Ryuzaki's Predicament
This is a fan fic i started a long time ago i might write more if it's liked enough.
Ryuzaki's predicament.
Ryuzaki sat in a dark room his face lit by the dim light of his laptop screen surveying over the evidence in the Kira case. He had been working on this case for some time now but the only epiphany he had come to realize was that he was no closer to solving the case then he was when he started. At least when he started there was only one Kira to worry about causing the deaths of the world's criminals. Now there was three Kira's running about and he was getting desperate in his search. The only finger's that seemed to be pointed towards any sort of suspect was the son of the chief of police, Light Yagami. The problem was that recent footage of the spying on the Yagami Household showed no signs of him being Kira. Yet something inside the dark recesses of his brain lurked this daunting feeling that Light Yagami was Kira and he was handling the whole thing right under his nose. He needed to turn the 3% in his head into a 0% so his suspicions could be confirmed.
He felt he had already set a dangerous path due to the fact he revealed himself to Light and enrolled as a student in his school as his ploy to figure out if he and Misa Amane were the original and second Kira. But to no avail that ended up a dead path and now he was faced with a decision. He was currently watching the two of them as they were both locked in their individual cells. It had been 14 days and the 15th was closing in and he knew he would have to give his assessment soon because the confinement was wearing on everyone. He felt a tug in his chest seeing Light sitting there trembling in his cell knowing that members of his own task force were forced to sit in a cold cell while he simply watched them as time slowly ticked away. He sighed and began to type on his laptop his write up on what he came to understand in the case and his view of the confinement.
The 15th day reeled its head and he agreed to himself and to the others of the task force that this will be the day of the release of all three of the current bodies in the cells. He didn't feel good about releasing Misa or Light but he knew that any more time in the cells would be rendered useless with the current information given. Even though he still felt that there was a chance that Light could be Kira he felt a sense of ease around him. He never really had many friends in his past and it tore away in his mind that one of the first real friends he's had could possibly be a mass murderer. He had a plan though to squash those theorys and prove once and for all that Light couldn't be Kira. He tugged at a pair of handcuffs that sat in a circle around him as he sat with his knees to his chin in a soft cushioned chair. The chain was long and offered whoever was attached to it excessive movement.
"I must be crazy." He thought to himself as he watched the monitors in the task force's head quarters as Light, Misa and Soichiro were being released and father and son were reunited. He chipped a small piece of chocolate off into his mouth and sucked on the soft milky flavor and sighed leaning his head back staring at the ceiling.
"Why do you effect me so Light-kun" He whispered in the darkness of the room.
He shook his head and looked back at the monitors watching the camera that had been placed in Soichiro's car as it drove to the disclosed location under the bridge and carefully observed every detail as it played out his heart was pounding as Soichiro aimed his gun at Light and the look of terror that shown.
"What are you going to do now Light-kun?" He asked as if he was in the same room as he was and his anxiousness turned to relief when the blank fired and a wave of relief washed over him as well as all in the car. He exhaled and took another bite of chocolate the sweet richness a relief to the stressful day that had occurred his mind still filled with questions that were unanswered
but he closed his eyes and tried to let his mind rest although it never seemed to happen and it cost him sleep more than anything of course he never really slept for more than 3 hours anymore. His body felt achy after spending so much time in front of all the monitors and his head throbbed when he turned on his table side lamp. He sat up slowly and walked over to the bathroom and stepped inside stripping off his clothes as he stepped into the shower.
He turned on the water feeling it wash over his body as it gradually got warmer and warmer the slow pouring of water a welcoming relief as it ran over his pale body and matted his black hair over his face. He felt his muscles relax and his body loosened up as the warm water took it's effect when he suddenly heard a knock at the door and hear it slightly open and he heard a voice," Hey Ryuzaki are you in here?"
He stammered slightly in his head felt like he just tripped over a cable it was Light," Ye-yes Light I'll be out in a minute" His heart skipped a beat as the door closed and he turned off the shower standing there in the light steam of the shower stepping out slowly drying himself and re dressing himself he stared at himself in the mirror and noticed his cheeks were flushed with a light pink pigment.
"The shower must have been hotter than I thought." He thought to himself. His hands went to their usual position into his pockets and he pushed open the door walking out his hair still slightly dampened from the shower and a sly smile crossed his face seeing all the members of the task force Light included standing all around a table with assorted food items. A small celebration in cheer to welcome back the members of their group that were confined for a time that seemed like an eternity. He walked slowly over to the table and his eyes were immediately brought to the small pile of doughnuts that lay in a neatly stacked pyramid.
He felt his mouth water and reached for it and his hand met another looking up he saw the hand belonged to Light. Light removed his hand and chuckled, "Sorry about that Ryuzaki you take the first one." He did take it and smiled as he took a bite the sweat vanilla flavor inside the doughnut filled his cheeks as he felt a sense ease in this short time period of relaxation and celebration. Although looking back into light's eyes he still couldn't help but wonder if those could be the eyes of a killer. His hand gripped tightly although without his realization he crushed the doughnut he had in his hand.
Light began laughing as he took a doughnut from the stack as well and laughed," I think you killed your doughnut Ryuzaki."
He opened his hand to find the pastry crushed in his hand and he wiped it off with a napkin his face flushing once again feeling silly he let himself get so much into his head at a time like this. He sighed to himself and grabbed for some of the strawberry cake and put it on his plate using the tiny fork to take a small bite of the sweet whipped cream. The hand cuffs caught his eye that were circled around his recliner and looked back to where Light was sitting his plan coming back into his head wondering just how he would react.
It was rather unorthodox, but it would be the only way he would know. He decided not to worry about it and not let any worry show. The party soon came down to a closing and he knew that now would be the best time to carry out his plan. He grabbed the hand cuffs and quickly inserted them into the room he'd be staying in and soon Light would be too for he planned to keep Light within a 6 foot radius from him at all times. He had already informed Mogi to lead Light and Misa to head into the room he had just entered and he waited there for a short period of time and soon the door opened and in they walked.
"So Ryuzaki what did you want to talk about?" Light questioned closing the door after Misa.
"Yeah," Misa pouted," Make this quick so I can go out with Light-san."
He grinned to himself and a sly smile went across his lips as he stared at them both and then his eyes met Light's," I'm afraid that's not going to be allowed. I still have raised suspicions on your innocence Light-kun so until further notice you are not allowed to leave my side for more than a 6 foot radius."
A sudden silence eroded through out the room which felt like an eternity but didn't really last more than 5 seconds.
"Wah what are you saying Ryuzaki I have to stay here at headquarters," Light asked in a surprised voice.
"That's exactly what I'm saying Light-kun you need to stay here with me to work on the Kira case and I still have my suspicions about you and can't afford to let you out of my sight."
A look of horror shook across Misa's face and her face flared up red and flailed her arms at him beating tiny little fists on his chest," ohhh you meanie you released Light-chan and yet you still don't trust him no fair you hogging him to yourself." As she was going through her rant Light walked up behind her and grabbed her by the back of the shirt and pulled her off him in a smooth stroke and his voice was calm and soft," Misa...you can't act that way...If Ryuzaki thinks that there is still a chance that I'm Kira and if I am I want to make sure myself. "Light's eyes met his and their eyes locked," Ryuzaki I will stay here if you think it is best."
It stunned him as he stared at the almost more suspect than friend. He hadn't expected it to go so well but none the less knew it would turn out this way from the planning he had set up while Light and Misa were in confinement. But the worst was yet to come as his eyes were led to the hand cuffs with the 6 foot long chain. This made Light tilt his head and look at him skeptically," What is it Ryuzaki?"
He bit his thumb in a small smile sucking on the end of his thumb tip his excitement for the reaction unfathomable.
