With encouragement from Kellyangel1 I have decided to create another chapter to Prodigy

With encouragement from Kellyangel1 I have decided to create another chapter to Prodigy. This chapter will kind of develop the plot of the story original story. Although there is still a lot of stuff to cover for it to be from the real Deathnote this is probably close to the last chapter of my story. It's kind of strange, I started this thing just to show how I believed Watari met L and yet it's become a background story of the actual Deathnote.

"Mello, could you come into my study for a moment?" The head counselor called for Mello.

Mello ran to the old mans' study. "What?" Mello was an impolite boy with straight-cut blond hair. Nothing about his really stood out, not while he was always second to N. N, he hated that letter, ever since he had come to the Wammy House he was always second on the list, the letter N always standing above his own 'M'.

"Congratulations, you are now head of the class."

Mello smiled. 'So I finally beat that anti-social freak Near?" Mello sneered when he said the name of his rival.

The counselor hesitated. "No. Near has left the Wammy House and as such has forfeited all his past ties here. We would like to search for him, but he went missing on a trip with Wammy. He was signed out, and because he has not been signed back in he will be considered absent until his return. Until such time you are all we have." The counselor seemed saddened by what he was saying and seemed to disapprove of Mello being head.

Mello was mad. He was always second and when he was finally first it was by default. "Fine, I'm leaving too." That was all he said before he stormed out of the room in a huff.

Mello had never been this mad, not when another kid had kicked a soccer ball at his face, not when another had purposefully whacked him in the face with the tire swing (the kid had woken up at the hospital); none of it compared to what he felt right then.

Mello walked to the front doors, being sure to slam the door.

Outside it was raining but Mello didn't care, he continued on.


Mello waltzed into a bar and deliberately pissed off a load of drunken idiots.

"You little BRAT!!" One of the men tried to knife him but Mello was too quick, he dodged the blow and the bum's own momentum carried him to the wall, burying his knife into the wooden wall.

"If you don't want to waste your time wasting away on beer, then come with me." Mello said this and stormed out of the bar.

The drunken hicks were left to stare at the swinging door in wonder, but they soon followed the cocky brat.

It was done, Mello had found his team. He was going to use them to bring down N.


Yeah, for all you Mello lovers, so sorry, but this was how it turned out. I have nothing against Mello, he's great, what he did for Near was wonderful, but I needed to do this to him for something I have planned later. Wow, this was not the last chapter. There is going to be more!!
