If DeathNote didn't happen…
Matt and Mello England 03:00am –
Matt woke in his sleep, he felt a lump digging into his back. It had to be Mello, he stopped and yawned, he then remembered he was on the sofa and rolled off by mistake. He was now wide awake and he stood and sniffed, the air had a smoky quality, which ay first Matt found very inviting. He had the chain smoking to thank for that. He then noticed the air was murky, and then it all added up. The house was on fire! He stumbled back to the sofa and shook Mello awake, "Not now Matt" he groaned, "Yes now, we need to get out" Matt said panicking as he saw the first orange bursts of fire. Mello sniffed and shot up, as they both tried to get through the other door, there was an explosion that sent them both flying back. A wood splitting noise echoed through what was left of their home. "Is anyone in there?" someone called, "In here" Matt yelled back, inhaling more deadly smoke. A single yellow suited fireman ran through the fire towards Matt, he grabbed him and Mello followed them closely. Matt and the fireman were soon outside, he looked around the crowds but Mello was no where to be seen, "Wait! My fiancé is in there!" Matt yelled fighting the grip of the civil worker, "We'll go back inside to look for her!" he called back, as he ran back toward the house, "HIM!" Matt yelled the correction…
Light, Misa and Matsuda Japan 12:00am–
Light sat in his office, the business card between his fingers. Matsuda stared at him from across the desk, "Fine, I'll do it" he said picking up the receiver, he looked at the card closely and copied the number, it rang three times. The World, filled the back seat of the car, Misa went to her bag and answered her phone, "Hello?" she asked, "Yes hello, I'm the man you gave the number to, in the grocers" Light replied, on the other end of the phone, Misa smiled, "Oh hello, man of mystery" she chimed, Light sniggered, "I could say the same about you, I mean, are you really…?" Misa but in,
"Misa Amane? Yes I am" she said, down the phone,
"Oh wow erm hi" Misa laughed,
"Hi, and you are?" she asked,
"Oh my name is Light, Light Yagami" he replied,
"And what do you do ?" she asked,
"I'm in the NPA" he replied, Matsuda stared at Light across the desk his mouth wide open, the phone was on speaker, and Light was defiantly talking to Misa Amane. "What a score Light!" he whispered, Light frowned at him but listened to Misa. "But any way Light, I was wondering if you'd join me for dinner?"
"Oh wow, really?" he asked, Misa laughed,
"Yes silly, from what I saw of you, you're a very attractive man, I'd like to get to know you better" Misa replied, "And I know I'd be in safe hands if you work for the NPA, safe strong hands" Misa whispered, Matsuda's mouth lowered even further, "Do it!" he hissed,
"Okay, that would be great, when and where?" he asked,
"The university campus not far from the NPA building has a delightful little café" Misa replied, "I know, I went to the university" Light laughed,
"Great so you know it! How about 09:00pm?" she asked,
"Sounds great, see you then!" Light smiled,
"Bye" Misa hung up,
"Light! You've got to let me be your wing man on this!" Matsuda laughed,
"No way, any one but you" Light laughed,
"You wouldn't be going on this date if I hadn't told you to call the number" Matsuda complained, Light sighed, "Fine, but sit at a different table, and don't make contact with us, oh, and don't get to star struck" Light said standing,
"I'll invite Sayu as a cover up, we haven't been out a lot recently in fear of your father finding out, but I guess he's seen the worst, so what harm can it do?" Matsuda laughed.
