The Shinigami Protection Squad

Sayu:

What!

Who's following you. Why are they following you? Do you need Ryuk and I to come get you?

Ryuk's saying that he'll beat the person up if they try anything.

Light:

I'm fine Sayu. I have Rem with me, and she promised that if the stalker tries to do anything then she'll protect me. Anyway, I'm nearly home so, don't worry about me. I'll be fine.

Sayu:

Well if they do try anything then they have two very angry and one pissed off human to deal with.

Why would someone be following you? Did your first stalker have friends who have come after you?

Light:

I don't think it's that simple. If this stalker has any relation to the first one than it's more likely he would have done something by now however, they haven't. I think there something else to it.

Sayu:

But what?

Ryuk said he doesn't like this. He's worried that Kira's behind this. Which I guess it could be. If Kira discovered that we both have the death notes he might want to take them from us or convince us to use them to help their cause.

Light:

I don't think it's Kira.

The only way for Kira to find out we've got death notes is if they made the Shinigami Eyes Deal which we haven't seen any evidence of that they have.

I think it might be L

Sayu:

The world's famous detective

That L

Light:

Yes, unless there's another L you haven't told me about.

It actually makes sense

Sayu:

HOW!

Like tell me

HOW

What make sense of stalking the child of the police chief?

Why is he the world's greatest detective?

How is he the world's greatest detective?

Light:

He's covering all the bases. He must have brought in extra help to make sure that no one in the NPA has a connection to or is Kira. He needs to cover his own back to save his own life. It make sense, he needs to know whether he can trust the people he's working with just in case there is a leak. We would be high on the list to being investigated since we are the children of Soichiro Yagami (whether we like it or not).

Sayu:

Okay you have a point I guess.

But what are we going to do with this stalker. We can't let him keep following you.

Light:

We have no choice. If we do anything out of line then it raise any suspicion that we could be Kira. We just need to let him observe us from the distance that we are two 'normal' children of Soichiro Yagami. We can't let it show that we know about more about Kira then we've seen on TV and we've got to be careful to make sure that he doesn't see us talking to Rem and Ryuk. Yes, in the stalker's mind it probably makes us look like we're insane, but L. I think he would suspect there is more to this then meets the eye if he finds out we are going loony.

Sayu:

What why?

How can talking to something that isn't there = Kira

Light:

I was reading up on L's cases recently and last year he solved the LA:BB Murder Cases or commonly known as the Wara Ningyo Murders. It was a case is Los Angeles where three people were killed in a locked room, it was solved by L and Retired FBI Agent Naomi Misora. But the killer Beyond Birthday pretended to be a detective working on the case and had planned to become the last victim however, Misora worked out his plan and stopped it.

Sayu:

I don't see how being mental = I'm Kira.

Light:

I'm getting there.

Anyway, when Beyond Birthday was questioned by police on how he chose his victims he said. That he chose them because he saw that they were destined to die.

Sayu:

What are you saying that he had the Shinigami eyes? Like he was born with them.

Ryuk said that it was impossible.

Light:

I know that's what I thought but if you think about it then it might not be as impossible as we first thought. I got the Shinigami eyes for free when Gelus died then maybe something similar happened to Beyond Birthday.

But that isn't the point I'm making. If L even considered that maybe Beyond Birthday was telling the truth about his eyes then he might believe there is something more out there. We can't risk it. We have to try and act normal.

Sayu:

Normal right we can do that

Ryuk said we're screwed.

On another subject. You know the fashion show I was going with my friends to this weekend. Well Haruhi had to drop out because her grandparents are coming up from Kyoto for the weekend and her parents are adamant that she has to be there. I was wondering whether you wanted to come along.

Light:

No Sayu. You know that this isn't my thing

Sayu:

I know, I know, and I wouldn't ask you but, Ryuk and I would feel better if we were all together. We can only guess this stalker play; and if he's not working for L then he won't do anything if we constantly surrounded by people.

Light:

Fine but I'm bring my mp3 player.


The nightmare started the same as every night. Light was running down a dark alleyway which seemed to stretch and turn whenever he seemed to get close to the end or his stalker would be standing there with the same knife he tried to kill him with. Light stumbled backwards running down another alleyway he heard footsteps following him, but they didn't sound like someone was chasing after him no, it was a slow steady pace. His stalker was taunting him, even though Light would run and run and run he would always catch up to him.

"I watched you from the shadows, I love you so much. I'll promise to look after you forever" his stalker shouted over and over again. His words were ringing in Light's ears that he wanted nothing more then to pull them off so he could never hear those dreadful words again, he never wanted to his dead stalkers voice again.

"You're dead. You can't hurt me" Light shouted.

"Oh Light. I will always be with you. Dead or Alive, I promise. I will be with you forever" his stalker said suddenly appearing in front of Light. Light screamed stumbling over his own feet before falling to the floor. The man loomed over his body; a smirk appeared on his face as he lifted the knife repeating the words Light feared "if I can't have you then no one can".

"Light" Rem shouted appearing out of nowhere, she looked over to his stalker who was preparing to strike and pulled out her death note before writing his name's name down. Light screamed as he watched Rem disintegrate into dust, but his stalker didn't die.

"Don't be afraid Light, we'll be together forever" the stalker said capturing Light's lips with his own before…

Light gasped as he shot up in bed sweating, Rem was hovering over him with a worried expression on her face. Light covered his face with his hands and tried to calm down his breathing, the last thing he needed was to descend into a panic attack.

"N-nightmare" Light stuttered out; his heart felt like it was about to jump out of his chest. Rem nodded, knowing full well that Light wouldn't want to talk about it, she had witnessed enough of Light's nightmares to know what Light needed. She wrapped her long skeletal arm around the shaking boy and pulled him close to her chest trying to give him some sort of comfort.

"Light-o" Ryuk said almost scared to approach the human, unlike Rem. Ryuk had never seen Light this bad, yes, he had been with Light the longest however, Light had never been susceptible to nightmares until his almost demise.

"I'm fine Ryuk. Just a nightmare, nothing that can hurt me" Light said trying to reassure his long-term Shinigami. Ryuk nodded and approached the bed sitting on Light's free side wrapping one of his arms around Light too, copying what he saw Rem doing.

"We'll never let anything to happen to you Light" Ryuk promised as Light drifted back off to sleep wrapped in the arms of his best friends knowing that they would look out for him no matter what. Light didn't have another nightmare for the rest of the night.
