Phew...Finally, the latest chapter is finished.
Took me a while. But I did it!
I do not own Death Note or any of it's characters.
Enjoy
After detention, I left Ellie and went outside.
It had stopped raining at least. There was a strong wind though and there were a lot of dark clouds. It could rain again soon.
I walked to the tree that the man earlier had stood next to. I had come to a conclusion. It was the same man I had bumped into. Did that explain my strange sense of familiarity from him? Or is it that I've met this man before, but can't remember him?
Either way, it looks like I won't be seeing him again. Although, if I got his name or something, it would explain a lot.
I saw something on the floor. It looked silver. I picked it up and examined it carefully.
"A chocolate wrapper?" I asked myself. Did the man drop this? Or was it a student? There's no label on it. It might not be a chocolate wrapper.
I threw it on the floor again and left the tree, and walked towards Ellie.
"You done?" she asked.
I nodded. "Just a chocolate wrapper."
She grunted and turned. "We should go to Geography. Ms. Wooler will kill us if we're late again."
I nodded and followed her.
While we were walking she asked. "So, what shall we do tonight at my place? I have an awesome new video game we could play."
"Sounds fun." I replied.
"Or, we could watch videos or something."
"Yeah, we should do that."
Ellie skipped ahead. "Remember when we were kids. We'd be into anime and all that."
"Yeah, we were total losers back then." I said laughing.
It was almost midnight.
Ellie and I had lost track of time, all we did was play on her Xbox for hours.
Suddenly, my phone rang.
"Hello?" I said into the phone.
"Grace! I was so worried about you! Where are you?" my mum asked.
"Oh, hi mum. I went over Ellie's house. We lost track of time. I'm so sorry."
"It's okay. As long as you're safe. How long will you be?"
"Half hour at the least." I replied.
"Okay, honey. I know you're eighteen and everything and you're free to do what you want, but you have to tell me about these things. I was really worried about you."
"I'm sorry, mum. It won't happen again, I promise." I said.
"Okay. I'll see you in a few minutes. Bye."
"Bye." I said, before hanging up.
I put my phone in my pocket and pulled my hood over my head and shivered.
It was cold and dark. The sky was clear and the moon was full and bright. The sky was dark, with the occasional star shining brightly.
There was no wind or rain, and it was dead silent.
The streets were empty and dark, the street lights were dim. I could only hear my feet against the pavement. I was almost scared.
I walked past dark alleyways, and I tried to be careful of them, just in case there was someone lurking in the darkness.
I stopped walking. I thought I had heard someone behind me. I looked over my shoulder. No-one.
I sighed and shook my head. Was I being paranoid? Why did I feel like I was being watched?
I carried on walking.
I pulled my phone out of my pocket to check the time.
"Battery's dead." I muttered as the bright screen faded to black.
Suddenly, a hand covered my mouth and something cold pressed against my back.
I tried to scream but it was nothing more than a muffled plea. The person pulled me into one of the dark alleyways.
My heart was pounding and I could barely breath, and not just because of the hand over my mouth.
Was this it? Was I going to be killed?
I tried screaming again. But, no-one came.
"If you try to escape I'll kill you. I have a gun pressed against your back. If you try anything, I'll pull the trigger. Understand?" he asked.
That voice! I recognize it from somewhere. But where?
I nodded.
"Good." he said. He sounded like he was smirking.
Suddenly, the dark alley was lit up with a torch or something. There was a black motorcycle leaned up against the wall.
Then, something cold locked around my wrists. Handcuffs?
"I'm sorry, but these handcuffs are necessary. This may come as a surprise for you, but we know everything about you."
We?
"Your dad used to be a detective, and you used to help out in a a few of the cases. Showing amazing deduction and reasoning skills."
Who is this guy?
"You are excellent at lock picking and have broken into several buildings to help with your father's investigations."
Where have I heard that voice before? Is it someone I know?
He took his hand away from my mouth.
I pushed myself away from him, and tried to get away, but, since my hands were tied behind my back, I lost balance and I fell to the ground.
"Who are you!? What do you want from me?! Money?! Is that it?!"
The man was tall. He was wearing a leather, hooded jumper. The hood was pulled down from his head. He had blonde shoulder-length hair and bright blue eyes. He had leather trousers and gloves. He had a gun in his hand.
"It's you!" I yelled, climbing to my feet. "You're the guy I bumped into this morning. You were the guy that was standing outside in our school field!"
He didn't say anything. He just smirked, reached into his pocket and pulled out a chocolate bar. He unwrapped it and took a bite out of it.
I know him from somewhere. Who the hell is he?!
I closed my eyes trying to remember.
Then...I remembered.
"No way..." I said breathlessly.
"It's you. Y-You're..."
He smirked and took another bite out of his chocolate bar.
"Mello..."
Hope you enjoyed it.
