I don't own death note.

Chapter 02
Auto Sounds

Misa was now exceptionally careful in sitting down in the presence of Ryuzaki. Flashing your panty and seen by a man who's probably a pervert is so not a thrilling feat. And the worst part was, it was all Misa's fault. If only curiosity hadn't got the better of her, if only she didn't do that daring stunt, none of this would have happened.
Still, it didn't stop her from shooting glares at the culprit. The culprit meanwhile didn't pay her any heed; he was too engrossed in his work. Just then Light came in and Misa squealed in delight.

"Light!"

There was no change in Light's expression as Misa hugged him.

"I missed you so much"
The young man sighed and muttered "Misa, I was only gone for an hour"
"I know, but each minute felt like an eternity!"

Light rolled his eyes at the dramatic confession. He then looked at Ryuzaki who was busy stuffing his mouth with slices of strawberry cake.
"Ryuzaki I have found something which may provide some link to Kira"
"Oh? Well let's hear it then Light Kun"

The men started to indulge themselves in discussion and Misa felt ignored. But being this happy go girl, she didn't let this get to her.
She sat down and picked up her magazine, resuming the article she was reading but soon got distracted with daydreams when she and her beloved will finally leave this dreaded place and make their dreams come true, together.

It was quiet for a while, until far away they heard noises from outside. It sounded as though someone or something had crashed in a car, triggering the alarm and now it was giving away the auto sounds.

Misa clutched the magazine tight in her hands, finding herself immersed in memories. When she was little, she and her sister would mimic the sounds of auto, which were released by the car belonging to their neighbor. It happened daily, early in the morning, when she and her sister would be having breakfast. It was a silly thing and their parents quite have a laugh at it, but it was one of the things she enjoyed doing with her sister.

The model bit her lip, contemplating. She was so tempted to do it. But what impression will Light have of her, if she did it? He would probably call her childish.
She can't afford that. She was a grown up, for God's sake! And it's time she acts responsible.

With that thought, her shoulders became slumped and once again began to concentrate on the article.

However it seems like someone didn't agree with her viewpoint because soon enough, Ryuzaki held his hand up, making Light pause his talking.
The brown haired man raised his eyebrow" Ryuzaki?"

What came next was unexpected.

The said man straightened himself a little, what his peculiar style of sitting would allow and began to speak. Only this time it didn't make sense;

"Whao, whao, whao, whao, whao…..
Whao, whao, whao, whao, whao…
Beep do, Beep do, Beep do….
Tat, tat, tat, tat, tat, tat, tat, tat, tat….
Taon, taon, taon, taon, taon….
Taon, taon, taon, taon…
Click, click…"

A stunned silence followed after that. The detective relaxed and turned his shadow rimmed eyes towards Light "You may now continue what you were saying Light Kun"

Light was tongue-tied. Did his colleague really do that?! But someone else was even more surprised than him.

Misa sat there in shock, trying to sink in what just happened, replaying the scene again and again in her mind, that Ryuzaki, one of the renowned world detectives (as they speak) imitated the sounds of auto. She knew that Ryuzaki was weird and was many things but taking out the sounds of automobile was not one of them.

"What was that Ryuzaki?" The eldest offspring of Yagami asked.
"I think it's obvious what I just did" Ryuzaki replied.
"You impersonated the alarm….." Light said slowly" of a car"
"I am well aware of it Light Kun. Nothing wrong is there in impersonating the sounds of automobile"
"No….but it's…"
"Childish?" Ryuzaki added, now helping himself to strawberry.
"Yeah it is"

Light was about say more, when Misa interrupted him;
"Oh lighten up Light darling, it's not like Ryuzaki committed a crime or anything"

She turned towards them and found both Light and Ryuzaki giving her looks of incredulity.

"He was just having fun…..and well you are never old for having fun" she then said" Besides it's not like Kira is going to kill people who are having just some fun…"

At this Ryuzaki let out cough which can be taken as snort. Even Light managed to crack a smile.

Eventually they got back to their work.

Turning the pages, Misa mused that maybe she can make Ryuzaki her auto buddy. It seemed like that little act warmed her a bit towards the pale man. She had forgotten all about the grudge against him.

Ryuzaki was thinking something else;
'the probability of Light being Kira is same as ever…..but for Miss Amane…I can say that it might have deducted by 2%. Still that's not much. But then again, I might be wrong….'
