Now, ONWARD MY LITTLE REAPERS!

I stared daggers at the plate in front of me. Come on Ella, woman up, you can do this. Think of it as… as training; undercover training. If I was to convince people I was an average Japanese girl that had just moved into the area, I would have to eat… this stuff.

But I really didn't want to. My torn emotions were uncharacteristly clear upon my face as I stared down at the meal in front of me. Just… just start picking at it. I grabbed the chopsticks which were hell to use, and started eating the rice. It needed sugar on it badly.

The other Yagami family members had already begun eating like regular and I wanted to sigh as I raised another clump of rice into my mouth. I just wanted the dinner to be over.

I continued picking at the food for the next ten minutes, feeling ridiculously sick by the end of it. Worst meal EVER. Still, I smiled and set down the chopsticks. Sachiko-san sent me a reproving glance as she began taking the plates to the sink.

"Are you sure that's all you want?" The older woman asked hesitantly and I sent a small smiled, tugging on my bangs unconsciously. It seems my… 'ticks' still existed in the Death Note world.

"Yes, thank you for the meal." I said, faking gratefulness. Sayu rolled her eyes at me.

"Kaa-san, me and Risu-chan are going to go up to my room!" The excitable girl called, already tugging me up the stairs. I was amazed that she already adopted a pet name for me – I didn't understand it. I was awful with people my age – if I acted like myself, she'd probably hate me. That's… a really depressing though actually. I glanced behind me to find that Ku had disappeared for a while. I briefly wondered if he had gone to talk to Ryuk, but being pushing into a room with yellow walls brought me back to the present.

I stumbled on my ankle a bit, managing to catch myself before I fell. Sayu's room was… cute. Her walls were bright yellow with little bumblebee stickers on them. She had a dresser made of light colored wood with a mirror hung up behind it. Her bed was against the left wall, under a window with soft pink curtains. She had a desk to the other side that matched the dresser, and it had a couple picture frames on it along with a white desktop computer. On the open wall she had covered it with posters of anime shows, reality shows, pop idols, and pictures of what I assumed to be her friends and family.

Sayu bounded in, jumping onto her bed. I limped over, collapsing next to her. "Your rooms cute." I commented, tugging my bandages over my visible eye. I was beginning to get a headache, probably from still not being used to the use of only one eye. It screwed my vision up, which was annoying to say the least.

"Thanks. Hey, Risu-chan, can I ask you a question?" Sayu wondered and I felt the bed shifting slightly. I assumed she had sat up – there was a rather high chance of this.

"You just did." I pointed out with a smirk. She smacked my arm which I huffed at but didn't retaliate.

"Oh shut up. You know what I meant."

"Well, yeah, ask away."

"Why do you wear the bandage thing?" Sayu asked and I froze. Crap, my parents were dead, but Arisu's mom was alive. Make something up, come on!

"W-well… my dad died last year, in a car crash." I began, not having to make my voice go quieter. It did that on its own. "In the crash, he died on impact, and I made it out with only one blind eye. They screwed up fixing the tear in my eyelid though, and ended up stitching it up. It's actually really ugly." My voice took on an apathetic tone. I had the habit of distancing myself from the situation unless I'm alone.

If there was one think I hated, it was someone who cried at everything. Whenever I read books, if the heroine suddenly started breaking down every five seconds I chucked the book across the room. I HATED that. I could count on one hand how many people had seen me cry – only one of them still alive at this point. How morbid.

"Can… can I see?" Sayu asked, sounding nervous but curious at the same time. Well, I had been expecting that. I guess there wasn't any harm in showing her… I tugged the fabric down around my neck and scowled when Sayu gasped.

I glanced to the side, catching my reflection in the mirror. I hated, hated my eye. Wide stitches came down from right below my eyebrow to below my eye, making it look like a grotesque version of a wink. I still had a wide, white scar right below my eye to my chin in addition. It had still been pink and not completely healed upon leaving my sector, but somehow coming to the Death Note world had turned it into a scar. I know it sounds vain, and I really never cared about what people thought about me, but I was the type to hide in the shadows, observe everything from a distance. I learned more that way.

I couldn't do that anymore. I started wearing the bandage after my first experience shopping after the accident. People would stop and stare and I despised it. I wasn't a science experiment or a criminal – they had no right to judge me. I could see it; I knew that's what they were doing.

"I'm sorry." Sayu said. We spent a moment in silence before Sayu bounded up again. "So, I say we set you up with Light!"

"Wait, what?" I sputtered. "I don't like him!"

"I HAVE A PLAN! LET'S GO!" The hyper girl said, blatantly ignoring me as she grabbed my arm and a notebook off her desk.

"Let me goo!" I protested, wriggling madly as I quickly limped with her. She walked across the hall, knocking on the door before walking in.

"Aniki? Can you help us with homework?" Sayu asked. I noticed Ku hanging in the edge of the room, laughing at something, I could only assume it was Ryuk. Light was staring at us – no, me, and I realized why. Tugging the bandages hurriedly over my eye, I did the opposite of what I wanted to, and looked at my feet.

Oh what I wouldn't give to kick him in the soft spot just this one time. Just once.

"Oh, sure! I didn't know Arisu-san went to your school." Light said lightly. Hehe, unintentional pun, yet still fun. Oh I would have so much fun with his name.

"Oh, erm… I don't know if she does. Risu-chan, where do you go to school?" Sayu asked sheepishly, earning a bemused look from her older brother.

Oh, well, I'm a child prodigy that graduated school at the age of thirteen and am already being offered scholarships from Harvard and Yale… oh wait; I'm a simple-minded Japanese girl. Damn.

"Well, my and my mom just moved here, so I haven't been enrolled anywhere yet." I said, looking up shyly. Oh how I hated acting like this… but it was worth it. I was going to save L, Mello, Matt, and the task force. I would make sure of that.

"YOU SHOULD COME TO MY SCHOOL!" Sayu cheered, jumping up and down rapidly. Light shook his head at her, but I noticed a small smile tugging at his lips.

"Inside voices Imouto." He reprimanded lightly (Hehe), and Sayu pouted before smiling mischievously. Oh hell no, that wasn't good.

"Don't you dare-" I began before I was forcefully pushed into Light's arms. He caught me bridal-style and I blushed angrily as Sayu squealed.

"AWW KAWAII!" Say cooed. My eyes flashed dangerously as I wriggled out of Light's arms, killer intent leaking out of me.

"Sayu-chan… I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!" I said, chasing after her as she made a dash for the stairs. I ignored the pain in my ankle as I raced after her. That little…little… I DIDN'T LIKE THAT INSANE MASS MURDERER!

"GAH! I'M SORRY RISU-CHAN!" She yelled over her shoulder. Sachiko-san looked at us as we ran around the living room.

"What on earth–" She mused, and eyebrow raised. Me and Sayu circled the sofa and my eyes flashed dangerously as she attempted to escape up the stairs again.

"GET BACK HERE YOU LITTLE TWAT!" I yelled, chasing her again. She had run into Light's room again and was currently cowering behind the room's owner.

"...Erm." The brunette said, looking awkward.

And I used to think my life was boring.


Props to whoever guessed right XD Please excuse the mild Light bashing. Ella reaaaaally hates him... x-x. But this may change later ^^ I don't know yet. Ohhoho.
