I haven't updated in a while. (Oops.) I've been busy lately, and I couldn't get to my computer for a little while, and if I was on my computer it was for no more than two minutes. (One can not simply write a good chapter within two minutes.)
So, here's an extra long chapter to make up for it. I hope you like it.
I don't own Death Note or it's characters. (If I did, Mello, Matt, L and Light would still be alive and Misa would be long gone)
Enjoy :D
Dear Diary,
We had hardly found any information on this killer, except for the fact that he kills at exactly 4pm everyday. L keeps telling me that it really did help the case, but to be honest, I still had no idea where to look. Although, L is said to be the greatest detective in the world, I suppose this did seem helpful to him.
Anyway, I still hadn't heard from Ellie for a while, I mean it has been a week before I even thought about trying to contact her. But, Matt called me before I had a chance to, his car got towed. Should I try talking to her today? Or should I try to contact my mother to tell her that everything is okay?
I'll decide that later.
L thinks that Light is the murderer. I mean, he had his Death Note with him, in fact he carries it around with him everywhere. Could he seriously be the murderer? I have to go now anyway. - Grace
I closed the book and put it away. I sighed and rubbed my eyes.
"Have you found anything yet, Ryuzaki?" I asked L who was sitting across the room, staring at computer screens while tapping on the keyboard.
"No, it's all the same. People dying at exactly 4pm every day, without fail." He put his thumb in his mouth. "But, what does he gain from this? There's no reason to kill people at 4, other than to lessen the suspicion on him."
"How about where these people are dying? Are they in one area or all around the world?" I asked. "Because if it's only one area, then that could suggest that there is at least one person doing the killings. But, if it's all around the world or at least in more areas than one, it could suggest that there is more than one person." I explained.
"That's the thing. It's all around the world, but if it's a large group of people, couldn't they kill more instead of one murder a day?"
"Maybe, it's so that it won't seem obvious."
"Although, when these murders first started, it was just in one area, but now it's the whole world."
"So, that's why you think that Light is doing it, he has a Death Note, so he can set the time, date and cause of death, but, we'd notice. So, it couldn't be Light."
Then, it hit me.
"Ryuzaki, what's the possibility of another Death Note in the human world?" I asked.
L looked at me with a confused look on his face. "It's pretty much zero. As you said, we're only in a TV show, we're not real, neither are Death Notes." he replied.
"Right, I'm stupid to even think that." I muttered.
"Stupid to even think what?" Mello asked, suddenly appearing as if from no where.
"That there's another Death Note in the human world, and the person with the notebook is doing the killings." I said. 'Now that I think about it, it does seem pretty stupid.'
"You watch too much TV." Mello said, poking me in the forehead with his index finger.
I rolled my eyes and sat down on a chair in front of the computer screens.
"I haven't seen you do anything towards this case yet, Mello." I said, examining my nails.
"And what have you done?" Mello asked.
"Actually, Grace-san has done a lot to help to case, in fact she has done at least forty-percent of solving the case, whereas you, have done zero-percent." L said.
Mello said nothing. Then, he growled and took a seat next to me and he begun to tap at his keyboard. L smiled at me. 'Looks like we finally got Mello to do some work.'
After a few hours of staring at the computer screens, L concluded that we had finished a days work and we should get some rest.
"Hey Grace. Want to play a video game with me?" Matt asked, waving a disc in the air as he walked towards the flat screen television.
"Sure, what are we playing?" I asked, following him. We sat down on the long sofa.
He gave me the case and I read the title. "Oh great, another Call of Duty game. Got anything else?" I asked. I had already played this game with Matt a bunch of times already, to be honest it was getting old now. I don't know how Matt can play the same game non-stop.
"Uh...Well, you put in this game, which I haven't played yet. To be honest with you, it looks kind of boring." he handed me a game and I looked at the cover.
'Naruto' was written on the game. This was one of the animes Ellie and I used to watch, it had been a long time since I had played the game.
"I haven't played this in a while." I muttered.
"What is it anyway?" he asked.
"It's a ninja game. We can play something else if you want to."
He smiled. "I don't care what we play to be honest, as long as I beat you at it."
After a few long hours of playing Naruto, Matt got bored. I had won almost all of the games, but I did let him win a few times.
He turned off the TV and sighed. "Well, that was a crappy game."
It's only 'crappy' because you lost almost all of the games." I replied.
He rolled his eyes and looked at a clock that was hung on the wall next to us. "...It's 4pm, doesn't that murderer kill someone right about now?" Matt said.
I nodded. "We'd better get to work."
We stood up and walked to the computer room. L, Light, Near and Mello sat in front of the computer screens. "Have you found anything yet?" Matt called to them.
L shook his head. "Nobody has been killed yet, we're waiting for someone to die."
We took a seat in front of the screens and waited.
Minutes went past and nobody was killed.
"I guess the killer is taking a b-"
"Wait, a thousand people all across the world have been killed at the same time!" L yelled as he frantically tapped on the keyboard.
"So, that could mean that there's a large number of people doing these killings." Light said.
"Unless, someone's using a Death Note..."
It's been so cold lately. My fingers are literally frozen, I can't even type properly.
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this chapter. Not the longest chapter in the wolrd, but it was a lot better than the last.
I'll update soon.
