Disclaimer: I do not own Death Note.
And the story continues... enjoy :D
The next few days were extremely weird for Hikari, Ryuga wasn't at school. That was no surprise considering that he was L, but Light was not at school, either. Something wasn't right; Light would have called her if he was sick. This was not like him at all. She was starting to worry. The day at school went by normally with nothing extremely odd happening except that the murders had stopped. They had stopped with no one dying for days.
'Was Kira captured? That would explain Light's disappearance from school . . . I wonder,' she asked herself as she walked home, Kaito flying above her, looking around for some junk food to eat. He flew down, stopping before her.
'Maybe I should contact L about Light's absence—no, stupid idea, Hikari! Then L will know for sure that Light is Kira . . . but honestly is that a bad thing? It would end Kira's reign, but my life would be in danger. After all, Light would assume I revealed it. However, that all depends on if he has the Death Note with him,' she thought, wondering if this was the time to make her move. Whether she was mad with L or not, she would help stop Kira.
"Hey! Hikari?" No answer, "Hello! Hikari! I'm talking to you," he said trying to get her to answer. She looked up at him.
"Hmm, oh sorry, Kaito, what is it?" she asked in a whisper.
"Can we please get some more junk food, I'm starving," he told her. She sighed and shook her head.
"You know, Kaito, if you keep eating all this junk you're going to get fat," she explained.
"So, I can sleep it off," he told her, crossing his arms.
She laughed, "Sure you can. Alright, fine, but next time you're going to have to make due with the food I have at home," she told him.
"But, all of that stuff is healthy . . . it will kill me!" he replied.
"Kaito, healthy foods aren't gonna kill you, after all, you already told me you couldn't die, remember?" she reminded him. He thought for a moment and remembered saying that when they first met.
"Oh, right," he sighed, "ok, I guess," he responded.
After stopping by the small corner store, Hikari finally made it home. She walked inside and stretched after placing her satchel on the floor, "Feels great to be home," she said. Suddenly, the telephone began to ring, "Hmm, wonder who that is?" she asked, making her way towards the phone in the kitchen.
"Hello--oh it's you," she said, knowing the voice. "Yeah, I'm listening . . . what? Uh, I-I guess . . . sure . . . ok . . . bye" she said and hung up the phone.
"Who was that?" Kaito asked, curiously as he opened a bag of chips.
"It was L . . . he needs to speak to me in person . . ."
"Well, are you going?" he asked.
"Do I have a choice?" Kaito shrugged. She thought about it for a moment then walked into her bedroom. She grabbed the Death Note and hid it, just incase someone searched her home while she was gone. "Ok, let's go, Kaito," she said.
"Can I at least eat first?" he asked, flopping down on the couch.
She sighed and turned to him, "Fine, but clean up whatever mess you make, besides I can't get to where L is anyway, so I'm going to have to wait for that car to get here," she said. Kaito happily ate his snacks, devouring everything in the bag. Belching after he was finished, he threw away the empty containers.
"Disgusting," she said to him, rubbing her temples. Her attention went to the door when she heard a knock. She rose to her feet and walked over to the door, answering it. It was the elderly man, Watari.
Without a word, Hikari stepped inside the car. She sat there staring out the window as her hectic mind wondered just what L wanted now.
