YUKI THE ALMIGHTY
CH.3
Yuki was startled at a sudden touch near her hand. Her bounds were being undone she fell on whom ever it was undoing the bonds. She hoped to whatever god it was Kai, or Capri, or whatever real authority there was. Her arms and legs had been bound to what seemed to be a vertical surface which led to her whole body feeling numb. Her head was dizzy and there was a throbbing beat right on her temple. She stretched as subtly as possible so as not to make any sudden movements to entice whoever was on the other side of her blind fold.
Once again she felt a touch on her hand then arms being pulled behind her and finally there was the click of handcuffs. Her heart dropped realizing that her hope was crushed under the boot of whom ever was gently pushing her to her next destination. It wasn't Kai and Capri, and it probably never would be, she only wished she did more, saw more, and explored more.
There was a click of a door knob turning and then a dull voice saying, "Aizawa, really there is no need for us continue with such treatment remove them." Yuki felt her arms free and finally the visor surrounding her face was no more. She squinted at the longed for light and a figure stood before it. He looked no older than her brother. The extra cloth of pant leg grouped together around his ankles and shirt was a size or two to big and sagged like his pants. His posture was just as bad as his sagging clothes in fact his overall demeanor was just plain loose. He continued to stand and stare at the young girl and she did just the same. They both tried to deduce each other's secret in order to advance their knowledge.
His scrawny hand raised quickly in front of Yuki as to shake her hand. Yuki simply stared at the skinny hand and wondered what to do. Ever so carefully she placed her hand into his and gingerly shook it. "Y-yuki."
"L." At the single letter and name the Yuki's eyes widened.
"You're the L! Wait you're the head detective to the Kira investigation! Hold on I'm-" L's hand rose to her face as in to shush her.
"You're innocent. You are the victim. You have nothing to do with this. Right? However I look at this these statements are always 50% true on both sides. Would like a pastry?" His hand motioned over to a little trolley with many sugary delights. L did not expect the young girl to rush over to the cart and eat the pastries with a speed to rival his apprentice Mello's appetite for chocolate. "I take it you are a fan of sweets." L smiled.
"Sorry I'm a huge fan of sugar." She hesitantly put down her the candy she was about to place in her mouth out of embarrassment.
"No need to be shy, sit and enjoy the sweets I am a fan as well." He called over to an old man by the name Watari and asked for another trolley so they both had their own individual cart. So they sat on each their own chair and ate each their sweets. "Now according to evidence the notebook in your folder, with the text Death Note written on the cover, was found in your backpack." Yuki was about to retaliate but he raised his hand to motion for her to allow him to continue. "Upon further investigation we found names of many prisoners and civilians in which most have died of a heart attack. Now the names of such people is in your hand writing with smudge marks fitting to your palm. With this information we would link you to the murders, however, we have also found that you have no fingerprints on a single page or cover on the notebook and in fact the finger prints found belong to another person. This person is believed to be male and your accomplice. Ms. Yuki who is that man? Is it the man you were walking with? How about that curious fellow living with your family? Your brother's? My word Yuki you have many men in your life, we haven't even included your other friends at school. So tell me Yuki, whose love are you trying to acquire?"
Yuki paused from eating any more sweets and sat in her chair quietly with her head hanging down in way L could not see her face. Finally she raised her, stuck her tongue in between her lips and blew a long raspberry at the detective. "I have never committed a murder my entire life, and neither has any single guy I know. As for your offensive comment on the men in my life, I have a reverse harem I'm not ashamed of and I am not looking into "acquiring someone's affection." I'm sorry you have gone through the trouble of probably running around to find a lead, I've watched CSI and understand how hard it must be for you to realize I am not your suspect. What I don't understand is, what led you to believe I was the culprit to begin with?"
"The letters in your hand writing, sent to this task force telling us in riddles who was responsible. Honestly the worst mistake most criminals make. You are no different than the rest of them, though maybe a better actor. You are as dimwitted and naïve. You have an ego so huge it's unbelievable how well you are able to hide it with this dorky daydreaming school gir-" L stopped to notice the girl's eyes began to bubble with tears.
"You are so mean, why do you keep making up lies? I don't even know what letters you are talking about. I want Kai, please let me see him." L was quiet to the girl's response to his deductions and continued to stare at said girl. Finally a grin spread across L's face.
"Ms. Yuki would allow me to give you a poly graph test. It would help the both in the end. And in return I'll allow your dear friend Kai to accompany you after the test depending on the results."
"That sounds good." Yuki smiled back at L. Her hopes began to rise up again knowing she would be proved innocent after this test.
But before this meeting could go any farther a pounding noise was heard from the entrance door to the little office room. Yuki began to tense up as the thumping grew more and more intense. "I wonder who that could be." L said in the most nonchalant voice one such as L could only accomplish. Finally the door gave way and in walked a figure with eyes glowering with rage. "You know the door was open."
The figure walked over to L and grabbed him by the collar of the shirt. Yuki stood in shock of the familiar face of this new character.
"M-Miu!?"
