At school...
All day. It was all day that Flores felt that mischievous path calling out to her! Absolutely non-stop. She was trying to stay calm and be cheerful, but she couldn't help but feel annoyed on the inside. It almost made her feel...rotten. She felt as if there were a whole different side to her.
"That's it!" She thought as she stomped to where the path led. As expecting, it led her to the library again. As she got closer to where the trail ended, she noticed that it led her to the exact same bookshelf.
"Are you serious? I was just here yesterday!" She held in her frowns. And from there was where she stopped in her tracks. She studied the feeling of the path. Yesterday she felt a calling, bribing feeling. Today she felt a darkness. It was like Light's but even more powerful.
"I guess I should check this out..." She complained as she walked to the bookshelf.
She touched multiple Misa Amane magazines until she sensed the same feeling from the path in one of them. "Bingo!" She whispered to herself as she grabbed the magazine. She flipped through the pages until she looked at one of them and had that same flash that she did last night.
She scanned the page until she found something useful. "Misa Amane is coming to Japan? Is this what my power wanted me to see? Why would I care about this? I have no interest in Misa or what she does for a living. And why do I sense this dark energy that I feel in Light coming from this page? Is Misa Amane...kira? And she's coming here! Does this mean she'll be working with Light? Are they going to kill ME next?!" Questions and answers rushed threw her mind. She wanted to somehow talk to Light about this. But she had to be careful. Or else she would be the next victim on the news...and not in a good way. Obviously.
She closed the terrifying magazine and placed it back where it was. The path, the darkness, and her anger all went away. "That means that's what I was supposed to see..." She gulped.
After a few traumatizing seconds she decided to go back to being a happy girl again! She had to go to her next class anyway.
At Light's house...
Light and Flores were working when they heard a knock on the door. As always, they let Sayu answer it. "Oh Light, it's for you!" Sayu liked to call Light down like that.
"Excuse me Flo, I'll be back..." Light left the room.
"Hm...who would come here this late at night? That's not suspicious at all..." Ryuk told Light. Light just ignored him.
"Rude." Ryuk thought.
"Stupid shinigami!" Light thought.
Light was surprised to see a gothic-dressing blonde woman at his house. He definitely wasn't expecting that.
"She says she's here to give you your notebook!" Sayu explained.
Light stepped outside to talk to this lady who was called Misa Amane. She explained how she knew how he was kira, and how she wanted to introduce each other's shinigami.
Light led her upstairs as Light's mom and Sayu have him worried looks. "She's my girlfriend," Light continued upstairs with Misa as Sayu freaked out.
Flores sat there, watching her hand as it spun her pencil in a spiral. "So addicting..." She thought as the pencil went around and around.
Light walked in. Flores was about to say, "hey Light!" but then her stomach dropped and she grew stiff when she saw that someone was with him. And that someone was...Misa Amane.
"Hello." Misa Amane bowed to Flores.
"Hi!" Flores smiled feeling threatened on the inside.
"I'm Misa. Misa Amane!" The blonde smiled again.
"Oh, I know who you are...who you really are." Flores thought. "Flores," she added on. "Oh, but please...call me Flo." Flores said without realising that she was mugging Misa.
"Flo, are you feeling all right?" This time Light asked her.
Flores snapped out of the suspicious phase. "Shoot I was mugging her, wasn't I? That doesn't look suspicious at all! Way to go Flores!" She thought because she was panicking. "Yeah, I was just about to sneeze but then I lost it. Horrible feeling, am I right? Sorry about that!" Flores said with a fake sweat drop.
Light and Misa stared at her for a moment. "Yeah, I hate when that happens!" Misa laughed.
"Me too." Light added on.
It was silent for a few seconds.
"Flo, would you mind giving me and Light a minute?" Misa asked, and Light looked at her like: it's Light and I, not me and Light!
"Of course not!" Flores rushed out of the now uncomfortable room. "Phew! That was close! And I really need to be more careful. I can't just go testing people who I think are kira..."
That's when the thought hit her.
Flores wanted to play a very risky game called...spying. Quietly, she placed her ear to the door and listened. It was very muffly, so she only heard a few words.
Notebook...tapes...God of...
That's all she heard. She tried to put the words into a sentence, but they ended up not sounding right. The best sentence she had was, the God of notebooks and tapes. Yeah, she's definitely right about how odd that sounds.
Flores went downstairs. She was parched, and was going to ask if she could have water. "Excuse me, can I-"
"Oh, Flo! I was just going ask if any of you guys wanted tea! Would you like some?" Light's mom asked.
"Yes please!" Flores smiled and nodded.
"Iced or warm?" Light's mom asked another question.
"Iced please." Flores added on.
Light's mom handed her the glass of iced tea. "Here you go."
"Thank you, Mrs. Yagami!" Flores bowed as Misa would.
"Call me Sachiko. You've earned it! After all, you're going to help my son get an A on this project!" Sachiko smiled at Flores. "You are going to get an A, right..?" Sachiko mugged Flores all of a sudden.
"Well, that was the plan!" Flores said with a sweat drop.
"Flo, I'm just joking around! My son's grade percentages are well beyond one hundred percent. So it's okay if that goes down a bit. But for you...well I don't need to see your grades, that's for your mom to see!" Sachiko smiled again.
"Actually, my mom isn't around. Or, well...she's dead." Flores said that so casually.
"Oh...I'm sorry to here that, but what about your dad?" Sachiko have Flores a concerned look.
"He's dead too." Flores said with no hesitations.
"If you don't mind me asking...since when have they been gone?" Sachiko asked as she cleaned the table.
"Since I was five. I had a big brother named Ender. He's been in jail since I've turned twelve. He harassed this girl. Well, two technically. But before we went to jail, he raised me. I know what your thinking. We couldn't afford a house! And there was no way we were going to be fosters, we were not planning to be separated! So one day we found this abandoned house, and moved into it. I'm not going to lie, we stole a lot of things. And I remember keeping a list of all of the things we stole. Anyway, when we did that our house came to life! Also, we used our parents identities online, and signed us up for online classes so we wouldn't fall behind on our educations. Now that I'm eighteen and have my own job, I told the stores that I stole things from them and gave them back money worth what I stole. Since that stuff happened years ago, they were confused but took it anyway." Flores pretty much explained her whole life story.
Sachiko stared at her, not knowing what to say.
"Oh my god, I totally made myself sounds like a super bad person!" Flores bit her bottom lip.
"No. That was in the past. Everyone has regrets, it's just a part of life. You have us now!" Sachiko smiled.
"That's right!" Sayu nodded, finally looking away from the t.v.
"Awe, thanks so much!" Flores smiled with a different feeling then happiness, she smiled with...hope.
Light and Misa came downstairs after a while.
They found Sayu and Flores eating potato chips and squealing at the sight of Hideki Ryuga on t.v. "He's soooo cute!" They would scream.
"I'm going to leave now," Misa said.
"Good, because it's getting late." Said Sachiko. "I mean, a girl like her with Light alone in the same room this late at night? That's not suspicious at all!"
Sachiko turned to Flores. "I don't mean to be rude...but it's not fair for only Misa to leave...so what I'm trying to say is you have to leave too, Flores."
"I understand!" Flores hopped off of the couch.
"Thank you." Sachiko sighed. She was a hard-working mother.
"No problem!" Flores walked out the door along with Misa, and everyone waved goodbye from the inside.
"So Flo, where are ya heading?" Misa asked.
"Oh god, she wanted to start a converstation! It's okay if I tell her where I'm going, right? It's not like we're going to the same place..." Flores thought. "I'm going to the train station."
"Really? No way, Misa Misa is too! TWINSSS!" Misa cheered.
"OH GOD, WE ARE GOING TO THE SAME PLACE! LORD HAVE MERCY ON MY SOUL!" Flores thought but said. "Yay. Heh heh heh..."
Rem stared down at Flores hard. "That didn't sound suspicious at all..."
A/N: What do I think of this chapter? I don't like it. I wasted my time. Anyway, until next time!
That didn't sound suspicious at all...
