NOW! ON WITH "YOU'RE MY VITAL NEED"

Beyond Birthday™ walked with his head hidden under a black hood. He stared at the ground, blood dripping from under his sleeves onto the rain-wet pavement of the sidewalk he walked upon. A city transit bus splashed icy water up from the street he walked beside and sprayed him with the vulgar liquid. With a disgusted snarl he whipped his head around to glare at the offending machine, but it did little to please him when he saw it speeding off toward the city's inner circle. With a sigh, he turned back around and continued his walk to nowhere.

"This still doesn't make any sense to me, though. Lights? That's a completely ridiculous thing to do. A jolly old fat man is going to come down our chimney and give us all presents? Where is this logic? And does this man have a warrant to come into the house unannounced?" A kid said. She was wearing a white long sleeved shirt and baggy jeans. She wore no shoes and she wore a black wig with the hair all spiky and untamed. She looked at the boy who had a hairstyle almost matching the fag called Justin Bieber. He laughed at the performance. "You nailed that, Sayu-chan. Didn't she, Ryuuzaki?"

"Light-niisan, if Ryuuzaki is really like this, he sure is a downer on holidays." The girl, who'd been called Sayu, said to her brother.

The man who was laughing as well nodded. He had natural black hair that was untamed and spiky and for the time being he wore one of Light's button down white shirts that was short sleeve and a pair of loose-fitting black sweatpants.

"She did nail that," he said. He looked out the window and sighed. "We better get back to the Investigation HQ, Light-kun. Sayu? Mrs. Yagami, a pleasure to finally be able to meet you."

"And you as well, Ryuuzaki."

The man called Ryuuzaki smiled and looked at Sayu who was removing the wig and preparing to go take the shirt off (she'd already changed into her hot pink sweatpants). He stopped her. "You can keep the shirt if you like. Think of it as a present from me," he smiled. Sayu beamed.

"Arigato, Ryuuzaki-san! I've been wanting a white sweatshirt anyway!"

Sachiko, Light and Sayu's mother, smiled as she saw her daughter run to her room. She returned with a stuffed animal panda that had the UK flag in one paw and Ireland's flag in its other paw. No one noticed how Ryuuzaki's smile faltered for a moment at the flags.

"Here! I got these when our family went to Britain a few years ago. I got two, so you can have this one. I named it Lollipop, but you can change it if you like," Sayu explained handing the bear to Ryuuzaki. He accepted it and gave her a one armed hug. It was obvious she had a crush on him.

"Well, we'd better get going. Have a nice holiday," Ryuuzaki and Light said as they walked out of the house.

Once they were out of the house and on their way toward the train to get to the Kira HQ, Light turned to Ryuuzaki.

"Alright, L, talk to me already," Light said, jovial mood gone. L looked up at him through shadowed eyes. "Don't think I missed the tension you fell under when my sister gave you the bear with the UK flags."

"The UK…is where I witnessed the brutal slaughter of both my parents." L said, emotion springing from his usually stoic expression.

Light stared at him as they got onto the train. "W-what?" Light asked.

L nodded.

"Have you heard of someone named Quillish Wammy?" L asked.

"Of course I have. He's that incredible inventor and scientist." Light replied, wondering what the hell L was getting at by mentioning someone so out-of-the-blue.

"Look his picture up on your phone," L said simply. Light complied, only because L looked so…distraught at the mention of his parents and the UK.

"Isn't that…Watari?" Light inquired. He looked at L who was looking at the screen as well. "L…who are you?"

"It's been a while, Beyond. What brings you here?" the security guard said to the young man who had approached the wrought-iron-gothic styled fence and gate. Beyond Birthday glanced at the young woman and grinned devilishly. "I'm looking for L."

"He's on a case."

"Where?"

"What makes you think I'd tell you something like that? You hurt him, Beyond. Physically and emotionally when you last made contact with him prior to the LA cases. Not to mention Naomi Misora."

"Oh, please, spare me the fucking crap-talk about how I should hold remorse for what I did to those people. Believes Bridesmaid was just asking for what he had coming for him. Now I suggest you comply to my request as to L's whereabouts before I get really angry…Bianca Briars."

With a gasp, the woman (Bianca) started to shake. "I hear KIRA has the eyes, too," Bianca whispered angrily. "So you're not so special after-all, aren't you, Beyond."
Beyond took out a small blade and grabbed the woman by her hair. He covered her mouth and didn't flinch when she bit down on the skin in the center of his palm.

"Oh, tut tut. I was hoping I could leave this behavior behind when I got out of that incessantly questioning shrink who would visit me at the Detention Center. But I guess I haven't changed one bit. Which I'm rather glad about. Who would want to give up the life," he gripped the knife in the hand holding the hair, and exposed Bianca's neck by pulling back on her hair, causing her to yelp and release her hold on the hand covering her mouth. "that they had grown to love?" He kissed her roughly as he slit her throat. Tasting metallic in his mouth, he released and grinned as she collapsed.

"It was nice meeting you, Bianca Briars." He dragged her to the gate and laid her down on the ground, cutting open her shirt and carving Backup is En Route to Lawliet in her torso, honoring himself by writing 'BACKUP' in the fleshiest part of her body…her breasts. 'LAWLIET' was scrawled along her lower belly, from hip to hip.

"Merry Fucking Christmas, bitch," Beyond said as he watched with satisfaction as her blood began to dye the snow a brutal shade of red.

"RYUZAKI," Watari (or as Light now knew, Quillish Wammy®)'s voice came over the computer.

"Yes?" Ryuzaki replied. Light and him had just arrived at the KIRA HQ. Ryuzaki took his jacket off and threw it on the couch. He was still wearing the short sleeve white button down shirt that Light had let him borrow. He'd since changed into his baggy jeans.

"WE HAVE AN EMERGENCY CALL FROM THE HOUSE," Watari said urgently. He didn't realize that Light was in the room. He'd been so frantic and panicked from the news himself that he was only concentrating on L. L hadn't missed the fact that he'd spoken of Wammy's House Orphanage in Light's presence, which meant that he hadn't seen or noticed Light was in the room.
Light hadn't missed that fact either, however he only knew that Watari had spoken of 'the house' which he didn't understand. He figured it was probably related to L's past…which he had yet to unearth from his secretive behavior.

"Alright. Please play it," L said, uncaring of what Light heard at this point.

The screen turned black, but a new logo appeared. It had the infamous W that stood for WATARI to the task force, but it had other letters with it. It said in bold letters:

The

Wammy's House™

Emergency Messaging System

A voice masked by a heavy voice synthesizer spoke to them from the screen. It said in a rather breathless and panicky voice: HE'S BACK. I DON'T KNOW HOW IT IS POSSIBLE. HE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE DETAINED THERE FOR AT LEAST A DECADE AND A HALF MORE. BUT HE WAS JUST HERE. THE PICTURES ATTACHED TO THIS FILE ARE PROOF OF THIS, ALTHOUGH WE DO NOT KNOW EXACTLY WHO THE PERSON MENTIONED IN THE GRUESOME LACERATIONS IS. WE ARE GUESSING EITHER AN ARCH RIVAL OR A LOVER, BUT THE MAIN PROBLEM IS THAT BACKUP IS BACK. IF YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS, YOU'LL UNDERSTAND WHY I SAY HIDE THE JAM IF YOU DON'T WANT HIM FINDING YOU! PLEASE TAKE CAUTION!

Light was confused out of his mind to say the least. Hide the Jam…Backup is back…lover…WAMMY'S HOUSE…

He cleared his throat and stopped himself from speaking when he saw how badly L was shaking. He reached out, but before he could put a hand on L's shoulder L collapsed to his knees, shaking uncontrollably.

"L? L! WATARI! WHAT DO I DO!" Light cried to the screen. Watari had just sent the pictures, which was what must've caused L to collapse.

Light saw the gruesome photograph of the woman's lacerated body…her eyes forever frozen in a gaze that showed betrayal, confusion, and outright anger.

"N-no. Watari I'm fine. Thank you for the information…" L said shakily. Light put his arms around L and hugged him. L leaned into the touch, much to Light's surprise. L didn't seem like he had or wanted any human contact…

"Watari was speaking of the orphanage where I was brought when I was eight. Did you ever read about the person who stopped WW3 from happening?"

"Wasn't it some kid?"

"Did that kid have a name?"

"They said it was an undisclosed name that…wait…don't tell me you were that kid…" Light said at the man in his arms.

L smiled almost shyly. "Yes. I was. But that resulted in a rather angry group of people who had gotten money for bombing London, which is where I grew up until I was 7, and in revenge to me for stopping it, they raped and killed my mother right in front of my eyes. They restrained me, and forced me to watch as they tortured her before killing her. My father was killed when the men burst into the house. They'd grabbed my mother, and shot my father when he came at them. I was on the street for a while, until one of the police recognized me from the council room where I'd stopped the outbreak of World War 3 and phoned a man who I now know was Quillish Wammy. I did not know it at the time but Watari had actually begun to have orphanages built all around the world. But the main and first one was built in Winchester, England, which I where I was taken after the police took me off the streets and gave custody over me to Watari. At the orphanage, I was educated only on the points that I did not know. You can guess what they do at those orphanages, can't you?"

"W-ell, from the sound of it, these orphanages are not ordinary orphanages. They work to groom these kids who have enormous deductive skills and logic potential to be your successor, don't they." Light guessed; it was not a question-tone at the end. It was almost an accusing tone, but it was not meant nor seen as one.

L nodded. "And this is why I want you to be my immediate successor should anything happen to me."

"Ryuzaki, you know I don't like hearing you talk like that."

"But it needs to be said. There's likely a chance that KIRA will kill me sooner or later."

"But I won't let that happen, Ryuzaki. Now; can you tell me about this picture? Do you know who that Law-lee-et person is?"

L chuckled softly, the sound confusing but amusing Light. It was a soft and almost carefree sound, and it was so ironic but so soothing to hear L laugh like that.

"Law-lee-et…yes I guess it would look like that to anyone who didn't know how to pronounce it properly."

"So you do know who this person is," Light said in relief. L nodded.

"Oh, I know him quite well actually. So well, in fact, that it's almost like we're the same person altogether," L said. "It's pronounced in Japanese as Ro-Raito. And in English is pronounced as Low-Light."

Light's eyes widened.

"Your last name?"he guessed.

"The very one," L said, feeling like he'd signed his own death wish.

"L! WHAT ARE YOU DOING!" Watari's voice roared through the speakers in fear and confusion.

"Perhaps the stupidest thing I've ever done, Watari."

"L Lawliet. That's your full name?"

"Do not ask me about my one letter first name, because in reality, I don't even know the story behind it. You'd think that it was just an alias, but it is not."

Light couldn't help but stifle his laughter. But at L's smile of permission, they both began to laugh.

L was the one to stop first. "So…I guess this concludes our friendship then. I only ask that you do not tell people my name after you write it down in your Notebook."

"Wait..what?"

"Don't try to hide the fact that you are KIRA anymore, Light-kun. I know for a fact that Higuchi was not the only one who had a notebook on this earth. We asked Rem remember?"

"Yeah…but…Ryuzaki…I told you already. I'm going to do everything I can to protect you from dying," Light said. And he truly meant it. Even after getting his memory back, he still wanted to protect L. Why? He couldn't answer that, even if someone asked, because he didn't know why himself. The first idea was because L was just too similar to him in the way he thought and it was nice to have someone else he could intellectually converse with daily. Being handcuffed to L wasn't half bad…except for the fact they had to sleep together during that time, but then…thinking back on it?…Light hadn't really minded that either. In fact, the night after being handcuffed together, he found himself wishing that L was going to follow him to the room and sit in his crouch again and type on the computer while he tried to sleep because he just liked having someone there with him...no. That wasn't right. He liked having L there with him. And the thought confused him. He was hetero, wasn't he? He'd always been hetero, even during that awkward phase that almost every teen goes thru when they go thru puberty, when they start observing their bodies and start wondering if everyone else's looked the same. But, looking at it seriously, Light hadn't really gone through that phase. He'd either been too busy reading and studying or he had girls fawning over him…and in doing that had prevented him from even looking at other guys. And now…L was here. And he had to admit, even in L's normal clothes L wasn't unattractive. In fact, he was probably the next most attractive one there next to Light. And Light was hard to beat in a contest of attractiveness.

L smiled slightly. "I...I appreciate that...a lot actually. Thank you...Light-kun."

Light smiled and hugged L again, his mind racing. Why am I feeling this way so suddenly!

Little by little, he felt the familiar presence coming closer until finally he shot up in bed, breathing heavily. Bed? When was the last time I slept in a bed? The detective thought. He looked around, and saw Light sitting on the chair by the door, sleeping.

"Light-kun?" L called, sitting up.

Light stirred slightly in his sleep. L grinned. He threw a pillow at Light and then flopped back down instantly.

"*SNORT* WAIT-WHA-? HUH! WHAT'S...!" Light cried, discombobulated and obviously frazzled. He saw the pillow and saw L.

Has he forgotten that I'm his same level of brainpower? Light thought amusedly. He walked over to the bed and put a hand on L's shoulder, pushing him so that he turned onto his back.

"Merry Christmas, L," he whispered seductively before he brought his lips to L's.

L was in shock. He was not expecting this. Of all things Light-kun could do...why this? But he decided he'd ask in the morning. For now he was going to enjoy this while it lasted.

Beyond Birthday walked from the gate of the flight he'd just gotten off of. A one-way flight from London, England to Tokyo, Japan. Now he just had a few days' walk till he got to the Kanto Region of Japan.

Walk? Pfft. Right. Real likely...let me see here... Beyond thought as he bent a needle into a jagged shape. He looked around the street and then poked at the car handle. Nothing happened. It was open...he sat in the driver's seat and looked around again. Nobody was coming. He stuck the needle into the key-ignition and revved the engine. Perfect, he thought. He got out and looked at the license plate closely. A loose nail on the front and only two on the back. Too simple, he smirked.

He drove the car into the back of an alley, and got out, taking a forgotten hammer from the abandoned construction site in the back of the alley and banging at the license plate. He took the plates off and made quick work of changing the B into an 8 and the J into a zero, the P into an R and the 7 into a 9 on both. Quickly nailing them back in, he got back into the car and drove toward the Kanto Region. He'd abandon the car there, and dispose of the plates.

He made better time than he'd been expecting. With a smile a murderer would wear (go figure) Beyond got out of the car, trashed it, burned the license plates and ran toward the nearest department store. He needed to change his clothes.

He bought a dark blue long sleeve shirt and white jeans. He also got a grey zip-up hoodie and contacts.

"Wow. Why are you getting new contacts? The red ones you're wearing look so real!" the clerk-girl said when she started ringing Beyond's purchases up. Beyond smiled sweetly at her.

"Oh. Thank you," he cooed sickly sweet. The girl didn't seemed bothered by the fake and overdone act...in fact, she felt it seemed genuine. Blonde teenage girls are so...disgusting.

Once he got out of the store, he ran to the nearest motel and changed into his disguise. He decided against the contacts for now...they always bothered his eyes.

"Excuse me, sir. You have to check in if you want to stay in a room," a woman scolded.

"Screw you, ma'am." Beyond said politely walking out and never turning back.

"So…who is Backup, then, L?" Light asked once L and he had stopped kissing. They sat on the couch together, drinking hot chocolate (for L, it was just another sugary drink to help his brain-wheels keep turning) and watching an old favorite of both boys'...BOONDOCK SAINTS.

L turned and shivered. "H-he was one of my successors. But his mind went corrupt. He was responsible for the killings in the LA BB Murder Cases. BB stands for Beyond Birthday, which is his real name. But he was known as Backup. Although, he didn't like it when I told him that Near, Mello, and Matt were also going to be in the successor lineup. Jealousy, I suppose you'd call it. But it was more than that. It was the hunger for the power that I had, the 'fame' that the Great L possesses. In anger and rage, he ran away from Wammy's House, graduating the courses that would need to be graduated before lining up for my choosing. For a few years we never heard nor saw from him...but then he came up again. He'd been killing in those years we hadn't heard from him. But we began hearing quite a lot from him once LA began drowning in blood." L sighed and put his hot chocolate down, standing up and walking to the window, looking out at the silent night that was so peaceful with the snow steadily coming down. "I feel like it's partially my fault that all those innocent people died...that if only I'd taken him more seriously when he threatened like that...I-I feel like...it's just..." He bit his lip. "And they call me a 'protector' and a 'detective'. Hah!," he laughed bitterly.

Light stood up and put his arms around L's waist, kissing him under his ear and in the nook where his jawline lifted to his ear. He sighed contentedly. "You're not at fault, here, Ryuzaki. Beyond Birthday is just a freak who lost his mind with the power he possessed."

L stiffened in Light's hold at those words. "Y-you still don't understand. Beyond Birthday...possessed the Shinigami Eyes. From the moment he was born, he had those eyes. That's how he knew all those people's names. The label 'serial killer' usually means that the killer had a motive for those he or she killed...the victims all had something in common."

"The LA BB Murder Cases were all notable and unique because everyone of those victims had a first and last name that started with the same letter...more specifically, people who had a first and last name starting with the letter B...and he could see those names because he had the eyes..." Light suddenly put it all together.

"Exactly...and he was the only one of my heirs who actually knew my name before Watari and I trusted them enough to tell them. He used it against me...he came up with this G0d awful nickname 'lawlipop' because he didn't know exactly how to pronounce it, either. I never bothered telling him he was saying it wrong. But he eventually found out, I suppose, since he once called me Ro-Raito when we came to Japan on a Wammy's Boys Vacation," L smiled at the memory. But it faded rather quickly. "It was the first time he'd killed something and come back with this crazed look in his eyes, a razor in one hand and the body of a stray cat in his other. Watari reprimanded him for killing it, but he didn't look apologetic in the least. In fact, he offered the cat to me and said that we could coat it in chocolate and Strawberry jam and make a right feast out of it...but that only made me sick to my stomach."

"I don't think I've ever seen you eat anything other than sweets and fruit." Light said, trying to stop the shivering that was coursing through L's body in his arms.

"Oh, no. I eat quite a lot of red meat, actually. Just never in your or many other people's presence. And I happen to enjoy fillet and Mongolian beef ramen."

Light smiled. He turned L to face him and brought their lips together before he said, "Then let's go have a Christmas feast right now. You and me. We can go get ramen and burgers and turkey and have a right old feast. Christmas dinner is supposed to be huge. And you know what comes after dinner, right?"

L's eyes lit up comically. "Dessert?"

"The biggest any normal person has ever seen, which won't seem like a lot to you, but to me, I'll need to excersize for hours to get that fat off."

L smiled. "Can we go?"

"Whenever you're ready, Ryuzaki."

Beyond couldn't believe how stupid L was. Did that guy really believe that he could hide from him? Beyond snickered. He saw Matsuda walking around, and his body-lingo nearly REEKED that he was investigating with the world's top detective...just something about the way he carried himself screamed "I'M WORKING ON A TOP SECRET MISSION BECAUSE I'M JUST THAT IMPORTANT OF AN UNPAID INTERN! GO ME!"

Matsuda, huh? Beyond thought, biting his thumb nail in a very L-like fashion. Matsuda...must be an idiot.

Matsuda; he either had ESP or just knew when someone's brain was thinking that because he noticeably stiffened and looked around slightly before going back to walking around the park with Misa-Misa.

Beyond smirked. He walked up to them and smiled. "Hey, there," he said smiling at Misa. "Aren't you that model? Amane Misa?"

"Yup!" she giddily laughed. "Are you a fan?"

"Oh, I'm probably your biggest fan ever! You're absolutely gorgeous. Whoever you're dating is probably the luckiest guy in the world."

Misa grinned unnaturally wide. "OMG! You're the SWEETEST guy on EARTH!"

Beyond was taken aback. He quickly regained his composure. "May I have your autograph, Miss Amane?"

"Oh, please. Call me Misa. And sure!"

"Sweet! Sign my sweatshirt, yeah?" He held out his arm. Misa scrawled her signature on the entire right sleeve with the silver marker.

"There ya go!" she smiled sweetly. She kissed his cheek and laughed. "Oh, Ryuzaki. Did you really think you could fool me?"
Ah ha! I got them! Beyond laughed. He was glad he'd decided to put those contacts in that made his eyes black. He'd even put a bit of dark grey eyeshadow beneath his eyes to make the signature shadows that he recalled L had.

"I guess I can't fool you guys. But I must inquire...I've never been to this park before. Can you direct me to the Headquarters from here?"

"Sure thing, Ryu-kun! It's across the street and to the left!" Misa said excitedly. Matsuda was staring hard at Beyond, trying to figure out how he couldn't get Misa this excited when he was with her.

"Thanks. Merry Christmas, you two!" he said waving and running off toward the HQ.

This is just way too simple. Beyond smirked mentally.

"Oh, wow. For the first time ever, I'm Stuffed!" L laughed as he leaned back in his chair. Light smiled.

"Wow. I've never seen you not finish what's on your plate before, L."

"Ugh. I think i'm having a food baby*," L groaned. Light burst into laughter with L.

"Ok, honestly, why can't you be this loose all the time, L?"

"Because it's important that i remain in my facade of being ever-stoic and dis-postured. Though i have shown my face, i still need to keep SOME things about me a secret."

"A man of eternal mystery, aren't you?" Light smiled nuzzling into the crook of L's neck.

"Mmm, nope. I'm the one who solves them," L smartly replied, burying his fingers in Light's hair and pulling his head back so he could capture his lips with his.

L's phone buzzed and he looked at the screen. With an almost dissappointed look, he answered. "Yes? What? No...what-right now? Oh. Oh...yes those. I forgot...well no one said you had to-ok. I understand. Yes, I'll be there in a moment. Thank you Watari."

L hung up and grabbed his jacket. He looked at Light, who was pouting comically. "You have to leave?"

"I'll be back before Christmas day, AKA tomorrow morning, I promise, Light-kun. Oh, and by the way," L leaned in a kissed Light on the forehead. "remind me to tell Watari not to keep such a close eye on our room from now on."

L walked out of the building with Watari, who held the door for him. L got in the back and waited for Watari to close the door. But he lingered...noticing the look on L's face.

"L? Is something the matter?"

"Hmm? Oh. Uh...well. Yes, Watari. I fear I am feeling...quite strangely."

"Are you ill?"

"Oh. No. It's nothing like that. It's merely that...well...do you recall the incident in Brooklyn a few months ago? When the cop was found snogging with the prime suspect of a hit and run?"

"Yes. I do. Why?"

"I fear i may be following in that cop's footsteps and it's greatly unsettling."

Watari sighed and walked around the car after closing the door, settling in the driver's seat and beginning to drive to the Wammy's House that was located in Japan. "I wouldn't worry too heavily on that wager, L."

"I would," L muttered. Watari held back a gasp when he noticed that L wasn't sitting in his perch; his back was straight, however leaned a little to the side to lean on the door, where his elbow rested on the window-ledge, his chin in his hand, looking out at the snow falling lazily onto the ground. his feet were on the ground, legs lazily spread, left arm resting lazily on the middle-arm-rest in the back seat. (A/N: I LIKE THE DESCRIPTION OF LAZILY. GIVES THAT ALL-AROUND TEENAGER-ISH MENTAL IMAGE OF A TEEN SITTING IN ANY CHAIR/SEAT/CAR EVEN THOUGH L IS 23 ~END A/N~) "I most definitley am."

Beyond Birthday had watched as L and Watari left the building. He grinned maliciously. He'd noticed the almost disheartened expression on L's features as he'd left. What are you hiding in that building, Lawlipop?

Waiting until the car was well out of sight, meaning his entrance to the building would go unnoticed, Beyond made his way through the snow to the building.

"PLEASE ENTER YOUR IDENTIFICATION INFORMATION" the computerized voice prompted. Beyond rolled his eyes.

"Fuck you," he said in the same accent of the computer.

"PLEASE TRY AGAIN"

"Screw you," he argued.

"PLEASE TRY AGAIN"

"Ass-rape yourself, you damned robot," he spat.

"PLEASE TRY AGAIN"

"Oh, fuck you," he groaned, jumping the panel and walking to the next obstacle.

The metal detector.

He threw his knives, his change, his wallet chain and his shades into the box and walked through. He got the green check of approval on the screen.

He retrieved his things and put them back in his pockets, proceeding into the elevator.

"I wonder what he's hiding in here," Beyond smirked.

The doors opened and he laid his eyes on someone who looked just like...

"Matt?"

"Matt?" Beyond blurted out before he could stop himself. No. He should've looked at the name before he'd spoken. this wasn't Matt...or Mail Jeevas...but if he'd been wearing goggles, smoking a cigarette, wearing gloves and that ridiculous striped shirt and trench-vest, this guy could have been Matt's twin. But this guy's name was Moon Yagami...but it was pronounced Light.

"Wha-?" Light, startled, jumped in his seat and turned around. His stomach had clenched and his heart had skipped a beat. Watari and L were both gone until tomorrow morning, and Misa and Matsuda were busy out of the area on the set of the movie with Hideki Ryuuga. They wouldn't be back until the day after christmas, and the rest of the Task Force were at home for the holidays.

He turned and saw... "L? What are you doing here? I thought you and Watari wouldn't be back until tomorrow?"

Beyond growled silently but maintained a small smile. "I convinced Watari to let me stay here for Christmas eve."

Light smiled and laughed softly. "You just wanted an excuse to stay with me on Christmas eve, huh? And for someone who doesn't even believe in religion...you never fail to amaze me, L...which is probably why I've fallen for you so completely."

Beyond's stomach churned in his torso. This disgusting bloke had been kissing HIS Lawlipop? He smirked and strode over to Light.

"I just couldn't stand to leave you here all alone, Light," Beyond said as he leaned over Light and kissed him on the forehead, inwardly grimacing.

Light pushed away. He hadn't missed the fact that "L" hadn't said "-kun" after his name, which was something that L always, almost deliberatley it seemed, added to his name.

"What's wrong, Light?" Beyond asked, still smiling, keeping a firm hold on Light's shoulders, disabling Light's ability to move.

"Y-you're not L...L never forgets to say Light-KUN," Light spoke in English (rather fluently...any one who didn't know Light would think he was English with the way he spoke so perfectly...although they'd think English since he hung around L and Watari so often and had picked up the English accent quite fluently)

Beyond smirked. "Oh, pity. I thought I'd fooled you. Oh well. Do you know who I am?"

"A sick sadist?" Light inquired, still speaking English.

Beyond's smirk vanished and was replaced by a psychotic smile. "In a sense, you could say that."

Light shivered and tried to shrink away from Beyond's he couldn't move an inch.

"What do you want?" Light shakily asked.

Beyond smirked and leaned down, licking Light's jaw all the way up to his eyebrow. "To see what that detective sees in you," Beyond growled. He straddled Light's lap and sat on his thighs, his hardening crotch grinding into Light's stomach."And to steal what he wants before he can get it."

"H-hey...c-c'mon man...it's Christmas eve...you don't really want to do that now do you?"

"As you said, I don't believe in religion. At least...my mentor doesn't, and therefore I, his ex-successor, don't either."

Light couldn't even think straight. He knew what was about to happen. And he wasn't looking forward to that...he was still trying to figure out a way to escape when he was brutally thrown to the ground. His belt was taken off and was wrapped tightly around his wrists which were above his head. His shirt was pulled open roughly, buttons flying off into the darkness, their only giveaway of existence was the sound of them rolling and bouncing on the floor until they stopped. Beyond worked quickly, licking Light's torso. Light groaned in obvious disgust at this feeling. When Beyond began to pull his pants off, Light screamed.

Beyond growled. "Shut up, you Bieber-haired Jap."

Light's eyes narrowed. "Bieber-hair? I had this hair before that fag!"

"Hmm. So why do you insist on keeping it then? Is it because you're a fag too?"

Light yelped when Beyond inserted a finger into his virgin entrance. He began to sob when this L look-alike began to thrust three fingers in and out.

When Light heard a zipper, he began to retch. "Please don't! No! Please stop! I don't want this! I don't WANT THIS!"

"Oh, shut up." Beyond snapped as he thrust in.

Blood. Pain. Cold. Hands. Thrust. Thrust. Sobs. Screams. Terror. Shaking. Retching.

The things that Light had thought he was safe from...it was all happening. And there was no way to make it cease. He could feel blood at his inner thighs and began to cry even harder.

When Beyond finally climaxed inside of him, he almost threw up from the sheer disgust that he felt. Beyond began to pump Light's forcefully hardened member and Light shrieked, "No! I DON'T WANT TO! I DON'T WANT TO! STOP!" only to cry in shame and disgust at his own weakness to bodily reaction. He fell to the floor, limp, breathing hard and laboured, blood still slick on his inner thighs and his entrance. His hands were bound.

When Beyond took a knife out of his pocket, light's eyes widened in terror. "P-please don't...please...i'm begging you...please don't hurt me...don't hurt me again...please..." Light choked through tears and shaking. He pushed himself against the wall.

The knife was at his forehead. For a moment, Light thought he was going to die there, a knife stuck through his skull to puncture his brain. But instead he felt the knife disappear to make way for the pocket-knife scissors.

"I can't stand to think that I was brought to climax by Justin Fucking Bieber."

Light couldn't stop shaking as his hair was cut.

"But you still make me sick."

Light's world went black.

The next morning, L jogged into the building, too excited to see Light to even care that he'd set the alarm off. Watari shoook his head with a small smile at how utterly different L was from his usually composed self at the thought of seeingn Light. Watari turned off the alarm and joined L in the elevator. HE stole a quick glance at L; he had a slight hint of red on his face from the cold of the snow, but he had no more rings under his eyes...which were now showing more blue than before because his pupils weren't so large anymore. He had a smile plastered on his face, making them shine, and he was now a normal complexion. He'd been straightening his back to a more normal slouch and now looked nothing less than a normal person.

"Excited to see Light, Ryuzaki?"

"Is it that obvious?"L smiled at Watari.

The doors opened...and all that jolliness of Christmas morning vanished when L saw Light's crumpled form in the corner underneath the glass stairs.

Written in strawberry jam on the wall behind Light was "MERRY CHRISTMAS, MENTOR"
