Before you read: Ok everyone, due to a request from one person, during this chapter, I will be switching through both Izzy's and Destiny's point of views ok? Don't worry I will try my hardest to make sure that it's not confusing.
Chapter 6: The Mall Part 1 Izzy's point of viewI awoke this morning with the worst possible headache! What on earth happened yesterday? Wow…that's sad, I don't remember a thing!
I warn you all, Sugar is a drug! No lie!
Moving on to better things, since I have completely forgotten all of the events that took place yesterday after…taking the drug, I went to go ask Destiny.
As I thought, she was on the couch staring off into nothing. She would make a great statue! She didn't even look like she was breathing! Now that takes some serious skills.
"Morning Destiny!" I said cheerfully.
She gazed up at me, a little startled.
"Um…Izzy, you do know that it's 12:30 right?"
I looked over to the clock next to her.
Yup! She was right.
"Huh. I guess whatever happened yesterday really knocked me out."
"Yes it did…" She examined my expression before going on, "You don't remember do you?" she accused.
"Nope! Not a clue!" I said smiling.
She somewhat smiled back, then told me everything that happened.
Details and everything were included, but what do you expect? It's Destiny we're talking about!
When she finished, I could see a large smile on her face. I guess everything that I did yesterday entertained her.
Sigh, I only wish I could remember it for myself.
"I really agree with L getting a dog." Destiny said laughing.
"Ha ha! I wonder if he'll let me get one."
"More likely no then yes."
I sighed.
"You're probably right."
-Silence-
"So what time are we going to the mall?" I asked.
"Um….L said right after he got out of school."
"Ok, so what is going to happen exactly? I mean with the whole picking up Light thing and the fact that we smell like a couple of hobos."
She glared, "That last comment wasn't very nice. But L told me that since Watari always picks him up anyways, we were just going to go with him. Then as for Light, he will also be riding with us. Oh! And L left us some fresh clothes out on his bed."
"Sorry sorry. Really? We have to share a car with…." I shuddered as I said his name, "Light?"
"You are so dramatic! Why do you hate him so much?"
You don't even want to know.
"Why do you like him so much?"
She stopped at that question, deciding that it would just be better if she didn't answer that.
I stood up and walked out. I was a tad curious about what clothes Destiny was talking about. I stood right outside of L's room.
Whoa, I've never been in here before! Awesome! I wonder what strange and bizarre things lay on the other side of this door? Well, only one way to find out!
I entered the room.
-Gasp!-
The whole wall was covered in porn!
I kid I kid. L is way better then that…..at least I hope so. No, what was really in his room was….a bed….a closet…..a nightstand…..another nightstand…Wow his room is boring.
I looked onto his bed to see two pairs of jeans and two long sleeve, white shirts.
"We're going to look just like him!" I screamed in disgust.
I heard a -thunk!- in the other room and guessed that my yelling had startled Destiny enough to make her fall off the couch!
Poor her…..oh well.
"What on earth happened?!" She exclaimed as she ran into the room.
I pointed to the clothes on the bed.
"That's it?"
I nodded.
She stood there silently steaming. So I decided it would be better to explain my reasoning to her first.
"Look Destiny, as you know I have a very good sense of style, and also I do not like, a) wearing the same thing that someone else is wearing. And b) wearing something so…simple. I like making my outfits extravagant!"
She stared at me, her eye slightly twitching.
She sighed, "Oye vey, what am I going to do with you Izzy?"
I shrugged my shoulders, smiled and gave her a hug.
The next few hours, I'll just skip over, 'cause they weren't very interesting.
Destiny's Point of View Told you I'd do that!)
Watari entered our suite at around 2:00, by then both Izzy and I were dressed in L's attire. Izzy is still pouting over the clothes, while I am just happy that I have something clean to wear, besides this is only temporary.
So any ways, Watari came to escort us to To-ho University. I was very excited! I finally get to meet Light! It took all the self-control that I had to stop myself from giggling like some idiot.
The drive there seemed to take forever! I was so very anxious to see him in all his glory! I've always had a thing for hot, evil guys, and Light was perfect! I still don't understand what Izzy has against him. Sadly she knows more about him then I do. Well, she finished the series, I however was only on volume 4.
Well, at least I know we won't have any issues with who likes whom right?
Watari slowly pulled into the schools campus. I looked out the window frantically, my heart beating a mile a minute. I was almost certain that I would have a heart attack if I didn't calm myself down!
A heart attack…how ironic.
"Hey Destiny, lets wait for them outside!" Izzy said, interrupting my thoughts.
"Oh, sure."
We both stepped out of the black limo-ish car, and stood leaning against it.
"So, are you excited yet?" Izzy asked teasing.
"Oh no, not at all." I answered, my tone sarcastic.
She giggled. Then, she was just about to ask me something else, when I saw him.
My eyes widened and I gulped.
He was…gorgeous! Much better looking then in the manga! I could see his light brown hair shine from the sun. His walk was so elegant, so elite. He stood up straight in a position that said "I own all of To-ho". He was dressed in a button up shirt with a tie. I saved his face for last, knowing that my heart may stop once I saw it.
His expression, was a little upset. As if something had not gone the way he had planned. It also looked like he was trying as hard as possible to look normal. And I have to say, he did a pretty good job with that. His eyes were such a dark shade of brown, but they went so perfectly with his features.
If I died right now, I would be happy.
As he came closer, I heard Izzy ,muttering something under her breath.
"Damn guy walks like he has a stick up his a—
I slammed my heel onto her foot, and glared.
She jumped and held her breath. I could see her biting her lip. I guess I got her good.
"Good afternoon, Destiny-kun and Izzy." L said as he approached us.
I nodded slightly, and continued to focus all my attention on Light. He was now standing only four small steps in front of me. His eyes still hard. I guess this is pretty hard for him. I mean L still suspects him of being Kira and now he has to spend a few hours with him outside of school.
Poor Light, I can feel his pain.
"Light-kun this is Destiny-kun." L said gesturing his hand towards me.
Light smiled and shook my hand.
"It's nice to meet you Destiny."
I stared at his perfect face in aw. Izzy's sudden kick was what brought me back to reality.
"Oh! Um…you too." I said stuttering a little, then turning my face.
I looked at Izzy now, who was also being introduced to Light.
I saw how she looked at him with irritated eyes, and when he extended his hand to her, she unwillingly took it and said,
"Yo."
You'd think that she would at least try and look like she was happy to meet him, but no. She has to be difficult.
What will I ever do with her?
Izzy's Point of ViewAs the four of us got into the car, L decided that it would be best if Light sat in the middle of Destiny and I. God L! This is going to take all of the strength I have not to commit a murder.
So L sat in the front passenger seat, while Light was sandwiched in between Destiny and myself. I looked towards Destiny, she was practically drooling right now.
I however was in full pout mode. My arms crossed, bottom lip stuck out, and was staring out the window. I decided to make a list of things to do at the mall to keep myself occupied.
Number 1 on my list: Annoy Light.
Number 2: Embarrass Light.
Number 3: Beat up Light.
Number 4: Strangle Light.
Number 5: Hug L
Number6: Get something sweet.
I stopped right there.
Something sweet. I felt all of the saliva rush to the front my mouth. Uh oh!
I forgot that I normally don't like to eat sugar. Why you ask? I get addicted! No lie! I mean seriously addicted. Like I need sugar or else I'll go on withdrawal and believe me it's not a pretty sight.
But after what L saw yesterday, there is a good chance that he'll say no. Hmmmmm…..
"Izzy?" I heard someone ask.
I turned my head to look at L who I guessed had called my name.
"Yes?"
"Is something bothering you?" He asked concerned.
Yes, I don't like the fact that I have to sit next to this gay bastard.
"No, I'm fine." I lied.
He left it at that and turned around. I could see from the corner of my eye that Destiny was also staring at me.
These people are not used to me being so quiet…..why am I being so quiet?!
I wonder what would happen if I were to scream bloody murder right now?
Watari would probably have a heart attack. Then we would crash and die. But then Light would die! But, then I wouldn't be able to strangle him and make his life miserable. And L would die. So, instead of dying for the sake of the Kira case, he would die because of me…
All this thinking is starting to hurt my brain! I feel like Destiny!
"Are we there yet?" I asked.
"Not yet Izzy." L said.
-Five seconds later-
"Are we there yet?"
"No Izzy."
"How about now?"
"Izzy, I will tape your mouth shut if you keep asking me." L threatened.
Wow, he's mean to me!
"Not if I tape yours first!" I said.
"…."
"…"
"That didn't make sense Izzy." L stated.
"Neither do half of the random things that leave my mouth." I answered smiling.
"Yes, that is true."
"…"
-Three Minutes Later-
"MY LORD! ARE WE THERE YET?!"
"Yes." Light said.
"Really?"
"No."
"You can go burn in hell."
He looked at me shocked.
"What did you say?"
Are you deaf of something?
Before I could answer L said,
"Here we are."
"YAY!" I screamed forgetting that I was angry at Light.
xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
So anyways, now were here at the mall! L told both Destiny and myself that we were now in public, so we had to call him Ryuuzaki.
"That name is so hard to pronounce!" I whined.
L looked at me puzzled. I guess he forgot that I was American and couldn't speak Japanese.
"It's not that bad Izzy." Destiny said. "And aren't you good with language?"
"Well yeah, but I sound like a white girl when I say it! People are going to laugh at me more then usual. How about I call you R or something?"
L nodded.
"Where do we start?" Destiny asked.
"I dunno….." I started, "The candy shop!"
"NO!" L exclaimed.
"But R….I'm running vewy low on sugar today." I said putting my finger to my mouth.
"That is a good thing." He said.
How heartless!
"Fine. If you won't get it for me, I'll get the money by myself!" I said walking off, grabbing Destiny's arm.
"Now what exactly are you planning Izzy?" She asked.
"You'll see." I said smiling.
I dragged her right into the Japanese version of the Disney store with me. I could hear both L and Light following not too far behind.
This was going to be fun!
I let go of Destiny and walked to the costume department.
I had just pulled out two elf costumes when she asked,
"What are we going to do?"
"We're going to be Santa's little helpers!"
She muffled a laugh and grabbed the costume. I love Destiny, she's so easy going sometimes. And I needed her right now.
After we finished changing, we walked out to where L and Light were standing.
Their eyes both widened.
"Why are you two wearing that?" L and Light asked.
"You'll see."
Then Destiny and I both took our places in the middle of the store. We held out our elf hats and shouted,
"DONATIONS FOR SANTA CLAUSE!"
The looks on Light's and L's faces were priceless! Both of their faces turned a deep red. I could see Light pulling his hand through his hair and looking away like he didn't know us. I think L was suppressing a laugh. Wow, if he really thinks that we're funny, that will be a first!
"Come on everyone! Santa needs your support!" I said.
This little red haired kid came up to me and asked,
"Why does Santa need money?"
I bent down so that I could meet his eye level.
"Because little boy, Santa….uh…was kicked in the gut by Comet, and now he's in the hospital in need of surgery."
The boy looked like he was about to cry.
"B…But..w-why did Comet k-kick him?" He asked now tearing up.
Oh shit!
"Um…because...Santa forgot to feed him…and uh, he was in near death of starvation…so yeah he got angry and got revenge on poor old Saint Nick."
"….."
"…."
"Wzz….WAHHHHAAAA!" The boy howled.
I froze in my spot, too shocked to move or do anything. I watched as Destiny started talking to the boy, but he only ran out of the store. Yes, he was still crying on his way out.
"Santa is in need of surgery because Comet sought revenge?" Destiny asked blandly, "What were you thinking telling that to a little boy?!"
"…Oops." I said pressing my lips together.
"How about I try something?"
"Be my guest."
I honestly thought that I had a good idea! I mean, sure I went a little overboard, but it could have gotten us some cash.
Now Destiny decided that it would be more "appropriate" to sing Christmas songs instead.
So here we are, in our funny elf suits singing "Jingle Bell Rock" and holding our hats out to random people for cash.
This one old guy came up to us, shook his head, and kept on walking. I flicked him off as soon as he had his back turned.
Little kids who stared at us, then were dragged off by their mothers were constantly crowding us. It was all somewhat good until this little brat came up to me, pointing his pudgy finger and said,
"Wow! You have big creepy eyes!"
Ok, before I go on, let me explain to you something. My eyes are the type of bright blue that bulges out of my face. Sadly it sometimes tends to frighten people.
Mwhahahaha! Fear me! Anyways back to what happened.
Damn pork chop!
"Listen kid, if you only came here to make fun of me you can go take a hike to the doughnut shop."
"You sure are mean. Mean creepy eyed girl!"
This is really ceasing to amuse me.
"Ok kid, fork over the cash, or Santa's going to put you on his noddy list." I say in a low, dangerous voice.
"Mommy!" He whimpered, running away.
I saw Destiny looking at me.
"What? As strange and crazy as it may seem, I'm just not good with kids." I said putting my hands in the air.
She put her hand on my shoulder grinning. I guess, she's not angry with me.
I looked towards L and Light who now both had their backs to us. Are we really that embarrassing? No never mind, don't answer that.
I felt someone tap my shoulder. I turned around and widened my eyes.
Standing right in front of me was this 500-pound woman, with her little demon child holding onto her muumuu.
I gulped.
Scary scary oh so scary!
To the right of her was what I thought to be the stores manager. You could see that he was trying to look angry, but honestly his face seemed more amused.
"How dare you speak to my boy like that!" The large woman exclaimed.
I blinked, cocked my head to the side, and stared.
"I'm sorry ladies, but I will have to ask the two of you to return those costumes and leave the store." The manager said.
It looked like he was a little disappointed in telling us this. Did he find us entertaining?
Cool! At least someone appreciates us! I feel so loved!
"Yes sir." Destiny said.
I would have said something as well, but I was trapped in the large woman's glare. Damn! She's the scariest person I've ever met!
I felt Destiny tugging me towards the fitting rooms. Halleluiah to the Lord! I was afraid the lady was going to eat me!
"Thanks Destiny." I said.
"Sure."
Normally such a short answer from someone like her would make me think that she was angry. But the look on her face clearly said that she thought what had just happened was pretty funny. At my expense of course.
We quickly changed out of our "little helper" clothes and went back to our "look like L" attire.
I ran outside of the store, while Destiny walked normally, laughing silently. Both L and Light were standing in front of the shop. Light's eyes mocked me.
Oh, it's on pretty boy!
L's expression was unreadable to me. He looked somewhat amused and at the same time embarrassed.
"Hey." I said as I approached them.
"So did you make any money?" Light asked laughing.
Was he being a butt, or was he trying to lighten the mood? In this case it was hard to tell.
"Leave me alone." I grumbled.
Destiny was next to me by now, looking at my sad expression.
"It's ok Izzy. We'll figure something else out." She tried.
No way Destiny, I'm in full emo mode.
I walked away from them and sat down on a nearby bench. I pulled up my knees, hugging them to my chest.
Just a note, I'm not really depressed. You'll see what I'm up to soon enough
Destiny seemed to catch my vibe, and sat down next to me doing the same thing.
So picture this, two "depressed" girls and two clueless guys. What is going to happen?
"Izzy and Destiny-kun?" L started. "If the two of you really want something sweet…I'll…get you some." He said seeming to struggle at the end.
Ha-ha score!
I jumped off of the bench, hugged him and pecked him on the cheek saying,
"Thank you R! You're the best ever!"
As I started expressing my excitement to Destiny, I could see from the corner of my eye that L was holding his cheek blushing.
Aww! Hey, wait! Misa's not around yet, so that means I was the first person to kiss him! Yes! What now Misa what now?!
Anyways, Destiny and skipped merrily to a nearby candy shop, where we bought both a Twix, and a bag of Sour Straws.
Yes! My dear drug! Feed the addiction!
The four of us settled in on a large bench. (If you're curious about our seating order, from left to right it's, Light, Destiny, Me, and then L)
I tore open the Sour Straws, which Destiny, L(of course) and I shared. Light said he didn't want any. He's probably worried about getting fat.
Hehe, it would be funny to see Light fat.
Moving along, so we finished the straws in about three minutes. Then we tore open the Twix, Destiny took one and I took the other. (None for L, so sad)
-Crunch-
-Munch, munch-
"This tastes old." I said.
-Bite-
"Yeah it does." Destiny answered
-Munch-
"So….why are we still eating it?"
"….."
"…."
"I don't really know."
-Crunch-
"Ok, I can't take it anymore! Ewww!" I said throwing both Destiny's and mine in the garbage.
"Are you girls ready to continue shopping?" L asked.
"Yes." Destiny said.
"Yeah, for sure!"
End of The Mall part 1!
