Twilight Finds The Death Note
L.
Previous ChapterNext Chapter"Discord? Why in Equestria are you in my house?" asked an annoyed Twilight, "And what's with all the lightning and everything? Go away!" He just shrugged it off and said, "Well at least I don't steal other ponies books, do I?"
Becoming even more annoyed at Discord, Twilight narrowed her eyes and said, "You took the elements of harmony! Plus, I don't have any book of yours!" Ponting towards the door she ordered, "Now please, get out or I'll call the cops!"
The demon then smirked and made a chair appear. "Well, it would appear that your not in the best situation with the cops are you. Considering you killed a pony. I'm just here because I have to be!" He motioned to the desk were the book lay. "It's the rules and are you not the little goodie two shoes who all ways plays by the rules?"
"What do you mean it's the rules?" Questioned the alicorn when she moved in front of the book as if to protect it, "Oh, and I found this book, it's mine!" Discord's smile grew even bigger.
"Key word being 'found'. I dropped it!" He teleported the note into his hands, "Oh and seeing you fall into the dirt like that was hilarious!" The princess snorted with frustration, "Well would you care to explain!?"
"Obiously, you already know that this notebook can kill, not the most useful but whatever. That's my book, I dropped it somewhere and it just happened to drop in front of you. The most boring pony in all of Equestria..." Followed by a sigh, "Well since you came along and took it, I'm bound to you until you die or I write your name in my death note."
Twilight stepped away. Discord had become that much more disturbing in that explanation alone. "Hey? Twilight? Breakfast is ready? Are you going to eat?" Called spike from dowstairs.
"You do know I can turn invisible? He can't hear me either." He said as if it was obvious, "Just go..."
Upon going down the stairs she noticed five familiar faces. "Oh, hi Twilight." Greeted Flutter Shy. Stepping cautiously down the stairs before saying, "What are you girls doing here?"
"WELL, DIDN'T YOU SEE THE STORY ABOUT THAT PONY AT THE JAIL WHO HAD A HEART ATTACK WE ALL THOUGHT THAT REALLY SUCKED! SO WE WENT DOWN TO THE POLICE STATION AND WE ASKED HOW WE COULD HELP AND THE NICE STALLION SAID WE COULD MAYBE PROBABLY PLAUSIBLY HELP WITH THE INVESTIGATION!" Yelled Pinkie Pie enthusiastically.
Confused, Twilight asked "Wait, what? What about the investigation" So, they all gathered in the kitchen for breakfast. Spike served them and then excused himself.
"You haven't heard about the heart attacks being going on. It's the biggest story around." Informed Rarity, "there have been four this week!" Then Twilight began to sweat. "I can't seem suspicious." She thought
"Of course I have. You see, I was visiting one of the prisoners when he died." Then she began to lie, "He just sort if collapsed and I didn't know what to do so I just called for somepony."
Rainbow Dash then got up and shouted, "Well we can't just sit around and wait for more ponies to die! We have to do something, right Twi?" Applejack nodded in agreement, "Twilight, you gotta help us."
"How can I help? You know what? What if I can't help?" Twilight lashed out. She had to change the subject somehow. "What if I get killed!? What if you get killed?!"
"What if you were the pony who gets killed? What if your just waiting in there just to get killed?!"
"GIRLS!" Shouted Flutter Shy pushing them apart, "This is no time to be fighting!" Rainbow sat back down and crossed her hooves.
"I guess so, but it's not like we can do this by ourselves. We need some sort of help..." complained Dash. Twilight sighed and offered, "I suppose I could drop in ounce in a while and help a little bit." Soon after they left for Twilight to think for a while.
Meanwhile, in Canterlot a conference was being held. Princess Celestia sat at the peak of the hall with Luna by her side. Voices filled the room and was almost deafening but suddenly the night princess spoke up. "Pardon me, but don't we have a case to solve and I don't believe that arguing like this will do any help. Now if you will excuse me I have duties to attend to." Her hoof steps echoed around the room and when she left you could hear a pin drop.
"I have decided to ask help from this new detective named L." Celestia began in a serious voice, "nobody knows the whereabouts or identity of this pony. All we can be sure is that he or she is the only one capable of solving this case. L requests the full cooperation from the police to catch the so called Kira."
At that moment the wall behind her lit up with revealing "L" on a large banner. An ominous voice boomed out from nearby speakers and it says, "Greetings, I am L. I have decided to keep my identity I secret to not to endanger myself. In my occupation many ponies will try to harm or even kill me which is partly the reason I have asked for the Equestrian police's assistance. It is quite clear that I will be able to uncover the truth behind this case without additional help."
"I suppose I should tell you the plan..."
"Hmm, seems your earning a bit of popularity." Compliments Discord and turned into a fan girl, "Can I get an autograph?"
"No look here! All of these ponies are supporting Kira, I guess that's the name they've given me. Too bad everypony thinks I'm a stallion... This is the proof that I'm doing something right!" Said Twilight cheerfully while Ponting at the newspaper. There were various articles about the mystery pony Kira, The bringer of justice. Surprisingly the majority were pro Kira and supported Twilight's actions.
"So is there anything else this book can do?" Questioned the alicorn, "For exampel, if you were to take a page out would it still work?"
Discord looked puzzled at Twilight's question. "Well... Nah! I wouldn't know anyway.. this isn't my kind of thing." Just to be on the safe side she teared a piece from the back, folded it around a pencil and put it behind her ear. Just in case she was in a situation were she didn't have the death note.
"If this isn't your thing, then why are you doing it?" Asked Twilight, "it's not like you get paid or anything."
"I have some friends from were what your doing is normal. Anyway, I visited them and I managed to nab a book. That used to belong to some guy named Light. Or was it Raiot? I took it back here and accidentally dropped it, it's not mine anymore when it touches Equestrian dirt. I managed to make my own note with my powers but it's not as good."
Suddenly a loud bang came from downstairs and a deep voice said, "All report to town square now!" and of course Twilight reported at the square and a large magical field surrounded it. "Seems like the all seeing spell," whispers discord (even though nobody could hear him anyway) "they can see all of us and we can see all of them..."
Before long a light green pegasus walked into view. His mane was tattered and untied and his coat had many stains and bruises. His eyes filled with hate and betrayal when he sat at the desk and began to speak. "Greeting, I am L. Otherwise none as Lucky stars" His voice scratchy and hard to understand. "I am trying to find the killer of many inmates in asylums over Equestria. That killer is Kira. If you are watching this may I just say what your doing is wrong and nopony appreciates it. You. Are. Evil..."
Something snapped inside Twilight. Those three words. Those tiny little three words. "You are evil". She ever so subtly took the piece of paper and layed it on the ground and writes down "Lucky Stars" and forty seconds later the guards in Canterlot were just dragged him away. Then a white screen with just the letter L appeared.
Twilight was caught off by surprise as she listened at the mysterious pony behind the microphone. "Oh so you do exists Kira? I don't know what to say. Now, please you have already killed the innocent so kill me..."
All of the ponies looked around but found nothing. Trying not to stand out, Twilight copied the crowd. "Are you scared?" L taunted, "So you don't want to kill me or you can't. I think I'll go for the latter. By the way, I think I have narrowed down you whereabouts quite a bit. This message was only shown to Ponyville citizens. The first murder was a young pony named Iron Sword a robber in Ponyville. Hello and goodbye, Kira!" Followed by a long beep then quite.
"I'm not evil... I'm JUSTICE!"
