft.

Where in the name of Sezinoka had he ended up?

Naraku shook himself out of his wandering thoughts, and quickly retreated back to his corner to rest just a little bit as he pondered about the upcoming actions he had to take. His little trip had told him enough. One, he needed more power and energy, because he hadn't been able to keep in control long enough. Two, he needed more information, which meant that he had some searching in the teen's mind to do. And three, he had to do all of this subtly and secretly. This teenager was bright, but that also increased the changes of being caught by the teenager himself.

With that he decided to search for the most important information about the host himself first. As he 'downloaded' the most basic information about the host he grinned when the host once again proved to be just perfect.

"Yagami Light, we are going to be spending with each other." He chuckled evilly.

"And then, soon, you will be mine."
