Chapter 22: Two Shinigamis.
Back at the former SPK building as everyone had already eaten and went to bed. Seth was already in bed while thinking to himself about what Light said earlier.
"I figured someone like you who only reads kiddy comic books wouldn't get it anyway," said Light in Seth's head. "especially a person who looks like a nerd that hasn't gotten far in life"
Seth turns himself over in his bed.
"If his little anime heroes didn't just magically appear into this world, then he wouldn't be working with the Director of the FBI would he," said Light again in Seth's head. "Someone in his shoes won't last long in the real world"
Seth then turns over and puts his face on the pillow in shame.
"Am I really that useless..." said Seth as he continues being depressed for a moment.
Unaware of who's inside his room, Ryuk was floating in the air as he watched him for another second before backing up and phasing through the wall back to Light's room.
"Both of our little neighbors are unaware of your recording," said Ryuk as he phases through the wall.
Light then stops recording on his laptop for a moment and turns towards him.
"That's great Ryuk, but next time don't say anything while I'm recording," said Light as he was a little annoyed.
"What does it matter anyway," said Ryuk. "The world can't hear me, plus you're using that voice changer again"
"Ryuk, I just explained why you can't talk while I'm recording," said Light. "Director Glover and everyone else is also gonna watch this recording of Kira tomorrow from the news, that includes Mr. Kurosaki"
"So," said Ryuk.
"So, if he hears another person talking while everyone else can't..." said Light. "Then he's gonna bring it up and assume that it's you, causing my cover to be blown and me getting arrested"
"Oh! that makes sense" said Ryuk. "I wasn't really paying attention the first time, my bad"
Light makes a long and dreadful sigh.
"Ok fine I'm sorry," said Ryuk. "In fact, I'll go look for that orange hair guy and tell him to stop following me, will that satisfy you"
"Greatly," said Light.
After a few moments, Ryuk phases through Light's door and begins searching.
"Man... the things I do for this guy sometimes" sad Ryuk. "Although it's better than being stuck in the shinigami realm all day... now where the hell is this guy's room?"
Ryuk begins searching different rooms of each member of the team as he peeks his head through the walls until he peeks into Nami's room by accident. She begins undoing her green and white bikini halter top as Ryuk watches with her being unaware of his appearance. But before her top comes off, the view cuts away as it only shows Ryuk's head phasing through the wall as he begins laughing while seeing her bare melons ( ͡ ͜ʖ ͡).
(Sorry, no extreme detail of nudity for this story)
"Well..." said Ryuk. "That's something you don't see every day"
He then leaves her room and begins searching again.
After a moment, Ryuk finally finds the right room as he phases through Ichigo's room.
"Finally..." said Ryuk.
Ryuk then hovers over Ichigo and looks over to see his zanpakuto laying against the wall.
"Not a very good place to put that weapon" Ryuk thought to himself. "Someone might steal it"
He then looks back at Ichigo.
"Look's like he's asleep" Ryuk thought to himself. "Maybe I should..."
However before he knew it, Ichigo opens his eyes and suddenly pulls out his shorter blade from his bed and swings it at Ryuk. However it phases through him as it had no effect on Ryuk while Ichigo was surprised.
"Sorry, your little sword has no effect on me" said Ryuk. "But that was a nice surprise attack, how did you know I was here?"
"I sense your aura coming here" said Ichigo. "Though I'm curious what your relationship with Detective Yagami is"
"What relationship, I don't know what your talking about" said Ryuk as he was lying.
"Don't play dumb with me!" said Ichigo. "I sensed your aura in his room while I was talking to him, you and him are probably hiding something. That's why you came here, to silence me... isn't that right"
"Uh oh, this isn't good" Ryuk thought to himself. "Normally I don't care what happens to Light, But if I don't come up with something quick, then I'll have to go back to that dump"
"That human doesn't know I even existed, i am only watching him as an observer" said Ryuk.
"As an observer?" said Ichigo.
"Yes. Light Yagami's life span is almost running out, it's only fair that I watch over him until the end" said Ryuk as he continues to lie. "The only reason I came here is because I thought I sensed someone following me. I'm supposed to be invisible after all, It's my job as a Shinigami to watch over dying humans without being spotted"
Ichigo's eyes widen a bit as he lowered his small sword down.
"Your... a soul reaper?" said Ichigo. "Then... there's a soul society in this dimension as well!?!?"
Ryuk pauses for a second as he didn't expect this outcome.
"Yeah, sure why not" said Ryuk as he was just going with it and has no idea what a "soul society" is. "But like I said, I'm supposed to be invisible. So seeing you with the ability to see me is quite impressive, that's why I came here"
"Damn, I'm sorry..." said Ichigo as he lays back down on his bed. "I didn't know you were just doing your job. And to think there are other soul reapers and a soul society in this dimension..."
"Don't get too excited" said Ryuk. "My world is most likely not the same as yours. It's a dark barren wasteland, there's nothing there but sand and bones"
"Sand and bones uh" said Ichigo. "Sounds an awful lot like Hueco Mundo to me, are you sure your not a hollow"
"I don't even know what your talking about so I'm just going to ignore that" said Ryuk. "But like I said, I'm a shinigami"
"By the way" said Ichigo as he leans up from his bed. "where's your zanpakuto?"
"My what?" said Ryuk.
"You know, your weapon" said Ichigo. "You are a soul reaper aren't you"
"Well actually we shinigami don't have weapons" said Ryuk. "We don't have any use for them because there's nothing that can hurt us, let alone kill us. We basically watch humans die for our amusement, not go into fights with silly looking swords"
"I can't let him know about the death note, I don't want to tell him too much" Ryuk thought to himself.
"I see. different dimensions, different rules" said Ichigo as he leans back on his bed again. "Sorry for judging you like that, I didn't know you were this world's soul reaper"
"Not a problem" said Ryuk. "Sorry for disturbing you, I was just curious how you can see me"
"Well I am a substitute soul reaper" said Ichigo. "Maybe that's why I can see you"
"Well, that went extremely well" Ryuk thought to himself. "You owe me a juicy apple for this light"
"Aw I see, your somewhat of a Shingami as well" said Ryuk.
"Yep and I'm stuck here in your dimension" said Ichigo. "I wonder if anyone I know got sucked here too"
"Aw so he has friends, good to know" Ryuk thought to himself.
"Hey Shingami, I know you busy with your job and all" said Ichigo. "But is Detective Yagami really going to die soon? Do you know when he's going to die and how?"
"Shit... I didn't think this through" Ryuk thought to himself for a second. "Technically if nothing happens his life span ends when he turns around 88 years old, that's way too long. I got to come up with some stupid excuse incase he ends up getting stuck here for a while"
"I don't know how he dies exactly, but he has roughly 5 to 10 years max if nothing happens between and then" said Ryuk.
"5 to ten 10 years?" said Ichigo as he was a bit skeptical. "Why wait so long?"
"I don't know, it's tradition I guess" said Ryuk while making up more excuses. "We Shingami always come down when a special someone is close to the end of their life span"
"Special someone?" said Ichigo. "You mean you don't just observe everyone?"
"Yes, We keep a close eye on people who might be important to heaven and hell" said Ryuk as he continues to make more bullshit excuses. "Besides Mr Yagami has gotten quite famous in my realm for encountering Kira head on and surviving. That's why I came here to observe him Incase something hap- Aaaahhhh!"
"What! What is it!?!?" said Ichigo as he was startled by Ryuk suddenly shout.
"I've been talking to you for so long that I forgot I'm supposed to keep a close eye on him!" said Ryuk as he puts on a act so he can make an excuse to leave Ichigo. "I was supposed to tell you not to worry about me and leave you alone as soon a possible, but I lost track of time!"
"I'm sure he's alright, but you should go check up on him anyway" said Ichigo.
"Thanks, again sorry to bother you" said Ryuk as he begins to leave.
"Oh by the way" said Ichigo. "My name is Ichigo Kurosaki"
Ryuk then turns around for a second to look back on Ichigo.
"Ryuk... also I hope you and those other guys get back to your home worlds safely" said Ryuk. "See ya"
Ryuk phases through the wall as he left Ichigo's room.
(Play Naruto Shippuden OST wandering "hyouhaku")
Meanwhile back in Mexico, a group of shady people were hanging around minding their own business while Sherry and Brago were hiding in the distance. one of the shady people spots a person coming towards them.
The person wore grey zippered, high-collared, short-sleeved shirt and blue wrist warmers along with dark blue pants, over which hangs a blue cloth that covers him from his stomach to his knees with a purple rope belt. He also had spiky black hair with a blue tint while his left eye was purple as he was carrying a sword on his side.
Everyone else then looks over to see the man approaching them as Sherry and Brago noticed as well.
"Sherry, we got company" said Brago. "This guy is also different, but he feels like he doesn't belong here either"
"I see..." said Sherry as she brings out a black book. "Then I guess we should give him a welcome party, don't you agree"
"Hold on..." said Brago. "Let's wait this out off a moment, I wanna see what this guy really is"
"..." Sherry then closes the book and waits along with Brago.
Back on the ground as the wandering man reaches the group of shady guys.
"I'm looking for someone..." said the wanderer.
"Who's asking" said one of the shady guys.
"My name is not important..." said the wanderer. "However I don't know what this place is, if you tell me then I'll give you my name"
"Oh a smart guy I see" said another shady guy. "You think you can order us around, your no Kira"
"Kira?" Sherry thought to himself.
"Who's Kira" said the wanderer.
Suddenly the whole group of shady men were laughing at the wanderer.
"You can't be serious" said one of the shady guys. "Everyone knows who Kira is, are you brain dead or something"
The wanderer was quiet as he didn't respond.
"Hey what's with that eye of yours?" said one of the shady guys. "That's Freaky"
"It's none of your business" said the wanderer.
"Maybe it is..." said another shady guy. "Maybe we want to know about that eye, got a problem with that"
(1:25)
Suddenly all of the shady guys were surrounding the wanderer as they all begin to laugh.
"I don't have time for this..." said the wanderer. "Move out of the way or else..."
"Or else what" said the shady guy as some of them pull out guns. "Your just one guy"
"Plus Kira doesn't know our names and faces" said one of the shady guys. "So we can kill you no problem as long as nobody knows what we did"
The wanderer closes his eyes for a moment.
"Fine..." said the wanderer. "But just remember, you asked for this..."
"Kill him!" Shouted one of the shady guys.
However before they could do anything, the wanderer suddenly opens both of his eye as his right eye was now glowing red with strange black patterns. He grabs his sword and quickly cuts down every single one of the shady guys in a flash. As all of the shady guys fall to the ground, the wanderer deactivates his red eye and slowly sheathe his sword.
"N-No way..." Sherry thought to herself as she witnessed the whole thing from a distance. "He took out those thugs like it was nothing"
(End of Soundtrack)
"That was impressive"
The wanderer looks over to see another person nearby leaning against a large rock.
"I actually almost gave a damn" said the person leaning against the rock.
"Who the heck is that guy?" Sherry thought to herself. "A mamodo?"
Brago continue staring as the wanderer looks towards the stranger's direction.
"Who are you" said the wanderer.
The person then begins to walk over to the wanderer. The person was rather short coming in around 4'10. But despite his short size, he has a lean, muscular build. His eyes are crimson (blood red), with an angular and slightly slanted shape. He has spiky black hair with blue outlining and white streaks. He wears a long black cloak-like jacket (with a white collar and headband) and black pants tucked into black boots along with a sword tucked in his long black cloak-like jacket.
"My name isn't important" said the short person. "But if you're willing to tell me yours, then I'll gladly tell you mine. Trust me, if we're ever going to get back to our home worlds, then we're going to need to work together on this"
The wanderer was quiet for a moment until he closed his eyes again.
"It's Sasuke, Sasuke Uchiha" said Sasuke as he opens his eyes again.
"Hiei" said Hiei.
Everything in the area was quite as the two strangers were staring at each other.
"Sherry! That small guy isn't human!" said Brago quietly as he sense Hiei's demon energy.
Sherry was caught off guard for a second.
"You mean... a mamodo!?!?!" said Sherry quietly with shock.
Brago then runs out and jumps from the large hill as he was now high above Sasuke and Hiei. Both Sasuke and Hiei suddenly looked up and see Brago in the air.
"NOW SHERRY!!!" Shouted Brago as he was ready for a spell.
"Right!" Sherry thought to herself as she opens the black spell book and begins to read.
"Dioga Gurabidon!!!" Shouted Sherry as Brago fires a massive, purple and black gravitational well with multicolor beams swirling around it.
Sasuke suddenly jumps as far away fro the attack as possible as he see Hiei standing there.
"What's he doing!?!?" Sasuke thought to himself.
Hiei then takes off his long black coat-like jacket to reveal a black sleeveless undershirt underneath with a sword on his back. He take the sword out and jumps closer to Brago's attack.
"IS HE NUTS!?!?!" Sherry thought to herself.
"SWORD..." Shouted Hiei as his sword was suddenly engulfed by black flames with a bit of light green glow in the middle. "... OF THE DARKNESS FLAME!!!"
Hiei's sword of the darkness flame cuts Dioga Gurabidon in half as it causes Brago's attack to explodes head on in front of Hiei. Sasuke, Sherry, and Brago couldn't believe what just happened as they were all caught by it's intense power. Almost the whole area was completely ruined as it caused a large crater in the area.
As the dust finally settled down, Sasuke slowly gets up after being knocked away from the explosion.
"What... was that?" Sasuke thought to himself with a few scratches. "It was almost like he cast an Amaterasu"
Brago slowly got up along with Sherry not to far from them.
"How was he able to perform a spell without a partner, let alone without a book!" said Sherry.
"Damnit! Where did he go!" Shouted Brago.
Everyone then hears a faint sinister laugh coming from the crater.
"Wait... he's..." Sherry thought to herself.
"Alive!?!?" Sasuke thought to himself.
Hiei slowly walks out from the crater shirtless and that his jagan eye was out.
"You thought you can can get us with an attack like that!" said Hiei with a sinister smirk. "It's going to take more then that to kill me"
"Impossible..." Sherry thought to herself.
Brago was now a bit furious that his attack didn't work.
"What kind of a mamodo are you" said Brago. "In fact, I've never seen one like you before"
"I hate to break it to you" said Hiei as he looks over at Brago and Sherry. "But I'm not this mamodo you speak of, I'm a demon"
"A demon?" said Sasuke.
"Now... before you two start doing something stupid like that again..." said Hiei. "Let's have a truce and discuss why we're all in another world"
