Death Note: Light x Reader: Rule With Me

Put to the Test

"Hey--" L was shocked when he turned around and saw the horrifying creature right in front of him. His eyes widened, his heart beat faster. The detective put his hands up in the air and let out a loud scream.

The rest of the people turned their heads to him. Souchiro rushed to him. "Ryuzaki-san! Are you alright?" he asked, alarmed.

"A...A...de-death..." L could not form the words he wanted to say, for he haven't seen anything that petrifying. Unfortunately, the chief and the others could not see the death god standing in front of them. So what he did is he tossed the Note to Souchiro and said: "Minna, touch the notebook!"

They obeyed the detective's orders. Finally, they were able to see Rem, the death god. The room was filled with screams and shouts. "Wh-What are you?!" one of them asked, pointing a gun at her. He was ready to fire at any time.

Rem took a step closer. The man fired. Seeing that he did not make a wound--or at least a scratch--at her, he fired twice more, then thrice, until he was out of ammo. "I am not a creature like you with flesh and bones," she said. "Give up; you can never kill me with those toys."

The rest of the people began to pull out their guns and fired shots at the death god. Still, not a single bullet created any damage to her. They were all scared--who knows what she might do to them. The room fell quiet for a moment.

"I am Rem, a death god," she finally confessed.

Their eyes widened in great shock. Some wanted to panic, but did their best to remain as calm as they could. Matsuda wanted to hide behind the chief, but managed to stand up in front of the god. L turned his back and shoved his hands into his pockets.

"W-Why are you here?" Souchiro asked in a hoarse voice.

"To get back the Death Note that you stole," Rem quickly answered.

Souchiro looked at L for an approval or disapproval. L glanced over his shoulder and grimaced. "No, not yet."

The death god frowned. "And why not?"

"I need to examine it. When the tests are completed, I can return this Death Note to you," L said.

Rem rolled his deadly eyes and sighed. "You won't succeed in your tests, L."

"Light-kun..." you said monotonously. You were sitting against the wall, hands resting on top of your knees, regretting what you have done to Misaki. He approached you, then sat beside you. "What's wrong?" he asked.

"I..." you fiddled with your fingers before you could open your mouth to speak, "thought she was...our ally...my friend..."

Silence filled the air. Light grabbed your hand and kissed your fingers gently. "We can't change the fact that Hirokazu-san is against us." he said. "She was no good to live the rest her life in this world anymore. That's why stop being upset."

"But..." you searched for the right words to respond with, "she's--"

You were cut off by your boyfriend. "There's no need to elaborate the unnecessary. What's important is that we're together, right?"

You gave a weak smile and nodded. Light gazed at your misty (E/C) eyes, and then to your lips. He closed his eyes and slowly leaned forward. Your face heated up. But still, you did the same--slowly closing the gap between you two, and--

"Light-kun?" a familiar voice called.

The two of you quickly pulled back and looked away, face as red as a tomato. "R-Ryuk, what is it?" Light asked in a husky tone.

The death god tilted its head and gasped. "Oh, did I disturb your, um, make-out session?"

Light threw the nearest object he could find to Ryuk's face. "Shut up!!" he exclaimed, cheeks burning. Ryuk let out a plummy chuckle. "Humans like you are really entertaining, you know," he said over another wave of laughter. You turned your head to your boyfriend. Seeing him in embarrassment was kind of funny, and cute at the same time. You joined in the death god's laughing spree. "Even you, (Y/N)-chan?" Light sighed deeply.

"He-heh! If only Rem was here to see this!" Ryuk said. The place suddenly turned quiet. you and Light exchanged glances. "Hey, where is Rem?"

Back in the headquarters, the detective intimidatingly stared at the Death Note and its pages, biting his thumb. The rest of the members were observing intently on how he does it. Miharu was sitting at the couch uncomfortably, since Rem is right beside her.

"What have you found out, Ryuzaki-san?" Matsuda asked curiously. He tipped his head over to take a closer look at it. L flicked his forehead. "Ouch!" the poor guy exclaimed. "What's wrong--"

"You're blocking the light," he replied, not taking his eyes of the Note. "Now, Miharu-chan, please play the live video of Kanzaki Kazou--considered a criminal and is know for abducting children and murdering them at the dark alleys of the streets at night."

Miharu obeyed. She stood up and walked over to the table, set down her laptop, and plugged in a red and silver USB, containing several different files, footages, and pictures. After finding the application, she played it and showed it to the men.

Kazou had slick, dark brown hair that reaches up to the top of his shoulders, fierce gray eyes, and a five o'clock. He seemed exhausted, probably from all of the kicking and tugging he did to try to escape.

"Kanzaki Kazou..." L grabbed one of the pens from an open pouch and began writing down the name of the criminal.

One of them started timing on his watch. Another watched what would happen. The laptop's screen is being recorded for future usage and evidence.

"36...37...38...39...40!"

Everyone turned their heads to the screen. Kazou's eyes suddenly opened wide. He breathed heavily and coughed continously. He screamed the words: "Help!! Anyone help!!" He reached out for the bars, but collapsed onto the cold cemented floor instead.

He was dead.

The members of the Kira investigation were surprised. Their jaws dropped, and their hearts pounded. The detective cracked a devilish smirk. "I've got you now, Kira," he said.

"No," the death god interrupted. "No, you won't..." She sent a deathly glare. "L Lawliet."
