AN: Yay, second chapter of this! Read it if you want and review please. I might update again. Oh yeah, in response to i-love-my-L if I wanted to get away from my computer, go downstairs, get out of my apartment and walk ten minutes I would probably be able to see the Effel Tower as long as something wasn't covering it, like a cloud.
My P.O.V.:
I woke up siting on the ground and was leaning against a wall outside in he shade of some bushes. It was the afternoon. The hard concrete wasn't very comfortable and I was starting to become cold. I looked at myself and got up. Everything looked bigger and was animated for lack of a better word. It seemed I was outside of Light's school. I walked towards he entrance and looked at myself in the front door which was made of glass and was showing my reflexion. I inhaled sharply from shock.
I had... black hair. No not black, I realized, but blue. Really dark blue, like midnight blue. And my eyes were a vivid violet, framed with dark, lush eyelashes. I was wearing a dark purple T-shirt, blue jeans and black tennis shoes. But... I was also only about 1 meter tall! I look like I'm 5. NO! Why am I so... little... Maybe it has something to do with the Story Note... I looked at myself again. Wait, I'm actually cute. I pretended to smile and almost choked at the cuteness overload. Hey, this could actually be fun... I grinned, but it was a smile which wasn't meant for my innocent face. Maybe I can actually live with this. I won't have to have responsibilities, I am supposed to be stupid and I am CUTE! I can also mess with Light and L, the smartest guys ever. In other words, it's almost perfect!
I was pulled out of my thoughts by an upside down face smiling with a grin that could split the face of anyone.
"HI!~ I'm Cloud! I'm ya story god!~ Nice to meet t'cha. Who are ya?"
"Umm... I'm... Low?"
"Hi Low!~ Do ya have any questions or somethin'?"
"Um, why am I so young. I'm supposed to be 14 right?"
"Don't worry 'bout that. The Story Note doesn't work very well and sometimes... it makes mistakes~"
She started giggling. I ignored her.
"Does that mean I can't go back to normal?"
"Nah, you'll be like this here but when you're back home in your world you'll be like always."
I pondered all she said.
"How do I get back?"
"What a silly question. Some way ya got here. By sleeping."
I was about to ask another question when I noticed that she was far away looking at some red flowers. She started talking to herself. I took this as a chance to look at her better. She had crazy pink hair and light eyes. They seemed to be cyan. She was dressed in a light blue shirt, a pink skirt and red and white striped stockings but she didn't have any shoes on. I walked towards her. She still hadn't noticed me and was moaning something about not having any strawberries left. I moved closer still and yelled "BOO!" She started zooming around like a headless chicken.
"AHHH! Help me! It's gonna eat meh! Noooo!"
"Clown, there's nothing here that is going to hurt you. You can come down now."
She was on the highest branch of a tree and was quivering so hard I was amazed that no one noticed the tree was shaking without any wind.
"What did ya call meh?"
The tree was shaking, but not because Cloud was scared but because she was angry.
"Did I hear ya say clown?"
"Oh of course not, whatever possessed you to say that?"
I made myself look innocent.
"Hmph. I still don't believe you but I'll come down anyway 'cause I have to keep ya safe. It's my duty as a Story God. I can't let somethin' happen to ya, right?"
"What do you mean by 'something happen to me'?"
"Well ya know... stuff like gettin' hurt."
"Oh."
Just then the bell rang. There was lots of noise coming from the school and I knew that if I stayed to long I would be flattened by a stampede of student eager to get out. I walked back onto the grass near where I had been siting and saw a little black notebook falling. Shoot, it's probably the Death Note. I need to get it before Light does. I ran over to the notebook. Just as I was about to touch it a man ran at me and hit me in the face. Cloud stopped me from falling completely. I guess she's good for something. The guy grabbed to notebook and ran away, pushing students in his path over without a second thought. I, on the other hand, had a massive nosebleed and my head hurt.
Ryuk's P.O.V.:
Hehe, it's falling. I hope the one who gets it will be entertaining. Not annoying either. And will give me lots of red, juicy apples... Wait, it seems that child with get it. The child... doesn't have a name or time... and looks younger that 6. I can't let the child have it. Ryuk scribbled something in his Death Note. There. The Death Note will go to someone else. Problem solved. Now I just have to follow it. He floated away, chuckling.
Light's P.O.V.:
I came out of the building. I was bored, like usual, but wasn't showing it. The book that had fallen had intrigued me though. The title was... Death Note. It sounded oddly menacing. It was probably a stupid joke like those chain letters you see all the time. I turned to see if the book was still there. Instead I saw a young girl on the grass that seemed to be bleeding from her nose. Only a few people had noticed her and were asking her questions. I walked over to her and, aware of all the people watching, I asked her if she wanted to go to the infirmary.
She whispered something to herself then said calmly, "I'm sorry, I don't speak Japanese. And yes, I would appreciate going to the infirmary."
"How did you know that I asked you if you wanted to go to the infirmary then?" I answered in perfect English.
"Let me rephrase that, I can only understand a little bit. Please hurry, I'm still bleeding a lot."
I picked her up after giving her a tissue which she held under her nose to avoid bleeding on me. She was heavy. More than 2 times more than I had thought she would be. It was like she was made of solid aluminum. I wanted to put her down but my pride prevented me from doing that. I walked all the way to the infirmary. Luckily it wasn't far. The nurse left her to bleed over the sink while instructing her to pinch her nose. When the bleeding was controlled she sat on a chair near me. The nurse came back from one of her other patients and started asking her if she felt alright. I cut in saying that she didn't understand Japanese.
The nurse wasn't very good at speaking in English so she said, "Are you... good."
"I am fine" she answered. "My head hurts a little bit but that's all."
The nurse paused a bit, processing what the girl had said.
"Where is your family?" Light asked.
"They aren't here. I'm by myself. By the way, what's your name? Let me guess, is it Light?"
"How did you know? Do I know you?" I said calmly.
"No, but I know you." She smiled innocently.
She's rather smart for a 5 year old.
"How old are you?"
"I'm fourteen."
"What?"
"I was joking. I'm only 5." Again she smiled.
I decided I didn't like that smile.
"Where is your family?" I asked again.
"They are very far away. But don't worry, I know someone that can help me. But I will need a place to sleep until I contact him. I'm sure your family won't mind if I stay a few days."
No, but I will. I can't just leave her on the street though. It would damage my reputation. Plus it's not what a normal person would do. Then again I could always leave it to the police... I smiled warmly to her. She only lifted an eyebrow.
"Anyway," she said, "Please explain to the kind nurse that we're going."
After I explained to the nurse that everything was fine we went out and I led her to my house.
My P.O.V.:
That was fun. Light sounded a bit odd though. Wasn't he supposed to be smarter? Nah, it must be nothing. Maybe it's because we're talking in English?
"Is it much farther, Light?" I asked. This is so fun! I can annoy him!
"No there's only a block left."
"What about now?" I said one minute later.
"Wait a bit more. We're almost there."
"Now?"
"No."
"What about now?"
"We're here."
I internally pouted. Why is it so close? I could have annoyed him more. I sighed. Now I'm going to have to meet his parents. Or at least his mom and his sister.
AN: Yay the end. Does anyone think that I sound like L in this though? Oh yeah, I edited it because I noticed that I said I in Light's P.O.V.
