Sooooo if you remember my last little(little my butt) a/n, you know i might be able to update as often, so i thought i might as well put this one up now. Now if it doesnt really make sense why L think she's is in leage with Kira, its mostly because of the ties with Light and Misa and the ties with her converstation with Sessy. Also just to update, Kagome knows Light is Kira, L thinks Kagome is maybe kira, and misa is being misa and air headed.
Hm what else... Oh yeah, thanks for reviewing so far everyone! Im glad alot of people like this!
Oh i want to know, how many actually stopped watching the anime after L died? Cause i know i did for a while lol. Was i the only one that cried like a baby when you see him collapse? Ok ok enough dilly dalliting, read already! READ!
Also i want to know how many reading this actually like Light. Am one of the few, in this deathnote loving world?
Disclaimer: I dont own Inuyasha or Deathnote. Nope, teru Mikami is not stashed away in my basement... Being held there against his will. Neither is Light or Mello or L... Nope.
Kagome stepped out of the red sleek car, smiling and nodded at Sesshomaru. His voice was cold as his eyes pierced at her. They had met up so to talk about the situation. Although it had been only a few days since she had told him, she forgave him for his rudeness. She was in danger and even if she didn't know it, Inuyasha had made Sesshomaru promise to watch out for her, since he could not live that long.
"Ok, I'll pick you up after school," his voice rumbled as he leaned to look out of the door. She rolled her eyes with a smile.
"Yes mom," She turned away.
"Kagome," She turned, her soft eyes wide.
"Be careful," A chill ran across her skin. As though she knew something would happen. But she ignored it. She smiled before nodding and walking off. She glanced up to see Light.
"Light!" she called out, an arm raised waving at him. He smiled at her before fully turning towards her. She still couldn't believe he was Kira. But yet it seemed so right. He was smart and good hearted, so why wouldn't he want the world to be good? But what she heard from Guuku, he had killed off agents that were suspicious of him, even going as far as killing the man's fiancé. She had to look past the fake exterior he fooled, even his own family, with.
"I think we need to talk," he started out. She nodded in agreement before she started walking.
"Kagome, there's no easy way around this. But I think you're the second Kira," his words were barely audible but she heard them. A knot grew in her throat as she looked at him.
"What? No! I'm not.." She stuttered out before looking upwards at Light.
"You know already, who I am." She swallowed before saying yes. He turned towards her, grasping her hands in his, his eyes pleading.
" Then you should know. I'm doing this to make the world a better place. To make a better world, a safer world. A world you deserve to live in." He lifted a hand to cup her soft cheek. She stared at him, lightly biting her lower lip, before shaking her head. She glanced down before back into his eyes. She felt the battle inside her. She wanted to believe him, help him even make a better world.
"You don't have a right though. Its left up to the Shinigami's for a reason," He shook his head.
"Is there anyone more qualified then me? I don't easily give into emotions and I'm smart enough to do this without getting caught.. Kagome I want you…" But he was interrupted by the coming of Ryuuga.
" Ah Kagome, Light. Your together again, it seems I always run into the two of you." Kagome smiled with a laugh, sliding her hands out of Lights. Something Ryuuga couldn't help but notice.
"Yeah it seems that way,"
"Are you two a couple? " Light only smiled knowingly at what Ryuzaki was doing. He wanted to see if they were hanging out more then it seemed. Kagome didn't see it like that. And she didn't want Ryuuga to see it like that either, for some odd reason. She turned red, before shaking her head and hands.
"No, no we just ran into each other. I don't have a boyfriend like that," She said, her voice slightly strained. Light turned to her.
"What about that older man you were with?" It seemed instead of red, the color drained from her cheeks. She turned away from both boys, slightly glancing over her shoulder.
"No, that was Sesshomaru. He was the brother of… well my ex. Who's dead." The air became tense as they waited for her to continue. Her eyes seemed to glaze over as a look of sheer sadness over came her.
"Kagome," Light whispered before she came out of the depression. She laughed, scratching the back of her head.
"Sorry, sorry. I don't know what came over me. Sorry, I have to go." She glanced over, looking into Ryuuga's eyes, feeling a tightening in her chest. At that, she walked away from the two curious boys. A tremble ran down her body as the memories started to flood her. She stumbled away from the doors she was coming to, to stand on the side of the building. Seeing Sesshomaru, remembering Inuyasha, even the warmth in her chest when around the weird Ryuuga, reminded her of her set fate. Fate that even the Shinigami king could not break.
"Inuyasha," she mumbled, trying to compose herself. God it hurt. Even after all this time, it hurt. The memories of Inuyasha was like a aching knee in the cold. His stupid loud voice, his overzealous nature, his sweet smile, his hidden caring nature.
"Miss are you alright?" She snuffled before glancing up. An older man stood in front of her, wearing a suit with thinning gray hair and gray mustache. His eyes were narrow yet kind with crinkles in the end and laugh lines on his cheeks. She took the hand he offered, lifting herself.
"Yes, I'm fine. Just a bit sad,"
"A pretty girl like yourself shouldn't cry over a boy, come on." She wiped her face with a laugh.
"How did you know it was a boy?"
"I know many things… Oh? Are you Kagome Higurashi?" She looked up at the man before nodding.
"Yes I am, why? Who are you." The man sighed.
"Oh, dear. Well at least this saves me the trouble of finding you,"
"What is it? Is everything alright?"
"It seems your arrested,"
"What?" but before she could ask anymore, someone grabbed her arms roughly, tying them behind her back. They wrapped a bandana over her eyes and into her mouth before she could protest. She squirmed in their arms as they carried her away, her legs and arms flaring. She could only blame herself for all of this, if only she didn't make that deal, then her life would be normal. But she quickly banished the thought as she memory of Inuyasha rushing to Kikyo, not her, when they had both came back to life. He was calling Kikyo's name when they came from the forest that Sesshomaru had let them rest. It was Kikyo who he lifted up, slamming is lips onto her own. He was happy when she finally left them and knew even if she suffered, at least he was happy.
It was cold in the room. The hair stood up on the ends of her skin when she finally came to. She must have fainted. Or they drugged her. Either way, she was immobile. Fear coursed through her body as she realized what happened. Her arms were wrapped to her, unable to move as cold metal held her legs down. She was standing yet something covered her vision. Her neck ached as it was leaning unsupported as she slept. Her lips trembles as she tried to speak. But she didn't need to.
"Ah, Kagome, it seems your awake now," a robotic voice called from in front of her.
"Hello? This isn't funny. Let me go!" she tried to thrashed in her bindings, yet couldn't get out.
"Its useless. You cannot escape. Now tell me, are you kira?"
"What? no! is this what it is all about?"
" Then what do shinigami's and notebooks have to do with kira?" A shiver ran down her spine before she spoke. Who ever this was, was apart of the investigation of kira.
"I don't know what your talking about."
"You do though, noting your reaction and the confession you gave to that man at your house is proof enough."
"How.. Did you put camera's in my living room?" she shrieked.
"Not only in your living room, but in all of your rooms," She thrashed in her bindings again in sheer irritation.
"You pervert! You creepy little stalker! Who is this?" L's eyes widen with her words. One this wasn't how Misa was reacting at all. Second… He turned off the microphone.
"Am I a pervert?" He asked Watari, who stood next to him, his face passive to the question.
"A bit sir," L took a bite of the his cake before turning his crouched body towards the microphone and flickering it on. Kagome was shrieking again of injustice and him being a pervert.
"Quiet Kagome. Now I know you know all about kira. You may even know who he is. So tell me, are you Kira or even the second Kira." Kagome snorted before letting her tongue slip.
"Did you really listen to my story? Then you would know I turned down the death note. And I don't fully agree with what kira is doing. That is for a god to judge, not humans. We are prone to mistakes and emotions. Now please let me go." L had already turned off his microphone and walked out of the room. He made is way to the living room where the detectives were.
"Ryuzaki, what is the meaning of this?"
"Inuyasha," she whimpered, hunger setting in. Time seemed to stop existing as she stood there, no one had talked to her in hours, or maybe days. Finally she whispered his name. She couldn't help it. He always was there when needed him. But where was he now? In the earth, slowly decaying next to his beautiful wife. L watched the video as she called the name over again.
"Inuyasha, save me. Inuyasha," Was it her lovers name? Maybe a family member or friend. He didn't know. And it bothered him, that he didn't know. It was day three for her. And only he knew about her, slowly rotting away in this room, until she proved harmless. Yesterday, Light had put himself into confinement, speaking of sub-consciously being Kira. L knew better though, it wasn't something you think subconsciously. No he knew it was one of Light's plots, but he allowed him. Then his father joined him as well as Misa. But only he knew about Kagome being locked away and planned to keep it that way.
"Is that your lover's name?" he finally asked after not speaking to her for three days. Her body stiffened before answering.
"No… yes.. He's an ex. Sorry, I didn't realize I was saying his name," She mumbled.
"Why do you call for him?"
"He used to come save me, when I needed him most."
"I could release you. If you tell me everything." She shook her head.
"You know all you need to,"
" Kagome just tell me."
"Please… You must have a heart. I'm missing school and my friends must be worried. . . " She whispered. It was silent when Guuku finally decide to let himself he known.
"Damn, Miko. In trouble again? The old man isn't very happy that you got yourself in this situation." Kagome sighed, with a slight smile when recognizing the voice. She couldn't help the tear that fell from her eyes in gratefulness.
"I'm here to protect you. Kill anyone I want to. But it seems your only being held captive rather then tortured. Not like the poor other girl."
"Who's holding me captive?" she asked, choosing her words carefully. She wanted it to seem like she was asking the person rather then Guuku.
"Damn Miko, I don't really want to help. But since you are a favorite, his name is L Lawleit." Guuku laughed out loud before speaking again.
"Also known to you as Ryuuga,"
"Ryuuga?" She whispered, subconsciously trying to bring her hand to her mouth. L was quiet.
"Who is that? Another lover?" This time she laughed.
"Well of all people, you should know, your not my lover." It was dead silent, Kagome wishing she thought of a plan before this. If she could she would have shook her head.
"Ryuuga, you should have just approached me. Because as a person I trust you. But I want you to trust me, so please, release me,"
"No, I cannot release you…"It was almost like she could hear him say what he really meant. Behind those words, he was saying he couldn't trust. But L was interrupted by the door of the room slamming in. There stood Sesshomaru, his hair flaring around him with Matsuda, fidgeting behind him.
"Sorry Ryuzaki, I tried to stop him but he's too strong," Sesshomaru was glaring at L as he walked towards him. His eyes seemed to become red as he was in reach of L.
"You dare harm the miko?" His nostrils flared as he become blood thirsty for L's blood. He brought his hand back, to smash in L's face. L brought up a leg to kick Sesshomaru, only to have that held by Sesshomaru's grip.
"Foolish human, did you really think you could touch this Sesshomaru?" he growled ready to strike again.
"Sesshomaru!" Kagome shrieked from the monitor, all heads looking at her.
"Kagome," Sesshomaru whispered seeing her state. She was ghastly white, the usual color in her cheeks gone. Most of her face was covered in a metal cover as her lips quivered, in fear or coldness no one knew.. Her legs were bare, arms wrapped securely around her in a straight jacket. Tears were running down her cheeks as she whimpered.
"Don't, Sesshomaru. Don't hurt him." Sesshomaru's eyes softened as he loosened the grip on L before pushing through the now crowding men. L followed behind him, a hand absently running over his neck as the other stuck into in pocket. Sesshomaru walked down the hallway, going through doors absently, following the sweet signature sent of Kagome's tears. He stopped at a metal door before pulling it off its hinges with a growl.
"Wow," Matsudo whispered behind L. L's eyes widened as he watched the man. If he was one. He no longer understood the world.
"Kagome," Sesshomaru growled as he ripped the straight jacket from her, leaving her naked. She brought her arms to her breast as she scowled at Sesshomaru, who was working at her eye cover. She glared at him when he finally got them off. She spotted the wide eyed, flushed cheeked, Matsudo and Ryuzaki that stood in the door way with the rest of the men poking their heads over the two.
"Turn around! Perverts!" she screeched, hiding behind Sesshomaru. She tried to cover herself as Sesshomaru handed her his long sleeve button up shirt. Luckily he was extremely long on her, ending thigh high as the sleeves incased her arms.
"Thanks," she grumbled, pulling her arms to her chest. Sesshomaru frowned before pulling for her to leave the room.
"Wait…" Ryuzaki called as they were walking away. Kagome turned, eyes filled with pity as she watched him look at her sadly. She slipped her hand out of Sesshomaru's, turning back at Ryuzaki.
"Here its Ryuzaki, right?" The girl seemed to endlessly surprise him.
"Yes, actually."
"Ryuzaki, although I wish you were a little less hostile with me. I will help you, because I believe what kira is doing is wrong. I want to help you stop him." She smiled at him, warming him slightly. Ryuzaki smiled slightly, shoving his hands into his pockets.
" Matsoda, why don't you get some cake and tea for our guest. Tell Watari we will be having one other guest living, and helping here now in the investigation." Kagome smiled before looking at Sesshomaru.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine." His frown deepened before glaring at Ryuzaki, who in turned glared at what seemed to be someone that liked Kagome a little too much for his taste.
"Come Kagome, we'll sit you somewhere so we can speak alone."
He led her to a separate room, a cream colored room with large windows. She sat at a couch, rubbing absently at her hair, which was slightly oily and gross. He sat across from her, bringing his feet up. He stared at her as he lightly stirred his tea. After such an episode, he could believe she would just up and help him. Her eyes were narrowed though, still obviously annoyed by him. She covered her chest with her arms, painfully obvious of her little amount of clothing. His suspicions of her being kira had only slightly dropped, but he was watchful if she was just trying to fake innocence. It dropped to only 55.32%, she knew more then normal people and that made him careful.
"I don't know everything about Shinigami's but I know enough. Everything I said that night, when you were spying on me, was true. Right know there is one Shinigami in this room. I'm going to do something that no one has seen." She nervously twitched as she leaned into him. She spoke softly the last part, her eyes focusing on his.
"When the Shinigami king marked me, he allowed me to see all his Shinigami's," She grabbed his warm hand and brought it up to her. Slowly she took a piece of paper that was always on her. No matter what or where she was, Guuku always had a piece ready for her. She placed it in his hand, waiting. Ryuzaki fell backwards from his chair as he saw Guuku.
"Guuku, this is.. Well call him Ryuzaki. Ryuzaki this is Guuku, the one the king assigned to watch me if something should happen or when I die. He's the very first Shinigami I met when I went to the other realm." Ryuzaki watched to odd Shinigami with unease as he settled himself onto the chair, his feet brought up, a thumb on his lips,
"Interesting," he mumbled watching Kagome laugh.
"That's cute!" he removed his thumb to his lip before looking up.
"What's cute?'
'That thing you were just doing. Your so easy to read," Ryuzaki's lip twitched in a smile.
"You are a mystery Kagome. Your are not like most humans. You did not accept the death note when first offered and you have quite strong friends. Why are you so special?" She shrugged, her eyes glazing over as she stared out the window.
"It's fate," He brought his thumb back to his lip before mumbling.
"Do you believe it was fate that we met?"
"Of course, if not…" she looked away then, looking at the shinigami who became ridged.
"Rem, she's leaving,"
Five days later, they released Light because Kira had started killing again, proving his innocence. Kagome was the only one that knew the truth. Knew he was kira. But she almost didn't know what to do. Should she just tell them, but they needed proof. Should she try to talk to him? Change him?
"Everyone, this young women will be providing some information for us, so please be kind to her," The group turned to the bowing Kagome.
"Hello everyone, I'm Kagome,"
a/n: SO just so you know, the reasoning behind L for holding onto Kagome and having her in the investigion is one: he might need more information about shinigamis, and two: he doesnt fully trust her yet. Ok now review! To tell you the truth this is one of my favorite chapters ^^ I love the episode with Sesshomaru goes and saves her :D
