A/N: Hello, I get homework over the weekend so I am very happy. I didn't post this earlier, like when I get home off the bus, because I had to redo an essay that's due on Monday and because I had to write these Author Notes, Disclaimers, and add the Horizontal Lines. I am sorry 'bout that by the way.
Disclaimer: I do not own Death Note or the characters, I really don't want to ever own Misa.
Chapter Twelve: A Kira Imposter?
Light's POV
I was reading a book early in the morning because of the nightmare I keep having about my parents when I got a call from Soichiro asking me if I want to join the investigation, however I could hear the bite in his words. "Alright" I said as I closed my phone and took a book and apple with me, Ryuk had tried to take the apple from me but I wouldn't let him.
As soon as I arrived I closed my book to shake L's hand "no problem, can't defy orders after all" I said flashing a smile as I threw the apple core into the garbage knowing that Ryuk ate it before it touched the garbage or its container. "What do you mean Light?" I heard L ask as I turned to everyone "I know I'm supposed to call Ryuga/L Ryuzaki but I don't know about the rest of you?" I asked narrowly dodging L's question.
'Matsui' Mr. Matsuda said and I smiled at the kind man, 'Aihara' Mr. Aizawa said and I gave him a small wave, 'Asahi' I heard Soichiro say before I asked a simple and obvious question "guessing I'll be Light Asahi?" I asked and L nodded. He told me what to do and I followed orders as Soichiro had taught me "of course" I said and I had to repress a shiver from Soichiro's eyes I know are watching me.
'Why does L insist I do this? It's probably another one of his tests which I believe is correct by 50%' I thought deciding to read getting L's attention "what is your opinion on the tapes Light since you look bored?" I heard him ask. "Actually I could solve this in my sleep because from Lind L. Taylor being killed I knew there was a second Kira" I said shocking everyone except Soichiro.
"Why do you think that?" I heard L ask and I sighed "I said you were playing the wrong game I know you heard me" I said and observed that L was contemplating something before he said that they also think it is the work of a second Kira. "Your games are mediocre and the wrong player/side is playing Ryuzaki, if this continues it's…" I said seeing the glare from Soichiro and sitting back down because of it.
"What is it Light? What were you going to say?" I heard L ask and I opened my book before I answered "nothing it's not important" I said and felt many pairs of eyes on me as a result. "Very well" I heard L say as he started explaining his trap which I listened closely to still reading my book, in my opinion it was a good plan.
"Light?" I heard L ask and I silently nodded telling him to continue and that I was listening before hearing that I was to act as the real Kira "Mr. Asahi?" I asked and saw Soichiro nod telling me to listen. "Rules are there to follow and so are orders" I said smiling at L and feeling Soichiro's gaze piercing me as if it was a spear.
"Think you can write a note from Kira and have it broadcasted?" I heard L say and I shrugged "I'm terrible at that so can Mr. Asahi help me with that?" I asked and L nodded. "Thank you very much" I told L happily though not overly happy, I heard Ryuk snicker from behind me as I walked up to L to retrieve the pen and paper and asked Soichiro what we should include in the paper.
"Is it alright? Mr. Asahi wrote most of it" I said only barely surprised by the 'kill L if you want' part. "I didn't read Soichiro's parts but if I did I would've erased that" I said gaining an odd look from L "sounds well put" I heard him say but I couldn't tell what he means.
"Seems your threat worked however I don't like this" I said aloud to Soichiro who threatened me with a boring romance novel, at the threat I pulled out my book and started reading as I listened to the broadcast made by the female Kira. 'Seems she'll help with Soichiro's plans but not if I'm his understudy' I thought almost hiding my smile.
"Light?" I heard L ask and I sighed showing him my normal Shinigami eyes before he nodded and turned back around "Ryuzaki calm down" I told him kneeling down next to him. "You don't believe in that remember? So for this moment you don't believe till you have proof alright?" I asked and he nodded getting up.
You may also write the cause and/or details of the death prior to filling in the name of the individual. Be sure to insert name in front of the written cause of death. You have about 19 days (according to the human calendar) in order to fill in a name.
Even if you do not actually possess the DEATH NOTE, the effect will be the same if you can recognize the person and his/her name to place in the blank.
"However the letters from the prisoners did mention a Shinigami" I heard L say as he sat down in his chair and Soichiro came over and asked about Ryuk in my ear "they probably want what's theirs" I said to answer his question. "I would say both Kiras want L dead to fit the first Kira's plan" I said pulling out my book again "I agree with Light on both accounts" I heard L say but I ignored him for the time being.
I listened as L continued "I think the same but I also think that since Shinigami are meant to kill I think that they'll show each other their killing methods" I said still reading. L then started explaining his plan involving the first Kira imposter and I could tell this was going to go wrong from the start.
'Great! If only L was smarter in real life then maybe I wouldn't have to do whatever it takes for this girl' I thought annoyed as I read my book in my favorite café. 'Oh great it's her' I groaned as I heard an irritating voice not too far away from me, I sipped my coffee wondering what Soichiro would say to her.
A/N: Hello, I finished writing this on paper on March 28, 2016 at 2:20 P.M. I am wondering though if anyone has ever noticed that the only alias that isn't similar to the person's actual name is Mr. Yagami's alias. See you Monday for the next chapter I hope you'll read it.
