Death Note Fan Fiction ❯ The Obsolete Self ❯ The Obsolete Self ( Chapter 1 )

[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]
Alex wasn’t his name any more, it was A. The mother fucking letter A. It had reminded him briefly of the ridiculous letter people in elementary school. He’d been incredulous when first told about it. About how the name his beautiful, wonderful, dead mother had given him was now something of the past.
Alex Archibald was now dead. A, the immediate successor for L, was now in his place.
He was dead. And for some reason he couldn’t be A. A was not Alex; A was an idea, an object.
A could not be alive.
And Alex was dead.
So how could he be alive if A and Alex were not?
So just who exactly was he?
