“No Good Deed go Unpunished”
=Flash Back Jerrica POV=
“I want to help you Ryuuzaki, or should I say L,” I saidstaring at the man before me.
His midnight black hair, with eyes to match. The dark rings under his eyes only gave him a mysterious look to him, as he sat in his usual crouching position. He seemed to be thinking carefully of his next words,calculating his actions.
I admit, the man sitting before me was not the man I waspicturing who hid behind his computer. He seemed a lot more normal than I had pictured, and a lot more handsome.
I had worked with Souichiro Yagami once before, and enjoyed it.The thrill of bringing the hammer of justice on criminals was exhilarating.When I had received information that he was working with THE L, I had to jump on this case. But, my experience was no “great enough” so they told me. Lies.They just didn’t want to pay another officer. I took the liberty to volunteer my services to L and hope that he would accept me.
His voice brought my attention back to him. “Why would you endanger yourself by willingly getting involved with this case.” His question was more of a statement, a warning of some sort.
“For justice.”
My answer didn’t faze him. A smile tugged the corner of his lips. He was indeed pleased with my answer. “Welcome to the Kira case Jerrica.”
=End Flash Back=
[Jerrica POV]
When I meant help I expected to working with the other officersand L himself. So when I was asked to observe Light Yagami, who was suspectedas by a mere 5%, I was dumbfounded. But, at the end of each day I would reportto L and give him my observations. L could always just observe him, but L’sreasoning is that I was not a threat so he’d act more natural around myself than he would with L.
This routine had been going on for 6 months and each day themore time I spent with L I started to notice the little things about him. Despite being a genius he was like a child. A love of sweets, his competitivespirit, and his undying passion in anything he did. You could say I developed atiny, whom was I trying to kid; I really liked L. It was those qualities that Isaw that made me fall harder and harder.
“Jerrica,” Light called out to me breaking my daydream trance.
“Hm?” I responded glancing at him.
“So you joined the case on your own free will? Unpaid andeverything?” Light asked a little astonished. No surprise really, he finallyheard about it.
“Let’s call it my good deed to society.” I said jokingly, Ilaughed a little and returned back to my task at hand.
Light’s persona suddenly changed. His aura more sinister, I couldn’t place my finger on it, but it frightened me again. I felt that he was right behind me, his hot breath touching the nape of my neck. I started tobecome nervous but I did not turn around to meet his eyes.
“Kira is doing a favor for society. Your good deed is nothing,”Light’s voice was low, and held a hint of resentment and all knowing. I winced a little, and my body grew ridged. When L meant more natural he wasn’t kidding. He would never act this way if anyone else were in the room.
He backed away and my muscles relaxed as he distanced himselffrom me. I looked back and caught a glimpse of his features. His usual soft smile was twisted and contorted into something wicked. His eyes shown a ruby red, or was that just my imagination.
“Remember this Jerrica, no good deed goes unpunished,” Lightsaid about a whisper, but I still caught it.
This was definitely not the norm for Light, and I would definitely have something interesting to report to L tonight.
[Third POV]
Light walked away from Jerrica, Ryuk floating next to him. Ryukjust chuckled at Light a little.
As he walked into the next room Light shut the door and locked it. A low chuckled started to spill from Light’s lips, which erupted into an insane cackle.
“Just how stupid does she think I am,” Light said to no one,but knew that Ryuk would answer him anyway.
“You just gave yourself away Light. You realize that don’t you?”Ryuk questioned.
“Of course, I want Ryuuzaki to figure it out before hisuntimely end. This game of cat and mouse is going to end soon. Very soon.” Asmirk graced Light’s shadowy features.
[L POV]
I continued to watch surveillance videos. I carefully watchedMisa, or the second Kira carefully to see if I could catch any suspicious actions. The sudden clicking noise of the doorknob being opening drew my attention.
‘It must be urgent if whoever it is didn’t bother to knock,’ I concluded as I saw the door opening swiftly revealing Jerrica. I noted that shehad a look of shock and confusion.
“What’s the matter?” I asked my tone sounding less enthused thanI had hoped.
“Light, he- and something weird was-“ She babbled out using herhand to try and help her ease out her speech, but it failed.
I scooted over and looked at her, she took the hint and stopped talking and sat next to me trying to recollect herself. I observed her faintly; she seemed to be shaken up about something. Her hair hung casting shadows overher petite face. The light radiating off the monitors made her appearance have a glowing effect. I shut my eyes to try and fix the image in front of me. WhenI opened them Jerrica still had that angelic glow around her form.
“Have you calmed down,” I asked my voice softening, trying tomake her feel better. I was never good at comforting people, especially the female population. But, I tried none the less. If it had anything to do with Light then I was partially to blame for Jerrica’s distress. I felt the need to comfort her now.
She nodded and looked at me with those eyes that seemed to suck me in. Reaching out I pushed back a piece of her hair that dangled in her face,my fingertips lightly brushing against her cheek. A small blush rose to her face and I retracted my hand quickly; it was as if my hand moved on it’s own.
“L, Light, he was acting so strange. It was as if he was a completely different person! He gave off a very wicked aura and it scared me, especially what he said,” She rambled, getting more flustered as she spoke.
“What did he say?” I asked out of curiosity.
“’No good deed goes unpunished.’ What do you think he meant?” She asked frantically leaning forward placing her hands on my shoulders her eyes searching my face for an answer.
‘What did Light mean by that?’ I would ponder that later. Fornow, Jerrica still seemed like she was hiding something.
“Jerrica is something-“ I cut myself off as Jerrica wrapped her arms around me pulling me into a hug. It didn’t feel right, like she was tryingto hold onto me, telling me not to leave her.
My heart raced a little from the close contact. My hands awkwardly found its way around Jerrica as well. I felt her tense up, but soon relax.
“L, am I doing the right thing?” She asked me suddenly.
I was taken back from the simple question. What was the thingshe was doing right? I couldn’t give an answer if I didn’t know the entirequestion. I assumed she meant about joining the Kira case.
“Of course you are. Your sense of justice is profound, I thinkit’s just as great as my own.” I hoped that I had said the right thing.
Releasing her embrace from mine she looked up into my eyes. I noted, doubt, reassurance, relief, and something else I couldn’t pin point, longing? Those eyes, like a hypnotist it worked its magic and it was like I was drowning in its emotion.
[Jerrica POV]
L complimented me. I couldn’t believe it! I was so happy, but I still felt empty deep down. L was right here, but he felt farther away than ever. Light’s words no longer bothered me, thanks to L.
As he looked down at me, he seemed lost in his own body, or hewas thinking really hard about something.
‘This is my chance,’ I thought to myself. Summoning all my courage and nerve, I slowly leaned in further. My full lips met with L’s pale ones. It was short and sweet. Emphasis on the sweet. My lips definitely stasted all his sweets that he devoured just before.
I tried to find a reaction on his face. There was none, typical L. I sighed a little getting depressed. No reaction was worse than a bad one. Iturned from his calculating gaze, embarrassed and feeling really stupid.
“Love.”
I snapped my head back to look at him. His eyes dilated alittle, maybe from the shock of the kiss. Talk about your late reactions.
“It wasn’t longing, it was love,” L concluded just like he hadsolved another case. “Am I right?”
Why did he have to embarrass me anymore, by asking? I nodded curtly, and L just smiled a little. I was taken back this was a real smile.
“I can’t accept your love now,” L said seriously, “After I lock up Kira for good, I want to be able to fall in love with you as well.”
Tears welled up in my eyes. There was a definite chance. He didn’t reject me. In his own special way he accepted my love. I was happy, andeven more determined to capture Kira. Lunging at L I wrapped my arms around himcrying happily.
“Thank you so much L,” I sang holding him closer, “I love you.”I whispered the last part to him.
“I love you too Jerrica, and no thank you.”
[2 weeks later Jerrica POV]
It had been two weeks since I confessed my love to L. I was happy that apparently it even began to show in my work performance. Matsuda was teasing me about having a boyfriend every now and then. Even Light asked me one day.
-Flash Back yesterday-
“Jerrica you seem awfully happy,” Light commented with a small laugh.
I was still weary of Light after his 180 two weeks ago, but I remained the same as ever around him.
“Do I really?” I asked nonchalantly. I stirred my coffee contently.
“Yeah, even Ryuuzaki seems a lo happier than usual, if that’seven possible.” Light commented.
My hand ceased its stirring action. Had Light found out aboutmy confession? I looked at him with my brow cocked up.
“Is something going on between you two?” He asked with an all-knowing smile.
“Of course not Light! That’s unprofessional!” I spat back quicker than I had hoped. I bit my lip as I stared at that damned smirk plastered on his face.
“Sure of course not.” He left without a word as I nervously sipped my coffee, that aura was back.
-Flash Back End-
I was in the back of the surveillance room reading some documents that L had given me a while ago. Scanning each line by line I read vigilantly. I grew tired of the tedious task and I looked up to only be met by L’s back faced towards me. I sighed a little he was so dedicated. I guessthat’s why I couldn’t wait for this case to end. If he was this dedicated tothis case, just imagine how dedicated he’s be to me after. The mere thought made you giggled like a schoolgirl once again.
This earned you an odd stare by Light who rolled his eyes and went back to watching the many screens in front of him. L on the other hand just gave you a secret smile and returned to his work.
You were satisfied, L always found ways to give you attention in his own way and work at the same time. It always made you happy when he showed you his little affection notions. My gaze lingered on L for a whilemore. I saw his body to ridged. I will never forget the next three sounds ever in my life.
The high-pitched “clank” of L’s coffee spoon hitting the cold metal floor. That was all that it took for a wave of panic to rush over my body. Next L’s body falling off his chair. The sound of the wheels rolling shook my body like an earthquake. And finally, Light’s frantic shout.
“RYUUZAKI”
Light lunged forward and caught L’s body before he hit thefloor. I finally reacted and ran to L, in a panic I hit the edge of the table I was sitting on, the documents that were once in a neat pile now rained down upon the floor. Everyone in the room was in such shock. Who wouldn’t be? L just collapsed.
Running up to Light who currently held L in his arms. My heart pumped faster and faster with each step I took. I kneeled down so I was staring down at L he looked so pained. His eyes trying to stay open.
“L!” I shouted grabbing his hand and held it close to my heart, while the other brushed his long bangs out of his face, so I could look at him better. I felt helpless, he was right in front of me and I couldn’t do a damn thing!
His mouth opened like he was trying to say something his eyes wide with realization. When I noticed that he wasn’t looking at me. My eyes followed his gaze, it landed on Light’s face. My eye’s widened again, out of fear. Light’s face was contorted back to that sinister smile and those glowing red eyes, this time I was not imagining things. It all fell down on me like alead weight, and I’m sure L figured it out too.
Light was Kira.
Kira, no, Light murdered L.
I pushed Light away and took L in my arms. “Stay away!” I shouted at Light, tears now poured from my eyes. I felt sick. Sick that I didn’t realize it a lot sooner. It was my fault. All mine.
My self loathing was interrupted by L weakly touching my cheek.I looked down at him, more tears flowed out, dripping onto his cheek. “I’m sorry! I’m sorry!” I chanted over and over again not tearing my eyes away from his.
L just weakly smiled and mouthed out, “Don’t be.”
His hand dropped from my face. I was in denial; he couldn’t be dead! All I could do was sit there and cry over L’s lifeless body. My heart shattered and broke, it hurt so much.
“It’s not fair,” I mumbled over and over. Matsuda helped me upand escorted me out of the room, no matter how much I shouted, kicked and threw a fit it would never change anything. I just refused to accept it. Kira was right there but I had no solid evidence!
“It’s not fair!” I screamed once more before I was completely out of the room. I knew Light had that smirk on his face. And I wanted nothing more than to wipe it off his face.
=At L’s Grave=
The light clicking oh my heels were heard as I made my way to L’s grave after his funeral. A bouquet of chrysanthemums and cypress leaves. Chrysanthemums signifying loyal love, while cypress leave signifying mourning. I gripped the bouquet tighter as I saw the last person I wanted to see ever!
Light stood over his gave, a look a triumph painted on his face. My anger grew as he noticed my presence. I just stared at the ground as Icame face to face with Light or should I say Kira.
“Jerrica,” He greeted casually with his grin widening.
“Kira,” I responded with malice hanging off every word.
“So you solved the case,” He mocked.
Ignoring his obvious attempt to spark my anger again. Icrouched down and gingerly placed the bouquet on his gave. I felt a the sting of tears as I read his name on his tomb stone “L Lawleit”.
I heard light take a few steps back, “Didn’t I tell you no gooddeed goes unpunished?” He made his leave his obnoxious laughter echoing in myeyes.
I clasped my hands over my ears to block out the sickening sound. I didn’t retaliate; this was my punishment, sent down by God, not Kira.I would not give Light the satisfaction of seeing me cry again. Waiting for him to be out of eye sight, I made sure I was safe. Safe to cry in front of the man whom I still loved.
“I promise no good deed will I attempt to do again.”
**Omake**
