After the Ceremony Kyou told Light that she was going to go home, but she was really on her way to the Task Force Headquarters. That's how she had known L. She was helping the Task Force; of course she always led them away from Light.
As she was walking she felt a tap on her shoulder when she turned around she saw her best friend, Mitsukai. Kyou smiled at her and Mitsukai smiled back.
"Kyou…" Mitsukai began. Kyou looked over to her, but Mitsukai just stared forward like she often did, she was very intelligent, but was always off in her own world.
"Did you know that there has been a shinigami following Light for a while now?" After she finished her sentence Mitsukai finally turned to Kyou who just shook her head.
"I wasn't aware…" She answered.
'Damn it! I forgot about Mitsukai's physic powers! She can see Ryuk!' Kyou screamed in her head.
"I've got to get going okay?" Kyou asked. Mitsukai nodded and Kyou hurried the rest of the way to the Task Force.
"You made it, Kyou!" One of the agents said as she walked in the room.
"Well, duh I made it." Kyou answered as she threw her backpack in an empty chair. She took a seat in another one. She sat with both of her legs crossed under her on top of the cushion.
"Mr. Yagami, you should know me better then not showing up when I said I would." She smiled. The man who she had call Mr. Yagami was Light's dad.
"I knew you'd come." A voice said walking into the door.
"Well, of course you did Ryuzaki." Kyou answered turning to L, who here was known as Ryuzaki.
He took a seat in the chair next to her and turned on the T.V in front of them, "Look at these clips." He said.
Kyou watched the clips; they were more audio, from a second Kira. The weird thing was L didn't tell her they were from a second Kira, but she knew they were because Light hadn't told her about sending anything out to Sakura T.V.
"What do you make of it?" L asked her after she had watched the clip.
"Second Kira…" Kyou said calmly.
"Really, why do you think that?" L asked her.
She rolled her eyes and turned to him, "Well, duh! Ryuzaki, the first Kira wouldn't need to prove himself and even if he did by killing those innocent people he would be going against what he did before, which was only kill criminals." She answered.
L nodded his head, "She's clear now…" He said.
Kyou's eyes widened, "You thought I was Kira?" She asked.
L nodded, "Not anymore." He said.
She raised an eyebrow and huffed as she turned back around in her chair.
"Let us talk alone everyone." L said and the other agents left the room. He went and sat in the chair across from her and looked at her, she just glared at him.
"Come on Kyou. I said you were cleared." L said trying to make things better.
"That doesn't mean you didn't suspect me." She answered. L shrugged.
"L! You know my parent gave their lives helping you! I want to follow in their footsteps! Why would I commit such a crime?" She screamed at him then dropped her gaze to the ground. "I'm sorry." She said quietly. She felt a hand under her chin and let it lead her face up; she was looking into L's eyes.
"I know what your parents did for me. I barley suspected you; it was a 2 thing. I trust you and you have to trust me when I say: We were only being precautious." Kyou nodded and L dropped his hand from her face.
"You know who I ran into today?" He asked. Kyou was still looking to him with her deep purple eyes.
"Mitsukai Tsubasa." L said calmly.
Kyou was confused, "You met my best friend?" She asked. It was L's turn to look confused.
"Mitsukai was my best friend when we were little. She's your best friend?" He asked.
Kyou nodded, "We met in our first year of Junior High. She's been there for me ever since. Even when my parents were gone." She said and smiled.
L smiled back, "She's a good person." He said.
Kyou nodded, "She sure is."
"Ryuzaki!" One of the agents said as they all re-entered the room.
"Yeah, of course you can all come back in…" L said as he stood up from the chair he was in and walked over to them.
"My apologizes…" The agent said giving a bow.
L just brushed it off, "It's all right." He said. "What do you need Matsuda?" He finished.
Matsuda nodded, "Ryuzaki, Light's here." Matsuda said sounding worried.
"So, let him in." L shrugged.
"What about Kyou-chan? Light doesn't know you're here right?" Matsuda said turning to her.
Kyou shook her head, "No, but what does it matter. He won't care." She said and walked over and opened the door herself.
"Hi Light." She smiled and gave him a kiss on the cheek.
He smiled back, "What are you doing here?" He asked as he walked inside.
"I work on the Kira case. Have been since they asked me. Just before they met Ryuzaki over there." She answered and pointed to L.
"Hey Light!" A high pitched voice said. A blond girl came in the door and hugged Light.
"Who's this?" Kyou asked.
"I'm Light's girl…" She started, but Light butt in.
"Friend. She's a friend." He said and pried her off and held Kyou around the waist and gave her a kiss on the lips.
"Love you." He said and smiled at her.
She smiled too and said, "Love you more." Then gave him another light kiss and pulled away.
"Got to go Ryuzaki. That cool?" Kyou asked turning to L, but he was gone.
"Just go." Mr. Yagami said. Kyou smiled her warm smile at him and left with Light's arm around her waist.
"Uh… Light… I thought I was your girlfriend!" The blond girl screamed as she ran after the two.
Kyou smirked, "Nope. I am. You heard him, he loves me." She smiled.
The blond girl stuck her tongue out at Kyou who just glared at her in the way she had where it felt like she was going to eat you.
"I'm Misa, by the way." The blond girl said.
"Misa, leave." Light instructed.
"Fine, but remember… I have the eyes and if you're not careful she will end up dead." Misa tried to whisper to Light, but Kyou heard.
"Bye Light! Bye Kyou-kou Ikamati." She finished bitterly than walked off.
"How'd she… she has a death note? And the eyes?" Kyou asked turning to Light.
He sighed, "I hate how you're so smart…" He murmured.
"Light! I don't want to die! Not like that at least…" Kyou said. "We're in to deep for you to just leave now, but I won't let her hurt you. Or she'll die." He promised giving her shoulders a tight squeeze.
Kyou smiled slightly and nodded, "Okay, I trust you… I'm gonna go home now." With that she gave Light as kiss on the cheek and set off towards home.
When she got home to her small apartment she sighed and tossed her bag in a chair in the corner and turned on the news.
"Now Camille will interview Misa-Misa, the very popular model and upcoming movie star." The news reporter said then it flashed to a picture of the blond girl from earlier that had claimed to be Light's girlfriend and a woman in a formal business women suit with brown shoulder length hair.
"Model and movie star my ass." Kyou muttered to herself as she watched the reporter ask questions and Misa answer them in much conceded ways.
"Do you have anyone special? I'm sure lots of guys are hoping that's a no." The interviewer asked then winked at the camera.
"Sorry to those boys…" Misa began, but Kyou yelled,
"Liar!" And switched the channels before she heard anything else. Then she just turned the T.V off altogether when she heard a knock on her door.
She sighed as she walked over and opened it up, "Oh hey Mitsukai. Wanna come in?" She asked her best friend who stood in the door.
Mitsukai nodded and after she took off her shoes and joined Kyou in the kitchen she silently held up one of her drawings.
She had dreams and drew what she saw; this one was a picture of Light standing by Misa with Ryuk and another shinigami behind them.
'That must be Misa's shinigami…' Kyou thought as she answered,
"That's good Mitsukai. You should be an artist."
Mitsukai opened her mouth to say something, but the microwave beeped and Kyou walked over to it glad to leave before Mitsukai could say something.
It was too good to be true though because as soon as she sat down Mitsukai began to start where she left off, "You know this is from a dream of mine." She said firmly.
Kyou nodded, avoiding eye contact as she slurped down some delicious, ramen in a cup.
"I've also been having dreams about you Kyou…" Mitsukai said and Kyou looked at her with a couple noodles still hanging from her mouth.
"You havf?" She asked then slurped down the noodles.
"Like what?" She asked then grabbed her coke and took a sip.
"I know you work with L on the Kira case. I know you're not telling me something and there's something going on between you and Light." She answered.
Kyou shook her head, "No use lying now… I do work with L. I'm not telling you something, I don't think I can tell you and there is something going on between me and Light or someone…" She answered and Mitsukai nodded,
"It's Misa." She said.
Kyou nodded, "It is, ask Light to tell you what I'm not. Only he can decide that. Sorry."
Kyou answered. Mitsukai nodded then got up and helped herself to a coke.
"So you and L were friends when you were younger?" Kyou asked when Mitsukai sat back down.
"Yeah, how'd you know?" She asked as her coke opened.
"He told me when I saw him today." Kyou answered with a smiled then took another sip of her coke.
