Death doesn't scare me [L x Reader] • Death Note

Chapter 49 | risky move

Remember, Remember, the 5th of November.

The day L would have died if you hadn't touched that death note paper in lights wallet all that time ago. Instead of taking his last breath in your arms, he was standing before the taskforce alive and well.

Two shinigami behind him, watching as a risky move was about to happen.

He held up the death note in a plastic evidence bag for the taskforce to see, at long last they had the weapon. And now with Higuchis arrest and confession, they had the proof it was real and the only thing left would be to have the government file it as a weapon of mass destruction, and the case could go to court and pass.

That was already in process, there was another thing they needed to prove. Lights connection to it all.

And you and L knew how, even if it was a risk.

"This is it, this is the weapon. It looks like a normal book, but behind me stand two shinigami that prove it's real" L explained.

"Uh... I don't see any-" Matsuda began.

"Hang on. Let me explain. You need to touch it in order to see it. You'll only be able to see one as this book is connected to them, the other one is connected to the missing book and the only reason me and (y/n) can see him is because of a pure accident that happened... in Light Yagami room"

As usual, the taskforce grew irritated at L for accusing Light. Light himself scoffing at the millionth accusation.

"When I went to put the cameras in his room, I fell off the desk and knocked some things over. There's footage from about 34 different angles to prove that. I picked everything up and suddenly I was able to see the shinigami when Light came home as I watched over the cameras. It took me a while to figure it out but there was a single slip of paper in his wallet that I knocked over, I put it back. I touched it. I touched it, and since it was a clipping from the death note I can see Ryuk. That paper should still be in Lights wallet, he hasn't touched it since he put it there completely forgetting about it" you explained.

"Tch, who'd believe that? Paper makes you see shinigami?" Light scoffed.

"Look in your wallet Light"

If he touched the slip of paper he'd see Ryuk, but he wouldn't remember he was Kira yet. You need to touch the whole book for that. Rem told you that, as she was going to use that trick in Misa to tell her about Higuchi but then Ryuk starting getting a little obsessed with you and L and she knew that things would only get dangerous for Misa if she started becoming suspicious to you and L again with your extra knowledge from Ryuk.

Light glared at you, taking out his wallet and digging around for the paper. Finding it at the bottom buried under coins, he picked it up and pulled it out.

"This thing? This mealy thing? Yeah right. You and L are getting desperate" Light sassed.

You pointed over at L, and Light followed your gaze. Sure enough, Ryuk towered behind him making Light jump in fright upon laying eyes on the shinigami.

"Believe me now?" You sassed back.

Ryuk laughed at his previous companions reaction, as the taskforce slightly panicked at Light seemingly hallucinating in front of them.

"Long time no see hey Light?" Ryuk laughed.

"B-but- what?"

You and L snickered under your breath, watching the pathetic wannabe god cower at the sight of his old shinigami buddy.

"Light? What wrong are you actually seeing something?" Chief Yagami asked.

It was all going to plan. No one but you and L would touch the death note. The taskforce would touch the paper in Light wallet and a torn page from Rems book. That way Light and Misa wouldn't get any memories back and make them more of a risk. The risk in this plan was having Light know that the death note exists.
