Light walked through the To-Oh University campus, admiring the falling cherry blossom petals around him. The sight was beautiful, although the last thing on his mind. After all, he was Kira. He was the New World’s God. L, he who had opposed that God— his enemy, his biggest rival— hadn’t shown his face on campus that day, surprisingly. That didn’t surprise Light, however. After all, he had spent all of his time trying to catch him, Kira, and hardly had time for anything else. It didn’t help that another nuisance had entered the picture that previous night.
Light groaned as the idea of Misa Amane crossed his mind. That girl was a liability. She would be his downfall, taking his perfect world and smashing it to bits. Thinking about her alone made his blood boil. That idiot…
“Light!” A familiar voice called out to him, breaking his train of thought. Light turned around to see the source of the noise.
