Thanks for your reviews guys! See? I'm a girl of my wordword. I know it's shorter than usual. I had writers block so this is all I could do for now.
Anyways, MonaTheGreat, Light was being his 'normal' self at the time so that might be why you thought he was out of character. Light has a thing where he acts normal infront of people and not the guy we know him as.
And Justsomeone, thank you very much for your review. It's nice to know I've been doing so well. I always try to do the best I can at something I am very grateful :). And the way you apologize for your mistakes is adorable. I wish you all the best! ;)

Chapter six: Sadness, discovery and wonder
30 minutes later, somewhere else
L and Soichiro were calmly watching the footage on the screen. L was eating cake.
"Alright now we have to wait for mom to Finnish getting ready." Sayu said standing in front of her closed door
"Yep." Katana said sitting on Sayu' bed
*awkward silence*
"So Sayu, what kind of things are in a mall?" Katana asked curiously
"All kinds of stuff, clothes, toys, food, electronics, accesories, books.."Sayu answered sitting next to Katana
"So you could basically live there right?"Katana asked hopefully
"It's not allowed but i guess you could live there."Sayu answered
"Why isn't it allowed?" Katana asked frowning
"Because they made it so people could shop, not so people could live in it" Sayu answered
"Oh, well that sucks" Katana said pouting
"You really like staying in shops don't you?" Sayu asked chuckling
"I supose i do" Katana answered thinking about it
"I forgot to ask. Where do you live?" Sayu asked
"Good question"L said with finger on his mouth
Katana looked at the wall infront of her as if there was someone there.
"I live in an apartment not far from here." Katana answered
"Oh okay, do you think i could visit sometime?" Sayu asked
"Of course you can but I have to clean up first. Now that i think about it i've got a lot of work ahead of me." Katana answered
"Is she avoiding it or is she telling the truth? Wait she doesn't have any records so she must be avoiding it." L said in his usual monotone manner
"I really don't mind. I'm messy too."Sayu said
"But i can't possibly recieve a guest with the way my apartment is now i just can't" Katana
"Okay then. So Katana do you like someone?" Sayu asked
"I wouldn't exactly call it that but i guess i do."
"Ooh! Who is it?" Sayu asked curiously
"It's a secret" Katana said with a finger on her lips
"It's Light isn't it?"
"I'm not telling you" Katana answered teasingly
"Aww please tell mee" Sayu pleeded
"Nope. What about you? Who do you like?"
"Hideki Ryuuga." Sayu said having a mini fangirl moment
"Is that a guy in your class or something?"
"Hahahaha no silly he's a celebrity!"
"Never heard of him"
"Oh my god what planet do you come from?"
"I wouldn't call it a pl-..."Katana said being cut off by a certain shinigami
"What?" Sayu asked in confusion
"Haha nevermind" Katana said laughing it off
"Hmm interesting. She seemed to have been cut off by someone but there is no one else in the room so that's impossible. Or maybe she's just delousional" L said speaking his mind
"Um okay."
"..."
"..."
Katana had a little eureka moment.
"Hey Sayu I've been meaning to ask you something.."
"Yes what is it?" Sayu asked
"Why do you like me so much? Light told me that you don't like most people you've just met" Katana said
"Good question, i'd also like to know" Soichiro said staring atentively at the screen
"Uh.. You see.."Sayu said standing up and walking away. She stopped in the middle of the room and turned around
"From the moment you met me you saw me for me."Sayu said bowing her head down
"What do you mean?" Katana asked tilting her head to the side
"You didn't see me as Light' younger sister not as my parent' daughter. You didn't see what most people saw, an oportunity, a stupid little girl, a problem to be dealt with to gain something. Even my parents want me to be someone i'm not. They always wanted me to 'be more like Light' or 'do better at school like Light'. It hurts that not even they see me for who i am, me. Most people just get close to me to get closer to my parents and Light but finally I've found the one person who didn't. And that's why I like you so much." Sayu said staring at the floor seemingly trying to hide some tears
"I- I never knew she felt that way" Soichiro said feeling guilty
"Well you two aren't close enough for her to tell you about her feelings because you're always either working or tired from it. So I'm not at all surprised." L said in between bites not looking away from the screen
Katana walked to her and hugged her silently. And Sayu broke down in Katana' arms.
"Well at least she's got Katana to console her" L said not thinking about Soichiro' feelings
"I should be the one consoling her not Katana" Soichiro said voice quivering
"How can you console her if you yourself are a part of the problem?" L asked retorically
"I wanna let them know how I feel you know? I wish there was some way they could know." Sayu said tears falling from her face to Katana' shirt and her shoulder.
Mall, No one' POV
"Come on it's not that far" Sayu said looking at Katana
"I know but my legs hurt." Katana said trying to look down at her legs only to be blocked by her breasts
"It's some exercise so you can lose the weight you've gained in the convenient store" Sayu said sticking her tongue out
"Huh? How does that work?" Katana asked confused
"You see, when you eat food there are these little things called calories, or something like that, and they-" Sayu started explaining
"Hey look! that sign says there's a sale in one of the stores." She said pointing at said sign
"We have to get there before all the good stuff runs out!" Sayu said completely forgetting what she was doing before
"Alright race ya there" Katana said getting a head start on Sayu
"Wait you two!" Sachiko yelled.
They both took off. Katana entered first trying to catch her breath.
"Oh my hopscotch!" Katana said looking up in awe
"I'll... beat you... next time... Katana" Sayu said panting
"I'm sure you will Sayu." Katana said with a grin. Then a thought crossed her mind in a flash
"Uh... Sayu... where's your mom?" Katana asked nervously
"She's probably behind us power-walking over here" Sayu said with a side glance
"Why didn't she run with us?" Katana asked oblivious
Sayu blurted out laughing
"She's an adult!" Sayu answered through her laughs
"Does that make a difference? Wait... she can run right?" Katana asked
"Of course she can, but adults don't run" Sayu explained
"Why not?" Katana said tilting her head
"Becau-" Sayu said cut off by Sachiko
"Why didn't you two wait for me?" Sachiko asked both hands on her hips
"Sorry Sachiko. We were just having fun and we kinda forgot you were there" Katana answered scratching the back of her head
"Sorry mom" Sayu said not completely genuine
"Don't wory about it. Now, where do you guys wanna go first?"
Meanwhile, with Light, Ryuk POV
"Hey Ruyk, why didn't you go with Katana to the mall? Don't you still have to help her act normal?"
"I have a better chance at getting apples if i stick with youyou. Katana will probably be too busy to even think of getting me apples. And i think Katana can handle it by herself." I said doing a handstand behind Light
"Heh, okay. What i'm wondering is where she's gonna put all the stuff she's gnna come with from the mall."
"She's probably gonna ask you to hold onto them."
"Mm... Alright let's get you some apples. I really don't like seeing you do handstands." Light said not sharing eye-contact with me
"Yes!" Yes said excited
Flashback
"Hey Ana, wanna get some human apples with me?" I asked
"Sure! As long as i get some iron."
"I think i can arrange that." I said with a smirk
"Great! Now i just gotta give the old geezers an excuse" Katana answered with a sigh
"Alright i'll wait here" I said
"Kay be right back!" Katana said skipping away
Man, those where the days. I still remember the day it all began.. I thought
"Hi" Katana said looking down at Ryuk
"Hey" I said looking up at her
"Are you lost?"
"No, actually I ran away and I figured this would be a good place to go."
"Oh. I'm Katana. What's your name?" Katana asked with a grin
"Name's Ryuk."
"Where are you from?"
"The shinigami realm"
"So you're a shinigami then?" Katana asked in awe
"Yup."
"That's so cool! I've never seen a real shinigami before!"
"Well now you have. Congratulations."
"Yup, thanks! I can't imagine why you would want to run away though. Do you have a place to stay yet?"
"Heh. Nope."
"Well you can stay with me if you want."
"Umm. Okay"
"Great! Now come on, get up. I wanna show ya something." Katana said sticking her hand out to Ryuk
"Okay" I said grabbing her hand
"Hey Ryuk" Light said pulling me out of my thoughts
"Huh what happened? Did L arrest Kira yet?" I asked trying to annoy him for interrupting me
"No. You were just spacing out. What's wrong?" Light asked a little annoyed
"Nothing. Now where's my apple?"
"Here" Light said holding the apple out for me
"Don't you wanna at least check up on her?" Light asked
"Nah. She's got this."I answered in between bites
"Okay if you say so."Light said simply
"You did give her enough money didn't you?"
"I think so. But she's gonna have to get a job or something. I can't keep paying for everything."
"Pff. Says the guy who spent 400 dollars on a tiny camera then threw it away."
"I did it because I had to."
At mall, no one' POV
"Hey Katana. How about this one?" Sayu asked holding a dress up
"It looks really cool. But you shouldn't you be looking for stuff for yourself" Katana answered
"Hush my friend. Right now you're my model. We can get to me later."
"If you insist"
"I do. Now c'mon try it on. I wanna see you in it"
"Okay sure"
After a couple minutes of struggle Katana came out of the dressing room in a red knee length dress with long sleeves.
"Ooh it looks great on you Katana!" Sayu said in awe
"It does?" Katana asked modest
"Yes, it does."Sachiko answered
"What's the price?" Katana asked
"It's 1600 yen" Sayu answered
"I'll take it" Katana said with a smirk
"Katana?" Sachiko said suddenly
"Yes sachiko?" Katana said blinking out of confusion
"Do you have shoes to go with that dress?"
"No" Katana said rubbing the back of her head
"The shoe section is over there. Why don't you go take a look?"
"Sure. Sayu, could you help me? I don't have experience with this sort of thing."
"Okay"
The two walked to the shoe section. Sachiko stayed behind to look at some racks.
"Okay. I have one question before we start. Can you wear high heels?" Sayu asked sitting on one of the benches
"What are those?" Katana asked sitting next to her
"You see those shoes on the top shelf?" Sayu asked pointing
"Yeah"
"Those are high heels"
"Ah. I suppose I could."
"Okay great."
"So where do we start?"
"Well first we have to find something suitable for your dress. But that depends on the accessories you're going to wear with them."
"Knowing me I'd probably wear black accessories with it."
"Okay then that means the shoes either have to be black or red."
"I want some black ones. 'Cause it goes with more clothes."
"Alright. Usually I'd wear a dress with sneakers but it's not a normal thing to do."
"I don't really care what kind of shoe it is"
"Okay then. So wich shoe size do you have?"
"I don't know" Katana said rubbing the back of her head
"Hmm okay... Hey look there's a shoe sizer matt over there"
"Okay"
They walked to it...
"Am I supposed to wear this?"
"No, you have to stand on the shoeprints on the matt and see what your shoe size is."
A few minutes later...
"Okay so that's settled now let's get to the shoes!"
"Okay so where do you wanna start?"
"Let's go from left to right it'll be less confusing for me that way."
"Alright then."
Sayu went to work and in five minutes she had already put a line of shoes ready for Katana to try on.
"Wow, that was fast."
"I knew what I was looking for"
"Either way you're awesome" Katana said with a grin
Sayu flushed
Meanwhile, somewhere else
Soichiro sat silently in a break room along with matsuda andand Aizawa
"Sir, dont worry about it I'm sure she still loves you."
"Of course she does Matsuda don't be stupid" Soichiro said voice unusually calm
"Sir are you alright? I've never seen you like this before."
"Of course he's not alright. He feels guilty." L said walking in with a coffee mug
"Why?" Aizawa asked
"Oh right you weren't there. He's sad because of something his daughter said. I wouldn't go into it if I were you." L said making some more coffeea
"O..kay." Aizawa said
"I'm gonna go help Watari" Soichiro said calmly getting up
"But sir your-" Matsuda atempted
"Shut up Matsuda" Soichiro said firmly
"That was harsh, even for me." L said after Soichiro left
