searching the remains

"Exactly." She took a sip from her mug. "Now, I am the last person you'll hear quoting the Bible but here I go - Let he who hasn't sinned throw the first stone. KIRA says killing is a sin? That they should be killed for it? Well then he should be dead as well."

Ruby laughed and nodded in agreement. "Most defiantly true, maybe kira will just deal with himself and the cops can stop chasing their tails."

"KIRA? Kill himself?" She laughed. "We wish! He's an egotistical narcissistic phycopath. And yes, I will say that outloud."

"It has to be a man, no woman would be so arrogant and have such a god complex. But its a good thing Kira wont kill himself." She said with a smirk and lowered her voice. "because i want to do it."

Tsuchi smiled deviously and nodded slowly. "Is that so?"

Ruby nodded, "Indeed it is, I got a bone to pick with that fucker."

"Don't we all. But what's your story?"

"he killed a very dear friend of mine," She said and shrugged, "Simple revenge, I'm old testament like that an eye for an eye."

"Aaah. I see." Tsuchi nodded. "That makes complete sense." She smiled. "I like the way you think Ruby."

Ruby grinned, "I like the way i think too." She said with a laugh, "Do you have a bone to pick with Kira?"

Tsuchi laughed quietly then shrugged a shoulder. "Yes and no. More like a rivalry. A cousin of mine used to work with KIRA." She stressed the words 'used to'. "That's why I came to Japan in the first place, to kill her. She was already dead when I got here and I joined up with the gang that did it."

"A-HA do you are in a gang of some sort." Ruby said grinning, "Sad about you cousin, did you look though her stuff? might be able to find out clues to whom Kira is though her stuff."

Tsuchi rolled her eyes at the outburst. "Whatever. And no. Her place was ransaked. Nothing in it. They probably already searched. And the KIRA probably wasn't the same anyway. It was a couple years later."

She nodded, "Right, you seem to know a lot about Kira." She said and looked down at her hands wondering if she knew how he killed. "I have a theory about how Kira kills..." She reached into her bag and pulled out some papers she had photo copied in the library. "This was in the mythological section, there are these things called Shinigami's and they have note books called Death Notes... I think thats how Kira kills." Ruby slid the papers across the table to her.

Tsuchi flipped through the papers, not really reading them, more of just putting on a show so that she didn't seem too rude. "I know," she replied simply, laying the papers back down. "I've known for a while."

"Indeed." She said nodding thinking Tsuchi didn't take her so seriously. "Well thats just grand. How did you find out?"

She pushed a piece of hair out of her face and gave a slight shrug. "An aquantance told me a while ago. Then another aquantance and I had our suspisions confirmed about it when we tried to work with someone who wanted it."

"I see... well its nice to know i'm not crazy." She said as she lit up a smoke.

"That is always something nice to know," tsuchi replied, nodding.

"Indeed, but then again we both could be crazy." She said amused by the thought, "maybe the world is crazy."

Tsuchi laughed and leaned back in her chair. "Of course we're crazy! Of course the world is crazy!" She met the stare of a man across the room and flashed him one of her creepy smiles. He quickly left some yen on the table and left. She looked back to Ruby, the smile still on her face.

"You will haunt that mans dreams for years to come." She said laughing as the man left. "How long did it take you to prefect that look?"

Tsuchi tapped a finger on her chin, tilting her head and subsiding her smile to a normal one. "A couple years. Don't remember when I started but I had it down by 18."

Another laugh escaped her lips, "Well it gets the job done, very nice."

Tsuchi tipped an imaginary hat and laughed. "That is does, that it does. Thank you."
