《Death Note : A New Story》Offering
Advertisement
I bought a kilos worth of apples and returned home where Ryuk was reading my death note.
Kira: "Leave the book. I tell you in detail of what I'm going to do if you really want to know."
Ryuk: "You finally decided to cuddle up? Typical of you humans."
Kira: "Here. I brought you some apples. Eat as many as you like. But before you do, tell me this. Why do you like apples so much?"
While munching the whole bag of apples, Ryuk responded, "Haven't I told you already? The apples where I'm from just aren't as juicy as in this world."
Kira: "Now I'll tell you what I've been thinking."
I sat down on my chair, laid back and sighed.
I looked up and spoke,
"You act out of your desperate nature, craving for something more. Yet in the end, when you gain what you wanted, it isn't enough. You crave more. Humans are similar to you in that way. In fact, all living beings search for something more, something better to no end. We live our entire lives searching for true meaning; but I'm different from the rest. I see an ant's perspective instead of the bigger picture, knowing there's more to explore, knowing, that the truth is waiting to be discovered. Because, I found a part of the truth long ago, the only part that mattered."
Ryuk: "Oh? And what's that?"
Kira: "Nothing matters in this world. Whether you're rich or poor, kind or hateful, strong or weak; there's always a time when you face a repercussion. And by the time you're done facing this tedious cycle, you'll die in a moment's notice. That's the cycle of life. Beautiful and yet so ugly. In this cycle, I'll fulfil whatever task necessary to leave with my best performance; to complete this cycle once and never again. For that, if I have to abandon my perspective, my reputation, I will."

The Right Place At The Wrong Time
"What will you feel if, by inevitable circumstance, you never see your most beloved ever again?" ~~~ In the year 2000, 18-year-old Steven Vincenzo moved from the Philippines to the USA due to his father's promotion. They settle down in a small neighborhood known as Izzaya, in a city called Haggrew. Just a few days after moving, he finds out about a dark past from the Prohibition Era that still haunts the neighborhood, a dark past full of grizzly murders and kidnappings. Determined to know more about it, he finds out that there are ties to an old abandoned house he always passes by in the neighborhood, seeing it as a lead. Hesitant at first, due to the fear of breaking and entering. In order to find out more, he needed to go into the abandoned house where he finds a mysterious door that isn't like any other in the house. The infamous door that was presumed to be "The Culprit's Room." He enters the room where he suddenly got sucked in by an unstoppable force. He wakes up outside the abandoned house, to a confused girl in front of him trying to get him back into his senses. This girl was wearing vintage clothing and had quite a distinct accent that Steven had never heard of before, except in movies and TV series. Looking around, he knew something was definitely wrong. The abandoned house looked newly built along with other old houses in the vicinity. Trying to understand the situation he's in with all the clues he has, he eventually asks the girl what year it currently was to confirm his speculations. To this, the girl replies with a serious tone, "1927." Steven doesn't know what to do with all this information. Will he be happy that he could know more about the dark past and possibly try preventing it? Will he be distressed in trying to figure out how to come back to his own time?

Our main character (a cat) adventures with his friends and encounters many situations.Author's Note:Hello. This is my first story. Though I hesitate to call it such. It is supposed to be relatively relaxed for the most part. Any constructive criticism is welcome. My updates will be slower than a snail and my chapters are relatively short so deal with it please and don't murder me. Romance should come in later. Thank you~
