Summary: Rin Asano was ordinary – well, that was a lie. Rin is everything but ordinary. But after she helps a young woman by sending an envelope to Sakura TV, she is placed under the suspicion of being the Second Kira. LxOC


Previously:

She would prove once and for all that she was smarter than Light; that she could beat him at his own game. She will force him to reflect on all the mistakes he has made, and all the mistakes he would never get the chance to make. She would not only destroy him, but make it look like L and the task force were the ones to do it.

No more Kira.

No more Light Yagami.

No more Rin Asano.


November 5th, 2004

As soon as Light and L went into the investigation room, Matsuda began to yell; "Ryuzaki! What's the meaning of all this?" His loud voice slightly echoed off the walls, "You somehow got approval from another country to use the notebook for an execution?"

The detective in question simply took a seat in his desk. "Watari, excellent work. Thank you." L spoke to the computer screen in front of him, where a gothic style W as showing.

"Not at all." Was his reply.

"First thing's first, please make arrangements to transport the notebook immediately."

"Right."

"Ryuzaki," Light spoke, "What are you trying to do?"

L tapped his spoon, which he had just used to mix the copious amounts of sugar into his hot drink, onto the Death Note, where a small bit on the corner was ripped out. "I'm going to test out the notebook, for real."

"We can't do that," Aizawa yelled out in anger and partial shock, "There's no point in testing it when we know that its power is real."

Matsuda nodded, "And besides, who's going to write the name? If someone writes in the notebook, they have to obey the thirteen-day rule and keep writing names forever."

"It's already been worked out," L felt like smirking, "The person who will write in the book is a criminal scheduled to be executed in just over thirteen days. If he is still alive after thirteen days, he will be pardoned from execution."

Chief Yagami opened his mouth, "But still-" However was cut off from L yelling.

"We are very close!" He yelled. Rin didn't think she had ever heard L yell that loud, or show that much emotion before. "If we work this out, the entire case will be solved."

As if on queue (which, it was for the most part), the power went out. Using the distraction, Rin ducked out of the room, not hesitating in the slightest. She had enough time to hesitate earlier when she wrote the names in the notebook – but she didn't, and she won't. There's no point now.


Stepping into a random room, she quickly wrote the name the Shinigami had given her earlier. She briefly wondered if the orphanage in England had something to do with the old man, but ignored the feeling.

At that moment, she felt the pull of the power of the Death Note. She was no longer in control.

Rin's hands slowly began to write.


"Watari?" L whispered, just before the words 'all data deleted' appeared on the screen.

"Data deletion?" Aizawa asked, "What's going on?"

L didn't know exactly what was going on except for the one thing – Watari was dead, heart attack probably. Meaning that Kira knew his name. Kira, or -

"I told Watari to delete all information in the event that something would happen to him." It wasn't time to get emotional at his father figures death. If he was correct, which he usually was, then it was too late. Ignoring the words of shock coming from the people behind him, he turned to the Chief. "Where's the Shinigami?" Then, he noticed something else. "Where's Rin?"

Bolting into action, L stood up and ran out the door, followed by the shocked ex-police officers. He didn't have to wait long before he walked into the only room with an open door to find something he hoped he wouldn't find.

There sat Rin Asano, the smarted woman he had ever met – writing into a black notebook that eerily looked like the one he was tapping just minutes before. Through the dim, red light he saw what she was writing, and what she had written before.

Two Ls were written.

Matsuda's reaction was surprising. As everybody else stared at her in shock, he shot her with expert precision. The bullet went through her right arm, forcing her to drop the pen. Her head snapped up as she yelled in pain. "Light!" She growled.

Light?

Instead of stopping, she chose to continue. The blood dripping down her index finger gave her a perfect ink as she wrote the next letter in his name, 'a' and then a 'w', and then another 'l'. She knew his name.

Matsuda chose that moment to shoot her, but instead of her arm that time, he shot her in the chest two times, to make sure, before dropping the gun from his hands in shock.

Light looked at the woman in shock. This was not a part of his plan – where was that damn Shinigami?

"Rin must have been the Second Kira..." L muttered, before turning his head to Light Yagami. If she was the Second Kira, that meant that the thirteen day rule was indeed false. "Chief Yagami, grab the notebook from her hands, show it to me."

The Chief did exactly that. L turned through the rules, and to the back of the notebook. Just like he suspected, no extra rules. "There's no thirteen-day rule on this notebook. The back page is blank."

He turned to Light. "Isn't that convenient?"

Light couldn't help the shock that slipped onto his face. "I don't know what you mean."

"You know exactly what I mean, Kira."

L didn't even have to think about it – the chances of Light being Kira was 99%.

And Light knew that. So, instead of using his words, he chose to back out of the room and run. The faint sounds of footsteps chasing him were ignored.

Few moments later, Light found himself on top of the roof – all will forgotten. His body turned calm, all stress disappearing from him altogether. Light felt something which he hadn't felt in a long, long time – peace. Peace and acceptance. And that scared him.

"I was a god!" He yelled, "I am a god."

His father, his poor father, stood there staring shocked at Light. "What do you mean by this, Light?"

"I was a god, and you!" He pointed to L, "You can't defeat a god."

"I believe I just have." Was L's response.

"No!" He backed onto the small railing on the edge of the roof, a wide and evil smirk on his face. "No, you don't understand. This world is full of evil – of filthit needs to be cleansed. You all don't understand. I'm saving the world."

"No, you're not." L replied calmly, despite his inner emotions, "You're a murderer."

Light simply laughed. "I am a god." Were his last words as he jumped off of the investigation building. It was over – Rin had won.

The moment his body hit the floor was the moment the Kira investigation ended for good.


A/N: And that's the end!

Merry Christmas!

I will soon be rewriting the story, making a few changes while I'm at it (I feel the rewrite should have a happier ending). In the rewrite Rin will change the actual story more, instead of it being just a telling of Death Note with a different ending.

Thank you for all the reviews, follows and favourites.

I will tell you guys when the first chapter of the rewrite is up. Thank you for reading, and have a good new year.
