Skylar-
I tuck the jar of jam in my over-the-shoulder bag and hum happily as I stroll down the street. Today was going to be awesome, the sky was clear, the sun was bright and the birds were chirping. Now I am going to see the most important person in my life for another visit. Nothing could ruin this day. At least that's what I thought until I arrived at the Prison.
"I would like to have another private interrogation with prisoner 1807 also known as BB." I say professional tone with a stoic expression. "Sorry, Agent Michaels but that he is deceased. He died of a heart attack around midnight along with 32 other prisoners. We suspect he was another victim of Kira. Would you like to check the body Ma'am?" the guard says. I tilt my head down to where a shadow casts over my eyes. BB? Dead? Impossible, there is no way. He is probably faking it to escape, BB can't be killed that easily… could he? I have to see it with my own eyes "Yes please." I follow the man to the back room, there I see him, BB flat on a metal table with his eyes closed. The guard leaves the room and closes the door behind him. I walk towards BB's body; he looked like he was sleeping, like he could wake up any moment and tell me he was ok. I put my hand on his forehead and moved his bangs out of the way and stroked his forehead. It was so cold; I look at his chest it wasn't moving. It was true; my beloved BB was gone taken by some psychopath trying to play God by killing criminals. "BB please wake up. Please I want to see your eyes, your beautiful bright red eyes." I have to leave quickly or else when I do my face will be puffy and then the guard would suspect something. I have to mourn in the privacy of my home. I dart out of the prison and do the only thing I can think of, run. I ran like the Devil himself was after me, as if I could just run from my problems. Once I reached my home I threw myself on my bed and began to sob into my pillow. The crying racked my body as I wailed; I find the bear Beyond gave me and hug it close my chest. It still smells like him. I tuck my face in my bear taking in BB's scent. It's the only reminder I have of him, the only thing that proved he existed. I spend the next few weeks just mourning, I haven't ate anything in days and it was starting to show. I have to get away from this place or else I'll never be able to get over this. My eyes shift to the mail, it was from To-Oh University. My scholarship was still open for acceptance. Perfect, this was exactly what I needed to distract me, not to mention Japan would be a nice change of scenery. But first I would have to retire from the FBI; I send a message to L to talk about my resigning.
"Well it is a shame to lose a valuable adversary like you Miss. Michaels. But why is it you are leaving us?" L says through the computer. "I want to go back to school; I still have yet to go to college." I say in a steady voice. "I see, well Miss. Michaels it has been a pleasure working with you." I slightly bow my head. "Same thing goes to you Detective." We end the call and I start packing then head to the airport.
I walk into my dorm at To-Oh University; fortunately I was a bit of an Otaku back in high school so I speak fluent Japanese. I see a girl with light brown hair, blue eyes and pale skin just a shade dark than mine. She was short and thin, her hair reached her shoulders and a bang that was cut just above one eyebrow. She didn't appear Asian. "Are you from America too?" she looked up at me a nodded then replied in a small voice. "I'm from Michigan, and you?" she looked at me with big eyes. "California, L.A., my name is Skylar by the way; I'm your new roommate. What's your name?" She helped me fold my clothes and put them in the dressers. "Kayla." She chirped. At 1st she was rather shy but she is starting to come out of her shell. Fun fact, she loved anime and manga just like me. She was accepted for her excellent talent in art and drawing. We spent the entire night talking about our favorite anime's and she taught me how to draw a few chibis.
I woke up to the sound of my alarm clock and I pull my pillow over my head. "C'mon Sky we better get going or else we'll be late. You don't want to be tardy on your first day." I grunt and pull the pillow down harder on my head. Kayla pulls the blankets off me and pulls off the pillow. For such a small girl she is really strong. I put on my uniform which was a short red plaid skirt, a white dress shirt that cut off 3 inches below the shoulders for sleeves, and a small black vest that showed the stomach of the shirt, also a red plaid tie that I tucked under my vest. I look like a freaking anime schoolgirl with my bang pinned back and the outfit. The red hair wasn't helping at all. I walk in the lecture room with my books held close to my chest. Kayla sits in the back while I just stand there trying to find an open seat. Then the professor walks beside me and speaks, "Today we have a new student who is also from America. Her name is Skylar Michaels. Miss. Michaels you will be Mr. Yagami's partner ok?" I nod and walk by the boy with light brown hair. It was so light you might mistake him for a red head. I sit down and give him a slight nod hello. After about an hour long lecture he gives us our assignment and we begin to work. "You can call me Light by the way." The boy said, this boy's face just screamed prep, unfortunately for me; I despise preps with a passion. They are always so perfect at EVERYTHING. But I need friends and so far all I have is Kayla. On the upside Light seems to speak English, "Ok. So do live around here?" I speak casually. "Yeah, aren't you from L.A. or something?" I nod, what did they do before I got here just talk about me? "Uh, yeah I got a scholarship here for acting or as they say it 'Theater Arts" he laughs and we begin to work on our assignment. This was surprisingly easy, it was practically a review from what BB taught me. BB… No I came here to forget about him. Then there is Light, who is like a super genius. And my hypothesis was correct, he is a hard core prep and I hate it. But I he is obviously popular so if I offend him there goes for any chance I have of gaining new friends. After the session was done Light and I went to go grab a bite to eat. He looks at the untouched steak on my plate, "You already full? You downed the salad and the vegetable soup." He laughs. I give a nervous smile "Yeah I just don't eat meat or anything livestock products." Do I have to explain this to everybody? He nods and we continue our meal.
When I go to my dorm I see a man in a dark cloak and fedora Watari… He stands behind a laptop screen with a black L on it in Old English Font. "Miss. Michaels I must say I found it shocking to find you at this college out of all of them. Also very convenient." L says bluntly he is using a voice modifier, I wonder why I've heard his real voice and I've seen what he really looks like. "What do you need L?" I ask. "You're friends with Light Yagami aren't you?" I hear him say through the laptop. "You could say that." I state bluntly, he may consider me a friend but I personally don't like him "Yes I could tell from the security footage. This is good. We suspect Light may be Kira. Speaking of which how do you feel about Kira?" his voice sound curious. My stomach bunches up. How do I feel about Kira? I hate him with all my soul. He took the one thing I truly cared about away from me. "I despise every fiber of his being. He is a murderer trying to play God." I hiss out. I can't handle the hate in my voice. Light Yagami, 1st he is a prep and now he is the jackass who took Beyond away from me, he will pay dearly. "Good to hear, I have a proposal, you work with us on the case and you can get rid of someone you hate so dearly. But in order for you to that you need Light's trust, so if Light ever asks you about your thoughts on Kira you tell him you fully support him. So are you willing to come back and serve justice?" I nod and grin "Of course."
The next few weeks flown by quickly, college was easy and Kayla and Light kept me company plus I met a few of Light's friends. All preps. Sadly the investigation is going rather slow. "So Skylar, Yuki is throwing a party tonight for the final exams next week, you want to come?" Light asks me over lunch. "Sure, I'm not doing anything tonight." Light grins "Ok, meet you there, I have to go get ready." He gives a nod goodbye and leaves then I walk into my dorm a dump out my clothes. I find a short red dress and some black leggings. The dress has straps that tie at the back of the neck. I didn't notice but my body has matured some over time, I actually got some curves now. It's about damn time, if another guy said I looked like an 8 year old boy I was gonna lose it. Once I put the dress and the leggings on. I pull my hair up in a high pony tail, since it's just below my jaw line when I pull it up it spikes out. I like it though, I leave my bang out which cover a corner of my eye and ends in a point, and then I slip on some red flats. Once I got finished with my make-up (I only used a little bit, just some eye-liner) I gave my bear a tight squeeze and put him on my bed before leaving. I saw Light infront of the house in a black dress jacket with thin grey lines going up and down it. He wore a white button up shirt and black dress pants. "Hey Sky. Looks like you dressed up for the occasion." He commented. I smirk "I could say the same to you." He laughs and walks me in. "By the way Skylar you're really smart. Wouldn't surprise me if you have the highest score." He grins. I feel like I am going to puke. "Thanks Light I had a good teacher." He nods and I feel a knot in my stomach at the thought of who my teacher was. The party was fun lots of good music and mingling. It was getting late and I told Light that I should be getting back to my dorm. He said to go ahead and he'd catch up. I walked down the street and looked at the night sky. It was beautiful, the stars shone so brightly. All of a sudden I feel a hand grab around my throat, "How ya doin' hot stuff?" I hear a rough voice whisper in my ear. He rips off a piece of my dress exposing my stomach to the cold night hair. He slides his hand down the hole, and then slides the other up caressing my chest as his other hand got lower. Oh God, please no, please no. Tears flow down my face, and then I scream for help. The man knees me hard in the back "Hey, bitch shut up!" He yells in my ear. "Get away from her you pervert!" I see Light running at the man. The man throws me on the ground and takes off. I curl up into a ball and begin to cry; Light wraps his arms around me and strokes my head to calm me down. "It's going to be ok he is gone now." He says softly. "You don't get it Light he touched me." I choke out. Light stiffens "Touched you?" I nod and Light walks me back to my dorm. "I swear to God Skylar once I figure out whom that pig is I'll make him pay." Light says harshly. Yeah right. "What are you gonna do send Kira a note? 'Oh, hey Kira some scumbag almost raped my friend can you give him a heart attack please?' I don't think he takes requests Light." I smirk. Light grins at the fact that I returned to my old self. "Remember my dad is a part of the task force." I nod.
The next day we have a meeting at L's apartment with the rest of the task force. It's weird working with your friend's parent, though Mr. Yagami is a nice guy, and an awesome police officer. "There appears to be another murder." L says squatting in a chair infront of a projection. He pushes a button and shows a man about mid-thirties, he was bald and had a stubbly chin, and I recognized him immediately. "That's the son of a bitch who tried to fucking rape me yesterday." I spit out. "Yes, Light told me about the incident, I was going to try to investigate it but it appears someone got to him first." Mr. Yagami commented turning back to the projection. "Kira?" I asked, maybe Light lived up to his word. "No, it wasn't Kira; this death was much more… gruesome." L says as he turns to the next picture, it showed the body of the thug, his body was sliced up and his manhood was chopped off and shoved in his eye socket. The entire task forced gagged, "I haven't seen a death that gruesome since-"L cuts me off "The L.A.B.B case, the victim was obviously tortured, whoever did this had a grudge." L takes a bite out of his short cake. "Honestly after what that man did to Skylar I think he deserved it." Matsuda states, I was thinking the same thing but I wouldn't have said it. "For once Matsuda I agree with you." L states, he says the meeting is adjured and I go back to my dorm. Kayla wasn't there tonight; she was off visiting family for the weekend. I change into my pajamas and lay in bed. I hug my bear to my chest and just after I dozed off to sleep I am awakened by a pair of pale arms in long black sleeves that wrapped themselves around me.
