Ok so here's chapter two.
I literally wrote this ten minutes after I finished chapter one so I have no clue whether this whole thing is worth it.
Then I remembered that there is no material reward for this AT ALL
Ok here we go
MUSIC FOR THIS CHAPTER: watch?v=OaP0w0-AmdU
Truth
One week later…
Sayu Yagami heard a knock on the door. "Mom! Someone's at the door!"
Her mother, Sachiko, walked calmly to the door and opened it, revealing a nervous Touta Matsuda.
"Mr. Matsuda! What a pleasant surprise!"
Sayu poked her head out from the stairwell. "Hey, Matsuda!'
Matsuda blushed red and waved to her.
Sachiko peered out of the door, looking around. "I see you didn't bring Light with you. You all must be so busy with the Kira investigation."
Beads of sweat rolled down Matsuda's face. "U-um, Mrs. Yagami, that's actually what I'm here to speak with you about."
"Oh?" Sayu said inquisitively.
"May I come in?" Matsuda asked.
"Of course. I'll make us some tea."
When the tea was ready, they gathered around their sofa.
"U-um, the Task Force gave me this video to show you." He said, holding up a DVD.
Sayu laughed lightheartedly. "Sure! I'll pop it in".
The tape started rolling. Matsuda fidgeted in his seat while Sachiko and Sayu leaned forward excitedly.
A blank white screen showed. "Are you sure this is the tape?" Sayu asked.
"Y-yes", he managed to say.
A Wedding Text BT/Clerestory SSK font capital "N" appeared on the screen.
"Greetings, Mrs. Yagami. My name is Near. I am an associate of the task force."
"Whoa! This is so exciting!" Sayu squealed
"I wanted you to be the first to know that as of one week ago, on January 28th, we succeeded in identifying and incapacitating the mass murderer known as Kira"
Matsuda looked down.
"Thank God", whispered Sachiko.
Near paused.
"I was initially not going to reveal this information to anyone, but I have decided that you and your family have a right to know, more than anyone. I want you to know that both me and my predecessor suspected that the true identity of the name I am about to say was actually Kira."
Sayu leaned forward.
"The identity of Kira…
was your son, Light Yagami"
Everything stood still. Near made no noise. Matsuda shook his head. Sayu's and Sachiko's eyes widened and Sayu's mouth fell open.
She turned to Matsuda.
"M-Matsuda… What is this? Who the hell is this Near? Is this your idea of some sick joke? This never happened, did it? DID IT?!"
Matsuda hollowly pointed to the T.V.
Near continued.
"He had been Kira since the beginning. I suspect he has been lying to you and your family for all of six years."
Sayu was shaking now, tears were starting to form in her eyes. "No... how... Light..."
Near chimed in again, "We have compiled solid evidence of your son's method of killing, and of his killings. For your own safety, I will not share those with you."
Now Sachiko turned to face Matsuda. "Matsuda."
"Where is Light right now?"
Matsuda simply looked down again.
"Last week I met him for the first time in an abandoned warehouse on Daikoku Pier. It was then that he and an associate attempted to have me, my men, and the entire Task Force killed. I foresaw his plan and prevented this, proving he was in fact Kira during the process."
"Mrs. Yagami…" Near spoke.
"I'm afraid that in the end, your son was overtaken by the same evil powers that transformed him into a killer."
Sayu muttered, "no…"
Near paused, and cleared his throat.
"Light Yagami is dead. He died exactly a week ago. You have my upmost condolences"
Sachiko collapsed immediately. Matsuda immediately ran over to her.
"It's okay, Sayu, she just faint-" he paused
Tears were streaming down Sayu's face.
"S-Sayu?" Matsuda stuttered.
She whispered to Matsuda, "I will deal with my mother. Get the hell out of my house."
Matsuda stood and bowed his head.
"I'm so sorr-"
"GET THE HELL OUT!"
Matsuda fell back, frightened, but then stood, head still bowed, and walked out the door, dropping a note on the table as he left.
Sayu sat and cried until her mother woke up.
Sayu then read the note, sniffling.
Private Funeral: 7pm, Friday. Only if you want to. Our sincerest condolences.
-The Task Force
Matsuda drove back to the NPA headquarters. He sulked upstairs and sunk into his chair at his desk, worn out from the events of the day and not looking forward to the pile of wrap-up paperwork for the Kira case that Aizawa had assigned him.
Then his phone started ringing.
"Mada riaru to idearu no hazama
ni ite gisei no kase ni ashi wo toraretemo" his ringtone played until he answered with a "BEEP!"
"M-Mr. Matsuda?"
Matsuda's eyes went wide. "Sayu! Are you okay?"
He heard a sniff over the phone. "No. Of course we aren't."
Shoot, Matsuda thought. "Oh, uh, yeah, sorry. Guess I'm an idiot sometimes."
Sayu giggled somberly over the line. "Try all the time."
Matsuda chuckled, blushing. "Yeah…"
"Matsuda?"
"Yeah?"
"Um, the reason I called. My mom and I" Sayu hesitated
"We'll come to the funeral."
Eh. A bit longer this time. I like where my chapter breaks are and all, but I just need to put more meat in the sandwich, so to speak.
Got any brain cells left? Use them to review this piece of crap story!
