A/N:
Thank you to everyone who reviewed!
Anyhow, after rereading Chapter One, I noticed just how much it sucked. I'll try to improve, so please don't hurt me. L is probably really OOC in this story, but that's just because he's always been kind of a hard character for me to totally understand, even though he was one of my favorites.
I realize that I forgot the disclaimer in the first chapter, but it should be easy to tell from my poor writing that I don't own Death Note or Bleach.
I wandered through the streets, taking care to avoid running into people. I was unsure if they would actually be able to run into me, considering that they didn't seem to see me, but I did not feel like taking any chances. Watching the people walking around, I could feel my powerful hunger growing.
'No.' I thought. 'I will not touch these people. I may have... eaten... that man that was attacking me, but I have not completely lost my humanity.'
I shuddered a little. 'Not like Light.'
My stomach only responded with a loud growl.
After spending the remainder of the day simply wandering around with nothing to do, it was finally dark. I was alone in front of what appeared to be my favorite cafe. I stared longingly through the windows, and at the delicious sugary confections within.
"..."
I knew fully well that no matter how delicious they were, the treats wouldn't help me now. I had already tried stealing a bit of birthday cake from a small child's party. It tasted good, but the eating child probably would've done much more good than eating the cake.
Turning around, I headed back the way I had come...
...And nearly walked right into a monster.
I suppose this thing was no different from me. It had the same white mask-like thing on it's face, and it certainly looked like the kind of thing that would enjoy eating humans.
...Though I still like to think that I looked cooler.
"Eh? Who the hell are you?" The thing asked, clearly not too happy about my presence.
"...Why do you wish to know?" I tried to walk away, but my... new acquaintance didn't seem to happy with the idea of my leaving.
Apparently my attempt at being tough annoyed it. I moved my head just in time to avoid being bit in half by it's row of double teeth.
"...That wasn't very polite." I remarked, still dodging the thing's teeth.
This only seemed to anger it further.
"Watch your mouth! If you didn't keep moving around, I'd kill you in a second!" It growled, still trying to kill me. Huh. This guy really needed to work on his anger problems. I dodged another blow as it continued talking.
"Stop moving around, you little rat! I swear, once I get my claws on you, I'll rip you to shreds! You can't keep doing this forever!"
"If you get your claws on me. You seem to be a little too slow to actually land a blow." I was getting tired of all this moving around. Even if my opponent's intelligence was lacking, he was right about one thing. I couldn't keep this up. Even as I thought that, I faltered, and he was able to score a blow right in my face. Which, actually, didn't hurt all that much. It was probably because of the mask.
Anyway, after he managed to hit me once, a swift kick to his face prevented him from saying anything. It seemed that I still knew Capoeira. It didn't take much longer for me to finish the fight. A few more kicks, with the added bonus of razor sharp claws, my opponent soon turned and fled.
I don't know why, but I decided to follow him. At least, until he seemed to disappear right into a wall. I poked the wall with a claw. It felt solid to me.
"Wow! You really can't figure it out?? You must be really dumb." A loud, scratchy voice behind me made me jump a little.
"...Actually, I have one of the highest IQ scores in history." I slowly turned around to find another creature like the one before. Only, this one seemed slightly friendlier.
"Whatever. That's not gonna help you now. If you run around shoutin' that ta everyone, you'll just get called a pansy and then you'll get eaten." The creature yawned as if it was bored simply talking to me.
"Eaten..?" Apparently these things have no problem with eating their own, as well as humans.
"Yeah. Eaten. Anyways, you're gonna have a tough time if you can't even figure out how ta get home."
"...Home?" I thought about this. What did he mean by home? For me, home had always just been whatever hotel I was staying in at the time.
The thing looked at me strangely. "Y'know, Hueco Mundo."
When he saw just how little I knew about all of this, he looked ready to ditch me right there.
"I feel kind of bad for you. Fine, then. Just concentrate. Try to find your home."
I tried. It really didn't work. In the end, the other creature just got as angry as the first one, and attacked. I beat this one back even faster than the first, now that I had the hang of fighting. He, too, turned away and tried to escape into wherever they were all going.
This time I was ready. I bit down on one of his back legs, hard. I wound up being pulled into some dark other world with him.
And when I opened my eyes, all I saw was sand.
I was all alone again. I could see no sign of either of the creatures that attacked me, and I was hungrier than ever.
"I really wish I had eaten those sweets while I had the chance..." I growled to myself.
Before I could do much else, I heard the screech of another one of the things that seemed so fond of trying to bite me in two. This was getting old very quickly. I turned around, ready to beat this one back as well, when I saw what this one looked like. It resembled a Shinigami more than anything else I had seen since I had died.
Not only that, but it had his eyes. Those same eyes that I saw in my final moments. The eyes of a killer named Light Yagami.
I really hoped that was okay. Once again, I appreciate all comments. I would still like as much constructive criticism as possible, because I know I'm not perfect or wonderful like a lot of writers on here.
Thanks again for reading.
