Chapter 6:Lebensmüde

*two week time skip*

Kira pov

I let out a yawn as I stretched my body. "Slept like a log..." I mumble, rubbing my eyes. The sun bled through my curtains, like a open wound. I opened up the curtains, and my eyes dazzled upon seeing a saturated sunrise. It was a plethora of colours; pink, violet, apricot orange & baby blue. It was truly a work of art.

'Perks like these are one of the reasons why I quite like waking up early. Only I get to see this in the morning while everyone sleeps. That thought pleases me to the very core of my being.'

I managed to get out of bed. I grabbed my fresh, clean work clothes, and went off to have a shower, just so that I'll be fresh for the day, and so that I won't smell weird. After that, I then went along to clean up my belongings.

'Today, I move out of Itami & Ace's place, so that I can move into a house of my own. No more relying on them for living.'

I bought a house that was enough for me. Since I get paid a lot of money for this job, I could spend my money on a nice, modern house that was big enough for me. It was a single storey house, and had one bathroom, a master bedroom with a ensuite, a reasonable sized lounge and a nice new kitchen. When I get off work, is when I go into my new house, and spend my first night. The past few days, we (Itami, Ace, Marco & Thatch) had all pitched in with getting some things sorted with furniture, and moving everything in. Itami & I, had of course, had the job of choosing everything, while the guys moved it all in, while I also decided where everything went. I got handed the keys two nights ago.

'I can now finally live how I want to live. I don't have to worry about anything.'

I stared at myself in the mirror. My eyes glazed over my hair, that was reaching down to my lower back. I picked a piece up, and twirled it in between my fingers. "Its so long..."

*flashback, before Josiah was abusive*

I let out a whiny sigh, "God my hair is such a mess!" Josiah looked over to me, "No it doesn't." he said. I pout angrily at him, "I'm jealous." I point accusingly at him, "You're lucky! You get to hide your hair under a beanie! I want to cut all my hair off some days...." I growl. He chuckled, "Yeah well, you get to style your hair in cute styles." he picked up a piece of my hair, and twirled it in between his fingers, "And besides....I love your hair. Its perfect."

I blushed, "Chu~." I puffed. He rolled his eyes, but laughed either way.

*flashback end*

"Its perfect, you say...?" I whispered to nobody in particular. I clench some of my hair in my fist, "Well....I was thinking about trimming it anyways..." I looked outside, "Maybe I should make a quick pitstop at work...and maybe ring in saying that I may be late."

*timeskip*

"いらっしゃいませ！！"　The people working chorus. I looked around, and saw hairdressers flocking around their customers. They were cutting, dying, or doing something else with their hair.

A woman noticed me, and smiled. She seemed friendly. She had long black hair tied in a low ponytail, chocolate brown eyes, and tan skin. "How can I help you?" she asked as she walked up to me. She wore all black: black jeans, black ankle boots that Itami would kill for (you know, the grunge type of boots), a black blouse & a Star of David necklace. I notice that hugging one of her fingers, was a present moon ring. A name tag sat on her shirt. Her name was Kyla.

I smile, "I'd just like a trim, thanks." I replied. "Cool, think you could follow me? I'll get you sitting down." I nod, and followed her inside. She sat me down, and draped one of those hair dresser blankets that keeps all the cut hair off your clothes. "Your hair is so pretty!" Kyla comments. I blush, "Thank you." "How short will you like it?" she asked. I was silent for a moment before I answered, "Only just a little trim. You know like, so that it only reaches halfway my back?" It was Kyla's turn to be silent, before she answered, "Right, I can do that! I'll do what I can."

She got out her scissors, and I watched as the scissors nibbled into my hair.

*timeskip*

I walked inside the lobby, and stood in front of Narumi's desk. She looked up, and she gasped when she saw me, "K-Kira-sensei!" she gasped. I blinked, "What's wrong, Narumi?" I asked. "Y-You trimmed your hair!" she gasped.

My hair was now halfway down my back. Sure its still long, but I can't bear to cut off all of my hair. I love having long hair. I like this length on me as well. But jeez, I didn't realise that it was going to be that noticeable! "Is it really that noticeable?" I asked with a chuckle. She nods, "You've always had such beautiful long hair!" Narumi blushed, "I...I was jealous, you know?" I blinked a couple times, feeling stunned, before giggling, "Really? Its really hard to manage, you know." I answered. "It was still amazing hair! B-but I'm not saying that your hair now isn't amazing, it still looks great!" she quickly adds. I chuckle some more, "Thank you, Narumi. Now I best be going." I winked, "Duty calls."

I left Narumi's desk, and went to my office. When I got there, I tied up my hair in a pony tail, as I didn't want it to get in my way while I worked. Just as I was sitting down, a knock on my door sounded throughout my office. I looked over to the door, "Come in!" I call. Walking in, was one of my underling doctors, Yume. "Kira-sensei, I'm sorry to disturb you, but we need help with one of our recently arrived patients." He reported. "Huh? Really? Well show me the way. And fill me in with whats happened."

We marched out of my office, Yume telling me of what happened to the patient. "Its a young lady. Reports say that she was doing a early morning run when she rolled her ankle severely." He reports. My mind milled as he filled me in some more. He mightily thrusted the door open, and all around, doctors were treating patients in A & E. Yume lead me over to one of the beds where the curtains were drawn for privacy. Yume flicked the curtains back.

"Dr Allastor D Lilith is here to see you now, Miss Yatsume."

My body suddenly flinched, as her last name rang throughout my body.

'Yatsume.'

Lying on the bed, was a petit woman. She had short black hair (A/N:Styled like Nojiko's), and grey eyes. She wore active wear, but her left ankle was sitting high to keep it levelled. "Kira-sensei, this is Yatsume Kyona." Yume introduced.

'Its you!'
