CHAPTER TWELVE
Disclaimer: So yeah, I've been trying to spend more time on checking for spelling mistakes but I normally catch them the day after I update, so some mistakes on Chapter Eleven are now fixed. Just letting you know. But anywho, Chapter Twelve is here and I hope you like it! Misa bashing! It's a good thing. Enjoy! ^_^

"Misa-Misa? What are you doing here?" Misa smiled brightly at Matsuda, her outfit today very blue and very frilly. What else was new? "Hiya Matsuda! I just came by to see Light and to give something to L!" Misa looked around the Investigation room, a small bundle in her hands. "Where is Light?" Matsuda and the rest of the Team didn't know how to answer that question. L had told them that Light and Misa were going on a date today. But here was Misa, not on a date with Light, standing right in front of them. Did L lie to them? Matsuda bit his lip. "Umm...Light is...ummm..." Misa stared at him with expectant eyes.
It was Aizawa who eventually spoke up with a lie. "Light is with L on a...secret mission. Yeah." Not expecting Misa to believe the extremely lame lie, the Team was shocked when Misa continued to smile. "Oh! Well, okay then. I'll come by later." She handed the bundle to Matsuda. "Just make sure L gets this and tell him that I'm sorry for being so mean to him. I know that, once Light proves that he's not Kira, L and I will get along just fine!" Matsuda nodded, unable to speak at Misa's weird and bubbling nature. "I'll see ya later Matsuda!" And with a small peck on the cheek, Misa ran off. Matsuda stared at the bundle in his hands before he turned to Aizawa. "Why did L lie to us?" Aizawa shook his head and Light's father, Soichiro, glared at the files he was reading. "I don't know but we will discuss it with him later."

Misa was walking down the sidewalk when a wave of nausea hit her, sending her to her knees. She covered her mouth with one hand while the other went to the ground to steady her. 'How did I get outside? Where am I?' Looking around with wide eyes, Misa noticed the street name. She was about a block from the Kira Investigation Headquarters. A violent shiver ran through her body and she had to swallow down a hot rush of vomit. A woman walked pass her and quickened her steps when Misa gazed up at her and screeched, "What?! I'm not crazy!!" The woman clutched her handbag closer to her chest. Misa's gaze fell back to the sidewalk.
'I woke up today in my bed at eight in the morning. And now, I'm here, at Headquarters, and it's ten in the morning! Two hours! Two hours of lost time!' Misa felt tears falling down her face and after she took in a few breaths, she slowly got to her feet and started moving, having no idea where she was going. But she wanted to get as far away from the Headquarters as possible. She wanted to go home. She wanted to just curl up in her bed, snuggle with her blankets and fall asleep and just pretend that these past few days were just a bad dream. But most of all, she wanted Light. So, while she stumbled along the sidewalk, Misa took out her cell phone with shaky hands and dialed Light's number.
When he didn't answer, she let out a small sob and decided to leave a message, hoping that he'll get it soon. "L-Light, it's me. Please...p-please pick up. Some really w-weird stuff has been h-happening to me lately. I-I've lost time Light. I-I wake up in places w-when I don't remember h-how or when I got t-there. It's l-like, someone takes over m-my body and makes m-me do things. Oh God, Light please pick up. Please get this m-message and call call m-me back." Then Misa hung up, put it back in her pocket and continued walking, half blinded with tears. Though it was a warm morning, Misa couldn't stop shivering. She made a move to wipe away her tears when her cell phone starting ringing. Her heart jumped to her throat and a smile reached her face as she fished it out of pocket, thinking it was Light. "Hello?! Light?!" "Sam Farner." Misa's smile slipped from her face and her tears stopped falling. "I'm listening."
"He liked the stars..." "He wanted to be an astronaut." Not in the mood to fool around, Aziz spoke quickly. "Misa, tell me where you are." "I'm near the Kira Investigation Headquarters." "Good girl. Then you've done what I've told you to do. To tell you the truth, I was a little worried that you'd disobey me again, but it looks like you've proven me wrong. Tell me if L or one of the members of the Kira Investigation Team has the book." "I gave it to Matsuda. He'll give it to L." "Perfect. Now, there is a very tall building near you Misa. It's actually right across the street from the coffee shop were we first met. I would like you to go there and meet me on the roof of the building. I've got one last task for you. Tell me if you understand." Misa nodded, though Aziz could not see. "I understand."

Aziz took in the view before him with mild interest and grief. Misa was standing inches away from the building's edge, posed to jump and end her life. All on Aziz's command. The sun was almost directly above them, it's light shining down on Misa's blond hair, making it glow with a golden hue. "Beautiful," he whispered. "Really Misa, I've never seen anything quite as lovely as you appear right now." Misa said nothing, still under Aziz's spell. Aziz continued. "It's just such a shame that you've decided to be disobedient. But that's how most of my puppets end up dying. They're so much fun in the beginning and then, after a few days, weeks, months or in some cases, years, the puppet get old and breaks. Free will and disobedience breaks them and they start misbehaving. And the only thing I can do is kill them."
Aziz had wondered briefly about that the first time it had happened. She'd been an American, visiting her mother or something. Lisa Perason. That was her name. Aziz had given her a simple order to kill her son, a five-year old annoying brat. And she was ready to do it too. She had the knife in her hand and everything. But at the last minute, before she could wake him from his nap, she'd thrown the knife away before she could kill him and instead just stared at him while he slept. Aziz was so angry, he'd killed both of them himself, with the same knife. He couldn't figure out how someone people were able to fight his control. Lisa Perason had fought him and now Misa was fighting him too. He just hoped that Light Yagami wouldn't fight him. At least, until he got his hands on L.
Aziz sighed sadly, turning back to Misa. "But all good things must come to an end Puppet. And it's time for you to end." Aziz walked up behind Misa and stroked her blond hair one last time. "Unfortunately, I can't stay and watch. When you die, people will see and the police will come. And I'm still Kira, the mass murder who's on the top of their list. So, I leave you with these instructions Misa Amane. After I leave, I want you to call Light. Tell him your final tearful goodbye, full of love and sorrow. And then, after you call him, I want you to jump. Tell me if you understand." Misa's hair swayed slightly in the wind as she spoke. "I understand." Aziz nodded then gently kissed a lock of Misa's hair. "Goodbye Misa Amane, my Puppet." "Goodbye." Misa stared at the sky for awhile, waiting for Aziz to leave the building. Then she took out her cell phone and dialed Light's number one last time.
"Light. This'll be my last message to you. I just wanted to tell you that you've been the best boyfriend ever. And that I've loved every minute we've spent together, even when Ryuzaki was there. Could you tell Ryuzaki that I'm sorry that I was so mean to him? I just didn't like sharing you with him. But now, that's all over." Tears started to form in Misa's eyes. "I'm so tired Light. I just want to fall asleep and never wake up. So this is goodbye, Light. I'll miss you."
Misa sniffed and wiped away her tears. But just as she was about to hang up, something inside her stirred, as if waking up after a very long sleep. Misa gasped lightly and a flurry of words rushed from her mouth. "Light, listen to me. I don't really want to die. But someone's making me die. They're telling me to die and I have to listen to them!" New tears started to fall down Misa's face. "I've been blacking out Light and I've lost time. I'll wake up in my bed and have no idea how I got there. I'll be at the Kira Investigation Headquarters and I'll have no memory of walking there. And I think that, when that happens, someone's taking over my body."
Misa drew in a breath. She didn't have much time left. "Light, I think it's Aziz. Aziz's the one controlling me. I don't know how or why but I know he's the one. I met him at The Coffee Break on night and after that, all this weird stuff happened. I don't have any proof that he's doing it but I just know." Misa was running out of time and fast. But she needed to get one more thing out before she jumped. "Light, I remember. I remember sitting at the coffee shop with Aziz. And he was talking about his next victims. I don't remember exactly what he said but I know he was talking about killing people."
Misa's time was up. Even as she spoke, her feet were moving closer to the building's edge. "I've got to go Light. I'm sorry." And then, she hung up. Completely blinded by tears, Misa didn't notice the small crowd of people already gathering below her, wondering what was going on. She also had no hope of noticing the shinigami hovering directly above her. Ryuk giggled madly as he watched Misa walk closer to the edge. "So entertaining." Finally, Misa closed her eyes and a small sigh escaped her lips. "I love you Light." And with those words, she jumped. The crowd gasped. And somewhere in a small little coffee shop, a man known as Aziz, Kira, smiled.

A/N: Wow. That was actually kinda sad. I never thought I'd feel sorry for Misa. But I kinda feel sorry for her. What about you guys? What'd you think about her little speech she gave Light? What could this mean for Light and L? What's the Investigation Team gonna do to L? Again, why am I asking you guys these questions?! ^_^ Anywho, review please and you get cookies. Mmm...Cookies.
