Waking Up The Next Morning I Tried To Keep The Events Of Yesterday From My Mind...
" Had It All Been A Dream? Is That Monster Still Alive? " I Muttered Half Asleep
Getting Up From My Bed I Walk Out Into My Living Room, The Remote Still On The Floor Where I Had Dropped It, The Table Still Pushed Aside From When I Shuffled To The T.V. My Door, Still Unlocked And Kicked Shut As I Had Been So Overwhelmed I Forgot To Close And Lock It Properly...
" What Time Is It I Wonder... I Dont Remeber My Alarm Going Off... "
I Look At My Watch. 9:09am...
" Damn... I Slept In... This Isn't Good... "
I Start Pacing Back And Forth Counting To Six, Stopping And Then Repeating The Count Up To Six...
" One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six... One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six... One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six... "
I Glance At My Watch Again... 9:16am.. I Sigh With Relief...
" Nothing Happend... "
I Shake My Head And Force Myself To Go On One Of My Long Walks... Lost In My Thoughts I Subconsiouly Walk To The Court House Stopping At The Bottom Of The Stairs Where The Killer Had Died... Yellow Tape Now Stretched Around The Perimeter Of The Court House... I Look Around To See If Anyone Was Near Before I Cross Over The Tape And Walk Up The Steps... There On The Top Steps A Blood Stain Coverd The Ground... I Look At It Intently And The Images Of The Broadcast Start Dancing Through My Head...
" I Still Can't Believe That Actually Happend... And On A Live Broadcast... "
Shaking The Images From My Mind Once More I Continue On My Way Pretending That None Of This Had Ever Occured...
" But How Could That Have Happend? I Don't Understand It... "
Once Again Thoughts Of KIRA Crossed My Mind...
" Maybe It Really WAS KIRA... But How Can That Be? KIRA Is Dead... Or... Is He? No It Couldn't Be KIRA That Was Far Beyond Anything He Would Have Done... "
Then The Thought Of A New KIRA Crossed My Mind Once More...
" No No No Don't Be So Stupid... A New KIRA? Come On... "
I Quite My Voice As A Group Of People Walk Past Me, A Mother, A Father And Their Son... At First Glance They Would Seem Like An Ordinary Family But Their Eye's Were Cold And I Could See The Judgment Behind Them... After They Pass I Stop And Watch Them... Their Son Running Amuk Like Any Normal Six-Year-Old Would And The Parents Scornful Gaze At His Antics...
" Heh... What Am I Doing? " I Think Aloud
Suddenly I Hear The Little Boy Scream... I Turn To See What Happend... The Little Boy's Father Had Him By The Collar Of His Shirt And The He Was Rubbing His Face... No Doubt From Being Backhanded By His Father... I Could Hear The Anger In His Voice As He Yelled... Tears Started To Swell Up In The Little Boy's Eye's...
" How Would Someone Like KIRA Deal With People Like That I Wonder... "
I Started Fantisizeing About The Way's In Which The Could Punished But Shook The Thoughts From My Mind...
" They Will Be Delt With Properly By A Child Abuse Service... "
I Walked On Blocking Out The Sounds Of The Man's Angry Voice And The Little Boy's Tears... The Next Time I Really Noticed Anything It Was Almost Eight At Night... This Had Turned Into Another One Of My Pointless Walks... Sighing I Turn Around And Look To See If I Recognize Anything...
" Now What Have I Gone And Done... "
Scratching My Head I Start Walking Back In The Direction I Came Looking From Side To Side Until I Saw Anything That I Knew Was Nearer To My Home... Finally I Found The Ally By The Grocery Store Not Far From The Court House...
" This Should Get Me Home Quicker... "
I Walk Down The Ally In The Fading Light With My Eye's Closed To The World, Once Agian Lost In My Thoughts... My Attention Is Drawn To Something Rushing Towards Me... A Woman... Probably No Younger Then Me... She Has Blood On The Side Of Her Face And Her Pants Are Torn Open... My Eye's Widen As She Throws Herself Into Me Completely Hysterical...
" Please! Plesase Help Me! " She Cries...
I Look At Her Alittle Confused, But My Confusion Changes To Anger When I See Three Men Bolt Down The Ally After Her... They Stop Infront Of Me And I Can See What It Was They We're Planning Before She Got Away From Them...
" Alright Pal Back Off That Wench Is Ours " One Of Them Spits...
I Glare At Them To Show My Displeasure In What Their Doing... The Woman Was Shaking Uncontrolably Now... I Could Feel Every inch Of Her Body Trembling Against Mine...
" You Know Something... " I Start...
" No What?... " The Same Man Answers...
" People Like You Sicken Me... What Is It About Rape And Murder You Find So Appealing? Is It The Thrill? The Momentary Power? Or Are You Just That Demented... "
" You Got A Problem With Us Pal? "
" Yes... As A Matter Afact I Do... There's No Doubt In My Mind That If I Step Aside And Let You Have Your WayWith This Girl... You'll Rape Her... Then You'll Probably Lock Her Up Somewhere For Later When You Want More From Her... Then Once You've Had Enough You'll Kill Her... And Leave Her Body Somewhere To Rot... Then You'll Repeat The Proccess... You'll Run Off To Find Another Girl Who Will, Nine Times Out Of Ten, Look Similar To This One And You'll Do The Same... Exact... Thing... "
The Man Started Shouting Something Back At Me But I Couldn't Make Out What He Was Saying... He Words Were So Jumbbled Together It Was Hard To Make Anything Out... Suddenly One Of Them Swung Out At Me... I Was Unprepaired For It So I Was Struck On The Right Side Of My Jaw And Fell Backwards...
" There That Awta Teach Yea... "
I Sat Up And Wipped The Blood From My Mouth... My Vision Was Alittle Blurred But I Could Make Out The Men Dragging The Woman Away With Them... Then The Turned Down The Street And Disappeard From View...
" Hmph... What A Waste Of Time... "
I Got And Staggered In The Ally For A Moment Before Regaining My Composure And Walking Out Into The Street... I Looked Down The Road Where The Men Had Taken Off With The Girl...
" That Girls Death Will Be Broadcast Within The Next Four To Five Days... "
I Turn Around To Head Across The Street Down To The Court House To Go Home When I See A Man Picking Things Up Outside Of The Grocery Store... It Was A Bunch Of Fruit... Somene Must Have Knocked Over The Fruit Stand Outside...
" Hmm... What A Waste Of Good Fruit... "
I Walk Across The Street And Head Back To My Home For A Night Of Rest... Tomorrow Would Be A Long Day I Could Already Tell...

The Bone Snatcher: -_- I Appologize For This Being So Late I Got Alittle Side Tracked With Things -shreds newspaper-
16th January 2023 (Monday)
We woke up Monday morning, time for school (16th January 2023). Our mother nearly had to drag us out of our beds, they were so comfy and it was cold outside. Me and Kukaru got out of bed, the second we got out from underneth our covers we ran to the Kotatsu. It was so warm that our mother no longer let us 'nap' in the mornings or we would never get up.
With the weekend over we got dressed into our unifroms and left for school. Mother had packed us a bento each and her bento's were ALWAYS the best. We met up with our best friends at the gate and i was SURE i had seen that girl with the green hair but i could never be certain.
Our favourite friend to annoy came into veiw, Haru. Even though he had the same name as the hot cow from Fruits Basket he looked NOTHING like him.
"Haru!!! Oh Hatsuharu." Me and Kukaru yelled as we BOTH came up and gomped him from behind. He nearly fell over but after a year or so of us doing that he had gotten used to it.
"Ohhh look Cookie, Haru didn't become a cow" i said (Cookie is the nickname i gave my sister) (She speaks the nickname in English, so no-one really understands WHY she calls her sister that.)
"Yes sister,"she gasped "That must mean..."
"That Haru's a girl"
"OR that"
"WERE GUYS." we both finished the sentence, we did this every morning. Almost like a ritual.
"Arisa, Kukaru. What a lovely day it is today, and i hope i find you both well."
"HARU!" we both yelled. We knew that comparing him to Hatsuharu annoyed him, but he knew that being overly formal annoyed us.
"So Haru." i said standing on one side of him.
"What are you going to..." Cookie said standing on the other side.
"For lunch today."
"Cause we both have.."
"Bentos and we were"
"just wondering wether"
"You didn't have any lunch or not"
"cause if you don't"
"We'd love to share ours with you"
"Seeing as mums always packs"
"too much for us to eat." Haru had gotten soo used to our Tennic match conversations that he no longer looked from side to side he merly looked straight ahead and waited for us to finish.
"No thank-you girls, i have a bento of my own."
"Ok then,"
"We'll go ask"
"soeone else then."
"because we REALLY"
"REALLY can't eat these"
"On our own." With that we quickened our pace, to find one of our other friends who were waiting for us.
"Bye bye Hatsuharu, we'll see you in Cooking class." We both said turning around and walking backwards as we waved goodbye to him.
the bell rang and we entered class, another day to sink our teeths into. As i walked up the stairs i remebered the report on the news, the one were that horrible person died a bloody and gory death on the steps of the courthouse. I shook my head to get the image out of my mind. If only Kira had been out there still. He would have done something, he would have seen justice be carried out.
-----------------
ARISA!!
Yeah soo, i worked out the DAY the 16th of January was... i think we might have to but the DATES in a little corner... just to make sure we know what day something happened and WHEN it happened.... KK
We were having a good time. As expected Remu LOVED the fact that I'd gotten groceries so I had no trouble convincing her to fix some Ohagi...in fact, I didn't have to say anything at all. She jumped in the kitchen and started straight off. I sat at the table with Mizawa as we watched Remu work happily in the kitchen. As they chatted I casually interjected...however my main focus rest on the Shinigami in the living room. He was nosy. Examining everything with awe.
The girls brought up a band...An Cafe. They wanted to go so I made a mental note to buy them tickets. I would make Remu go...even IF she thought she'd have to stay home and study. My gosh, she was smart enough, she'd do just fine on exams.
When we finally sat down to eat, I was slightly self-conscious. Ryuk stood glaring at me...drooling. I tried my best to ignore him and took a bite. Miza-chan asked for soy sauce and as Remu went to get it I didn't realize Ryuk followed her. He knocked a pot down by accident and it landed on her head of all places. I involuntarily slapped my palm to my forehead and threw him a wicked glare.
"Kaori?" Remu moaned questionably standing up. I looked at her and plastered a huge fake grin on.
"You should be more careful Remu!" I laughed. Yet the moment Miza-chan started talking with Remu about it, I glared at him again.
Suddenly there was a knock at the door. We all looked at the door simultaneously.
"Ugh, I'll get it, just clean up the mess." I relinquished. Upon it's descent the pan had knocked over some flour or something...starch maybe? It needed cleaning up, I really didn't care how.
"Heh, to get out of cleaning it yourself right?" Remu giggled sticking her tongue at me.
"What? You knocked it over!" I stuck my tongue back at her.
"Wait Kaori-chan!" Mizawa stuttered grabbing my arm. "What if it's the...serial killer..." She whispered...probably goofing off with me.
I laughed and pulled her off. "First of all, serial killers don't knock, and if he WAS stupid enough to knock on MY door...he'd be sorry he ever MET me. I'd tear him apart." I stated smugly. I may not be able to cook very well...and I HATED to clean...but I KNEW how to fight. And I could defend myself exceptionally well.
The girls laughed and I opened the door. I found a young man with a measuring cup. His physical features were quite...unique. One wouldn't be able to forget him quickly at least. The purest and brightest white...not only his attire but his hair and eyebrows. He was quite handsome, but what I found most lovely were his bright, piercing, blue eyes. Eyes that were currently focused...well....not on my face.
I raised an eyebrow and cleared my throat. "Can I HELP you?"
That seemed to snap him out of his shock, he bowed then looked up and smiled. "Good Evening, I'm sorry to call on you like this...but you see I was wondering if I could borrow a cup of sugar."
I just noticed the measuring cup in his hands. "Sure, come in a sec." I led him to just inside the entrance and closed the door, he gave me the measuring cup and I took it to the kitchen. "Remu, fill this up with sugar will ya?"
"Gee...don't even know where that is huh?" She mocked.
I gave her a QUIT BEING SARCASTIC WE HAVE COMPANY expression and she hurried up. Mizawa-chan stood next to me staring at the man dreamily. I shook my head and noticed Ryuk examining him close up. I swallowed.
"Heh Heh...like white much?" Ryuk laughed. "This guy is something alright..."
I sighed...just trying to block his voice from my ears. "So, uh..." I began...but drew a blank, I didn't know his name...
"OH! How terribly rude of me..." He snapped to. "My name is Haguro, Ren'ichi. I'm a neighbor from the lower floor." He laughed.
Haguro Ren? Why does that sound familiar?? "I see." I smiled. "Sakamoto Kaori. Here comes my little sister Remumaru. And this here is Tsunati Mizawa." They each bowed a bit as I introduced them. I took the sugar from Remu and handed it to him. "And here you are. Nice meeting you and good luck with whatever you're making."
He left carefully and I turned back to look at the two girls...still gazing fondly at where he'd been standing. I walked up to them and pinched them both hard on their cheeks. "He's gone now so hurry up and finish dinner...but it's probably gone cold..."
We finished the meal anyway and as Remu walked Mizawa out to the entrance of our building I cleared away the dishes. Another day down, and though it hadn't been very normal, it was alright. I went to my jacket pocket and pulled out the napkin I'd found on the street. "I knew it...that man's name sounded so similar because of this...."
I read the signature of the note once more. "HAGAREN... Haguro, Ren'ichi perhaps??" I deliberated. "No way..."
"What's that? A love letter?" Ryuk chimed in.
"Don't be silly. It's just that paper from the street...it's nothing."
It was a strange letter...I couldn't exactly go up to that kind, young man throwing accusations. Therefore I placed it in the incense burner and burnt it up. As it turned to ash I decided to go ahead and light some incense up...perhaps it would help me relax enough to sleep tonight.
~Kaori
Bored. Bored. Bored. No, something more? Hungry! For cookies.
I desired cookies, but I knew that Hikari had used the last of it trying to make something called a CHURRO, which was surprisingly delicious. I decided to go out and borrow some from the people living on the level up, mostly because I'd heard the tenant was a babe. “Time to make myself presentable, it's what KIRA would do!,” I said happily as I got up and grabbed a used towel off of my desk, but I put it back and grabbed a solid black one. Ecchi towels....heheh.
I slipped into the shower as soon as the water was hot enough to cause me pain. I began staring up at the shower head, wondering what I would say to the woman I was about to meet. “I wonder if she has big breasts...I wonder if her hair is shiny...more importantly, I wonder if she's single!,” I said to myself, not really paying attention. “If she's impressive to look at, I might just ask her out, it'd piss Hikari right off, that's probably a plus, hehe,” I continued, not paying attention to the time, it was going to be dark soon and I didn't want the poor woman to think I was a rapist come for her virtue.
I stepped out of the bathroom, towel wrapped tightly around my waist, rubbing a few shiny pink scars on my chest. It'd been a while since I look closely at my chest, I had completely forgot my tattoo, the logo for KIRA's kingdom. Quietly, so as not to alert Hikari, I slipped into my room and changed into a stunning white suit and fixed my hair into the most casual disarray I could manage in fifteen minutes.
After fixing my ridiculous hair I snuck into the dining area and pilfered a measuring cup, then I was out the door, tip toeing towards the stairs. “I hope she's single! I could so....huh?,” I noticed the wind was blowing oddly as I hit the first step, not bad odd, just weird. I continued up, feeling more and more relaxed as I did so, as if I were going up to meet an old friend for the first time in a long time.
Last step, I stepped onto the next level and, utilizing a very brisk stride, I walked up to her door and knocked. It opened, and my jaw hit the floor.
Alright, so I've been trying to work out the timeline for this RP. Hehe. See, Death Note was set a little ahead of our time, so that is what was most confusing. BUT I finally found the exact date Light Died.
January 28, 2013. <- Therefore, the reign of KIRA ended this day.
Off of this information, I'm setting the date at about mid-January. And remember, it's about a decade after! ^^ Just because I like the sound of it, I'll make it the 15th. So then, as of today, the current date is:
January 15, 2023
Does this sound alright to everyone?? Now you can work out your birth-years by tracking back from that date. XDD
ALSO! Since I have all your attention, I would also like to address one more question I had. The Death Note is a Supernatural book correct? Therefore...does it run out of pages??? I was thinking no...but I wanted to get all of your opinions on the matter first. ^^ The question hit me when I read one of the comics I posted. hehe.
btw...there is NO sort of ORDER when posting here. You may post when you like. ^^ As long as you don't post like...10 times simultaneously! rofl. Just thought you should know.
