I was walking in the forest, wearing a shimmery dress. I was barefoot and just exploring the leafy greens of nature. The sun was bright and shining. With every step I took, I could feel myself going closer to something, something just drawing me deeper into the forest. I had no control of my feet. I was being pulled into the center of the forest where there was Kira. Kira was there with a strange looking man they were strangely handcuffed together. The man was very pale and had dark circles underneath his eyes. He looked like he hadn't slept in days. He was wearing a white long sleeved shirt and very blue jeans. Like me, he was barefoot. His hair was black and all over the place. Kira and the man couldn't see nor hear me. They were talking on a random burgundy couch. The man sat in a weird position. I listened to their conversation, because I had nothing better to do.
"Cheer up?" the man said. "Sorry, I can't. It's probably better if I stopped trying so hard. By chasing Kira so desperately, we're just putting our lives at risk for nothing. Yes, it's just a waste of time." Chasing Kira? This man was probably from the task force twenty years ago.
"Ryuzaki…" Kira said, standing up. I suppose that it's the name of the man.
"Huh?" Ryuzaki responded as Kira punched him. Ryuzaki was thrown about three feet ahead and because the two of them were in handcuffs, Kira was pulled toward Ryuzaki. "You know, that really hurt."
"That's enough. You don't feel like doing anything, just because your genius deduction was wrong and I'm not Kira?"
"Fine, perhaps I've reasoned it the wrong way. I meant that it would be pointless for us to make a move so we shouldn't even bother."
"If we don't chase Kira, he'll never be caught. Is that what you want? If you were going to just give up, then why did you involve all those innocent people? More importantly, what was the point in putting Misa and me behind bars?" Kira interrupted.
"I understand." Ryuzaki said in a flat tone. "But still, whatever the reason..." He kicked Kira in the face. "…An eye for an eye, my friend." Kira punched Ryuzaki again and they toppled the couch over. "It's not my deduction that was wrong. The fact is… I can say that Light Yagami is Kira and Misa Amane is the second Kira. But it won't be enough to solve the case. And that's why I'm a little depressed. Is that so unreasonable?"
"Yes. Yes, it is. Besides, you should hear yourself. It's as if you won't be satisfied unless I am Kira." Kira shouted at him.
"I won't be satisfied unless you're Kira... Well, there may be some truth to that. In fact, now that you mention it, you're right. I think I wanted you to be Kira." Kira punched Ryuzaki in the eyes. "…As I said before, an eye for an eye. I'm a lot stronger than I look you know." Ryuzaki then kicked Kira again.
The ground seemed to be moving farther and farther away from the fighting scene. I was pushed back more and more. As I was pushed back, I began to think. My theory was correct. Kira is Light Yagami in a Shinigami form, so Ryuzaki must be L. The original L. I've always imagined the original L to be happier. He looks, in the scene I've just seen, depressed and lonely. Of course he was lonely, the only companion he had was Watari. Even though there was my father and everyone in our "society", he never really knew them… and they never knew him.
I was pushed to a small lake, surrounded by big boulders. I climbed on top of one of the boulders and sat down as I admired the pale blue lake. As I was looking into the water, there was a different girl in the image. The girl looked somewhat like me. A petit blonde, though much more provocative than I.
"Um… hello?" she said, annoyed. She had to have the most annoying, girly voice in the world.
"Hello," I said simply as I turned around. She was almost transparent, floating in mid-air.
"You're N's daughter, right?" she said with her horribly feminine voice.
"He goes by L now, but yes, I am." Why is she talking to me? I asked myself over and over again.
"You must be clever, then. But not as clever as my Light." What are you, a love struck anime character?
"I'm not sure about that."
"What, you think you're a genius? From your fashion sense, I don't really think so." This chick… she really needs to go somewhere, before I punch her in the face.
"A genius does not care how they look, but more of how others think compared to them." I sighed. "What's your name, anyway? I believe that you know more about me, than I you."
"My name is Misa Amane and I'm 24. I do any acting or modeling jobs, as long as I'm not nude." She- Misa- said. It sounded like it had been rehearsed over a thousand times. Misa… Ryuzaki mentioned that Misa was the second Kira.
"Misa, were you the second Kira when you were alive?"
"When I was alive? What do you think I am right now?"
"Well, if I don't think you're alive… I guess that means that I think you're dead. Doesn't it?"
"I'm not dead. I'm still alive, you see?" Misa pinched herself in the arm. "Ouch! See? I'm not dead." I stood up and smiled.
"But, you see," I punched her in the gut, but my hand went through her. "You are a ghost."
"But, how did I…?"
"You committed suicide after finding out Kira's death."
"I have nothing to do with Kira. I am forever in his debt, but I don't know him personally."
"But, you do. It's your precious Light. Maybe he made you give up the ownership to the Death Note, erasing your memories." I smiled with realization, "Everything makes sense, now."
I opened my eyes to a brand new day.
