You're walking down the street in the rain on your way home. On a deserted sidewalk you come a cross a black notebook lying on the ground with two words engraved on the cover:
Death Note.
You pick up the book and skim through it on your way home. Within the book is a list of rules:
The show you've been watching for ten minutes gets interrupted by "breaking news". You see a SWAT team aiming their weapons at a man who has taken a woman hostage.
The man looks as if he's lost his mind, his hand trembles as his finger waltzes with the trigger. The barrel of his gun is pointed at your mothers' head.
She looks terrified.
The news caster states the name of the maniacal man; apparently he got fired from his job and his wife walked out on him after having a seven year affair.
For no "logical" reason, you turn to the Death Note, you open a page and scribble the mans' name down with his face in your mind.
You turn to the television and suddenly your mother is no longer a hostage; apparently, her captor died of a sudden heart attack.
Long story short, do you continue to use the book? Or do you discard it forever?
If you do use it, who do you use it on?
Criminals you see on the news, or do you use it on bullies and enemies you actually know personally?
Death Note.
You pick up the book and skim through it on your way home. Within the book is a list of rules:
- The human whose name is written in this note shall die.
- This note will not take effect unless the writer has the subject's face in their mind when writing his/her name. Therefore, people sharing the same name will not be affected.
- If the cause of death is written within 40 seconds of writing the subject's name, it will happen.
- If the cause of death is not specified, the subject will simply die of a heart attack.
- After writing the cause of death, the details of the death should be written in the next 6 minutes and 40 seconds.
