"Sayu," Light yelled running down the hallway. "Sayu!" He had tears streaming down his face. He quickly entered his sister's room seeing her sleeping softly in bed.
Sayu shifted slightly rubbing her eyes. "Light? Are you okay?"
Light ran over to Sayu quickly falling to his knees as he got to Sayu's bed. He searched Sayu's eyes then sighed in relief. "I am now…" He gripped her arm nuzzling it slightly and entwining his fingers with hers.
"Light, what are you—" Sayu clenched Light's hand feeling a great pain in her chest. Her breathing heightened as she felt a sharp pain in her chest. She winced arching her back and holding back coughs. She sucked in a breath of air only to feel it being cut off quickly. Her warm, brown eyes widened revealing every emotion in the colored iris. She felt cold and empty as she fell back on her pillow. Her eyes were slowly fading as they continued to stare widely at Light.
Light felt Sayu go limp. He clenched her hand, "S-Sayu." He could sense his tears returning look at his sisters now pale face. Her entire face was now emotionless. Light buried his head into Sayu's sheets letting them absorb his tears. "I'm so sorry, Sayu…"
"You make it sound like it's a bad thing," Kira whispered into Light's ear.
Light glared at his double wishing he could kill him himself. His sadness was being suppressed by his rage. "Why? Why did you do that?"
Kira shrugged, "I told you I—"
"You know what I mean, Kira. You manipulated me. Y-you made me write her name down and… and—"
"—and you killed her."
"No! I would never…" Light looked to both sides of him. "Where's Ryuzaki?" The question was more of a statement than a question. He was worried Kira might've done something to Ryuzaki. He'd noticed some sort of change, and with Sayu dead. Who knows what had become of him?
"Out on some type of business. He got a call sometime in the night and left."
Light sighed in relief at that and stroked his sister's hair. "…She looks scared." Light wiped his eyes sniffling as he did so.
"Light I'm starting to fade," Kira muttered making Light look at him.
In truth that's what was happening. Kira no longer had clear features. He'd become a shadow almost. His entire outline was getting harder and harder to see.
"I'm almost gone…" Kira smile knowing it was unreadable to Light.
Light stared at him with a dazed expression over his face. He watched as Kira slowly faded away and then Light realized it. He was alone. Aside from his dead sister Light was alone in that room. He felt the overpowering sadness wash over him again and he started soaking his sister's sheets again with his tears. It was the only thing he could think of doing at a time like this.
THUD!
Light turned his head swiftly to see what had made the noise. The sound made him jump. A few feet behind him in the center of Sayu's room was a thin, black notebook. It was leather bound and looked like any other notebook.
"That's strange," Light said quietly wiping his eyes. "I don't remember that being there before…"
Light stared curiously at the notebook. He stretched across the floor reaching for the notebook. He ignored the shouts in his head telling him to stop.
Light gripped the leather binding and instantly felt something awaken inside of him. He stared blankly at the ceiling as his eyes rolled back in his head. His head pulsed from the feeling of knowledge being forced into his mind. Light started screaming at the top of his lungs as he felt something inside his mind burst.
Light calmed himself momentarily. He blinked letting his eyes adjust to the new dimly lit room. Light smirked as he picked up the notebook flipping through the blank pages. He looked up and smiled, "It's been a while, Ryuk." Light slammed the book shut tracing the white words that spelled out Death Note on the cover.
A creature with a clown like face chuckled looking down at Light. He had a white face stretched over his high cheekbones. His eyes were a curious yellow with a red pupil. His mouth was always stretched in a grin had the familiar razor teeth sticking out of it from all directions.
Ryuk stretched out one of his spider like fingers, "I was about to think you'd forgotten me completely."
"How someone could forget a face like that I'll never know," Light said standing upright. He looked solemnly at his sister before looking back at his shinigami. "I really wish that was avoidable."
Ryuk shrugged, "She was gonna die anyway. Light-o do you have anything for me?" Ryuk's eyes danced greedily.
Light rolled his eyes, "Damn Shinigami. Is that all you can think about at a time like this?"
"I haven't tasted apples in over a year and you ask me something like that?" Ryuk gave him a knowing look.
Light sighed, "C'mon. I'll see if we have any."
Light walked down the stairs feeling Ryuk hovering behind him. He walked into the kitchen and saw a basket of apples pushed against the refrigerator on the counter. He motioned towards them as Ryuk pounced on them gobbling them up greedily.
Light leaned against the counter looking rather bored at the shinigami. "I'm surprised you didn't kill me Ryuk. I never would've suspected you'd hold out this long."
Ryuk talked between moments where he chewed up the apples. "Mmm… Yeah. I was going to…. But something more interesting happened." He wiped his mouth after finishing the apples. "And, plus, who else would I have gotten my beloved apples from?"
Light smirked while rolling his eyes, "Well at least I know I'm only heightening your addiction."
"Mmm, but what about yours?" Ryuk gave Light a toothy grin.
Light arched one of his eyebrows, "What are you talking about?"
It was Ryuk's turn to arch one of his eyebrows, "Huh? You mean you don't remember anything that happened after you lost your memories?"
Light shrugged, "It's a little hazy, but honestly no. I don't really care, though. I mean that happen after I lost my memories, and it was only a year, right? It's not like that much can change in a year."
Ryuk chuckled sinisterly, "Yeah, I guess you're right."
Light looked at the Death Note, he carried it down stairs with him. "So whose notebook was it this time?"
"I guess you could say I found it."
Light smiled, "Hopefully we won't be interrupted this time."
"I can't promise anything."
Light grinned at the possibility. He flipped through the blank pages aimlessly. "So who do you think should be first?" Light looked over at Ryuk who was scanning the kitchen for more apples.
"…Don't you know?" Ryuk was surprised by Light's lack of focus.
"Hmm… Well I didn't want to kill Near unless I had to. However, he did almost kill me. I guess he should be first."
"You don't think L would suspect you?"
Light thought for a moment. "I'm not exactly sure. He might. I guess we'll have to wait and see." Light smirked picking up the notebook and walking out of the kitchen.
He walked up to his room sitting at his desk. He pulled out a pen, but thought before actually writing anything. "I can't remember anyone else's name except for Stephen Loud and Halle Bullook. However, Mello and Matt are still alive…"
Ryuk shrugged, "It's not like I'm going to tell you their names."
Light glared at the shinigami then turned back to his notebook. He thought for a long moment before actually writing anything. "There!" Light sighed when he was finished.
Nate River
Shot by one of his peers who goes crazy before shooting all of the other witnesses in the area including themselves.
Light reclined back in his chair. "That ought to be enough to actually calm my nerves for now, and if anyone survives I can just kill them easily." Light looked at his clock. 2:57.
"I guess I better go to sleep," Light sighed smiling to himself.
"What are you gonna do about Sayu?" Ryuk asked looking at the door.
"I'll take care of it tomorrow. I'm tired," Light said curling up in his sheet and sighing softly as he closed his eyes.
Ryuk chuckled as he thought; I guess he really doesn't remember a thing about Ryuzaki and him. I wonder what's going to happen when Ryuzaki comes home… This is going to be interesting.
Probably one of the shortest chapers I've done, but one of the most important. I'm tired... lolz
Light gained his memores (Yay!)
But Light can't (or doesn't choose to) remember anything that happened AFTER he lost his memories (DAMN IT ANIMANGA-LOVER)
