Even though I posted chapter 6 in the beginning of the week and this chapter at the end, I still kept to posting two this week didn't I? Anyway, i'm still going to have one a week now, so yeah. Also, I hope you enjoy the chapter! :D


I heard Akashine chuckle behind me. I looked at him and saw he was looking beyond where I was standing. I followed his eyes and then was shocked to see a black haired girl looking at them and writing in a black notebook titled 'Death Note'.

"Hey!" I shouted, running towards her. The others looked at who I was shouting to and, while Sion and Amber were confused, Elvira chased after me. The girl with the Death Note squealed and ran away.

I chased her past the buildings and surprisingly, she was very fast. However, I was the fastest runner in the school district, so it wasn't long until I caught up to her and grabbed her jacket hood, causing her to stop and struggle and to break free.

"Let me go! I didn't do it!" she confessed, almost on the verge of tears. I snatched the Death Note from her arms just as Elvira caught up to me, panting heavily.

"Oh my God Matt-kun!" she collapsed on the ground, croaking. "How(pant)did you(pant)get so fast?" I looked down at Elvira and sighed before opening up the notebook. I flipped through the pages, seeing a few names I could recognize easily. I came to a page with the names of all the cast members from the show the second Kira massacred. My grip on the notebook tightened, my knuckles turning white. I had finally found the second Kira.

"Please..." the girl whimpered. "...I didn't mean to." I glared at the girl, barraging her with a look of utter hate in my eyes, while my face remained calm. She cowered and looked away.

"Where did you get this notebook?" I asked her quietly. She was silent for a second, almost as if I didn't say anything. Then, she looked at me with tears visable in her eyes and opened up in a string of words.

"I found the notebook in a MacDonalds one day and looked through it and saw a few names written in it but I thought it wasn't real so I took it home and then watched some TV and saw a show that was criticizing Kira and I was mad so I looked up the name of the producer of the show and wrote a long description of how everyone on it would die and it...it actually happened!" her tears were running down her face as if someone had soaked her with a water hose. I pinched the bridge of my nose and shut my eyes.

"W...wait?" I heard Elvira attempt to speak while still laying exhausted on the ground. "The Death...Death Note is real?" I opened my eyes and looked down at her. She was looking back and forth between the girl and myself.

"Of course it isn't real." I said openly. The girl huffed and then stopped crying. "This girl just obviously has psychological problems." I looked at her and she looked utterly shattered by my statement.

"But..." the girl whispered. "But...the eyes say you're Kira..." For a fraction of a second, I could see a flicker of red in her eyes. "You don't...have a deathdate." So the girl had met her shinigami and gotten shinigami eyes? For someone so unorganized and innocent, she might be useful in the future.

"Ridiculous." I stated. "You've obviously watched Death Note too much." I started to walk away with the notebook. "I don't think you need this notebook anymore..." I heard swift footsteps and then, suddenly, the girl had pulled me into a hug from behind and was sobbing into my back.

"mfff-please! Don-mfff-how the notebo-mff-to anyone!" I slowly pushed her off me and looked at her. Her hair was a mess, and her face was stained with tears. She was looking at me with utter hopelessness, and was begging me to not tell anyone about the notebook. In other words, she was the perfect person to manipulate.

"What's your name?" I asked. She tried to stop crying for a bit and then answered.

"Ley...Leyann." she muttered, wiping her eyes with the sleeve of her long sweatshirt.

"Well Leyann..." I looked over at Elvira, who was watching us intently. "...I won't tell anyone." The girl practically tackled me to the ground with a hug and was continuously sobbing 'thank you!'s into my chest. I escaped her grasp and she got up, combing a hand through her hair.

"Umm...Thank you Matthew." she said nervously, blushing while she twirled some of her hair. "I'm sorry for being so open, I just couldn't handle it." I could see she understood why I had acted like she was lying now. Now, she knew that I was Kira, and that I knew she was the second Kira.

"I understand." I said quietly. Elvira got up behind us and walked over to me. She looked confused, and I could tell she wouldn't beable to see any of the hidden words behind our conversation because of her lack of social skills.

The bell rang loudly, announcing the beginning of first period. Leyann jumped when it rang, and then looked extremely worried.

"Oh no! I left all my things in the front of the school! I'm going to be late again!" she was about to rush away, but I put a hand on her shoulder.

"Leyann, maybe we should stay in contact." I held the notebook up to her and she then realized what I meant.

"Umm...yeah." she took out her cell phone and we exchanged numbers. I then handed her the notebook and whispered quietly in her ear.

"Don't do anything unless I tell you to." she nodded and then frantically ran towards the front of the school. Elvira and I walked the other direction, which happened to be a shortcut to the place we were before.

"What was that all about?" she asked, confused. I looked to my right and saw Akashine on one of the rooftops, having seen the whole thing.

"Nothing Elvira. Nothing." I heard Akashine's cackle echo off the walls of the nearby buildings.
