Kira Revolution

Reasons

(Two side-stories today : This one is dedicated to michi-nin who gave me the idea for this one after a review. Michi-nin anticipated this so much and I bet the outcome will be unexpected...! ^-^ )

Dum dum dummmmm....!

In the previous side story, I had a conversation with Near when suddenly, THE PHONE RANG !

Dum dum dummm ! (Okay, we got it ! _)

Me : Umm...It's...-answers- Hey !

Near : ...?

Mysterious caller : Hey, babe, whaz up ? Phhh...

Me : O_O Are you smoking again, you - ?!

Near : Ahem.

Me : -looks sideways at Near and blushes- Umm..._ Well, yeah, I'm also seeing Matt, what's your problem !?

Near : ...-smirk-

Matt : Hm ? Who's there, babe ?

Me : Stop calling me that !! And you ! Stop smirking ! Wahhh !!!

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Me : I know what you'll say : another episode where something happens...Not exactly ! Cuz in here , there's the best scene of Death Note !!! ^^ *TADA !!!*

L : Perhaps that was too much information .

Me : *scowls at him* Why ? There are many different aspects about which scene is the best , some say it's the scene where Mello asks Near 'who'll get to Kira first' . Too much information would be if I said-

L : *presses a button on his desk* Watari , could you gag Dimitra for me ?

The day had started like most days after her release.

There had always been someone watching , for that she was sure. Whether it was Watari or Light and, technically, L, she could still feel a pair of eyes fixed on her wherever she went. Sometimes she had the urge to start bandalizing the hotel, but what enticed her the most was the wild imagination of kicking L on the groin, an imagination with which she lullabied herself to sleep every night.

Her relationship with the rest of the hotel residents was still kind of... icy. Everything she'd do, even a step, would constantly raise a fresh wave of disturbance from Captain Yagami's part and then a cold insult straight from Alice. With the other two investigators, she rarely talked since they were avoiding talking to her themselves. The one who was peculiarly trying to get along with her was Matsuda who'd always get in her way to chat with her, only to get a cold response. And as regarding Misa, the two young women had decided to make a small truce for the case's sake. It was Light's idea actually, since Misa was too much of an airhead to think for the good of the case and Alice was much too proud to drop her ego for a doofus. So currently, the two had started to talk more under the disguise of friends, only that Alice would usually blurt something about Misa's low intelligence.

Her affair with Light was going from good to better even though L was present every time they'd be together. However, most of the time she had the opportunity to be with Light, she'd turn around on her heel and wish to disappear as fast as possible. For some weird reason, perhaps fear, her heart was pounding violently at the sight of the detective being around whenever she'd be anywhere near them.

So, currently, everything was kind of ....dull. No suspicion on any other shady characters, no action, no nothing. She was still cursing the ones responsible for their omission of bringing her favorite books and movies along with her clothes and other various things. To her terror, she had discovered that her favorite book of all times had fell off her bag sometime during her chase, and was now wishing that it was lying neglected somewhere on her room's floor. But whenever she'd go to the lobby to ask for permission, she'd remember L's absolute orders, 'can't go out without escort', and would winc with disgust at the thought of being escorted by someone from their group of idiots. Even if she'd ask for Light to come, she'd been forced to have L tagged along and that only made her double-curse and shake her head in embarassment at the burning feeling on her cheeks.

That day, the sun was up as usual sheding its warm light inside Misa's room. When she first saw it, the first thing to cross her mind was how monotonous this hotel really was : it was no different than the other rooms she had been into, excluding the lobby and Watari's room of course. Her freak out of the monotony was about to burst when she discovered the clothes inside Misa's closet. It was like her closet had been transferred in the model's room, with the only difference being that Misa's clothes were kinda too glaring for her liking.

So, there they were, sitting opposite of each other. She and Misa sitting on the couch in front of the window and the two chained men on the opposite one.

Light hadn't taken his eyes off her as no one spoke, and it made her feel nervous that this tiny charade was going on between them in front of the other two.

"This is so boring..." complained Misa after a while, breaking the ice. Alice glared at her sideways and Light was startled to understand that there were others in the room.

L had just finished his cake when he eyed Misa's plate gluttonously, "Do you want that piece of cake ?"

The other two looked at each other in surprise and Light was about to let out a laugh when Misa replied arrogantly, "No, cake makes you fat, I won't eat any."

"Actually, I've found that you don't gain any weight if you burn the calories by using your brain."

"WHAT ?!" she squealed "Are you calling me stupid ?!"

'What an airhead...' she thought and looked away to get her mind as far as possible from such coversations. She was still listening, unfortunately ... Now they had proceeded to talking about L's pervercy... 'So interesting subjects...' She supported her now flushed red cheek on her hand and closed her eyes, wondering what the Hell she had done wrong to deserve this. 'Oh wait !' she thought sarcastically 'I killed bitches and bastards, how sweet ! Gugh !'

"Okay then, I'll just close the curtains and turn off the lights !" she heard Misa say deviously.

"We have infrared cameras in here as well." L replied calmly as he devoured Misa's cake and seemed utterly oblivious to Misa's glares. Tired of hearing only bullshit and his chomping on the poor piece of cake, Alice snapped at him impassively,

"What's wrong with you ?"

This time, all attention was drawn on her but just like L, she was utterly oblivious and continued as a response to his questionary look, "You were supposed to be motivated from being here, but you don't seem motivated to me."

L pondered on this for a second "Not motivated ? You're right, I'm depressed."

They all looked at him incredulously. "What for ?"

The detective was starring at the floor absently. He answered, taking one more bite, "Well... truthfully, all this time, I thought you all had something to do with Kira, and the entire case had hinted at that fact. I guess I just can't get past the fact that my deduction was wrong." It was the first time she had seen him so pensive. "Although, having said that, I'm still suspicious of you. That's why we're wearing these."

The silver handcuff clinged as he raised his hand, as though he wanted everyone to witness his sacrifice for the case. Alice eyed it impassively and Misa with dismay as he continued, "And we also know that Kira can control people's actions, which means it's highly likely that Kira was controlling your actions so that I would suspect you. If I suspect that you, Light and Misa were being controlled by him, then everything we've observed so far makes a lot more sense to me." Then he eyed Alice expressionlessly when he added, "Though it's strange."

Seeing her confused reaction to his statement, he urged to dispel her wonder. "Why would Kira kill mere students by using you ? This is the only missing piece of the puzzle and it adds to your suspicion, Alice."

"What ?! Keep Alice out of this, Ryuzaki ! She has nothing to do with Kira, I'm sure of it !" Light shouted defensively and looked over at Alice trustfully. She barely held back a sarcastic smirk - the whole situation had started to grow ironic. "And anyway, does this mean that we were all Kira during the time we were controlled ?"

'Duh !' Alice thought and then mused up to them, "Remember that my role in this case is the 'Other Kira' ?" she spat out sarcastically and glared at the even-tempered L.

L, however, continued as though she had never spoken, and nodded. "You are right, Light. I don't think I could've been wrong about that. You and Misa were Kira while Alice is the even more perplexed Other Kira. If what I'm thinking is correct, when your confinement began, you were Kira. I don't believe it's coincidence that while you three were imprisoned that the killings had stopped. Until then, everything pointed to you being Kira. But after two weeks, criminals actually began dying again." He lifted his head thoughtfully, and stared at the ceiling. "Based on that evidence, I can only conclude that Kira's power passes between people."

They all looked at him, taking in his theory.

Alice's frown twitched slightly. 'How can it be that he has figured out that much ? He acts on logic and only logic, it can't be that he has already shaped such ideas ... such correct ideas ! If only there was by any chance a way to drive his thoughts off the truth ...!'

"That's interesting." mused Light "But if that's the case, it's nearly impossible for us to catch Kira."

"Yes, that's why I'm overwhelmed." he sighed and closed his eyes for a moment, then opened them slowly "Even if we catch someone under his control, they'll likely lose their powers and any memory of their crimes. So in the end, pursuing them becomes futile."

Her heart pounded in her chest loudly . Why was that ? She looked down to her chest with widened eyes then back at them who were unaware of the loud sound. The idea of having a heart attack crossed her mind but replaced it with the surety that no one could have possibly done such thing. But then...why was it ? Maybe because of her idol's image suddenly shattering inside her dreams ?

'This cowardly, lazy man is the one I have been idolizing ?' she scoffed to herself bitterly. Drown in her thoughts, she had obviously missed something interesting, as Light was now standing up quietly, his bronze bangs shielding his eyes and said, "Ryuuzaki...", when his hands were balled into fists.

L looked up at him and Light swung his arm behind, hitting L straight on the face. L went flying backwards, dropping many things, and taking Light along with him. Misa screamed and Alice stood up abruptly, looking over at them curiously, but snapped a glare at the model as the latter supported herself on Alice's shoulder to wipe away the cream of the cake she had apparently stepped on.

L got up on his knees, deadly calm as he said, "You know, that really hurt."

"Now that's enough ! You don't feel like doing anything, just because your genius deduction was wrong ? Because I'm not Kira ?"

L brushed his lips. "Fine, perhaps I phrased that the wrong way. I meant it was pointless for us to make a move, so we shouldn't even bother." he replied evenly.

"If we won't chase Kira, then he'll never be caught !" Light yelled. "Is that what you want ? If you're just gonna give up, then what was the use of involving all of those innocent people ? More importantly, what was the point of putting Misa , Alice and me behind bars ?" Light stood back up, pulling L up roughly by the collar.

L's eyes were shielded by his unruly black hair as he said, "I understand. But still, whatever the reason..." He had left from sight when he dove down, brought his left leg up and kicked Light square in the jaw. "An eye for an eye my friend."

The surprisingly strong blow send them both reeling back to the couch, which flipped over by the impact, and Misa squealed fearfully, obviously worrying over Light to Alice's annoyance.

Alice stepped forward to them and shouted, "You're supposed to be grown men not stupid children !" but they both looked at each other furiously, and L said with a hint of anger in his usually calm voice,

"It's not that my deduction was wrong. The fact is, I can say that Light Yagami is Kira, Misa Amane is the second Kira and Alice Yumikaze is the Other Kira. But it won't be enough to solve the case. And that's why I'm a little depressed. Is that so unreasonable ?"

The two girls watched, each one of them in their own reaction, as Light got up and whipped some blood off his mouth. "Yes. Yes, it is. Besides, you should hear yourself. It's as if you won't be satisfied unless I am Kira !"

L was kneeling by the couch when he said raggedly, "I won't be satisfied unless you're Kira? Well, there may be some truth to that." he stood up defiantly. "In fact, now that you mention it, you're right. I think I wanted you to be Kira."

At this bold statement, Light swinged his hand behind again and brought another punch on L's face, who surprisingly stayed put. "As I said before," the detective said challengingly "An eye for an eye. I'm stronger than I look, you know." With that, he swirled around on his hands and brought his kick straight to Light's jaw, and they both went backwards again.

They staggered to their feet, then grabbed each other by the collar, glaring at each other furiously, when the phone rang and they were brought back to normal by their surprise. A startled-looking L picked up the phone, holding it between his thumb and middle finger, "Yes ?" he did calmly. The buzz of the excited caller echoed from the other line. "Oh, I see." L dropped the phone back roughly onto the receiver.

Alice was whipping the blood off Light's lips with a small napkin when the latter turned to L. "What was that ?" he asked.

L shrugged and his expression turned back to normal, that is, to his usual impassive self, so that you could easily forget there had been a fight in there. That was Alice's first impression, but reconsidered when she caught a glimpse of the flipped-over couch.

"Matsuda's acting stupid again." he answered and Light nodded with a light sigh,

"Well it is his specialty."

Light got back to his feet, for he had no choice, with L getting out of the room and saying quietly, "I should probably be getting back to the lobby now..."

Misa pouted angrily and Alice remained there, looking dazedly at the door for some seconds, when she was taken aback by L's sudden appearance at the treshold.

"Are you coming ?"

She nodded lightly and walked past him, ignoring his intense stare as she walked through the hallway next to them.

I was kind of anxious about this one, it's the first time I copy dialogues from the anime and put them in ... I hope it was nice and that I fitted Alice in well !

So, recently I've heard some things a lot in the latest reviews. First of all, that LightxAlice look cute. I must say, I think they're cute together as well but that's only because of my reasoning behind those latest chapters : Light has lost memories of the Death Note and those episodes of the series were my favorite due to this fact. So it's only natural that I wanted them to look better together in those chapters. ^-^ Second, I've heard that Alice and Shado are likeable characters. It's true that they're both my favorites and Shado is a natural talent at humorous and dramatic scenes too, but I wanted to say something about Alice beforehand : she might come off as an insane bitch, what with her wanting to spoil L's thinking of the Kira case as seen here, but we all know there's more to her...And third, I've been hearing lately that many of you would like ShadoxAlice. Hmmm....I know they're cute and....

I won't say more ! Just wait for next chapter !!! XP

Thanks for the reviews ! ^^

SuperCuteTomomi : I'll respond to both of your reviews, kay ? ^-^ Saying my characters are interesting and nice makes a smile cross my face ! So here's a chocolate cookie !
