Chapter 2: Misa the Shredder
XXX
Surprise – surprise – the person who opened the door with a gentle smile on their face had completely drained all color on his face by the next few seconds as soon as he caught a glance at her.
"Amane, Misa," the elderly man dragged out still agape at the idol being at his doorsteps – the very idol from a certain late detective's notes as who exactly was to the 2nd Kira.
Misa countered that tension with a bright bubbling hello as she waved one hand up at him giggling. The creases in the man's forehead seemed to vanish away then as his suspicions dropped away in an instant to her act – or so she assumed for the time being. "T-to what does a place like this owe to a most r-recognized idol such as yourself?"
"Well," Misa began poking at her cheek, "Misa-Misa just came to have a little bitty chit-chat with the man who grew up alongside of a certain detective named L Lawliet." The elder man swallowed heavily and fumbled the door knob in his hands.
"S-Sorry but Watari-san is no longer—"
"We both know Misa-Misa isn't talking about Watari-san," Misa snapped sharply and then proceeded to smiling innocently. "Because he died the same day as L Lawliet, did he not? Misa-Misa isn't too sure; she only remembers what she saw on the news that day." Misa bonked the side of her head. "She's so stupid like that, don't you think so?"
"Well no—"
"Misa's boyfriend also pushes such mean words on Misa-Misa. They are such hurtful words that she can't take it anymore. " The elderly man steps away as she takes a step forward and now is half way into the doorway. "Misa wants to make Lawliet happy. She wants to put a stop to Kira once and for all."
By now the man is baffled – lost in his own state of mind. He is old— worn out –mind cannot keep up with her and she is winning this tiresome battle.
Misa will get her answers because she like L is justice but not similar to L because she will not die – not as long as her precious Light-kun still draws breathe in this forsaken world she once called home.
"Roger – what is taking you so—"The voice pauses and Misa darts her head to her right only to catch herself before letting out a scream upon seeing red hair instead of black. A small – insignificant scare because L Lawliet is still rightfully dead.
It was just more over the fact this kid just reminded her of L. Maybe it was the way he spoke – it had that same monotone attitude she had hated the most when she was still so deeply influenced by Light-kun's wishes. "You – what are you doing here?"
A smirk so this boy did have his own voice after all – such venom – L would have never sounded like that on any occasion.
"Misa is simply visiting an old friend." She replied calmly because in a sense it was the truth. She did tell Lawliet at some point that she was his friend so it wasn't like she was lying or anything.
"Then should I redirect you to his grave?" The red head sneered out.
Touché and with this kind of attitude maybe Misa concluded he was the "N" that was up and about now because he earned that annoyance twitch in the back of her head that L used to give her.
"The self proclaimed 'N' Misa-Misa assumes." Misa said as she dared to enter through the front door and then turn her body to meet what it appeared to be as an apprentice for L under – her eyes darted back to the elderly man – Roger's care?
"Good guess – but no – not even close." Misa let out a small 'humph.'
"You have Misa's apologies because she can see just by your scorn that there is no way you could walk in L's footsteps – now is there?"
It was then with all that pushing and shoving that she made this boy crack. His fist nearly impacted her face had it not been for the elderly man who came to her rescue – in a surprisingly twist.
To be saved by an elderly man of all things how distasteful – Misa rather she be knocked across the side of the room – it would have been nothing new compared to the things Light did to her during his explosive rages.
"Matt calm yourself down – you –know better than to be so rude to our guests." Roger told him and Misa mimicked his words to the redhead silently just to watch his facial expression continue to react so wildly at her pokes and prods.
"Guests – You're joking right? There's no way this type of person is a guest!"
"That's not nice," Misa pouted, "Misa-Misa is just wants to be friends in such rough times."
"Like hell you are." The red headed – Matt— replied as he began to light a cigarette and smoke it right before Roger and her eyes.
"What's all the commotion about?" Another voice questioned as Misa heard more footsteps coming from around the corner. A blonde haired boy poked out and stared blankly at her with an 'o' shaped expression just like L would do whenever he was stunned. Misa found herself stifling a laugh – they were all little versions of L.
"What is this place – a school for breeding mini Ls?" When no one answered, she knew she had hit the marker right on the head. Oh Light-kun would have a fit at hearing this. She wondered if he'd get a heart attack – wouldn't that be ironic? "Don't worry Misa won't tell, it will be Misa-Misa's little secret with L-san's friends." She said, placing her right index finger to her lips and smiled. "So relax."
She turned away from the newcomers and continued her pursuit for victory versus Roger's nervous glances. "Anyways considering what this place really is for – she needs help locating someone who can help her defeat Kira but this person needs to be really smart like him and enough to scare the living daylights out of Kira just like L did before his unforgiving death. Misa presumes Roger-san can do this for her since he has kids like these running about."
"Roger don't you dare tell her anything – what we should be doing is making her suffer – I'll get my gun and we can finally rid ourselves of one Kira in this world for L's sake and ours!"
"Eh—?" Misa exclaimed upon hearing this sudden self-righteous act to put an end to her "cruel and horrid" methods that defined her as being the 2nd Kira. Misa smiled sweetly at him. In her head all she could think about was on what an emotional boy the blonde turned out to be. He was the polar opposite of L even though having his looks. In fact this boy was almost identical to her mood swings and once again it was all so very amusing. "Why would you kill Misa-Misa? Don't you know – you could go to jail for such hasty actions. If L-san is your mentor – he'd never want that. Plus if Misa was to die so wrongly in a place like this the government officials would have quite a fit at losing their favorite Misa-Misa. This building wouldn't last very long and the others wouldn't be able to be on big happy family anymore – would they? Do you really want to risk doing all that?"
"Mello she's right – don't do anything stupid." The red head – Matt – was it – told the blonde – Mello.
Matt- Mello.
Marshmallow – Misa snickered.
"Your one to talk – I bet you already tried to hit her." Mello shot back and the bickering began. Such a silly family this was turning out to be and Misa always thought L was all alone – how nice maybe she could pity him less now.
"So," Misa interrupted, "Roger-san, can Roger-san help Misa-Misa or will she have to do something drastic to make him help her?" Matt was ready to counter this little speech but her loud – irritating – voice rang out over his. "Misa is a very rich girl – she can make things happen that could destroy Watari-san's very wishes as well as L's and being such a fan of L – Roger-san wouldn't want that would he?"
"B," Roger began despite the two boys demanding that he do no such thing and yet that elderly man shut his eyes tightly ignoring their cries. "The man you're looking for is named BB also known as Beyond Birthday."
"And this man can help Misa?"
"Well – he is clinically insane so—"
"Good. Where can she find BB-kun?"
"I don't know. No one does – he vanished from the public once Kira appeared."
"Is he dead?"
"No – BB doesn't die – he always finds a way to come back. Always and never leaves us alone."
"How will Misa know it's him when she finds him?"
"You'll know…." Misa smiled and so she could ease their minds she let them have their relieving sighs as she finally took her leave without a single goodbye.
Only one thing was on her mind then – BB – where oh where, could he possibly be? She licked her lips, she already knew what to do to get him out of hiding – it was only a matter of sneaking around Light-kun now.
Funny how things seemed to turn on her favor the day she walked L's path.
What a joke…

"Light-kun, Misa-Misa has returned!" Misa announced upon entering her apartment building. She expected to find him gone but instead he was sitting in the living room looking as if he was waiting for her to come home.
"Where exactly did you go Misa?" He shot out, "I called your work because I needed you to do a task for me and yet they said they never called you in. So where did you go?"
Misa beamed at him, and lifted her hands up now revealing she was carrying a giant plastic bag. "You went shopping?" He asked, sounding more and more aggravated than ever before. Misa ignored his – mood swing- and placed the bag on the table letting him peel the bag open to see her little gift she had prepared knowing well to prepare a counter measurement if Light-kun had discovered her lie. There was a reason she picked this day of all days to do it.
"Why did you buy a birthday cake Misa?" He asked and Misa turned to head into the kitchen revealing she had retrieved a knife and a plastic plate for his own enjoyment.
"Light-kun didn't even read it! Honestly he's so mean to her lately." Misa pouted, as she set the knife delicately into Light-kun's questioning opened right hand and then settled the plate in his lap.
"It's not even my birthday." Light gritted out as he turned to read Misa-Misa's stupid message she had left in the cake. "Happy Birthday…Lawliet… Misa – JUST – what – the – HELL – is – this?!"
"Well is today not the day of the anniversary of L's death?" Misa asked innocently despite her fear of Light-kun's balled up shaking hands.
He paused.
"Anniversary of L's death?" He echoed, and Misa purred.
"Oh yes Light-kun, the day you finally beat L." She added, stroking his ego as she didn't waste any to push the plate off Light's lap and instead take its place instead to get a free ride. "They day you made Misa-Misa so happy." She whispered, dipping her head and proceeding to pressing her lips softly against his firm neck side. The knife was dropped out of Light's hand in a second and once again Misa had sneaked by Light-kun undetected.
All she had to do was rinse and repeat and hey on the bright side – Misa finally got to have her second round with Light-kun so it wasn't a complete loss and utter loss.
Once this was all said and done there was one thing left to do before really starting her rebellion.
Dispose of the cake…
That made her actually smile…
Like he always did when he was still alive.
That stupid detective.
Why did she end up loving him?
And yet –
Why did she continue to mock him in such ways?
Maybe she was angry with him for failing.
Maybe because of his idiocy – he managed to get Rem killed.
Maybe that's why she was glad she would never have to see his stupid face ever again.
She would never have to see L's or Light's face ever again and that made her truly smile.
The day she finally saw red.
