Soon our work is done,

All of us one by one.

Still we live our lives,

As if all this stuff survives.

Revenge. After years living like a blind eyed groupie Misa has finally seen through me. I don't expect her to realize that, once again, she is nothing more than a weapon in my hands, but after all I must admit that she can be surprisingly useful at times.

Maybe Takada was a bit more pleasant company, in terms of cultural level, but seems like luck is always by Misa's side. I must face that fact.

And it's not only about luck. Ryuk made it all the way back to her with a Life Note and a Death Note just to let her pull this scene. Reapers are on her side too.

That's not so bad.

Thanks to her now I can have my revenge against Nate. And I can destroy Mello and L for the second time. The premises guarantee an entertaining war.

Actually, there are many parts of her plan that are making my life quite uncomfortable, but that's not very relevant.

I have 32 days left to find the other Life Note. I could try to manipulate someone to destroy it, but there is no guarantee that's going to work. Anyway, I am supposed to be the one setting the rules, I shall follow them someway. Misa couldn't make everything right.

Now...at the end of the term...what shall I do?

Killing them all seems a good solution, even if just temporary. It might work like a slap in the faces of those three stupid detectives.

"Light, don't you like your drink?"

"Ah...sorry I was lost in thoughts"

Misa, as usual, interrupts my reasonings in the best moment. I will think about a nice way to kill L, Near and Mihael later...

"So... Are you proud of my work?"

"Of course, Misa. I wouldn't have taken you out if I wasn't"

"Yay! I did my best to make you happy Light!"

Damn. That giggly piercing voice reminds me why I moved to Takada. I wish Misa was voiceless. That would solve all my problems.

"How do you plan to find the owner of the Life Note, honey?"

"I will pass through Aizawa and the other idiots. They cannot cut their connections to the force, but I suppose they are going to help Near, L and Mello. I will trace them"

"Awww, Light! You are a genius!"

I smile at the airhead in front of me. It's incredible to think that she can actually be smart occasionally. Unfortunately, she seems able to do intelligent things only when I am not around.

"I want to have a walk, Misa. I need to see how the world changed without Kira"

The smiling girl takes my hands and leads me in the crowded streets.

Tokyo didn't change much. The city lights bright up the upcoming evening, blinding the masses of people wandering in the sunset to have some fun and forget about their miserable lifes. However, looking just around the corners I see the worst kind of human scum. Drug sellers, prostitutes, thieves.

The world fell in sin once again. As soon as I was gone evil took over.

But one thing changed. People realized the importance of my operate. Kira became a real God. No matter if the legal system supports me or not. People does.

I laugh realizing that Nate did not defeat me at all. He might have stopped Light, but he didn't kill Kira. And not even death is a problem for me anymore.

I am a God.

"Are you having fun?"

"Yes Misa. I see that there is a lot of work to do"

"I can't wait for it", she says quietly, clinging closely to my arm.

Suddenly the crowd freezes.

I look around and notice that the big screens in the square are broadcasting a communicate. The screens show the face of a young woman kidnapped few months ago.

"Who is that girl Misa?", I ask knowing that she is more into gossip then anyone else.

"Oh...that's right you've been dead for a long time, you are not updated regarding politics. She is Layla Whalls. Better said, Layla River. She is the daughter of the current president of the Usa"

"River?"

"She was adopted when she was very little. And guess what! Thanks to Mikami and to my eyes I discovered that she is Near's sister!"

"What...what was the purpose of knowing that?"

Suddenly the screens conclude the explanation Misa is giving me.

From the big screens, a giant version of my face and Misa's are staring down at the crowd.

Under the picture an arrest warrant, claiming that we are guilty for kidnapping the rich brat and the order to refer to the authorities our position if anyone has seen us.

"MISA WHAT THE FUCK HAVE YOU DONE?!", I yell realizing that everything until this moment was too good to be true. This is a big problem.

"Light I had to! But I am super super sure that I left no trials! They have no proofs against us! They are cheating!", she cries.

"THEY HAVE THE GIRL'S WORD!"

I rush to rise my collar and throw a scarf over Misa's head. We have to get away from the crowd as soon as possible. Not to mention that Misa is a model, it's too far easy that someone has seen her already! We just have to run.

This is a trick I've seen too many times before. Only L used the media like that. Near is more subtle and Mello is more direct. It doesn't matter if we are guilty or not. It doesn't matter if the girl was kidnapped. It doesn't matter if the police is really after us. That's not his aim.

He wants to know where we are. And the police is just a secondary mean to know that. All the people believing in Kira are going to cram up the web trying to find justice for that poor girl. He is using my own means againts me.

"Kuhuhu! I missed this!", says Ryuk with a sick grin covering all his face. "I wonder who is going to win this time, Light..."

"SHUT UP RYUK! I WILL MAKE THAT SON OF BITCH REGRET HE WAS BORN!"
