"Kira's hostages?!" Matsuda, Aizawa, Ukita, and Tensei all shouted simultaneously. Dekani and Ryuzaki sat quietly and intently.
The broadcast continued. "There is no doubt that the four video tapes mailed to the director of this show four days ago are real."
The man shifted in his seat. "In the first tape, the voice predicted the death of two arrested criminals; Seichi Machbia and Seiji Machbia. Later as predicted in the tape, they died of heart failure last night at 7:00 p.m."
Dekani nodded. Sounds about right.
"Furthermore he instructed us to broadcast the second tape today at 5:59 p.m."
He held up the tape so the viewers could see it.
"We have not watched it ourselves but the tape should validate the other tapes. As well as Kira's message to the world."
The man on the T.V placed the tape in the VCR.
Ukita looked worried, "Th..This is a joke, right?"
Dekani looked at L. He nodded. This doesn't seem like something Kira would do. She turned her attention back to the screen.
"It is now 5:59, the broadcast will now begin."
The camera zoomed in on the TV screen beside the broadcaster. It went dark, then all of the sudden white filled the screen with fuzzy letter spelling Kira in the middle.
"I am Kira."
Dekani rested her elbows on her knees. The voice is muffled very poorly; most likely machine muffled. An the lettering looks hand written. It seems as if it was video on a home recording system. A little to low tech and loud for Kira. Dekani bit her lip. Kira also seems to be using the same font as L. Definitely not Lights style.
Kira continued, "Please change the channel to Tayiou TV. The new anchor will die of a heart attack at exactly 6:00 p.m."
Dekani snatched the remote from Watari's hand and changed the channel to Tayiou TV.
A man was lying dead on the table in between two female reporters whose faces bore the look of shock and horror. She quickly changed the channel back.
L turned to Watari, "Please move one...no, two more televisions into this room."
Watari nodded and quickly ran to retrieve two more TV's.
Kira continued, "That was the punishment for always speaking cynical terms against me on television."
Dekani chuckled silently to herself.
"Surely one person is not enough to prove my identity, so I will take another victim. The target is another commentator on the same network who always opposes my actions."
Dekani glanced at the rest of the task force. Their faces held the looks of fear, except for Ryuzaki.
"Channel 24, Dekani!" L ordered.
"Already there." Dekani replied as she pointed to the TV.
A man lay dead in the arms of another man. Everyone in the studio were in a panic.
Ryuzaki stared at the TV screen. "Kira is directly manipulating the mind of the public." He looked over at Dekani for approval.
Dekani nodded. "That may be troublesome." She looked at Tensei and the rest of the task force. "We need to stop the broadcast asap!"
Matsuda scrambled for the phone, "What is the number for Sakura TV?!"
He quickly reached for the phone book and frantically flipped the pages. Once he found it, Matsuda yanked the phone off the hook and dialed the number.
"All the lines are busy!"
The Kira broadcast continued. Dekani looked over at Aizawa who was on his cell phone.
"My contact in the station turned his cell phone off!"
The twins looked at each other. They both new what they were going to have to do.
All of the sudden Ukita sprinted towards the door. "Arrgh! I'll go stop them myself!"
"No...Ukita-san!" The door slammed before Tensei could stop him.
"I do not mean to kill innocent people." Kira continued. "I abhor evil and defend justice. The police do not have to be my enemies. They can be my allies!"
L started to bite his thumb nail even harder. Dekani rubbed her brow.
"Ryuzaki, can we get surveillance on the entrance to Sakura TV?"
He shook his head, "Not right now."
Dekani clenched her fist.
Tensei looked at Dekani; she couldn't take it any longer.
"Ukita-san is going to die if he goes there!" She grabbed for the key chain that was hanging out of Watari's pocket. Watari tried to pulled away but was too slow. Tensei swiped the keys out of the pocket and ran out the door.
"Tensei!" Dekani desperately tried to call Tensei back but it was no good.
The broadcast still continued. "I wish a world without crime. As long as no one tries to oppose me no one else will die."
Dekani started to bite her finger. Tensei didn't even grab a sweater with a hood! Dekani had to go after her! She stood up.
"Ryuzaki, is there another vehicle available?" she asked with great urgency in her voice.
Ryuzaki looked at Watari. Watari nodded and tossed her another pair of keys.
"Dekani."
Dekani turned towards L.
"There is a small TV in the car. Please turn it on."
Dekani acknowledged Ryuzaki with a quick wave and ran out the door.
She ran at full speed down to the Black Cadillac Esc-lade that she had the pleasure of riding in when her and Ryuzaki were looking for Tensei. She whipped the door open, plugged the keys into the ignition and fired the vehicle up. Dekani spun a couple of dials that were connected to the small TV and tuned into Sakura TV. Then as quickly as she could Dekani placed the Cadillac into gear and drove out of the parking lot.
Dekani sped through the traffic towards the Sakura TV headquarters.
"...we are now live from the front of the entrance of Sakura TV."
Dekani glanced down. She gasp, although this was expected. Ukita was lying dead in front of the entrance. All of the sudden Tensei's face popped up on the TV screen.
Dekani groaned. Tensei, you idiot! She shut off the TV and looked up. The main entrance was just ahead. She spun the car into a parallel park; causing a few horns to honk but she didn't care. Dekani flipped her hoodie around her head and ran out of the vehicle.
Tensei was flopped over Ukita's body spilling up blood. Dekani tighten up her hood and ran towards them. She grabbed Tensei's arm and pushed her off of Ukita. She reached for the gun in his coat and smashed the glass that separated the Sakura headquarters and them.
"Sorry Tensei." She whispered as she ran inside the building; loaded gun in hand.
"St...Stop!" a night guard sputtered out as Dekani walked in.
Dekani cocked to gun, "Where's the studio that is broadcasting the Kira tapes?!"
The night guard was terrified. "Se..second floor, studio G-6!"
Dekani smirked. "Thanks." She hit the guard across the head and knocked him out.
She sprinted up the stairs toward the second floor; taking two steps at a time.
Once out in the hallway. Dekani frantically looked for door that read G-6; it was at the end of the hall.
Dekani kicked the door open, almost removing it from it's hinges.
"Stop this broadcast immediately!"
A fairly large man with big glass, and wearing a leather jacket gave her a passive glance.
"What makes you the boss?"
She place the loaded gun to the mans head, "This does."
"Whoa wait a minute miss! If we stop this broadcast Kira will kill everyone hear!"
"Shut up!" Dekani was annoyed, "You all might be dead even before Kira can get hold of your name if you don't stop this broadcast!"
"Uhh..." a small intimidated voice piped up from behind, "It's already finish."
Dekani pulled the trigger. The whole studio went dead silence. There was a round bullet hole in one of the screens.
"Give me to tapes."
There was no answer, nor was there any movement.
"Give me the tapes!"
The large man scrambled about the table trying to retrieve the tapes. Dekani tapped her foot impatiently.
"Here!" he threw the tapes over to Dekani. She looked down at the tapes.
"Give me all the copies as well and the envelope they came in."
"What do you mean?"
Dekani fired another bullet. This time just missing the mans head.
He jumped. "Right the copies."
He rustled through the papers pulling out four more tapes.
Dekani grinned, "Thanks." With that she walked out of the studio.
Once she was in the main lobby of the building, Dekani reached for her cellphone and dialed L's cellphone number.
"Hello."
"Ryuzaki, I got the tapes." she paused to catch her breath. "But I'm sorry I didn't stop the broadcast in time."
"Thats okay Dekani, thank you."
L's voice muffled as he talked to the task force.
"Dekani you may leave the building. The police have it covered from all sides."
"Okay, I'll grab Tensei and head back...Ryuzaki?"
There was silence at the other end of the line.
