My head hurt like I had been hit by a truck. But my body didn't seem that tired so I immediately sat down and grabbed my head trying to massage the pain away. I could feel the coldness of my fingers against my forehead ... , fingers.' Then I suddenly opened my eyes and saw human hands and arms in front of me. Then I jumped to my feet not believing that I was in my human form but here I am. But something seemed different then I moved my head feeling something squirm on my lower back. "Tail" I said to myself. Then I checked the rest of my body and it seemed I still had cat ears, a tail and claws, which I wasn't too surprised about because it was too good to be true. I was wearing a black pants and roll top dark blue in color as well as a waistcoat like jacket. I turned around and there was a white light mist around me as if I was in a cloud in the middle of the day.
,, it took you a long time to come." a sweet child-like voice spoke, but I still couldn't see anything. I looked around until ,, up here Tomoko." The same voice was heard again. I looked up and saw a white glowing, Sirulet-like creature hovering above me. The strange thing was that I wasn't afraid of it at all, I felt safe and somehow calm. ,, "Who are you?" I asked, not knowing what else to say. "I'm Leyla, the spirit of life." This was getting weirder and crazier. First I'm a cat, then in the world of Death Note and now this, how lucky I am... "How did I get here. Actually, where am I is a better question. " The soft gigot left Leila who was now standing right in front of me. ,, This is your subconscious, you are currently sleeping. But that doesn't matter now, child, I've come to explain a few things to you." This caught my attention, because I needed answers urgently. Leyla then began. "You remember how you died in your past life, don't you." to which Tomoko nodded, unable to forget the sight of falling into the sea as Lily called her name.
"Alright then, you see your life ended earlier than planned, that's why I wanted to give you a second chance, but at the same time, I needed your help." This was anything but what I expected, but it would be better to finish I'll listen to what he has to say and then ask questions. ,, You see, this is for you until a few months ago we were a show, but did you know that it's all just actually reading another dimension. Some people through dreams or daydreams can take a look into other dimensions and see certain events." Somehow this seemed strange to me, because I was not a mega-scientist who understood the theories of time and space as if of other dimensions. But after what has happened so far, I would believe it if pigs flew. I nodded my head to signal Leila to continue. ,, You see in addition to the fact that you deserve a second chance, I wanted to ask you to stop the shigami before they make the situation worse than it is now. That's why I reincarnated you in this life like that."
This is already starting to sound suspicious to me,, You reincarnated me as a cat, I can't take much like that. If you wanted to fight Death note why didn't you make Life note." Lily literally threw me in my face every time a new fan fiction came out on the subject. And why doesn't she take care of the shigami herself if they bother her so much. ,, Dear child, things are not that simple. Even without a death note, if you kill someone, would you be able to bring them back." of course you can't if you shoot them in the heart or head or poison them... there's no way you can bring them back. "Of course not." Leyla seemed satisfied with her answer and then continued her story. ,, You can see the same with death note, when you kill someone, they are really dead. If we wanted to return it, then we would have to sacrifice someone else's life, that is our law. After death, you can send your soul to heaven or hell, or in your case, which is very rare, be reincarnated while retaining the memories of your past life. That's why, dear child, I think the Life Note would only do more damage." She had a point. If it really worked like that, then everyone would be chasing and killing each other to get their loved ones back. They probably wouldn't be any better than Kira.
,, But why like a cat." At that, Leyla sweetly laughed at my statement, while I looked at her confused, not seeing what was so funny about it. "Oh dear Tomoko, you're not a cat but a Neko." I couldn't believe what Layla just said. A Neko is a being from Japanese mythology that has the ability to take the form of a cat and a human. They were believed to have nine lives and could sense death. when he comes in. Leyla looked at my shocked and confused face and answered me what she thought I memorized..,, Yes, you can turn into a human whenever you want, you just need to focus on how you looked like a human, and you have nine lives too. As well as a little surprise that you'll probably discover yourself later. So will you help me." I looked at Leyla for a few minutes thinking about all this. However, she gave me a second chance to live as well as allowing me to keep all my memories from my past life. Besides if I can actually change shape then I'm at a bigger advantage than I thought if I just knew it earlier I might be able to prevent the death of as many FBI agents. At least now I have a better chance of saving Naomi as well as being able to do my own investigation and get more evidence.
,, The only thing I ask in return is If new death note appears after this, you have get rid of it, as well as that you must not tell anyone about this. Unless of course they discover it themselves. And for being Neko-chan you decide." this time Layla used a serious voice at the beginning, giving importance that this is a serious matter. ,, you don't even have to ask I plan to do it." when I agreed to it, my vision began to darken and my head began to feel heavy, as if waking up from a two-day sleep.
When I somehow woke up I was on the couch in the living room and I could hear voices coming not far from me. It was everyone from the police force except Ukito, who was most likely being questioned. I think I fell asleep somewhere after the third interview, but I don't remember getting to the couch, Ryuzaki must have dropped me off here when I fell asleep. Then the dream I had rushed into my head and in a second I jumped on all fours in the air surprising the others who were waiting for Ryuzaki to finish. , Please tell me it's not too late...' I prayed as I rushed to the window to open it praying because if the anime is correct I have a little time to meet Naomi before Light if he hasn't already. Which would mean I had to get to them before she gave him her name and he killed her.
After I successfully unlocked the door, I started to climb down, somehow managing to get from balcony to balcony without any problems. , Adrenaline must have spiked in my blood because my heart is beating like crazy.' I thought as I got to my feet on the ground and headed towards the park in the public toilet to try out the theory Leyla told me in the dream, if it doesn't work I have to come up with another plan. I went into one of the cubicles and focused on my appearance as an FBI agent and the next moment I was a little uneasy but a warm energy washed over me and the next second I opened my eyes I could see that I had transformed back into my human form.
I left the cabin and looked in the mirror surprised that my cat's ears were still there as well as the tail. I didn't have time to worry too much about it, so I pulled on the hood of my jacket and tucked my tail into it. My outfit looked exactly like the one from my dream, which I was grateful for because I could have finished naked as much as possible, but luck was on my side today Light. I immediately headed towards the police department along the same route that Naomi and Light were supposed to take during their walk so that I wouldn't accidentally pass them. When I got to the police department I found Light and Naomi crossing the street together and heading in my direction and I breathed out, "Thank you God, I'm not late."
But then I had to approach them without them breaking me in. That's when it dawned on me great idea since it seemed like they were about to introduce themselves so this was my chance. I took a deep breath as I prepared to act out the idea that had just occurred to me. I ran directly towards them and yelled,, Maki-onee- chan!" This attracted a lot of attention. Before anyone could react I threw myself at Naomi with a bear hug whispering in her ear that Light couldn't hear me. "L sent me to get you, work with me so I can take you to him as soon as possible." Naomi seemed to get the message and quickly returned the hug by pretending to reply.,, I'm glad to see you... I need... air. " Then I suddenly let go of her and then turned to Light and with a very cheerful voice played the silly playful younger sister. ,, Oh, I apologize for interrupting the conversation. My name is Shoko Aoi, I am Maki's younger sister. Nice to meet you."
Light was calm and friendly, but I could see through his mask that he was cursing everything just because I messed up and that he had to change his plan. "I'm Light Yagami. And don't worry, I've decided to keep your sister company until we get a very important call. Actually, come to think of it, why don't you join us for a walk." I could guess what he was up to. He wants to get out of Naomi what he knows about Kira and then get rid of me and Naomi at the same time, he won't be able to do it that easily. I'm already two steps ahead of you Light without you even knowing it, so I continued to play the naive younger sister. ,, Yagami as Yagami Soichiro, do you know him." Light seemed a bit surprised but he didn't want to hide the truth because if I already know his father's full name, I probably also knew information about his family so he shouldn't have risked it. ,, Yes he is my father, actually..." I didn't let him continue with his sentence, but burst in with hers while Naomi looked at me confused. "Seriously, I'm working with him on the case right now, but you won't get it until tonight. There is an important meeting going on and everyone's off their phones. And speaking of the appointment, I have to hurry to the same one if I don't want the others to scold me for taking so long to my medical examination." I said this as I turned to Naomi and gave her a sharp look, hoping that she would read from my lips, "Come with me."
Naomi received the message and immediately hung up before Light had a chance to ask the question. "We were just expecting a call from him, I have something very important to tell them about the Kira case." Then I made a surprised face and answered Naomi, "Why didn't you tell me right away, then you have to go with me to tell them directly and probably to answer few more questions." I could literally feel Light glaring at me through his mask wanting to do something to stop us from leaving. But I didn't plan to allow that either in this or the next lives. ,, But won't it be uncomfortable if you take a person they don't know to a secret meeting for the Kira case. What if they think Maki is lying and trying to lead them off the road because they are getting close to Kira. After all, they could accuse you of leaking information." I saw that he hesitated at this, but I knew that he would try something like this. After all, he would use any reason possible to take us and try to find out what we know, go check if there is other witnesses in the story and then eliminate us.
Two can play this game Light, and unfortunately for you the winner today will not be you but me. ,, But Maki-onee-chan is a police officer in America. And since she came here only means that she is willing to risk her life to solve this case. After all, many have given up on the case and there are only a few of us left. Any help is welcome, and it is not difficult to check her record in the police database." I could see he was desperate for an excuse that would stop us and not let us leave but I was more persuasive so that everything would not go downhill for him. Theo had something else to say then I had an idea how to shake him off. ,, Maki-onee-chan, do you have a piece of paper and a pen in your bag? We could give you our phone numbers and you give us yours so that if she can't access our research you can help her. After all, you've helped the police before." Naomi immediately started taking out a pen and paper, handing it to me, and I immediately started writing our names and my fake phone number, but not Maki's, and immediately gave it to him. Since she still hasn't used death note he doesn't know they're fake names so technically I'm giving him what he wanted. I have no doubt that as soon as we leave he'll use our names and disappear to who knows where so this is a great offer for him.
,, I think then we could make it. By the way, give my regards to my father, and to hurry home, for mom is beginning to worry that he is overexerting himself." He said laughing and celebrating his victory over us by giving us his phone number on a white paper, which meant it wasn't a death note because I remember well that it had lines in it. Then she grabbed Naomi's hand and pulled her in the direction of the hotel, running in order to make as much distance as possible and give Light privacy to do his "work". I could imagine how happy Ryuk was now as things got more interesting and he didn't tell Light the reason for his laughter. That the reason is that neither Naomi nor I have given our real names.
After a few blocks of buildings and when I was sure that we were at a sufficient distance and that there were not many people, I lowered my mask and turned to Naomi, who seemed annoyed that I was dragging her like that, but also somehow impressed. "Did you tell the truth? Do you work for L?" Of course she will ask that because he never showed his face to anyone and only contacted her through calls and emails. But I didn't have to worry because I had more than enough information to convince her that I am a safe person.,, Your full name is Naomi Misora, a former FBI agent whose fiance was Raye Penber one of the twelve agents killed. You disappeared after his death so we assumed you would try to capture Kira alone which is very dangerous. You can call me Tenshi. I plan to I'll take you to the meeting I promised, so if you have any additional questions." Naomi seemed even more impressed that I knew as much detail about her current situation as I did the difference between my behavior before Light and now and that I gave no signs of lying. She just nodded and smiled and then started walking towards the hotel where the meeting was taking place. "You are quite good, I must admit. You managed to sneak up on me without me seeing you, to come up with a story in no time and to sound quite believable. Not to mention you had so much information that you could only know if we knew each other in person." This set off my mental alarm but I stayed relaxed and didn't change my impassive face so she couldn't see that she had caught me.
,, We have to be even better if we plan to capture Kira. Do you have any more papers with you Naomi.. My job was to get you to the building and just guide you from there I have one more task to complete and since Light has kept us a bit I'm behind." Naomi nodded and handed me more papers. , Man, there might not be a whole book in there.' I divided the piece she gave me into two parts and wrote the floor and room numbers on one half and a small message for Ryuzaki on the other. I then walked her to the entrance of the hotel where it seemed the meeting had ended as Aizawa rushed past us like a tiger was chasing him. , I seem to have excellent timing.' When we reached the entrance Naomi turned and said. ,, Thank you for bringing me here." I just saluted and ran from the place as she entered the hotel. I ran out the back and sneaked into the hotel waiting for Naomi by the elevator hidden behind the plant decoration nearby.
When Naomi entered and I chased after her and got into the elevator at the last moment. Naomi looked surprised as the elevator took us to the top floor. ,, What are you doing here. Cats shouldn't be here." When the door opened I walked in front of Naomi and I was waiting at the door of the room where the others were. Naomi seemed even more confused but she wanted to convey as soon as possible what she had discovered about the investigation as well as the message that Tenshi had given her. Naomi knocked on the door waiting for an answer .I heard footsteps coming to the door and then they stopped as well as Riyazuki's quite voice warning him to let Watari open but I meowed right after that. Luckily Naomi doesn't have cat senses so she couldn't hear any of it. Neither a second later Watari opened the door asking,, Can I help you somehow Miss…?" I grabbed Naomi's leg and started to pull her inside. Watari noticed me and looked back at Naomi who answered. ,, Naomi Misora. I have information related to the Kira case. Can I talk to him." Naomi was cautious knowing she was in the hallway so anyone walking down the hall could hear her if she wasn't task.
Watari decided to let her in anyway but asked her to stay in the hall until she informs the others of her presence. I could hear their conversation which was quite quiet through the closed door unlike Naomi. "Naomi Misora you say. That name sounds familiar." Probably Watari was looking to find her profile and he must have succeeded because I heard further.,, I know her. She worked for me before. You can let her in, we can trust her." After that Watari opened the door to the living room where everyone was looking at us in surprise, not sure how she found them." Naomi. You say you're giving out information about Kira." Naomi nodded and immediately started talking about her theory about how Kira can kill in other ways than just a heart attack, then she told about the incident in which Raye was involved, the bus hijack. Others participated Stunned by the post's revelation, Raye didn't think it necessary to mention it in the report.
"This is very helpful Naomi, but there's one more thing I'm curious about. How did you find us." This surprised Naomi because I said that he had sent me to get her and that he had found out about her investigation. Naomi was trying to figure out who I was and how I managed to get her to the place she was looking for without even knowing where L was from the Task Force. Then she remembered the messages she had left for herself and said with words. ,, A girl who calls herself Tenshi brought me here saying that L sent her to get me. When she dropped me off in front of the hotel she gave me a message for you saying she had one more errand to do." This caused panic among almost everyone because these meetings were supposed to be secret. Naomi panicked the most because I knew a lot about her especially a few private things that she didn't mention to anyone like she started investigating Kira's case on her own. Also if I knew where he was that automatically meant I probably knew their faces and names.
They were probably all afraid that maybe Kira wasn't playing with them. , , I doubt Kira brought you here. This information would rob him of the great advantage he held in his hand. If it really was Kira he would have killed you rather than let you come here. I also doubt he would have resisted the chance of all of us solve when he knows our location." Ryuzaki was explaining to everyone while Naomi handed him the message I had written for him. From his expression, he seemed surprised but at the same time very intrigued. However, I could see that he was questioning whether or not the message was correct and would probably listen and see whose side I was on.
Ryuzaki
Your meetings are a secret between you and me. You don't have to worry who I am for now, I'm not on Kira's side nor him. I will try to help you as much as I can. We will meet face to face soon, but until then, please all of you stay alive.
Tenshi
