Light's POV
"Light what are you doing? Ciel why do you look upset?" My father questioned holding a vanilla folder and a cup of coffee.
"Uh…."
"What is that?" He questioned pointing to the note that I was currently holding. I cursed myself for my clumsiness and did what I had to do….
"I found the murder weapon." I hung my head sadly as his eyes widened in shock.
"Light-kun that is a notebook." He said almost mockingly.
"Don't come in here and give me your crap." He snapped.
"It is!" I screamed back!
"Look all of the names and victims are here! I keep seeing things now!" I screamed flipping through the pages.
"How did you get such a thing…" my blood ran cold after he questioned. He grabbed the book and jumped back in shock after seeing Ryuk. Being the educated person I am I lied smoothly.
"Ever since I picked this up from the police station lobby I've seen him." I sighed as if I was stressed.
"Please tell me you can see him too! I'm scared." I called desperately. One thing I was good at was acting… and this was going to be my biggest performance.
"I see it Light-kun." He whispered placing the note on his large silver desk.
"you say you found this by the lobby?" He asked.
"Yeah I found it by the door… maybe the killer left it?" I accused falsely.
"it's possible…. What is that thing?" He called drawing his gun quickly.
"Those won't work on me." Ryuk broke his silence stepping forward.
"That is my notebook. I dropped it into this world for some fun." He continued. My father stared at him in confusion and terror. He stepped backward creating distance between himself and Ryuk.
"Why are you here?" He questioned quickly.
"I have to follow that book." He indicated to the death note now placed on a stack of case folders.
"why?" My father continued but not dropping his gun.
"Well it's my notebook." He called.
"So you're Kira?" My father snapped.
"Of course not but I know who is." Ryuk stated with a chuckle.
"Someone in this room." He continued. I shot him a terrifying glare and he simply shrugged me off. Was our friendship false… I wouldn't call it a friendship… but we were always together…. What the hell.
"Who…" My father questioned cocking a bushy brow.
"That's not for me to tell now is it Mr. Chief police investigator." He replied cockily.
"Relax I'm not going to kill you." He laughed. My father seemed unsettled but lowered his gun but didn't dare to place it in its holster.
"Light you said this is the murder weapon?" He asked still staring at Ryuk.
"Yeah… if you look inside it has a whole bunch of crap." I growled out as my father picked up the note book. He read carefully his eyes widening at all the graphic details the book entailed.
"What the hell?" He questioned desperately
"How can we be sure this book is real?" He placed it down his brows furrowing in disbelief.
"How do we know that it isn't some copy -cat who is tracking the sick activities of Kira?" he countered and I felt myself stiffen with anger. Why did my father have to be so difficult? Here I came in here pretty much throwing him all of the evidence and he is blind and he can't see Kira is standing right here even though Ryuk said Kira was in the room. Did he forget? Did he not hear?
"We can try it out? How does it work uh… Mr.…" I asked Ryuk clearly knowing his name.
"Ryuk." He clarified knowing that I was playing the innocent card. Hey whatever works…
"Read the directions I happily took my time to write out." Ryuk indicated to the inner cover of the book.
"The person's name written in this note shall die. In 40 seconds they will die of a heart attack unless a cause of death is clarified. You have to know their name it has to be spelled correctly and you have to be picturing that person's face in your mind at the time." Ryuk explained.
"That's the gist of it." He concluded sitting on the floor.
"Should we try it out?" I pressed. Why am I helping them… I can make them believe it is a stupid book…. I turned around to see an intrigued Ciel. That's why… I ran away from him… but is giving the book to the police really the better option… it seemed to be working so far…. I won't be caught in a trap I have to stay sharp…
"No I will not kill the innocent." My father stated throwing the book on the table. Matsuda picked it up and gasped in surprise. Everyone copied and everyone mirrored his actions as they saw the gruesome Shinigami.
"Father we have to find if this weapon is real. You said it could be a copy-cat. Why don't we try it out on a person who is sentenced to death?" I replied smartly.
"Light it still doesn't sit right with me… We really shouldn't." He growled.
"Father we have to know. It is one criminal's life or millions of innocent ones." I reasoned. He looked carefully at me and then at the book….
"So I have to write a name in here?" He asked turning to Ryuk…
"Yeah…" Ryuk answered smiling wildly.
"Who should write it?" My father finally asked.
"I don't want to touch it…" Matsuda replied with a shudder.
"I can do it?" I offered… I don't want my father going to Hell because of my stupidity.
"Light I don't think that's a good idea…" He began.
"Young eyes and pure souls seem to work best." Ryuk lied smoothly.
"I guess so…" My father agreed warily.
"Well… bring out the jail bird." Ciel called from behind…
God this was going to be great… how am I going to work my way out of this one.
