Sorry, people!

I've been pretty busy lately with school and other stuff and haven't had much time to update anything so…sumimasen….-_-

Ah, yes this chapter is really just filler for you to read while I finish the real chapter 4, which I am still drafting. This chapter is Light-centric.

Special thanks to rukia23 for suggesting I make this kind of chapter.

A warning though, there are somethings here that you may not understand now but will later

Disclaimer: I don't own Death Note just the story and a few OCs

Chapter 3.5: Meanwhile

Light Yagami sat at his desk, thinking about what had happened so far. So far, he hadn't made any mistakes. Now that Naomi Misora was gone there were no more "holes". All except for possibly the girl he had met shortly after killing Naomi, Sairi.

"Was that really a Death Note I saw her holding?" He wondered as he flipped through his own Death Note, looking through all the rules and the names he had written. Behind him he heard Ryuk chuckling, as if he knew what the brunette was thinking.

"What is it, Ryuk?" He asked in exasperation.

"You're thinking about that girl, aren't you?"

"What about her?" Light turned his chair around to face the Shinigami behind him. Ryuk continued chuckling.

"It better be not be something about the Death Note that you should have told me about from the beginning." Light warned, glaring at the Death God.

"Well…Her name…" Ryuk began, snickering at the mention of Sairi's name.

"What about it?"

"Every time we see her…the name I see above her head is always different." Light's eyes widened in shock.

"What!?"

"How can that be!? It…That's impossible!" Light thought to himself.

"This better not be a joke, Ryuk…" he hissed.

"Nope, it isn't." Light glared at the shinigami for a while more before turning back to his Death Note.

"Ryuk."

"Hmm…?" Ryuk continued, munching on his apple.

"What exactly did you mean by 'every time we see her'? If the only time we saw her was when I met her?" Light asked.

"Oh, yeah…I went out one night when you were sleeping and I saw her on a rooftop and noticed that the name she had above her head was completely different!"

"Are you sure about this, Ryuk?"

"I'm positive! Shinigami have great eyesight!"

"Did you see a shinigami with her?" Light asked, getting on the topic whether the notebook she had was a Death Note or not.

"No, I didn't but I did see her holding the notebook. It looked like she was writing something."

"So, chances are that might have not been a Death Note she had, though I can't be sure since it's only been 3 days since I met her, so her shinigami may not have come yet, considering the fact that Ryuk appeared 5 days after I first used the Death Note…Come to think of it, criminals who I haven't gotten to yet have started dying…Could she be responsible for those deaths? Either way when I see her again, I need to see if she supports Kira's ideals or not. But, there's still that problem about her name…." Light thought as he leaned back on his chair and sighed.

"I've got to look out for her…" he mused as he wrote more names in his Death Note.

A few minutes later, he turned to face Ryuk again.

"Is there a way to hide your real name from Shinigami?" He asked. Ryuk turned to him.

"Nope. Impossible."

"Then how was that girl able to do it, if you say it's impossible?"

"Maybe…."

"Maybe what?"

Ryuk snickered. "Maybe she's not human!"

"That's ridiculous, Ryuk, the only one who isn't human here is you."

"Suit your self." Ryuk said as Light got up from his chair and went to bed.

So, how was it? I'm sorry if there's a bit of slight OOC ness here and there but I guess it really is hard to keep Light in character during this kind of situation and to remember Ryuk's still there….
