Kortnie thought she was just having a sugar crash after downing her seventh Pocky stick. But when she wakes up in a world dimly lit by moral ambiguity, detective monologues, and intense stares over potato chips, she realizes something's off. Very off.
She's in Death Note.
Not as a new Shinigami. Not as a secret mastermind. Nope. Just... as herself-an overly energetic, sweet-obsessed otaku who can't stop humming songs and quoting JoJo lines, dropped smack in the middle of Light Yagami's calculated crusade and L's sugar-fueled investigation.
Armed with nothing but her chaotic energy, obscure anime references, and an unmatched ability to make any situation ten times more confusing than it needs to be, Kortnie finds herself inexplicably tangled in the heart of the Kira case.
And she doesn't even remember most of the plot.
Will she befriend L or annoy him into early retirement? Will Light see her as a threat or just a walking distraction? And how many times can one girl be kidnapped in one timeline before everyone collectively gives up?
One thing's for sure: the Death Note universe has never faced a variable quite like Kortnie. And Kira may have met his most confusing challenge yet.

SALL (Death Note)
The opportunity to make a difference doesn't come along often, and its very rare for fate to choose you. That's why you can't wait for a chance to come; you have to take it for yourself. When a mysterious, unknown person known as 'Kira' begins to clean up the world, Kokona Arakida decides that that is when her chance needed to come. She was going to help her god, some way. If she couldn't find him, she would try to find L for him. L was Kira's biggest threat to ruling Earth as a righteous god; if she could help to eliminate him, then she's made a difference in her life. If she could help to bring him down, maybe she'd get to meet her god. And thus, the Special Agency to Locate L was born. *** *Completed*Complete
The third Kira- A death note fanfiction
What if the power to reshape the world came at the cost of everything you hold dear? Luna thought she could handle it. A Deathnote-a notebook capable of killing anyone whose name is written in its pages-wasn't just a tool for justice, it was her way to fix a broken world. But justice is never simple, and power is never clean. Once a calculated strategist with unwavering resolve, Luna's descent begins with small, justified sacrifices. Yet, as the lines blur between hero and monster, she loses more than she ever imagined: the love of a brother who betrayed her, the friendship of allies consumed by their own darkness, and the trust of the only person who ever truly understood her-L, the detective who could see through her lies. Now, haunted by the weight of her choices and hunted by those she once cared for, Luna finds herself spiraling into chaos, caught between redemption and ruin. As the world crumbles under the shadow of the Deathnote's power, she must confront the ultimate question: how far will she go before she loses everything, including herself? Dark, emotional, and deeply human, The Third Kira explores the devastating consequences of wielding ultimate power-and the fragile hope of finding light in the darkest places. For fans of moral dilemmas, complex relationships, and the thin line between hero and villain, this is a story you won't forget. [disclaimer] I do not own death note, I do own my OCs Luna & kiri and the plot changes The plot does stray from some areas of the original. Originally made around 2019/2020Complete
Bittersweet
High school is when it happened. Criminals start to die, and I start to be more careful of what I'm doing. But we all knew about the one who kills them all... Kira.... I don't believe the fact that he's a god like everyone says... What's more weird, other than Kira, is the fact that the top student in school, Light Yagami, wants to befriend me. College life is the next step in my life. After college I want to join the police force, work under cases and such. Kira is still going around, killing people, now starting to kill innocent people. Then, the person who I'm forced to sit with talks to me again... Light.. But I know that knowing Light... Makes me feel uneasy. Especially ever since I passed notes with him in high school. Ever since then, I saw something by his side at all times, a shinigami... Shinigami.. Gods of death... Then there's a notebook I noticed that Light had.. Death note... I think Light is Kira.. But then I meet L, a member of the group who's working on the Kira case, the best detective in Japan, the one person who hides his identity.... Can I tell him..? Can I trust him...? He seems to trust me enough to tell me that he's L. But there are a few things stuck in my head... Why did he offer me to help him? Why does he want me to help at all? Why does he want me by his side? Why does he want me to choose a letter as a name? Especially for broadcasting? L.... You care about me... Don't you? Or... Are you just trying to make me feel welcome..? This was originally going to have a character but then I decided to make it and L x Reader story. Your point of view will be written in first person, this is only because this is my first x reader story. But I hope you enjoy nonetheless. DISCLAIMER: I don't own anything from the anime Death Note, and I don't own you and your wonderful selves.Complete
