“I suppose we have to speak English all of the time now,” Sayu hadn’t said anything for a good week so the sudden whisper of her angst ridden voice made Light Yagami jump in surprise. He looked over at his sister and nodded, answering her in Japanese.
“Yeah, we do. But only at school, for the most part anyway. We can still sp-“ He was cut off.
”But I’m bad at English! It’s going to suck here!” She burst out. Their driver flinched. He was a little confused as to why he was driving two Asian teenagers to a school like Wammy’s. He’d never seen anyone but snobby rich kids enter that place. He cleared his throat but Sayu took no notice and Light gave him a narrow glare out of the corner of his eye.
“Light, I miss he-“
“Don’t bring that up,” Light sneered coolly. He didn’t want to hear about the reason they were in England in the first place. Sayu, he thought bitterly despite himself, this is entirely your fault. He was already missing his old boring high school, though he never once dreamed that that could happen. He even missed the girls, the ones who were desperate to catch his attention. It had been all so annoying and time wasting back then, but now that he was forced to travel half way around the world just to keep his sister in check, he couldn’t have wanted that life more.
Despite his cool exterior, Light felt he wasn’t ready for such a change, and cursed his parents for thinking this was the right thing to do. But not as much as he cursed Sayu, whose surprise love affair back in Japan had cost him his boring but now appreciated lifestyle.
“We’re here,” The cabdriver announced snapping Light out of his little sulk.
“Sayu, out. Now,” She hesitated for a moment before shuffling her small frame out of the car. She could tell by her brother’s icy disposition that he was upset with her. She hated when he was upset because it was the first time in a long time that she knew it was her fault.
“We should probably find the headmaster’s office first… Oh and start speaking in English,” Light thought aloud. He watched as a stream of students entered a big castle like building. St Wammiths Province High School, the most prestigious school this side of the world. Or so the brochure had said. While his eyes gazed over the grand white granite structure he felt a tug at his sleeve. It was Sayu.
“Light, someone is walking towards us…” She said quietly in Japanese.
”English, Sayu, English,” He reminded her. She drew closer to him, as an elderly gentleman with a soft smile and snow white hair approached them.
“Sayu and Light Yagami, it’s a pleasure to welcome you to St Wammiths,” He paused and held out his hand which Light took with a slight hesitation and bowed. “My name is Quillsh Wammy, the headmaster of your new school,” He smiled past Light to Sayu who was inching further and further behind her brother’s back.
“Sayu, if you would come with me I shall introduce you to your new homeroom teacher and class,” Sayu didn’t move. Light could feel her clenching hands tighten on his blazer so he moved to the side. He had never seen her so afraid or shy before. Leaving Japan had really sucked the life out of the Sayu that he had grown up with.
“Come along Sayu, it’s all right,” A surprise to both Sayu and Light, Mr. Wammy had spoken in Japanese. This considerably encouraged Sayu. Finally she nodded her head and Quillsh Wammy smiled.
“Light, I have a student representative from your class coming to meet you… He is a little late…” Light noticed that the old man was slightly annoyed by this, “but he should be here soon. Have a good day Yagami-san,” And with that he turned with Sayu, and Light watched as they disappeared behind great mahogany doors.
Whoever this representative was, Light wished they would hurry up and get there. It was cold, and he hated the cold.

L had slept in. It was a bad day to sleep in. An incredibly bad day. He had stayed up late into the morning writing songs, refreshing his guitar skills and creating fliers for the auditions. He forgot that he wasn’t an insomniac anymore. Those days were behind him. He liked a good sleep nowadays, but sometimes, he just forgot, and this was one of those times.
The clock read ten to eight. Class started in ten minutes. Damn it, why hadn’t his dad woken him up? Probably to teach me a lesson, he thought bitterly. Well no helping it now. Within four minutes, L had showered (a wet cloth rubbed vigorously over his body with one hand while brushing his teeth with the other) eaten breakfast (a donut and cold sweet tea from the night before) gotten dressed (his tie untied and his shirt inside out) and was out the door, guitar strapped to his back, running down the street. Lucky he lived so close to his school; otherwise he would have been in real trouble.
There was something he had to do this morning… what was it? He thought hard for a moment while trying to smooth out his hair. So involved with his hair and trying to remember what he had forgotten, he didn’t notice bumping a tall Asian student. The student in question was so caught by surprise that he spun around and lost his chance to yell at the black haired attacker who was already entering the building.
The bell sounded, L had just made it in time for class. Light Yagami was forty minutes late to class, which was no surprise. He had to navigate and check almost every room to find the correct one.
When he entered the room and apologized for being late, the teacher asked him to introduce himself. As he stood before the class, he brushed his hair out of his eyes and gave a smile.
“Hello, my name is Light Yagami, and I have transferred from Tokyo, Japan with my sister,” He gave a bow, “It’s a pleasure to meet you all.”
L had just remembered what he had forgotten. He was meant to guide the new student around this morning. Now he was in for it. As Light Yagami walked to the vacant seat in front of him their eyes met. L gave a nervous smile while Light, who recognized L as his ‘attacker’, gave him an icy glare, and suddenly L’s heart skipped a beat, but he wasn’t sure if it was out of fear or something else entirely.
Near, who sat left of L looked over at his friend with a concerned frown.
“L,” he whispered, “Is something wrong?”
“… No,” He said without breaking eye contact with Light, “I wouldn’t say wrong…”
