I'm back!! Missed me? I missed all of you wonderful readers. Well, you've read the first chapter. Now, its time to see what our dear rock sensation, Misa-Misa, has gotten herself into. Mwuahahahaha!
Misa hurriedly followed Rurouni up the bountiful stairs, glad that she was in shape and was able to keep up with him. Those exercise tapes actually do come in handy, she mused before going through the door leading to the rooftop of the building. He was holding the door for her in true male fashion. Once on the roof, Misa took in the beautiful sight of the city.
From her perspective, the city looked so gorgeous, better than she had ever saw it. The neon lights created a texture around the city, highlighting everything in a way that had Misa believing she was in an art gallery and seeing the most realistic, captivating artwork that had ever been created. And then tonight was a full moon and the night sky was filled with stars. She had a good view of one of the most important businesses in Tokyo.
"It's so…beautiful," she gasps, taking in the view. Rurouni smiles, walking pass her to the edge of the roof. That's when Misa noticed what was missing in the scenery that he had brought her to. "Um…I don't see any instruments." His lips curved into a devilish smirk, a look she found herself enjoying more than she should have. She had a boyfriend for God's sake. Well, its not like he loves me or anything, Misa found herself thinking before shaking her head, chiding herself for such ill thoughts of her Light-kun. Still…it was the truth.
"Your powers of observation continue to amaze me," Rurouni commented before he pulled out a wand, the kind of instrument Misa knew that conductors used when they were about to start a harmony. He tapped against a steel step, which was connected to a fire escape of the apartment complex. "I dedicate this sonnet to our lovely government, whose rules even today have cost us the memory of what we stood for centuries before, what Kira stands for." He then began to wave the wand and sigh in content. He seemed so calm, it left Misa at ill ease. Normally, people would think Misa-Misa had issues. But, if compared to this guy, she seemed like the smartest person on the face of the planet.
"I don't hear anything…" Wrong. All of a sudden, Misa heard this loud brass mixed with trumpets and she even heard the violin. Other instruments joined in softly and slowly. "Wait! I can hear it! How are you doing this?" She ran over to the edge of the roof and looked down. People were coming out of their houses and stores. Some even stopped in the middle of the street, stopping their vehicles, and were listening intently. Rurouni refused to answer her. Instead, he just kept waving his wand.
"Wait…wait! And here comes the finale!" He said and pointed to one of the tallest buildings, which was unsafely close to where Light was at the moment. Just like that, it exploded. A fire ball flew into the air above it as she watched the tiny pieces of glass and concrete fly up. Bits and pieces of remains of the building seemed to scatter as what was rest crumbled to the ground. Rurouni laughed sadistically as Misa covered her mouth in horror, terrified at what she just witnessed.
"Alright, I've given you three hours, people. Mr. Yagami, I'd like some suggestions. Something," L asked Light. Truthfully, Light Yagami's mind was not on the explosion that had happened only two blocks away. Instead, his mind was on the safety of his partner and, God forbid, his girlfriend, Misa. Usually, Light would not give a damn about the annoying blond. But she had risked her popularity and life for to hide his secret identity. In any case, he owed her more than he would've admitted. Besides, he cared about the rock star a lot more than he let on.
"Well, sir, the evidence left at the sighting suggests that the explosives were handmade. What we are dealing with is a man that knows what he's doing and isn't buying any of that crap that we use on a regular basis," Light informed him, sarcastic and informative at the same time, which pissed L off completely. He knew Kira had something to do with it. He just didn't know how.
"I didn't ask for the brief description of what the explosives suggest or how are enemy defers from our usage of explosives here. I want answers. I want his motive for exploding the building, who he is, and I want him under arrest. I expect for you all to figure it out. If my men get involved in any of this, I will hold you all responsible and furthermore, conclude that you are defending him, Mr. Yagami, as Kira and you shall be put under arrest if this ends badly." Light nodded and sighed, running his fingers through his light brown hair.
Pouring the black coffee in a cup, Light groaned aloud. He was just grabbing a cup of coffee before going to the apartment that he and Misa shared. He sipped the hot, bitter liquid, knowing that it was no use drinking it. As soon as he hit the apartment, he'd be going straight to sleep. He'd spend time with Misa during the afternoon, probably spending the time scolding her for not calling him, and then head back here. Yeah, that sounded like a plan.
"Hey, Light, I think you want to check this out," Matsuda called, looking over the surveillance. All in all, they made out a man wearing a mask and all black. He had an accomplice, but they could barely see the other person. Light walked over grudgingly and rubbed his eyes, trying to be focused on whatever Matsuda was showing him. And focused he was for when he looked upon the gray screen, he saw Misa's terrified face.
_________
As soon as he got inside the apartment, Light was welcomed with the heavenly aroma of home-made fried potatoes and bacon. He threw down his coat, which was right beside her tan trench coat on the couch, and walked into the dining room and kitchen to see Misa cooking. He saw a pot of grits and watched her skillfully work on some scrambled eggs, which she was also sprinkling with cheese. She looked up suddenly, just as the coffee machine beeped.
"Hey, Light-kun! I thought I'd welcome you with breakfast. Misa-Misa doesn't want her Light-kun to miss the most important meal of the day," she said all excitedly, something Light would normally find annoying. Instead, lately, he's been finding her concern and devotion pretty cute. After all, there was nothing about Misa that wasn't cute, especially when it came to looks.
Misa an average height for a woman her age, young and petite. Her body wasn't too curvy and he knew she was not one for plastic surgery. Every curve on her body was real, from her C cup breasts to her small, perky ass. Her waist was small and her stomach was flat. Long, shapely legs seemed to go for days in heels, especially now in her black ankle length boots. Her face held a subtle prettiness, the kind of innocence he expected in his sister. Her heart-shaped face held sparkling brown eyes, luscious and full lips, and alabaster skin. Her wheat-blond hair was curled nowadays and she had one part in a ponytail and the rest of her hair falling down to the middle of her back. Tendrils of hair fell on the sides of her face and her bangs were slightly curled as well, parted on either side to give her a younger look.
Today, Misa was wearing a long sleeved sapphire blue dress that fell to the middle of her thighs, hugging her every curve, even her thighs. On one of her shoulders, the material was slid over, just like it was made, leaving a teasing exposure of a creamy, sloping shoulder. She had on a slanted silver belt with an M as her clip, black leggings, and black heeled boots. Silver hoops dangled from ears, silver bracelets were around her wrist, a silver skull ring was on her finger, bringing attention to her long nails with black tips, and a silver heart necklace was around her neck. The new color, instead of black or red, brought out her skin tone a lot better than the other colors, and gave Light a new side of Misa to look at. She had smoky eye shadow, a light layer of clear gloss, and he could tell that everything else on her face was completely natural. No foundation, no powder, and no black. He pondered her change.
"You didn't call me last night. I was getting kind of worried…that is until this morning." Light cursed himself for letting her know that he cared about her safety. Next thing he'd know, she'd be all pressed up against him, claiming that she knew he loved her all along. "Do you know anything about the explosion last night?" He wanted to test her, to see if she'd tell him the truth. He had agreed earlier that he'd be the one to question Misa. She may have trusted Matsuda, but she'd do anything for Light.
Misa didn't answer him directly. She hadn't really thought of her explanation for last night. How can you tell your boyfriend that this masked crusader just swooped down and saved you, brought you on the rooftop of some apartment building, and then mysteriously timed his grand performance of music right before a building exploded? "I…um…I kinda just decided to go onto the party because I knew you'd be pretty busy," she lied pathetically.
Light was behind her before she realized it and Misa nearly dropped the pan of hot, scrambled eggs that she was moving from the electronic stove. "Really? Because Misa, I saw you on a surveillance camera that was on another building with the man we think caused the explosion." Silence was his answer. "What do you know about the guy?" Misa gulped, prepared with a lie faster than she would've liked.
"Well, you see, Misa-Misa was just on her way to you and some guys tried to rape me. When I screamed, this masked guy came down and saved me. He didn't tell me a name when I woke up because you see…I fainted as soon as I saw him. We were on this roof and he said he was going to play me a song and at first, I thought he was crazy. But then, this music began to play and then, the building exploded. I didn't exactly know how to tell you. I thought Light-kun would find Misa…crazy." Misa hated lying to him, but she didn't even believe herself. Last night felt so unreal, yet she knew everything was real. Even the seductive man behind the mask.
Light wrapped his arms around her waist pulling her tightly against him. Misa's hands instantly dropped to her sides and she lulled her head to the side, baring Light her smooth and creamy neck in submission. He knew Misa's most vulnerable of spots and gently nipped at the offering she delivered graciously. Misa moaned softly, her legs feeling like jelly as Light ground into her bottom. He leaned into her neck and whispered in her ear in that smooth, breathtaking voice that could break Misa into a helpless mass of hormones, "Are you sure you're not lying to me?"
Misa opened her eyes slowly as he gently kissed her neck, knowing that this was his way of trying to get her to tell the truth. Rurouni seemed so familiar to her and yet…he was a complete stranger. She wanted to get to know him before she told Light the truth. It felt so wrong to lie to the man she loved, but it was a risk she'd have to take. Turning to him slightly, Misa gave him her sweetest smile yet, something she picked up when she double-majored in music and drama. (In my stories that I will do of Death Note, Misa is actually an early college graduate, graduating earlier than Light. She had went to a University in the United States, where her and some friends' careers starts, which lead you back to my character, Rurouni. She was a very smart girl, but because she started so young, I'm going to make it seem like Misa tries to portray herself as a younger person.)
"Never. Misa-Misa would never lie to her Light-kun. What purpose would there be to lie to you?" Light grinned, the Kira in him listening to her devotion. That's right, Misa Amane would never lie to him about anything. Her loyalty was with him and him alone, no matter what anyone else said. And that's how it would be in their perfect world.
