~Shiroi~Shinigami~ [Death Note]
Seeking the note of death,
Soon she cannot turn back anymore.
She shall remember everything once again.
Fourth Chapter
Earlier you had left the investigation room in hurry, leaving everyone else in there to wonder what happened to you as you just rushed out. The trust behind kira case suddenly hit you as you were thinking they way how he kills criminals with only face and name, which was very similar to the way how death gods do it. You had heard the rumors that death god may accidentally drop their note in human world and if human pick it up they can keep it and kira could be using death note to kill.
To prove yourself you took taxi back to your old mansion, where you had hidden your mother's notebook. You didn't really want to touch it but now you didn't have much of choice and you had already remembered most of the past. Running to the mansion's cellar you found old locked chest and opened it to find your mother's notebook still there. You picked it up but before you could open it to look inside you fell to the cold ground unconsciously.

It had been four hours already and Gina was nowhere to be seen. Her expression before she left was bothering you. She clearly realized something but you weren't sure what it was but for while you had felt strange like you were seen through.
''Are you okay ?'' L asked looking at you as he realized that you weren't listening what others were saying at all.
''...Oh sorry I was just thinking.'' You answered quickly so that you wouldn't raise L's suspicion on you even more.
''About what ?'' L asked.
''About Gina.'' You answered honestly as it didn't have anything suspicious.
''Oh... I have been wondering for a while, where do you two know each other ?'' L asked
''We met yesterday in shopping mall, why are you asking ?''
''Quite coincidence as she just came to city yesterday and you're both working in kira case.'' L stated suspecting that it wasn't coincidence at all.
''What are you trying to prove ? It's not like I even know anything about her.'' You said.
''...That's true.'' L agreed.
''Watari were you able to contact Gina ?'' L asked.
''No, her phone seems to be switched off.'' Watari answered while trying to call Gina.
Ryuk had been laughing behind you for a while but because you were with everyone else you weren't able to ask anything.
[Gina's pov]
You were still lying on cold floor, which was making you shiver but your legs didn't move so you couldn't get up but your hands did move and with them you picked up the death note, that dropped when you fell. You were right after all about kira but currently that didn't matter to you.
If only your memories were sealed inside death note, that would have been fine but it wasn't so. The real reason why this notebook was hidden wasn't what you remembered but something else and now you understood it. Before dying your father had sealed your shinigami powers away. Within the black blood there was unthinkable power, that you couldn't control when you were small. Probably you weren't even now able to control it, as you are hurt by the past without being able to face future, it would be too easy to the blood to take over your mind but you tried to control yourself so that it wouldn't take over your. our other blood had existence itself.
''Come on let me take over, why do you oppose when we are together at last ?'' Said familiar voice sending chills to your spine.
''You're only bloodthirsty murderer !'' You shouted out as answer.
''Did you forget, that you are too ?''She said in playful tone but you couldn't object. After all what she said was the trust. Tears silently fell down to the cold floor as your body was aching, because of the dark blood trying to take over and as you were recalling your old memories.
Back in old days you didn't know anything and wanted to kill those death gods who killed your close ones so you wanted to kill those death gods but the power within you ended up killing other than death gods too. You couldn't control it and it completely took over you until your father sealed it away with your bad memories.
Thinking about, it was good that you didn't tell anyone where you were going and were now alone in this mansion so that no one would be killed, if you went insane now. This whole mansion was your cage, because in your shinigami state you cannot leave from here, if you can't control yourself and you didn't have clue how to do it right now.
''Who do you want to kill now~~?'' voice asked in joyful voice.
''No one and could you just shut up or disappear ?'' You shouted.
''Do you really think that you can oppose me, I think not~~''She said stating the trust, which you couldn't object. You had to think way how to stay sane and fast. Or else you were in deep trouble. You were in deep thoughts and then you realized picture in the notebook remembering words that were once said for you. You smiled a little but then stopped and thought about the reason why you stayed in realm of living and said ''You are no longer needed.'' You whispered with icy voice as you realized it. You were no longer the weak human you once were so why would you fear yourself now ? You could control the blood within you as you had abandoned your human self completely, because you didn't want to be drowned in your past any longer, it didn't change anything.
''...you really are awakened then, I see.'' voice said and disappeared from your head. You sighed in relief looking at the picture in your hand of young boy, who once saved you. The picture had been in your mother's, no... in your death note all those years as you had been looking for it. It wasn't that you had quarter of death god's blood, more like you now only had quarter of human's blood inside you and that blood wasn't just any kind of blood death gods had but it was that shinigami's blood.

In the end Gina never returned, even though everyone had been waiting for her to come back. You had gotten little worried too if something happened to her but L and Watari seemed even more worried and kira case wasn't going anywhere this way.
''L, I got information that she took taxi back to that mansion.'' Watari said.
''Why ?'' L asked
''I don't know but according to driver she was muttering something about notebook.'' Watari answered and that shocked you. Did she know about death notes ? If she did then you would be in deep trouble as she was taking part in kira case investigation.
''No she won't say anything.'' Ryuk said laughing hysterically again making you ask why was he so sure about this but he kept quiet again. From the start there had been something weird about her. You had heard that until now she lived in old mansion all alone without contact to outside world but you wondered what was the reason behind that.
''Watari prepare car I'm going there.'' L ordered.
''Can I come too ? I'm worried about her as her friend.'' You said smiling sweetly even though that was lie. You wanted to know what notebook she was looking for.
''Sure.'' L said and so you three walked out from hotel into black car.
In your way to the mansion L and Watari were speaking about some pointless stuff related to sweets L wanted but you didn't listen them as you were more curious about Gina's earlier behavior.
After two hours you saw huge mansion in middle of forest. Watari drove inside mansion's courtyard, which was surrounded by old stonewall all around the mansion with only one big gate. The mansion itself looked old and abandoned making you wonder why Gina had wanted to come here as it was creepy and old.
Everyone stepped out of the car and walked rocky path toward the mansion's main doors. Courtyard was covered by wild roses as no one took care of them.
Watari opened the main door, making you jump as loud crack was heard from the old door. Unlike outside the mansion seemed very nice from inside. Like those old styled mansions with big red carpets and wide stairs. There was also old statues and big paintings next to walls. In middle of hall there were big windows with velvet red curtains going all the way to floor. Looking around you felt like some old noble, no you were the god itself.
[Gina's pov]
You sat on stairs waiting for others come to pick you up as you had gotten message that they will be coming to the mansion. You were now done with this place anyway. Slightly lowering your gaze you saw the same picture, which you had picked up earlier and smiled little thinking back but snapped out of your thoughts as you heard main door opening and some familiar people coming inside.
Yagami light was looking around like he stepped to other world and L too was still impressed by your family's mansion even thought he had been here once before. Watari was used to this place, because he was your father's old friend. So instead of gazing all around in awe he noticed you first as he came in.
You got up and merrily jumped stairs down, stopping in front of Watari. Now Raito and L noticing you too and Raito was first one to open his mouth.
''This mansion sure looks a lot nicer inside than outside but anyway. We were worried about you.'' Raito said while still gazing around but now that you knew who he really was, you weren't all that sure could you trust him anymore.
''Yes and you aren't first one to say so and Sorry. I guess, that I got little too into this detective game thing.'' You said with sweet smile.
''You call this game…'' Raito was about to shout as he was in shock. This time it seemed genuine. Well his father was police officer after all you thought making it a reason. As for the reason why he stopped was, because Watari had raised his hand in front of him so he quieted down. He was sharp…
''You don't need to say anything, Watari. Instead I have one question for you…'' You said while looking for the picture and as you found it from your pocket you raised the picture up so that only Watari saw it, his eyes widening as he realized who was in the picture. ''Is he alive and well ?'' You lastly asked with sad smile.
Watari just nodded, ''I see, you have regained your memories…'' He whispered silently so that only you and L heard, who was next to you. While light was closer to the main door.
I can't forget you and I want to run away, but…
Even if my wings are trapped by invisible shackles
Nevertheless, you're such a precious person to me that it's sad
