Pure Heart?

Hey everyone! Sorry to those who were waiting for me to update. I know it took forever. I thought that with summer vacation I'd be able more update a lot more. Apparently not because I've spent most of my time going somewhere with my family so I didn't have time to write. On my defense though its my parents' plan that I just had to go through with. Plus I had almost no access to Internet.

That...and I kinda lost interest in this so it's gonna take some time. don't worry though cause I'm not ditching this story. If you guys are mad at me for slow updates then my all means complain to me. Review, PM me as mischief as you want. That actually motivates me to write so the more you pester me the faster I'll update. Btw, I'm kinda into Avatar the Last Airbender right now (don't judge that show's awesome) and Ive already written a chapter which I will post tomorrow cause I'm lazy, so can you read it and tell me what you think? Thanks! Oh and since I've already made it clear that I don't own Death Note I don't think I need to put a disclaimer.

Angie's POV

Linda and I were back stage as we're the rest of the students performing. It was December 14, our dress rehearsal. The same day FBI agents are sent to Japan to investigate on the Kira investigation and the second to last day of school, our school anyway. Light and Sayu would still have school. Sayu starts going to my school after the winter break.

Linda and I couldn't wait to see our outfits. Ms. Caroline is bringing them over. Of course she couldn't carry all those clothing so she paid delivery men to help her carry them. When she got there everyone immediately took the hangers with their outfits on them. I took two hangers that have my name on it. My outfits were just cute!

I went into a changing cubicle, like the ones in a clothing store (and yes we have those back stage, I have no idea where they get the money to afford all this. Nobody can disagree with me when I say that that is the best school ever to exist, not even Kaori.) I changed into my outfit for when I play the violin. It's the first performance, then I sing a duet with Linda on the final performance. My outfit was a bright red spaghetti strap dress that went up to my mid thigh, a white belt that was five inches wide in my waist to bring out some curves that I was just starting to develop, a snow white faux fur shawl with a red ribbon to tie the two ends together which covered my forearm, shiny black strap shoes with three inch heels, white socks that reached my mid shin and red headband with a mistletoe (fake) glued to the side of it.

I don't know how but she managed to make the bright red work on me. If you remember I told you that bright colors have never worked on me. That is until Ms. Caroline came along. She somehow made me bright colors look good on me. Apparently she believes that a designer who can't make the most unlikely type of clothing to work on someone work then they did not have the right to be called a designer in the first place.

I came out, picked up my violin and waited for my cue.


The dress rehearsal was exactly like the actual performance. The only difference is that the seats for the audience was empty. Linda and I bid each other good bye and I walked back home. I flopped myself on my bed and stared at the ceiling. I was exhausted.

So far nothing really changed in the plot-line. I didn't really do anything to change it since my plan doesn't start till January. That's when things start to happen that I liked to change. I'll tell you later. I wouldn't want to spoil what actually happened. We're going in chronological order and I'm skipping the part which are both uninteresting and unimportant. I wouldn't want you to leave in the middle of me telling you what happened now would I. There will be some things that I will tell you that you might find boring but I find important enough to tell. Either that or my story wouldn't make sense otherwise.

Chiyemi, still in guinea pig form, crawled on my bed to the side of my head. "Something the matter?" She asked but said it as though she already knew the answer. I didn't pay attention to that though.

"Nothing, Chiyemi. I'm just tired from the rehearsal."

"Are you forgetting that I'm your guardian? I know that's not it. Your thinking of the 'plan' again aren't you? Your stressing yourself. You need to relax and get your mind off of your plan for a while."

"No I haven't. Have you forgotten that I have a perfect memory?" I said in somewhat a joking manner. "And so what if in thinking about it. I'm looking for any flaws in the plan. So far I haven't come up with any possible flaws. But this is L I'm going to have to deal with. Knowing him, he'll find a way to mess up my plan. He's the only person who I can't predict what he will do. I've already know all the things everyone will possibly do except for him. I even know what Light, no Kira would do in every situation that I've planned in my head."

"Your right about that. L is quite unpredictable. Even so, you should take a break from all this thinking and planning. That's all I see you doing these days."

"Quite? More like completely. I do take breaks. I don't think about the plan most of the time in school. Just at home, which is the only time you've seen me these past few weeks. Why don't you come with me to where I go some time? You've just been staying here in my room and talking to me when I'm in here."

"That's because the only place you've been to in a while is you're school."

"So?"

"Pets aren't allowed to be brought to school."

"How strong is your grip as a guinea pig?"

"Pretty strong. Why?"

"You could just hide in my hair. Your fur is almost the exact same color as my hair anyway. You know how I tend to move around a lot, it could make you lose your grip."

"So your telling me that I should just come to school with you while hiding in your hair?" She didn't seem to like that idea.

"Well, unless you want to be cooped up in here until we actually start doing the plan..." I trailed off waiting for her response.

"Fine." she said as alike she was defeated. 'Why is she acting like that. Hiding in my hair can't be that bad.'

"Oh come on tomorrow's the last day of school till January and what's so bad about hiding in my hair anyway?"

"It's not that. It's that your going to be breaking the rules."

"Yeah, so. It's not a major rule and it doesn't matter as long as we don't get caught."

"I thought you had a pure heart. Now I'm having second thoughts about why the gemstone chose you."

"What are you talking about? Pure heart? The gemstone choosing me? I think you have something you need to explain to me."

"The gemstone chooses its owner, an owner with a pure heart. And someone with a pure heart wouldn't even think of breaking a rule. No matter how small."

I was taken aback by this "You don't really know much about me. Do you?" I murmured.

"Apparently I don't. I thought you were better than this. I thought you would know what's right." I could tell she's disappointed. "But I guess I have to go through with this, since your still the gem's owner."

"Shows how much you don't know about me. You didn't even think about getting to know me. You just expected me to be some goody-two-shoes who never does anything wrong. Well here's the thing, I'm not an innocent little girl no matter how much I seem like one. I'm actually quite far from it." I said the last sentence really quietly

With that said I turned my back to Chiyemi and fell asleep, not believing we fought all because I suggested for her to come to school with me.


I have just finished he'd with the opening performance and I was still upset about the fight between me and Chiyemi. If it weren't for Linda I probably wouldn't have smiled through that. I'm a good actress but one thing I don't ever do is fake a smile. If I smile its always a real one. It's not that I can't it's that I choose not to. I already changed into my outfit for the duet and so was Linda even though there was still a lot of time before the final performance.

I was wearing a red off-the-shoulders-sleeve dress with a two layered skirt that went up to my mid thigh, the rim of the dress have white faux fur sewn on it, the sleeves are also faux fur, the upper part of the dress are silver buttons, a silver waist belt, thigh length silver socks and I still wore the black the three inch heeled strap shoes.

Linda also wore a red off-the-shoulders-sleeve dress but didn't have faux fur sewn onto it and is only a one layered skirt that reached her mid thigh, the top part was more ruffled and has golden buttons in it, a golden waist belt, black stockings and heel-less black boots.

We both wore Santa hats and a bracelet with bells on them on our left wrist.

We watched the rest of the performance in the back stage until it was time for us to go on. When we got our cue, we both smiled and went on our places and I adjusted my headset microphone. There was one thing in both mine and Linda's mind 'Time to shine'

(Bold is Angie, underline is Linda, bold and underline is both)

Carolers singing

Sleigh bells ringing

It's that time of year

Everyone's toasting

Chestnuts are roasting

Christmas time is near

Something's missing and I'm wishing

Wishing that you knew

How much it would mean to spend this

Christmas time with you

So if you feel it coming

On this special day

Just trust your heart

Don't let your head get in the way

Cause its Christmas

And the start of something new

But it's Christmas

And I hope you feel it too

Candy canes and mistletoe

Jack Frost nipping at your nose

But all of it means nothing

Without you

Without you

Just for a minute you get the feeling

Look up in the sky

Santa's here so get in the spirit

Just give it a try

Children beaming and I'm dreaming

Hoping that its true

Cause it would mean so much to spend this

Christmas time with you

So if you feel it coming

On this special day

Just trust your heart

Cause I can't wait to hear you say

That its Christmas

And the start if something new

Well it's Christmas

And I hope you feel it too

Everyone together sings

Silver bells and garden rings

But all of it means nothing

Without you

It's not Christmas

Without you you you

It's not Christmas

Without you you you

It's not Christmas

Without you you you

It's not Christmas without you

We both sung with all our energy while dancing it like we practiced for months. We received a big (and long) round of applause. I felt like I truly belong. And at that moment I realized that I didn't care what Chiyemi thinks. The whole thing was so stupid anyway. She got mad because I suggested that we break that one small rule then I got mad at her. We both just overreacted. At that point in time, Chiyemi didn't think I deserved to be the owner of the gemstone. By the way she acted, I can tell that all the previews owners have all been those who almost never does anything wrong. I don't believe that anyone could ever go throughout life without doing something wrong. It's practically impossible.

'Well if the gem really did choose me there has to be a reason And Chiyemi can't do anything but accept it. I just hope we work things out soon' I thought. None of this was logical at all but at that point I believed anything could happen.
