the rain poured down over the briks of the house that was my home. it was wammys orpanage. it was a lonely place were kids go when there parents are dead and noone cares about them and it was the place that i would be staying at for the next two years because i was sixteen. the landscape outside was grey adn boring, and ther was no sound coming from the room that i was in. everything was silent and i felt like crying but there was nobody there to comfort me i stood up and walked out of the room and went to the stairs. i passed a guy called mello on the way he had blonde hair and big blue eyes. he has a best friend matt. he has red hair and brown eyes that look green if you looked at them in the light. he wore a striped tshirt and mello always wore leather so they were like opposites.

i walked outo onto the grass. it was still raining and the rain came down and pierced my skin like knives it was painful but it was also beautiful. later that morning i went to class. our teacher, geroge was standing at the front giving a lecture and trying to teach us stuff but i kept getting distrated by looking out the window. ther was a man who was walking across it who had black hair and his white shirt was hanging loosly off his body which was thin. i felt my heart beat faster as i stared at him

"mello" i said as we left the class room and he looked at me as his friend matt waited. "who was that guy walking across the grounsd earlier"

"i didnt see anyone" he replied to me. a guy who had white hair walked passed then "hey near" mello said. him and near hated each other because near always beat him. "did you see anyone outside the window in class today.." near shook his head. i sighed then said "oh well. it doesnt matter. thanks anyway mello." mello nodded. "no worries." then he punched near and shot him.

i walked outside. i didnt worry abot going to the next class. it was sunnier now and i wondered if i would see that person with the black hair again. i sat down under a tree and listened as the bell rung a short distanse away. every day was the same.

"hi" i suddenly heard someone say. i turned around to stare at who it was. it was the man from before. he lookd a lot different up so close. his eyes were rimmed with dark shadows and he looked unhealthy like you could poke him and he would fall over.

"hi i said. i didnt know what else to say. my cheeks were feeling like they were on fire and i genstured my hand for him to sit on the fountain beside me.

"z isn't it?" he asked. i nodded. i wondered how he had known my alias. z was short for zeolee wynter vio'let. it was my real middle name that my mother gave to me. i didn't remember my first one anymore.

"who are you" i said back. he looked at me thoughtfully and then he stared up at the sky. i could tell that he was sad like me. "im L"

the words echoed in my mind i couldnt believe that it was really L beside me. i stared at him with my grey eyes that were like his but lighter and flecked with purple like the sunset but not as round. i really wanted to kiss him.

"z would you like to help me solve a case" he asked. i noded slowly. i wanted to. more than anything i wanted to get away from this place. "it might involve risking your life." "thats okay theres nothing that i have to live for anymore. both my parents are dead. theres no one else who would care about me if i died." "i feel the same way." it was silent between us and then he stood up and held out his hand to help me stand up too but then someone shouted out "hey ryusaki!" we both turned at the same time and it was...
