Hello, my fans!

Fans, ha, yeah right.

Anyway, sorry about how short the last chapter was. I've been really busy because I went back to public school last week and I have a dance recital coming up. Plus my social life, which is now BOOMING, huzzah!

I own nothing! I live in a convent and own only a single iron spoon!

"Student 162, please sit properly." The teacher scolded the young dark-haired student who was sitting at his desk in what seemed to be the fetal position. Light Yagami looked sharply at this strange new kid.

Kekei, on the other hand, had her head so close to her desk that her nose was nearly smudging her test papers. She shook slightly as she looked over her finished test once again. The test had only started a few minutes ago, but Kekei had come early for two reasons, one was to be able to have time to check the papers thirty-seven times exactly, as she did with any test or work paper. Reason two being the most important, to avoid the crowd of people that rushed in right before the test begun.

The strange kid, L(Ryuuga), shifted his position just enough for the teacher to be satisfied and completed his test within the next three minutes. He was 100 percent sure that all of his answers were correct, so he proceeded to look about the room, his eyes resting on his number one Kira suspect, Light Yagami. Light was still working on his test, and was working on it and correcting answers until the time alloted for taking said test was nearly up. It was then that he finally allowed his now blunt pencil to rest on the left side of his desk. L wondered how he was considered a 'prodigy' when he couldn't think quickly.

Kekei was now checking her test for the thirty-seventh, and final, time. All of her answers seemed to be correct, as they had been the first time she checked it. However, she couldn't be too sure, number twenty-two, a problem concerning the volume of a convex polygon, had really stumped her. Maybe I should check it once more. I could- her thoughts were interrupted by a loud, high-pitched ringing that signified the end of the testing period.

"And now a few words from the freshmen representatives; Yagami, Light, and Hideki, Ryuuga." The announcer spoke clearly into the microphone. Kekei watched curiously as the two men walked onto the stage.

So they both got perfect scores. She sighed and looked at her now graded paper. She missed one. Stupid twenty-two... but it was for the better, now she didn't have to stand up, in front of a crowd. Plus, she had already given herself a beating, no need to over-do it.

She recognized one of the representatives Yagami-sama? His mother will be proud. The other looked very intriguing, like someone who cared nothing about the outside world. To her dismay, the two had finished their speech before she could tune in to what they were saying. Dang. They probably gave some good advice, too. Now they were conversing, and Light looked shocked and/or afraid. Then, to Kekei's horror, he looked at her. He looked her in the eye. She quickly looked down.

After a minute, she glanced up again and shrieked and fell out of her chair.

This kid was right in her face.

IN. HER. F A C E.

It was the other representative, the one with the black hair and dark eyes. After her extremely shocking encounter, she then noticed that he had dark bags under his eyes. She quickly got up and dusted herself off, muttering multiple high-pitched apologies.

"Hello." A deep voice said. Kekei guessed it was coming from the representative, but kept her eyes on the ground. She made a small sound in greeting. "I am Ryuuga. Are you Kekei?" She nodded and bowed.

"H-hello... Ryuug-ga-sama." She mangaged to look at his head, but not his eyes.

He frowned a bit. "No need to be so formal. Now, come along." With that, he began walking towards Light. Kekei stood dumbly for a moment before quickly scampering off behind them.
