"It's been a long time since I came around…" I just quoted Lady Gaga… yeah; I did… deal with it!
I still don't own Death Note or Black Butler (yah, I called it that again… freaking DEAL WITH IT!)
"What do you mean it's gone?!"
"We searched, but the security guards were found dead and the cameras were cut off."
"Are you sure?" Grell asked. "One hundred percent." C assured. "Alright…" Grell slowly handed his to-die list to Near. He examined it.
"The names of those who died aren't in here." C confirmed. Grell had a special copy of a to-die list he took from William; it contains the names of all those dead in the last week in the area the reaper is located at the time. "I see that… so you say Kira is using something similar to this?" Near asked. "Yes, we believe so."
Near picked up a toy robot holding a gun. "There's a special weapon in the States… it uses darts made of ice which hold a special poison that causes heart attacks. At first I suspected that it was the thing being used." Near explained, making toy bullets fly out of the robot's gun. "Yes, L and I suspected the same… then we realized there are only one in existence… and too many criminals dead at the same time." C said as Near handed him the notebook. C handed it to Grell who happily ran to Sebastian. "Also, that would be an act of terrorism and I do not want to deal with that." C's eyes rolled.
"The Sates have it heavily guarded; when the news about Kira arrived they made sure the thing was locked up tightly." Near added. "So you see, Kira is using a supernatural strategy." C said seriously. "Now we just have to figure out what it is and bring it back here for examination." Near took his robot and continued to fire fake bullets.
"There were four security guards on watch last night, all of which were wearing name tags… they decided it was safe to keep them on." C rolled his eyes. "I take it Kira came in and took the note back." "Yes, but it wasn't Yagami… we have him under surveillance and we watched him all last night." "I see…"
C smiled. "Alright, I suppose we should take it back now."
"Sebastian, this is an order; I want you to take Light's to-die list and bring it back here. I want you to stay unrecognized throughout your mission, so please do your best to disguise yourself." C smiled evilly turning to his butler. Sebastian gently shook Grell off his arm and stood. "I shall follow your orders accordingly… my young lord." He bowed. "Good, now go. I would like to solve this case before the week is out." C turned back. "Certainly, master." Sebastian bowed his head and headed out the door.
Light sat on his desk back at the main HQ.
"Light Yagami…" the same N came on the screens. "Oh, hello, Near." Light said, startled. "I would like to inform you that Alois shall be working here with me and will not be returning to the main head quarters for the remainder of the case." The synthetic voice said clearly. "I see…" Light said, tapping his pen. "It is for protection purposes… as you may or may not know I still am only a child."
'And C isn't?' Light thought to himself.
"Yes, I am aware… take your time, Kira has been a bit active these past few days here in Japan so I'll be keeping my eyes open for any clues or information and recruit to you as soon as possible." Light said seriously.
"Good… I look forward to hearing from you soon."
"Likewise"
Light smiled after the monitors went back to their original images.
A few hours afterwards he headed home. He took out his note and began writing. 'Stan "the Man" Jacobs dies August 7 at 12:00pm after leaving a note that reads 'Alois C Trancy, if you would want to know who I am, be at the congress building in Washington DC in four days.'' He smiled, pleased with his work.
He started laughing loudly. He was alone that night; Misa would be out at an acting job so he had the house to himself.
Sebastian crept in through the back of the house.
Light opened his drawer that only he knew how to unlock and tossed the note inside.
Sebastian hid behind the open door as Light walked by him and made his way downstairs. Sebastian waited until he was gone to come out. He smiled, he wore a white suit and altered his hair a bit he put on deep layers of eyeliner and had a doctor's mask covering his mouth.
He made his way to the drawer and opened it with ease. He took the note. "Death Note… hmm." He whispered. A sharp feeling came upon his chest. "Oh dear…" he said pulling out a long metal stick that would've killed any human. "I shouldn't leave any trace." He muttered putting the stick in his pocket, closed the drawer and dashed out the window. (A/N: *pushed red button* that was easy)
Light relaxed on the couch and laughed. "Think you got things all taken care of, huh?" Ryuk smiled. "I don't think, Ryuk… I know." Light smiled back. "Humans are too interesting." Ryuk laughed, taking another apple from a bowl.
Sebastian arrived at head quarters. "That was rather quick of you, Sebastian." C smiled, taking the notebook from his butler. "I only carried out instructions, my lord." He bowed. "What are you wearing?" C asked. "You said that I should go unseen and unrecognized to I went as opposite as I could." Sebastian smiled. "He's bleeding." Near said, not looking up from his toys. "Yes, I should get cleaned up… do excuse me." Sebastian bowed again. "Would you like to help, Grell?" he asked, as he walked by the reaper. His eyes light up. "Coming, Bassy!"
C rolled his eyes. "There you have it… Light Yagami's to-die list." He said handing the note to near. "Death Note…" he read out loud. He opened the note and began reading the instructions. "It says here that the name of anyone written in here will die within forty seconds of writing the name if the death is not specified."
The next day
"Near, are you there?" Light came on screen. "Yes, what is it, Light Yagami?" Near asked. "There was another killing…" Light replied. "There have been many of them…" Near added sarcastically. "Yes, but this one came with a message." Light said seriously. "To whom, exactly?" Near's curiosity was peeked. "Alois" Light's seriousness never left. Sebastian stood up and walked to his master. "Can you send it over?" Near asked. "Yes… I'm sending it now."
The note popped up on screen.
C looked at Sebastian after reading it. "Will you go through with it, Alois?" Light asked, even if the only thing on screen was the black N before a white background he knew C was there.
Sebastian set a hand to C's shoulder. "Yes." C smiled.
What do you think? Was that a cliff hanger? I think you guys probably hate me for making Light so stupid… but I can't help it! I have to make him look like this! I was born to humiliate characters I don't like… he killed L! He deserves this! Sorry, Light fans… he has to go through this. By the way, I screwed up on the story line and had to make a few adjustments to this chapter… its child's play for the time being, but I assure you Light will not have a Death Note for some time.
