KILL WITH THE EYES OF SHINIGAMI

"I can't go on in a world without Light." -- Misa Amane

As L and the few remaining Japanese police officers are busy chasing Kira, somewhere in Japan another Death Note was dropped not to a man—but to a woman.

Misa Amane, a popular celebrity girl was followed one night by a man who attempted to rape her. Suddenly, heart attack befalls the man who trailed Misa and then another notebook of death was dropped beside her. She touched the notebook without knowing what consequences will lies ahead of her upon possessing the Death Note.

The shinigami Rem appeared to Misa and the second Kira was born.

Rem explained that the notebook of death which Misa owned was the property of another death god, who died for Misa’s survival. This shinigami was known by the name Jealous and according to Rem, Jealous watched Misa for a long period of time for he had fallen in love with her. Upon realizing that Misa is in terrible danger, the shinigami decided to extend her life but the cost was death of the shinigami. But Jealous decided to sacrifice his life for the human he loved and thus the Death Note was passed to Misa.

Furthermore, Rem added about the deal between the death god and a human. With the eyes of the shinigami, human who possessed the Death Note will have another extra powers, he/she will be able to see people’s true names (if they’re using the fake one like most agents do in fear of Kira) and their life span. Additionally, a human who has the eyes of the god of death will be able to kill just by looking at the person’s face. Any human who agreed on this deal will have his/her life span reduced to half but in exchange was terrible and far greater power.

Misa accepted the deal which makes her more powerful than the original Kira.

In addition, Misa knows the existence of the first Kira and she did her best to meet Light. Somewhere she met Light and quickly recognized him with her shinigami eyes because whoever possesses the Death Note doesn’t have life span labeled when the person who has the eyes of shinigami look at them. The same was experienced by Misa.

She let Light touch her notebook and Light met shinigami Rem as well as Misa and Rem met Ryuuku and Light. The two teamed up to create the Utopia which Light dreamed.

However, L suspected that the second Kira is... Misa herself.
